Answer:

b=-5, m= - 3/-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope equation is y=mx+b. Slope is finding the rise(vertical change) over run(horizontal change). In this case, -3 is our negative rise and 2 is our run. Put that into fraction form, we get negative 3/2. In the slope equation, b represents the y-intercept(where the line touches the y-axis). In this case, it is -5. Hope this helps you!

Evaluate the expression Arcsec(sqrt 2). Do not use your calculator to answer this question. Do not express answer in decimals.

Pi/4 radians
You're looking for the angle that has a secant of sqrt(2). And since the secant is simply the reciprocal of the cosine, let's take a look at that.
sqrt(2) = 1/x
x*sqrt(2) = 1
x = 1/sqrt(2)
Let's multiply both numerator and denominator by sqrt(2), so
x = sqrt(2)/2
And the value sqrt(2)/2 should be immediately obvious to you as a trig identity. Namely, that's the cosine of a 45 degree angle. Now for the issue of how to actually give you your answer. There's no need for decimals to express 45 degrees, so that caveat in the question doesn't make any sense unless you're measuring angles in radians. So let's convert 45 degrees to radians. A full circle has 360 degrees, or 2*pi radians. So:
45 * (2*pi)/360 = 90*pi/360 = pi/4
So your answer is pi/4 radians.

In the United States, 35% of households own a 4K television. Suppose we take a random sample of 150 households. (a) Describe the

Answer:

(a) The distribution of the sample proportion is Normal distribution.

(b) The probability that in this sample of 150 households that more than 50% own a 4K television is 0.00012.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that in the United States, 35% of households own a 4K television.

Suppose we take a random sample of 150 households.

Let $\hat p$ = sample proportion of households who own a 4K television.

The z-score probability distribution for sample proportion is given by;

Z = $\frac{ \hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p$ = sample proportion

p = population proportion of households own a 4K television = 35%

n = sample of households = 150

(a) The distribution of the sample proportion is related to the Normal distribution.

(b) Probability that in this sample of 150 households more than 50% own a 4K television is given by = P( $\hat p$ > 0.50)

P( $\hat p$ > 0.50) = P( $\frac{ \hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ > $\frac{ 0.50-0.35}{\sqrt{\frac{0.50(1-0.50)}{150} } }$ ) = P(Z > 3.67) = 1 - P(Z $\leq$ 3.67)

= 1 - 0.99988 = 0.00012

Now, in the z table the P(Z $\leq$ x) or P(Z < x) is given. So, the above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 3.67 in the z table which has an area of 0.99988.

Therefore, probability that in this sample of 150 households more than 50% own a 4K television is 0.00012.

the value of c guaranteed to exist by the Mean Value Theorem for V(x) = x² in the interval [0, 3] is...? a) 1 b) 2 c) 3/2 d) 1/2

lilavasa [31]

Answer: c) $\dfrac{3}{2}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean value theorem : If f(x) is defined and continuous on the interval [a,b] and differentiable on (a,b), then there is at least one number c in the interval (a,b) (that is a < c < b) such that

$\begin{displaymath}f'(c) = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b-a} \cdot\end{displaymath}$
