A sample of 38 babies in the zinc group had a mean birth weight of 3328 grams. A sample of 31 babies in the placebo group had a mean birth weight of 3406 grams. Assume that the population standard deviation for the zinc group is 640 grams, while the population standard deviation for the placebo group is 851851 grams. Determine the 99% confidence interval for the true difference between the mean birth weights for "zinc" babies versus "placebo" babies.

Required:
Find the point estimate for the true difference between the population means.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

-78

Step-by-step explanation:

Zinc group :

Mean, x1 = 3328

σ1 = 640

Sample size, n1 = 28

Placebo group :

Mean, x2 = 3406

σ2 = 851

Sample size, n2 = 31

The point estimate for the true difference between the population means is obtained as :

Mean difference between population :

x1 - x2 = 3328 - 3406 = - 78

A one lane highway runs through a tunnel in the shape of one half a sine curve cycle

Answers

The sine curve equation, y = 10·sin(x·π/24), that models the entrance of the

tunnel with a cross section that is the shape of half of a sine curve and the

height of the tunnel at the edge of the road, (approximately 7.07 ft.) are

found by applying the following steps

(a) The equation for the sine curve is y = 10·sin(x·π/24)

(b) The height of the tunnel at the edge of the road is approximately 7.07 feet

The reason for the above answers are presented as follows;

(a) From a similar question posted online, the missing part of the question

is, what is the height of the tunnel at the edge of the road

The known parameters;

The shape of the tunnel = One-half sine curve cycle

The height of the road at its highest point = 10 ft.

The opening of the tunnel at road level = 24 ft.

The unknown parameter;

The equation of the sine curve that fits the opening

Method;

Model the sine curve equation of the tunnel using the general equation of a sine curve;

The general equation of a sine curve is y = A·sin(B·(x - C) + D

Where;

y = The height at point x

A = The amplitude = The distance from the centerline of the sine wave to the top of a crest

Therefore;

The amplitude, A = The height of half the sine wave = The height of the tunnel = 10 ft.

D = 0, C = 0 (The origin, (0, 0) is on the left end, which is the central line)

The period is the distance between successive points where the curve passes through the center line while rising to a crest

Therefore

The period, T = 2·π/B = 2 × Opening at the road level = 2 × 24 ft. = 48 ft.

T = 48 ft.

We get;

48 = 2·π/B

B = 2·π/48 = π/24

By plugging in the values for A, B, C, and D, we get;

y = 10·sin((π/24)·(x - 0) + 0 = 10·sin(x·π/24)

The equation of the sine curve that fits the opening is y = 10·sin(x·π/24)

(b) The height of the tunnel at the edge of the road is given by substituting

the value of x at the edge of the road into the equation for the sine curve

as  follows;

The width of the shoulders = 6 feet

∴ At the edge of the road, x = 0 + 6ft = 6 ft., and 6 ft. + 12 ft. = 18 ft.

Therefore, we get;

y = 10 × sin(6·π/24) = 10 × sin(π/4) = 5×√2

y = 10 × sin(18·π/24) = 10 × sin(3·π/4) = 5×√2

The height of the, y, tunnel at the edge of the road where, x = 6, and 18 is y = 5·√2 feet ≈ 7.07 ft.

How much bigger is the Sum of first 50 even numbers than the sum of first 50 odd numbers?

Answers

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum Even numbers

n = 50

d = 2

a1 = 2

The last number is

an = a1 + (n-1)d

an = 2 + (50 - 1)*2

an = 2 + 49 * 2

an = 2 + 98

an = 100

Sum of the even numbers

Sum = (a1 + a50)*n/ 2

Sum = (2 + 100)*50/2

sum = 102 * 25

sum = 2550

Sum of the first 50 odd numbers

a1 = 1

n = 50

d = 2

l = ?

Find l

l = a1 + (n - 1)*2

l = 1 + 49*2

l = 99

Sum

Sum = (1 + 99)*50/2

Sum = 2500

The difference and answer is 2550 - 2500  = 50

Hi someone already answered thx

Please help I’m really stuck!!

Answers

Step 1: Solve for one variable

---I will be using the first equation and solving for a.

a + c = 405

a = 405 - c

Step 2: Substitute into the other equation

---Now that we have a value for a, we can substitute that value into the second equation. Then, we can solve for c.

12a + 5c = 3950

12(405 - c) + 5c = 3950

4860 - 12c + 5c = 3950

-12c + 5c = -910

-7c = -910

c = 130

Step 3: Plug back into the first equation

---We now know one variable, which means we can plug back into our first equation and solve for the other.

a = 405 - c

a = 405 - 130

a = 275

2. How does the equation for the ellipse compare to the equation for a hyperbola? How can you determine the difference?


3. What is the difference between a vertex, a focus, and a directrix?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Explanation:

1.

A cone is a 3-dimensional object created by revolving a line about an axis that intersects that line. This figure is a "double-napped" cone. The point where the revolved line and the axis meet is the a.pex, or vertex, of the cone. Typically, we're concerned with a finite portion of the cone, from the vertex to a base that is a circle in a plane perpendicular to the axis.

