There are three exams in your linear algebra class, and you theorize that your score in each exam (out of 100) will be numerical

ly equal to the number of hours you study for that exam. The three exams count 20%, 30%, and 50%, respectively, toward the final grade. If your (modest) goal is to score 76% in the course, how many hours a, b, and c should you study for each of the three exams to minimize quantity a2 b2 c2

7 0

Answer:

a) 40 hours

b) 60 hours

C) 100 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

0.2a + 0.3b+0.5c = 76

Hence: 0.2* (0.2 λ) +0.3*(0.3 λ )+0.5*(0.5 λ ) = 76

0.38 λ =76

λ = 76/0.38 =200

Thus : 40, 60, 100

A study is conducted to determine whether a new cancer drug increases the mean survival time by at least 30 days for a certain t
anygoal [31]

Answer:

H0: The new cancer drug increases the mean survival time by 30 days

Ha: The new cancer drug increases the mean survival time by 30 or more than 30 days.

If fail to reject H0 (the null hypothesis), the conclusion is that the new cancer drug increases the mean survival time by 30 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is a statement from a population parameter which is either rejected or accepted (fail to reject) upon testing. It is expressed using the equality sign.

The alternate hypothesis is also a statement from a population parameter which negates the null hypothesis and is accepted if the null hypothesis is rejected. It is expressed using any of the inequality signs.

The test is a two-tailed test because the alternate hypothesis is expressed using more than or equal to.

If I fail to reject H0, it means the test statistic falls within the region bounded by the critical values.

It would therefore be concluded that the new cancer drug increases the mean survival time by 30 days.

Now see if you can solve these word problems about time and distance.
ladessa [460]

Answer:

3.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Ediburgh -------------------------------350 miles-------------------------London

Let the distance traveled by train from Edin to London be "x"

hence the distance traveled by train from London to Edin would be "350-x"

  • The rate of Edin to London train is 60
  • The rate of London to Edin train is 40

Let the time they meet be"t"

Now, we know distance formula to be D = RT

Where

D is distance

R is rate

and

T is time

<u>Train from Edin to London:</u>

x = 60t

<u>Train from London to Edin:</u>

350-x = 40t

Solving for x:

350 - 40t = x

We put this into first equation:

x = 60t

350 - 40t = 60t

350 = 100t

t = 350/100

t = 3.5

They meet after 3.5 hours
