Refer to the diagram shown below.
The value of z that yields the expected central area takes into account the excluded areas at both tails.

Half the tail area is α/2 = 0.08/2 = 0.04.
The central area is 1 - 0.04 - 0.04 = 0.92.

From standard normal tables, obtain
z(α/2) = 1.75

Answer: 1.75

How do you find the tax on a purchase and calculate the final bill? Give an example, then write and solve a number sentence to i

Lerok [7]

If you are buying something that cost $15 and sale tax is 6%, you can calculate final bill trough proportions:
$15:100%=$x:106%
100x=106*15, x=(106*15)/100, x=$15.9 is final bill.

You can also use easier way: $15+0.06*$15=$15.9
Explanation for 2nd way: Cost is $15, on that you need to add 6% of $15: (6%/100%)*$15 and that is 0.06*15.

interpret r(t) as the position of a moving object at time t. Find the curvature of the path and determine thetangential and norm

Igoryamba

Answer:

The curvature is $\kappa=1$

The tangential component of acceleration is $a_{\boldsymbol{T}}=0$

The normal component of acceleration is $a_{\boldsymbol{N}}=1 (2)^2=4$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the curvature of the path we are going to use this formula:

$\kappa=\frac{||d\boldsymbol{T}/dt||}{ds/dt}$

where

$\boldsymbol{T}}$ is the unit tangent vector.

$\frac{ds}{dt}=|| \boldsymbol{r}'(t)}||$ is the speed of the object

We need to find $\boldsymbol{r}'(t)$ , we know that $\boldsymbol{r}(t)=cos \:2t \:\boldsymbol{i}+sin \:2t \:\boldsymbol{j}+ \:\boldsymbol{k}$ so

$\boldsymbol{r}'(t)=\frac{d}{dt}\left(cos\left(2t\right)\right)\:\boldsymbol{i}+\frac{d}{dt}\left(sin\left(2t\right)\right)\:\boldsymbol{j}+\frac{d}{dt}\left(1)\right\:\boldsymbol{k}\\\boldsymbol{r}'(t)=-2\sin \left(2t\right)\boldsymbol{i}+2\cos \left(2t\right)\boldsymbol{j}$

Next , we find the magnitude of derivative of the position vector

$|| \boldsymbol{r}'(t)}||=\sqrt{(-2\sin \left(2t\right))^2+(2\cos \left(2t\right))^2} \\|| \boldsymbol{r}'(t)}||=\sqrt{2^2\sin ^2\left(2t\right)+2^2\cos ^2\left(2t\right)}\\|| \boldsymbol{r}'(t)}||=\sqrt{4\left(\sin ^2\left(2t\right)+\cos ^2\left(2t\right)\right)}\\|| \boldsymbol{r}'(t)}||=\sqrt{4}\sqrt{\sin ^2\left(2t\right)+\cos ^2\left(2t\right)}\\\\\mathrm{Use\:the\:following\:identity}:\quad \cos ^2\left(x\right)+\sin ^2\left(x\right)=1\\\\|| \boldsymbol{r}'(t)}||=2\sqrt{1}=2$

The unit tangent vector is defined by

$\boldsymbol{T}}=\frac{\boldsymbol{r}'(t)}{||\boldsymbol{r}'(t)||}$

$\boldsymbol{T}}=\frac{-2\sin \left(2t\right)\boldsymbol{i}+2\cos \left(2t\right)\boldsymbol{j}}{2} =\sin \left(2t\right)+\cos \left(2t\right)$

We need to find the derivative of unit tangent vector

$\boldsymbol{T}'=\frac{d}{dt}(\sin \left(2t\right)\boldsymbol{i}+\cos \left(2t\right)\boldsymbol{j}) \\\boldsymbol{T}'=-2\cdot(\sin \left(2t\right)\boldsymbol{i}+\cos \left(2t\right)\boldsymbol{j})$
