A team of researchers wants to determine whether pet owners are generally more satisfied with their lives than non-pet owners. To test their theory, the researchers randomly select 500 pet owners and 500 non-pet owners from several major metropolitan areas in the country. The researchers then interview the individuals, asking them a series of questions. Each response is assessed with a point value that is later translated to a satisfaction indicator. Of the pet owners surveyed, 380 of the 500 were found to be satisfied with their lives, while 336 of the 500 non-pet owners were found to be satisfied.
Would this study be considered an experiment or an observational study?

TV(X,X+a) = ?

Answers

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

Computing Tv(X, X + a ) for any a∈(0,1)

Given that :  X∼Ber(0.5)

∴ The probability mass function

    P(X = 1 ) = 0.5

    P(X = 0) = ( 1 - 0.5 )

and expectation  E[X] = 0.5

hence ; TV ( X, X + a ) = 1

Given the system of equations, what is the solution? 2x+y = -1 х- у = -5​

Answers

Answer:

x=-2, y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

make it easy first, solve for x in the second equation: x= -5+y.

then sub that in for the other x: 2(-5+y)+y= -1

now combine like terms: -10+3y= -1

solve for y: 3y=9, y= 3

then replace y for your second equation: x-3= -5

solve for x= -5+3.... so then its -2

check by replacing all variables with your new solutions:

2(-2), which is -4+3 does equal -1

(-2) -3 does equal -5.

your answers are x=-2, y=3

A brick staircase has a total of 17 steps The bottom step requires 131 bricks. Each successive step requires 5 less bricks than the prior one. How many bricks are required to build the staircase?

Answers

Answer: 1547 bricks are required to build the staircase.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

Number of bricks in the first step, [tex]a_1[/tex] = 131

Number of bricks in the second step, [tex]a_2[/tex] = 131 - 5 = 126

Number of bricks in the third step, [tex]a_3[/tex] = 126 - 5 = 121

Sequence become:

131, 126, 121, .....

These are in arithmetic progression where a = 131 and d (common difference) = -5

To calculate the sum of an AP, we use the formula:

[tex]S_n=\frac{n}{2}[2a+(n-1)d][/tex]

where,

n = number of terms = 17

Putting values in above equation, we get:

[tex]S_n=\frac{17}{2}[2(131)+(17-1)(-5)]\\\\S_n=\frac{17\times 182}{2}=1547[/tex]

Hence, 1547 bricks are required to build the staircase.

The equation of the new function is [tex]g(x) = \frac{x}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Horizontally stretching a function:

Horizontally stretching a function f(x), by a factor of a, means that:

[tex]g(x) = f(\frac{x}{a})[/tex]

In this question:

[tex]f(x) = x[/tex], horizontally stretched by a factor of 3, so [tex]a = 3[/tex], and:

[tex]g(x) = f(\frac{x}{3}) = \frac{x}{3}[/tex]

Solve the equation ln(x - 3) + ln(x + 1) = ln(x + 7)

x = 5, or x = ???

Answers

Answer:

x = 5 or x = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rules of logarithms

log x + log y = log (xy)

log x = log y ⇒ x = y

Given

ln(x- 3) + ln(x + 1) = ln(x + 7) , then

ln (x - 3)(x + 1) = ln (x + 7) , so

(x - 3)(x + 1) = x + 7 ← expand left side using FOIL

x² - 2x - 3 = x + 7 ( subtract x + 7 from both sides )

x² - 3x - 10 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 5)(x + 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 5 = 0 ⇒ x = 5

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

the measure of the second smallest angle.
118°
131°
132.5°
142°
None of these answers are correct.

Answers

Answer:  132.5 degrees  (choice C)

=====================================================

Explanation:

The interior angles are consecutive numbers such as 1,2,3,... or 7,8,9... and so on. The gap between any two adjacent neighbors is 1.

For any polygon with n sides, the interior angles add up to 180(n-2)

We have n = 8 sides so the interior angles sum to 180(n-2) = 180(8-2) = 1080 degrees.

