Answer:

a) 0.76197086

b) -1.73406361

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Consider a t distribution with 7 degrees of freedom. Compute P(-1.29 < t < 1.29)

P(-1.29 < t < 1.29) would be the area under the t distribution curve with 7 degrees of freedom between -1.29 and 1.29, that is in the interval (-1.29, 1.29).

This can be done the old style by looking up in a table or by using the technology with a spreadsheet.

In Excel, the function TDIST(x,n,2) with x>0 gives the area outside the interval (-x, x) of the t distribution with n degrees of freedom.

So TDIST(1.29,7,2) gives the area outside (-1.29, 1.29).

If we subtract this value from 1 we get the desired result

Hence  

P(-1.29 < t < 1.29) = 1 - TDIST(1.29,7,2) = 1 - 0.23802914 = 0.76197086

In OpenOffice Calc, the function is the same replacing “,” with “;”  

That is

P(-1.29 < t < 1.29) = 1 - TDIST(1.29;7;2) = 0.76197086

b)

Consider a t distribution with 18 degrees of freedom. Find the value of c such that P(t≤ c) = 0.05

We are looking for a point c such that the area of the t distribution with 18 degrees of freedom to the left of c is 0.05

In Excel, the inverse function of TDIST is TINV.  

TINV(p*2,n) with p>0 gives the point c such that the area of the t distribution with n degrees of freedom to the right of c is p.  

Since <em>the t distribution is symmetric with respect to 0</em>, -c would be a point such that the area to the left of -c is p.

So we want to compute  in Excel

-TINV(0.05*2,18) = -1.73406361

In OpenOffice Calc  

-TINV(0.05*2;18) = -1.73406361

At a greengrocer, two bananas and one apple cost ?1.16 and one banana and one apple cost ?0.71. How much does one apple cost?
Blababa [14]

Answer

Find out the how much does one apple cost .

To prove

Let us assume that the number of bananas be x .

Let us assume that the number of apples be y .

As given

At a greengrocer, two bananas and one apple cost $1.16 .

Than the equation becomes

2x + y = 1.16

one banana and one apple cost $0.71.

Than the equation becomes

x + y = 0.71

Subtracting x + y = 0.71 from 2x + y = 1.16

2x - x + y - y = 1.16 - 0.71

x = 0.45

Put in the equation x + y = 0.71

0.45 + y = 0.71

y = 0.71 - 0.45

y = $0.26

Therefore the cost of the one apple is  $0.26 .

2. Choose the graph that shows the solution of the inequality on the number line
horsena [70]

Answer:

Number line 3 also known as [C]

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Given that:</em>

<em>c ≤ </em>-1

Knowing that:

≤  = Less than or equal to

Now substitute into the equation:

C less than or equal to -1

Thus, it going left on a number line.

The only number line with left is [A] and [C]

Since ≤  = Less than or equal to -1

then, it including -1

also known as a closed circle means the number is included and an open circle means it is not.

Hence, it closed circle.

Thus, the answer is [C]

1.Find the next three terms in the sequence. -2 , -5 , -8, -11 , ...
nikklg [1K]
The next 3 terms would be: -14, -17, and -20 (the pattern is your -3 each time) the 100th term would be -279 i think because there is 93 spots left after the first 7 terms, so 93 x -3 = -279

Marvin wants to purchase a rectangular rug. It has an area represented by the expression 4x^2+64x+256. what is the length and wi
jasenka [17]

Answer: the length and width are

(x + 8) and (x + 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The rug has an area represented by the expression

Area = 4x² + 64x + 256.

The factors in the factored expressions represent the length and width of the rug.

Dividing the the equation by 4, it becomes

x² + 16x + 64 = 0

We would find two numbers such that their sum or difference is 16x and their product is 64x^2.

The two numbers are 8x and 8x. Therefore,

x² + 8x + 8x + 64 = 0

x(x + 8) + 8(x + 8) = 0

The factors are

(x + 8)(x + 8)
