Answer:
Points : ( 8, - 2π/3 ), ( - 8, π/3 ), ( - 8, - 5π/3 )
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first two cases, ( r, θ ) r would be > 0, where r is the directed distance from the pole, and theta is the directed angle from the positive x - axis.
So when r is positive, we can tell that this point is 8 units from the pole, so r is going to be 8 in either case,
( 8, 240° ) - because r is positive, theta would have to be an angle with which it's terminal side passes through this point. As you can see that would be 2 / 3rd of 90 degrees more than a 180 degree angle,or 60 + 180 = 240 degrees.
( 8, - 120° ) - now theta will be the negative side of 360 - 240, or in other words - 120
Now let's consider the second two cases, where r is < 0. Of course the point will still be 8 units from the pole. Again for r < 0 the point will lay on the ray pointing in the opposite direction of the terminal side of theta.
( - 8, 60° ) - theta will now be 2 / 3rd of 90 degrees, or 60 degrees, for - r. Respectively the remaining degrees will be negative, 360 - 60 = 300, - 300. Thus our second point for - r will be ( - 8, - 300° )
_________________________________
So we have the points ( 8, 240° ), ( 8, - 120° ), ( - 8, 60° ), and ( - 8, - 300° ). However we only want 3 cases, so we have points ( 8, - 120° ), ( - 8, 60° ), and ( - 8, - 300° ). Let's convert the degrees into radians,
Points : ( 8, - 2π/3 ), ( - 8, π/3 ), ( - 8, - 5π/3 )

Answers
Answer:
There is not sufficient sample evidence to support the claim that the population mean is not equal to 88.9.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following hypothesis below;
Let [tex]\mu[/tex] = population mean.
So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] = 88.9 {means that the population mean is equal to 88.9}
Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu\neq[/tex] 88.9 {means that the population mean is different from 88.9}
The test statistics that will be used here is One-sample t-test statistics because we don't know about population standard deviation;
T.S. = [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ~ [tex]t_n_-_1[/tex]
where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample mean = 81.3
s = sample standard deviation = 13.4
n = sample size = 7
So, the test statistics = [tex]\frac{81.3-88.9}{\frac{13.4}{\sqrt{7} } }[/tex] ~ [tex]t_6[/tex]
= -1.501
The value of t-test statistics is -1.501.
Also, the P-value of the test statistics is given by;
P-value = P([tex]t_6[/tex] < -1.501) = 0.094
Since the P-value of our test statistics is more than the level of significance as 0.094 > 0.01, so we have insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as the test statistics will not fall in the rejection region.
Therefore, we conclude that the population mean is equal to 88.9.

Which is an infinite arithmetic sequence? a{10, 30, 90, 270, …} b{100, 200, 300, 400} c{150, 300, 450, 600, …} d{1, 2, 4, 8}
Answers
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
An arithmetic sequence has a common difference d between consecutive terms.
Sequence a
30 - 10 = 20
90 - 30 = 60
270 - 90 = 180
This sequence is not arithmetic
Sequence b
200 - 100 = 100
300 - 200 = 100
400 - 300 = 100
This sequence is arithmetic but is finite, that is last term is 400
Sequence c
300 - 150 = 150
450 - 300 = 150
600 - 450 = 150
This sequence is arithmetic and infinite, indicated by ........ within set
Sequence d
2 - 1 = 1
4 - 2 = 2
8 - 4 = 4
This sequence is not arithmetic
Thus the infinite arithmetic sequence is sequence c
Ben and Cam are scuba diving. Ben is 15.8 meters below the
surface of the water. Cam is 4.2 meters above Ben. What is Cam's
position relative to the surface of the water?
Answers
=======================================================
Explanation:
Check out the diagram below.
Draw a vertical number line with 0 at the center. The positive values are above it, while the negative values are below it.
Between -15 and -16, closer to -16, plot the value -15.8 to indicate Ben's position. I have done so as the point B.
We move 4.2 units up to arrive at Cam's position
-15.8 + 4.2 = -11.6
So Cam is 11.6 meters below the surface of the water.

[tex] \sf{x - 2} \: and \: { {x}^{2} + x - 6}[/tex]
To find the H.C.F of the algebraic expressions, they are to be factorised and a common factor or the product of common factors is obtained as their H.C.F
Let's solve
First expression = x - 2
Second expression = x + x - 6
Here, we have to find the two numbers which subtracts to 1 and multiplies to 6
= x + ( 3 - 2 ) x + 6
Distribute x through the parentheses
= x + 3x - 2x + 6
Factor out x from the expression
= x ( x + 3 ) - 2x + 6
Factor out -2 from the expression
= x ( x + 3 ) - 2 ( x + 3 )
Factor out x+3 from the expression
= ( x + 3 ) ( x - 2 )
Here, x - 2 is common in both expression.
Thus, H.C.F = x - 2
Hope I helped!
Best regards!!!
Answer:
x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
by factorization method
1) x - 2
2) x^2 + x - 6
by splitting method
x^2 + 3x - 2x - 6
taking separate common from the first two terms and last two terms
x(x + 3) - 2(x + 3)
now writing x+3 once and the other term to get the right answer
(x + 3)(x - 2)
in both parts just see the similar term and write it as HCF
HCF= x - 2
and the second method by which you can get this answer is division method

