Which of the following statements is the best definition of a triptych?

The ground temperature at sea level is 60 degrees F. For every 100-foot increase in elevation, the temperature rises 1/10 of one

N76 [4]

<h3>Answer: B. 62 degrees fahrenheit</h3>

====================================================

Explanation:

x = elevation in feet

y = temperature in fahrenheit

The temperature goes up 1/10 = 0.1 degrees for every 100-foot increase of elevation. So the slope is 0.1/100 = 0.001, which tells us how fast the temperature is increasing. In other words, the temperature goes up 0.001 degrees each time the elevation goes up by 1 foot.

The ground temperature is 60 degrees, which is our starting temperature. It's the value of y when x = 0. Therefore, 60 is the y intercept.

We have a slope of m = 0.001 and a y intercept of b = 60. The equation y = mx+b becomes y = 0.1x+60

Now plug in x = 2000 to find the temperature at this elevation

y = 0.001x+60

y = 0.001*2000+60

y = 2+60

y = 62

Find the appropriate rejection regions for the large-sample test statistic z in these cases. (Round your answers to two decimal

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

a) We have that the significance is given by $\alpha =0.01$ and we know that we have a right tailed test.

So for this case we need to look in the normal standard dsitribution a critical value that accumulates 1% of the area on the right and 99% of the area on the left. This value can be founded with the following excel code:

"=NORM.INV(1-0.01,0,1)"

And we got for this case $z_{crit}=2.33$

So then the rejection region would be $z>2.33$

b) We have that the significance is given by $\alpha =0.05$ , $\alpha/2 =0.025$ and we know that we have a two tailed test.

So for this case we need to look in the normal standard dsitribution a critical value that accumulates 2.5% of the area on the right and 97.5% of the area on the left. This value can be founded with the following excel code:

"=NORM.INV(1-0.025,0,1)"

And we got for this case $z_{crit}=\pm 1.96$

So then the rejection region would be $z>1.96 \cup z$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a

We have that the significance is given by $\alpha =0.01$ and we know that we have a right tailed test.

So for this case we need to look in the normal standard dsitribution a critical value that accumulates 1% of the area on the right and 99% of the area on the left. This value can be founded with the following excel code:

"=NORM.INV(1-0.01,0,1)"

And we got for this case $z_{crit}=2.33$

So then the rejection region would be $z>2.33$

Part b

We have that the significance is given by $\alpha =0.05$ , $\alpha/2 =0.025$ and we know that we have a two tailed test.

So for this case we need to look in the normal standard dsitribution a critical value that accumulates 2.5% of the area on the right and 97.5% of the area on the left. This value can be founded with the following excel code:

"=NORM.INV(1-0.025,0,1)"

And we got for this case $z_{crit}=\pm 1.96$

So then the rejection region would be $z>1.96 \cup z$

What is an equation of a the line through (-1, -4) and parallel to the line 3x+y=5

Greeley [361]

Answer: y + 4 = -3(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to rewrite in form of y=mx+b.

3x+y=5

y = -3x + 5

The slope is -3.

In addition, the slope of two parallel line would be equal, the slope of the line would be -3.

y- y1 = m(x- x1)

y- (-4) = -3(x - -1)

y + 4 = -3(x+1)
