f(x)=3x2+10x-25 g(x)=9x2-25 Find (f/g)(x).

Answers

Answer:

[tex](f/g)(x) = \frac{x + 5}{3x + 5} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 3x² + 10x - 25

g(x) = 9x² - 25

To find (f/g)(x) divide f(x) by g(x)

That's

[tex](f/g)(x) = \frac{3 {x}^{2} + 10x - 25 }{9 {x}^{2} - 25 } [/tex]

Factorize both the numerator and the denominator

For the numerator

3x² + 10x - 25

3x² + 15x - 5x - 25

3x ( x + 5) - 5( x + 5)

(3x - 5 ) ( x + 5)

For the denominator

9x² - 25

(3x)² - 5²

Using the formula

a² - b² = ( a + b)(a - b)

(3x)² - 5² = (3x + 5)(3x - 5)

So we have

[tex](f/g)(x) = \frac{(3x - 5)(x + 5)}{(3x + 5)(3x - 5)} [/tex]

Simplify

We have the final answer as

[tex](f/g)(x) = \frac{x + 5}{3x + 5} [/tex]

An economist is interested in studying the income of consumers in a particular region. The population standard deviation is known to be $1,000. A random sample of 50 individuals resulted in an average income of $15,000. What is the width of the 90% confidence interval

Answers

Answer:

The width is  [tex]w = 282.8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The sample size is n =  50

  The  population standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = \$ 1000[/tex]

   The sample size is  [tex]\= x = \$ 15,000[/tex]

Given that the confidence level is  90%  then the level of significance can be mathematically represented as

             [tex]\alpha = 100 - 90[/tex]  

             [tex]\alpha = 10 \%[/tex]  

              [tex]\alpha = 0.10[/tex]

Next we obtain the critical value of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the  normal distribution table, the value is  

             [tex]Z_{\frac{0.10 }{2} } = 1.645[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

               [tex]E = Z_{\frac{0.10}{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

                 [tex]E = 1.645 * \frac{1000 }{\sqrt{50 }}[/tex]

=>                [tex]E = 141.42[/tex]

  The width of the 90%  confidence level is mathematically represented as

                      [tex]w = 2 * E[/tex]

substituting values

                       [tex]w = 2 * 141.42[/tex]

                       [tex]w = 282.8[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

(x=6) is less than 18 which would give you the cost of the current plan

Step-by-step explanation:

If you take six, first you must multiply 4.50 by 6, ($27) then add it, to $94, giving you $121. Now we have to find which phone will give us the same cost, for this I choose 18. if you do 18 x 4.50, you get $81, and if you add this to 94, it gives you 175.

Explain in context the conclusion of the test if H0 is rejected.

Answers

Answer:

For the null hypothesis to be rejected , then the conclusion of the test is that the absolute values of the z-statistic and/or the t-test statistic is greater than the critical value

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to explain the conclusion of the test given that the null hypothesis is rejected.

Mathematically, the null hypothesis is as expressed as below;

H0: μ = 1,200

The alternative hypothesis H1 would be;

H1: μ > 1,200

Now, before we can reject or accept the null hypothesis, we will need a sample size and thus calculate the test statistics and the z statistics

For us to reject the null hypothesis, one of two things, or two things must have occurred.

The absolute value of the z statistic |z| or the test statistic |t| must be greater than the critical value.

If this happens, then we can make a rejection of the null hypothesis

Type an integer or a​ fraction.) ​(B) Find the probability that at least 1 ball was​ red, given that the first ball was not replaced before the second draw.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The box contains 5 red and 4 white balls.

