Child Health and Development Studies (CHDS) has been collecting data about expectant mothers in Oakland, CA since 1959. One of t

he measurements taken by CHDS is the weight increase (in pounds) for expectant mothers in the second trimester. In a fictitious study, suppose that CHDS finds the average weight increase in the second trimester is 14 pounds. Suppose also that, in 2015, a random sample of 40 expectant mothers have mean weight increase of 16 pounds in the second trimester, with a standard deviation of 6 pounds. At the 5% significance level, we can conduct a one-sided T-test to see if the mean weight increase in 2015 is greater than 14 pounds. Statistical software tells us that the p-value = 0.021
Which of the following is the most appropriate conclusion?

a. There is a 2.1% chance that a random sample of 40 expectant mothers will have a mean weight increase of 16 pounds or greater if the mean second trimester weight gain for all expectant mothers is 14 pounds.
b. There is a 2.1% chance that mean second trimester weight gain for all expectant mothers is 14 pounds in 2015.
c. There is a 2.1% chance that mean second trimester weight gain for all expectant mothers is 16 pounds in 2015.
d. There is 2.1% chance that the population of expectant mothers will have a mean weight increase of 16 pounds or greater in 2015 if the mean second trimester weight gain for all expectant mothers was 14 pounds in 1959.

He gets 20 at the start, just for signing up, so he needs only 20 now.

If he gets 2.5 points for each visit, after 8 days he will have been given 20 more points, allowing him to get a free movie ticket.

6 times a number is 27 less than the square of that number. Find the positive solution.
Verdich [7]

Let x = your number.

6x = x^2 - 27. Subtract 6x from each side.

0 = x^2 - 6x - 27. Factor

0 = (x-9) (x+3). Set each term equal to zero

(x+3) = 0. Subtract 3 from each side.

x = -3. This is the negative solution.

(x-9) = 0. Add 9 to each side.

x = 9. This is the positive solution.

What is the y-value of the vertex of the function f(x)=−(x−3)(x+11)? −8 −4 33 49
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

y - value of the vertex is 49.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function is f(x) = -(x - 3)(x + 11)

f(x) = -(x² - 3x + 11x - 33)

     = -(x² + 8x - 33)

     = -(x² + 8x + 16 - 49)

     = -[(x + 4)² - 49]

     = -(x + 4)² + 49

Comparing this equation with the vertex form of a quadratic function,

f(x) = -(x - h)² + k

Where (h, k) is the vertex of the function.

Vertex of the parabola is (-4, 49)

Therefore, y-value of the vertex is 49.
