Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Please, share the answer options next time.

1) f(x) = 2x^2– x – 6 is a quadratic function.

2) The coefficients of this polynomial are a = 2, b = -1 and c = -6

2) Its graph opens up.

3) The x-value of the axis of symmetry and the vertex is x = -b / (2a), which here comes out to x = -(-1) / [2(2)], or x = 1/4

4) the y coordinate of the vertex is f(1/4), or -6 1/8

5) The vertex is at (1/4, -6 1/8)

6) The y-intercept is at f(0): 2(0)^2 - 0 - 6 = -6 => (0, -6)

How many metres of cloth 4.4 m wide will be required to make a conical tent of radius of whose base is 3.5m and whose height is

musickatia [10]

$\Huge{\boxed{\sf{\red{22.98m}}}}$

<h3><u>Givєn</u> :</h3>

Radius of the tent,r = 3.5 m
Height of the tent, h = 8.4 m

length of the cloth required.

<h3><u>Solution</u> :</h3>

According to the question,

Slant height, l = $\displaystyle{\sf{ \sqrt{{r}^2 + {h}^2} = \sqrt{{3.5}^2 + {8.5}^2}}}$

$\implies$ $\displaystyle{\sf{ = 9.192m}}$

curved surface area = $\displaystyle{\sf{ \pi rl}}$

$\implies$ $\displaystyle{\sf{ \frac{22}{7} \times 3.5 \times 9.192{m}^2}}$

$\implies$ $\displaystyle{\sf{ 101.112}}$

i.e., Area of the cloth is 101.11m²

Now, length of the cloth required = $\displaystyle{\sf{ \frac{area}{width}}}$

$\implies$ $\displaystyle{\sf{ \frac{101.11}{4.4}}}$

$\implies$ $\large{\boxed{\sf{\red{22.98m}}}}$

A coat hanger is in the shape of isosceles triangle ABC shown in the figure. Sides AB and BC are congruent. If , then = °.

Degger [83]

Two figures are said to be congruent when they have the same shape and size or if one object is a mirror image of the other object. The sides AB and BC are congruent when they have equal lengths of the sides. An isosceles triangle two sides are equal in length.

Suppose that the Department of Transportation would like to test the hypothesis that the average age of cars on the road is less

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

$z=\frac{10.6-12}{\frac{4.1}{\sqrt{45}}}=-2.29$

$z_{critc}= -1.64$

Since our calculates values is lower than the critical value we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at 5% of significance. And the best conclusion for this case is:

B. Since the test statistic is less than the critical value, we can conclude that the average age of cars on the road is less than 12 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X=10.6$ represent the sample mean

$\sigma=4.1$ represent the population standard deviation

$n=45$ sample size

$\mu_o =12$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.05$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is less than 12, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu \geq 12$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu < 12$

Since we know the population deviation, is better apply a z test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

$z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

z-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$z=\frac{10.6-12}{\frac{4.1}{\sqrt{45}}}=-2.29$

Critical value

For this case since w ehave a left tailed distribution we need to find a value who accumulates 0.05 of the area on th left in the normal standard distribution, and we can use the following excel code:

"=NORM.INV(0.05,0,1)"

$z_{critc}= -1.64$

Conclusion

Since our calculates values is lower than the critical value we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at 5% of significance. And the best conclusion for this case is:

B. Since the test statistic is less than the critical value, we can conclude that the average age of cars on the road is less than 12 years.
