Answer:

There are not 15 failures and 15 successes. A confidence interval can be computed by adding  2 failures and 2 successes .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Survey asked by 40 people

6 said that they were very concerned.

So the following statements correctly describe the above problem

The correct statement is , There are not 15 failures and 15 successes. A confidence interval can be computed by adding  2 failures and 2 successes .

ANSWER ALL 5 PARTS.
N76 [4]
A function f from a set A to a set B is defined as a relation that assings to each element  x in the set A exactly one element y in the set B. The set A is called the domain of the function while the set B is the range. So we have five statements and need to find some functions. Melissa decides to reserve a patch in her vegetable garden for growing bell peppers. If each side of the tomato patch is x feet, then we have a square patch as shown in the Figure below.

1.a) Write the function Wa(x) representing the width of the bell pepper patch.

We know that she wants its width to be half the width of the tomato patch. Let x be the width of the tomato patch, then the function that matches this statement is:

\boxed{Wa(x)=\frac{x}{2}}

1.b) Write the function La(x) representing the length of the bell pepper patch.

In this case Melissa wants <span>its length to exceed the length of the tomato patch by 2 feet. To do this we enlarge the length of the tomato patch 2 feet. Therefore the function is the following:

</span>\boxed{La(x)=x+2}
<span>
2. Ar</span>ea of the bell pepper patch in terms of x.

Given that the bell pepper patch is a rectangle, then t<span>he area of a rectangle is the product of the length and width. So:

</span>A=(\frac{x}{2})(x+2) \\ \\ \therefore \boxed{A=\frac{x(x+2)}{2}}
<span>
3. C</span><span>ombined area of the tomato patch and the bell pepper patch.

This function is the sum of both the area of the tomato patch and the bell pepper patch. So:

</span>Aar(x)=x^{2}+\frac{x(x+2)}{2} \rightarrow Aar(x)=x^{2}+ \frac{x^{2}}{2}+x \rightarrow Aar(x)=\frac{3x^{2}}{2}+x \\ \\ \therefore \boxed{Aar(x)=\frac{x(3x+2)}{2}}
<span>
4. W</span>rite the function Aa(x) for the remaining planting area in the garden.

The remaining planting area in the garden are the rectangles in red. So we need to subtract the width of the bell pepper patch from the width of the tomato patch and multiply it by 2. In mathematical language this is given by:<span>

</span>Aa(x)=2(x-\frac{x}{2}) \rightarrow Aa(x)=x

5. 
Find the area of the remaining space in the garden after planting tomatoes and bell peppers.

Given that <span>Melissa wants the area of the bell pepper patch to be 31.5 square feet, then it is true that:

</span>31.5=\frac{x(x+2)}{2} \rightarrow x^{2}+2x-64=0 \\ \\ solving \ for \ x: \\ x=7.06
<span>
Therefore the area of the remaining space is:

</span>\boxed{Aa(7.06)=7.06ft^{2}}

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

D. We can be 95% confident that the proportion of all cell phone users who use text messaging is between 73.1% and 76.9%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The interpretation of a confidence interval of level x% means that we are x% sure that the interval contains the true mean of the population.

In this problem, we have that:

The population are all the cell phone users.

The 95% confidence interval is (73.1%, 76.9%).

Which of the following is an appropriate interpretation of the 95% confidence interval?

D. We can be 95% confident that the proportion of all cell phone users who use text messaging is between 73.1% and 76.9%.

A company logo is made up of a square and three identical triangles. What is the area of the logo? Enter your answer in the box.
garri49 [273]
Given:
square with sides measuring 7 cm.
3 triangles attached to three sides of the square. A line bisecting one triangle is measured at 4 cm.

Area of a square = s² = (7cm)² = 49 cm²

Area of a triangle = hb/2 = (4cm*7cm)/2 = 14 cm² 
Area of the 3 triangles = 14 cm² x 3 = 42 cm²

Total area of the logo = 49 cm² + 42 cm² = 91 cm²

Determine the value of $a$. [asy] pair w=(0,4); pair x=(0,0); pair y=(4,0); pair z=y+7/sqrt(2)*(1,1); dot(w); dot(x); dot(y); do
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

a=7

Step-by-step explanation:

The image is rendered and attached below.

Triangle WXY is an Isosceles right triangle, since WX=XY.

First, we determine the length of WY using Pythagoras Theorem.

WY=\sqrt{4^2+4^2}\\WY=\sqrt{32}

Since triangle WXY is Isosceles, \angle XYW=45^\circ

\angle XYZ=\angle XYW+\angle WYZ\\135^\circ=45^\circ+\angle WYZ\\\angle WYZ=135^\circ-45^\circ=90^\circ

Therefore:

Triangle WYZ is a right triangle with WZ as the hypothenuse.

Applying Pythagoras Theorem

WZ^2=WY^2+YZ^2\\9^2=(\sqrt{32})^2+a^2\\a^2=81-32\\a^2=49\\a^2=7^2\\$Therefore: a=7
