Answer:
1) if tₙ = 3*n - 2, we want to find the value of S(5), which is the sum of the first 5 terms.
We can simply compute the sum directly, it is:
S(5) = t₁ + t₂ + t₃ + t₄ + t₅
S(5) = (3*1 - 2) + (3*2 - 2) + (3*3 - 2) + (3*4 - 2) + (3*5 - 2)
S(5) = 35
Then the correct option here is a).
2) This is not correctly written.
I will assume that we the n-th term is:
tₙ = n^2 + 3*n
And we want S(5) again
Then:
S(5) = t₁ + t₂ + t₃ + t₄ + t₅
S(5) = (1^2 + 3*1) + (2^2 + 3*2) + (3^2 + 3*3) + (4^2 + 3*4) + (5^2 + 3*5)
S(5) = 100
So the correct option is (d)
(Notice that if we had chosen any other S(n), the answer is still option (d) )
Which three steps are correct when solving this quadratic equation by completing the square? X^2-10x=39
Step-by-step explanation:
Any answer that involes,
Step 1: Complete the Square
[tex] {x}^{2} - 10x = 39[/tex]
[tex]( \frac{ - 10}{2} ) {}^{2} = 25[/tex]
[tex] {x}^{2} - 10x + 25 = 64[/tex]
Step 2: Turn the left side into a binomial
[tex](x - 5) {}^{2} = 64[/tex]
Step 3: Solve for x.
[tex]x - 5 = + - 8[/tex]
[tex]x - 5 = 8[/tex]
[tex]x = 13[/tex]
OR
[tex]x - 5 = - 8[/tex]
[tex]x = - 3[/tex]
X=-3 or X=13
Suppose it is known that 23% of students at a certain college participate in a textbook recycling program each semester. Complete parts (a) and (b) below. a. If a random sample of 40 students is selected, do we expect that exactly 23% of the sample participates in the textbook recycling program? Why or why not? Choose the correct answer below. A. We expect that exactly 23% of the sample participates in the textbook recycling program, because that is the percentage of students that participate in the program regardless of sample or population size B. We expect that exactly 23% of the sample participates in the textbook recycling program, because a sample always has the same statistics as the population C. We do not expect that exactly 23% of the sample participates in the textbook recycling program. 23% is a population statistic and you cannot know anything about a sample from the population D. We do not expect that exactly 23% of the sample participates in the textbook recycling program. We do expect that the sample proportion will be close to the population proportion, but it will vary by the sample error from sample to sample b. Suppose we take a sample of 400 students and find the sample proportion participating in the recycling program. Which sample proportion do you think is more likely to be doser to 23% the proportion from a sample size of 40 or the proportion from a sample size of 400? Explain your reasoning. Choose the correct answer below A. The sample with size 40 will be closer to 23% because a smaller sample size has a smaller standard error B. The sample with size 400 will be closer to 23% because a larger sample size has a smaller standard error. C. The sample with size 400 will be closer to 23% because a larger sample size has more variation, D. The sample with size 40 wil be closer to 23% because a smaller sample size has loss variation
Answer:
D. We do not expect that exactly 23% of the sample participates in the textbook recycling program. We do expect that the sample proportion will be close to the population proportion, but it will vary by the sample error from sample to sample
B. The sample with size 400 will be closer to 23% because a larger sample size has a smaller standard error.
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean of sample can be estimated from the population. However, what we only get is the estimated mean of the sample which isn't the exact figure as that of the population. This slight variation in the mean value of the sample is due to sampling error.
According to the Central limit theorem, increasing the sample size yield a sample mean which continously converges to that of the population mean as the sampling error for such distribution drops lower and lower.
The true statements are:
D. We do not expect that exactly 23% of the sample participates in the textbook recycling program. We do expect that the sample proportion will be close to the population proportion, but it will vary by the sample error from sample to sample B. The sample with size 400 will be closer to 23% because a larger sample size has a smaller standard error.The given parameters are:
[tex]\mathbf{P(Recycling) = 23\%}[/tex]
This means that there is a 23% chance that a student in a college participates in textbook recycling
However, it does not mean that the probability is exactly 23% in a sample of 40 students.
This is so because, there may be error in the sampling of the population.
Hence, the true statement is (d)
According to central limit theorem, as the sample size increases, the sample error reduces.
This mean that the probability will be closer to 23% when the sample size increases to 400
Hence, the true statement is (b)

time that the rocket will hit the ground, to the nearest 100th of second.
y = -16x² + 147x + 80
9514 1404 393
Answer:
9.70 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
The zero of the equation can be found using the quadratic formula.
ax² +bx +c = 0
x = (-b ±√(b² -4ac))/(2a)
We are only interested in the positive value of x, so this will be ...
x = (-147 -√(147² -4(-16)(80)))/(2(-16)) = (147 +√2679)/32
x ≈ 9.7028 ≈ 9.70 . . . . seconds
The rocket will hit the ground after about 9.70 seconds.

