We let x represent number 1 and let y represent number 2. In this case, the first statement is translated into an expression: y - x  = 25 while the second statement is expreesed as x = y/6. Solving the two euqations simultaneously, y is equal to 30 and x is equal to 5.  hence, answer is 5

A certain city's population is 120,000 and decreases 1.4% per year for 15 years.
mart [117]

Answer:

  • Decay Problem.
  • Decay rate,  r = 0.014
  • Initial Amount =120,000
  • P(t)=120000(0.986)^t
  • P(10)=104,220

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential function for growth/decay is given as:

P(t)=P_0(1 \pm r)^t, where:\\P_0$ is the Initial Population\\r is the growth/decay rate\\t is time

In this problem:

The city's initial population is 120,000 and it decreases by 1.4% per year.

  • Since the population decreases, it is a Decay Problem.
  • Decay rate, r=1.4% =0.014
  • Initial Amount =120,000

Therefore, the function is:

P(t)=120000(1 - 0.014)^t\\P(t)=120000(0.986)^t

When t=10 years

P(10)=120000(0.986)^10\\=104219.8\\\approx 104220 $ (to the nearest whole number)

Consider the following hypothesis test. H0: μ ≥ 55 Ha: μ &lt; 55 A sample of 36 is used. Identify the p-value and state your con
Ket [755]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

H_o: \mu \ge 55 \ \\ \\ H_1 : \mu < 55

(a) For x = 54 and s = 5.3

The test statistics can be computed as:

Z = \dfrac{\overline x - \mu}{\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}} }

Z = \dfrac{54-55}{\dfrac{5.3}{\sqrt{36}} }

Z = \dfrac{-1}{\dfrac{5.3}{6} }

Z = -1.132

degree of freedom = n - 1

= 36 - 1

= 35

Using the Excel Formula:

P-Value = T.DIST(-1.132,35,1) = 0.1326

Decision: p-value is greater than significance level; do not reject \mathbf{H_o}

Conclusion: \  There  \ is \  insufficient \  evidence  \  to \  conclude \  that \ \mu < 55

b

For x = 53 and s = 4.6

The test statistics can be computed as:

Z = \dfrac{\overline x - \mu}{\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}} }

Z = \dfrac{53-55}{\dfrac{4.6}{\sqrt{36}} }

Z = \dfrac{-2}{\dfrac{4.6}{6} }

Z = -2.6087

degree of freedom = n - 1

= 36 - 1

= 35

Using the Excel Formula:

P-Value = T.DIST(-2.6087,35,1) =0.0066

Decision: p-value is < significance level; we reject the null hypothesis.

Conclusion: \  There  \ is \  sufficient \  evidence  \  to \  conclude \  that \mu < 55

c)

For x = 56 and s = 5.0

The test statistics can be computed as:

Z = \dfrac{\overline x - \mu}{\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}} }

Z = \dfrac{56-55}{\dfrac{5.0}{\sqrt{36}} }

Z = \dfrac{56-55}{\dfrac{5.0}{\sqrt{36}} }

Z = 1.2

degree of freedom = n - 1

= 36 - 1

= 35

Using the Excel Formula:

P-Value = T.DIST(1.2,35,1) = 0.88009

Decision: p-value is greater than significance level; do not reject \mathbf{H_o}

Conclusion: \  There  \ is \  insufficient \  evidence  \  to \  conclude \  that \ \mu < 55

Write a function rule for the area of a triangle whose base is 4 ft more than the height. What is the area of the triangle when
solong [7]

Answer:

A) Area as function of H ,

     F'(a) = 2 +H

B) Area of triangle with height 6ft = 30 ft²      

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as for a triangle ,

Let the height of triangle = H ft

And base = 4 ft + H ft

Now area of triangle = \frac{1}{2} × height  × base

                          F (a) =  \frac{1}{2} × H × ( 4ft + H ft)

Or,                      F (a) =  \frac{1}{2} × ( 4H + H² )

Now,   here Area is function of height ,

So ,                    F'(a) = \frac{1}{2}(4 + 2H)

Hence Area as function of H ,

                          F'(a) = 2 +H

Now For height = 6 ft

Area of triangle = \frac{1}{2} × height × base

                          = \frac{1}{2} × H × ( 4ft + H ft)

                          = \frac{1}{2} × ( 4H + H² )

                          =  \frac{1}{2} × ( 24 + 36 )

                          = \frac{1}{2} × ( 60 )

                          = 30 ft²

Hence Area of triangle with height 6ft = 30 ft²      Answer
