Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2+8x+26
Take the coefficient of the x term
8
Divide by 2
8/2 = 4
square it
4^2 =16
we need to add 16 to 26 = 16+10
x^2 + 8x+16 +10
(x+4)^2 +10
The answer you are looking for is (x+4)²+10.
Solution/Explanation:
Selecting the "x" term's coefficient,
It would be 8.
Now, dividing it by 2,
8/2=4.
Squaring 4,
4²=16.
So, now, since (x+4)²=x²+8x+16, you must solve for 26-16, which equals 10, which you would supplement into the equation.
So, therefore, (x+4)²+10.

Step-by-step explanation:
the arrows from the picture tells us that TV is parallel to RS
since TS is a transversal that cuts the 2 parallel lines TV and RS than ∠S =x
(alternate interior angles)
sum of angles in a Δ is 180° so x+x+2x = 180°, 4x =180°, x= 45°

A number increased by a% and decreased by 80% is 400. What is the number?
will give brainliest
Answer:
If we have a given number N, and we increase it by x%, then the new number is:
N + (x%/100%)*N
While if we decrease it by x%, the new number will be:
N - (x%/100%)*N
Now, we know that:
"A number increased by a% and decreased by 80% is 400. What is the number?"
First, we can not solve the problem, because we have two unknown values, the original number and the "a%", which I guess is a typo.
So, to be general with my answer, let's assume that the actual question is:
"A number increased by 50% and decreased by 80% is 400. What is the number?"
Then, if our original number is N and we increase it by 50%, the new number will be:
N + N*(50%/100%)
N + N*0.5
N*(1 + 0.5)
N*(1.5)
Now we decrease it by 80%, and that will be equal to 400, then:
N*1.5 - N*(1.5)*(80%/100%) = 400
N*1.5 - N*1.5*0.8 = 400
N*(1.5 - 1.5*0.8) = 400
N*(0.3) = 400
N = 400/0.3 = 1,333.33...
Remember that this is a kinda general solution, so you can understand how to solve this type of problem.
A survey sampled men and women workers and asked if they expected to get a raise or promotion this year. Suppose the survey sampled 200 men and 200 women. If 98 of the men replied Yes and 72 of the women replied Yes, are the results statistically significant so that you can conclude a greater proportion of men expect to get a raise or a promotion this year?
a. State the hypothesis test in terms of the population proportion of men and the population proportion of women.
b. What is the sample proportion for men? For women?
c. Use α= 0.01 level of significance. What is the p-value and what is your conclusion?
Answer:
a)
The null hypothesis is: [tex]H_0: p_M - p_W = 0[/tex]
The alternative hypothesis is: [tex]H_1: p_M - p_W > 0[/tex]
b) For men is of 0.49 and for women is of 0.36.
c) The p-value of the test is 0.0039 < 0.01, which means that the results are statistically significant so that you can conclude a greater proportion of men expect to get a raise or a promotion this year.
Step-by-step explanation:
Before solving this question, 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.
Men:
98 out of 200, so:
[tex]p_M = \frac{98}{200} = 0.49[/tex]
[tex]s_M = \sqrt{\frac{0.49*0.51}{200}} = 0.0353[/tex]
Women:
72 out of 200, so:
[tex]p_W = \frac{72}{200} = 0.36[/tex]
[tex]s_W = \sqrt{\frac{0.36*0.64}{200}} = 0.0339[/tex]
a. State the hypothesis test in terms of the population proportion of men and the population proportion of women.
At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion are similar, that is, if the subtraction of the proportions is 0, so:
[tex]H_0: p_M - p_W = 0[/tex]
At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion of men is greater, that is, the subtraction is greater than 0, so:
[tex]H_1: p_M - p_W > 0[/tex]
b. What is the sample proportion for men? For women?
For men is of 0.49 and for women is of 0.36.
c. Use α= 0.01 level of significance. What is the p-value and what is your conclusion?
