Answer:

Part a) Is a growth function

Part b) The function's percent rate of change is 160%

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$f(x)=0.3(2.6^x)$

This is a exponential function of the form

$f(x)=a(b^x)$

where

a is the initial value or y-intercept

b is the base of the exponential function

If b> 1---> we have a growth function

if b< 1---> is a decay function

r is the percent rate of change

b=(1+r)

In this problem we have

$a=0.3$

$b=2.6$

The value of b >1

Is a growth function

Find the value of r

$r=b-1=2.6-1=1.6$

convert to percentage

$r=1.6*100=160\%$

Answer:

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is higher than 75, the system of hypothesis are :

Null hypothesis: $\mu \leq 75$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu > 75$

A. One-Tailed

$z=\frac{82.2-75}{\frac{10.4}{\sqrt{10}}}=2.189$

$p_v =P(z>2.189)=0.0143$

If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.01$ we see that $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

We have the following data: 84 94 80 88 77 68 90 74 96 71

We can calculate the sample mean with the following formula:

$\bar X =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}$

And replacing we got:

$\bar X=82.2$ represent the sample mean

$\sigma=10.4$ represent the population standard deviation

$n=10$ sample size

$\mu_o =75$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.01$ 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)

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is higher than 75, the system of hypothesis are :

Null hypothesis: $\mu \leq 75$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu > 75$

A. One-Tailed

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

$z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (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:

$z=\frac{82.2-75}{\frac{10.4}{\sqrt{10}}}=2.189$

P-value

Since is a ONE-TAILED test the p value would given by:

$p_v =P(z>2.189)=0.0143$

Conclusion

If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.01$ we see that $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.

the smiths spend 11% of their budget on entertainment. their total budget this year is $1,000 more than last year, and this year

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer: $41000 Was the Smiths family budget last year.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you take $4620 and DIVIDE it by .11 you will get $42000 and since last year had $1000 less to spend you subtract $1000 from $42000 to get $41000 for the budget last year.

Out of 70 student 70% passed how many student passed

topjm [15]

70% = 0.70

70 * 0.70 = 49

so 49 students passed

Wheel world sold 875 cars last year if the sales this year are 120% of sales last year how many cars will they sell this year

inn [45]

okay so first you wanna turn that 120% into a decimal and the decimal form of that would be 1.2 or 1.20

Secondly you want to multiply 875 by the 1.2

875*1.2 = 1050

So if they sell 120% of last years sales they will sell 1050 cars this year.

Hope this helped :)
