How does a quadratic function differ from that of a linear or exponential

1 answer:

3 0

Hello,

A linear function is a polynomial function of degree 1
(1,2,3,4,5,6,....)
A quadratic function is a polynomial function of degree 2
(1,4,9,16,25,49,64,81,...)
A exponential function is not a polynomial function (we may imagine a infinity degree)
(1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,1024,...)

What percent of 1/4 is 2/3 and what percent of 1/6 is 2/3 ?

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

The percentages are 267% and 400% respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answers of these, you need to divide the second number by the first. This will give you the percentage.

2/3 ÷ 1/4 = 8/3 = 2.67 = 267%

You can do the same for the second one.

2/3 ÷ 1/6 = 12/3 = 4 = 400%

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

1) p1=0.83

2) p2=0.81

3) Option B

4) p=0.82

5) s=0.03

6) z=0.67

7) P=0.50

8) Do not reject H0

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The proportion of Republicans who think the full-body scans should be applied in airports is equal to the ratio between the republicans that think it should over the total Republicans in the poll:

$p=X/n=258/311=0.83$

2) The proportion of Democrats who think the full-body scans should be applied in airports is equal to:

$p=X/n=294/363=0.81$

3) As we want to know if there is a difference in the proportions calculated, not if one is higher or lower than the other, the correct option is B:

$H_0:p_1-p_2=0\\\\H_a:p_1-p_2\neq0$

4) The pooled estimate of a proportion is the average of both proportions:

$\bar{p}=\frac{p_1+p_2}{2}= \frac{0.83+0.81}{2}=0.82$

5) The standard error can be calculated as:

$s=\sqrt{\frac{\bar{p}(1-\bar{p})}{n_1} +\frac{\bar{p}(1-\bar{p})}{n_2}} \\\\s=\sqrt{\frac{0.82*0.18}{311} +\frac{0.82*0.18}{363}} \\\\s=\sqrt{0.00047+0.00041} =\sqrt{0.00088}=0.03$

6) The z-statistic can be calculated as:

$z=\frac{p_1-p_2}{s}=\frac{0.83-0.81}{0.03}=\frac{0.02}{0.03}=0.67$

7) The P-value for z=0.67 is P=0.50 (from the standard normal distribution table).

$2P(Z>|z|)=0.50286$

8) If the significance level is 0.01, the P-value is bigger than the significance level. The effect is not significanct. The null hypothesis is not rejected.

There is not enough evidence to say that both proportions are different.
