A researcher wants to know if calcium is an effective treatment for lowering blood pressure. He assigns one randomly chosen group of volunteers to take calcium supplements; the other group will get placebo. At the end of the treatment period, he measures the difference in blood pressure. The 50 members of the calcium group had blood pressure lowered by an average of 25 points with a standard deviation of 10 points.

Two sample t procedure

Step-by-step explanation:

The two sample t test is used when want to test for equality between two population means. It tests whether the means of the two groups are equal or not equal.

We use this to analyse this information in this question because we do not have data available for the population standard deviation. Also we are to test for the significant difference between the two different groups of participants

Answer:

There is a   min     value of   376     located at (x,y) =   (9,7)  

============================================================

Explanation:

Solve the second equation for y

x+y = 16

y = 16-x

Then plug it into the first equation

f(x,y) = 3x^2+4y^2 - xy

g(x) = 3x^2+4(16-x)^2 - x(16-x)

g(x) = 3x^2+4(256 - 32x + x^2) - 16x + x^2

g(x) = 3x^2+1024 - 128x + 4x^2 - 16x + x^2

g(x) = 8x^2-144x+1024

The positive leading coefficient 8 tells us we have a parabola that opens upward, and produces a minimum value (aka lowest point) at the vertex.

Let's compute the derivative and set it equal to zero to solve for x.

g(x) = 8x^2-144x+1024

g ' (x) = 16x-144

16x-144 = 0

16x = 144

x = 144/16

x = 9

The min value occurs when x = 9. Let's find its paired y value.

y = 16-x

y = 16-9

y = 7

The min value occurs at (x,y) = (9,7)

Lastly, let's find the actual min value of f(x,y).

f(x,y) = 3x^2+4y^2 - xy

f(9,7) = 3(9)^2+4(7)^2 - 9*7

f(9,7) = 376

The smallest f(x,y) value is 376.

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle x \approx 30.8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that the figure is a right triangle, and that we are given the length of the side adjacent to x and the hypotenuse of the triangle.

Therefore, we can use the cosine ratio. Recall that:

[tex]\displaystyle \cos \theta = \frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{hypotenuse}}[/tex]

The adjacent side is 8.5 and the hypotenuse is 9.9. Therefore:

[tex]\displaystyle \cos x = \frac{8.5}{9.9}[/tex]

We can take the inverse cosine of both sides:

[tex]\displaystyle x = \cos^{-1} \frac{8.5}{9.9}[/tex]

Use a calculator. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle x \approx 30.8[/tex]

Reflection across x-axis has the following rules

First check the characteristic solution. The characteristic equation to this DE is

r ² - r = r (r - 1) = 0

with roots r = 0 and r = 1, so the characteristic solution is

y (char.) = C₁ exp(0x) + C₂ exp(1x)

y (char.) = C₁ + C₂ exp(x)

For the particular solution, we try the ansatz

y (part.) = (ax + b) exp(x)

but exp(x) is already accounted for in the second term of y (char.), so we multiply each term here by x :

y (part.) = (ax ² + bx) exp(x)

Differentiate this twice and substitute the derivatives into the DE.

y' (part.) = (2ax + b) exp(x) + (ax ² + bx) exp(x)

… = (ax ² + (2a + b)x + b) exp(x)

y'' (part.) = (2ax + 2a + b) exp(x) + (ax ² + (2a + b)x + b) exp(x)

… = (ax ² + (4a + b)x + 2a + 2b) exp(x)

(ax ² + (4a + b)x + 2a + 2b) exp(x) - (ax ² + (2a + b)x + b) exp(x)

= x exp(x)

The factor of exp(x) on both sides is never zero, so we can cancel them:

(ax ² + (4a + b)x + 2a + 2b) - (ax ² + (2a + b)x + b) = x

Collect all the terms on the left side to reduce it to

2ax + 2a + b = x

Matching coefficients gives the system

2a = 1

2a + b = 0

and solving this yields

a = 1/2, b = -1

Then the general solution to this DE is

y(x) = C₁ + C₂ exp(x) + (1/2 x ² - x) exp(x)

For the given initial conditions, we have

y (0) = C₁ + C₂ = 6

y' (0) = C₂ - 1 = 5

and solving for the constants here gives

C₁ = 0, C₂ = 6

so that the particular solution to the IVP is

y(x) = 6 exp(x) + (1/2 x ² - x) exp(x)

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Which correlation coefficient indicates the data set with the strongest linear correlation?

0.66

The correlation coefficient indicates the data set with the strongest linear correlation is -0.83

What is correlation coefficient?

"It measures the strength of the relationship between two relative variables."

What is linear correlation?

"When the rate of change is constant between two variables then it is said to be linear correlation."

For given example,

We have been given correlation coefficients.

We need to find the correlation coefficient that indicates the data set with the strongest linear correlation.

We know, the correlation coefficient lies between -1 to 1.

So, the strongest linear correlation is indicated by a correlation coefficient of -1 or 1.

From given correlation coefficients,

-0.83 is close to -1.

Therefore, the correlation coefficient indicates the data set with the strongest linear correlation is -0.83

After the release of radioactive material into the atmosphere from a nuclear power plant at Chernobyl (Ukraine) in 1986, the hay in Austria was contaminated by iodine 131 (half-life 8 days). If it is safe to feed the hay to cows when 10% of the iodine 131 remains, how long did the farmers need to wait to use this hay?

Answers

Given the data provided, it follows that the farmers must wait for 26 days before feeding the hay to cows.

What is half life?

The term half life is defined as the time taken for half of the original amount of the radioactive sample to remain.

Now we know that;

half life = 8 days

Original amount = No

Amount left after t days = 0.1No

time taken = t days

Hence;

0.693/8 = 2.303/t log (No/0.1No)

0.087 = 2.303/t

t = 2.303/0.087

A right triangle is defined as a triangle in which one angle is a right angle or two sides are perpendicular.

According to the given figure,

Here is a right triangle

Let, The hypotenuse = 15

perpendicular = z and base = 15 = a + b

⇒ sin60 = perpendicular/hypotenuse = z/15

⇒ z = 15sin60 = (15√3)/2

⇒ cos30 = base/hypotenuse = b/z

⇒ b = zcos30 = (15√3)/2 * √3/2 = 45/4

⇒ a + b = 15

Substitute the value of b in the above equation,

⇒ a = 15-b = 15-45/4 = 15/4

Hence, the value of a is 15/4.