A) The probability that at least 1 ball was​ red = P(both are red) + P(first is red and second is white) + P(first is white second is red)

Given that the first ball was (Upper A )Replaced before the second draw:

P(both are red) = P(red) × P(red) = 5/9 × 5/9 = 25/81

P(first is red and second is white) = P(red) × P(white) = 5/9 × 4/9 = 20/81

P(first is white and second is red) = P(white) × P(red) = 4/9 × 5/9 = 20/81

The probability that at least 1 ball was​ red = 25/81 + 20/81 + 20/81 = 65/81

B) The probability that at least 1 ball was​ red = P(both are red) + P(first is red and second is white) + P(first is white second is red)

Given that the first ball was not Replaced before the second draw:

P(both are red) = P(red) × P(red) = 5/9 × 4/8 = 20/72 (since it was not replaced after the first draw the number of red ball remaining would be 4 and the total ball remaining would be 8)

P(first is red second is white) = P(red) × P(white) = 5/9 × 4/8 = 20/72

P(first is white and second is red) = P(white) × P(red) = 4/9 × 5/8 = 20/72

The probability that at least 1 ball was​ red = 20/72 + 20/72 + 20/72 = 60/72

Now, it look like there is some information missing in the answer. The whole problem should look like this:

Alicia Keys's new album As I Am is climbing the charts, and the manager of Tip Top Tunes expects to sell a lot of copies. Because she has limited shelf space, she can't put out all her copies of the CD at once. On Monday morning, she stocked the display with 40 copies. By the end of the day, some of the copies had been sold. On Tuesday morning, she counted the number of copies left and then added that many more to the shelf. In other words, she doubled the number that was left in the display. At the end of the day, she discovered that she had sold the exact same number of copies as had been sold on Monday. On Wednesday morning, the manager decided to triple the number of copies that had been left in the case after Tuesday. Amazingly, she sold the same number of copies on Wednesday as she had on each of the first two days! But this time, at the end of the day the display case was empty. How many copies of the As I Am CD did she sell each day?

Answer:

She sold 24 copies of the cd each day.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must first set our variable up. In this case, since we need to know what the number of sold cd's per day is, that will just be our variable:

x= Number of copies sold.

So we can start setting our equation up. So we take the first part of the problem:

"On Monday morning, she stocked the display with 40 copies. By the end of the day, some of the copies had been sold."

This can be translated as:

40-x

where this expression represents the number of copies left on the shelf by the end of monday.

"On Tuesday morning, she counted the number of copies left and then added that many more to the shelf."

so we represent it like this:

(40-x)+(40-x)

"In other words, she doubled the number that was left in the display."

so the previous expression can be simplified like this:

2(40-x)

"At the end of the day, she discovered that she had sold the exact same number of copies as had been sold on Monday."

so the expression now turns to:

2(40-x)-x   this is the number of copies left by the end of tuesday.

"On Wednesday morning, the manager decided to triple the number of copies that had been left in the case after Tuesday."

this translates to:

3[2(40-x)-x]

This is the number of copies on the shelf by the begining of Wednesday.

"Amazingly, she sold the same number of copies on Wednesday as she had on each of the first two days! But this time, at the end of the day the display case was empty."

this piece of information lets us finish writting our equation:

3[2(40-x)-x] -x = 0

since there were no copies left on the shelf, then the equation is equal to zero.

So now we proceed and solve the equation for x:

3[2(40-x)-x] -x = 0

We simplify it from the inside to the outside.

3[80-2x-x]-x=0

3[80-3x]-x = 0

we now distribute the 3 so we get:

240-9x-x=0

we combine like terms so we get:

240-10x=0

we move the 240 to the other side of the equation so we get:

-10x=-240

and divide both sides into -10 so we get:

x=24

so she sold 24 copies each day.

Find secα, if sinα=−2/3 and 3π/2 <α<2π . Also the α=alpha symbol

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sinα=−2/3, before we can get secα, we need to get the value of α first from  sinα=−2/3.

[tex]sin \alpha = -2/3[/tex]

Taking the arcsin of both sides

[tex]sin^{-1}(sin\alpha) = sin^{-1} -2/3\\ \\\alpha = sin^{-1} -2/3\\ \\\alpha = -41.8^0[/tex]

Since sin is negative in the 3rd and 4th quadrant. In the 3rd quadrant;

α = 180°+41.8°

α = 221.8° which is between the range 270°<α<360°

secα = sec 221.8°

secα = 1/cos 221.8

secα = 1.34

As S approaches infinity, S becomes much larger than c.  So S + c is approximately equal to just S.

lim(S→∞) I(S)

Given a sample of 35, what is the sample standard deviation of a pair of jeans if the 90% confidence interval is [37.14, 42.86]

