If it takes 8 hours for a bus with an average velocity of 65mph to travel from Amarillo to Austin then,
d = 65 (8) = 520 miles

The distance from Amarillo to Austin (or vice versa) is 520 miles.

If the function to get the distance traveled by the automobile is given by:
d(x) = 80 t
Then, the inverse variation relationship would be
d-1(x) = t = d / 80
Since d = 520
t = 520 / 80
t = 6.5 hours

It takes 6.5 hours for the automobile to complete the trip

Statistics can help decide the authorship of literary works. Sonnets by a certain Elizabethan poet are known to contain an avera
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

We conclude that the sonnets were written by by a certain Elizabethan poet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 8.9

Sample mean, \bar{x} =10.2

Sample size, n = 6

Alpha, α = 0.05

Population standard deviation, σ = 2.5

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

H_{0}: \mu = 8.88\\H_A: \mu > 8.88

We use One-tailed z test to perform this hypothesis.

a) Formula:

z_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} }

Putting all the values, we have

z_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{10.2 - 8.9}{\frac{2.5}{\sqrt{6}} } = 1.28

Now, z_{critical} \text{ at 0.05 level of significance } = 1.64

b) We calculate the p value with the help of z-table.

P-value = 0.1003

The p-value is greater than the significance level which is 0.05

c) Since the p-value is greater than the significance level, there is not enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and accept the null hypothesis.

Thus, we conclude that the sonnets were written by by a certain Elizabethan poet.

Maria is renting kayaks from a local shop that charges a $10 fee, plus an hourly rate of $7.50. For how long can Maria rent the
vovangra [49]
In this case, Maria is rent a kayaks that charge a $10 upfront fee, with an hourly rate of $7.50. Then the equation of the price should look like this: f(x)= 10+7.5x

If Maria has a total money of 70$, then the duration of rent should be:
f(x)= 10+7.5x
70= 10+ 7.5x
7.5x= 70-10
x= 60/7.5= 8 hours

Use green's theorem to compute the area inside the ellipse x252+y2172=1. use the fact that the area can be written as ∬ddxdy=12∫
Pavel [41]

The area of the ellipse E is given by

\displaystyle\iint_E\mathrm dA=\iint_E\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy

To use Green's theorem, which says

\displaystyle\int_{\partial E}L\,\mathrm dx+M\,\mathrm dy=\iint_E\left(\frac{\partial M}{\partial x}-\frac{\partial L}{\partial y}\right)\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy

(\partial E denotes the boundary of E), we want to find M(x,y) and L(x,y) such that

\dfrac{\partial M}{\partial x}-\dfrac{\partial L}{\partial y}=1

and then we would simply compute the line integral. As the hint suggests, we can pick

\begin{cases}M(x,y)=\dfrac x2\\\\L(x,y)=-\dfrac y2\end{cases}\implies\begin{cases}\dfrac{\partial M}{\partial x}=\dfrac12\\\\\dfrac{\partial L}{\partial y}=-\dfrac12\end{cases}\implies\dfrac{\partial M}{\partial x}-\dfrac{\partial L}{\partial y}=1

The line integral is then

\displaystyle\frac12\int_{\partial E}-y\,\mathrm dx+x\,\mathrm dy

We parameterize the boundary by

\begin{cases}x(t)=5\cos t\\y(t)=17\sin t\end{cases}

with 0\le t\le2\pi. Then the integral is

\displaystyle\frac12\int_0^{2\pi}(-17\sin t(-5\sin t)+5\cos t(17\cos t))\,\mathrm dt

=\displaystyle\frac{85}2\int_0^{2\pi}\sin^2t+\cos^2t\,\mathrm dt=\frac{85}2\int_0^{2\pi}\mathrm dt=85\pi

###

Notice that x^{2/3}+y^{2/3}=4^{2/3} kind of resembles the equation for a circle with radius 4, x^2+y^2=4^2. We can change coordinates to what you might call "pseudo-polar":

\begin{cases}x(t)=4\cos^3t\\y(t)=4\sin^3t\end{cases}

which gives

x(t)^{2/3}+y(t)^{2/3}=(4\cos^3t)^{2/3}+(4\sin^3t)^{2/3}=4^{2/3}(\cos^2t+\sin^2t)=4^{2/3}

as needed. Then with 0\le t\le2\pi, we compute the area via Green's theorem using the same setup as before:

\displaystyle\iint_E\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy=\frac12\int_0^{2\pi}(-4\sin^3t(12\cos^2t(-\sin t))+4\cos^3t(12\sin^2t\cos t))\,\mathrm dt

=\displaystyle24\int_0^{2\pi}(\sin^4t\cos^2t+\cos^4t\sin^2t)\,\mathrm dt

=\displaystyle24\int_0^{2\pi}\sin^2t\cos^2t\,\mathrm dt

=\displaystyle6\int_0^{2\pi}(1-\cos2t)(1+\cos2t)\,\mathrm dt

=\displaystyle6\int_0^{2\pi}(1-\cos^22t)\,\mathrm dt

=\displaystyle3\int_0^{2\pi}(1-\cos4t)\,\mathrm dt=6\pi
