The pupil of the eye can dilate. Pupils dilate if you are in darker locations to let more light enter the eye for site. However, if the pupils are very dilated, even when a light is shined on the eye, this indicates something is wrong with the patient. Pupil dilation is measured in millimeters.

Because the coefficient of x^2 is -1, we know that a will be -1.  Knowing that the coefficient of x is -4, we can calculate that p=2.  Thus, we have -1(x+2)^2+q is our equation.  This is equal to -x^2-4x-4+q.  As the constant term must be 2, we can then see that q is 6.

As such, we have -1(x+2)^2+6=0 as our factorization.

To solve this equation, we can use the quadratic formula.  Plugging in values, we have:

\frac{4+-2 \sqrt{6} }{-2}
which is equal to: (when the fraction is simplified)
-2+- \sqrt{6}

Kim is 5 years older than her brother Jack. If the sum of their ages is 21, find each of their ages.
yarga [219]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • Kim is 13
  • Jack is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let k represent Kim's age. Then Jack's age is k-5 and the total of their ages is ...

  k + (k -5) = 21

  2k = 26 . . . . . . . add 5, collect terms

  k = 13 . . . . . . . . . divide by 2; Kim's age

  k -5 = 8 . . . . . . . Jack's age

Kim is 13; Jack is 8.

A company surveyed 2400 men where 1248 of the men identified themselves as the primary grocery shopper in their household. ​a) E
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

a) With a confidence level of 98%, the percentage of all males who identify themselves as the primary grocery shopper are between 0.4962 and 0.5438.

b) The lower limit of the confidence interval is higher that 0.43, so if he conduct a hypothesis test, he will find that the data shows evidence to said that the fraction is higher than 43%.

c) \alpha =1-0.98=0.02

Step-by-step explanation:

If np' and n(1-p') are higher than 5, a confidence interval for the proportion is calculated as:

p'-z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{p'(1-p')}{n} }\leq  p\leq p'+z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{p'(1-p')}{n} }

Where p' is the proportion of the sample, n is the size of the sample, p is the proportion of the population and z_{\alpha/2} is the z-value that let a probability of \alpha/2 on the right tail.

Then, a 98% confidence interval for the percentage of all males who identify themselves as the primary grocery shopper can be calculated replacing p' by 0.52, n by 2400, \alpha by 0.02 and z_{\alpha/2} by 2.33

Where p' and \alpha are calculated as:

p' = \frac{1248}{2400}=0.52\\\alpha =1-0.98=0.02

So, replacing the values we get:

0.52-2.33\sqrt{\frac{0.52(1-0.52)}{2400} }\leq  p\leq 0.52+2.33\sqrt{\frac{0.52(1-0.52)}{2400} }\\0.52-0.0238\leq p\leq 0.52+0.0238\\0.4962\leq p\leq 0.5438

With a confidence level of 98%, the percentage of all males who identify themselves as the primary grocery shopper are between 0.4962 and 0.5438.

The lower limit of the confidence interval is higher that 0.43, so if he conduct a hypothesis test, he will find that the data shows evidence to said that the fraction is higher than 43%.

Finally, the level of significance is the probability to reject the null hypothesis given that the null hypothesis is true. It is also the complement of the level of confidence. So, if we create a 98% confidence interval, the level of confidence 1-\alpha is equal to 98%

It means the the level of significance \alpha is:

\alpha =1-0.98=0.02

What is the area of a sector with a central angle of 8 π/11 radians and a radius of 7.2 ft? use 3.14 for π and round your final
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

59.19 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area of the circle

The area of the circle is equal to

A=\pi r^{2}

we have

r=7.2\ ft

\pi =3.14

substitute

A=(3.14)(7.2)^{2}

A=162.78\ ft^2

step 2

we know that

The area of a circle subtends a central angle of 2π radians

so

using proportion

Find out the area of a sector with a central angle of 8 π/11 radians

\frac{162.78}{2\pi }\frac{ft^2}{rad} =\frac{x}{(8\pi/11)}\frac{ft^2}{rad} \\\\x=162.78(8/11)/2\\\\x=59.19\ ft^2
