Rational roots of f(x)=5x^2-3x+3

Stella [2.4K]

*Given
Money of Phoebe - 3 times as much as Andy
Money of Andy - 2 times as much as Polly
Total money of Phoebe, - £270
 Andy and Polly

*Solution

Let
B - Phoebe's money
A - Andy's money
L - Polly's money

1. The money of the Phoebe, Andy, and Polly, when added together would total £270. Thus,

B + A + L = £270 (EQUATION 1)

2. Phoebe has three times as much money as Andy and this is expressed as

B = 3A

3. Andy has twice as much money as Polly and this is expressed as

A = 2L (EQUATION 2)

4. This means that Phoebe has ____ as much money as Polly,

B = 3A
B = 3 x (2L)
B = 6L (EQUATION 3)

This step allows us to eliminate the variables B and A in EQUATION 1 by expressing the equation in terms of Polly's money only.

5. Substituting B with 6L, and A with 2L, EQUATION 1 becomes,

6L + 2L + L = £270
 9L = £270
 L = £30

So, Polly has £30.

6. Substituting L into EQUATIONS 2 and 3 would give us the values for Andy's money and Phoebe's money, respectively.

A = 2L
A = 2(£30)
A = £60

Andy has £60

B = 6L
B = 6(£30)
B = £180

Phoebe has £180

Therefore, Polly's money is £30, Andy's is £60, and Phoebe's is £180.

The independent-samples t testResearch Scenario: A forensic psychologist has developed a new program that teaches empathy and po

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The researcher developed a treatment to teach social skills to youth offenders. To test if the treatment is effective in increasing empathy compared to the standard treatment she randomly selected a group of 9 offenders and applied the new treatment and to another group of 9 randomly selected youth offenders, she applied the standard treatment. (Note: the data corresponds to two samples of 9 units each, so I've used those sizes to conduct the test)

At the end of the treatment, she administers BES to measure their empathy levels. Her claim is that the offenders that received the new treatment will have higher BES scores than those who received the standard treatment.

1) Using the records obtained for both groups, she intends to conduct an independent t-test to analyze her claim.

X₁: BES results of a youth offender treated with the new treatment.

X₂: BES results of a youth offender treated with the standard treatment.

H₀: μ₁ = μ₂

H₁: μ₁ ≠ μ₂

α:0.05

test statistic

$t_{H_0}= -0.32$

p-value: 0.7517

The p-value is greater than the significance level so the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis. This means that at a 5% significance level you can conclude that there is no difference between the mean BES scores of the youth offenders treated with the new treatment and the mean BES score of the youth offenders treated with the standard treatment. The new treatment doesn't increase the levels of social empathy of the youth offenders.

I hope this helps

The data represents the number of runs allowed by 8 college softball pitchers. {18, 49, 38, 41, 33, 44, 42, 22}

lawyer [7]

This Question is incomplete

Complete Question:

The data represents the number of runs allowed by 8 college softball pitchers. {18, 49, 38, 41, 33, 44, 42, 22}

What is the five number summary:

a) Minimum

b) Q₁

c) Median

d) Q₃

e) Maximum

Answer:

a) Minimum = 18

b) Q₁ = 27.5

c) Median = 39.5

d) Q₃ = 43

e) Maximum = 49

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above diagram, we were given the following set of data.

{18, 49, 38, 41, 33, 44, 42, 22}

Before answering any of the questions, we have to rearrange the data from the lowest to the highest (ascending order). Hence, we have:

{18, 22, 33, 38, 41, 42, 44, 49}

a) Minimum

{18, 22, 33, 38, 41, 42, 44, 49}

Looking at this set of arranged data, the minimum number is the least or lowest number.

This number is 18

b) Q₁

{18, 22, 33, 38, 41, 42, 44, 49}

Q₁ means First Quartile. The formula is = ¼(n + 1)th value

n = Number of terms in the data set = 8

= ¼(8 + 1)th value

= ¼(9)th value

= 2 1/4 value

= 2.25 value

In the above Question, the 2.25 value is the value between the second and third number.

Hence:

22+33/2 = 55/2 = 27.5

Therefore, Q₁ = 27.5

c) Median

{18, 22, 33, 38, 41, 42, 44, 49}

The median of the number is the number in the middle

For this data, we have 8 number, Hence the median is the sum of the 4th and 5th term divided by 2

4th term = 38

5th term = 41

= 38 + 41/ 2 = 79/2

= 39.5

Hence, the median = 39.5

d) Q₃

{18, 22, 33, 38, 41, 42, 44, 49}

Q₃ means Third Quartile. The formula is = ¾(n + 1)th value

n = Number of terms in the data set = 8

= ¾(8 + 1)th value

= ¾(9)th value

= 6 3/4 value

= 6.75 value

In the above Question, the 6.75 value is the value between the sixth and seventh number.

Hence:

42+44/2 = 86/2 = 43

Therefore, Q₃ = 43

e) Maximum

{18, 22, 33, 38, 41, 42, 44, 49}

Looking at this set of arranged data, the Maximum number is the highest number.

This number is 49
