-1,-2,-3,-4...

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  f(1) = -1

  f(n) = f(n-1) -1

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term is -1. Each term is 1 less than the previous. These equations say that.

  f(1) = -1

  f(n) = f(n-1) -1

The difference between the most hours of sleep and the least of these students was 2.5 hours. True or false?​

Answers

The correct anwer is False

Explanation

According to the graph, it can be seen that a student has four hours of sleep as the minimum number of hours of sleep; two students have six hours of sleep, four students have six and a half hours of sleep, four have seven hours of sleep, three have seven and a half hours of sleep, five have eight hours of sleep, and one has eight and a half hours of sleep as maximum hours of sleep. Therefore, it can be affirmed that the statement that the difference between the maximum amount and the minimum number of hours is two and a half hours is false because between four hours and eight and a half hours there are four and a half hours of difference. So, the correct answer is False.

B. y = 6x + 1
C. y = -6x - 1
D. y = 6x - 1

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

I’m rusty with my math, so I’m not 100% sure this is correct. My best attempt.

(1,-5) & (3,-17)

1=1x, -5=1y, 3=2x, -17=2y

Formula is y2-y1/x2-x1

-17 - -5 = -12

3 - 1 =2

So -12/2 = -6

Formula for the line is

y-y1 = m (x-x1)

In this equation m=-6

Y - -5 = -6 ( x - 1 )

This study is a(n): A) matched pairs design. B) randomized block design. C) nonrandomized experiment. D) observational study. E) completely randomized experiment.

Answer:

D. Observational Study

Explanation:

An observational  study is one in which all the participants are subjected to a common treatment and then compared to people who did not receive the same treatment. This is the case with the students who where subjected to the same treatment; an additional rehearsal session. They are then observed by the professor and compared to those who did not participate in the experiment.  

This is also an example of a cohort observational study. A cohort observational study is one in which all the participants have a common uniting factor. They are made to undergo a treatment and then compared to those who did not receive the treatment. This type of study  is subject to bias because a positive or negative result might be because of other factors not related to the study.

what is the equation of the line shown in this graph

Answers

Notice that the line on this graph is a flat line or a horizontal line.

When you are asked to write the equation of a horizontal line,

your equation will always be in the form of y = a number.

When y = a number, the graph is a horizontal line or a

flat line whose y-intercept is equal to that number.

Since the y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis and our line crosses it at the point (0, -1), the equation of this line is y = -1.

Consider the estimated equation from Example 4.3, which can be used to study the effects of skipping class on college GPA: 2 colGPA 1.39 .412 hsGPA .015 ACT .083 skipped (.33) (.094) (.011) (.026) n 141, R2 .234. (i) Using the standard normal approximation, find the 95% confidence interval for hsGPA. (ii) Can you reject the hypothesis H0: hsGPA .4 against the two-sided alternative at the 5% level

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The confidence interval is calculated as the following

[tex]CI = ( \bar x-1.96 \sigma ,\bar x=1.96 \sigmam)[/tex]

[tex]= (0.412-1.96 \times 0.094, 0.412 = 1.96 \times 0.094)\\\\= (0.22776, 0.59624)[/tex]

Hence, the confidence interval is [tex]0.22776 \leq \beta_G_P_A \leq 0.59624)[/tex]

11) Under two sid t-tailed test, the null hypothesis

[tex]H_0; \beta_{GPA}=0.4[/tex]

Against the alternative hypothesis

[tex]H_1 ; \beta _{GPA} \neq 0.4[/tex]

Under null hypothesis

[tex]t = \frac{\hat \beta _1 - \beta _1}{Se( \beta _1)} \\\\ =\frac{0.412-0.4}{0.094} \\\\=0.12766[/tex]

The degree of freedom is n - 1 = 140

From the t - table at 5% level of significance under two - tail is 1.96

Since , calculated value is lowe than the tabulated value, we do not reject the null hypothesis.