From the sample, we have that:
[tex]X = p_M - p_W = 0.49 - 0.36 = 0.13[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{s_M^2+s_W^2} = \sqrt{0.0353^2 + 0.0339^2} = 0.0489[/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, so:
[tex]z = \frac{0.13 - 0}{0.0489}[/tex]
[tex]z = 2.66[/tex]
P-value of the test and decision:
The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a difference above 0.13, which is the p-value of z = 2.66.
Looking at the z-table, z = 2.66 has a p-value of 0.9961.
1 - 0.9961 = 0.0039.
The p-value of the test is 0.0039 < 0.01, which means that the results are statistically significant so that you can conclude a greater proportion of men expect to get a raise or a promotion this year.

a new extended-life light bulb has an average service life of 700 hours, with a standard deviation of 50 hours. if the service life of these light bulbs approximates a normal distribution, about what percent of the distribution will be between 600 hours and 900 hours
Answer:
Hence the distribution will be between 600 hours and 900 hours is 74.9%.
Step-by-step explanation:
By reporting only p-values, many scientific publications provide an incomplete story of their findings.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
a.
Step-by-step explanation:
The p-value is a measurement of the likelihood that a difference observed is due to a random chance or a sampling error. In an alternative way, the p-value of a study represents the probability or area under distribution for obtaining more radical outcomes whenever the null hypothesis is true.
Any observable change is deemed to be addressed by sampling variability if the P-value is greater than the selected alpha level. A statistical test will nearly always show a substantial difference with a suitably big sample unless there is no impact at all when the effect size is exactly zero.
As a result, simply reporting the P-value alone for a study is insufficient to fully validate the results and findings of scientific publications.
A company claims that its soup vending machines deliver exactly 8 ounces of soup to every customer. You do not want the vending machines to deliver too much or too little soup. How would you formulate this properly in hypothesis testing?a) H0 : µ >8b) H0 : µ =8c) H0 > 8d) None of these
Answer:
[tex]H_0: \mu = 8[/tex]
[tex]H_1: \mu \neq 8[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
A company claims that its soup vending machines deliver exactly 8 ounces of soup to every customer.
This means that the null hypothesis is that the mean is exactly 8, that is:
[tex]H_0: \mu = 8[/tex]
You do not want the vending machines to deliver too much or too little soup.
We don't want the mean to be different from 8, which means that the alternative hypothesis is given by:
[tex]H_1: \mu \neq 8[/tex]
A certain species of virulent bacteria is being grown in a culture. It is observed that the rate of growth of the bacterial population is proportional to the number present. If there were 3000 bacteria in the initial polulation and the number doubled after the first 60 minutes, how many bacteria will be present after 2 hours
Answer:
12000 bacteria
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that
60 minutes = 1 hour
Given that the rate of growth of the bacterial population is proportional to the number present.
If there were 3000 bacteria in the initial population and the number doubled after the first 60 minutes
Then after 60 minutes, the number of bacteria present would be
= 3000 * 2
= 6000
In another 60 minutes, the number would have doubled again, thus the number present then would be
= 6000 * 2
= 12000
Hence after 120 minutes, the number of bacteria present is 12000. 120 minutes is same as 2 hours
The average time to serve a customer at a fast-food restaurant is 4.35 minutes. The standard deviation of the service time is 2.5 minutes. What is the coefficient of variation of the service time
Answer: 0.5747
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Average time to serve a customer[tex](\mu)=4.35[/tex] minutes
standard deviation of the service time [tex](\sigma)=[/tex] 2.5 minutes
coefficient of variation = [tex]\frac{\sigma}{\mu}[/tex]
[tex]=\dfrac{2.5}{4.35}\\\\=\dfrac{250}{435}\\\\=0.5747[/tex]
Hence, the required coefficient of variation= 0.5747
The sum of the 3rd and 7th terms of an A.P. is 38, and the 9th term is 37. Find the A.P?
