Answer:

-2, 8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

You can consider the area to be that of a trapezoid with parallel bases f(a) and f(4), and width (4-a). The area of that trapezoid is ...

 A = (1/2)(f(a) +f(4))(4 -a)

 = (1/2)((3a -1) +(3·4 -1))(4 -a)

 = (1/2)(3a +10)(4 -a)

We want this area to be 12, so we can substitute that value for A and solve for "a".

 12 = (1/2)(3a +10)(4 -a)

24 = (3a +10)(4 -a) = -3a² +2a +40

 3a² -2a -16 = 0 . . . . . . subtract the right side

 (3a -8)(a +2) = 0 . . . . . factor

Values of "a" that make these factors zero are ...

 a = 8/3, a = -2

The values of "a" that make the area under the curve equal to 12 are -2 and 8/3.

Alternate solution

The attachment shows a solution using the numerical integration function of a graphing calculator. The area under the curve of function f(x) on the interval [a, 4] is the integral of f(x) on that interval. Perhaps confusingly, we have called that area f(a). As we have seen above, the area is a quadratic function of "a". I find it convenient to use a calculator's functions to solve problems like this where possible.

The relationship between the standard deviation and variance is that the standard deviation is the square root of the variance.

The correct option is -C

Hence, the correct option is (c) Standard deviation is the square root of the variance. Variance is the arithmetic mean of the squared differences from the mean of a set of data. It is a statistical measure that measures the spread of a dataset. The squared difference from the mean value is used to determine the variance of the given data set.

It is represented by the symbol 'σ²'. Standard deviation is the square root of the variance. It is used to calculate how far the data points are from the mean value. It is used to measure the dispersion of a dataset. The symbol 'σ' represents the standard deviation. The formula for standard deviation is:σ = √(Σ(X-M)²/N) Where X is the data point, M is the mean value, and N is the number of data points.

Answer: 2  

Step-by-step explanation:

The movement of a point along the coordinate geometry is referred to as translation.

Points B and C must be moved 3 units to the right and 1 unit upward to produce a new triangle that has the same orientation and is congruent to the original triangle.

Given that:

\(A = (0,4)\)

\(A' = (3,5)\)

Calculate the movement from A to A',

We simply calculate the difference between the coordinates of A and A'.

For the horizontal movement, we calculate the difference between the x-coordinates

\(x = x_2 - x_1\)

\(x = 3 - 0\)

\(x = 3\)

This implies 3 units to the right

For the vertical movement, we calculate the difference between the y-coordinates

\(y = y_2 - y_1\)

\(y = 5 -4\)

\(y = 1\)

This implies 1 unit upward

Hence, points B and C must be moved 3 units to the right and 1 unit upward to produce a new triangle that has the same orientation and is congruent to the original triangle.

Country B has a median wind speed that is higher than country A does.

The median is the value separating the higher half from the lower half of a data sample, a population, or a probability distribution in statistics and probability theory. It could be considered "the intermediate" value for a set of data.

An ordered data set's median is its middle number. The mean is calculated as the product of all values divided by all possible values.

The entire distance traveled by the object in a specific amount of time is its average speed. A scalar quantity, average speed, exists. The magnitude serves as its representation, and it lacks direction.

The typical wind speeds for two nations have been provided to us.

Country A's median equals the box's second term (1+9.5).

=5.25, which is the box's seventh word.

B's median is equal to (1.2+11)/2.

The two different point on a segment joining the United States Capital and the White House such that the ratio of the shorter segments created by each is 1 : 3 are \(\vec C_{1} =(-1,7)\) and \(\vec C_{2} = (-7,13)\).

Step-by-step explanation:

At first we need to calculate the vector distance between \(A(x,y) = (2, 4)\) and \(B(x,y) =(-10,16)\) by following vectorial subtraction:

\(\overrightarrow{AB} = \vec B - \vec A\) (Eq. 1)

Where:

\(\overrightarrow{AB}\) - Vector distance between points A and B, dimensionless.

\(\vec A\), \(\vec B\) - Vector distance between each point and origin, dimensionless.

