I think if 10% and $8 off an item together would be good for an more expensive item life $ 20-50 I think 15% off would be better for an less expensive item like $1-10

In a random sample of males, it was found that 28 write with their left hands and 210 do not. In a random sample of females, it
Drupady [299]

Answer:

a) Null hypothesis:p_{M} \geq p_{W}  

Alternative hypothesis:p_{M} < p_{W}  

b) z=\frac{0.118-0.125}{\sqrt{0.122(1-0.122)(\frac{1}{238}+\frac{1}{497})}}=-0.271    

c)p_v =P(Z   

d) If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the proportion of men that write with their left hand is NOT significant lower than the proportion of female that write with their left hand

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation  

X_{M}=28 represent the number of men that write with their left hand

X_{W}=62 represent the number of women  that write with their left hand

n_{M}=210+28=238 sample of male selected

n_{W}=62+435=497 sample of female selected

p_{M}=\frac{28}{238}=0.118 represent the proportion of men  that write with their left hand

p_{W}=\frac{62}{497}=0.125 represent the proportion of women that write with their left hand

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the value for the test (variable of interest)

2) Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the rate of left-handedness among males is less than that among females , the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:p_{M} \geq p_{W}  

Alternative hypothesis:p_{M} < p_{W}  

We need to apply a z test to compare proportions, and the statistic is given by:  

z=\frac{p_{M}-p_{W}}{\sqrt{\hat p (1-\hat p)(\frac{1}{n_{M}}+\frac{1}{n_{W}})}}   (1)

Where \hat p=\frac{X_{M}+X_{W}}{n_{M}+n_{W}}=\frac{28+62}{238+497}=0.122

3) Calculate the statistic

Replacing in formula (1) the values obtained we got this:  

z=\frac{0.118-0.125}{\sqrt{0.122(1-0.122)(\frac{1}{238}+\frac{1}{497})}}=-0.271  

4) Statistical decision

We have a significance level provided \alpha=0.05, and now we can calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a one left side test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(Z  

If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.05, 0,1,0.15 we see that p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the proportion of men that write with their left hand is NOT significant loer than the proportion of female that write with their left hand .

Which vector best describes the translation below?
Nimfa-mama [501]
<h3>Answer: Choice A)  <9,0></h3>

Explanation:

Focus on one of the points in the figure on the left. Let's say we go for the upper left corner point (-7, 4)

Notice it moves to the corresponding image point (2,4). It has shifted 9 units to the right to follow the translation rule (x,y) \to (x+9, y). We've added 9 to the x coordinate, and the y coordinate stays the same.

This notation can be shortened to <9, 0>

In general, the notation (x,y) \to (x+a, y+b) is shortened to the translation vector notation < a, b >. In this case, a = 9 and b = 0.

Complete the multiplication: AB. <br><br> A. <br> B. <br> C. <br> D.
Firdavs [7]
These array of numbers shown above are called matrices. These are rectangular arrays of number that are arranged in columns and rows. It is mostly useful in solving a system of linear equations. For example, you have these equations

x+3y=5
2x+y=1
x+y=10

In matrix form that would be

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&3&5\\2&1&1\\1&1&10\end{array}\right]

where the first column are the coefficients of x, the second column the coefficients of y and the third column is the constants, When you multiple matrices, just multiply the same number on the same column number and the same row number. For this problem, the solution is

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3*2&0*8\\2*0.6&-1*3\end{array}\right] =  \left[\begin{array}{ccc}6&0\\1.2&-3\end{array}\right]

Tickets to a sporting event cost $125 each. What's a reasonable domain and range.
djverab [1.8K]

The domain and the range of a function is the set of input and output values of the function.

The domain is the set of all whole numbers.

The range is the set of all whole numbers.

Let the number of tickets be x, and the revenue be y.

So, the revenue function will be:

y = 125

The number of tickets cannot be less than 0.

So, the domain of the revenue function is

domain=0,∞

The above means that, the domain is the set of all whole numbers

Similarly, the revenue cannot be less than 0.

So, the range of the revenue function is

range = 0,∞

The above means that, the range is also the set of all whole numbers (in multiples of 125).

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

  • <u>0.075 m/min</u>

Explanation:

You need to use derivatives which is an advanced concept used in calculus.

<u>1. Write the equation for the volume of the cone:</u>

      V=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2h

<u />

<u>2. Find the relation between the radius and the height:</u>

  • r = diameter/2 = 5m/2 = 2.5m
  • h = 5.2m
  • h/r =5.2 / 2.5 = 2.08

<u>3. Filling the tank:</u>

Call y the height of water and x the horizontal distance from the axis of symmetry of the cone to the wall for the surface of water, when the cone is being filled.

The ratio x/y is the same r/h

  • x/y=r/h
  • y = x . h / r

The volume of water inside the cone is:

        V=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi x^2y

        V=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi x^2(2.08)\cdot x\\\\\\V=\dfrac{2.08}{3}\pi x^3

<u>4. Find the derivative of the volume of water with respect to time:</u>

            \dfrac{dV}{dt}=2.08\pi x^2\dfrac{dx}{dt}

<u>5. Find x² when the volume of water is 8π m³:</u>

       V=\dfrac{2.08}{3}\pi x^3\\\\\\8\pi=\dfrac{2.08}{3}\pi x^3\\\\\\  11.53846=x^3\\ \\ \\ x=2.25969\\ \\ \\ x^2=5.1062m²

<u>6. Solve for dx/dt:</u>

      1.2m^3/min=2.08\pi(5.1062m^2)\dfrac{dx}{dt}

      \dfrac{dx}{dt}=0.03596m/min

<u />

<u>7. Find dh/dt:</u>

From y/x = h/r = 2.08:

        y=2.08x\\\\\\\dfrac{dy}{dx}=2.08\dfrac{dx}{dt}\\\\\\\dfrac{dy}{dt}=2.08(0.035964m/min)=0.0748m/min\approx0.075m/min

That is the rate at which the water level is rising when there is 8π m³ of water.