Let a be the first term in the arithmetic progression. Then each successive term differs from a by a fixed number c, so that
• first term = a
• second term = a + c
• third term = (a + c) + c = a + 2c
• fourth term = (a + 2c) + c = a + 3c
and so on. In general, the n-th term in the AP is a + (n - 1) c.
The sum of the 3rd and 7th terms is 38, so that
(a + 2c) + (a + 6c) = 38
==> 2a + 8c = 38
==> a + 4c = 19 … … … [1]
The 9th term is 37, so
a + 8c = 37 … … … [2]
Subtracting [1] from [2] eliminates a and lets you solve for c :
(a + 8c) - (a + 4c) = 37 - 19
4c = 18
c = 18/4 = 9/2
Solve for a using either equations [1] or [2] :
a + 8 (9/2) = 37
a + 36 = 37
a = 1
Then the n-th term in the AP is 1 + 9/2 (n - 1) or 9/2 n - 7/2, where n ≥ 1.
Look at the figure below: an image of a right triangle is shown with an angle labeled y degrees If sin y° = s divided by 8 and tan y° = s divided by t, what is the value of cos y°?
cos y° = 8s
cos y° = 8t
cos y°= t / 8
cos y°=8 / t

Find a power series representation for the function. (Give your power series representation centered at x=0 .) f(x)=15+x
Answer:
[tex]f(x) = \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n=0} \frac{-(1)^n\cdot x^n}{5^{n+1}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]f(x) = \frac{1}{5 + x}[/tex]
Required
The power series centered at [tex]x = 0[/tex]
We have:
[tex]f(x) = \frac{1}{5 + x}[/tex]
Factor out 5 from the denominator
[tex]f(x) = \frac{1}{5(1 + \frac{x}{5})}[/tex]
Rewrite as:
[tex]f(x) = \frac{\frac{1}{5}}{(1 + \frac{x}{5})}[/tex]
Further, rewrite as:
[tex]f(x) = \frac{1}{5}(1 + \frac{x}{5})^{-1}[/tex]
Expand the bracket
[tex]f(x) = \frac{1}{5}(1 - \frac{x}{5} + (\frac{x}{5})^2 - (\frac{x}{5})^3+..........)[/tex]
Evaluate all exponents
[tex]f(x) = \frac{1}{5}(1 - \frac{x}{5} + \frac{x^2}{25} - \frac{x^3}{125}+......)[/tex]
Open brackets
[tex]f(x) = \frac{1}{5} - \frac{x}{5^2} + \frac{x^2}{5^3} - \frac{x^3}{5^4}+......[/tex]
Notice the pattern as:
[tex]f(x) = \frac{1}{5} - \frac{x}{5^2} + \frac{x^2}{5^3} - \frac{x^3}{5^4}+......\± \frac{x^n}{5^{n+1}}[/tex]
So, the power series is:
[tex]f(x) = \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n=0} \frac{-(1)^n\cdot x^n}{5^{n+1}}[/tex]

According to the WHO MONICA Project the mean blood pressure for people in China is 128 mmHg with a standard deviation of 23 mmHg (Kuulasmaa, Hense & Tolonen, 1998). Assume that blood pressure is normally distributed.
a.) State the random variable.
b.) Find the probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 135 mmHg or more.
c.) Find the probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 141 mmHg or less.
d.) Find the probability that a person in China has blood pressure between 120 and 125 mmHg.
e.) Is it unusual for a person in China to have a blood pressure of 135 mmHg? Why or why not?
f.) What blood pressure do 90% of all people in China have less than?
Answer:
a) Mean blood pressure for people in China, which has mean 128 and standard deviation 23.
b) 0.3821 = 38.21% probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 135 mmHg or more.
c) 0.714 = 71.4% probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 141 mmHg or less.
d) 0.0851 = 8.51% probability that a person in China has blood pressure between 120 and 125 mmHg.
e) Since |Z| = 0.3 < 2, it is not unusual for a person in China to have a blood pressure of 135 mmHg.
f) 90% of all people in China have a blood pressure of less than 157.44 mmHg.
