A file cabinet is 48in. tall, 15 in. wide and 24in. deep. find the volume of the file cabinet

Can someone help me understand how to do this quadratic math problem

Answer:

put all of the expressions into the same form, such as standard form

Step-by-step explanation:

When you're trying to determine whether one expression is equivalent to another, you need to put both of the expressions into the same form. This will generally require some algebraic manipulation using the rules of equality.

Here, you're given a quadratic in standard form. From what we can see of the one partial answer, some of the choices are in vertex form. To determine if they are equivalent, you can do either of two things ...

Put the given expression into vertex form
Expand the answer choice to put it in standard form

___

<em>For multiple-choice questions</em> of this type, it is often sufficient to look at one or two terms of the different equations. That is usually all it takes to separate a good answer from a bad one.

You can start with the x^2 term. Any answer choice that has an x^2 coefficient different from 1 will be rejected.

Next, you can look at the sign of the x term. Any answer choice that doesn't have a positive x term will be rejected.

Finally, you can look a the constant term. Any answer choice that doesn't have a constant term of +4 will be rejected.

___

As it happens, the given equation is a perfect square, so one equivalent is ...

y = (x +2)^2

_____

When working with quadratics, it can be helpful to memorize a couple of the ways they can be written:

(x +b)^2 = (x^2 +2bx + b^2)

This is a special case of ...

(x +a)(x +b) = x^2 +(a+b)x + ab

According to a recent study of 7335 young people in the US, 30% had been arrested for a crime other than a traffic violation by

victus00 [196]

Answer:

a) Statistic.

b) The population proportion is expected to be between 0.29 and 0.31 with a 94% degree of confidence.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The proportion of 30% is a statistic, as it is a value that summarizes data only from the sample taken in the study from USA Today. Other samples may yield different proportions.

b) We can use the statistic to estimate a confidence interval for the parameter of the population.

The standard error for the proportion is calculated as:

$\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{N}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.3\cdot 0.7}{7335}}=\sqrt{2.83\cdot10^5}= 0.00535$

The margin of error is 0.01. We can use this value to determine the level of confidence that represents.

The formula for the margin of error is:

$E=z\cdot \sigma_p=0.01\\\\z\cdot 0.0535=0.01\\\\z=1.87$

This z-value, according to the the standard normal distribution, corresponds to a confidence interval of 94%.

The interval for this margin of error is:

$p-E\leq \pi \leq p+E\\\\0.30-0.01\leq \pi \leq 0.30+0.01\\\\0.29\leq \pi \leq 0.31$

Then, we can conclude that the population proportion is expected to be between 0.29 and 0.31 with a 94% degree of confidence.

A poll of 1068 adult Americans reveals that 48% of the voters surveyed prefer the Democratic candidate for the presidency. At a

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Z = -1.333

P-value = 0.09176

Decision Rule: Reject $H_o$ if ∝ is greater than the P-value

Conclusion: Since P-value is > the level of significance ∝, we fail to reject the null hypothesis, therefore there is insufficient evidence to conclude that at least half of all voters prefer the Democrat.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The sample size of the poll = 1068

The proportion of voters that preferred Democratic candidate is $\hat p$ = 0.48

To test the claim that at least half of all voters prefer the Democrat, i.e 1/2 = 0.5

The null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis can be computed as:

$H_o : p \geq 0.50$

$H_1 : p < 0.50$

Using the Z test statistics which can be expressed by the formula:

$Z = \dfrac{\hat p - p}{\dfrac{\sqrt{p(1-p) }}{n}}}$

$Z = \dfrac{0.48 - 0.5}{\dfrac{\sqrt{0.5(1-0.5) }}{1068}}}$

$Z = \dfrac{-0.02}{\sqrt{\dfrac{{0.5(0.5) }}{1068}}}$

$Z = \dfrac{-0.02}{\sqrt{\dfrac{{0.25}}{1068}}}$

$Z = \dfrac{-0.02}{0.015}$

Z = -1.333

P-value = P(Z< -1.33)

From z tables,

P-value = 0.09176

The level of significance ∝ = 0.05

Decision Rule: Reject $H_o$ if ∝ is greater than the P-value

Conclusion: Since P-value is > the level of significance ∝, we fail to reject the null hypothesis, therefore there is insufficient evidence to conclude that at least half of all voters prefer the Democrat.
