Answer:

speed of light is 3 x 10^{8} meters per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The speed of light is 3 x 10^{5} kilometers per second.

To find :  What is that in standard form.

Solution : We have given 3 x 10^{5} kilometers per second.

First we convert it in to meter per sec.

We can write  

3 x 10^{5} = 300000 kilometer per second .

We know that 1 km = 1000 meter.

Then 300000000 meter per second

Now,   3 x 10^{8} meter per second.

Therefore,  speed of light is 3 x 10^{8} meters per second.

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

The lower confidence limit of the 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of Americans who were victims of identity theft is 0.0275.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

A 2003 survey showed that 14 out of 250 Americans surveyed had suffered some kind of identity theft in the past 12 months.

This means that n = 250, \pi = \frac{14}{250} = 0.056

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a p-value of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

The lower limit of this interval is:

\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.056 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.056*0.944}{250}} = 0.0275

The lower confidence limit of the 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of Americans who were victims of identity theft is 0.0275.

How would I solve for the parabolic equation with these two given points. Please answer ASAP!!
monitta
So

y=ax^2+bx+c
(x,y)
sub the points and solve

(4.28,6.48)
6.48=a(4.28)^2+b(4.28)+c

(12.61,15.04)
15.04=a(12.61)^2+b(12.61)+c
well, for 3 variables, we need equations and therefor 3 points

maybe we are supposed to assume it starts at (0,0)
so then
0=a(0)^2+b(0)+c
0=c
so then
6.48=a(4.28)^2+b(4.28)
15.04=a(12.61)^2+b(12.61)

solve for a by subsitution
first equation, minut a(4.28)^2 from both sides
6.48-a(4.28)^2=b(4.28)
divide both sides by 4.28
(6.48/4.28)-4.28a=b
sub that for b in other equation

15.04=a(12.61)^2+b(12.61)
15.04=a(12.61)^2+((6.48/4.28)-4.28a)(12.61)
expand
15.04 =a(12.61)^2+(81.7128/4.28)-53.9708a
minus (81.7128/4.28) both sides
15.04-(81.7128/4.28)=a(12.61)^2-53.9708a
15.04-(81.7128/4.28)=a((12.61)^2-53.9708)
(15.04-(81.7128/4.28))/(((12.61)^2-53.9708))=a
that's the exact value of a
to find b, subsitute to get
(6.48/4.28)-4.28((15.04-(81.7128/4.28))/(((12.61)^2-53.9708)))=b

if we aprox
a≈-0.038573167896199
b≈1.6791118501845
so then the equation is
y=-0.038573167896199x²+1.6791118501845x
