Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope, m, is a measure of the rate of change which is constant for linear equations. Mathematically it is defined as

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Again for linear equations this is a constant value which tells you how much y, the dependent variable, increases/decreases with respect to the change in the independent variable x.

The function f is defined by f(x) = 2x²-1.<br> Find f (2x).
umka21 [38]

Answer: f(2x)=8x^2-1

Step-by-step explanation:

All that is required here is to substitute x = 2x into the right side in the same way that is done for a numeric value.

f(2x) = 2(2x)^2-1\\f(2x) = 2(4)x^2-1\\f(2x) = 8x^2-1\\

A university researcher wants to estimate the mean number of novels that seniors read during their time in college. An exit surv
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Population mean = 7 ± 2.306 × \frac{2.29}{\sqrt{9} }

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - A university researcher wants to estimate the mean number

            of  novels that seniors read during their time in college. An exit

            survey was conducted with a random sample of 9 seniors. The

            sample mean was 7 novels with standard deviation 2.29 novels.

To find - Assuming that all conditions for conducting inference have

              been met, which of the following is a 94.645% confidence

              interval for the population mean number of novels read by

              all seniors?

Proof -

Given that,

Mean ,x⁻ = 7

Standard deviation, s = 2.29

Size, n = 9

Now,

Degrees of freedom = df

                                = n - 1

                                = 9 - 1

                                = 8

⇒Degrees of freedom = 8

Now,

At 94.645% confidence level

α = 1 - 94.645%

   =1 - 0.94645

  =0.05355 ≈ 0.05

⇒α = 0.5

Now,

\frac{\alpha}{2} = \frac{0.05}{2}

  = 0.025

Then,

t_{\frac{\alpha}{2}, df }  = 2.306

∴ we get

Population mean = x⁻ ± t_{\frac{\alpha}{2}, df } ×\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }

                           = 7 ± 2.306 × \frac{2.29}{\sqrt{9} }

⇒Population mean = 7 ± 2.306 × \frac{2.29}{\sqrt{9} }

Can a triangle be drawn with a side length of three inches with angles at each end measuring 90 degrees and 89 degrees?
UNO [17]

If the triangle has the angle of 90°, 89° and 1° then 1 side length can be 3 in but all the side lengths cannot be 3 in.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The sum of all the angles of a triangle = 180°

So, if 1 angle is 90° and the 2nd angle is 89°, then the third angle will be 1°

and length of 1 side = 3 in

a = 3 in

Using the Sine rule,

\frac{sin A}{a}= \frac{sin B}{b} = \frac{sin C}{c}

On substituting the value:

\frac{sin 90^o}{3} = \frac{sin 89^o}{b} = \frac{sin 1^o}{c} \\\\\frac{1}{3} =\frac{0.99}{b}= \frac{0.017}{c} \\\\b = 3 X 0.99 = 2.97 in\\\\c = 3 X 0.017 = 0.051 in

Therefore, if the triangle has the angle of 90°, 89° and 1° then 1 side length can be 3 in and the triangle will be very acute but all the side lengths cannot be 3 in.
