\bf \textit{Double Angle Identities}&#10;\\ \quad \\&#10;sin(2\theta)=2sin(\theta)cos(\theta)&#10;\\ \quad \\&#10;cos(2\theta)=&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;cos^2(\theta)-sin^2(\theta)\\&#10;1-2sin^2(\theta)\\&#10;\boxed{2cos^2(\theta)-1}&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\ \quad \\&#10;tan(2\theta)=\cfrac{2tan(\theta)}{1-tan^2(\theta)}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;

\bf cos(2\theta)=\cfrac{5}{6}\implies 2cos^2(\theta)-1=\cfrac{5}{6}\implies 2cos^2(\theta)=\cfrac{5}{6}+1&#10;\\\\\\&#10;2cos^2(\theta)=\cfrac{11}{6}\implies cos^2(\theta)=\cfrac{11}{12}\implies cos(\theta)=\pm\sqrt{\cfrac{11}{12}}


now, bear in mind, the square root gives us +/- versions, so, which is it? well, we know the angle is in the range of "<span>0 ≤ θ < π/2", that simply means the 1st quadrant, so, we'll use the positive one then

</span>\bf cos(\theta)=\cfrac{\sqrt{11}}{\sqrt{12}}\implies cos(\theta)=\cfrac{\sqrt{11}}{2\sqrt{3}}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{now, let's rationalize the denominator}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\cfrac{\sqrt{11}}{2\sqrt{3}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}\implies \cfrac{\sqrt{11}\cdot \sqrt{3}}{2\sqrt{3^2}}\implies \cfrac{\sqrt{11\cdot 33}}{2\cdot 3}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{\sqrt{33}}{6}}<span>

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

a. Predicted Amount = $109.46

b. Confidence Interval = (94.84,124.08)

c. Interval = (110.6883,188.8517)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

ŷ = 17.49 + 1.0334x.

SSE = 1541.4

a.

ŷ = 17.49 + 1.0334(89)

ŷ = 109.4626

ŷ = 109.46 --- Approximated

Predicted Amount = $109.46

b.

ŷ = 17.49 + 1.0334(89)

ŷ = 109.4626

ŷ = 109.46

First we calculate the standard deviation

variance = SSE/(n-2)

v = 1541.4/(9-2)

v = 1541.4/7

v = 220.2

s = √v

s = √220.2

s = 14.839

Then we calculate mean(x) and ∑(x - (mean(x))²

X --- Y -- Mean(x) --- ∑(x - (mean(x))²

148 -- 161 -- 43-- 1849

96 || 105|| -9 || 81

91 ||101 || -14 || 196

110 || 142 || 5 || 25

90 || 100 || -15 || 225

102 || ||120 ||-3|| 9

136 || 167 ||31 ||961

90 || 140 ||-15 ||225

82 || 98 ||-23 || 529

Sum 945 || 1134|| 0 ||4100

Mean (x) = 945/9 = 105

∑(x - (mean(x))² = 4100

α = 1 - 95% = 5%

α/2 = 2.5% = 0.025

tα,df = n − 2 = t0.025,7 =2.365

Confidence interval = 109.46 ± 2.365 * 14.839 √((1/9)+ (89-105)²/4100

Confidence Interval = (109.46 ± 14.62)

Confidence Interval = (94.84,124.08)

c.

ŷ = 17.49 + 1.0334(128)

ŷ = 149.7652

ŷ = 149.77

Interval = 149.77 ± 2.365 * 14.839 √((1/9)+ (128-105)²/4100

Interval = 149.77 ± 39.0817

Interval = (110.6883,188.8517)

Please help me ASAP! thank you ^-^ As part of a new advertising campaign, a beverage company wants to increase the dimensions of
ipn [44]

Answer:

B 137.32 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The original volume is

V = pi r^2 h

V = pi (3)^2 ( 12)

V =108 pi cm^2 = 339.12

the diameter increases by 1.12  6*1.12 = 6.72

r = 6.72 /2 =3.36

The height will increase by 1.12 so 12*1.12

V = pi ( 3.36)^2 ( 13.44)=476.4391834

The difference is

476.4391834 - 339.12 = 137.3191834

To the nearest hundredth

137.32