If we know that \(A(x,y) = (2, 4)\) and \(B(x,y) =(-10,16)\), then we have the following result:

\(\overrightarrow {AB} = (-10,16)-(2,4)\)

\(\overrightarrow{AB} = (-10-2,16-4)\)

\(\overrightarrow{AB} = (-12,12)\)

Besides, we can find the location of any point inside the line segment by using the following vectorial equation:

\(\vec C = \vec A + r\cdot \overrightarrow{AB}\) (Eq. 2)

Where:

\(r\) - Segment factor, dimensionless.

\(\vec C\) - Location of resulting point, dimensionless.

There are two different options for the location of resulting point: \(r_{1} = \frac{1}{4}\) and \(r_{2} = \frac{3}{4}\). Now we proceed to find each option:

\(r_{1} = \frac{1}{4}\)

\(\vec C_{1} = (2,4) +\frac{1}{4}\cdot (-12,12)\)

\(\vec C_{1} = (2,4)+(-3,3)\)

\(\vec C_{1} =(-1,7)\)

\(r_{2} = \frac{3}{4}\)

\(\vec C_{2} = (2,4) +\frac{3}{4}\cdot (-12,12)\)

\(\vec C_{2} = (2,4) +(-9,9)\)

The given equation is x=-6.

The slope of the line is the ratio of the rise to the run, or rise divided by the run. It describes the steepness of line in the coordinate plane.

The formula to find the slope of a line is slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Here, x =−6 is a vertical line, there is no y-intercept and the slope is undefined.

So, slope = 1/0

The determinant of the matrix a with 8's on the diagonal, 1's above the diagonal, and 0's below the diagonal is det(a) = 8ⁿ, where n is the dimension of the matrix.

To find the determinant of the n×n matrix a with 8's on the diagonal, 1's above the diagonal, and 0's below the diagonal, we can use the property that the determinant of a triangular matrix is equal to the product of its diagonal elements.

Since the matrix a is an upper triangular matrix, its determinant is the product of its diagonal elements.

The diagonal elements of matrix a are all 8's. Therefore, the determinant of matrix a can be computed as follows:

det(a) = 8 * 8 * 8 * ... * 8 (n times)

      = 8ⁿ

Hence, the determinant of the matrix a is 8 raised to the power of n (det(a) = 8ⁿ).

This means that the determinant of matrix a is simply 8 raised to the power of the dimension of the matrix (n).

The specific values of the elements above and below the diagonal (1's and 0's, respectively) do not affect the determinant, as they do not contribute to the product when computing the determinant of an upper triangular matrix.

In summary, the determinant of matrix a is det(a) = 8ⁿ, where n represents the dimension of the matrix.

First, find the common denominator between 3/4 and 1/10. If you multiply 1/10 by 2/2 you get 2/20. If you multiply 3/4 by 5/5 you get 15/20. Now that we have the common denominator, how many times can 2/20 go into 15/20? Since 2 x 7 = 14, the answer is 7.

A.H₀: µ = 46mg

H₁: µ ≠ 46mg

B. the average amount found in the sample (48mg) is higher than the desired amount (46mg).

C. The confidence interval is (45.405, 50.595).

(A) The null hypothesis (H₀) is that the average amount of the chemical compound in each pill is equal to 46mg. The alternate hypothesis (H₁) is that the average amount of the chemical compound in each pill is different from 46mg.

H₀: µ = 46mg

H₁: µ ≠ 46mg

(B) To conduct the hypothesis test, we will use a t-test since the population standard deviation is unknown. We will compare the sample mean to the hypothesized value of 46mg.

The test statistic can be calculated using the formula:

t = (¯x - µ₀) / (s / √n)

where ¯x is the sample mean, µ₀ is the hypothesized value (46mg), s is the sample standard deviation, and n is the sample size.