Step-by-step explanation:
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.
The mean blood pressure for people in China is 128 mmHg with a standard deviation of 23 mmHg
This means that [tex]\mu = 128, \sigma = 23[/tex]
a.) State the random variable.
Mean blood pressure for people in China, which has mean 128 and standard deviation 23.
b.) Find the probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 135 mmHg or more.
This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 135, so:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{135 - 128}{23}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.3[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.3[/tex] has a p-value of 0.6179.
1 - 0.6179 = 0.3821
0.3821 = 38.21% probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 135 mmHg or more.
c.) Find the probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 141 mmHg or less.
This is the p-value of Z when X = 141, so:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{141 - 128}{23}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.565[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.565[/tex] has a p-value of 0.7140.
0.714 = 71.4% probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 141 mmHg or less.
d.) Find the probability that a person in China has blood pressure between 120 and 125 mmHg.
This is the p-value of Z when X = 125 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 120, so:
X = 125
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{125 - 128}{23}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.13[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.13[/tex] has a p-value of 0.4483.
X = 120
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{120 - 128}{23}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.35[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.35[/tex] has a p-value of 0.3632.
0.4483 - 0.3632 = 0.0851
0.0851 = 8.51% probability that a person in China has blood pressure between 120 and 125 mmHg.
e.) Is it unusual for a person in China to have a blood pressure of 135 mmHg? Why or why not?
From item b, when X = 135, Z = 0.3.
Since |Z| = 0.3 < 2, it is not unusual for a person in China to have a blood pressure of 135 mmHg.
f.) What blood pressure do 90% of all people in China have less than?
The 90th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.9, so X when Z = 1.28.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]1.28 = \frac{X - 128}{23}[/tex]
[tex]X - 128 = 1.28*23[/tex]
[tex]X = 157.44[/tex]
90% of all people in China have a blood pressure of less than 157.44 mmHg.

[tex]d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}[/tex]
Let
[tex]\begin{gathered}A(5,7)\\E(-3.4)\end{gathered} [/tex]
substitute the values
[tex]dAB=\sqrt{(4-7)^{2}+(-3-5)^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]dAB=\sqrt{(-3^{2}+(-8)^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]dAB=\sqrt{73}=8.54\ units[/tex]
Which number produces an irrational number when added to 0.4
Answer:
0.31311311131111....
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to tell a number which when adds to 0.4 makes it a Irrational Number . We know that ,
Rational number :- The number in the form of p/q where p and q are integers and q is not equal to zero is called a Rational number .
Irrational number :- Non terminating and non repeating decimals are called irrational number .
Recall the property that :-
Property :- Sum of a Rational Number and a Irrational number is Irrational .
So basically here we can add any Irrational number to 0.4 to make it Irrational . One Irrational number is ,
[tex] \rm\implies Irrational\ Number = 0.31311311131111... [/tex]
So when we add this to 0.4 , the result will be Irrational . That is ,
[tex] \rm\implies 0.4 + 0.31311311131111 ... = 0.731311311131111 .. [/tex]
16. Jorge plans to paint a bedroom wall that is shaped like a trapezoid. The bottom edge of the wall is 22.5 feet long, and the top edge of the wall is 9.5 feet long. If the wall is 8 feet tall, what is the area of the wall? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth if necessary.
Answer:
128 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
length of the bottom edge of the wall (a) = 22.5 feet
length of the top edge of the wall (b) = 9.5 feet
height of the wall (h) = 8 feet
then
area of the wall = [(a + b)/2] * h
= [ (22.5 + 9.5)/2] * 8 square feet
= (32/2) * 8 square feet
= 16 * 8 square feet
= 128 square feet