Any octagon has its interior angles add up to 1080 degrees.

-----------------------------

Let x be the smallest angle. The next angle up is x+1. After that is x+2 and so on until we reach x+7 as the 8th angle.

Add up those 8 angles, set the sum equal to 1080 and solve for x

x+(x+1)+(x+2)+(x+3)+(x+4)+(x+5)+(x+6)+(x+7) = 1080

8x+28 = 1080

8x = 1080-28

8x = 1052

x = 1052/8

x = 131.5

This is the smallest angle. The next angle up or the second smallest angle is x+1 = 131.5+1 = 132.5 degrees  (choice C)

A study of the effect of television commercials on 12-year-old children measured their attention span, in seconds. The commercials were for clothes, food, and toys.

31 43 58

Required:
a. Find the values of mean and standard deviation.
b. Is there a difference in the mean attention span Of the children for the various commercials?

Answers

Answer:

(a)

Mean

[tex]\bar x_1 = 31.375[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_2 = 41.75[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_3 = 53.00[/tex]

Standard deviation

[tex]\sigma_1 = 8.73[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_2 = 7.65[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_3 = 6.04[/tex]

(b) Yes, there is a difference in the mean

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (a): The mean and standard deviation of each commercial

This is calculated as:

[tex]\bar x = \frac{\sum x}{n}[/tex]

For clothes:

[tex]\bar x_1 = \frac{43+24+42+35+28+31+17+31}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_1 = \frac{251}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_1 = 31.375[/tex]

For food:

[tex]\bar x_2 = \frac{30+38+46+54+47+42+34+43}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_2 = \frac{334}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_2 = 41.75[/tex]

For toys:

[tex]\bar x_3 = \frac{52+58+43+49+63+53+48+58}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_3 = \frac{424}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_3 = 53.00[/tex]

The sample standard deviation is:

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum(x - \bar x)^2}{n-1}}[/tex]

For clothes:

[tex]\sigma_1 = \sqrt{\frac{(43 - 31.375)^2 +.............+(31 - 31.375)^2}{8-1}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_1 = \sqrt{\frac{533.875}{7}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_1 = \sqrt{76.2678571429}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_1 = 8.73[/tex]

For food:

[tex]\sigma_2 = \sqrt{\frac{(30 - 41.75)^2 +............+(43 - 41.75)^2}{8-1}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_2 = \sqrt{\frac{409.5}{7}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_2 = \sqrt{58.5}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_2 = 7.65[/tex]

For toys:

[tex]\sigma_3 = \sqrt{\frac{(52-53.00)^2+...................+(58-53.00)^2}{8}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_3 = \sqrt{\frac{292}{8}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_3 = \sqrt{36.5}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma_3 = 6.04[/tex]

Solving (b): Difference in mean in the commercials;

In (a), we have:

[tex]\bar x_1 = 31.375[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_2 = 41.75[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_3 = 53.00[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_1 \ne \bar x_2 \ne \bar x_3[/tex]

Hence, there is a difference in their means

Answers

Answer:

Mark Brainliest please

Answer: 5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Curved Surface area of a cylinder formula :-

2.pie*r*h (where r is the radius)
Height = 21 cm

Curved Surface area of the cylinder = 660 cm2

So, 2* pie* r* h = 660 (Here I will assume pie to be 22/7)

And 2* 22/7 * 21* r = 660

And 132 * r = 660
Therefore, r = 660/132 = 5cnn

Therefore radius of the cylinder = 5 cm

Thus, this is an independent event.

B) A card is taken from a deck of cards without replacement and set aside. Then after that another card is taken from the first sample, this means that the first sample size has now reduced and thus the first card taken affects the probability of the second card to be picked.

Since ABCD ~ JKLM, therefore, the ratio of their corresponding sides would be equal. Thus:

JK/AB = KL/BC = LM/CD = JM/AD

Substitute

12/x = y/6 = 15/9 = 10/z

✔️Find x:
