Answer:

A. the leading coefficients of f (x) and g (x) are opposites

Step-by-step explanation:

A. the leading coefficients of f (x) and g (x) are opposites

A quadratic function in its generic form is:

f (x) = ax2 + bx + c

g (x) = dx2 + ex + f

The sum of the functions is:

(f + g) (x) = (a + d) x2 + (b + e) x + (c + f)

For the function to be linear necessarily:

a = -d

The percentage of body fat of a random sample of 36 men aged 20 to 29 found a sample mean of 14.42. Find a 95% confidence interv

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

$14.42-1.96\frac{6.95}{\sqrt{36}}=12.150$

$14.42+ 1.96\frac{6.95}{\sqrt{36}}=16.690$

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (12.150;16.690)

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X=14.42$ represent the sample mean

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

$\sigma=6.95$ represent the population standard deviation

n=36 represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of $\alpha=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-NORM.INV(0.025,0,1)".And we see that $z_{\alpha/2}=1.96$

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

$14.42-1.96\frac{6.95}{\sqrt{36}}=12.150$

$14.42+ 1.96\frac{6.95}{\sqrt{36}}=16.690$

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (12.150;16.690)

A fitted multiple regression equation is Y = 28 + 5X1 - 4X2 + 7X3 + 2X4. When X1 increases 2 units and X2 increases 2 units as w

ad-work [718]

Answer:

A. Increase by 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a fitted multiple regression equation is

$Y = 28 + 5X_1 -4X_2 + 7X_3 + 2X_4$

This is a multiple regression line with dependent variable y and independent variables x1, x2, x3 and x4

The coefficients of independent variables represent the slope.

In other words the coefficients represent the rate of change of y when xi is changed by 1 unit.

Given that x3 and x4 remain unchanged and x1 increases by 2 and x2 by 2 units

Since slope of x1 is 5, we find for one unit change in x1 we can have 5 units change in y

i.e. for 2 units change in x1, we expect 10 units change in Y

Similarly for 2 units change in x2, we expect -2(4) units change in Y

Put together we have

$10-8 =2$ change in y

Since positive 2, there is an increase by 2

A. Increase by 2

A torch and a battery cost £2.50 altogether. The torch costs £2.00 more than the battery.

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $t$ represent the cost of the torch and $b$ represent the cost of the battery.

The torch and a battery cost £2.50 altogether.

$\Rightarrow t+b=2.50$

The torch costs £2.00 more than the battery.

$\Rightarrow t=b+2.00$

We substitute the second equation into the first equation to get;

$\Rightarrow b+2.00+b=2.50$

$\Rightarrow 2b=2.50-2.00$

£2.50

$\Rightarrow 2b=0.50$

$\Rightarrow b=0.25$

The price of the battery is £0.25

We express this as a fraction of the total cost which is £2.50 to get;

$\frac{0.25}{2.5}=\frac{1}{10}$

According to a Pew Research survey, about 27% of American adults are pessimistic about the future of marriage and the family. Th

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

P(X≤5)=0.5357

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the binomial model, the probability that x adults from the sample, are pessimistic about the future is calculated as:

$P(x)=\frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!} *p^{x}*(1-p)^{n-x}$

Where n is the size of the sample and p is the probability that an adult is pessimistic about the future of marriage and family. So, replacing n by 20 and p by 0.27, we get:

$P(x)=\frac{20!}{x!(20-x)!}*0.27^{x}*(1-0.27)^{20-x}$

Now, 25% of 20 people is equal to 5 people, so the probability that, in a sample of 20 American adults, 25% or fewer of the people are pessimistic about the future of marriage and family is equal to calculated the probability that in the sample of 20 adults, 5 people of fewer are pessimistic about the future of marriage and family.

Then, that probability is calculated as:

P(X≤5)= P(1) + P(2) + P(3) + P(4) + P(5)

Where:

$P(0)=\frac{20!}{0!(20-0)!}*0.27^{0}*(1-0.27)^{20-0}=0.0018$

$P(1)=\frac{20!}{1!(20-1)!}*0.27^{1}*(1-0.27)^{20-1}=0.0137$

$P(2)=\frac{20!}{2!(20-2)!}*0.27^{2}*(1-0.27)^{20-2}=0.0480\\P(3)=\frac{20!}{3!(20-3)!}*0.27^{3}*(1-0.27)^{20-3}=0.1065\\P(4)=\frac{20!}{4!(20-4)!}*0.27^{4}*(1-0.27)^{20-4}=0.1675\\P(5)=\frac{20!}{5!(20-5)!}*0.27^{5}*(1-0.27)^{20-5}=0.1982$

Finally, P(X≤5) is equal to:

P(X≤5) = 0.0018+0.0137 + 0.0480 + 0.1065 + 0.1675 + 0.1982

P(X≤5) = 0.5357
