Answer:

0.249 is the required proportion.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 822

Number of people who preferred foreign cars over domestic, x = 205

We have to find the proportion of new car buyers who prefer foreign cars.

Formula:

\hat{p} = \dfrac{x}{n}

Putting values, we get,

\hat{p} = \dfrac{205}{822}\\\\\hat{p} = 0.249

Thus, 0.249 is the proportion of the new car buyers who preferred foreign over domestic cars..

Use appropriate algebra and theorem 7.2.1 to find the given inverse laplace transform. (write your answer as a function of t.) ℒ
castortr0y [4]

We assume you want to find the inverse transform of s/(s^2 +3s -4). This can be written in partial fraction form as

(4/5)/(s+4) + (1/5)/(s-1)

which can be found in a table of transforms to be the transform of

(4/5)e^(-4t) + (1/5)e^t


_____

There are a number of ways to determine the partial fractions. They all start with factoring the denominator.

s^2 +3x -4 = (s+4)(s-1)


After that, you can postulate the final form and determine the values of the coefficients that make it so. For example:

A/(s+4) + B/(s-1) = ((A+B)s + (4B-A))/(s^2 +3x -4)


This gives rise to two equations:

(A+B) = 1

(4B-A) = 0

Determine if the following table represents a quadratic function.
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

<em>The options are not visible enough (See Explanation)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x:-  1   || 2   || 3   || 4   || 5

y:-  13 || 22 || 37 || 58 || 85

Required

Determine if the function is quadratic

Calculate the difference between the values of y

Difference = 22 - 13 = 9

Difference = 37 - 22 = 15

Difference = 58 - 37 = 21

Difference = 85 - 58 = 27

<em>The resulting difference are: 9 || 15 || 21 ||  27</em>

Next; Calculate the difference between the difference of values of y

Difference = 15 - 9 = 6

Difference = 21 - 15 = 6

Difference = 27 - 21 = 6

<em>The resulting difference are: 6 || 6 || 6</em>

<em>For the function to be quadratic, the above difference must be the same and since they are the same (6), then the function represents a quadratic function.</em>
