The correct response is D; we can treat the survey as one involving a single variable, responding with either "yes, I attended more than 4 games" or "no." Given the random survey of 10 students meets the randomization criterion and that their responses are independent, options B and C can be dismissed. However, since only 10 students were surveyed, the confidence interval will not be narrow. As per Statistical Solutions, a minimum of 10 subjects per variable is essential for regression analysis. If the query concerns the number of games each student attended, the potential variables increase; conversely, if it solely asks, “Did you attend more than 4 games?”, then we only consider a single variable, making 10 students sufficient.
Part A
To identify the values of x that make 2x−1 positive
⇒ 2x - 1 > 0
⇒ 2x > 1
⇒ x > 
As a result, for any x greater than
, the expression 2x-1 is positive
Part B
To find values of y making 21−37 negative
⇒ 21-3y < 0
⇒ 21 < 3y
⇒ 7 < y
Thus, for all y values exceeding 7, the expression 21-3y is negative
Part C
To identify values of c that digit 5−3c greater than 80
⇒ 5-3c > 80
⇒ -3c > 75
⇒ -c > 25
⇒ c < -25
Therefore, for values of c less than -25, the expression 5-3c surpasses 80
Response:
The width of the arch measures 105 meters
Detailed explanation:
The function that describes the width of the arch is
f(x) = -0.016(x - 52.5)² + 45
where x denotes the horizontal distance from the left end of the arch or the width at its base
f(x) indicates the vertical height of the arch
According to the given quadratic equation, the vertex coordinates of the parabola are (52.5, 45).
The vertex coordinates indicate that
the arch's height is 45 meters
and half the horizontal span from the left end is 52.5 meters
Therefore, the bridge's total width is calculated as 2 times the half span from the left side, which is 2 × 52.5
resulting in 105 meters
Consequently, the bridge's width is 105 meters.
Is there a question or not?
The behavior of the spring can be described using either a sine or cosine function. The spring's maximum displacement is 6 inches, occurring at t=0, which we will define as the positive peak. Therefore, we can express the function as:
6sin(at+B). The spring's period is 4 minutes, which means the time factor in the equation must complete a cycle (2π) in 4 minutes. This gives us the equation 4min*a=2π, leading to a=π/2. Generally, a=2π/T where a is the coefficient and T is the period. For B, since sin(π/2)=1, we determine B=π/2 because at t=0, the equation becomes 6sin(B)=6. Therefore, we substitute to form f(t)=6sin(πt/2+π/2)=6cos(πt/2)
due to trigonometric relations.
