11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

________{0.50 if x < 3

________{1.00 if 3 ≤ x < 6

f(x) = ____{1.50 if 6 ≤ x < 9

________{2.00 if 9 ≤ x < 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the information above :

Less than Employees = $0.5 increase per hour

Atleast 3 but less than 6 years employees = $1.00 increase per hour

Atleast 6 but less than 9 years employees = $1.50 increase per hour

Atleast 9 but less than 12 years employees = $2.00 increase per hour

The information above can be written as a piecewise function :

________{0.50 if x < 3

________{1.00 if 3 ≤ x < 6

f(x) = ____{1.50 if 6 ≤ x < 9

________{2.00 if 9 ≤ x < 12

The constraints is represented in the piecewise function above with x being the number of years since employee has been in service.

In ADEF, f = 610 inches, e = 590 inches and ZE=70°. Find all possible values of ZF,

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

"76°" is the appropriate solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find attachment of the diagram according to the given query.

The given values are:

In ΔDEF,

f = 610 inches

e = 590

∠E = 70°

∠F = ?

By using the law of sines, we get

⇒ $\frac{Sin E}{e} =\frac{Sin F}{f}$

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ $\frac{Sin70^{\circ}}{590} =\frac{SinF}{610}$

On applying cross multiplication, we get

⇒ $SinF=\frac{610\times Sin 70^{\circ}}{590}$

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ $=\frac{61\times 0.95969262}{59}$

⇒ $=\frac{57.3212499}{59}$

⇒ $=0.971546608$

now,

⇒ $F=Sin^{-1}(0.971546608)$

⇒ $=76^{\circ}$

A new car is purchased for 20300 dollars. The value of the car depreciates at 9.5% per year. What will the value of the car be,

Iteru [2.4K]

The starting value is 20,300, and the value is decreasing by 9.5% each year.

Because it decreases by 9.5% each year based on the previous amount, we use an exponential decay model.

A decrease by 9.5% corresponds to multiplying by 91.5% each year.

We write . We plug in 11 years for t.

$A(t)=23000(0.915)^{t}\\\\A(11)=23000(0.915)^{11}\\\\A(11)=7671.18$

$7,671.18

In a 3M Privacy Filters poll, 806 adults were asked to identify their favorite seat when they fly, and 492 of them chose a windo

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If majority of adults prefer a window seat when they fly, it means that more than half or more than 0.5 of the population prefer a window seat when they fly.

We would set up the hypothesis test.

For the null hypothesis,

p = 0.45

For the alternative hypothesis,

p > 0.5

Considering the population proportion, probability of success, p = 0.5

q = probability of failure = 1 - p

q = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5

Considering the sample,

Sample proportion, P = x/n

Where

x = number of success = 492

n = number of samples = 806

P = 492/806 = 0.61

We would determine the test statistic which is the z score

z = (P - p)/√pq/n

z = (0.61 - 0.5)/√(0.5 × 0.5)/806 = 6.24

From the normal distribution table, the p value < 0.00001

Since alpha, 0.01 < than the p value, then we would reject the null hypothesis. Therefore, at a 1% significance level, we can conclude that the majority of adults prefer a window seat when they fly.
