Mathematics

Answer:

f(-3) = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x² - 5

f(x) is a function with input x, meaning it is an expression which has terms involving x;

x is a variable and can be considered a space holder;

f(-3) is the function with input -3, this simply means replacing the space holder, i.e. x, with -3;

f(-3) = (-3)² - 5

f(-3) = 9 - 5

f(-3) = 4

Answer:

f(-3)=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute x=-3 into the function

f(-3)=(-3)^2-5

f(-3)=9-5

f(-3)=4

Alexandria,a car dealer,earns 40% commission of her luxury vehicles sales. Last year,her sales were $480,000. What was the total
Oxana [17]

Answer:

$12,000,000

Step-by-step explanation:

To find her commission, create a proportion.

\frac{40}{100}=\frac{480000}{x}

To solve use cross multiplication.

40(x) = 100(480000)

40x = 48000000

x= 12,000,000

⦁ In a simple random sample of 1219 US adults, 354 said that their favorite sport to watch is football. Construct a 95% confiden
fomenos

Answer:

95% confidence interval for the proportion of adults in the United States whose favorite sport to watch is football is [0.265 , 0.316].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that in a simple random sample of 1219 US adults, 354 said that their favorite sport to watch is football.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for 95% confidence interval for the proportion of adults in the United States whose favorite sport to watch is football is given by;

        P.Q. = \frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } ~ N(0,1)

where, \hat p = proportion of adults in the United States whose favorite sport to watch is football in a sample of 1219 adults = \frac{354}{1219}

           n = sample of US adults  = 1291

           p = population proportion of adults

<em>Here for constructing 95% confidence interval we have used One-sample z proportion statistics.</em>

So, 95% confidence interval for the population proportion, p is ;

P(-1.96 < N(0,1) < 1.96) = 0.95  {As the critical value of z at 2.5%

                                                    significance level are -1.96 & 1.96}

P(-1.96 < \frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } < 1.96) = 0.95

P( -1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } < {\hat p-p} < 1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } ) = 0.95

P( \hat p-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } < p < \hat p+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } ) = 0.95

<u>95% confidence interval for p</u> = [ \hat p-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } , \hat p+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } ]

                         = [ \frac{354}{1219}-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\frac{354}{1219}(1-\frac{354}{1219})}{1219} } , \frac{354}{1219}+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\frac{354}{1219}(1-\frac{354}{1219})}{1219} } ]

                         = [0.265 , 0.316]

Therefore, 95% confidence interval for the proportion of adults in the United States whose favorite sport to watch is football is [0.265 , 0.316].

The inverse, converse and contrapositive of a statement are used to determine the true values of the statement

<h3>How to determine the inverse, converse and contrapositive</h3>

As a general rule, we have:

If a conditional statement is: If p , then q .

Then:

  • Inverse -> If not p , then not q .
  • Converse -> If q , then p .
  • Contrapositive -> If not q , then not p .

Using the above rule, we have:

<u>Statement 1</u>

  • Inverse: If a parallelogram does not have a right angle, then it is not a rectangle.
  • Converse: If a parallelogram is a rectangle, then it has a right angle.
  • Contrapositive: If a parallelogram is a not rectangle, then it does not have a right angle.

All three statements above are true

<u>Statement 2</u>

  • Inverse: If two angles of one triangle are not congruent to two angles of another, then the third angles are not congruent.
  • Converse: If the third angles of two triangle are congruent, then the two angles are congruent to two angles of another
  • Contrapositive: If the third angles of two triangle are not congruent, then the two angles are not congruent to two angles of another

All three statements above are also true
