Answer:

20 fence posts.

Step-by-step explanation:

Calvin is building a fence. The fence will enclose a 100 square foot area, 10 ft wide by 10 ft long. Calvin can put fence posts 2 feet apart.

Now, if he puts a fence post at each corner of the building, then considering each length of the building there will be (\frac{10}{2} + 1) = 6 posts along each length.

Now, considering each width of the building there will be (\frac{10}{2} - 1) = 4 posts (excluding the corner posts) along each width.

Therefore, in total there will be (6 + 6 + 4 + 4) = 20 fence post in the total fence. (Answer)

A perfume company claims that the mean weight of ther new perfume is at least 8.9 fluid oz. Express the null hypothesis and the
zlopas [31]

Answer:

H0: mu = 8.9 fl oz.\\\\

Ha: mu ≠8.9 fluid oz

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that A perfume company claims that the mean weight of ther new perfume is at least 8.9 fluid oz

For testing this claim, in Statistics we perform a certain measures called hypothesis testing.

For this first step is to create null and alternate hypothesis.

Normally null hypothesis would have some statistic = something

Here we want to test the mean weight of perfume

Hence null hypothesis would be

H0: mu = 8.9 fl oz.

Alternate hypothesis would be opposite of this claim

i.e.

Ha: mu ≠8.9 fluid oz

Hence answer is

H0: mu = 8.9 fl oz.\\\\

Ha: mu ≠8.9 fluid oz

Derive the equation of the parabola with the focus <br> is (-7,5) and the directrix of y=-11
Volgvan
So, notice, the focus point is at -7, 5, and the directrix is at y = -11.

keep in mind that the vertex is half-way between those two fellows, and the distance from the vertex to either one of them is "p" units, check the picture below.

with that focus point and that directrix, the half-way over the axis of symmetry will be -7, -3, that's where the vertex is at, and notice the distance "p", is 8 units.

since the parabola is opening upwards, "p" is positive 8.

\bf \textit{parabola vertex form with focus point distance}\\\\&#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;4p(x- h)=(y- k)^2&#10;\\\\&#10;\boxed{4p(y- k)=(x- h)^2}&#10;\end{array}&#10;\qquad &#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;vertex\ ( h, k)\\\\&#10; p=\textit{distance from vertex to }\\&#10;\qquad \textit{ focus or directrix}&#10;\end{array}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;h=-7\\&#10;k=-3\\&#10;p=8&#10;\end{cases}\implies 4(8)[y-(-3)]=[x-(-7)]^2&#10;\\\\\\&#10;32(y+3)=(x+7)^2\implies y+3=\cfrac{1}{32}(x+7)^2&#10;\\\\\\&#10;y=\cfrac{1}{32}(x+7)^2-3
