Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rate at which an eucalyptus tree will grow modelled by the equation 0.5+6/(t+4)³ feet per year, where t is the time (in years).

The amount of growth can be gotten by integrating the given rate equation as shown;

[tex]\int\limits {0.5 + \frac{6}{(t+4)^{3} } } \, dt \\= \int\limits {0.5} \, dt + \int\limits\frac{6}{(t+4)^{3} } } \, dx } \, \\= 0.5t +\int\limits {6u^{-3} } \, du \ where \ u = t+4 \ and\ du = dt\\= 0.5t + 6*\frac{u^{-2} }{-2} + C\\= 0.5t-3u^{-2} +C\\= 0.5t-3(t+4)^{-2} + C[/tex]

a)  The number of feet that the tree will grow in the second year can be gotten by taking the limit of the integral from  t =1 to t = 2

[tex]\int\limits^2_1 {0.5 + \frac{6}{(t+4)^{3} } } \, dt = [0.5t-3(t+4)^{-2}]^2_1\\= [0.5(2)-3(2+4)^{-2}] - [0.5(1)-3(1+4)^{-2}]\\= [1-3(6)^{-2}] - [0.5-3(5)^{-2}]\\ = [1-\frac{1}{12}] - [0.5-\frac{3}{25} ]\\= \frac{11}{12}-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{3}{25}\\ = 0.9167 - 0.5 + 0.12\\= 0.5367feet[/tex]

b)  The number of feet that the tree will grow in the third year can be gotten by taking the limit of the integral from  t =2 to t = 3

[tex]\int\limits^3_2 {0.5 + \frac{6}{(t+4)^{3} } } \, dt = [0.5t-3(t+4)^{-2}]^3_2\\= [0.5(3)-3(3+4)^{-2}] - [0.5(2)-3(2+4)^{-2}]\\= [1.5-3(7)^{-2}] - [1-3(6)^{-2}]\\ = [1.5-\frac{3}{49}] - [1-\frac{1}{12} ]\\ = 1.439 - 0.9167\\= 0.5223feet[/tex]

c) The total number of feet grown during the second year can be gotten by substituting the value of limit from t = 0 to t = 2 into the equation as shown

[tex]\int\limits^2_0 {0.5 + \frac{6}{(t+4)^{3} } } \, dt = [0.5t-3(t+4)^{-2}]^2_0\\= [0.5(2)-3(2+4)^{-2}] - [0.5(0)-3(0+4)^{-2}]\\= [1-3(6)^{-2}] - [0-3(4)^{-2}]\\ = [1-\frac{1}{12}] - [-\frac{3}{16} ]\\= \frac{11}{12}+\frac{3}{16}\\ = 0.9167 - 0.1875\\= 0.7292feet[/tex]

Answer:

4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

288=16 * 18

12+4=16

14+4=18

The dimensions increased by 4 feet.

The area of the rectangle is the product of the length and width of a given rectangle.

The area of the rectangle = length × Width

Given;

Dimensions of rectangle = 12 + x and 14 + x

The area of the rectangle= (12 + x) (14 + x) = 288

x² + 26x + 168 = 288

x² + 26x - 120 = 0

(x + 30) (x - 4) = 0

x=-30, x =4

Hence, The dimensions increased by 4 feet.

Now our vertex lies in the point (2,-3) and since the graph was move dow i=of the x-axis we now have two different x-intercepts.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, we have 1851 bullets that we KNOW are NOT MATCHES of one another. One by one they examine two bullets at a time.

So, there are 1851 bullets but each time we choose 2.

We have, N choose K = N! / K! (N-k)!

Here, N = 1851 and K = 2

Therefore, 1851 choose 2 = 1851! / 2! (1851-2)!

                                         = 1851! / 2! * 1849!

                                         = 1712175 Possible Combinations

Out of these 653 are false positive.

The chance of getting false positive is = 658 / 1712175

                                                            = 0.000384

                                                           = 0.0384 %

Therefore, The correct option is

The chance of false positive is 0.0384% Because this probability is sufficiently small (< or = 1%) There is high confidence in the agency's forensic evidence.

