How does the y-intercept appear in these three representations: table,equation,and graph?

devlian [24]

In a table it's EXAMPLE: Cars/Drivers the cars is x and the drivers is y(y-intercept). In an equation, EXAMPLE using y=mx+b the b is the y-int., and in a graph it is (x,y) the y being the y-int.

5) In a certain supermarket, a sample of 60 customers who used a self-service checkout lane averaged 5.2 minutes of checkout tim

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

$\S^2_p =\frac{(60-1)(3.1)^2 +(72 -1)(2.8)^2}{60 +72 -2}=8.643$

$S_p=2.940$

$t=\frac{(5.2 -6.1)-(0)}{2.940\sqrt{\frac{1}{60}+\frac{1}{72}}}=-1.751$

$df=60+72-2=130$

$p_v =P(t_{130}$

Assuming a significance level of $\alpha=0.05$ we have that the p value is lower than this significance level so then we can conclude that the mean for checkout time is significantly less for people who use the self-service lane

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given

Our notation on this case :

$n_1 =60$ represent the sample size for people who used a self service

$n_2 =72$ represent the sample size for people who used a cashier

$\bar X_1 =5.2$ represent the sample mean for people who used a self service

$\bar X_2 =6.1$ represent the sample mean people who used a cashier

$s_1=3.1$ represent the sample standard deviation for people who used a self service

$s_2=2.8$ represent the sample standard deviation for people who used a cashier

Assumptions

When we have two independent samples from two normal distributions with equal variances we are assuming that

$\sigma^2_1 =\sigma^2_2 =\sigma^2$

The statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{(\bar X_1 -\bar X_2)-(\mu_{1}-\mu_2)}{S_p\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2}}}$

And t follows a t distribution with $n_1+n_2 -2$ degrees of freedom and the pooled variance $S^2_p$ is given by this formula:

$\S^2_p =\frac{(n_1-1)S^2_1 +(n_2 -1)S^2_2}{n_1 +n_2 -2}$

System of hypothesis

Null hypothesis: $\mu_1 \geq \mu_2$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu_1 < \mu_2$

This system is equivalent to:

Null hypothesis: $\mu_1 - \mu_2 \geq 0$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu_1 -\mu_2 < 0$

We can find the pooled variance:

$\S^2_p =\frac{(60-1)(3.1)^2 +(72 -1)(2.8)^2}{60 +72 -2}=8.643$

And the deviation would be just the square root of the variance:

$S_p=2.940$

The statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{(5.2 -6.1)-(0)}{2.940\sqrt{\frac{1}{60}+\frac{1}{72}}}=-1.751$

The degrees of freedom are given by:

$df=60+72-2=130$

And now we can calculate the p value with:

$p_v =P(t_{130}$

Assuming a significance level of $\alpha=0.05$ we have that the p value is lower than this significance level so then we can conclude that the mean for checkout time is significantly less for people who use the self-service lane

A wire b units long is cut into two pieces. One piece is bent into an equilateral triangle and the other is bent into a circle.

mezya [45]

1. Divide wire b in parts x and b-x.

2. Bend the b-x piece to form a triangle with side (b-x)/3

There are many ways to find the area of the equilateral triangle. One is by the formula A= $\frac{1}{2}sin60^{o}side*side= \frac{1}{2} \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} (\frac{b-x}{3}) ^{2}= \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{36}(b-x)^{2}$
A= $\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{36}(b-x)^{2}=\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{36}( b^{2}-2bx+ x^{2} )=\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{36}b^{2}-\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}bx+ \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{36}x^{2}$

Another way is apply the formula A=1/2*base*altitude,
where the altitude can be found by applying the pythagorean theorem on the triangle with hypothenuse (b-x)/3 and side (b-x)/6

3. Let x be the circumference of the circle.

$2 \pi r=x$

so $r= \frac{x}{2 \pi }$

Area of circle = $\pi r^{2}= \pi ( \frac{x}{2 \pi } )^{2} = \frac{ \pi }{ 4 \pi ^{2} }* x^{2} = \frac{1}{4 \pi } x^{2}$

4. Let f(x)= $\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{36}b^{2}-\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}bx+ \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{36}x^{2}+\frac{1}{4 \pi } x^{2}$

be the function of the sum of the areas of the triangle and circle.

5. f(x) is a minimum means f'(x)=0

f'(x)= $\frac{ -\sqrt{3} }{18}b+ \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}x+\frac{1}{2 \pi } x$ =0

$\frac{ -\sqrt{3} }{18}b+ \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}x+\frac{1}{2 \pi } x=0$

$(\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}+\frac{1}{2 \pi }) x=\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}b$

$x= \frac{\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}b}{(\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}+\frac{1}{2 \pi }) }$

6. So one part is $\frac{\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}b}{(\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}+\frac{1}{2 \pi }) }$ and the other part is b- $\frac{\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}b}{(\frac{ \sqrt{3} }{18}+\frac{1}{2 \pi }) }$
