7 0

Answer:

D. 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find g of f(x)

g(f(x)) = (x²) - 3

Step 2: Plug in -2 as <em>x</em>

g(f(x))(-2) = (-2)² - 3

g(f(x))(-2) = 4 - 3

g(f(x))(-2) = 1

The principal of a large high school wants to know if students spend more than 1 hour doing homework per night, on average. To i
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

If we define the random variable X ="time spend by the students doign homework"

And we want to tes t is students spend more than 1 hour doing homework per night, on average (alternative hypothesis), so then the system of hypothesis for this case are:

Null hypothesis: \mu \leq 1

Alternative hypothesis: \mu >1

And they wnat to use a sample size of n = 100 and a significance level of 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A hypothesis is defined as "a speculation or theory based on insufficient evidence that lends itself to further testing and experimentation. With further testing, a hypothesis can usually be proven true or false".  

The null hypothesis is defined as "a hypothesis that says there is no statistical significance between the two variables in the hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that the researcher is trying to disprove".

The alternative hypothesis is "just the inverse, or opposite, of the null hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that researcher is trying to prove".

Solution to the problem

If we define the random variable X ="time spend by the students doign homework"

And we want to tes t is students spend more than 1 hour doing homework per night, on average (alternative hypothesis), so then the system of hypothesis for this case are:

Null hypothesis: \mu \leq 1

Alternative hypothesis: \mu >1

And they wnat to use a sample size of n = 100 and a significance level of 0.05

A 10-foot ladder is leaning against a vertical wall. If the bottom of the ladder is being pulled away from the wall at the rate
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

The area is changing at 15.75 square feet per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle between the wall, the ground, and the ladder has the following dimensions:

H: is the length of the ladder (hypotenuse) = 10 ft

B: is the distance between the wall and the ladder (base) = 6 ft

L: the length of the wall (height of the triangle) =?

dB/dt = is the variation of the base of the triangle = 9 ft/s        

First, we need to find the other side of the triangle:  

H^{2} = B^{2} + L^{2}

L = \sqrt{H^{2} - B^{2}} = \sqrt{(10)^{2} - B^{2}} = \sqrt{100 - B^{2}}

Now, the area (A) of the triangle is:            

A = \frac{BL}{2}  

Hence, the rate of change of the area is given by:

\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{1}{2}[L*\frac{dB}{dt} + B\frac{dL}{dt}]      

\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{1}{2}[\sqrt{100 - B^{2}}*\frac{dB}{dt} + B\frac{d(\sqrt{100 - B^{2}})}{dt}]        

\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{1}{2}[\sqrt{100 - B^{2}}*\frac{dB}{dt} - \frac{B^{2}}{(\sqrt{100 - B^{2}})}*\frac{dB}{dt}]  

\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{1}{2}[\sqrt{100 - 6^{2}}*9 - \frac{6^{2}}{\sqrt{100 - 6^{2}}}*9]      

\frac{dA}{dt} = 15.75 ft^{2}/s  

     

Therefore, the area is changing at 15.75 square feet per second.

I hope it helps you!