Answer:

d: please note I am not sure about this but look at my reasoning and maybe you can find your own answer that you are sure about.

D: i am sure about this.

Step-by-step explanation:

From what I looked up, i believe what you are talking about is deductive reasoning, which is based off of facts. It can't be a or b because that wasn't defined in the statement. Squares and rectangles are not the same thing since you can have a square that is a rectangle, but a rectangle that is not a square, so D is correct.

corresponding angles i believe since they are matching

I know that the 2 lines are parallel because 5 and 6 are alternate interior angles since they are on opposite sides.

4 and 6 are not vertical or right angles, so it must be d, also they follow what a corresponding angle is, which is them being matching.

Answer:

13. B

14. D

Step-by-step explanation:

13. Law of Detachment says that if two statements are true then we can derive a third true statement. So, for example, say the first statement is that you are a human. Say the second statement is that you breathe. You can write this as: if you are a human, you breathe. In this case, if you have a square, then you have a rectangle. You have a quadrilateral.

14. 4 and 6 are corresponding angles, since you can tell that there are two parallel lines from angle 5 = angle 6. You can also use angle addition theorem.

Answer:

The number of weeks it will take for the  beetle population to reach 236 is 28.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a quantity starts at size P₀ and grows by d every time period, then the

quantity after n time periods can be determined using explicit form:

[tex]P_{n} = P_{0} + d \cdot n[/tex]

Here,

d = the common difference, i.e. the amount  that the population changes each time n is increased by 1.

In this case it is provided that the original population of beetle was:

P₀ = 6; (week 0)

And the population after 8 weeks was,

P₈ = 86

Compute the value of d as follows:

[tex]P_{8} = P_{0} + d \cdot 8\\86=6+8d\\86-6=8d\\80=8d\\d=10[/tex]

Thus, the explicit formula for the beetle population after n weeks is:

[tex]P_{n}=P_{0}+8n[/tex]

Compute the number of weeks it will take for the  beetle population to reach 236 as follows:

[tex]P_{n}=P_{0}+8n\\\\236=6+8n\\\\8n=236-6\\\\8n=230\\\\n=28.75[/tex]

Thus, the number of weeks it will take for the  beetle population to reach 236 is 28.75.

Answer:

[tex] z = \frac{0.11-0.14}{0.0139} = -2.156[/tex]

And we can use the normal standard distribution table and we got:

[tex] P(Z<-2.156) =0.0155[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we know the following info given:

[tex] p =0.14[/tex] represent the population proportion

[tex] n = 622[/tex] represent the sample size selected

We want to find the following proportion:

[tex] P(\hat p <0.11)[/tex]

For this case we can use the normal approximation since we have the following conditions:

i) np = 622*0.14 = 87.08>10

ii) n(1-p) = 622*(1-0.14) =534.92>10

The distribution for the sample proportion would be given by:

[tex] \hat p \sim N (p ,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}) [/tex]

The mean is given by:

[tex] \mu_{\hat p}= 0.14[/tex]

And the deviation:

[tex]\sigma_{\hat p}= \sqrt{\frac{0.14*(1-0.14)}{622}}= 0.0139[/tex]

We can use the z score formula given by:

[tex] z=\frac{\hat p -\mu_{\hat p}}{\sigma_{\hat p}}[/tex]

And replacing we got:

[tex] z = \frac{0.11-0.14}{0.0139} = -2.156[/tex]

And we can use the normal standard distribution table and we got:

[tex] P(Z<-2.156) =0.0155[/tex]

Rounding to the nearest hour, the times at which the population was 600,000 was at 9 hours and at 39 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine the time(s) at which the population was 600,000.

This is t for which P(t) = 600000. To do this, we solve a quadratic equation.

Solving a quadratic equation:

Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:

[tex]ax^{2} + bx + c, a\neq0[/tex].

