In a random sample 765 adults in the United States, 322 say they could not cover a $400 unexpected expense without borrowing money or going into debt. (a) What population is under consideration in the data set
Answer:
The population under consideration in the data set are all the adults in the United States.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sampling
This is a common statistics practice, when we want to study something from a population, we find a sample of this population.
For example:
I want to estimate the proportion of New York state residents who are Buffalo Bills fans. So i ask, lets say, 1000 randomly selected New York state residents wheter they are Buffalo Bills fans, and expand this to the entire population of New York State residents.
The population of interest are all the residents of New York State.
In this question:
Sample of 765 adults in the United states.
So the population under consideration in the data set are all the adults in the United States.
Find the equation for the parabola that has its vertex at the origin and has directrix at x=1/48
Answer:
The equation for a parabola with vertex at the origin and a directrix at x = 1/48 is [tex]x= \frac{1}{12}\cdot y^{2}[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
As directrix is a vertical line, the parabola must "horizontal" and increasing in the -x direction. Then, the standard equation for such geometric construction centered at (h, k) is:
[tex]x - h = 4\cdot p \cdot (y-k)^{2}[/tex]
Where:
[tex]h[/tex], [tex]k[/tex] - Horizontal and vertical components of the location of vertex with respect to origin, dimensionless.
[tex]p[/tex] - Least distance of directrix with respect to vertex, dimensionless.
Since vertex is located at the origin and horizontal coordinate of the directrix, least distance of directrix is positive. That is:
[tex]p = x_{D} - x_{V}[/tex]
[tex]p = \frac{1}{48}-0[/tex]
[tex]p = \frac{1}{48}[/tex]
Now, the equation for a parabola with vertex at the origin and a directrix at x = 1/48 is [tex]x= \frac{1}{12}\cdot y^{2}[/tex].
The scientist performs additional analyses and observes that the number of major earthquakes does appear to be decreasing but wonders whether the relationship is statistically significant. Based on the partial regression output below and a 5% significance level, is the year statistically significant in determining the number of earthquakes above magnitude 7.0?Dependent Variable: Earthquakes above Magnitude 7.0 Coefficients Standard t Stat P-value Lower 95% Upper 95% ErrorIntercept 64.67 38.08 4.32 89.22 240.12Year -0.07 0.02 -3.82 -0.11 -0.04
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
A regression model was determined in order to predict the number of earthquakes above magnitude 7.0 regarding the year.
^Y= 164.67 - 0.07Xi
Y: earthquake above magnitude 7.0
X: year
The researcher wants to test the claim that the regression is statistically significant, i.e. if the year is a good predictor of the number of earthquakes with magnitude above 7.0 If he is correct, you'd expect the slope to be different from zero: β ≠ 0, if the claim is not correct, then the slope will be equal to zero: β = 0
The hypotheses are:
H₀: β = 0
H₁: β ≠ 0
α: 0.05
The statistic for this test is a student's t: [tex]t= \frac{b - \beta }{Sb} ~~t_{n-2}[/tex]
The calculated value is in the regression output [tex]t_{H_0}= -3.82[/tex]
This test is two-tailed, meaning that the rejection region is divided in two and you'll reject the null hypothesis to small values of t or to high values of t, the p-value for this test will also be divided in two.
The p-value is the probability of obtaining a value as extreme as the one calculated under the null hypothesis:
p-value: [tex]P(t_{n-2}\leq -3.82) + P(t_{n-2}\geq 3.82)[/tex]
As you can see to calculate it you need the information of the sample size to determine the degrees of freedom of the distribution.
If you want to use the rejection region approach, the sample size is also needed to determine the critical values.
But since this test is two tailed at α: 0.05 and there was a confidence interval with confidence level 0.95 (which is complementary to the level of significance) you can use it to decide whether to reject the null hypothesis.
Using the CI, the decision rule is as follows:
If the CI includes the "zero", do not reject the null hypothesis.
If the CI doesn't include the "zero", reject the null hypothesis.
