Answer:
the duration of this event is 4 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
This function is a quadratic one
let Δ be the dicriminant :
a = -16b = 48c= 64 Δ = 48²-4*(-16)*64 = 6400so there are two values that satisfy -16t²+48t+64 = 0 x and y
x= (-48+80)/-16*2 = -1y= (-48-80)/-16*2= 4x<0 so w won't take it since time is a positive value here
so t = y = 4h
The accompanying data represent the total travel tax (in dollars) for a 3-day business trip in 8 randomly selected cities. A normal probability plot suggests the data could come from a population that is normally distributed. A boxplot indicates there are no outliers.

3. What would you recommend to a researcher who wants to increase the precision of the interval, but does not have access to additional data?
A. The researcher could decrease the level of confidence.
B. The researcher could decrease the sample standard deviation.
C. The researcher could increase the level of confidence.
D. The researcher could increase the sample mean.
Answer:
1. Point estimate M (sample mean): 83.33
2. The lower bound is $73.36 and the upper bound is $93.30. One can be______% confident that the mean travel tax for all cities is between these values.
3. A. The researcher could decrease the level of confidence.
Step-by-step explanation:
A point esimate for the population mean travel tax can be done with the sample mean.
We can calculate the sample mean as:
[tex]M=\dfrac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^n\,x_i\\\\\\M=\dfrac{1}{8}(67.85+78.62+70.28+84.03+79.28+87.72+101.54+97.28)\\\\\\M=\dfrac{666.6}{8}\\\\\\M=83.33\\\\\\[/tex]
2. We have to calculate a 95% confidence interval for the mean.
The sample mean is M=83.33.
The sample size is N=8.
The population standard deviation is not known, so we have to estimate it from the sample standard deviation and use a t-students distribution to calculate the critical value.
We calculate the sample standard deviation as:
[tex]s=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{n-1}\sum_{i=1}^n\,(x_i-M)^2}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{7}((67.85-83.33)^2+(78.62-83.33)^2+(70.28-83.33)^2+. . . +(97.28-83.33)^2)}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{\dfrac{994.49}{7}}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{142.07}=11.92\\\\\\[/tex]
The standard error is:
[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{N}}=\dfrac{11.92}{\sqrt{8}}=\dfrac{11.92}{2.828}=4.214[/tex]
The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:
[tex]df=n-1=8-1=7[/tex]
The t-value for a 95% confidence interval and 7 degrees of freedom is t=2.36.
The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:
[tex]MOE=t\cdot s_M=2.36 \cdot 4.214=9.97[/tex]
Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:
[tex]LL=M-t \cdot s_M = 83.33-9.97=73.36\\\\UL=M+t \cdot s_M = 83.33+9.97=93.30[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval for the mean travel tax is (73.36, 93.30).
We can be 95% confident that the true mean travel tax is within this interval.
3.. If we have no access to additional data, we can not decrease the standard deviation or increase the sample size.
The only way to have a narrower confidence interval is decreasing its level of confidence. With the same sample information, the lower the confidence, the narrower is the interval.