This polynomial has roots [tex]x_{1}, x_{2}[/tex] such that [tex]ax^{2} + bx + c = a(x - x_{1})*(x - x_{2})[/tex], given by the following formulas:

[tex]x_{1} = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}[/tex]

[tex]x_{2} = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}[/tex]

[tex]\bigtriangleup = b^{2} - 4ac[/tex]

In this question:

[tex]P(t) = -1718t^{2} + 82000t + 10000[/tex]

We have to find t for which P(t) = 600000. Then

[tex]600000 = -1718t^{2} + 82000t + 10000[/tex]

[tex]-1718t^{2} + 82000t - 590000 = 0[/tex]

So [tex]a = -1718, b = 82000, c = -590000[/tex]

Then

[tex]\bigtriangleup = 82000^{2} - 4*(-1718)*(-590000) = 2669520000[/tex]

[tex]t_{1} = \frac{-82000 + \sqrt{2669520000}}{2*(-1718)} = 8.8[/tex]

[tex]t_{2} = \frac{-82000 - \sqrt{2669520000}}{2*(-1718)} = 38.9[/tex]

Rounding to the nearest hour, the times at which the population was 600,000 was at 9 hours and at 39 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a sequence c1,c2,c3,...has limit K then the sequence ec1,ec2,ec3,...has limit e^K. Use this fact together with l'Hopital's rule to compute the limit of the sequence given by

bn=(n)^(5.6/n).

a)

[tex]L = \lim_{n \to \infty} b_n \\\\\\L= \lim_{n \to \infty} n^{\frac{5.6}{n} }[/tex]

Log on both sides

[tex]In (L) = \lim_{n \to \infty} In (n)^{\frac{5.6}{n} }\\\\= \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{5.6}{n} In(n)[/tex]

[tex]=5.6 \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{d}{dn} In(n)/\frac{d}{dn} (n)\\\\=5.6 \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{1}{n} /1 \\\\=5.6 \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{1}{n} \\\\=5.6 \times 0\\\\In(L) =0\\\\L=e^0\\\\L=1[/tex]

[tex]\therefore \lim_{n \to \infty} (n)^{\frac{5.6}{n} =1[/tex]

The limit value of given sequece is 1.

To understand more, check below explanation.

The given sequence is,

                   [tex]b_{n}=n^{5.6/n}[/tex]

We have to find limit of above sequence.

           [tex]L=\lim_{n \to \infty} b_n \\\\L=\lim_{n \to \infty}n^{5.6/n} \\\\ln(L)=\lim_{n \to \infty}\frac{5.6}{n}ln(n) \\\\ln(L)=5.6\lim_{n \to \infty}\frac{ln(n)}{n} \\\\ln(L)=5.6\lim_{n \to \infty}\frac{1/n}{1} \\\\ln(L)=5.6*0=0\\\\L=e^{0}=1[/tex]

Answer:

The probability that all four received a raised when they asked for one is 0.370.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the random variable X represent the number of business executives who received a pay raise when they asked for one.

The probability that a business executives received a pay raise when they asked for one is, p = 0.78.

A random sample of n = 4 executives was selected.

The events of any executive receiving a pay raise when they asked for one is independent of the others.

The random variable X follows a Binomial distribution with parameters n = 4 and p = 0.78.

The probability mass function of X is:

[tex]P(X=x)={4\choose x}\ (0.78)^{x}\ (1-0.78)^{4-x};\ x=0,1,2,3...[/tex]

Compute the probability that all four received a raised when they asked for one as follows:

[tex]P(X=4)={4\choose 4}\ (0.78)^{4}\ (1-0.78)^{4-4}[/tex]

                [tex]=1\times 0.37015056\times 1\\\\=0.37015056\\\\\apporx 0.370[/tex]

Answer:

Please read the complete answer below!

Step-by-step explanation:

You have the following function:

[tex]f(x)=x^3-3x^2-9x+4[/tex]   (1)

a) To find the interval on which f is increasing or decreasing, you first calculate the critical points of f(x).

