The number of cases of a new disease can be modeled by the quadratic regression equation y = –2x2 + 36x + 6, where x represents

the year. Which is the best prediction for the number of new cases in year 15? A. 194 B. 96 C. 328 D. 614

Since x represents the year, year 15 will be 15 years.

Plug in "15" as your "x"

y = -2(15)^2 + 36(15) + 6

15^2 = 225 (Exponents come before multiplication)

y = -2(225) + 36(15) + 6

y = -450 + 540 + 6

y = 90 + 6

y = 96

<em>The answer is B</em>

seraphim [82]

Answer:

A can paint in 3days and B in 6 days

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we were told

Person A can paint the neighbors house 2 times as fast as Person B

Let A only paint the neighbors house in X days

Let B only paint the neighbors house in 2X days

If we express the given information from the question in terms of fraction we have,

1/X + 1/2X = 1/2

3/2X = 1/2

if we cross multiply we have

6= 2X

X= 6/2

X= 3

Then A can paint the house in 3 days and B in 2(3)= 6days.

Given the data set (18,14, 12, 14, 11, 11, 19, 20, 16, 11), which statements are correct?
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

The correct statement is that the <u>range of the data is 9</u>

<h3>Range of a data</h3>

The formula for calculating the range of data is expressed as:

Range = Highest value - Lowest value

From the given data

  • Highest value = 20
  • Lowest value = 11

Substituting into the formula

Range = 20 - 11

Range = 9

Hence the correct statement is that the <u>range of the data is 9</u>

Diego was trying to write (5^2)^4 with a single exponent and wrote (5^2)^4=5^2+^4=5^6. What should the answer be? Explain Diego'
o-na [289]

Answer:

5^8

Step-by-step explanation:

Diego added the exponents. This was an error. If he was simplifying

5^2 × 5^4, then he could add the exponents and get a correct answer. But his problem had a power raised to a power. In this case, you multiply the exponents to simplify.

(5^2)^4 means

5^2×5^2×5^2×5^2

which is

5×5×5×5×5×5×5×5

which is 5^8.

Please help and thank you
tatiyna

Answer:

b_{1}=\frac{2A}{h}-b_{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A=\frac{1}{2}(b_{1} +b_{2})h

We need to completely isolate b_{1} to solve.

A=\frac{1}{2}(b_{1} +b_{2})h

A=(\frac{1}{2}b_{1} +\frac{1}{2} b_{2})h

A=\frac{1}{2}b_{1} h+\frac{1}{2}b_{2}h

-\frac{1}{2}b_{1}h+A=\frac{1}{2}b_{2}h

-\frac{1}{2}b_{1}h=-A+\frac{1}{2}b_{2}h

-\frac{1}{2}b_{1}=\frac{-A}{h}+\frac{1}{2}b_{2}

Finally, multiply both sides by -2 to completely isolate b_{1}.

b_{1}=\frac{2A}{h}-b_{2}

The National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) reports that 70%70% of U.S. adults aged 6565 and over have ever received a pneu
Marianna [84]

Answer:

11.44% probability that exactly 12 members of the sample received a pneumococcal vaccination.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they received a pneumococcal vaccination, or they did not. The probability of an adult receiving a pneumococcal vaccination is independent of other adults. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

70% of U.S. adults aged 65 and over have ever received a pneumococcal vaccination.

This means that p = 0.7

20 adults

This means that n = 20

Determine the probability that exactly 12 members of the sample received a pneumococcal vaccination.

This is P(X = 12).

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 12) = C_{20,12}.(0.7)^{12}.(0.3)^{8} = 0.1144

11.44% probability that exactly 12 members of the sample received a pneumococcal vaccination.