The calculated interval for the slope is: [-0.11; -0.04]
As you can see, both limits of the interval are negative and do not include the zero, so the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.
At a 5% significance level, you can conclude that the relationship between the year and the number of earthquakes above magnitude 7.0 is statistically significant.
I hope this helps!

Find f o g and g o f to determine if f and g are inverse functions. If they are not inverses, pick the function that would be the inverse with f(x). f(x) = (-2/x) – 1; g(x) = -2/(x+1) Choices: a. g(x) has to be: (1+x)/2 b. g(x) has to be: x/2 c. g(x) has to be: 2 – (1/x) d. Inverses
Answer:
(f o g) = x, then, g(x) is the inverse of f(x).
Step-by-step explanation:
You have the following functions:
[tex]f(x)=-\frac{2}{x}-1\\\\g(x)=-\frac{2}{x+1}[/tex]
In order to know if f and g are inverse functions you calculate (f o g) and (g o f):
[tex]f\ o\ g=f(g(x))=-\frac{2}{-\frac{2}{x+1}}-1=x+1-1=x[/tex]
[tex]g\ o\ f=g(f(x))=-\frac{2}{-\frac{2}{x}+1}=-\frac{2}{\frac{-2+x}{x}}=\frac{2x}{2-x}[/tex]
(f o g) = x, then, g(x) is the inverse of f(x).
Make a matrix A whose action is described as follows: The hit by A rotates everything Pi/4 counterclockwise radians, then stretches by a factor of 1.8 along the x-axis and a factor of 0.7 along the y-axis and then rotates the result by Pi/3 clockwise radians.
Answer:
The required matrix is[tex]A = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1.07&-0.21\\-0.86&1.35\end{array}\right][/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Matrix of rotation:
[tex]P = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}cos\pi/4&-sin\pi/4\\sin\pi/4&cos\pi/4\end{array}\right][/tex]
[tex]P = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1/\sqrt{2} &-1/\sqrt{2} \\1/\sqrt{2} &1/\sqrt{2}\end{array}\right][/tex]
x' + iy' = (x + iy)(cosθ + isinθ)
x' = x cosθ - ysinθ
y' = x sinθ + ycosθ
In matrix form:
[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x'\\y'\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}cos\theta&-sin\theta\\sin \theta&cos\theta\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\end{array}\right][/tex]
The matrix stretches by 1.8 on the x axis and 0.7 on the y axis
i.e. x' = 1.8x
y' = 0.7y
[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x'\\y'\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1.8&0\\0&0.7\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\end{array}\right][/tex]
[tex]Q = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1.8&0\\0&0.7\end{array}\right][/tex]
According to the question, the result is rotated by pi/3 clockwise radians
[tex]R = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}cos(-\pi/3)& -sin(-\pi/3)\\-sin(\pi/3)&cos(\pi/3)\end{array}\right][/tex]
[tex]R = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1/2&\sqrt{3}/2 \\-\sqrt{3}/2 &1/2\end{array}\right][/tex]
To get the matrix A, we would multiply matrices R, Q and P together.
[tex]A = RQP = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1/2&\sqrt{3}/2 \\-\sqrt{3}/2 &1/2\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1.8&0\\0&0.7\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1/\sqrt{2} &-1/\sqrt{2} \\1/\sqrt{2} &1/\sqrt{2}\end{array}\right][/tex]
[tex]A = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1.07&-0.21\\-0.86&1.35\end{array}\right][/tex]

Answer:
x = 15
y = 90
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Find x
We use Definition of Supplementary Angles
9x + 3x = 180
12x = 180
x = 15
Step 2: Find y
All angles in a triangle add up to 180°
3(15) + 3(15) + y = 180
45 + 45 + y = 180
90 + y = 180
y = 90°
BIG Corporation advertises that its light bulbs have a mean lifetime, μ, of 2800 hours. Suppose that we have reason to doubt this claim and decide to do a statistical test of the claim. We choose a random sample of light bulbs manufactured by BIG and find that the mean lifetime for this sample is 2620 hours and that the sample standard deviation of the lifetimes is 650 hours.
