How would you graph y=| x-2|-4

1 answer:

4 0

To graph ty function simply make a table of values, where you choose any value for x and substitute that value in the function.

Then take the absolute value of the expression in the square bracket.

It is always positive, the absolute value of -6 is 6 etc.

Then graph the resulting points.

Another way to do it is simply draw the graph of y = |x| then move it 2 spaces to the right and 4 spaces down, I believe.

a coin is tossed, then a letter in the word accomplishment is chosen at random. find the probability of heads, then a vowel

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

$\frac{5}{52}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Coin toss:

$Total\ outcome=\{H,T\}\\\\Favourable\ outcome=\{H\}\\\\P(Head)=\frac{Favourable\ outcome}{Number\ of\ total\ outcome}\\\\P(Head)=\frac{1}{2}$

Letter Selection:

$Number\ of\ total\ outcomes=26\ \ \ \ \ \ \ as\ total\ letters\ are\ 26\\\\Favourable\ outcomes=5\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ as\ there\ are\ 5\ vowels\\\\P(vowel)=\frac{Favourable\ outcomes}{Number\ of\ total\ outcomes}\\\\P(vowel)=\frac{5}{26}$

$These\ two\ events\ are\ independent.\\\\Hence\ probability\ of\ head\ and\ then\ vowel=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{5}{26}=\frac{5}{52}$

Assume that adults were randomly selected for a poll. They were asked if they "favor or oppose using federal tax dollars to fund

ser-zykov [4K]

Testing the hypothesis, it is found that since the p-value of the test is 0.0042 < 0.01, it can be concluded that the proportion of subjects who respond in favor is different of 0.5.

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the proportion is of 0.5, that is:

$H_0: p = 0.5$

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the proportion is different of 0.5, that is:

$H_1: p \neq 0.5$

The test statistic is given by:

$z = \frac{\overline{p} - p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}}}$

In which:

$\overline{p}$ is the sample proportion.
p is the value tested at the null hypothesis.
n is the sample size.

In this problem, the parameters are given by:

$p = 0.5, n = 483 + 398 = 881, \overline{p} = \frac{483}{881} = 0.5482$

The value of the test statistic is:

$z = \frac{\overline{p} - p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1 - p)}{n}}}$

$z = \frac{0.5482 - 0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(0.5)}{881}}}$

$z = 2.86$

Since we have a two-tailed test(test if the proportion is different of a value), the p-value of the test is P(|z| > 2.86), which is 2 multiplied by the p-value of z = -2.86.

Looking at the z-table, z = -2.86 has a p-value of 0.0021.

2(0.0021) = 0.0042

Since the p-value of the test is 0.0042 < 0.01, it can be concluded that the proportion of subjects who respond in favor is different of 0.5.
