Answer:

Probability that the proportion of airborne viruses in a sample of 529 viruses would be greater than 8% is 0.9545.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the given population the distribution of air-borne viruses is given as 6%. Now for this the value of Z score is given as

Z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}}

Here

  • \hat{p} is the sample measure which is 8% or 0.08
  • p is the population measure which is 6% or 0.06
  • n is the number of samples which is 529

So the Z score is given as

Z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}}\\Z=\dfrac{0.08-0.06}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.08(1-0.08)}{529}}}\\Z=\dfrac{0.02}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.08(0.92)}{529}}}\\Z=\dfrac{0.02}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.0736}{529}}}\\Z=\dfrac{0.02}{0.01179}\\Z=1.6955

For this the score, the value of probability is calculated from the table as below:

P(\hat{p}>0.08)=p(Z>1.6955)\\=1-p(Z

Here value of p(Z<-1.6955) is given as 0.0455

P(\hat{p}>0.08)=p(Z>1.6955)\\P(\hat{p}>0.08)=1-p(Z0.08)=1-0.0455\\P(\hat{p}>0.08)=0.9545

x is the independent variable.

y is the dependent variable.

-3 is the rate of change (slope).

-7 is the initial value.

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the linear relation is y = m x + b, where

  • m is the rate of change (slope)
  • b is the initial value(value of y at x = 0)
  • x is the independent variable
  • y is the dependent variable

∵ The equation of the line is y = -3 x - 7

- Compare it with the form above

∴ m = -3

∵ m is the rate of change

∴ The rate of change is -3

∴ b = -7

∵ b is the initial value

∴ The initial value is -7

∵ y depends on x

∴ x is the independent variable

∴ y is the dependent variable

x is the independent variable.

y is the dependent variable.

-3 is the rate of change (slope)

-7 is the initial value.

1 and 2 are complementary angles. 1 and 3 are vertical angles. If
Marizza181 [45]

If angle 1 and angle 2 are <u>complementary, </u>then they add up to 90 degrees. We are given that angle 2 equals 52 degrees.

So we subtract and get our answer:

38

That's NOT the final answer.

The next step is:

Angle 1 and angle 3 are vertical angles.

Vertical angles are congruent.

So if angle 1 is 38, then angle 3 is also 38.

Now, supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees.

So that's the answer:

180-38=142

142 is the supplement of angle 3.

Hope it helps! :)

Gwen, Tristan, and Keith like to work out at the gym. They each have an app on their phone that estimates the calories they burn
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Part A:

Gwen has already burned 100 calories when Tristan and Keith started, and he continues to burn 10 calories per minute. The equation for Gwen is

y = 100 + 10x

Part B:

Tristan is burning 125 calories every 10 minutes. His burning calories rate is 12.5 calories per minute. The equation for Tristan is

y = 12.5x

Part C:

Keith is burning 300 calories in 30 minutes. His rate per minute is 10 calories per minute. The equation for Keith is

y = 10x

Part D:

Just follow the instructions and do the thing for the app. You can then answer the questions it is very easy.

Part E:

Do the same for E after you do Part D.

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the additive version of the complex number -8+3i
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

8-3i

Step-by-step explanation:

The complex additive inverse is the number we need to add so that we get zero.  It is the negative of the number.

a + bi is –(a + bi) = –a – bi.

a+bi + (-a+-bi) = a-a + bi-bi = 0

The complex additive invers of -8+3i is

-(-8+3i)

Distribute the negative

8 -3i
