It is recommended that adults get 8 hours of sleep each night. A researcher hypothesized college students got less than the reco

mmended number of hours of sleep each night, on average. The researcher randomly sampled 20 college students and found no evidence to reject the null hypothesis at the 5% significance level. What is true regarding the p-value from this hypothesis test?

Answer:

Given:

Sample size, n = 20

Significance level = 5% = 0.05

Mean, u = 8

Here, the sample mean was not given.

Here the null and alternative hypothesis will be:

H0 : u = 8

H1 : u < 8

In this case, since there is no evidence to reject the null hypothesis, H0, at 0.05 level of significance, we can say that the p-value is greater than the level of significance, 0.05.

(1+cos2x)/(1-cos2x) = cot^2x

sesenic [268]

We will turn the left side into the right side.

$\dfrac{1 + \cos 2x}{1 - \cos2x} = \cot^2 x$

Use the identity:

$\cos 2x = \cos^2 x - \sin^2 x$

$\dfrac{1 + \cos^2 x - \sin^2 x}{1 - ( \cos^2 x - \sin^2 x)} = \cot^2 x$

$\dfrac{1 - \sin^2 x + \cos^2 x }{1 - \cos^2 x + \sin^2 x} = \cot^2 x$

Now use the identity

$\sin^2 x + \cos^2 x = 1$ solved for sin^2 x and for cos^2 x.

$\dfrac{\cos^2 x + \cos^2 x }{\sin^2 x + \sin^2 x} = \cot^2 x$

$\dfrac{2\cos^2 x}{2\sin^2 x} = \cot^2 x$

$\dfrac{\cos^2 x}{\sin^2 x} = \cot^2 x$

$\cot^2 x = \cot^2 x$

At the Hula Factory, the assembly line produces 212 leis in a batch. The leis are packaged in boxes with 30 each. If 14 batches

nikklg [1K]

Answer:

197 leis left over

Step-by-step explanation:

14 times 212 = 2968

2968/30 = 98.93

212 times 0.93 = 197

98 packages and 197 leis left over

Calculate the average rate of change of f(x) = 1 x - x2 - 2 for 3 ≤ x ≤ 6. A) -163 18 B) -18 163 C) 163 18 D) 18 163

larisa86 [58]

To solve this we are going to use the average rate of change formula: $A(x)= \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$
where
$A(x)$ is the average rate of change of the function
$f(a)$ is the position function evaluated at $a$
$f(b)$ is the position function evaluated at $b$
$a$ is the first point in the interval
$b$ is the second point in the interval

We can infer for our problem that the first point is 3 and the second point is 6, so $a=3$ and $b=6$ . Lets replace those values in our formula:
$A(x)= \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}$
$A(x)= \frac{f(6)-f(3)}{6-3}$
$A(x)= \frac{6-6^2-2-(3-3^2-2)}{3}$
$A(x)= \frac{-32-(-8)}{3}$
$A(x)= \frac{-32+8}{3}$
$A(x)= \frac{-24}{3}$
$A(x)=-8$

We can conclude that the average rate of change of the function f(x) = 1 x - x2 - 2 for <span>3 ≤ x ≤ 6 is -8</span>