A "conic" is a 2-dimensional figure that results from the intersection of a plane and a cone. There are four general categories, named according to the angle the plane makes with the axis and/or the side of the cone. These are illustrated in the attachment.

a circle - the plane of intersection is perpendicular to the axisan ellipse - the plane of intersection is at an angle between 90° and the angle of the side relative to the axis. Both an ellipse and a circle are closed figures.a parabola - the plane of intersection is at the same angle as the side of the cone. A parabola is a one-sided open figure.a hyperbola - The plane of intersection is at an angle between that of the side of the cone and the axis of the cone. The plane will intersect both parts of a double-napped cone producing a double-sided open figure.

Producing these at home can be an interesting project. A circle can be made using a compass.

An ellipse can be drawn using a pair of pins and a loop of string. The pins would be placed at the foci of the ellipse, and the string would constrain the drawing instrument (pen or pencil) to have a constant total distance to the two foci.

A parabola can be drawn on graph paper using coordinates derived from an equation for it. It can also be drawn using a compass and a set square by plotting points that are equidistant from the focus and a line that is called the directrix. If you have a physical cone-shaped object, you can cut it at an angle that will produce a parabola.

A hyperbola can be drawn on graph paper from an equation. It can also be drawn using a compass by plotting points that have a constant difference in their distance to the two foci, or by plotting points whose ratio of distance to focus and directrix is a constant. A physical cone-shaped object can be cut to produce a hyperbola.

__

2.

The general form equation for a conic is ...

  Ax² +Bxy +Cy² +Dx +Ey +F = 0

Usually, we're concerned with conics that have axes parallel to the coordinate axes, so B=0. The equation of an ellipse has A and C with the same sign. The equation of a hyperbola has A and C with opposite signs,

In standard form, the equations for figures centered at the origin are ...

ellipse: x²/a +y²/b = 1hyperbola: x²/a -y²/b = 1 (opens horizontally)hyperbola: y²/a -x²/b = 1 (opens vertically)

__

3.

The vertex of a conic is an extreme point on the (major) axis of the conic. The focus is a point used in the definition of the conic. The focus is "inside" the curve, on the axis of symmetry. The directrix is a line used in the definition of the conic. The directrix is "outside" the curve, perpendicular to the axis. The second attachment shows these for a parabola.

let a function F:A➡️B be defined by f(x)=x+1÷2x-1 with A={-1,0,1,2,3,4} and B= {-1,0,4/5,5/7,1,2,3,}.Find the range of f. plzzzz help​

Answers

Answer:

Range: {-1, 0, 5/7, 4/5, 1, 2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

f(x) = (x + 1)/(2x - 1)

And:

f: A ⇒ B

where:

A={-1,0,1,2,3,4}

B= {-1,0,4/5,5/7,1,2,3,}

We want to find the range of f(x).

The range of f(x) will be the set of the outputs of f(x) (and because f goes from A to B, we will only take the outputs that belong to B).

Then we only need to evaluate all the values of A in f(x), and see if the output belongs to B.

we have:

f(x) = (x + 1)/(2x - 1)

f(-1) = (-1 + 1)/(2*-1 - 1) = 0   (this does belong to B)

f(0) = (0 + 1)/(2*0 - 1) = -1  (this does belong to B)

f(1) = (1 + 1)/(2*1 - 1) = 2  (this does belong to B)

f(2) = (2 + 1)/(2*2 - 1) = 1 (this does belong to B)

f(3) = (3 + 1)/(2*3 - 1) = 4/5  (this does belong to B)

f(4) = (4 + 1)/(2*4 - 1) = 5/7  (this does belong to B)

So the range of f(x) is the set with all these outputs, which is:

Range: {-1, 0, 5/7, 4/5, 1, 2}

h(t) - 16^2 + 88ft +9. How long will it take the rocket to reach its maximum height? What is the maximum height?
The rocket reaches its maximum height at ____ second(s) after launch.
(Simplify your answer.)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The position function for this is:

[tex]s(t)=-16t^2+88t+9[/tex]. We can use this equation to find the position (or height) of the rocket at ANY TIME during its flight. I could find out the height of the rocket at 3 seconds by plugging in a 3 for t and solving for s(t); I could find the height of the rocket at 12 seconds by plugging in a 12 for t and solving for s(t), etc.

The first derivative of position is velocity:

v(t) = -32t + 88.

If we are looking for the time the rocket reaches it max height, we need to remember from physics class that this happens when the velocity of the object is at 0. We set the velocity equation equal to 0 then and solve for t:

0 = -32t + 88 and

-88 = -32t so

t = 2.75 seconds. This means that 2.75 seconds after the rocket is launched, it reaches its max height. In order to find what that max height is we plug 2.75 into the position equation for t and solve:

[tex]s(2.75)=-16(2.75)^2+88(2.75)+9[/tex] to get that

s(2.75) = 130

The max height is 130 feet and it reaches this point at 2.75 seconds into its motion.

Verify that the indicated function y = ϕ(x) is an explicit solution of the given first-order differential equation. (y − x)y' = y − x + 18; y = x + 6 √(x + 4)

When y = x + 6√(x + 4) y'=_________
Thus in terms of x, (y-x)y'=________
y-x+18=________

Answers

If y = x + 6√(x + 4), then

y' = 1 + 3/√(x + 4)

Substituting y and y' into the DE gives

(y - x) y' = (x + 6√(x + 4) - x) (1 + 3/√(x + 4))

… = 6√(x + 4) (1 + 3/√(x + 4))

… = 6√(x + 4) + 18

on the left side, while on the right you get

y - x + 18 = x + 6√(x + 4) - x + 18

… = 6√(x + 4) + 18

so both sides match and the given function is indeed a solution to the DE.