You calculate the derivative f(x) respect to x:

[tex]\frac{df}{dx}=3x^2-6x-9[/tex]    (2)

Next, you equal the derivative to zero, and then you find the roots of the polynomial by using the quadratic formula:

[tex]3x^2-6x-9=0\\\\x_{1,2}=\frac{-(-6)\pm\sqrt{(-6)^2-4(3)(-9)}}{2(3)}\\\\x_{1,2}=\frac{6\pm12}{6}\\\\x_1=-1\\\\x_2=3[/tex]

Then, the critical points are x=-1 and x=3

Next, you calculate df/dx for a values of x to the left and to the right of the critical points x1 and x2. If df/dx < 0 the function is decreasing, if df/dx > 0 the function is increasing.

for x = -1.01

[tex]\frac{df(-1.01)}{dx}=3(-1.01)^2-6(-1.01)-9=0.12[/tex]

Then, in the interval (-∞,-1), the function is increasing

for x = -0.99

[tex]\frac{df(-0.99)}{dx}=3(-0.99)^2-6(-0.99)-9=-0.11[/tex]

In the interval (-1,3) the function is decreasing

for x = 3.01

[tex]\frac{df(3.01)}{dx}=3(3.01)^2-6(3.01)-9=0.12[/tex]

In the interval (3,+∞) the function is increasing

b) To find the local minimum and maximum you use the second derivative of the function:

[tex]\frac{d^2f}{dx^2}=6x-6[/tex]     (3)

you evaluate the second derivative for the critical points x1 and x2, if the second derivative is positive, you have a local minimum. If the second derivative is negative, you have a local maximum:

for x1 = -1

[tex]6(-1)-6=-12<0[/tex]

x=-1 is a local maximum

for x2 = 3

[tex]6(3)-6=12>0[/tex]

x=3 is a local minimum

c) upward concavity: (-1,3)

downward concavity: (-∞,-1)U(3,+∞)

The inflection points are calculated with the second derivative equal to zero:

[tex]6x-6=0\\\\x=1[/tex]

For x = 1 you have an inflection point

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a test of 2 independent groups. Let μ1 be the mean dissolution time for disk-shaped ibuprofen tablets and μ2 be the mean dissolution time for oval-shaped ibuprofen tablets.

The random variable is μ1 - μ2 = difference in the mean dissolution time for disk-shaped ibuprofen tablets and the mean dissolution time for oval-shaped ibuprofen tablets.

We would set up the hypothesis.

a) The null hypothesis is

H0 : μ1 = μ2 H0 : μ1 - μ2 = 0

The alternative hypothesis is

H1 : μ1 ≠ μ2 H1 : μ1 - μ2 ≠ 0

This is a two tailed test.

For disk shaped,

Mean, x1 = (269.0 + 249.3 + 255.2 + 252.7 + 247.0 + 261.6)/6 = 255.8

Standard deviation = √(summation(x - mean)²/n

n1 = 6

Summation(x - mean)² = (269 - 255.8)^2 + (249.3 - 255.8)^2 + (255.2 - 255.8)^2+ (252.7 - 255.8)^2 + (247 - 255.8)^2 + (261.6 - 255.8)^2 = 337.54

Standard deviation, s1 = √(337.54/6) = 7.5

For oval shaped,

Mean, x2 = (268.8 + 260 + 273.5 + 253.9 + 278.5 + 289.4 + 261.6 + 280.2)/8 = 270.7375

n2 = 8

Summation(x - mean)² = (268.8 - 270.7375)^2 + (260 - 270.7375)^2 + (273.5 - 270.7375)^2+ (253.9 - 270.7375)^2 + (278.5 - 270.7375)^2 + (289.4 - 270.7375)^2 + (261.6 - 270.7375)^2 + (280.2 - 270.7375)^2 = 991.75875

Standard deviation, s2 = √(991.75875/8) = 11.1

b) Since sample standard deviation is known, we would determine the test statistic by using the t test. The formula is

(x1 - x2)/√(s1²/n1 + s2²/n2)

