Answer:

The law of detachment and syllogism is valid here

Explanation:

The law of detachment and syllogism is associated with inductive reasoning. This law states that a conclusion is valid if the premise or hypothesis is valid, therefore if a then b. In others a results in b.

The law of detachment is denoted

[(a→b)∧a]→b

The law of syllogism derives from the law of detachment. Syllogism says that if a results in b and b results in c, then a results in c. In other words since a causes b and b causes c, then if a then c.

It is denoted

[(a→b)∧(b→c)]→(a→c)

In the above example, given: If you live in Orlando, then you live in Florida

Morgan does not live in Orlando, therefore it is concluded that he does not live in Florida

It appears that people who are mildly obese are less active than leaner people. One study looked at the average number of minute

Molodets [167]

Answer:

10.38% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 mildly obese people exceeds 410 minutes.

99.55% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 lean people exceeds 410 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mildly obese

Normally distributed with mean 375 minutes and standard deviation 68 minutes. So $\mu = 375, \sigma = 68$

What is the probability (±0.0001) that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 mildly obese people exceeds 410 minutes?

So $n = 6, s = \frac{68}{\sqrt{6}} = 27.76$

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 410.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{410 - 375}{27.76}$

$Z = 1.26$

$Z = 1.26$ has a pvalue of 0.8962.

So there is a 1-0.8962 = 0.1038 = 10.38% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 mildly obese people exceeds 410 minutes.

Lean

Normally distributed with mean 522 minutes and standard deviation 106 minutes. So $\mu = 522, \sigma = 106$

What is the probability (±0.0001) that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 lean people exceeds 410 minutes?

So $n = 6, s = \frac{106}{\sqrt{6}} = 43.27$

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 410.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{410 - 523}{43.27}$

$Z = -2.61$

$Z = -2.61$ has a pvalue of 0.0045.

So there is a 1-0.0045 = 0.9955 = 99.55% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 lean people exceeds 410 minutes

Find the average rate of change of the function over the given intervals. f(x) = 12x3 + 12; [5,7]

AlladinOne [14]

average rate of change = (f(7) - f(5)) / (x7 - x5)
f(7) = 12 (7^3) + 12 = 4128
f(5) = 12 (5^3) + 12 = 1512

so
average rate of change = (4128 - 1512)/(7-5)
average rate of change = 2616 / 2
average rate of change = 1308

hope it helps
