Which of the following is a solution of y > |x| - 5? a.(4, -1) B.(-1, -4) C.(-4, 1)
1 answer:
Fill your inequality in with the y and x provided and then do the math. (4, -1) would fill in like this (I will use brackets to indicate absolute value symbols, since there are none in the equation editor): ![-1\ \textgreater \ [4]-5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-1%5C%20%5Ctextgreater%20%5C%20%5B4%5D-5)
The right side is in fact equal to the left side so that's not the answer. For (-1, -4): ![-4\ \textgreater \ [-1]-5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=-4%5C%20%5Ctextgreater%20%5C%20%5B-1%5D-5)
and these are also equal. Let's try C now (-4, 1): ![1\ \textgreater \ [-4]-5](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=1%5C%20%5Ctextgreater%20%5C%20%5B-4%5D-5)
. The absolute vale of -4 is 4 so 4 - 5 = -1 which is, in fact, less than 1. So C is our answer.

Answer:
0.007 = 0.7% probability that the proportion of Rolls Royce owners in a sample of 595 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
Normal Probability Distribution:
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the z-score of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean and standard deviation
, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean
and standard deviation
.
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean and standard deviation
A statistician calculates that 8% of Americans own a Rolls Royce.
This means that
Sample of 595:
This means that
Mean and standard deviation:
What is the probability that the proportion of Rolls Royce owners in a sample of 595 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%?
Proportion above 8% + 3% = 11% or below 8% - 3% = 5%. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, these probabilities are equal, and so we find one of them and multiply by 2.
Probability the proportion is less than 5%:
P-value of Z when X = 0.05. So
By the Central Limit Theorem
has a p-value of 0.0035
2*0.0035 = 0.0070
0.007 = 0.7% probability that the proportion of Rolls Royce owners in a sample of 595 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%
Answer:
The distance is or
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope of parallel: 2
Slope of perpendicular: -1/2
Pick a point for y =2x + 7. For example (0,7)
Use the perpendicular slope to get to the other line to find the other point of y=2x-3. Look at the screenshot...I got (4,5).
Distance formula
Insert (0,7) and (4,5)
=
