Answer:

0.9958

Step-by-step explanation:

P(being correct) = 1/4 = 0.25

Hence, p = 0.25

n = 19

P(x ≥ 1) = p(x = 1) + p(x = 2) +... + p(x = 19)

Using the binomial probability formula :

P(x =x) = nCx * p^x * (1 - p)^(n - x)

However, to save computation time, we could use a calculator :

Using a calculator,

P(x ≥ 1) = 0.99577

P(x ≥ 1) = 0.9958

Which equation best represents a trend line for the scatter plot?
kvasek [131]
Y = (-3/7)x + 4

Looking at the graph, you can see the trend line plotted. And conveniently, there are a couple of points on the trend line that are indicated. Those points being (0,4) and (7,1). The equation of a line in slope intercept form is:y = ax+b

Looking at the points available, the point (0,4) already gives us the y intercept since x is equal to 0. So our equation becomes:
y = ax + 4

Now we need to determine a which is the slope. The slope is the change in y divided by the change in x. So let's do that
(1-4)/(7-0) = -3/7

And now our equation becomes:
y = (-3/7)x + 4

And given formatting issues, the first option available is the correct one.

Consider the function below. (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.) f(x) = x3 − 27x + 3 (a) Find the interval of increase. (E
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

(-∞,-3) and (3,∞)  

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x³ − 27x + 3

1. Find the critical points

(a) Calculate the first derivative of the function.

f'(x) = 3x² -27  

(b) Factor the first derivative

f'(x)= 3(x² - 9) = 3(x + 3) (x - 3)

(c) Find the zeros

3(x + 3) (x - 3) = 0

x + 3 = 0      x - 3 = 0

     x = -3          x = 3

The critical points are at <em>x = -3</em> and x = 3.

2. Find the local extrema

(a) x = -3

f(x) = x³ − 27x + 3 = (-3)³ - 27(-3) + 3 = -27 +81 + 3 = 57

(b) x = 3

f(x) = x³ − 27x + 3 = 3³ - 27(3) + 3 = 27 - 81 + 3 = -51

The local extrema are at (-3,57) and (3,-51).

3, Identify the local extrema as maxima or minima

Test the first derivative (the slope) over the intervals (-∞, -3), (-3,3), (3,∞)

f'(-4) = 3x² -27 = 3(4)² - 27  = 21

f'(0) = 3(0)² -27 = -27

f'(4) = 3(4)² - 27 = 51

The function is increasing on the intervals (-∞,-3) and (3,∞).

The graph below shows the critical points of your function.

An education researcher claims that 58​% of college students work​ year-round. In a random sample of 400 college​ students, 232
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The proportion of college students who work​ year-round is 58%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The claim made by the education researcher is that 58​% of college students work​ year-round.

A random sample of 400 college​ students, 232 say they work​ year-round.

To test the researcher's claim use a one-proportion <em>z</em>-test.

The hypothesis can be defined as follows:

<em>H</em>₀: The proportion of college students who work​ year-round is 58%, i.e. <em>p</em> = 0.58.

<em>Hₐ</em>: The proportion of college students who work​ year-round is 58%, i.e. <em>p</em> ≠ 0.58. C

Compute the sample proportion as follows:

 \hat p=\frac{232}{400}=0.58

Compute the test statistic value as follows:

 z=\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}}=\frac{0.58-0.58}{\sqrt{\frac{0.58(1-0.58)}{400}}}=0

The test statistic value is 0.

Decision rule:

If the p-value of the test is less than the significance level then the null hypothesis will be rejected.

Compute the p-value for the two-tailed test as follows:

 p-value=2\times P(z

*Use a z-table for the probability.

The p-value of the test is 1.

The p-value of the test is very large when compared to the significance level.

The null hypothesis will not be rejected.

Thus, it can be concluded that the proportion of college students who work​ year-round is 58%.

Find X if m/_ UVH=50°, m/_HVW=25x-5, and m/_ UVW = 35x-5.​
ra1l [238]

Step-by-step explanation:

first you have to solve for x

35x - 5=50

35-35x-5= 50-35

x-5=15

x- 5÷5=15÷5

x=3

Now we have to substitute x into the equation.

35×(3)-5=

175-5=170

angle UVW= 170

to find angle HUW instead of solving the equation just subtract 170 from 50 and you will get 120.

angle UVH=50

angle HUW=120

angle UVW=170

I hope this helps srry it took so long but gn and gl.
