(2−2n)−(5n−27) >0

distribute

2-2n -5n +27 >0

combine like terms

-7n +29 >0

subtract 29 from each side

-7n> -29

divide by -7 (flips the inequality)

n < -29/-7

n <4.14

natural numbers are 1,2,3,4......

n must be 1,2,3,4

Answer: 1,2,3,4

(2 - 2n) - (5n -27) > 0

-7n +27 + 2 > 0

-7n > -29

n < 29/7 < 4.143

So the natural values of n to make the expression positive are

1, 2, 3 and 4 (answer)

Leona [35]

Answer:

There is no evidence that there is no significant difference between the sample means

Step-by-step explanation:

given that a statistics instructor who teaches a lecture section of 160 students wants to determine whether students have more difficulty with one-tailed hypothesis tests or with two-tailed hypothesis tests. On the next exam, 80 of the students, chosen at random, get a version of the exam with a 10-point question that requires a one-tailed test. The other 80 students get a question that is identical except that it requires a two-tailed test. The one-tailed students average 7.81 points, and their standard deviation is 1.06 points

The two-tailed students average 7.64 points, and their standard deviation is 1.33 points.

Group One tailed X Two tailed Y

Mean 7.8100 7.6400

SD 1.0600 1.3300

SEM 0.1185 0.1487

N 80 80

$H_0:\bar x=\bar y\\H_a: \bar x \neq \bar y$

(Two tailed test)

The mean of One tailed X minus Two tailed Y equals 0.1700

t = 0.8940

df = 158

p value =0.3727

p is greater than alpha 0.05

There is no evidence that there is no significant difference between the sample means

Fed [463]

Answer:

we cannot conclude hat the proportion of wives married less than two years who planned to have children is significantly higher than the proportion of wives married five years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in a study on the fertility of married women conducted by Martin O’Connell and Carolyn C. Rogers for the Census Bureau in 1979, two groups of childless wives aged 25 to 29 were selected at random, and each was asked if she eventually planned to have a child. One group was selected from among wives married less than two years and the other from among wives married five years.

Let X be the group married less than 2 years and Y less than 5 years

X Y Total

Sample size 300 300 600

Favouring 240 288 528

p 0.8 0.96 0.88

$H_0: p_x=p_y\\H_a: p_x>p_y$

p difference = -0.16

Std error for difference = $\sqrt{0.88*0.12/600} =0.01327$

Test statistic = p difference/std error=-6.03

p value <0.000001

Since p is less than alpha 0.05 we cannot conclude hat the proportion of wives married less than two years who planned to have children is significantly higher than the proportion of wives married five years

The standard form of the equation of a parabola is x = y2 + 10y + 22. What is the vertex form of the equation?

iVinArrow [24]

From the conics form of the equation, shown above, I look at what's multiplied on the unsquaredpart and see that 4p = 4, so p = 1. Then the focus is one unit above the vertex, at (0, 1), and the directrix is the horizontal line y = –1, one unit below the vertex.

vertex: (0, 0); focus: (0, 1); axis of symmetry: x = 0; directrix: y = –1

Graph y2 + 10y + x + 25 = 0, and state the vertex, focus, axis of symmetry, and directrix.

Since the y is squared in this equation, rather than the x, then this is a "sideways" parabola. To graph, I'll do my T-chart backwards, picking y-values first and then finding the corresponding x-values for x = –y2 – 10y – 25:

To convert the equation into conics form and find the exact vertex, etc, I'll need to convert the equation to perfect-square form. In this case, the squared side is already a perfect square, so:

y2 + 10y + 25 = –x
(y + 5)2 = –1(x – 0)

This tells me that 4p = –1, so p = –1/4. Since the parabola opens to the left, then the focus is 1/4 units to the left of the vertex. I can see from the equation above that the vertex is at (h, k) = (0, –5), so then the focus must be at (–1/4, –5). The parabola is sideways, so the axis of symmetry is, too. The directrix, being perpendicular to the axis of symmetry, is then vertical, and is 1/4 units to the right of the vertex. Putting this all together, I get:

vertex: (0, –5); focus: (–1/4, –5); axis of symmetry: y = –5; directrix: x = 1/4

Find the vertex and focus of y2 + 6y + 12x – 15 = 0

The y part is squared, so this is a sideways parabola. I'll get the y stuff by itself on one side of the equation, and then complete the square to convert this to conics form.

y2 + 6y – 15 = –12x
y2 + 6y + 9 – 15 = –12x + 9
(y + 3)2 – 15 = –12x + 9
(y + 3)2 = –12x + 9 + 15 = –12x + 24
(y + 3)2 = –12(x – 2)
(y – (–3))2 = 4(–3)(x – 2)

Then the vertex is at (h, k) = (2, –3) and the value of p is –3. Since y is squared and p is negative, then this is a sideways parabola that opens to the left. This puts the focus 3 units to the left of the vertex.

vertex: (2, –3); focus: (–1, –3)
