<h3>Given</h3>
1) Trapezoid BEAR with bases 11.5 and 6.5 and height 8.5, all in cm.
2) Regular pentagon PENTA with side lengths 9 m
<h3>Find</h3>
The area of each figure, rounded to the nearest integer
<h3>Solution</h3>
1) The area of a trapezoid is given by
... A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h
... A = (1/2)(11.5 +6.5)·(8.5) = 76.5 ≈ 77
The area of BEAR is about 77 cm².
2) The conventional formula for the area of a regular polygon makes use of its perimeter and the length of the apothem. For an n-sided polygon with side length s, the perimeter is p = n·s. The length of the apothem is found using trigonometry to be a = (s/2)/tan(180°/n). Then the area is ...
... A = (1/2)ap
... A = (1/2)(s/(2tan(180°/n)))(ns)
... A = (n/4)s²/tan(180°/n)
We have a polygon with s=9 and n=5, so its area is
... A = (5/4)·9²/tan(36°) ≈ 139.36
The area of PENTA is about 139 m².

Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean
and standard deviation
, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean
and standard deviation
.
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
In this problem
Sample of 121, which is higher than 30.
So we do not need to know anything about the shape of the distribution in order to make an interval estimate of the mean of all the account balances.
So the answer is False
(4). If we break down this piecewise function, we have 3 main expressions to deal with, 'h(x) = 5 if {x ≥ 4}' (represented by the green graph) 'h(x) = x if {0 ≤ x ≤ 4}' (represented by the blue graph) and 'h(x) = 1 / 2x + 2 if {x < 0}' (represented by the red graph).
Take a look at the attachment below for your graph of these 3 functions / expressions.
(5). For this part we want to determine the average rate of change of the function f(x) = 4x² - 5x - 8 over the interval [- 2,3]. Remember that to calculate average rate of change between the 2 points we use the following formula...
f(b) - f(a) / b - a,
f(3) = 4(3)² - 5(3) - 8 = 4(9) - 15 - 8 = 36 - 15 - 8 = 13,
f(- 2) = 4(- 2)² - 5(- 2) - 8 = 4(4) + 10 - 8 = 16 + 10 - 8 = 18
13 - 18 / 3 - (- 2) = - 5 / 5 = - 1
Therefore the average rate of change of the function f(x) = 4x² - 5x - 8 over the interval [- 2,3] will be - 1.
