Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

f(g(2)) means "put 2 into g(x) and then take that answer and put it into f(x)"

Given:

f(x)=4x^3-x^2+1

and

g(x)=x-1

Now, let's find g(2) first:

g(x) = x - 1

g(2) = 2 - 1

g(2) = 1

Now, lets put this into f(x). So we have:

f(x)=4x^3-x^2+1\\f(1) = 4(1)^2 - (1)^2 +1\\f(1) =4

That is f(g(2)) = 4

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

7610 m

Step-by-step explanation:

600m = 600m

7km = 7000m

1000cm = 10m

The required distance = 600 + 7000 + 10 = 7610 m

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

She will ride an average of 5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the average, add all the values together and divide by the amount of values:

3 + 5 + 4 + 8 = 20

20 ÷ 4 = 5

Average of 5 miles

A cup slides off a 2.5 m high table with a speed of 2.8 m/s to the right. We can ignore air resistance. What was the cup's horiz
azamat

Answer:

Horizontal distance = 1.98 m (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height = 2.5 m

Speed v = 2.8 m/s

Find:

Horizontal displacement

Computation:

s = ut + (1/2)gt²

2.5 = (1/2)(9.8)t²

t² = 0.5102

t = 0.7079 s

Horizontal distance = (v)(t)

Horizontal distance = (2.8)(0.7079)

Horizontal distance = 1.98 m (Approx)

4.One attorney claims that more than 25% of all the lawyers in Boston advertise for their business. A sample of 200 lawyers in B
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

z=\frac{0.315 -0.25}{\sqrt{\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{200}}}=2.123  

p_v =P(Z>2.123)=0.0169  

The p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of lawyers had used some form of advertising for their business is significantly higher than 0.25 or 25% .  

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation  

n=200 represent the random sample taken

X=63 represent the lawyers had used some form of advertising for their business

\hat p=\frac{63}{200}=0.315 estimated proportion of lawyers had used some form of advertising for their business

p_o=0.25 is the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level

Confidence=95% or 0.95

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

p_v represent the p value (variable of interest)  

2) Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that more than 25% of all the lawyers in Boston advertise for their business:  

Null hypothesis:p\leq 0.25  

Alternative hypothesis:p > 0.25  

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:  

z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}} (1)  

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion \hat p is significantly different from a hypothesized value p_o.

3) Calculate the statistic  

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:  

z=\frac{0.315 -0.25}{\sqrt{\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{200}}}=2.123  

4) Statistical decision  

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The significance level provided \alpha=0.05. The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(Z>2.123)=0.0169  

The p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of lawyers had used some form of advertising for their business is significantly higher than 0.25 or 25% .
