Find the domain x^2-25/2

Mathematics

Mumz [18]3 years ago

For this, I am assuming that -25/2 is not a part of the exponent(although in future questions you should make this clear by using parenthesis.

When I do problems like this, I come to CBAD.  where the variables are y=A(Bx+C)+D

CBAD helps significantly in domain and range problems where there is a well known parent function.  (y=x^2, y=sqrt(x), y=1/x, y=x, etc).  Basically, if there is a parent function with slight additions(y=2*x^2, y=sqrt(x+1), y=1/(5x), y=3x, etc)

This works that in the order, a C term shifts the graph horizontally in the opposite direction expected (a negative number will shift right, a positive number will shift left).  For example, if C is -2, the graph of the parent function will shift right 2.
Then, a B term dilates(changes the horizontal size of the graph) by the factor 1/B(every x value is multiplied by 1/B).  Thus a B >1 will shrink the graph horizontally, and a 0<B<1 with stretch the graph horizontally.  If B is negative, it reflects the graph over the y axis and then either shrinks or stretches horizontally.  If B is 1, nothing changes.
Then, a A term dilates(changes the horizontal size of the graph) by the factor A(every y value is multiplied by A).  Thus a A >1 will stretch the graph vertically, and a 0<A<1 with shrink the graph vertically.  If A is negative, it reflects the graph over the x axis and then either shrinks or stretches vertically.  If A is 1, nothing changes.
Finally, a D term shifts the graph vertically in the direction expected (a negative number will shift down, a positive number will shift up).  For example, if D is -2, the graph of the parent function will shift down 2.

<u>Warning </u><u></u><u>CBAD must be performed in the order C-B-A-D</u>

Now that you know these simple rules and can memorize the few parent functions, you can figure out the domain and range of almost any function.  

In your case, the function x^(2)-25/2 is not much different than x^2, an upwards facing parabola centered at (0,0).  In fact, there is only one transformation, D, because C=0 (it is not shown), B=1(it is not shown), and A=1(it is not shown).  Thus the only difference between your graph and the parent function is that yours is shifted down by 25/2.  

For this reason, because the domain of x^2 is not restricted (it includes all real numbers), the domain of your new function is not restricted (it includes all real numbers).

EU (European Union) countries report that 46% of their labor force is female. The United Nations wants to determine if the perce
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

b. We are 95% confident that between 35.5% and 44.3% of the persons in the U.S. labor force is female.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation  

n=500 represent the random sample taken    

X represent the number of females in the U.S. labor force

\hat p=0.46 estimated proportion of females in the U.S. labor force

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level (no given, but is assumed)    

z would represent the statistic    

p= population proportion of females in the U.S. labor force

2) Confidence interval

The confidence interval would be given by this formula

\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}

For the 95% confidence interval the value of \alpha=1-0.95=0.05 and \alpha/2=0.025, with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.

z_{\alpha/2}=1.96

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:

0.46 - 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.46(1-0.46)}{500}}=0.416

0.46 + 2.58 \sqrt{\frac{0.46(1-0.46)}{500}}=0.504

On this case the calculated interval is not the given , but let's assume that the confidence interval is given by the statment: "United States Department of Labor find that 95% confidence interval for the proportion of females in the U.S. labor force is .357 to .443."

3) Correct interpretation

a. The margin of error for the true percentage of females in the U.S. labor force is between 35.7% and 44.3%.

False the confidence interval not conclude about the margin of error conclude about the true proportion.

b. We are 95% confident that between 35.5% and 44.3% of the persons in the U.S. labor force is female.

True, the statement report the confidence level and the limits for the margin of error.

c. The percentage of females in the U.S. labro force is between 35.7% and 44.3%.

False, The statement is not correct because not reports the confidence level.

d. All sample of size 500 will yield a percentage of females in the U.S. labor force that falls within 35.7% and 44.3%

False the confidence interval is for the population proportion not just for the samples of size 500

e. None of these.

False, we have an option that is true.
