C. Zeros at x = 2 and x = 3

D. The zeros are the hot dog prices that give $0.00 profit (no profit).

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D. The zeros are the hot dog prices that give $0.00 profit (no profit).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function  y=-2(x-3)² + 4

The zeros of the function are the points at which the graph of the function crosses the x axis if plotted. y is the daily profit (in hundreds of dollars) and x is the price of the hot dog. To find the zeros, we substitute x = 0 and solve.

Therefore:  y=2(x-3)² + 4

0 = 2(x-3)² + 4

-2(x² - 6x + 9) + 4 = 0

-2x² + 12x - 18 + 4 = 0

2x² - 12x + 18 - 4 = 0

2x² - 12x + 14 = 0

2(x² - 6x + 7) = 0

x² - 6x + 7 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation gives:

x = 3 + √2 and x = 3 - √2

This means that the graph crosses x at 3 + √2 and 3 - √2.

The zeros of the function are 3 + √2 and 3 - √2. The zeros of the function is the point where y = 0, that is the point that the hot dog prices that give $0.00 profit (no profit).

HELPP PLEASEE ��2222 is the diameter of a circle. The coordinates are �(−2, −3) and �(−12, −5). At what coordinate is the center of the circle located? A. (5, 1) B. (−5, −1) C. (−4, −7) D. (−7, −4)

Answers

Answer:

(-7, -4)  which is your answer D in the list of options

Step-by-step explanation:

The center of the circle should be located half way in between the given points on the plane.

Then the center ahs to be located half way for the x coordinates of both points:

half way between -12 and -2 (notice that there is a difference of 10 units between them), therefore half way would be at 5 units to the right from the furthest point, that is  -12 + 5 = -7

Similarly, for the y coordinate, we see that the difference is between -5 and -3 (a difference of two units) therefore the center point will be located half way  (that is one unit) up from the lowest y coordinate: -5 + 1 = -4

Then the center of the circle is located at (-7, -4)

which operation should you perform first when evaluating the expression 3²+ 2​

Answers

Answer:

You should calculate 3² first.

Step-by-step explanation:

In PEMDAS, E (which stands for exponents) comes before A (which stands for addition) so therefore you should calculate 3² first.

Answer: Exponents is done first (evaluate [tex]3^2[/tex] first)

Explanation:

The acronym PEMDAS helps determine the order of operations

P = parenthesis

E = exponents

M = multiplication

D = division

A = addition

S = subtraction

With the expression [tex]3^2+2[/tex] we have two operations going on here: exponents and addition.

Since exponents comes before addition (E comes before A in PEMDAS), this means we evaluate [tex]3^2[/tex] first, then add later.

Suppose that the neighboring cities of Tweed and Ledee are long-term rivals. Neal, who was born and raised in Tweed, is confident that Tweed residents are more concerned about the environment than the residents of Ledee. He knows that the average electricity consumption of Tweed households last February was 854.11 kWh and decides to test if Ledee residents used more electricity that month, on average. He collects data from 65 Ledee households and calculates the average electricity consumption to be 879.28 kWh with a standard deviation of 133.29 kWh. There are no outliers in his sample data. Neal does not know the population standard deviation nor the population distribution. He uses a one-sample t-test with a significance level of α = 0.05 to test the null hypothesis, H0:µ=854.11, against the alternative hypothesis, H1:μ>854.11 , where μ is the average electricity consumption of Ledee households last February. Neal calculates a t‑statistic of 1.522 and a P-value of 0.066.

Based on these results, complete the following sentences to state the decision and conclusion of the test.