A marketing research firm believes that more than half of adults drink mostly either regular or diet soda. To test this claim, Gallup took a nationally representative sample of 2027 adults and asked them about their soda consumption. The survey shows that 950 of those surveyed drink mostly either regular or diet soda. The test statistics for the above hypthesis test for the proportion of adults who drink mostly either regular or diet soda is:________. (Round your answer to two decimal places)
Answer:
The test statistic is z = -2.82.
Step-by-step explanation:
A marketing research firm believes that more than half of adults drink mostly either regular or diet soda.
This means that the null hypothesis is: [tex]H_{0} = 0.5[/tex]
The alternate hypothesis is: [tex]H_{a} > 0.5[/tex]
The test statistic is:
[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.
0.5 tested at the null hypothesis:
This means that:
[tex]\mu = 0.5, \sigma = \sqrt{0.5*0.5} = 0.5[/tex]
Gallup took a nationally representative sample of 2027 adults and asked them about their soda consumption. The survey shows that 950 of those surveyed drink mostly either regular or diet soda.
This means that [tex]n = 2027, X = \frac{950}{2027} = 0.4687[/tex]
Test statistic:
[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
[tex]z = \frac{0.4687 - 0.5}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{2027}}}[/tex]
[tex]z = -2.82[/tex]
The test statistic is z = -2.82.

A veterinarian sampled 235 sheep from a large herd to obtain a 90% confidence interval for the mean weight of wool from the sheep. The interval was (23.7 lbs., 33.6 lbs.). If the veterinarian had used a 95% confidence interval instead, the confidence interval would be:_____.A. Wider and would have a smaller chance of missing the true mean. B. Narrower and would have a larger chance of missing the true mean. C. Narrower and would have a smaller chance of missing the true mean. D. Wider and would have a larger chance of missing the true mean. E. Wider but the chance of missing the true mean cannot be determined.
Answer:
A. Wider and would have a smaller chance of missing the true mean.
Step-by-step explanation:
Margin of error for a confidence interval:
The margin of error for a confidence interval is given by:
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In which z is related to the confidence level(the higher the confidence level, the higher the value of z), [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
95% confidence interval
Would be wider than the 90% confidence interval, due to the higher value of z.
Also, a x% confidence interval has a x% chance of having the true mean, and a (100-x)% probability of missing the true mean.
Then, a 95% confidence interval has a smaller(5%) chance of missing the true mean compared to the 90% confidence interval(10%). This means that the correct answer is given by option A.

vertex C could be at (6,0) or (2,8)
(I'm sorry if I'm wrong, but if not I hope this helps!)
Step-by-step explanation:
vertex C needs to be placed somewhere on the graph where it would form a right angle (and therefore a right-angled triangle as well). vertex C could be at (6,0) or (2,8). this is because at these two points vertex C will form a right angle, therefore making it a right-angled triangle.

Question 13 options:
1)
−8
2)
−1
3)
1
4)
8
Answer:
It's -8
Step-by-step explanation:
DISTRIBUTE :
4x + 2( x - 2 ) = 4x + x - 12
4x + 2x - 4 = 4x + x - 12
COMBINE LIKE TERMS :
4x + 2x - 4 = 4x + x - 12
6x - 4 = 4x + x - 12
COMBINE LIKE TERMS :
6x - 4 = 4x + x - 12
6x - 4 = 5x - 12
ADD 4 TO BOTH SIDES :
6x - 4 = 5x - 12
6x - 4 + 4 = 5x - 12 + 4
ADD THE NUMBERS/ SIMPLIFY :
6x = 5x - 8
SUBTRACT 5x FROM BOTH SIDES :
6x = 5x - 8
6x - 5x = 5x - 8 - 5x
SIMPLIFY :
x = -8

For 120 consecutive days, a process engineer has measured the temperature of champagne bottles as they are made ready for serving. Each day, she took a sample of 8 bottles. The average across all 960 bottles (120 days, 8 bottles per day) was 46 degrees Fahrenheit. The standard deviation across all bottles was 0.8 degrees Fahrenheit. what would be the center line
Answer:
46° Fahrenheit
Step-by-step explanation:
Center line can be said to be the X double bar. X double bar is the average value we have across all components we're considering. In this question, the X double bar is already given as 960 bottles (if you multiply 120 days by 8 bottles per day) and that it is 46 degrees Fahrenheit.
As such, there exist no reason to want to or have to solve for anything since it's already given.
Therefore the Centre line is 46 degrees Fahrenheit, same as what is given in the question.
Solve for w. 7(-2w + 3) = 1 - 4w
what is the value of w?
Answer:
w=2
Step-by-step explanation:
-14w + 21 = 1 - 4w
-10w + 21 = 1
-10w = -20
w = -20/-10
w=2
Answer:
20 - 10 W = 0
-7 (2w - 3) = 1 - 4w
21 - 14w = 1 - 4 w
w = 2
