The expression 3t gives the number of tickets a player wins if he shoots the ball in the hoop t times. How many tickets would a

Answer: 48 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the expression that gives the number of tickets a player wins if he shoots the ball in the hoop t times is expressed as 3t.

Therefore, the number of tickets that a player wins if he shoots the ball in the hoop 16 times will be:

= 3t

where,

t = 16

Therefore, 3t = 3 × 16 = 48

The player wins 48 tickets.

The desired percentage of SiO2 in a certain type of aluminous cement is 5.5. To test whether the true average percentage is 5.5
miskamm [114]

Answer:  

z=-3.25

p_v =2*P(z  

Step-by-step explanation:  

1) Data given and notation  

\bar X=5.24 represent the mean production for the sample  

\sigma=0.32 represent the sample standard deviation for the sample  

n=16 sample size  

\mu_o =5.5 represent the value that we want to test  

\alph=0.05a represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

Part a: State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean production is different from 5.5 tons, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu =5.5  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 5.5  

If we analyze the info given we know the population deviation so is better apply a z test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)  

z-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic  

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

z=\frac{5.24-5.5}{\frac{0.32}{\sqrt{16}}}=-3.25  

P-value

Since this is a two side test the p value would be:  

p_v =2*P(z  

Conclusion  

If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the production its significant different compared to the desired percentage of SiO2 of 5.5 at 5% of signficance.

1) Let f(x)=6x+6/x. Find the open intervals on which f is increasing (decreasing). Then determine the x-coordinates of all relat
brilliants [131]

Answer:

1) increasing on (-∞,-1] ∪ [1,∞), decreasing on [-1,0) ∪ (0,1]

x = -1 is local maximum, x = 1 is local minimum

2) increasing on [1,∞), decreasing on (-∞,0) ∪ (0,1]

x = 1 is absolute minimum

3) increasing on (-∞,0] ∪ [8,∞), decreasing on [0,4) ∪ (4,8]

x = 0 is local maximum, x = 8 is local minimum

4) increasing on [2,∞), decreasing on (-∞,2]

x = 2 is absolute minimum

5) increasing on the interval (0,4/9], decreasing on the interval [4/9,∞)

x = 0 is local minimum, x = 4/9 is absolute maximum

Step-by-step explanation:

To find minima and maxima the of the function, we must take the derivative and equalize it to zero to find the roots.

1) f(x) = 6x + 6/x

f\prime(x) = 6 - 6/x^2 = 0 and x \neq 0

So, the roots are x = -1 and x = 1

The function is increasing on the interval (-∞,-1] ∪ [1,∞)

The function is decreasing on the interval [-1,0) ∪ (0,1]

x = -1 is local maximum, x = 1 is local minimum.

2) f(x)=6-4/x+2/x^2

f\prime(x)=4/x^2-4/x^3=0 and x \neq 0

So the root is x = 1

The function is increasing on the interval [1,∞)

The function is decreasing on the interval (-∞,0) ∪ (0,1]

x = 1 is absolute minimum.

3) f(x) = 8x^2/(x-4)

f\prime(x) = (8x^2-64x)/(x-4)^2=0 and x \neq 4

So the roots are x = 0 and x = 8

The function is increasing on the interval (-∞,0] ∪ [8,∞)

The function is decreasing on the interval [0,4) ∪ (4,8]

x = 0 is local maximum, x = 8 is local minimum.

4) f(x)=6(x-2)^{2/3} +4=0

f\prime(x) = 4/(x-2)^{1/3} has no solution and x = 2 is crtitical point.

The function is increasing on the interval [2,∞)

The function is decreasing on the interval (-∞,2]

x = 2 is absolute minimum.

5) f(x)=8\sqrt x - 6x for x>0

f\prime(x) = (4/\sqrt x)-6 = 0

So the root is x = 4/9

The function is increasing on the interval (0,4/9]

The function is decreasing on the interval [4/9,∞)

x = 0 is local minimum, x = 4/9 is absolute maximum.

Given: QR = 59; RT = 59 Prove: QR = RT StatementsReason 1. QR = 59; RT = 591. Given 2. 59 = RT2. Symmetric Property of Equality
Studentka2010 [4]
Statement 3 is QR=RT. This can be validified by the reason of Transitive Property of Equality. This property is applied when the situation is if a=c and b=c, then a=b. The same is true for QR=59 and RT=59, then QR=RT.

If Javier has a car with a mass of 250,000 kg and it is acted upon with a force of 300 Newtons. What is the acceleration?
natima [27]

Answer:

<u>The acceleration is 0.0012 meters/seconds²</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to answer the question correctly:

Mass = 250,000 kg

Force = 300 Newtons

2. What is the acceleration?

Based on Newton's Second Law of Motion, let's recall that:

Force = Mass * Acceleration

Acceleration = Force/Mass

Replacing with the real values, we have:

Acceleration = 300/250,0000

Acceleration = 0.0012 meters/seconds² (we can't express acceleration using Newtons/kilograms as the unit).