Answer:

Neal's decision is to fail to reject the null hypothesis   (p 0.066). There is no sufficient evidence to prove the claim that the average electricity consumption of all  Ledee household is greater than , 854.28 kWh

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The population mean is  [tex]\mu = 854.11[/tex]

   The sample size is  [tex]n = 65[/tex]

    The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 879.28 \ kWh[/tex]

    The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 133.29 \ kWh[/tex]

    The level of significance is  [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

     The  null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o: \mu = 854.11[/tex]

     The  alternative hypothesis is  [tex]H_a : \mu > 854.11[/tex]

     The  t-statistics is  [tex]t = 1.522[/tex]

      The  p-value is [tex]p-value = 0.066[/tex]

Now from the given data we can see that

         [tex]p-value < \alpha[/tex]

Generally when this is the case , we fail to reject the null hypothesis

   So

Neal's decision is to fail to reject the null hypothesis   (p 0.066). There is no sufficient evidence to prove the claim that the average electricity consumption of all  Ledee household is greater than , 854.28 kWh

x/10*10 = -7*10

x = -70

Simplify 10 - [14 = (3 + 4) · 2]+3

Answers

Answer:

There is a typo near the equal sign.

There can be two different answers if we think that = sign as + or -.

First way: Making = as +

=> 10 - [14 + (3+4) x 2] +3

=> 10 - [14 + 7 x 2] + 3

=> 10 - [14 + 14] + 3

=> 10 - 28 + 3

=> 10 + 3 - 28

=> 13 - 28

=> -15

=> So, -15 is the answer if we consider "=" sign as "+" sign.

Second way: Making = as -

=> 10 - [14 - (3+4) x 2] + 3

=> 10 - [14 - 7 x 2] + 3

=> 10 - [14 - 14] + 3

=> 10 - 0 + 3

=> 10 + 3

=> 13

=> So, 13 is the answer if we consider "=" sign as "-" sign.

A particular salad contains 4 units of vitamin A, 5 units of vitamin B complex, and 2 mg of fat per serving. A nutritious soup contains 6 units of vitamin A, 2 units of vitamin B complex, and 3 mg of fat per serving. If a lunch consisting of these two foods is to have at least 10 units of vitamin A and at least 10 units of vitamin B complex, how many servings of each should be used to minimize the total number of milligrams of fat

Answers

Answer:

2 servings of salad and 1 serving of soup

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given scenario the aim is to minimise the fat content of the food combination.

Fat content of soup is 3mg while fat content of salad is 2 mg.

Using Soup as 0 and Salad as 2 will not give the required vitamin content

The logical step will be to keep servings of soup to the minimum.

Let's see some combinations of salad and soup. Keeping serving of soup to the minimum of 1

1. 1 serving of salad and one serving of soup will contain 10 mg of vitamin A, 7 mg of vitamin B complex, and 3 mg of fat.

This will not work because amount of vitamin B complex is not up to 10 mg

2. 2 servings of salad and 1 serving of soup. Will contain 14 mg of vitamin A, 12 mg of vitamin B, and 7 mg of fat

This is the best option as we have amount of vitamin A and vitamin B complex in adequate quantity.

Also fat is lowest in this combination because soup the food with highest fat content is at minimum amount of one serving

The U.S. National Whitewater Center in Charlotte uses a pump station to provide the flow of water necessary to operate the rapids. The pump station contains 7 pumps, each with a capacity to deliver 80,000 gallons per minute (gpm). The water channels and ponds in the facility contain 13 million gallons of water. If the pump station is operating 5 pumps simultaneously, assuming ideal conditions how long will it take to completely pump the volume of the system through the pump station

Answers

Answer:

t = 32,5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume to fill =  13000000 Gal

5 pumps delivering  80000 gal/min

5 * 80000 = 400000 gal/min

If we divide the total volume by the amount of water delivered for the 5 pumps, we get the required time to fill the volume, then

t =  13000000/ 400000

t = 32,5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of the triangle is calculated as

A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] bh ( b is the base and h the perpendicular height )

Here b = ST = a = 12 and h = RS

To calculate RS use the tangent ratio in the right triangle and the exact value

tan60° = [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] , thus

tan60° = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{RS}{ST}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{RS}{12}[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 12 )

RS = 12[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Thus

A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 12 × 12[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] = 6 × 12[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] = 72[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] units²

The amounts of nicotine in a certain brand of cigarette are normally distributed with a mean of 0.966 grams and a standard deviation of 0.315 grams. Find the probability of randomly selecting a cigarette with 0.305 grams of nicotine or less.