Determines the length of the chord intercepted by the straight line of equation y = -4x + 8 on the parabola of equation y = -3x^2 + 5x + 2.

Answers

Answer:

Let's work out the intercepted points:

-4x + 8 = -3x^2 + 5x + 2

<=>

3x^2 - 9x + 6 = 0

<=>

x^2 - 3x + 2 = 0

<=>

(x - 1)(x - 2) = 0

<=>  

x = 1 => y = -4 x 1 + 8 = 4 => A(1, 4)

and

x = 2=> y = -4 x 2 + 8 = 0 =>B(2, 0)

Then, length of chord AB is calculated by:

L = sqrt [(2 - 1)^2 + (0 - 4)^2)] = ~4.123

Hector invests $20,000 at age 21. He hopes the investment will be worth $200,000 when he turns 40. If the interest compounds continuously, approximately what rate of growth will he need to achieve his goal? Round to the nearest tenth of a percent.

Answers

Answer:

12.12%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the formula is given by:

A = p * e ^ (r * t)

From here, we know that A = 200000; p = 20000 and the time we can calculate 40 - 21 = 19

if we replace we have:

200000 = 20000 * e ^ (19 * r)

we must calculate r:

e ^ (19 * r) = 200000/20000

e ^ (19 * r) = 10

19 * r = ln 10

r = ln 10/19

r = 0.1212

In other words, the rate of growth is 12.12%

Problem 1.) A researcher claims that 96% of college graduates say their college degree has

Answers

Answer:

 |Z| = |-52.5|  = 52.5 > 1.96 at 0.05 level of significance

 Null  hypothesis is rejected

We rejected the researcher's claim

A researcher do not claims that 96% of college graduates say their college degree has been  a good investment.

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Given data A researcher claims that 96% of college graduates say their college degree has  been a good investment.

Population proportion 'P' = 0.96

                                       Q = 1-P = 1- 0.96 = 0.04

In a random sample of 2000 graduates, 1500 say their college degree has

been a good investment.

Sample proportion

                       [tex]p^{-} = \frac{x}{n} = \frac{1500}{2000} = 0.75[/tex]

Level of significance  ∝ = 0.05

[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = Z_{\frac{0.05}{2} } = Z_{0.025} = 1.96[/tex]

Test statistic

                        [tex]Z = \frac{p^{-} - P }{\sqrt{\frac{PQ}{n} } }[/tex]

                        [tex]Z = \frac{0.75 - 0.96 }{\sqrt{\frac{0.96 X 0.04}{2000} } }[/tex]

                        [tex]Z = \frac{-0.21}{0.00435} = -52.5[/tex]

    |Z| = |-52.5|  = 52.5 > 1.96 at 0.05 level of significance

  Null  hypothesis is rejected

  We rejected the researcher's claim

Conclusion:-

A researcher do not claims that 96% of college graduates say their college degree has been  a good investment.

There is 500 mg of potassium in 1 cup (240 ml) of orange juice. Your renal patient must watch his potassium intake not to exceed 2 mg per kg of body weight per day from Orange juice alone. How much juice (in ml) can this patient have per day if the patient weighs 135 lb?

Answers

Answer:

58.79 mL of juice

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this, let's gather the data first:

In 1 cup of orange juice we have 500 mg of potassium. A patient weights 135 lb, and he needs to take care of it's potassium intake and not exceed 2 mg of K / kg per day.

So obviously he cannot drink a whole cup of orange juice. It has to be less. In order to know this, we need to know first the weight in kg. 1 lb equals 0.4536 kg so in 135 lb:

W = 135 lb * 0.4536 kg/lb = 61.24 kg

Now, we need to know with this weight, how much potassium it can takes:

Intake = 61.24 kg * 2 mg/kg = 122.48 mg of K

So, the maximum amount of potassium per day is 122.48 mg. This means that the quantity of orange juice this person can take is:

Juice = 122.48 mg * 240 mL / 500 mg

Juice = 58.79 mL of juice or simply 59 mL