Suppose that vehicles taking a particular freeway exit can turn right (R), turn left (L), or go straight (S). Consider observing the direction for each of three successive vehicles.
A) List all outcomes in the event A that all three vehicles go in the same direction.
B) List all outcomes in the event B that all three vehicles take different directions.C) List all outcomes in the event C that exactly two of the three vehicles turn right.D) List all outcomes in the event D that exactly two vehicles go in the same direction.E) List outcomes in D'.F) List outcomes in C ∪ D.G) List outcomes in C ∩ D.
Answer:
A) A = {RRR, LLL, SSS}
B) B = {LRS. LSR, RLS, RSL, SLR, SRL}
C) C = {RRL, RRS, RSR, RLR, LRR, SRR}
D) D = {RRL, RRS, RSR, RLR, LRR, SRR. LLR, LLS, LSL, LRL, RLL, SLL, SSL, SSR, SLS, SRS, LSS, RSS}
E) D' ={RRR, LLL, SSS, LRS. LSR, RLS, RSL, SLR, SRL}
F) C ∪ D = {RRL, RRS, RSR, RLR, LRR, SRR. LLR, LLS, LSL, LRL, RLL, SLL, SSL, SSR, SLS, SRS, LSS, RSS}
G) C ∩ D = {RRL, RRS, RSR, RLR, LRR, SRR}
Step-by-step explanation:
A) All vehicles must go right, left or straight ahead (three possibilities):
A = {RRR, LLL, SSS}
B) One vehicle must go right, one must go left, and the remaining one must go straight ahead (six possibilities):
B = {LRS. LSR, RLS, RSL, SLR, SRL}
C) There are three ways that exactly two vehicles go right (1 and 3, 2 and 3, 1 and 2), there are then two options for the remaining vehicle (left and straight) for a total of six possibilities:
C = {RRL, RRS, RSR, RLR, LRR, SRR}
D) Follow the same reasoning from the previous item, but multiply the number of possibilities by 3 (for each direction in which both cars can go: right, left or straight):
D = {RRL, RRS, RSR, RLR, LRR, SRR. LLR, LLS, LSL, LRL, RLL, SLL, SSL, SSR, SLS, SRS, LSS, RSS}
E) D' is the set containing all possibilities not present in set D. D' is comprised by the possibilities of all vehicles going in the same direction, or each vehicle in a different direction:
D' ={RRR, LLL, SSS, LRS. LSR, RLS, RSL, SLR, SRL}
F) The outcomes in C ∪ D is the union of elements from set C and D (neglecting repeated values), which happens to be all values in set D.
C ∪ D = {RRL, RRS, RSR, RLR, LRR, SRR. LLR, LLS, LSL, LRL, RLL, SLL, SSL, SSR, SLS, SRS, LSS, RSS}
G) The outcomes in C ∩ D is the list of values present in both sets C and D, which happens to be all values in set C:
C ∩ D = {RRL, RRS, RSR, RLR, LRR, SRR}

Step-by-step explanation:
An earthquake was felt throughout a circular area of 1,808.64 square miles. What was the radius of the circular area?
Answer:
24 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a circle is given by: A = (pi)(r^2)
The problem gives the area as: 1,808.64 sq. mi.
So, (pi)(r^2) = 1,808.64 Solve for r. Divide both sides by pi (3.14)
r^2 = 1.808.64/3.14
r^2 = 576 Take the square root of both sides.
r = 24 Miles.
Answer:
23.99 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a circle is denoted by A = πr², where r is the radius.
Here, we know the circular area is A = 1808.64 square miles, so plug this into the formula to find r:
A = πr²
1808.64 = πr²
r² = 1808.64 / π ≈ 575.71
r = √575.71 ≈ 23.99 miles
The answer is thus 23.99 miles.

The houses on a city block were valued at $172,000, $164,000, $142,000,
$159,000, $191,000, $124,000, and $146,000, respectively. But a public
assessor has determined that the value of each house is actually $13,000
higher than previously thought. According to the public assessor, what is the
median value of the houses?
A. $159,000
B. $165,000
C. $172,000
D. $177,000
Answer:
C. $172,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculation for the median value of the houses
The following data was given in the question:$172,000, $164,000, $142,000,
$159,000, $191,000, $124,000, and $146,000
The first step is to Arrange the above data in ascending order
$124,000,$142,000,$146,000,$159,000,
$164,000,$172,000,$191,000
Second step is to find the Median
The Median will be the mid value, which means that $159,000 is the mid value
Based on the information given in the question we were given that a public
assessor has determined that the value of each house is actually $13,000 higher than previously thought
Hence, the Median will be = $159,000+$13,000=$172,000
Therefore the median value of the houses will be $172,000
A survey of 128 DeVry statistics students found that 83% read the announcements each week. What is the population and what is the sample
Answer:
-Population is DeVry statistics students - Sample is 128 DeVry statistics students.
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, population is defined as a set of all elements while sample includes some or all those of elements, whereas, sample never includes more elements when compared to population.
Hence, we select sample from the population.
Now, in this question, the survey include 128 DeVry statistics students. Thus, these 128 statistics students would be a sample while total number of Devry statistics students will be the population.
83% is the sample statistic because it gives us numerical information about the sample.
Thus, we can conclude that;
-Population is DeVry statistics students - Sample is 128 DeVry statistics students.

