Answer: The function that modes this situation would be: y = 475(1 + .0125)^x.

This is an example of an exponential equation. These equations are always in the form y = ab^x.

The a value is the starting value. The b value is the interest rate. The x value is the number of years.

The only thing to be careful about is the rate. We are adding 1.25% or 0.125. Make sure that you are adding 1 whole to the 1.25% and don't just use 0.125.

A random sample of 50 units is drawn from a production process every half hour. the true fraction of nonconforming products manu
Naya [18.7K]

solution:

The probability mass function for binomial distribution is,

 

Where,

X=0,1,2,3,…..; q=1-p

find the probability that (p∧ ≤ 0.06) , substitute the values of sample units (n) , and the probability of nonconformities (p) in the probability mass function of binomial distribution.

Consider x   to be the number of non-conformities. It follows a binomial distribution with n   being 50 and p  being 0.03. That is,

binomial (50,0.02)

Also, the estimate of the true probability is,

p∧  = x/50

The probability mass function for binomial distribution is,

 

Where,

X=0,1,2,3,…..; q=1-p

The calculation is obtained as

P(p^ ≤ 0.06) = p(x/20 ≤ 0.06)

         = 50cx ₓ (0.03)x ₓ (1-0.03)50-x  

=    (50c0 ₓ (0.03)0 ₓ (1-0.03)50-0 + 50c1(0.03)1 ₓ (1-0.03)50-1 + 50c2 ₓ (0.03)2 ₓ (1-0.03)50-2 +50c3 ₓ      (0.03)3 ₓ (1- 0.03)50-3 )

=(   ₓ (0.03)0 ₓ (1-0.03)50-0 +  ₓ (0.03)1 ₓ (1-0.03)50-1 +   ₓ (0.03)2 ₓ (1-0.03)50-2   ₓ (0.03)3 ₓ (1-0.03)50-3 )

According to a 2014 research study of national student engagement in the U.S., the average college student spends 17 hours per w
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We would set up the hypothesis test. This is a test of a single population mean since we are dealing with mean

For the null hypothesis,

µ = 17

For the alternative hypothesis,

µ < 17

This is a left tailed test.

Since the population standard deviation is not given, the distribution is a student's t.

Since n = 80,

Degrees of freedom, df = n - 1 = 80 - 1 = 79

t = (x - µ)/(s/√n)

Where

x = sample mean = 15.6

µ = population mean = 17

s = samples standard deviation = 4.5

t = (15.6 - 17)/(4.5/√80) = - 2.78

We would determine the p value using the t test calculator. It becomes

p = 0.0034

Since alpha, 0.05 > than the p value, 0.0043, then we would reject the null hypothesis.

The data supports the professor’s claim. The average number of hours per week spent studying for students at her college is less than 17 hours per week.

If f(x) = 3 – 2x and 1/x+5, what is the value of (f/g)(8)? –169 –1 13 104
Basile [38]
I'm assuming that this is the complete question.
If f(x) = 3 – 2x and g(x)=1/(x+5), what is the value of (f/g)(8)? a) –169       b) –1      c) 13     d) 104
x = 8
f(x) = 3 -2xf(8) = 3 - 2(8) = 3 - 16 = -13
g(x) = 1/(x+5)g(8) = 1/(8+5) = 1/13
(f/g)(8)f(8)/g(8) = -13/ (1/13) = -13 * 13 = -169  Choice A :)
