Flura [38]3 years ago

Answers:

  1. Have a common difference
  2. Have a common factor
  3. Have a linear first difference

============================================================

Explanation:

Linear functions, such as y = 2x+5, have a common difference. In that example, the common difference would be 2 since we add 2 to each term to get the next one. Consider when x = 1 and that leads to y = 7. Then when x = 2, we have y = 9. Then when x = 3, we have y = 11, and so on. The sequence of y values {7,9,11,...} shows we add 2 each time.

------------------

Exponential functions have us multiply the previous term by some common factor to get the next term. A sequence like {2,6,18,...} has us multiply by 3 each time and the exponential function modeling this sequence is y = 2(3)^(x-1) where x is a natural number. So this is an example showing that exponential functions have a common factor, or we can call this a common ratio.

------------------

Quadratic functions are a bit strange.

Let's consider the quadratic of y = x^2. The sequence of y values it generates is {1,4,9,16,25...} for positive integers x = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5....

Let's subtract the adjacent terms (larger - smaller)

  • 4-1 = 3
  • 9-4 = 5
  • 16-9 = 7
  • 25-16 = 9

Note the results of 3,5,7,9 are in a linear sequence (we're adding 2 to each increment value, so the next increment would be +11). We can consider this a linear first difference.

------------------

For any of these functions, I'm restricting x to be an integer and x = 1 is the smallest input possible.

Frankie wants to build a path from one corner of his hard to the opposite corner his yard measures 20ft x 32ft what will be the
Papessa [141]

Answer:

37.7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Measurements of Frankie's yard = 20ft x 32ft

He wants to build a path from one corner to another.

To find:

The length of path = ?

Solution:

Let us consider a rectangle ABCD as shown in the attached image in the answer area.

We are given the two adjacent sides of a rectangle and we have to find diagonal of the rectangle.

To find the diagonal, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem.

We are given the base and perpendicular of the right angled triangle and we have to find the hypotenuse.

According to Pythagorean theorem:

\text{Hypotenuse}^{2} = \text{Base}^{2} + \text{Perpendicular}^{2}

Diagonal = 20^2 + 32^2\\\Rightarrow Diagonal = 400 + 1024\\\Rightarrow Diagonal = \bold{37.7\ ft}

Translate each of the following research questions into appropriate H0 and Ha.
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

a)

H_{0}: \mu = 62500\text{ dollars per year}\\H_A: \mu > 62500\text{ dollars per year}

b)

H_{0}: \mu = 2.6\text{ hours}\\H_A: \mu \neq 2.6\text{ hours}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to build appropriate null and alternate hypothesis for the given scenarios.

a) Population mean, μ = $62,500 per year

The market research wants to find whether the mean household income of mall shoppers is higher than that of the general population.

H_{0}: \mu = 62500\text{ dollars per year}\\H_A: \mu > 62500\text{ dollars per year}

We would use one-tail(right) test to perform this hypothesis.

b) Population mean, μ = 2.6 hours

The company want to know the average time to respond to trouble calls is different or not.

H_{0}: \mu = 2.6\text{ hours}\\H_A: \mu \neq 2.6\text{ hours}

We would use two-tail test to perform this hypothesis.
