At the bottom of the motion: The potential energy of the spring is at a maximum since the spring is stretched at its maximum extension. The potential energy due to gravity is at a minimum, since the mass is lifted the least amount above ground.

diamong [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The objective is to test ESP, for this, a psychic was presented with cards face down and asked to determine if each of the cards was one of four symbols: a star, cross, circle, square.

Be X: number of times the psychic identifies the symbols on the cards correctly is a size n sample.

p the probability that the psychic identified the symbol on the cards correctly

You have to calculate the sample size n to estimate the proportion with a confidence level of 95% and a margin of error of d=0.01

The CI for the population proportion is constructed "sample proportion" ± "margin of error" Symbolically:

p' ± $Z_{1-\alpha /2} * (\sqrt{\frac{p'(1-p')}{n} } )$

Where $d= Z_{1-\alpha /2} * (\sqrt{\frac{p'(1-p')}{n} } )$ is the margin of error. As you can see, the formula contains the sample proportion (it is normally symbolized p-hat, in this explanation I'll continue to symbolize it p'), you have to do the following consideration:

Every time the psychic has to identify a card he can make two choices:

"Success" he identifies the card correctly

"Failure" he does not identify the card correctly

If we assume that each symbol has the same probability of being chosen at random P(star)=P(cross)=P(circle)=P(square)= 1/4= 0.25

Let's say, for example, that the card has the star symbol.

The probability of identifying it correctly will be P(success)= P(star)= 1/4= 0.25

And the probability of not identifying it correctly will be P(failure)= P(cross) + P(circle) + P(square)= 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4= 3/4= 0.75

So for this experiment, we'll assume the "worst case scenario" and use p'= 1/4 as the estimated probability of the psychic identifying the symbol on the card correctly.

The value of Z will be $Z_{1-\alpha /2}= Z_{0.975}= 1.96$

Now using the formula you have to clear the sample size:

$d= Z_{1-\alpha /2} * (\sqrt{\frac{p'(1-p')}{n} } )$

$\frac{d}{Z_{1-\alpha /2}} = \sqrt{\frac{p'(1-p')}{n} }$

$(\frac{d}{Z_{1-\alpha /2}})^2 =\frac{p'(1-p')}{n}$

$n*(\frac{d}{Z_{1-\alpha /2}})^2 = p'(1-p')$

$n = p'(1-p')*(\frac{Z_{1-\alpha /2}}{d})^2$

$n = (0.25*0.75)*(\frac{1.96}{0.01})^2= 7203$

To estimate p with a margin of error of 0.01 and a 95% confidence level you have to take a sample of 7203 cards.

I hope this helps!

Patrick has just finished building a pen for his new dog. The pen is 3 feet wider than it is long. He also built a doghouse to p

zalisa [80]

General Idea:

(i) Assign variable for the unknown that we need to find

(ii) Sketch a diagram to help us visualize the problem

(iii) Write the mathematical equation representing the description given.

(iv) Solve the equation by substitution method. Solving means finding the values of the variables which will make both the equation TRUE

Applying the concept:

Given: x represents the length of the pen and y represents the area of the doghouse

Statement 1: "The pen is 3 feet wider than it is long"

$Length \; of\; the \; pen = x\\ Width \; of\; the\; pen=x+3$

------

Statement 2: "He also built a doghouse to put in the pen which has a perimeter that is equal to the area of its base"

$Area \; of\; the\; Dog \; house=y\\ Perimeter \; of\; Dog\; house=y$

------

Statement 3: "After putting the doghouse in the pen, he calculates that the dog will have 178 square feet of space to run around inside the pen."

$Area \; of \; the\; Pen - Area \;of \;the\;Dog \;House=\;Space\;inside\;Pen\\ \\ x \cdot (x+3)-y=178\\ Distributing \;x\;in\;the\;left\;side\;of\;the\;equation\\ \\ x^2+3x-y=178\Rightarrow\; 1^{st}\; Equation\\$

------

Statement 4: "The perimeter of the pen is 3 times greater than the perimeter of the doghouse."

$Perimeter\; of\; the\; Pen=3\; \cdot \; Perimeter\; of\; the\; Dog\; House\\ \\ 2(x \; + \; x+3)=3 \cdot y\\ Combine\; like\; terms\; inside\; the\; parenthesis\\ \\ 2(2x+3)=3y\\ Distribute\; 2\; in\; the\; left\; side\; of\; the\; equation\\ \\ 4x+6=3y\\ Subtract \; 6\; and \; 3y\; on\; both\; sides\; of\; the\; equation\\ \\ 4x+6-3y-6=3y-3y-6\\ Combine\; like\; terms\\ \\ 4x-3y=-6 \Rightarrow \; \; 2^{nd}\; Equation\\$
