Complete Question

Pennsylvania Refining Company is studying the relationship between the pump price of gasoline and the number of gallons sold. For a sample of 14 stations last Tuesday, the correlation was 0.65.At the 0.01 significance level Can the company conclude that the correlation is positive

Answer:

Yes the company conclude that the correlation is positive

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  sample size is  n =  14

    The correlation is  r =  0.65

     

The  null hypothesis is  H_o :  r <  0

The  alternative hypothesis is  H_1 :  r > 0

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically evaluated as

       Sr =  \sqrt{1- r}

       Sr =  \sqrt{1- 0.65}

       Sr = 0.616

The  degree of freedom for the one-tail test is

       df =  n- 2

        df =  14- 2

        df = 12

The standard error is evaluated as

        SE  =  \frac{0.616}{ \sqrt{12} }

        SE  =0.1779

The test statistics  is evaluated as

      t =  \frac{r }{SE}

       t =  \frac{0.65 }{0.1779}

        t =  3.654

The p-value of of  t is obtained from the z table, the value is  

        p-value =  P(t <  3.654) =  0.00012909

Given that p-value  <  \alpha  then we reject the null hypothesis

           Hence the company can conclude that the correlation is positive

A point P(x,y) moves along the graph of the equation y = x3 + x2 + 2. The x-values are changing at the rate of 2 units per secon
CaHeK987 [17]

Using implicit differentiation, it is found that y is changing at a rate of 10 units per second.

---------------------

The equation is:

y = x^3 + x^2 + 2

Applying implicit differentiation in function of t, we have that:

\frac{dy}{dt} = 3x^2\frac{dx}{dt} + 2x\frac{dx}{dt}

  • x-values changing at a rate of 2 units per second means that \frac{dx}{dt} = 2
  • Point Q(1,4) means that x = 1, y = 4.

We want to find \frac{dy}{dt}, thus:

\frac{dy}{dt} = 3x^2\frac{dx}{dt} + 2x\frac{dx}{dt}

\frac{dy}{dt} = 3(1)^2(2) + 2(1)(2) = 6 + 4 = 10

y is changing at a rate of 10 units per second.

Suppose f(x) = x. Find the graph of f(x+2).
Ostrovityanka [42]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The fourth graph.

<h2>Why?</h2>

We are given the following equation:

f(x)=x

Then, we need to find the graph of f(x+2) that will be equal to:

f(x+2)=x+2

y=x+2

Now, finding the x-axis interception, making "y" equal to 0, we have:

0=x+2

-2=x

Therefore, the x-axis interception point is located at (-2,0), it matches with the fourth graph.

Now, finding the y-axis interception, making "x" equal to 0, we have:

y=x+2

y=0+2=2

Therefore, the y-axis interception point is located at (0,2), it matches with the fourth graph.

Hence, we have that the graph of f(x+2) is the fourth graph since the second graph function cuts the x-axis at -2 and the y-axis at 2.

Have a nice day!
