For what values of p will the equation x^2 =p have 2 real number solutions

Solve for the missing side labeled "x."

agasfer [191]

Answer:

x = 6.3375

Step-by-step explanation:

sin53 = 4/5 (roughly) = 5.07/x

=> 4x = 25.35

=> x = 6.3375

The average yield of the standard variety off soybeans per acre on a farm in a region is 48.8 bushels per acre, with a standard

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

$z=\frac{53.4-48.8}{\frac{12}{\sqrt{36}}}=2.3$

$p_v =P(Z>2.3)=1-P(Z$

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, so we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly higher than 48.8 at 1% of signficance.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

$\bar X=53.4$ represent the sample mean

$\sigma=12$ represent the population standard deviation assumed

$n=36$ sample size

$\mu_o =48.8$ 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)

2) State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean is higher than 48.8, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu \leq 48$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu > 48$

Since we assume that 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".

3) Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$z=\frac{53.4-48.8}{\frac{12}{\sqrt{36}}}=2.3$

4)P-value

Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(Z>2.3)=1-P(Z$

5) 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, so we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly higher than 48.8 at 1% of signficance.

What is the rate of decay for the function f(x) =2(0.95)^x ( x is on top of the parentheses)

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The decay rate is 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a substance is decaying at the rate of r% per hour from the initial value of P for t hours, then the final value of the substance is given by the function

$f(t) = P(1 - \frac{r}{100})^{t}$ ........... (1)
