Find the equation of the axis of symmetry of the following parabola algebraically.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sonja [21]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x² − 4x − 14

y = 2 (x² − 2x) − 14

y = 2 (x² − 2x + 1) − 14 − 2(1)

y = 2 (x − 1)² − 16

The vertex of the parabola is at (1, -16).  So the equation of the line of symmetry is x = 1.

A cereal box filling machine is designed to release an amount of 16 ounces of cereal into each box, and the machine’s manufactur
Paraphin [41]

Using the z-distribution, it is found that since the p-value is less than 0.05, there is evidence that the mean amount of cereal in each box is different from 16 ounces at 0.05 significance.

<h3>What are the hypothesis tested?</h3>

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the mean is not different to 16 ounces, that is:

H_0: \mu = 16

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the mean is different, hence:

H_1: \mu \neq 16

<h3>What is the test statistic?</h3>

The test statistic is:

z = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

In which:

  • \overline{x} is the sample mean.
  • \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis.
  • \sigma is the standard deviation of the population.
  • n is the sample size.

The parameters for this problem are:

\overline{x} = 15.75, \mu = 16, \sigma = 1.46, n = 150.

Hence:

z = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

z = \frac{15.75 - 16}{\frac{1.46}{\sqrt{150}}}

z = -2.1

<h3>What is the p-value and the conclusion?</h3>

Using a z-distribution calculator, for a two-tailed test, as we are testing if the mean is different of a value, with z = -2.1, the p-value is of 0.0357.

Since the p-value is less than 0.05, there is evidence that the mean amount of cereal in each box is different from 16 ounces at 0.05 significance.

The proportion who had<em> no such experience</em> was 0.362

<h3>
How the find the proportion?</h3>

Given:

Total sample: 3887

No that had no opinion: 1407

No that had at least one experience: 2480

Therefore, to find the proportion who had<em> no such experience</em> is:

Sample number/Total sample

1407/3887

=0.362
