The derivative is the rate of change of a function, basically represents the slope at different points. To find the derivative of the given function you can use the power rule, which means, if n is a real number, d/dx(x^n)= nx^(n-1). This is a simplification of the chain rule based on the fact that d/dx(x)=1. Anyway, this means that d/dx(x^3 + 1)= 3x^2. Here n is 3 and so it is 3*x^(3-1)= 3x^2. The derivative of x^3+1 is 3x^2.
If you are wondering what happened to the 1, for any constant C, d/dx(C)=0.
Answer:
a) Sample A
b) Sample D
Step-by-step explanation:
The sample that will provide the most significance evidence for the claim is the one that has the bigger proportion of US citizens who can name the capital city of Canada.
The sample that has the bigger proportion is Sample A, with p=38/40=0.95.
The samples that have a proportion of 0.75 of less surely will give no evidence for the claim.
The sample D has a proportion of p=27/40=0.675, which is less than 0.75, so it doesn't provide evidence for the claim.
Sample C has a proportion of 0.775. Is very close to 0.75, but its value as evidence depends on the level of significance of the test.