In the context of this test, what is a Type II error?
A type II error is (rejecting/failing to reject) the hypothesis that μ is (less than/less than or equal to/greater than/greater than or equal to/not equal to/equal to) ____ when in fact, μ is (less than/less than or equal to/greater than/greater than or equal to/not equal to/equal to) ______.
Answer:
A type II error is failing to reject the hypothesis that μ is equal to 2800 when in fact, μ is less than 2800.
Step-by-step explanation:
A Type II error happens when a false null hypothesis is failed to be rejected.
The outcome (the sample) probability is still above the level of significance, so it is consider that the result can be due to chance (given that the null hypothesis is true) and there is no enough evidence to claim that the null hypothesis is false.
In this contest, a Type II error would be not rejecting the hypothesis that the mean lifetime of the light bulbs is 2800 hours, when in fact this is false: the mean lifetime is significantly lower than 2800 hours.

A car travelling from Ibadan to Lagos at 90 km/hr
takes 1 hour 20 min. How fast must one travel to
cover the distance in one hour?
Answer:
A velocity of 120km/h is needed to cover the distance in one hour
Step-by-step explanation:
The velocity formula is:
[tex]v = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]
In which v is the velocity, d is the distance and t is the time.
A car travelling from Ibadan to Lagos at 90 km/hr takes 1 hour 20 min.
This means that [tex]v = 90, t = 1 + \frac{20}{60} = 1.3333[/tex]
We use this to find d.
[tex]v = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]
[tex]90 = \frac{d}{1.3333}[/tex]
[tex]d = 90*1.3333[/tex]
[tex]d = 120[/tex]
The distance is 120 km.
How fast must one travel to cover the distance in one hour?
Velocity for a distance of 120 km(d = 120) in 1 hour(t = 1). So
[tex]v = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]
[tex]v = \frac{120}{1}[/tex]
[tex]v = 120[/tex]
A velocity of 120km/h is needed to cover the distance in one hour

Jennifer has carpet in her square bedroom. She decides to also purchase carpet for her living room which is rectangular in shape and 9 feet longer than her bedroom.
The area of the carpet required in the living room is given by the quadratic expression below, where x represents the side length, in feet, of the carpet in the bedroom.
X^2 + 9X
Match each part of the expression with what is represents.
Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
Let's highlight the dimensions of the bedroom and living room using the information given in the question:
==>Squared Bedroom dimensions:
Side length = w = x ft
Area = x*x = x²
==>Rectangular living room dimensions:
width = side length of the squared bedroom = x
length = (x + 9) ft
Area = L*W = x*(x+9) = x² + 9x
Now let's match each given expression with what they represent:
==>"the monomial, x, a factor of the expression x² + 9x" represents "the width of the carpet in the living room"
As we have shown in the dimensions of the squared bedroom above.
==>"the binomial, (x + 9), a factor of the expression x² + 9x" represents "the length of the carpet in the living room" as shown above in the dimensions for living room
==>"the second-degree term of the expression x² + 9x" represents "the area of the carpet in the bedroom"
i.e. the 2nd-degree term in the expression is x², which represents the area of the carpet of the given bedroom.
==>"the first-degree term of the expression x2 + 9x" represents "the increase in the area of carpet needed for the living room".
i.e. 1st-degree term in the expression is 9x. And it represents the increase in the area of the carpet for the living room. Area of bedroom is x². Area of carpet needed for living room increased by 9x. Thus, area of carpet needed for living room = x² + 9x
What’s the probability of getting each card out of a deck?
