A. Write a function f(x) to represent the price after the 80% markup. 
<span>b. Write a function g(x) to represent the price after the 25% markdown. </span>
<span>c. Use a composition function to find the price of an item after both price adjustments that originally costs the boutique $150. </span>
<span>d. Does the order in which the adjustments are applied make a difference? Explain. 
</span>
answers 

 <span>a) f(x) = 1.8x 

b) f(x) = 0.75(1.8x) 

c) f(150) = 0.75(1.8(150) = $202.50 

d) No, it doesn't matter. The result is the same.

A flagpole casts a shadow that is 85 feet long. Paul is 6 feet tall, and while standing next to the flagpole, casts a shadow tha
hammer [34]

Answer:

51m

Step-by-step explanation:

-Paul is 6ft, and has a 10ft shadow. The pole has a 85ft shadow:

-Using ratios:

\frac{Height\ of \ object}{Height\ of \  shadow}

Let h be the height of the flagpole:

=>\frac{6}{10}=\frac{h}{85}\\\\h=\frac{6\times 85}{10}\\\\h=51

Hence, the height of the pole is 51m

A test of H0: p = 0.5 versus Ha: p &gt; 0.5 has the test statistic z = 1.15. Part A: What conclusion can you draw at the 5% sign
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Part A: The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

Part B: The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have an hypothesis test with null and alternative hypothesis H0: p = 0.5 versus Ha: p > 0.5, which has the test statistic z=1.15.

Part A: If the significance level is 0.05, the conclusion depends on the P-value.

If the P-value is below 5%, the null hypothesis is rejected.

The P-value for this right-tailed tes and z=1.15 is:

P-value=P(z>1.15)=0.125

The P-value is bigger than the significance level, so the effect is not significant and the null hypothesis is failed to be rejected.

Part B: In this case, the significance level is 0.01 and, as the alternative hypothesis is defined with an unequal sign, the test is two-tailed.

This changes the way we calculate the P-value, as we need to compute the two tails.

The P-value is:

P-value=2P(z>1.15)=0.25

The P-value is bigger than the significance level, so the effect is not significant and the null hypothesis is failed to be rejected.
