Answer: -13

Step-by-step explanation:

= 4*(1/4) - 8(2-1/4)

= 1-8(7/4)

= 1-14

= -13

Answer:

-13

Step-by-step explanation:

4x – 8(2 - x) when x = 1/4

$4\frac{1}{4}-8(2-\frac{1}{4})$

$1-8(2-\frac{1}{4})$

$1-8\frac{7}{4}$

$1-14$

$=-13$ {Note: Negative + Positive = Negative}

Hence, -13 is the correct Answer.

Answer:

Yes there is sufficient evidence to reject the company's evidence

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample size is n = 25

The mean is $\= x = 5.3 \ mpg$

The standard deviation is $\sigma = 1.8 \ mpg$

The z-score is z = -1.94

The null hypothesis is $H_o : \mu = 6 \ mpg$

The alternative hypothesis is $H_a : \mu \ne 6$

Generally the p-value is mathematically evaluated as

$p-value = 2 * P( Z$

From the z table the area under the normal curve to the left corresponding to -1.94 is

$P( Z$

=> $p-value = 2 * 0.02619$

=> $p-value = 0.052$

Let assume the level of significance is $\alpha = 0.05$

Hence the $p-value > \alpha$ this mean that

The decision rule is

Fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is

There is sufficient evidence to reject the company's evidence

Find the exact length of the arc s in the figure. (Assume r = 3 and θ = 106°.)

NemiM [27]

Circumference = 2Pi(r) = 6Pi

angle of arc s = 360 - 106 = 254 degree

Arc length = 6Pi ( 254 ) / 360 = 4.2Pi

Pi = 3.14

According to an almanac, 60% of adult smokers started smoking before turning 18 years old. (a) compute the mean and standard

larisa [96]

The given problem describes a binomial distribution with p = 60% = 0.6. Given that there are 400 trials, i.e. n = 400.

a.) The mean is given by:

$\mu=np=400\times0.6=240$

The standard deviation is given by:

$\sigma=\sqrt{npq} \\ \\ =\sqrt{np(1-p)} \\ \\ =\sqrt{400(0.6)(0.4)} \\ \\ =\sqrt{96}=9.80$

b.) The mean means that in an experiment of 400 adult smokers, we expect on the average to get about 240 smokers who started smoking before turning 18 years.

c.) It would be unusual to observe <span>340 smokers who started smoking before turning 18 years old in a random sample of 400 adult smokers because 340 is far greater than the mean of the distribution.
340 is greater than 3 standard deviations from the mean of the distribution.</span>

What is the solution to this equation 1/2n^2+18=0

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

n = ±6 .

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic equation is given to us and we need to find out the solution of the given equation . The given equation is ,

$\rm\implies -\dfrac{1}{2}n^2+18=0$

Subtracting 18 both sides ,

$\rm\implies -\dfrac{1}{2}n^2 = -18$

Multiplying both sides by -2 ,

$\rm\implies -2\times\dfrac{1}{2}n^2 = -2\times -18$

On simplyfing , we get ,

$\rm\implies n^2= 36$

Putting squareroot both sides ,

$\rm\implies n= \sqrt{36}$

This equals to ,

$\rm\implies \boxed{\quad\blue{\rm n =\pm 6 }}$

<u>Hence</u><u> the</u><u> </u><u>value</u><u> of</u><u> </u><u>n </u><u>is </u><u>±</u><u>6</u><u> </u><u>.</u>
