$\bf slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{{{ f(x_2)}}-{{ f(x_1)}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
average\ rate\\
of\ change
\end{array}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
f(x)= x^4+3x^3-5x^2+2x-2 \qquad 
\begin{cases}
x_1=-1\\
x_2=1
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{f(1)-f(-1)}{1-(-1)}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{[1+3-5+2-2]~~-~~[1-3-5-2-2]}{1+1}\implies \cfrac{[-1]~~-~~[-11]}{2}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{-1+11}{2}\implies \cfrac{10}{2}\implies 5$

The region bounded by the given curves is rotated about the specified axis. Find the volume V of the resulting solid by any meth

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

$\frac{128\pi}{3}$ cubic units

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a region bounded by a curves $x=(y-7)^2$

x=4 and about y=5

We have to find the value of volume of the resulting solid

To find the volume of resulting solid we are using cylinder method

Substitute the values of x then we get

$(y-7)^2=4$

$y-7=\pm2$

y-7=2 and y-7=-2

y=7+2=9 and y=-2+7=5

Radius of cylinder =r=y-5

and height =h= $4-(y-7)^2=4-y^2-49+14 y=-y^2+14 y -45$

Using cylinder method and integrate along y -axis from y=5 to y=9

Volume = $\int_{a}^{b}2\pi r h dy=\int_{5}^{9}2\pi(y-5)(-y^2+14 y -45) dy$

volume= $2\pi\int_{5}^{9}(-y^3+19y^2-115y+225)dy$

Volume = $2\pi[-\frac{y^4}{4}+19\frac{y^3}{3}-115\frac{y^2}{2}+225y]^9_5$

Volume = $2\pi[-\frac{6561}{4}+\frac{625}{4}+19(\frac{729-125}{3})-115(\frac{81-25}{2})+225(9-5)]$

Volume= $2\pi(-1484+\frac{11476}{3}-3220+900)$

Volume = $2\pi(\frac{11476}{3}-3804)$

Volume = $2\pi(\frac{11476-11412}{3})=\frac{128\pi}{3}$

Hence, volume of resulting solid = $\frac{128\pi}{3}$ cubic units

A machine, when working properly, produces 5% or less defective items. Whenever the machine produces significantly greater than

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

The pvalue of the test is 0.0007 < 0.01, which means that we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis that the percentage of defective items produced by this machine is greater than 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

A machine, when working properly, produces 5% or less defective items.

This means that the null hypothesis is:

$H_0: p \leq 0.05$

Test if the percentage of defective items produced by this machine is greater than 5%.

This means that the alternate hypothesis is:

$H_a: p > 0.05$

The test statistic is:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

In which X is the sample mean, $\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis, $\sigma$ is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.05 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that $\mu = 0.05, \sigma = \sqrt{0.05*0.95}$

A random sample of 300 items taken from the production line contained 27 defective items.

This means that $n = 300, X = \frac{27}{300} = 0.09$

Value of the test statistic:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$z = \frac{0.09 - 0.05}{\frac{\sqrt{0.05*0.95}}{\sqrt{300}}}$

$z = 3.18$

Pvalue of the test:

Testing if the mean is greater than a value, which means that the pvalue of the test is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z = 3.18, which is the probability of a finding a sample proportion of 0.09 or higher.

Looking at the Z-table, Z = 3.18 has a pvalue of 0.9993

1 - 0.9993 = 0.0007

Help Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kamila [148]

Answer:

x = 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle on a straight line = 180°

(x + 40)° + (x - 20)° = 180°

x + 40° + x - 20° = 180°

2x + 20° = 180°

2x = 180° - 20°

2x = 160°

x = 160°/2

x = 80°

Check:

(x + 40)° + (x - 20)° = 180°

(80° + 40°) + (80° - 20°) = 180°

120° + 60° = 180°

180° = 180°
