According to the given dot plot, the striking deviation is at the value of 4, making the correct answer option C: 4.

What is the striking deviation?

A striking deviation is a noticeable or significant difference or deviation from the norm or expected value in a data set. It refers to an observation or value that stands out from the others due to its higher frequency, magnitude, or significance. In statistics, striking deviations can be identified through various measures, such as standard deviation, variance, or graphical representation, such as dot plots or box plots.

To determine the striking deviation in the given dot plot, we need to look for the value with a noticeably larger number of dots compared to the others. We can do this by comparing the frequency of dots for each value. From the given graph, we can see that the frequency of dots at 4 is significantly higher than the other values. This means that 4 has a higher occurrence or significance in the data set compared to the other values.

Therefore, the striking deviation is at the value of 4, making the answer option C: 4.

The value of x is when the value of the function f(x) = 7 is x= -24 and x = 16

Function:

A correspondence from one value x of the first set A to another value y of the second set B. It relates inputs to output is known as the function of the relation.

Given,

Here we have the function f(x) = 0.5|x - 4| - 3.

Now, we have to find the value of x when the value of f(x) = 7.

In order to find the value of x as have to equate the give function with the value of f(x), that is 7,

So, when we apply these on the function then we get,

=> 7 = 0.5|x - 4|-3

Now, we have to move all the numbers instead of x, then we get,

=> 7 + 3 = 0.5|x - 4|

=> 10 = 0.5 |x - 4|

=> 10/0.5 = |x - 4|

=> 20 = |x - 4|

So in this place we can get the following forms,

=> x - 4 = 20 and

=> x - 4 = - 20

Because we get two values being an absolute value function.

Now, we have to add 4 on both sides

Then we get

=> x - 4 + 4 = 20 + 4 and

=> x - 4 + 4 = - 20 + 4

So, the value of x is

=> x = 24 and x = - 16

Therefore, for the given function the values of x are 24 and - 16.

Answer: We conclude that the mean commute time in the U.S. is less than half an hour. We are given a random sample of 500 people from the 2000 U.S. Census is selected who reported a non-zero commute time. In this sample, the mean commute time is 27.6 minutes with a standard deviation of 19.6 minutes.

So, Null Hypothesis,  :  30 minutes      {means that the mean commute time in the U.S. is more than or equal to half an hour}

Alternate Hypothesis,  :  < 30 minutes     {means that the mean commute time in the U.S. is less than half an hour}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample t-test statistics as we don't know about population standard deviation;

                          T.S. =    ~

where,  = sample mean commute time = 27.6 minutes

           s = sample standard deviation = 19.6 minutes

           n = sample of people from the 2000 U.S. Census = 500

So, the test statistics  =    ~

                                      =  -2.738

The value of t test statistic is -2.738.

Also, P-value of test statistics is given by the following formula;

          P-value = P(  < -1.645)

Since, we know that at large sample size, the t distribution follows like normal distribution, that means;

             P(  < -1.645)  =  P(Z < -1.645) = 1 - P(Z  1.645)

                                        =  1 - 0.95002 = 0.04998

Now, at 5% significance level the t table gives critical values of -1.645 at 499 degree of freedom for left-tailed test.

Since our test statistic is less than the critical value of t as -2.378 < -1.645, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the mean commute time in the U.S. is less than half an hour.

[tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

let the denominator of the fraction be x , then the fraction is

[tex]\frac{x-5}{x}[/tex]

increasing the numerator and denominator by 4

[tex]\frac{x-5+4}{x+4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x-1}{x+4}[/tex]

this fraction is then equal to 3 times ( triple ) the value of the fraction, so

[tex]\frac{x-1}{x+4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3(x-5)}{x}[/tex] ( cross- multiplying )

3(x - 5)(x + 4) = x(x - 1) ← expand factors on left using FOIL

3(x² - x - 20) = x(x - 1) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

3x² - 3x - 60 = x² - x ( subtract x² - x from both sides )

2x² - 2x - 60 = 0 ( divide through by 2 )

x² - x - 30 = 0 ← in standard form

(x - 6)(x + 5) = 0

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6

x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5

however, x > 0 , then x = 6

Two positive integers have gcd (a, b) = 15 and lcm (a, b) = 90. Those two numbers are 15 and 90 or 30 and 45.

Suppose we have 2 positive integers, a and b, then:

gcd (a, b) = the greatest common divisor = common prime factors of a and b

lcm (a, b) = the least common multiple = multiplication of the greatest common prime factors of a and b

In the given problem:

gcd (a, b) = 15

prime factorization of 15:

15 = 3 x 5

Hence,

a = 3 x 5 x ....

b = 3 x 5 x ....

lcm (a, b) = 90

prime factorization of 90:

90 = 3 x 5 x 2 x 3

Therefore the possible pairs of a and b are:

Combination 1:

a = 3 x 5 = 15

b = 3 x 5 x 2 x 3 = 90

Combination 2:

a = 3 x 5 x 2 = 30

b = 3 x 5 x 3 = 35

From the question, we are to determine the length of BC

From the given information,

m ∠ABC = 30°

AC = 9 cm

By using SOH CAH TOA, we can write that

tan (m ∠ABC) = AC / BC

tan (30°) = 9 / BC

BC = 9 / tan (30°)

BC = 15.588

BC ≈ 15.6 cm

To determine the measure of angle EDC,

First we will determine the length of CD

From the diagram,

BD = BC + CD

20 = 15.588 + CD

CD = 20 - 15.588

CD = 4.412

Now, using SOH CAH TOA

cos (m ∠EDC) = CD / DE

cos (m ∠EDC) = 4.412 / 8

cos (m ∠EDC) = 0.5515

m ∠EDC = cos⁻¹(0.5515)

m ∠EDC = 56.5300°

m ∠EDC ≈ 56.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

The linear equation of the table is, t = -5/3a +19

The slope intercept form of a line is y=mx+b, where m is slope and b is the y intercept.

y = mx + c

where

y = dependent variable

m = slope

x = independent variable

c = y - intercept

Here we have the table with the values of t and the value of a.

Now, we need to find the linear equation for this table.

In order to find the linear equation, we need the values of slope and the y intercept values.

To find the value of slope we have to take two point from the given table.

They are (6,9) and (9,4).

Now, apply the value on the slope formula, then we get,

m = (4 - 9) / (9 - 6)

m = -5/3

Now, we have to use the slope m and the point (6,9), to find the value of y intercept,

Then we get the value of c as,

9= -5/3(6)+c

9=-10+c

c=19

Consider being informed that the standard deviation of the income of computer programmers in Canada is $458.60 and that a computer programmer in Canada making $2,063.30 has a z-score of 0.50 in comparison to other programmers in Canada. Consequently, the typical pay for computer programmers in Canada is. Assume you are also informed that the mean wage for computer programmers in Portugal is $1,387.40 and that a computer programmer in Portugal who earns $1,387.40 has a z-core of 2.00 in comparison to other computer programmers in Portugal is $925.

Since, the salaries are relative and we know that the z-score is given by;

z = X - μ / σ

0.50 = 2063.30 - μ / 458.60

μ = 2063.30 - 229.3

μ = 1834

As, the salaries are relevant so;

2 = 1387.40 - 925 / σ
