A ball is hurled in the air such that its horizontal (x) and vertical (y) shifts are given by the functions x(t) = 20t and y(t)

= 40t − 5t2, where x and y are in meters and the time t is in seconds. What is the ratio of y to x at time t = 5 seconds?

x(t) = 20t

y(t) = 40t - 5t^2

Since we are only interested in comparing the two at time t = 5 seconds, we plug in 5 everywhere we see the variable t and then compare x and y

x(5) = 20(5) becomes x(5) = 100

y(5) = 40(5) - 5(5)^2 becomes y(5) = 200 - 125 and then y(5) = 75

The ratio of y to x can be expressed as: y/x, so we can say the ratio is equal to 75/100 or 0.75

Answer: 0.75

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question is

e. If is likely that between 35% and 41% percent of the driving population would be willing to pay higher gas prices to protect the environment.

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error expresses the number of percentage points of error is contained within  survey result. A large error margin therefore reduces the level of dependence on a given statistic. The margin of error describes the expected variation between the statistic sample and the real population value.

In the question, the option

e. If is likely that between 35% and 41% percent of the driving population would be willing to pay higher gas prices to protect the environment , clearly depicts the definition of margin of error as it shows the expected variance from te real population

omeli [17]

Answer:

10x^2 - 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 2 times 2x will equal the area of 'Potatoes.'

5x times 2x is 10x^2.

2 times 2x is 4x.

I cannot provide an exact value because x hasn't been identified.

I hope this helps.

An instructor who taught two sections of engineering statistics last term, the first with 25 students and the second with 35, de
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

a) P=0.1721

b) P=0.3528

c) P=0.3981

Step-by-step explanation:

This sampling can be modeled by a binominal distribution where p is the probability of a project to belong to the first section and q the probability of belonging to the second section.

a) In this case we have a sample size of n=15.

The value of p is p=25/(25+35)=0.4167 and q=1-0.4167=0.5833.

The probability of having exactly 10 projects for the second section is equal to having exactly 5 projects of the first section.

This probability can be calculated as:

P=\frac{n!}{(n-k)!k!}p^kq^{n-k}= \frac{15!}{(10)!5!}\cdot 0.4167^5\cdot0.5833^{10}=0.1721

b) To have at least 10 projects from the 2nd section, means we have at most 5 projects for the first section. In this case, we have to calculate the probability for k=0 (every project belongs to the 2nd section), k=1, k=2, k=3, k=4 and k=5.

We apply the same formula but as a sum:

P(k\leq5)=\sum_{k=0}^{5}\frac{n!}{(n-k)!k!}p^kq^{n-k}

Then we have:

P(k=0)=0.0003\\P(k=1)=0.0033\\P(k=2)=0.0165\\P(k=3)=0.0511\\P(k=4)=0.1095\\P(k=5)=0.1721\\\\P(k\leq5)=0.0003+0.0033+0.0165+0.0511+0.1095+0.1721=0.3528

c) In this case, we have the sum of the probability that k is equal or less than 5, and the probability tha k is 10 or more (10 or more projects belonging to the 1st section).

The first (k less or equal to 5) is already calculated.

We have to calculate for k equal to 10 or more.

P(k\geq10)=\sum_{k=10}^{15}\frac{n!}{(n-k)!k!}p^kq^{n-k}

Then we have

P(k=10)=0.0320\\P(k=11)=0.0104\\P(k=12)=0.0025\\P(k=13)=0.0004\\P(k=14)=0.0000\\P(k=15)=0.0000\\\\P(k\geq10)=0.032+0.0104+0.0025+0.0004+0+0=0.0453

The sum of the probabilities is

P(k\leq5)+P(k\geq10)=0.3528+0.0453=0.3981
