A group of two friends each received six-twelfths of a pound of candy. How much candy did they receive total?

Use the graph of the derivative of f to locate the critical points x0 at which f has neither a local maximum nor a local minimum

jok3333 [9.3K]

<span>Critical points are where the derivative is 0, i.e. where it crosses the x - axis

The Critical points lies where the derivative is 0, while it crosses the x-axis, SO, in this case the choice 3 looks like best answer for this.

How do I find the radius of a circle

katovenus [111]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Just remember to divide the diameter by two to get the radius. If you were asked to find the radius instead of the diameter, you would simply divide 7 feet by 2 because the radius is one-half the measure of the diameter. The radius of the circle is 3.5 feet. You can also use the circumference and radius equation.

A sample survey is designed to estimate the proportion of sports utility vehicles being driven in the state of California. A ran

mart [117]

Answer:

a) The 95% confidence interval would be given (0.070;0.121).

b) "increase the sample size n"

"decrease za/2 by decreasing the confidence"

Step-by-step explanation:

Notation and definitions

$X=48$ number of vehicles classified as sports utility.

$n=500$ random sample taken

$\hat p=\frac{48}{500}=0.096$ estimated proportion of vehicles classified as sports utility vehicles.

$p$ true population proportion of vehicles classified as sports utility vehicles.

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The population proportion have the following distribution

$p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}})$

(a) Use a 95% confidence interval to estimate the proportion of sports utility vehicles in California. (Round your answers to three decimal places.)

The confidence interval would be given by this formula :

$\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}$

For the 95% confidence interval the value of $\alpha=1-0.5=0.05$ and $\alpha/2=0.025$ , with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.

$z_{\alpha/2}=1.96$

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:

$0.096 - 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.096(1-0.096)}{500}}=0.070$

$0.096 + 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.096(1-0.096)}{500}}=0.121$

And the 95% confidence interval would be given (0.070;0.121).

We are confident (95%) that about 7.0% to 12.1% of vehicles in California are classified as sports utility .

(b) How can you estimate the proportion of sports utility vehicles in California with a higher degree of accuracy? (HINT: There are two answers. Select all that apply.)

For this case we just have two ways to increase the accuracy one is "increase the sample size n" since if we have a larger sample size the estimation would be more accurate. And the other possibility is "decrease za/2 by decreasing the confidence" because if we decrease the confidence level the interval would be narrower and accurate

Las fracciones que tienen denominador 10, 100, 1000, etc las llamamos fracciones decimales y a su vez las podemos escribir como

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

las fracciones decimales son:

21/10 = 2,1

439/100 = 4,39

34/10 = 3,4

35/1000 = 0,035

851 / 1000 = 0,851

Step-by-step explanation:

Toda fraccion cuyo denominador (el numero de abajo) es multiplo de 10 es considerada una fraccion decimal. No importa si el numerador es mayor al denominador. Justamente el sistema decimal fue concebido para facilitar la multiplicacion y division de los numeros por algun multiplo de 10.