Answers

Answer:

10.295

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the value for calculating the confidence interval as given;

CI = xbar + Z*σ/√n

xbar  is the mean = 37.14+42.86/2

xbar= 80/2

xbar = 40

Z is the z-score at the 90% confidence = 1.645

σ is the standard deviation

n is the sample size = 35

Given the confidence interval CI as [37.14, 42.86]

Using  the maximum value of the confidence interval to get the value of the standard deviation, we will have;

42.86 =  xbar + Z*σ/√n

42.86 = 40 + 1.645* σ/√35

42.86-40 = 1.645*σ/√35

2.86 = 1.645*σ/√35

2.86/1.645 = σ/√35

1.739 = σ/√35

1.739 = σ/5.92

σ= 1.739*5.92

σ = 10.295

Hence, the sample standard deviation of a pair of jeans is 10.295

Answer:

The null hypothesis [tex]\mathtt{H_0 : \mu = 26500}[/tex]

The alternative hypothesis [tex]\mathtt{H_1 : \mu \neq 26500}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The summary of the given statistics is:

Population Mean = 26,500

Sample Mean = 30,150

Standard deviation = 10560

sample size = 24

The objective is to state the null hypothesis and the alternate hypothesis.

An hypothesis is a claim with  insufficient information which tends to be challenged into  further testing and experimentation in order to determine if such claim is significant or not.

The null hypothesis is a default hypothesis where there is no statistical significance between the two variables in the hypothesis.

The alternative hypothesis is the research hypothesis that the  researcher is trying to prove.

The null hypothesis [tex]\mathtt{H_0 : \mu = 26500}[/tex]

The alternative hypothesis [tex]\mathtt{H_1 : \mu \neq 26500}[/tex]

The test statistic can be  computed as follows:

[tex]z = \dfrac{\overline X - \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \dfrac{30150 - 26500}{\dfrac{10560}{\sqrt{24}}}[/tex]

We have the sum of 2n  where n runs from 1 to 4

n=1  2(1) = 2

n=2  2(2) = 4

n=3  2(3) = 6

n=4  2(4) = 8

The sum is add

2+4+6+8

a family spent $93 at a carnival.
*they spent $18 on tickets and $30 on food. they spent the rest of the money on games.

which equation can be used to to find "g", the amount of money used on games.

Answers

Answer: 93-(18+30)=g

93-48=g

45=g

Step-by-step explanation: yup

The answer is 93-18-30-g=0 or 18+30+g=93

the definition of parallel lines requires the undefined terms line and plane by the definition of perpendicular lines requires the undefined terms of line and point. what charcteristics of these geometric figures create the different requirements? ​

Answers

Answer:

Parallel lines never intersect, but they must be in the same plane. The definition does not require the undefined term point, but it does require plane. Because they intersect, perpendicular lines must be coplanar; consequently, plane is not required in the definition.

Eliminate the parameter for the following set of parametric equations: x= t^2 + 2 y= 4t^2

Answers

Answer:

Solution : y = 4x - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we want to do is isolate t², rather than t. Why? As you can see when we substitute t² into the second equation, it will be easier than substituting t, as t is present in the form t². So, let's isolate t² in the first equation --- ( 1 )

x = t² + 2,

t² = x - 2

Now let's substitute this value of t² in the second equation --- ( 2 )

y = 4t²,

y = 4(x - 2),

y = 4x - 8 ~ And hence our solution is option c.

What is the equation of the parabola that has its vertex at (8,-1) and a y-intercept of (0,-17)?

Answers

y = a(x  + 1.5)^2 - 12.5

y intercept is (0,-8) so:-

-8 = a(0+1.5)^2 - 12.5

-8 = 2.25a - 12.5

a =  4.5/ 2.25 = 2

so we have  

y  = 2 ( x +1.5)^2 - 12.5

solving for x  when y = 0:-

(x + 1.5)^2 = 12.5/2 = 6.25

taking sqrt's  x + 1.5  = +/- 2.5

x =  -4,   1

so the x intercepts are (-4,0) and (1,0)

Answer:

y = –1∕4(x – 8)^2 – 1

Step-by-step explanation:

I took the exam and  got  it  right.
