The number A is 16.
A=16, B=9
16+9=25
1/4(16)=4
1/3(9)=3
4 is 1 more than 3.

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The appropriate null hypothesis is $H_0: p = 0.25$

The appropriate alternative hypothesis is $H_1: p < 0.25$

Step-by-step explanation:

Exactly a year prior to this poll, in June of 2004, it was estimated that roughly 1 out of every 4 U.S. adults believed (at that time) that the war in Iraq was the most important problem facing the country.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is still the same, that is, of $\frac{1}{4} = 0.25$ . So

$H_0: p = 0.25$

We would like to test whether the 2005 poll provides significant evidence that the proportion of U.S. adults who believe that the war in Iraq is the most important problem facing the U.S. has decreased since the prior poll.

Decreased, so at the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the proportion is less than 0.25, that is:

$H_1: p < 0.25$

What set of transformations could be applied to rectangle ABCD to create A″B″C″D″? 'Rectangle formed by ordered pairs A at negat

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Reflection over the y-axis and rotation of 180°

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

Rectangle ABCD with co-ordinates A(-4,2), B(-4,1), C(-1,1) and D(-1,2).

It is transformed to a new rectangle A'B'C'D' with co-ordinates A'(-4,-2), B'(-4,-1), C'(-1,-1) and D'(-1,-2).

The graph of both the triangles is shown below.

we see that,

The rectangle ABCD is reflected about y-axis and then rotated 180° to obtain A'B'C'D'.

Reflected about y-axis Rotation of 180°

A= (-4,2) (4,2) A'= (-4,-2)

B= (-4,1) (4,1) B'= (-4,-1)

C= (-1,1) (1,1) C'= (-1,-1)

D= (-1,2) (1,2) D'= (-1,-2)

Hence, the second rectangle is formed by: Reflection over the y-axis and rotation of 180°.

Answer:

(a) $x=\dfrac{\pi}{8},\dfrac{3\pi}{8},\dfrac{9\pi}{8},\dfrac{11\pi}{8}$

(b) $x=\dfrac{3\pi}{2},\dfrac{\pi}{6},\dfrac{5\pi}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that $0\leq x\leq 2\pi$ .

(a)

$\sqrt{2}\sin 2x=1$

$\sin 2x=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}$

$\sin 2x=\dfrac{\pi}{4}$

$2x=\dfrac{\pi}{4},\dfrac{3\pi}{4},\dfrac{9\pi}{4},\dfrac{11\pi}{4}$ $[\because \sin x=\sin y\Rightarrow x=n\pi+(-1)^ny]$

$x=\dfrac{\pi}{8},\dfrac{3\pi}{8},\dfrac{9\pi}{8},\dfrac{11\pi}{8}$

(b)

$\csc^2 x-\csc x-2=0$

$\csc^2 x-2\csc x+\csc x-2=0$

$\csc x(\csc x-2)+1(\csc x-2)=0$

$(\csc x+1)(\csc x-2)=0$

$\csc x=-1\text{ or }\csc x=2$

$\sin x=-1\text{ or }\sin x=\dfrac{1}{2}$ $[\because \sin x=\dfrac{1}{\csc x}]$

$x=\dfrac{3\pi}{2}\text{ or }x=\dfrac{\pi}{6},\dfrac{5\pi}{6}$

Therefore, $x=\dfrac{3\pi}{2},\dfrac{\pi}{6},\dfrac{5\pi}{6}$ .

Solve the quadratic equation by completing the square.

ivolga24 [154]

X^2 - 10x + 15 = 0
x^2 - 10x = -15
x^2 - 10x + 25 = -15 + 25
(x - 5)^2 = 10 <====
x - 5 = (+-)sqrt 10
x = 5 (+-) sqrt 10

solutions are :
x = 5 + sqrt 10 and x = 5 - sqrt 10
