Answer:

The calculated t-value is t=0.47.

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The question is incomplete:</em>

<em>"Americans typically eat quickly and do not spend time enjoying their meal. A researcher plans to test if those trained in mindfulness will take more time to enjoy their meal (that is, they will spend more time eating than the general population). The general population spends an average of 68 minutes per day combined eating their three meals. The researcher trains a sample of 16 individuals in mindfulness and then collects data on how long they spend eating per day. The sample mean for those trained in mindfulness equals 74; the SS = 150. What is the calculated t-value? Round your answer to two decimal places."</em>

The degrees of freedom are (n-1)=(16-1)=15

The standard deviation is:

s=\sqrt{\frac{SS}{n-1}}=\sqrt{\frac{150}{16-1}}=\sqrt{10}=3.16

The t-value can be calculated as:

t=\frac{M-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}} =\frac{74-68}{3.16/\sqrt{16}} \\\\t=\frac{6}{3.16*4}=\frac{6}{12.64}= 0.47

The question is about unit circle in screenshot
Orlov [11]

The complete sentence for the <em>unit</em> circle is:

<em>When t = 0, AP = 0, so sin t will begin at a value of 0. As t increases from 0 to π/2, sin t increases. Eventually, when t = π/2, OP will be 0, so sin t = AP will be 1.</em>

<h3>How to complete a sentence with concepts from trigonometry</h3>

In this problem we have sentence to be completed by direct observation to the variables seen in a unit circle, a form used to teach trigonometric functions in a <em>graphic</em> manner. Now we proceed to present the complete sentence below:

<em>When t = 0, AP = 0, so sin t will begin at a value of 0. As t increases from 0 to π/2, sin t increases. Eventually, when t = π/2, OP will be 0, so sin t = AP will be 1.</em>

Find the positive value of x in the geometric sequence 7x-2,4x+4,3x
Goryan [66]
Hello,


Let's assume k the ratio.

&#10; \left \{ {{3x=k*(4x+4)} \atop {4x+4=k*(7x-2)}} \right. \\\\&#10; \left \{ {{3x-4kx=4k} \atop {4x-7kx=-2k-4}} \right. \\\\&#10; \left \{ {{x(3-4k)=4k} \atop {x(4-7k)=-2k-4}} \right. \\\\&#10; \left \{ {{x=\dfrac{4k}{3-4k} \atop {x=\dfrac{-2k-4}{4-7k} \right. \\\\&#10;&#10;\dfrac{4k}{3-4k}=\dfrac{-2k-4}{4-7k}\\\\&#10;&#10;36k^2-6k-12=0\\&#10;6k^2-k-2=0\\&#10;&#10;\boxed{k= \dfrac{2}{3} \ or\ k= -\dfrac{1}{2}}\\\\&#10;&#10;x=\dfrac{4*\dfrac{2}{3} }{3-4*\dfrac{2}{3} }=8\\&#10;x=\dfrac{4*\dfrac{-1}{2} }{3-4*\dfrac{-1}{2} }=-\dfrac{2}{5}\\&#10;&#10;&#10;&#10;&#10;&#10;

\boxed{x= 8 \ or\ x= -\dfrac{2}{5}}\\\\
