For this case we have a function of the form:

Where,
A: initial amount
b: growth rate (for b> 1)
x: independent variable
y: dependent variable
We then have the following function:

Using the definition, the following statements are correct:
1) The function is exponential
2) The function increases by a factor of 2.5 for each unit increase in x
3) The domain of the function is all real numbers
Answer: The conditional statements are not in the correct form to make a conclusion using the law of syllogism. “If p, then q and if p, then r” cannot be used to draw a conclusion using the law of syllogism. The law of syllogism could be used if the hypothesis in the second statement was "if two pairs of congruent angles are formed."
Step-by-step explanation:
"If p, then q and if p, then r" cannot be used to draw a conclusion using the law of syllogism.
Neither of the conclusions of the conditional statements are the hypothesis of the other.
"If two pairs of congruent angles are formed" could be the hypothesis of the second statement.
** Both can be used to answer the question :)
Answer:
The null and alternative hypothesis for this test are

Step-by-step explanation:
If we perform a hypothesis test, we can reject or not reject the null hypothesis.
To conclude that the tires have a decreased stopping distance (μ<215), we should state the null hypothesis
and then go on with the analysis to reject it (or not).
If the null hypothesis is rejected, the claim of the manufacturer is rigth.
The alternative hypothesis would be
, that would turn rigth if the null hypothesis is rejected.