Therefore,

t = (255.8 - 270.7375)/√(7.5²/6 + 11.1²/8)

t = - 3

c) The formula for determining the degree of freedom is

df = [s1²/n1 + s2²/n2]²/(1/n1 - 1)(s1²/n1)² + (1/n2 - 1)(s2²/n2)²

df = [7.5²/6 + 11.1²/8]²/[(1/6 - 1)(7.5²/6)² + (1/8 - 1)(11.1²/8)²] = 613.86/51.46

df = 12

We would determine the probability value from the t test calculator. It becomes

p value = 0.011

d) Since alpha, 0.05 > than the p value, 0.011, then we would reject the null hypothesis. Therefore, we can conclude that at 5% significance level, the mean dissolve times differ between the two shapes

Answer:

Amount that Brian has after 2 years = £6932.53

Step-by-step explanation:

To find, the amount that Brian will have after 2 years:

Formula for amount where compound interest is applicable:

[tex]A = P \times (1+\dfrac{R}{100})^t[/tex]

Where A is the amount after t years time

P is the principal.

R is the rate of interest.

In the question, we are given the following details:

Principal amount,P = £6300

Rate of interest,R = 4.9%

Time,t = 2 years

Putting the values in formula:

[tex]A = 6300 \times (1+\dfrac{4.9}{100})^2\\\Rightarrow 6300 \times (\dfrac{104.9}{100})^2\\\Rightarrow 6932.53[/tex]

Hence, Amount that Brian has after 2 years = £6932.53

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a missing content in the question.

After the statements and before the the options given; there is an omitted content which says:

Referring to Table 16-5, in testing the coefficient of X in the regression equation (0.117) the results were a t-statistic of 9.08 and an associated p-value of 0.0000. Which of the following is the best interpretation of this result?

Answer:

C. The quarterly growth rate in the number of contracts is significantly different from 0% (? = 0.05).

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given question:

The resulting regression equation can be represented as:

[tex]\hat Y = 3.37 + 0.117 X - 0.083 Q_1 + 1.28 Q_2 + 0.617Q_3[/tex]

where;

the estimated number of contracts in a quarter X is the coded quarterly value with X = 0

the first quarter of 2010 Q1 is a dummy variable equal to 1 in the first quarter of a year and 0 otherwise

Q2 is a dummy variable equal to 1 in the second quarter of a year and 0 otherwise

Q3 is a dummy variable equal to 1 in the third quarter of a year and 0 otherwise

Our null and alternative hypothesis can be stated as;

Null hypothesis :

[tex]H_0 :[/tex]  The quarterly growth rate in the number of contracts is not  significantly different from 0% (? = 0.05)

[tex]H_a:[/tex]  The quarterly growth rate in the number of contracts is significantly different from 0% (? = 0.05)

The decision rule is to reject the null hypothesis if the p-value is less than 0.05.

From the missing omitted part we added above; we can see that the   t-statistics value = 9.08 and the p-value = 0.000 .

Conclusion:

Thus; we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis. i.e

The quarterly growth rate in the number of contracts is significantly different from 0% (? = 0.05)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Be the variable of interest:

X: Number of weeks it takes a worker aged 55 plus to find a job

Sample average X[bar]= 22 weeks

Sample standard deviation S= 11.89 weeks

Sample size n= 40

a)

The point estimate of the population mean is the sample mean

X[bar]= 22 weeks

It takes on average 22 weeks for a worker aged 55 plus to find a job.

b)

To estimate the population mean using a confidence interval, assuming the variable has a normal distribution is

X[bar] ± [tex]t_{n_1; 1-\alpha /2}[/tex] * [tex]\frac{S}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

[tex]t_{n-1; 1-\alpha /2}= t_{39; 0.975}= 2.023[/tex]

The structure of the interval is "point estimate" ± "margin of error"

d= [tex]t_{n_1; 1-\alpha /2}[/tex] * [tex]\frac{S}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]= 2.023*[tex](\frac{11.89}{\sqrt{40} })[/tex]= 3.803

c)

The interval can be calculated as:

[22  ±  3.803]

[18.197; 25.803]

Using s 95% confidence level, you'd expect the population mean of the time it takes a worker 55 plus to find a job will be within the interval [18.197; 25.803] weeks.

d)

To study the form of the distribution I've used the raw data to create a histogram of the distribution. See attachment.

As you can see in the histogram the distribution grows gradually and then it falls abruptly. The distribution is right skewed.
