The answer is 30 because 5×6=30 and 6×5=30.So the smallest number of books each could have shelved is 30 books...

Answer:

The smallest number of books each could have shelved = 30 books

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given that:

Sapphire shelves 5 books at a time and Abe shelves 6 books at a time.

If they end up shelving the same number of books, then we need to find  smallest number of books each could have shelved.

That means,  we need to find the smallest number that is the multiple of both 5 and 6.

Taking LCM of 5 and 6.

We get LCM of 5 and 6 is 30.

And 30 is the smallest number of books each could have shelved.

Notice that the alternative hypothesis is a two-tailed test. Suppose ttest_ind method from scipy module is used to perform the t
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

The <em>p</em>-value of the test is 0.0512.

Step-by-step explanation:

The <em>p</em>-value of a test is well-defined as per the probability, [under the null hypothesis (H₀)], of attaining a result equivalent to or more extreme than what was the truly observed value of the test statistic.

In this case the output of the t-test_ind method from scipy module is provided as follows:

Output = (-1.99, 0.0512)

The first value within the parentheses is the test statistic value.

So the test statistic value is, -1.99.

And the second value within the parentheses is the <em>p</em>-value of the test.

So the <em>p</em>-value of the test is 0.0512.

PLEASE HELP ME ASAP?!?
Blababa [14]

Answer:

f(x) = \frac{1}{4}x^{2}  > f(x) = -0.5x² > f(x) = x²

Step-by-step explanation:

In a quadratic function leading coefficient decides the width of a graph.

In simpler words, leading coefficient decides the vertical stretch of the graph.

Higher the value of leading coefficient, higher the vertical stretch.

When a graph is vertically stretched it becomes narrower.

(Note: Minus sign of the coefficient decides the opening of the graph, upwards or downwards)

Therefore, f(x) = x² having coefficient = 1 is the narrowest and f(x) = \frac{1}{4}x^{2} will be the widest.

So the descending order will be,

f(x) = \frac{1}{4}x^{2}  > f(x) = -0.5x² > f(x) = x²
