Hello there.

If p and q are nonzero integers, which pair of points must lie in the same quadrant?

Answer: The correct option is (B). (p, q) and (2p, 2q).

Step-by-step explanation: Given that p and q are non-zero integers.

We are to select the correct pair of points that must lie in the same quadrant.

FIRST PAIR : (p, q) and (q, p)

Let, (p, q) = (2, -3), then (q, p) = (-3, 2).

Therefore, the point (p, q) lies in Quadrant IV but the point (q, p) lies in Quadrant II.

This implies that the two points does not lie in the same quadrant.

Thus, this option is not correct.

SECOND PAIR : (p, q) and (2p, 2q)

We see that, if p is positive, then 2p will also be positive and if p is negative, then 2p will also be negative.

Similar is the case of q.

Therefore, the point (p, q) and the point (2p, 2q) lies in the same quadrant.

For example, if (p, q) = (1, 3), then (2p, 2q) = (2, 6). Both (1, 3) and (2, 6) lie in Quadrant I.

Thus, this option is CORRECT.

THIRD PAIR : (p, q) and (-p, -q)

Let, (p, q) = (2, 3), then (-p, -q) = (-2, -3).

Therefore, the point (p, q) lies in Quadrant I but the point (-p, -q) lies in Quadrant III.

This implies that the two points does not lie in the same quadrant.

Thus, this option is not correct.

FOURTH PAIR : (p, q) and (p-2, q-2)

Let, (p, q) = (1, -3), then (p-2, q-2) = (-1, -5).

Therefore, the point (p, q) lies in Quadrant IV but the point (p-2, q-2) lies in Quadrant III.

This implies that the two points does not lie in the same quadrant.

Thus, this option is not correct.

Hence, the correct pair of points is (p, q) and (2p, 2q).

Option (B) is CORRECT.

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

For this case the statistic calculated is $t= 1.37$

$p_v =0.17$

So the p value is a very high value and using the significance level given $\alpha=0.1$ we see that $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and there is enough evidence to conclude that we have a difference between the two means at 10% of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X_{A}$ represent the mean for the sample for A

$\bar X_{B}$ represent the mean for the sample B

$s_{A}$ represent the sample standard deviation for the sample A

$s_{B}=$ represent the sample standard deviation for the sample B

$n_{A}=20$ sample size for the group poisoned

$n_{B}=20$ sample size for the group unpoisoned

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the two means are equal or not , the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu_{A} - \mu_{B} =0$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu_{A} - \mu_{B} \neq 0$

For this case is better apply a t test to compare means, and the statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X_{A}-\bar X_{B}}{\sqrt{\frac{s^2_{A}}{n_{A}}+\frac{s^2_{B}}{n_{B}}}}$ (1)

t-test: Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine whether the means of two groups are equal to each other.

Calculate the statistic

For this case the statistic calculated is $t= 1.37$

Statistical decision

The significance level is 0.1 $\alpha=0.1$ , but we can calculate the p value for this test. The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:

$df=n_{A}+n_{B}-2$

The p value on this case is given

$p_v =0.17$

So the p value is a very high value and using the significance level given $\alpha=0,1$ we see that $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and there is enough evidence to conclude that we have a difference between the two means at 10% of significance.

A quadratic pattern has a second term equal to 1,a third term equal to -16 and a fifth term equal to -14

chubhunter [2.5K]

Given are several terms in a quadratic pattern:

a1 = ?
a2 = 1
a3 = -16
a4 = ?
a5 = -14

let:

x y
1 ?
2 1
3 -16
4 ?
5 -14

considering the 2nd term and 3rd term, we can determine a quadratic function:

y = -17x + 35

therefore,

a1 = 18
a4 = -33

trapecia [35]

Answer:

In a survey of 2,300 people who owned a certain type of car, 1,610 said they would buy that type of car again. What percent of the people surveyed were satisfied with the car?

1610/2300x100=

70%

Step-by-step explanation:

total number of people for the survey= 2300

those that wanted to buy the car= 1610

percentage= 1610/2300x 100=0.7x 100

percentage= 70%
