There is 75% decrease.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Old value = 688 qt

New value = 172 qt

Change = New value - Old value

Change = 172 - 688

Change = -516 qt

The negative sign indicates decrease.

Decrease percent = $\frac{Change}{Old\ value}*100$

Decrease percent = $\frac{516}{688}*100$

Decrease percent = $\frac{51600}{688}$

Decrease percent = 75%

There is 75% decrease.

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval the average maximum power is (596.0 to 644.0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Average maximum of the sample = x = 620 HP

Standard Deviation = s = 45 HP

Sample size = n = 16

We have to calculate the 95% confidence interval. The value of Population standard deviation is unknown, and value of sample standard deviation is known. Therefore, we will use one sample t-test to build the confidence interval.

Degrees of freedom = df = n - 1 = 15

Critical t-value associated with 95% confidence interval and 15 degrees of freedom, as seen from t-table = $t_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}$ = 2.131

The formula to calculate the confidence interval is:

$(x-t_{\frac{\alpha}{2} } \times \frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }, x+t_{\frac{\alpha}{2} } \times \frac{s}{\sqrt{n} })$

We have all the required values. Substituting them in the above expression, we get:

$(620-2.131 \times \frac{45}{\sqrt{16} }, 620+2.131 \times \frac{45}{\sqrt{16} })\\\\ =(596.0 , 644.0)$

Thus, the 95% confidence interval the average maximum power is (596.0 to 644.0)

Evaluate the integral. 17 sin2(x) cos3(x) dx step 1 since 17 sin2(x) cos3(x) dx has an odd power of of cos(x), we will convert a

lord [1]

To evaluate 17 int (sin^2 (x) cos^3(x))
From Trig identity. Cos^2(x) + sin^2(x) =1. Cos^2(x) = 1 - sin^2 (x)
Cos^3(x) = cosx * (1 - sin^2 (x)) = cosx - cosxsin^2x
So we have 17 int (sin^2x(cosx - cosxsin^2x))
int (sin^2x(cosx)dx - int (sin^4xcosx)dx. ----------(1)
Let u = sinx then du = cosxdx
Substituting into (1) we have
int (u^2du) - int (u^4du)
u^3/3 - u^5/5
Substitute value for u we have
(sinx)^3/3 - (sinx)^5/5
Hence we have 17 [ sin^3x/3 - sin^5x/5]