Determine the probability of drawing the card(s) at random from a well-shuffled regular deck of 52 playing cards.
a. a seven __________
b. a six of clubs. ___________
c. a five or a queen ___________
d. a black card. ___________
e. a red card or a jack. ___________
f. a club or an ace. ___________
g. a diamond or a spade. ___________
Answer:
a. 1/13
b. 1/52
c. 2/13
d. 1/2
e. 15/26
f. 17/52
g. 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
a. In a deck of cards, there are 4 suits and each of them has a 7. Therefore, the probability of drawing a 7 is:
P(7) = 4/52 = 1/13
b. There is only one 6 of clubs, therefore, the probability of drawing a 6 of clubs is:
P(6 of clubs) = 1/52
c. There 4 fives (one for each suit) and 4 queens in a deck of cards. Therefore, the probability of drawing a five or a queen is:
P(5 or Q) = P(5) + P(Q)
= 4/52 + 4/52
= 1/13 + 1/13
P(5 or Q) = 2/13
d. There are 2 suits that are black. Each suit has 13 cards. Therefore, there are 26 black cards. The probability of drawing a black card is:
P(B) = 26/52 = 1/2
e. There are 2 suits that are red. Each suit has 13 cards. Therefore, there are 26 red cards. There are 4 jacks. Therefore:
P(R or J) = P(R) + P(J)
= 26/52 + 4/52
= 30/52
P(R or J) = 15/26
f. There are 13 cards in clubs suit and there are 4 aces, therefore:
P(C or A) = P(C) + P(A)
= 13/52 + 4/52
P(C or A) = 17/52
g. There are 13 cards in the diamonds suit and there are 13 in the spades suit, therefore:
P(D or S) = P(D) + P(S)
= 13/52 + 13/52
= 26/52
P(D or S) = 1/2
The polynomial-7.5x^2 + 103 + 2142 models the yearly number of visitors (in thousands) x years after 2007 to a park. Use this polynomial to estimate the number of visitors to the park in 2021.
Answer:
In that year approximately 2114 thousand people visited the park.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the expression [tex]y(x) = -7.5*x^2 + 103*x + 2142[/tex] models the number of visitors in the park, where x represents the number of years after 2007 and 2021 is 14 years after that, then we need to find "y" for that as shown below.
[tex]y(14) = -7.5*(14)^2 + 103*14 + 2142\\y(14) = -7.5*196 + 1442 + 2142\\y(14) = -1470 + 3584\\y(14) = 2114[/tex]
In that year approximately 2114 thousand people visited the park.
An experiment consists of dealing 7 cards from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. What is the probability of being dealt exactly 4 clubs and 3 spades?
Answer: 0.00153
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: An experiment consists of dealing 7 cards from a standard deck of 52 playing cards.
Number of ways of dealing 7 cards from 52 cards = [tex]^{52}C_7[/tex]
Since there are 13 clubs and 13 spades.
Number of ways of getting exactly 4 clubs and 3 spades=[tex]^{13}C_4\times\ ^{13}C_3[/tex]
Now, the probability of being dealt exactly 4 clubs and 3 spades
[tex]=\dfrac{^{13}C_4\times\ ^{13}C_3}{^{52}C_7}\\\\\\=\dfrac{{\dfrac{13!}{4!(9!)}\times\dfrac{13!}{3!10!}}}{\dfrac{52!}{7!45!}}\\\\=\dfrac{715\times286}{133784560}\\\\=0.00152850224271\approx0.00153[/tex]

Pls help me find the volume of this solid
Answer:
240cm³
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's assume the entire shape is full rectangular prism without that has the middle being cut out.
What this means is that, to get the volume of the solid made out of clay, we would calculate the solid as a full rectangular prism, then find the volume of the assumed middle cut-out portion. Then find the difference between both.
Let's solve:
Find the volume of the rectangular prism assuming the solid is full:
Volume of prism = width (w) × height (h) × length (l)
w = 4cm
h = 7cm
l = 3+6+3 = 12cm
Volume of full solid = 4*7*12 = 336cm³
Next, find the volume of the assumed cut-out portion using same formula for volume of rectangular prism:
w = 4cm
h = 7-3 = 4cm
l = 6cm
Volume of assumed cut-out portion = 4*4*6 = 96cm³
Volume of solid made from clay = 336cm³ - 96cm³ = 240cm³

Amanda is constructing equilateral triangle JKL inscribed in circle M. To construct the inscribed polygon, she is going to use a compass to partition the circle into congruent arcs. To what width should she set the compass when partitioning the circle? A. The width must be equal to the radius of circle M. B. The width must be equal the diameter of circle M. C. The width can be equal to either the radius or the diameter of circle M. D. The width can be any size greater than the radius but less than the diameter of circle M. E. The width must be less than the radius of circle M. help meee please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Given:
An equilateral triangle JKL inscribed in circle M.
Solution:
To draw an equilateral triangle inscribed in circle follow the steps:
1: Draw a circle with any radius.
2. Take any point A, anywhere on the circumference of the circle.
3. Place the compass on point A, and swing a small arc crossing the circumference of the circle.
Remember the span of the compass should be the same as the radius of the circle.
4. Place the compass at the intersection of the previous arc and the circumference and draw another arc but don't change the span of the compass.
5. Repeat this process until you return to point A.
6. Join the intersecting points on the circle to form the equilateral triangle.
So the correct option is A. The width must be equal to the radius of circle M.

When Vlad moved to his new home a few years ago, there was a young oak tree in his backyard. He measured it once a year and found that it grew by 26 centimeters each year. 4.5 years after he moved into the house, the tree was 292 centimeters tall. How tall was the tree when Vlad moved into the house? centimeters How many years passed from the time Vlad moved in until the tree was 357 centimeters tall? years
Answer:
The tree was 175 centimeters tall when Vlad moved into the house.
7 years passed from the time Vlad moved in until the tree was 357 centimeters tall.
Step-by-step explanation:
The height of the tree, in centimeters, in t years after Vlad moved into the house is given by an equation in the following format:
[tex]H(t) = H(0) + at[/tex]
In which H(0) is the height of the tree when Vlad moved into the house and a is the yearly increase.
He measured it once a year and found that it grew by 26 centimeters each year.
This means that [tex]a = 26[/tex]
So
[tex]H(t) = H(0) + 26t[/tex]
4.5 years after he moved into the house, the tree was 292 centimeters tall. How tall was the tree when Vlad moved into the house?
This means that when t = 4.5, H(t) = 292. We use this to find H(0).
[tex]H(t) = H(0) + 26t[/tex]
[tex]292 = H(0) + 26*4.5[/tex]
[tex]H(0) = 292 - 26*4.5[/tex]
[tex]H(0) = 175[/tex]
The tree was 175 centimeters tall when Vlad moved into the house.
How many years passed from the time Vlad moved in until the tree was 357 centimeters tall?
This is t for which H(t) = 357. So
[tex]H(t) = H(0) + 26t[/tex]
[tex]H(t) = 175 + 26t[/tex]
[tex]357 = 175 + 26t[/tex]
[tex]26t = 182[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{182}{26}[/tex]
[tex]t = 7[/tex]
7 years passed from the time Vlad moved in until the tree was 357 centimeters tall.
The time it takes me to wash the dishes is uniformly distributed between 10 minutes and 15 minutes. What is the probability that washing dishes tonight will take me between 12 and 14 minutes
Answer:
The probability that washing dishes tonight will take me between 12 and 14 minutes is 0.1333.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the random variable X represent the time it takes to wash the dishes.
The random variable X is uniformly distributed with parameters a = 10 minutes and b = 15 minutes.
The probability density function of X is as follows:
[tex]f_{X}(x)=\frac{1}{b-a};\ a<X<b,\ a<b[/tex]
Compute the probability that washing dishes will take between 12 and 14 minutes as follows:
[tex]P(12\leq X\leq 14)=\int\limits^{12}_{14} {\frac{1}{15-10} \, dx[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{1}{5}\int\limits^{12}_{14} {1} \, dx \\\\=\frac{1}{5}\times [x]^{14}_{12}\\\\=\frac{1}{15}\times [14-12]\\\\=\frac{2}{15}\\\\=0.1333[/tex]
Thus, the probability that washing dishes tonight will take me between 12 and 14 minutes is 0.1333.
