21. Which of the following statements is true?
(1) -18 > -5
(2) -5 > -0.5
(3) -5> 0
(4) -5 > 52
(5) -5 > -18​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: (5) -5 > -18​

Step-by-step explanation:

The farther the negative number is from 0, the smaller it becomes.Negative numbers will be smaller than positive numbers, since they're smaller than 0.

-5 is 5 away from zero, making it larger than -18 since it's closer to 0, while -18 is 18 away from zero.

Two ice cream stands are deciding where to set up along a 1-mile-long beach. The people are uniformly located along the beach, and each person sitting on the beach buys exactly 1 ice cream cone per day from the nearest stand. Each ice cream seller wants the maximum number of customers. True or False: The two stands will most likely be 1/3 mile away from each other. True

Answers

Answer:

Each ice cream seller wants the maximum number of customers:

True

The two ice cream stands will most likely be 1/3 mile away from each other.

True

Step-by-step explanation:

This distance enables the two ice cream stands to give access to the maximum number of customers at the beach, which will be almost equal at their right-hand and left-hand sides.  Therefore, the two ice cream stands will most likely be 1/3 mile away from each other.  Such positioning exposes the ice cream stands to almost equal number of customers since the people standing along the beach are uniformly located.  Taking the extreme locations along the 1-mile-long beach will shrink location opportunities for both stands.

A study was done to determine the average number of homes that a homeowner owns in his or her lifetime. For the 50 homeowners surveyed, the sample average was 5.1 and the sample standard deviation was 3.8. Calculate the 95% confidence interval for the true average number of homes that a person owns in his or her lifetime.

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the true average number of homes that a person owns in his or her lifetime is (4,6.2).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom,which is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 50 - 1 = 49

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 49 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.0096

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.0096\frac{3.8}{\sqrt{50}} = 1.1[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 5.1 - 1.1 = 4

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 5.1 + 1.1 = 6.2.

The 95% confidence interval for the true average number of homes that a person owns in his or her lifetime is (4,6.2).

Find an equation of the circle whose diameter has endpoints , (−6,−1) and (2,3).

Answers

Answer:

first... You think and Conceptualize

A diameter divides a circle into equal halves

We're given the end points of the Diameter.

With this we can fine the Center of the circle.

The End Points are

(-6, -1) and ( 2, 3)

Half-way through the diameter gives the center of the circle

So We'd apply the Mid-Point formula to get the co-ordinate of the center.

X= x₁ + x₂/2 , Y = y₁ + y₂/2

X = -6 + 2/2, Y = -1 + 3/2

X= -2. Y = 1

The Midpoint is (-2, 1)

The Radius would be the distance between the center and a point on the circumference.

We already have 2 points of the circumference (Which are the endpoints of the diameter).

So we can pick any of them arbitrarily.

I'd go with (2,3)

So We'd apply the distance between Points formula to get the magnitude of the radius

(-2,1) (2,3)

D = √(x₁ - x₂)² + (y₁ - y₂)²

D = √(-2-2)² + (1-3)²

D=√(-4)² + (-2)²

D=√20.

Our Radius is √20.

Equation of Circle =

(x-h)² + (y-k)² = r²

Where h and k are the center of the circle(-2,1)

(x-(-2))² + ( y - 1 )²= (√20)²

(x + 2)² + ( y - 1)² = 20

Our Answer

(x + 2)² + (y - 1)² = 20.

This should be it.

Have a great day!

Adrian hopes that his new training methods have improved his batting average. Before starting his new regimen, he was batting 0.250 in a random sample of 56 at bats. For a random sample of 25 at bats since changing his training techniques, his batting average is 0.440. Determine if there is sufficient evidence to say that his batting average has improved at the 0.02 level of significance. Let the results before starting the new regimen be Population 1 and let the results after the training be Population 2. Step 2 of 3 : Compute the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answers

According to the manufacturer's claim, we build an hypothesis test, find the test statistic and the p-value relative to this test statistic, we have that:

The value of the test statistic is z = 1.65.The p-value of the test is of 0.0495 > 0.02, which means that there is not sufficient evidence to say that his batting average has improved at the 0.02 level of significance.

As the test involves a comparison of samples, it involves subtraction of normal variables, and for this, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Before:

Average of 0.250 in 56 at bats, so:

[tex]p_B = 0.25[/tex]

[tex]s_B = \sqrt{\frac{0.25*0.75}{56}} = 0.0579[/tex]

After:

Average of 0.44 in 25 at bats, so:

[tex]p_A = 0.44[/tex]

[tex]s_A = \sqrt{\frac{0.44*0.56}{25}} = 0.0993[/tex]

Test if there was improvement:

At the null hypothesis, we test if there was no improvement, that is, the subtraction of the proportions is 0:

[tex]H_0: p_A - p_B = 0[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if there was improvement, that is, the subtraction of the proportions is positive, so:

[tex]H_1: p_A - p_B > 0[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, and s is the standard error.

0 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 0[/tex]

From the samples:

[tex]X = p_B - p_A = 0.44 - 0.25 = 0.19[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_A^2 + s_B^2} = \sqrt{0.0579^2 + 0.0993^2} = 0.1149[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{0.19 - 0}{0.1149}[/tex]

[tex]z = 1.65[/tex]

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a difference of at least 0.19, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of z = 1.65.

Looking at the z-table, z = 1.65 has a p-value of 0.9505.

1 - 0.9505 = 0.0495.

The p-value of the test is of 0.0495 > 0.02, which means that there is not sufficient evidence to say that his batting average has improved at the 0.02 level of significance.

Answer:

A) [tex]\$\ 2932.5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

One is given that a certain amount of money was allotted to be spent on supplies. However, there was a discount applied to the purchase. One is asked to find the amount of money actually spent on the supplies.

$3450 was the initial price that was to be spent on supplies, however, a (15%) discount was applied to this price. Subtract (15) from (100) to find the percent value that was actually spent on supplies.

[tex]100-15=85[/tex]

(85%) of the allotted money was actually spent on supplies. Now one has to find out the numerical value of the amount spent. Divide (85) by (100) and then multiply it by the amount of money allotted to the purchase, to fin the amount actually spent on the purchase.

Select one:

a.
Less than $471

b.
At least 475

c.
$471 or more

d.
Less than 476

Answers

Answer:

a. Less than $471

Step-by-step explanation:

The total price must be less than $578.10.

Let the price of the 4 tires = x.

He pays 10% tax on x. That means he pays x + 10%x = 1.1x including tax.

Then he pays the $60 fee.

He pays a total of 1.1x + 60

That must be less than $578.10

1.1x + 60 < 578.10

Subtract 60 rom both sides.

1.1x < 518.1

Divide both sides by 1.1

x < 471

He facilitated the purchase of New Orleans and the rest of the French territory from France in 1803 for $15 million. This new land was called the Louisiana Territory and stretched partway across the continent. It was the first step in expanding the United States. The purchase of the Louisiana Territory led to a pattern of westward expansion through payment, negotiations, and conflict.Read the passage from the website: www.expandingcountries.edu/unitedstates/louisianapurchaseThe Louisiana Purchase doubled the size of the United States and vastly increased its resources and riches.
