The cost for a different taxi company is expressed with the equation y = 1.65x + 2.35, where x represents the miles driven and y

represents the cost per trip. If Susan takes a taxi for the 14-mile trip from the bus terminal to her house, how much will the ride cost?

To solve this, all you have to do is plug in the 14 where the x value is:
y=1.65(14) +2.35 which equals 25.45

Answer: 25.45 is the cost for a different taxi company

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 1.65x + 2.35

if x represents the miles driven then you should multiply 1.65 · 14

y = (1.65 · 14) + 2.35

y= 23.1 + 2.35

y= 25.45

The rabbit population on a small island is observed to be given by the function P(t) = 130t − 0.3t^4 + 1100 where t is the time

Montano1993 [528]

The maximum occurs when the derivative of the function is equal to zero.
$P(t)=-0.3t^{4}+130t+1100 \\ P'(t)=-1.2t^{3}+130 \\ 0=-1.2t^{3}+130 \\ 1.2t^{3}=130 \\ t^{3}= \frac{325}{3} \\ t=4.76702$
Then evaluate the function for that time to find the maximum population.
$P(t)=-0.3t^{4}+130t \\ P(4.76702)=-0.3*4.76702^{4}+130*4.76702+1100 \\ P(4.76702)=1564.79201$
Depending on the teacher, the "correct" answer will either be the exact decimal answer or the greatest integer of that value since you cannot have part of a rabbit.

∆ABC and ∆FDE are congruent by the criterion. (Use the three-letter abbreviation without spaces.)

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

x = 11, y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔABC and ΔFDE are congruent by the postulate SSS

Equate the congruent sides in the 2 triangles

BC = ED, that is

x + 3 = 14 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

x = 11

-------------------------------------

DF = AB, that is

x - y = 3 ← substitute x = 11

11 - y = 3 ( subtract 11 from both sides )

- y = 3 - 11 = - 8 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

y = 8

Kate made a box to hold her jewelry collection. She used 42 inches of wood to build the sides of the box. If the box was 9 Inche

antoniya [11.8K]

We can use the 9 inches wide to determine that 18 inches of the 42 inches are the wide sides. 42 - 18 = 24, so we divide 24 by how many long sides there are, 2. 24 ÷ 2 = 12. The box was 12 inches long.

The heat evolved in calories per gram of a cement mixture is approximately normally distributed. The mean is thought to be 100,

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

A.the type 1 error probability is $\mathbf{\alpha = 0.0244 }$

B. β = 0.0122

C. β = 0.0000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean = 100

standard deviation = 2

sample size = 9

The null and the alternative hypothesis can be computed as follows:

$\mathtt{H_o: \mu = 100}$

$\mathtt{H_1: \mu \neq 100}$

A. If the acceptance region is defined as $98.5 < \overline x > 101.5$ , find the type I error probability $\alpha$ .

Assuming the critical region lies within $\overline x < 98.5$ or $\overline x > 101.5$ , for a type 1 error to take place, then the sample average x will be within the critical region when the true mean heat evolved is $\mu = 100$

∴

$\mathtt{\alpha = P( type \ 1 \ error ) = P( reject \ H_o)}$

$\mathtt{\alpha = P( \overline x < 98.5 ) + P( \overline x > 101.5 )}$

when $\mu = 100$

$\mathtt{\alpha = P \begin {pmatrix} \dfrac{\overline X - \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} < \dfrac{\overline 98.5 - 100}{\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{9}}} \end {pmatrix} + \begin {pmatrix}P(\dfrac{\overline X - \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} > \dfrac{101.5 - 100}{\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{9}}} \end {pmatrix} }$

$\mathtt{\alpha = P ( Z < \dfrac{-1.5}{\dfrac{2}{3}} ) + P(Z > \dfrac{1.5}{\dfrac{2}{3}}) }$

$\mathtt{\alpha = P ( Z 2.25) }$

$\mathtt{\alpha = P ( Z$

From the standard normal distribution tables

$\mathtt{\alpha = 0.0122+( 1- 0.9878) })$

$\mathtt{\alpha = 0.0122+( 0.0122) })$

$\mathbf{\alpha = 0.0244 }$

Thus, the type 1 error probability is $\mathbf{\alpha = 0.0244 }$

B. Find beta for the case where the true mean heat evolved is 103.

The probability of type II error is represented by β. Type II error implies that we fail to reject null hypothesis $\mathtt{H_o}$

Thus;

β = P( type II error) - P( fail to reject $\mathtt{H_o}$ )

∴

$\mathtt{\beta = P(98.5 \leq \overline x \leq 101.5) }$

Given that $\mu = 103$

$\mathtt{\beta = P( \dfrac{98.5 -103}{\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{9}}} \leq \dfrac{\overline X - \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{n}} \leq \dfrac{101.5-103}{\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{9}}}) }$

$\mathtt{\beta = P( \dfrac{-4.5}{\dfrac{2}{3}} \leq Z \leq \dfrac{-1.5}{\dfrac{2}{3}}) }$

$\mathtt{\beta = P(-6.75 \leq Z \leq -2.25) }$

$\mathtt{\beta = P(z< -2.25) - P(z < -6.75 )}$

From standard normal distribution table

β = 0.0122 - 0.0000

β = 0.0122

C. Find beta for the case where the true mean heat evolved is 105. This value of beta is smaller than the one found in part (b) above. Why?

$\mathtt{\beta = P(98.5 \leq \overline x \leq 101.5) }$

Given that $\mu = 105$

$\mathtt{\beta = P( \dfrac{98.5 -105}{\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{9}}} \leq \dfrac{\overline X - \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{n}} \leq \dfrac{101.5-105}{\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{9}}}) }$

$\mathtt{\beta = P( \dfrac{-6.5}{\dfrac{2}{3}} \leq Z \leq \dfrac{-3.5}{\dfrac{2}{3}}) }$

$\mathtt{\beta = P(-9.75 \leq Z \leq -5.25) }$

$\mathtt{\beta = P(z< -5.25) - P(z < -9.75 )}$

From standard normal distribution table

β = 0.0000 - 0.0000

β = 0.0000

The reason why the value of beta is smaller here is that since the difference between the value for the true mean and the hypothesized value increases, the probability of type II error decreases.
