Find the inverse of the following function. Then prove they are inverses of one another.
f (x)= root 2x-1.

Answers

Answer: [tex]\dfrac{x^2+1}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(x)=\sqrt{2x-1}[/tex]

We can write it as

[tex]\Rightarrow y=\sqrt{2x-1}[/tex]

Express x in terms of y

[tex]\Rightarrow y^2=2x-1\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{y^2+1}{2}[/tex]

Replace y be x to get the inverse

[tex]\Rightarrow f^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{x^2+1}{2}[/tex]

To prove, it is inverse of f(x). [tex]f(f^{-1}(x))=x[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow f(f^{-1}(x))=\sqrt{2\times \dfrac{x^2+1}{2}-1}\\\\\Rightarrow f(f^{-1}(x))=\sqrt{x^2+1-1}\\\\\Rightarrow f(f^{-1}(x))=x[/tex]

So, they are inverse of each other.

What is parent function?

The parent function of a function is the simplest form of the function, which satisfies all the conditions of the given function.

Given that,

Parent function f(x) = 3/x,

And function g(x) = f(x + 2) - 4.

To find the graph of function g(x), first determine the value of function g(x),

Substitute x = x+2 in function f(x), to determine g(x),

g(x)  = 3/(x+2) -4

       = 3-4(x+2)/x+2

       = 3 - 4x - 8/(x + 2)

       = (-4x - 5)/(x+2)

A manufacturer knows that their items have a normally distributed length, with a mean of 15.4 inches, and standard deviation of 3.5 inches. If 16 items are chosen at random, what is the probability that their mean length is less than 16.8 inches

Answers

Answer:

0.9452 = 94.52% probability that their mean length is less than 16.8 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

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.

Mean of 15.4 inches, and standard deviation of 3.5 inches.

This means that [tex]\mu = 15.4, \sigma = 3.5[/tex]

16 items are chosen at random

This means that [tex]n = 16, s = \frac{3.5}{\sqrt{16}} = 0.875[/tex]

What is the probability that their mean length is less than 16.8 inches?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 16.8. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{16.8 - 15.4}{0.875}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.6[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.6[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9452.

0.9452 = 94.52% probability that their mean length is less than 16.8 inches.

Shawn, Ryan, and Dominic ate a whole pizza.Shawn ate 1/6 of the pizza, Ryan at 1/2 of the pizza and Dominic ate the rest how much pizza did Dominic eat

Answers

Answer:

Dominic ate [tex]\frac{2}{6}[/tex]  of the pizza.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you want to convert the fractions so they all have the same denominator (bottom number in the fraction.) That will make it a lot easier to add and subtract with them.

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{6}[/tex]

So Shawn ate 1/6 of the pizza, and Ryan ate 3/6 of the pizza. To find what else makes up the whole pizza (what Dominic ate) we add 1/6 and 3/6, then subtract from the whole.

[tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{3}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{6}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{6}{6}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{4}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{6}[/tex]

Therefore Dominic ate [tex]\frac{2}{6}[/tex]  of the pizza.

In a randomly selected sample of 100 students at a University, 81 of them had access to a computer at home.
a) Calculate a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of all students who had use of a computer at home and give it in interval notation.
b) Give the value of the point estimate described in this scenario.
c) Give the value of the standard error for the point estimate.
d) Give the value of the margin of error if you were to calculate a 99% confidence interval.

Answers

Answer:

a) The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of all students who had use of a computer at home and give it in interval notation is (0.709, 0.911).

b) 0.81

c) 0.039.

d) 0.101

Step-by-step explanation:

Question a:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

In a randomly selected sample of 100 students at a University, 81 of them had access to a computer at home.

This means that [tex]n = 100, \pi = \frac{81}{100} = 0.81[/tex]

99% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.575[/tex].

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.81 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.81*0.19}{100}} = 0.709[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.81 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.81*0.19}{100}} = 0.911[/tex]

The 99% confidence interval for the proportion of all students who had use of a computer at home and give it in interval notation is (0.709, 0.911).

b) Give the value of the point estimate described in this scenario.

Sample proportion of [tex]\pi = 0.81[/tex]

c) Give the value of the standard error for the point estimate.

This is:

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.81*0.19}{100}} = 0.039[/tex]

The standard error is of 0.039.

d) Give the value of the margin of error if you were to calculate a 99% confidence interval.

This is:

[tex]M = zs = 2.575*0.039 = 0.101[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The PDF for Uniform distribution in [a,b] is given by  

[tex]f(x)=\frac{1}{b-a}~~~~~~a\leq x\leq b[/tex]  

So the probability that the random variable assumes a value in​ [a,b] is given by

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  B.  F(-9/2, 0), x = 9/2

Step-by-step explanation:

One definition of a parabola is that it is all of the points that are equidistant from the focus and the directrix. Among other things, this means the parabola "wraps around" the focus, and opens away from the directrix.

The focus is on the axis of symmetry, so shares a coordinate with the vertex. Since the vertex is a point on the parabola, it is equidistant from the focus and directrix—halfway between them.

The given equation has x get more negative as y increases, so the parabola opens to the left. This means the focus will be a point on the -x axis. Only one answer choice meets that requirement:

  focus: (-9/2, 0), directrix: x = 9/2

__

The equation of a parabola with its vertex at the origin can be written as ...

  x = 1/(4p)y^2

In this case, we have 4p = -18, so p = -9/2. This is the distance from the vertex to the focus. The negative sign means the focus is to the left of the vertex, and its x-coordinate is -9/2 (as noted above).

Answers

Answer:

(178, 186)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Sample mean, n = 250

Sample mean, xbar = 182

Sample standard deviation, s = 32

Point estimate for the mean ;

According to the central limit theorem ; for n > 30, the sample mean equal to the population mean.

Hence, point estimate of mean cholesterol level for men is 182

B.) The standard error = s/√n

s= 32 ; n = 250

Standard error = 32/√250 = 2.0239

C.) Margin of error :

TCritical * standard error

TCritical at 95% ; df =250 -1 = 249 = 1.96

1.969 * 2.0239 = 3.966 = 3.97

D.) The confidence interval :

Point estimate ± margin of error

182 ± 3.97

182 - 3.97 = 178.03

182 + 3.97 = 185.97