When (81x^2/7) (2/9x^3/7) is simplified, it can be written in the form ax^b where a and b are real numbers. Find ab.
Answer:
In improper form your solution will be [tex]\frac{90}{7}[/tex]. As a mixed fraction it will be [tex]12\frac{6}{7}[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing we want to do here is to simplify this expression. After doing so, " a " and " b " should be multiplied to result in a possible improper fraction,
[tex]\left(81x^{\frac{2}{7}}\right)\:\left(2/9x^{\frac{3}{7}}\right)\:[/tex] - Apply exponential rule " [tex]\:a^b\cdot \:a^c=a^{b+c}[/tex] "
= [tex]81\cdot \frac{2}{9}x^{\frac{2}{7}+\frac{3}{7}}[/tex] - Combine fractions [tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{3}{7}[/tex]
= [tex]81\cdot \frac{2}{9}x^{\frac{5}{7}}[/tex] - Multiply the fractions, and simplify further
= [tex]\frac{162x^{\frac{5}{7}}}{9}[/tex] = [tex]18x^{\frac{5}{7}}[/tex] - This is out simplified expression
Now that we have this simplified expression, we can see that a = [tex]18[/tex], and b = [tex]\frac{5}{7}[/tex]. Therefore, multiplying the two we should receive the improper fraction as follows,
[tex]18 * \frac{5}{7}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{90}{7}[/tex] - Note that this is in improper form. If you want your solution in a mixed fraction, it will be [tex]12\frac{6}{7}[/tex].

Tensile strength tests were carried out on two different grades of wire rod, resulting in the accompanying data.
Grade Sample Size sample mean(kg/mm^2) Sample S
AISI 1064 m = 126 x = 102.8 s1 = 1.2
AISI 1078 n = 126 y = 121.3 s2 = 2.0
a. Does the data provide compelling evidence for concluding that true average strength for the 1078 grade exceeds that for the 1064 grade by more than 10 kg/mm^2.
b. Test the appropriate hypotheses using the P-value approach.
c. Calculate the test statistic and p-value.
d. State the conclusion in the problem context.
Answer:
The null hypothesis is rejected.
There is enough evidence to support the claim that the true average strength for the 1078 grade exceeds that for the 1064 grade by more than 10 kg/mm^2.
Test statistic t=-40.91
P-value = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a hypothesis test for the difference between populations means.
The claim is that the true average strength for the 1078 grade exceeds that for the 1064 grade by more than 10 kg/mm^2.
Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:
[tex]H_0: \mu_1-\mu_2=-10\\\\H_a:\mu_1-\mu_2< -10[/tex]
The significance level is 0.05.
The sample 1 (AISI 1064), of size n1=126 has a mean of 102.8 and a standard deviation of 1.2.
The sample 2 (AISI 1078), of size n2=126 has a mean of 121.3 and a standard deviation of 2.
The difference between sample means is Md=-18.5.
[tex]M_d=M_1-M_2=102.8-121.3=-18.5[/tex]
The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:
[tex]s_{M_d}=\sqrt{\dfrac{\sigma_1^2}{n_1}+\dfrac{\sigma_2^2}{n_2}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{1.2^2}{126}+\dfrac{2^2}{126}}\\\\\\s_{M_d}=\sqrt{0.011+0.032}=\sqrt{0.043}=0.2078[/tex]
Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:
[tex]t=\dfrac{M_d-(\mu_1-\mu_2)}{s_{M_d}}=\dfrac{-18.5-(-10)}{0.2078}=\dfrac{-8.5}{0.2078}=-40.91[/tex]
The degrees of freedom for this test are:
[tex]df=n_1+n_2-2=126+126-2=250[/tex]
This test is a left-tailed test, with 250 degrees of freedom and t=-40.91, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):
[tex]\text{P-value}=P(t<-40.91)=0[/tex]
As the P-value (0) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the effect is significant.
The null hypothesis is rejected.
There is enough evidence to support the claim that the true average strength for the 1078 grade exceeds that for the 1064 grade by more than 10 kg/mm^2.