Answers

Answer:

The  probability is  [tex]P(X \le 0.305 ) = 0.01795[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The population mean is  [tex]\mu = 0.966 \ grams[/tex]

       The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 0.315 \ grams[/tex]

Given that the amounts of nicotine in a certain brand of cigarette are normally distributed

    Then the probability of randomly selecting a cigarette with 0.305 grams of nicotine or less is mathematically represented as

        [tex]P(X \le 0.305 ) = 1 - P(X > 0.305) = 1 - P(\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } > \frac{0.305 - \mu }{\sigma } )[/tex]

Generally

              [tex]\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } = Z (The \ standardized \ value \ of X )[/tex]

So  

      [tex]P(X \le 0.305 ) = 1 - P(X > 0.305) = 1 - P(Z > \frac{0.305 - 0.966 }{0.315} )[/tex]

      [tex]P(X \le 0.305 ) = 1 - P(X > 0.305) = 1 - P(Z >-2.0984 )[/tex]

From the z-table(reference calculator dot  net  ) value of   [tex]P(Z >-2.0984 ) =0.98205[/tex]

So  

     [tex]P(X \le 0.305 ) = 1 - P(X > 0.305) = 1 - 0.98205[/tex]

=>  [tex]P(X \le 0.305 ) = 1 - P(X > 0.305) = 0.01795[/tex]

=> [tex]P(X \le 0.305 ) = 0.01795[/tex]

Complete Question

Two samples from the same population both have M = 84 and s2 = 20, but one sample has n = 10 and the other has n = 20 scores. Both samples are used to evaluate a hypothesis stating that μ = 80 and to compute Cohen’s d. How will the outcomes for the two samples compare?

a.

The larger sample is more likely to reject the hypothesis and will produce a larger value for Cohen’s d.

b.

The larger sample is more likely to reject the hypothesis, but the two samples will have the same value for Cohen’s d.

c.

The larger sample is less likely to reject the hypothesis and will produce a larger value for Cohen’s d.

d.

The larger sample is less likely to reject the hypothesis, but the two samples will have the same value for Cohen’s d.

Answer:

The Cohen's d value is  [tex]d = 0.895[/tex]

The  correct option is b

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  sample mean of  each population is  [tex]M = 84[/tex]

    The  variance of each  population is  [tex]s^2 = 20[/tex]

    The  first sample size is  [tex]n_1 = 10[/tex]

    The  second  sample size is  [tex]n_2 = 20[/tex]

 

The  null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o : \mu = 80[/tex]

   Generally the standard deviation is mathematically evaluated as

            [tex]s = \sqrt{20 }[/tex]

=>         [tex]s = 4.47[/tex]

  The first test statistics is evaluated as

            [tex]t_1 = \frac{M - \mu }{ \frac{\sigma }{ \sqrt{n_1} } }[/tex]

    =>    [tex]t_1 = \frac{84 - 80 }{ \frac{4.47 }{ \sqrt{10} } }[/tex]

   =>     [tex]t_1 = 2.8298[/tex]

  The second  test statistics is evaluated as

           [tex]t_2 = \frac{M - \mu }{ \frac{\sigma }{ \sqrt{n_2} } }[/tex]

=>       [tex]t_2 = \frac{84 - 80 }{ \frac{4.47 }{ \sqrt{20} } }[/tex]

=>       [tex]t_2 = 4.0[/tex]

The sample with the larger test statistics (sample  size) will more likely reject the null hypothesis

Generally the Cohen's d value is mathematically evaluated as

          [tex]d = \frac{M - \mu }{s }[/tex]

  =>     [tex]d = \frac{ 84 - 80 }{4.47 }[/tex]    

=>         [tex]d = 0.895[/tex]

Given that the the sample mean and  sample size are the same for both sample the Cohen's d value will be  the same
