Answer: D) the significance level of the test
=======================================================
Explanation:
The significance level of the test, also known as "alpha", is the probability of making a type 1 error. A type 1 error is where you reject the null hypothesis but it was true all along.
The null hypothesis is where we test a certain probability distribution (eg: normal distribution). Specifically we gather a sample of values and compute the test statistic. If the probability of getting that test statistic or more extreme is smaller than alpha, then we reject the null. This probability value is known as the p-value.
If you lower the alpha value, then that will make it more likely you do not reject the null. Consider an example where alpha = 0.10 to start with. If you get a p-value of 0.02, then you would reject the null. The same would apply for alpha = 0.05; however, with alpha = 0.01, the p-value is no longer smaller than alpha. At this point we do not reject the null. Your textbook may use the phrasing "fail to reject the null".
Going in the opposite direction, increasing the alpha value will make it more likely to reject the null. Each time you adjust the alpha value, keep the p-value to some fixed number (between 0 and 1).

Answer:
1 false
2 true
3 true
4 false
5 true
Step-by-step explanation:
f(a) = (2a - 7 + a^2) and g(a) = (5 – a).
1 false f(a) is a second degree polynomial and g(a) is a first degree polynomial
When added together, they will be a second degree polynomial
2. true When we add and subtract polynomials, we still get a polynomial, so it is closed under addition and subtraction
3. true f(a) + g(a) = (2a - 7 + a^2) + (5 – a)
Combining like terms = a^2 +a -2
4. false f(a) - g(a) = (2a - 7 + a^2) - (5 – a)
Distributing the minus sign (2a - 7 + a^2) - 5 + a
Combining like terms a^2 +3a -12
5. true f(a)* g(a) = (2a - 7 + a^2) (5 – a).
Distribute
(2a - 7 + a^2) (5) – (2a - 7 + a^2) (a)
10a -35a +5a^2 -2a^2 -7a +a^3
Combining like term
-a^3 + 3 a^2 + 17 a - 35
Answer:
x + 4y ≤ 15; y ≥ 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph doesn't do a very good job of modeling any of the given equations. However, the equations listed above seem the best fit.
The slope of the top (left) line is negative, so the equation will be of the form ...
x + 4y = something
When y=0, x=15, so the "something" is expected to be 15.
However, the line appears to go through points (6, 2) and (-2, 4). Both of these points are on the line x + 4y = 14.
The graph is shaded <em>below the line</em> so the values of x and y that are in the shaded area will add to <em>less than</em> 15 (or 14). Hence, the inequality will be ...
x + 4y ≤ something . . . . . part of the 3rd answer choice
The fact that the shading does not go below y=0 means the other limit is ...
y ≥ 0 . . . . . part of every answer choice.
Answer:
5%
Step-by-step explanation:
You want to find r when ...
I = Prt
is equal to P and t=20.
P = Pr·20 . . . . fill in the problem values
1/20 = r = 0.05 = 5% . . . . divide by 20P
The simple interest rate is 5%.