The quadratic formula is honestly the most straightforward way of solving here.
Your other options are completing the square (which is the same thing as the quadratic formula but it's good to know that method if you have to take Integral Calculus at some point) or maybe factoring by grouping if it's appropriate. But the quadratic formula will work for you in all three equations:
1) a=1, b=0, c=8
This reduces pretty quickly into x=8i,-8i due to the negative under the radical. (Actually we didn't even really need the formula here.)
2) a=-9, b=4, c=-10
This reduces into x=(-4+i√(344))/-18, (-4-i√(344))/-18 and doesn't go any further because 344 isn't a perfect square.
3) a=1, b=8, c=17
This reduces to x=(-4+i), (-4-i)
So those are the answers for each.

What is the equation of the line in slope-intercept form that is perpendicular to the line y=3/4x-2 and passes
through the point (-12, 10)?
Oy=-4/3-6
O y=-4/3x + 6
O y = 4/3x + 26
O y = 4/3x +10
Answer: y=-(4/3)*x-6
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of any straight line is y=a*x+b (1).
So we have to find the coefficients a and b and substitute them to the equation (1).
If the required line is perpendicular to y= (3/4)*x-2 it means that
a= -(4/3) (we have to inverse the fraction 3/4 and put the opposite sign after that. 3/4 has the sign + in front of it so we have to put sign -)
So the equation of required line is y= -(4/3) *x+b .
Now we have to find b. To do that pls remember that the point (-12;10) belongs to the required line y= -(4/3) *x+b . That means:
10=-(4/3)*(-12)+b => 10=16+b => b=-6
So substitute b in equation (1) and get:
y=-(4/3)*x-6

Now we can solve this question in the form z = a + bi, in this case where a = 18 cos169, and b = 18 sin169. This is as a = r cos Ф and b = r sin Ф -
sin169 is positive, while cos169 is negative, thus -
a = -17.6692893021...,
b = 3.43456191678...
Rectangular Form, z = -17.67 + i3.43
Hope that helps!
A clinical trial tests a method designed to increase the probability of conceiving a girl. In the study 290 babies were born, and 261 of them were girls. Use the sample data to construct a 99% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of girls born. Based on the result, does the method appear to be effective?
Answer:
The 99% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of girls born is between 85.46% and 94.54%.
Usually, babies are equally as likely to be boys or girls. Here, it is desired to increase the probability of conceiving a girl, which is achieved, considering the lower bound of the confidence interval is considerably above 50%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence interval for the proportion:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
In which
z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
For this problem, we have that:
[tex]n = 290, \pi = \frac{261}{290} = 0.9[/tex]
99% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.575[/tex].
The lower limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.9 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.9*0.1}{290}} = 0.8546[/tex]
The upper limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.9 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.9*0.1}{290}} = 0.9454[/tex]
Percentage:
Proportion multplied by 100.
0.8546*100 = 85.46%
0.9454*100 = 94.54%
The 99% confidence interval estimate of the percentage of girls born is between 85.46% and 94.54%.

Kimberly is a program director for the channel KID. She tracked the cartoons shown on the channel for a week. The probability that the show had animals in it was 0.7. The probability that the show aired more than 10 times was 0.4. The probability that the show had animals in it and aired more than 10 times was 0.2. Which equation shows the correct use of the addition rule to determine the probability that a randomly selected show had animals in it or aired more than 10 times?
Options
0.7+0.2−0.4=0.5 0.7+0.2=0.9 0.7+0.4=1.1 0.4+0.2=0.6 0.7+0.4−0.2=0.9Answer:
[tex](E)0.7+0.4-0.2=0.9[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
In probability theory
[tex]P$(A or B)=P(A)+P(B)$-$P(A and B)[/tex]
Let the event that the show had animals in it = A
P(A)=0.7
Let the event that the show aired more than 10 times =B
P(B)=0.4
P(A and B)= 0.2
[tex]P$(A or B)$=0.7+0.4-0.2=0.9[/tex]
Therefore, the equation which shows the correct use of the addition rule to determine the probability that a randomly selected show had animals in it or aired more than 10 times is:
[tex]0.7+0.4-0.2=0.9[/tex]
The correct option is E.