Given:

Sample mean (¯x) = 48mg

Sample standard deviation (s) = 7.5mg

Sample size (n) = 100

Hypothesized value (µ₀) = 46mg

Calculating the test statistic:

t = (48 - 46) / (7.5 / √100)

t = 2 / 0.75

t ≈ 2.6667

Next, we need to find the critical t-value at a significance level of 99% with (n - 1) degrees of freedom. Since the sample size is 100, the degrees of freedom are 99. Using a t-distribution table or statistical software, the critical t-value is approximately ±2.626.

Since the calculated t-value (2.6667) is greater than the critical t-value (±2.626), we reject the null hypothesis.

In the context of the problem, rejecting the null hypothesis means that the average amount of the chemical compound in the pills is significantly different from 46mg. The evidence suggests that the pills contain a different amount than the ideal value.

Based on the result, the factory should adjust the chemical compound in its pills to decrease the amount since the average amount found in the sample (48mg) is higher than the desired amount (46mg).

(C) To construct a 99% confidence interval for µ, we can use the following formula:

Confidence interval = ¯x ± (t * (s / √n))

Using the same values as before:

Confidence interval = 48 ± (2.626 * (7.5 / √100))

Confidence interval = 48 ± 2.595

The confidence interval is (45.405, 50.595).

Since the hypothesized value of 45mg falls within the confidence interval, we cannot be 99% confident that the true mean is different from 45mg. Our conclusion from the hypothesis test agrees with the confidence interval result.

S2 is the sum of the first two terms, so: S2 = a1 + arTo find S2, we must first determine a1 and r. a1 is the first term in the sequence, and r is the common ratio. We can obtain both a1 and r by dividing the second term by the first term.The formula is:r = (ar/a1) = a2/a1 Substitute the value of r and a1 into the formula for S2 to obtain the result: S2 = a1 + ar = a1 + a1r = a1(1+r) Therefore, the value of a1 is a constant number that will appear in the series, and the common ratio, r, will be multiplied by this number to obtain the next value in the series.

The PDF of W = X², if X has an exponential distribution with parameter λ, is equal to fW(w) = (1/2)λ√w × \(e^{(-\lambda \sqrt{w} )}\) for w ≥ 0 and fW(w) = 0 for w < 0.

To find the probability density function (PDF) of the random variable W = X² when X has an exponential distribution with parameter λ,

Apply a transformation to the original PDF.

Let us denote the PDF of X as fX(x) and the PDF of W as fW(w). We want to find fW(w).

To begin, let us express W in terms of X,

W = X²

Now, find the PDF of W, which is the derivative of the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of W.

So, find the CDF of W first.

The CDF of W is ,

FW(w) = P(W ≤ w)

Substituting W = X², we have,

FW(w) = P(X² ≤ w)

To determine the probability of X² being less than or equal to w,

consider that X can take on both positive and negative values.

So,  split the calculation into two cases,

First case,

X ≥ 0

In this case, X² ≤ w implies X ≤ √w, since X is non-negative.

Thus, we have,

FW(w) = P(X² ≤ w) = P(X ≤ √w)

Since X has an exponential distribution, its CDF is given by,

FX(x) = 1 -\(e^{(-\lambda x)}\)  for x ≥ 0

for the case X ≥ 0, we have,

FW(w) = P(X ≤ √w) = FX(√w) = 1 -\(e^{(-\lambda \sqrt{w} )}\)

Second case,

X < 0

X² ≤ w implies X ≤ -√w, since X is negative.

However, for X < 0, X² is always non-negative.

The probability is always 0 in this case.

Combining both cases, we can write the CDF of W as,

FW(w) = 1 - \(e^{(-\lambda \sqrt{w} )}\) for w ≥ 0

FW(w) = 0 for w < 0

Finally, to find the PDF fW(w), we take the derivative of the CDF with respect to w,

fW(w) = d/dw [FW(w)]

Differentiating, we have,

fW(w) = (1/2)λ√w × \(e^{(-\lambda \sqrt{w} )}\) for w ≥ 0

fW(w) = 0 for w < 0

Therefore, the PDF of W = X², when X has an exponential distribution with parameter λ, is given by,

fW(w) = (1/2)λ√w × \(e^{(-\lambda \sqrt{w} )}\) for w ≥ 0

fW(w) = 0 for w < 0
