Answer:

(1,-25)

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe the answer is (1,-25) because when the function is graphed the vertex is at the point x=1 y=-25

A manufacturer of nails claims that only 4% of its nails are defective. A random sample of 20 nails is selected, and it is found

Answer:

The p-value of the test is 0.0853 > 0.05, which means that there is not enough evidence to reject the manufacturer's claim based on this observation.

Step-by-step explanation:

A manufacturer of nails claims that only 4% of its nails are defective.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of 4%, that is:

$H_0: p = 0.04$

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion is more than 4%, that is:

$H_a: p > 0.04$

The test statistic is:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

In which X is the sample mean, $\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis, $\sigma$ is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

4% is tested at the null hypothesis

This means that $\mu = 0.04, \sigma = \sqrt{0.04*0.96}$

A random sample of 20 nails is selected, and it is found that two of them, 10%, are defective.

This means that $n = 20, X = 0.1$

Value of the test statistic:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$z = \frac{0.1 - 0.04}{\frac{\sqrt{0.04*0.96}}{\sqrt{20}}}$

$z = 1.37$

P-value of the test and decision:

Considering an standard significance level of 0.05.

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample proportion above 0.1, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of z = 1.37.

Looking at the z-table, z = 1.37 has a p-value of 0.9147

1 - 0.9147 = 0.0853

The p-value of the test is 0.0853 > 0.05, which means that there is not enough evidence to reject the manufacturer's claim based on this observation.

Calculate had a net income of 5 million dollars in 2010, while a small competing company, Computate, had a

Answer:

a) see the attached spreadsheet (table)

b) Calculate, for a 10-year horizon; Computate for a longer horizon.

c) Year 13; no

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The attached table shows net income projections for the two companies. Calculate's increases by 0.5 million each year; Computate's increases by 15% each year. The result is rounded to the nearest dollar.

b) After year 4, Computate's net income is increasing by more than 0.5 million per year, so its growth is faster and getting faster yet. However, in the first 10 years, Calculate's net income remains higher than that of Computate. If we presume that some percentage of net income is returned to investors, then Calculate may provide a better return on investment.

The scenario given here is only interested in the first 10 years. However, beyond that time frame (see part C), we find that Computate's income growth far exceeds that of Calculate.

c) Extending the table through year 13, we see that Computate's net income exceeds Calculate's in that year. It continues to remain higher as long as the model remains valid.
