Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = 338

Width = X

Length = 2x

2x * x = 338

3x = 338

x = 112.7

Which represents the reflection of f(x)= square root x over the x-axis?

antiseptic1488 [7]

The reflection of f(x)=sqrt(x) over x-axis will be represented by option a. This is because it is the reflection of the imaginary part of the function f(x)= sqrt(x). Hence the correct answer is a.

The price that a company charged for a basketball hoop is given by the equation 50 - 5x^2 where x is the number of hoops that ar

DiKsa [7]

Answer: The correct option is first, the number of basketball hoops did the company previously produce to make the same profit is 1.3 million hoops.

Explanation:

Let the number of basketball hoops did the company previously produce to make the same profit be x.

Total Revenue = Price * Quantity

The total revenue in million dollars is,

$\text{Total Revenue}=(50-5x^2)x$

$\text{Total Revenue}=50x-5x^3$

The total cost in million dollars is,

Total Cost = One unit cost * Quantity

$\text{Total Cost}=30x$

Profit = Total Revenue - Total Cost

$\text{Profit}=50x-5x^3-30x$

The profit is 15 million.

$15=20x-5x^3$

$5x^3-20x+15=0\\x^2-4x+3=0\\(x-1)(x^2+x-3)=0$

The value of x is 1 and $\frac{-1\pm \sqrt{13}}{2}$ .

The production is always positive therefore the value of x either 1 or 1.3. Since 1 million is not available in the options therefore the the correct optin is 1.3 million hoops.

Suppose that a jewelry store tracked the amount of emeralds they sold each week to more accurately estimate how many emeralds to

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

And for this case the 95% confidence interval is given by (2.13; 2.37)

We have a point of estimate for the sample mean with this formula:

$\bar X = \frac{Upper+ Lower}{2}= \frac{3.37+2.13}{2}= 2.75$

And for the margin of error we have the following estimation:

$ME= \frac{Upper -Lower}{2}= \frac{3.37-2.13}{2}= 0.62$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

And for this case the 95% confidence interval is given by (2.13; 2.37)

We have a point of estimate for the sample mean with this formula:

$\bar X = \frac{Upper+ Lower}{2}= \frac{3.37+2.13}{2}= 2.75$

And for the margin of error we have the following estimation:

$ME= \frac{Upper -Lower}{2}= \frac{3.37-2.13}{2}= 0.62$

Vaselesa [24]

Complete question:

Dr. Lyte wishes to study speed of Reaction Time to press a button in response to the onset of a lamp. The independent variable (V) is the color of the light produced by the lamp (red, orange, yellow, green, or blue) Since only 10 participants are available, she elects to administer the IV within-subjects with all 10 participants being exposed to all five levels of the color variable. The order of the color of the light presentation is to be counterbalanced. Using concepts from the textbook, why would Dr. Lyte need to use counterbalancing in this scenario?

Answer:

Here,

Independent variable (IV) is: the color of the light produced by the lamp (red, orange, yellow, green, or blue)

We are also told only 10 participants are available.

All 10 participants are being exposed to all five levels of the color variable in the same order.

Counterbalancing is said to be a technique used when establishing task order. It helps prevent introduction if cofounding variables.

Dr. Lyte will need to use counterbalancing technique in this scenario because some of the participants may be unable to understand difference in similar colours. Example some participants may not be able to differentiate between orange and red when the red colour comes after orange.

But using counterbalancing technique, Dr. Lyte can avoid such an error.