The expression = [tex] \frac{40}{y - 16} [/tex]
Value of the expression = 4 (when y is 20)
Step-by-step explanation:
Quotient simply means the result you get when you divide two numbers. Thus, dividend (the numerator) ÷ divisor (the denominator) = quotient.
From the information given to us here,
the dividend = 40
the divisor = y - 16
The quotient = [tex] \frac{40}{y - 16} [/tex]
There, the expression would be [tex] \frac{40}{y - 16} [/tex]
Find the value of the expression when y = 20.
Plug in 20 for y in the expression and evaluate.
[tex] \frac{40}{y - 16} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{40}{20 - 16} [/tex]
[tex] = \frac{40}{4} = 10 [/tex]
The value of the expression, when y is 20, is 4.

The frequency distribution does not appear to be normal.
Step-by-step explanation:
The data provided is as follows:
S = {0.38 , 0 , 0.22 , 0.06 , 0 , 0 , 0.21 , 0 , 0.53 , 0.18 , 0 , 0 , 0.02 , 0 , 0 , 0.24 , 0 , 0 , 0.01 , 0 , 0 , 1.28 , 0.24 , 0 , 0.19 , 0.53 , 0 , 0, 0.24 , 0}

The frequency distribution table is as follows:
Class Interval Count
0.00 - 0.19 21
0.20 - 0.39 6
0.40 - 0.59 2
0.60 - 0.79 0
0.80 - 0.99 0
1.00 - 1 . 19 0

From a group of 11 people, 4 are randomly selected. What is the probability the 4 oldest people in the group were selected
Answers
The probability that the 4 oldest people in the group were selected is based on combinatorics is 0.00303 or 0.303%.
Given that:
Find how many ways the 4 oldest people can be selected from the group.
Since the 4 oldest people are already determined, there is only 1 way to select them.
n = 11 (total number of people in the group) and k = 4 (number of people to be selected).To calculate the probability, to determine the total number of ways to select 4 people from the group of 11. This can be found using the combination formula:
Number of ways to choose k items from n items :
C(n,k) = n! / (k!(n-k)!)
Calculate the total number of ways to select 4 people from the group:
Plugging n and k value from given data:
C(11,4 )= 11! / (4!(11-4)!)
On simplifications gives:
C(11, 4) = 330.
Calculate the probability:
Probability = Number of ways 4 oldest people selected / Total number of ways to select 4 people
Plugging the given data:
Probability = 1 / 330
Probability ≈ 0.00303 or 0.303%.
Therefore, the probability that the 4 oldest people in the group were selected is based on combinatorics is 0.00303 or 0.303%.

So 9 croissants are already selected and 13 remaining croissants are still needed to be selected as 22-9 = 13, without selecting more than three broccoli croissants.
n = 5
r = 13
C(n + r - 1, r)
= C(5 + 13 - 1, 13)
= C(17,13)
[tex]=\frac{17! }{13!(17-13)!}[/tex]
= 355687428096000 / 6227020800 ( 24 )
= 355687428096000 / 149448499200
= 2380
C(17,13) = 2380
C(n + r - 1, r)
= C(5 + 12 - 1, 12)
= C(16,12)
[tex]=\frac{16! }{12!(16-12)!}[/tex]

= 1365
C(15,11) = 1365
C(n + r - 1, r)

Complete Question
Pennsylvania Refining Company is studying the relationship between the pump price of gasoline and the number of gallons sold. For a sample of 14 stations last Tuesday, the correlation was 0.65.At the 0.01 significance level Can the company conclude that the correlation is positive
Answer:
Yes the company conclude that the correlation is positive
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sample size is n = 14
The correlation is r = 0.65
The null hypothesis is [tex]H_o : r < 0[/tex]
The alternative hypothesis is [tex]H_1 : r > 0[/tex]
Generally the standard deviation is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]Sr = \sqrt{1- r}[/tex]
[tex]Sr = \sqrt{1- 0.65}[/tex]
[tex]Sr = 0.616[/tex]
The degree of freedom for the one-tail test is
[tex]df = n- 2[/tex]
[tex]df = 14- 2[/tex]
[tex]df = 12[/tex]
The standard error is evaluated as
[tex]SE = \frac{0.616}{ \sqrt{12} }[/tex]
[tex]SE =0.1779[/tex]
The test statistics is evaluated as
[tex]t = \frac{r }{SE}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{0.65 }{0.1779}[/tex]
[tex]t = 3.654[/tex]
The p-value of of t is obtained from the z table, the value is
[tex]p-value = P(t < 3.654) = 0.00012909[/tex]
Given that [tex]p-value < \alpha[/tex] then we reject the null hypothesis
Hence the company can conclude that the correlation is positive
