Answer:
288 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming your "altitude" is the height of the prism--the distance between bases, the lateral area is the sum of the areas of the six rectangular faces. Each of those has an area of ...
(8 in)(6 in) = 48 in^2
so the 6 of them will have an area of ...
lateral area = 6×48 in^2 = 288 in^2

Comment on nomenclature
'Altitude' is usually associated with the height of a triangle. In the case of a regular polygon, the 'altitude' of a triangular section of the polygon is called the 'apothem', and is often designated using the letter 'a'. If the polygon is regular, the apothem can be calculated from the side length and the number of sides, but it is often given in problems involving area, perimeter, and/or volume.
The distance between the parallel bases of a prism is often referred to as the prism height or length. The use of the word 'altitude' is confusing in this case.
Since the lateral area is the product of the perimeter of the base and the distance between bases, we have to assume that your 'altitude' refers to the distance between bases. Otherwise, there is not sufficient information to work the problem.

While you can use the correlation coefficient as its own test statistic, what is the other appropriate test statistic often used to examine the significance of a correlation
Answer:
T-test
Step-by-step explanation:
Significance of correlation between two variables x and y measures the strength and direction of their relationship. This is used to make future forecasts of the behaviour of a variable under study.
Correlation coefficient can be used to measure significance of correlation, but we can also use the t-test.
T-test is a statistics that is inferential. It measures the significance of difference between the means of two groups.
T-test is the statistic of choice when carrying out hypothesis testing.
T distribution values and degrees of freedom are used to determine statistical significance.
For example the means of two samples can be compared to determine of the come from the same population
what is the area of rectangle
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
line m in the xy-plane above is to be reflected through the x-axis. if the slope of line m is 2/3,whats is the slope of the image of line m under the reflection.
Answer: The new slope is -(2/3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, we know that our line can be written as:
y = (2/3)*x + b
where b is the y-intercept, and here does not really matter.
Ok, remember that if we have a point (x, y) and we reflect it over the x-axis, the new point will be (x, -y).
For our linear equation, the point (x, y) can be written as:
(x, y = (2/3)*x + b) = (x, (2/3)*x + b)
Now, after the reflection, our point is:
(x, - ( (2/3)*x + b)) = (x, -(2/3)*x - b)
Then our new line is y = -(2/3)*x - b
The new slope is -(2/3)
Ugh I’m going insane trying to do this. Please help.
Answer:
y(x)=6^(x)-3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the exponential function be y(x) = ab^(x) but since the graph is translated 3 units down, y(x) = ab^(x)-3. Now, y(0)=-2=a*b^(0)-3. a=1. The equation is nearly complete but we need b, we can find it by using the point y(1)=3. y(x)=b^(x) - 3. y(1)=3=b-3, b=6. The equation of the function is y(x)=6^(x)-3

Is Statistics mathematics or science? Defend your answer.
Answer:
Statistics is a mathematical science pertaining to the collection, analysis, interpretation or explanation, and presentation of data. It is applicable to a wide variety of academic disciplines, from the physical and social sciences to the humanities.
Statistics is maths.
Why:-
Statistics is related to maths because we study, use and even consider statistic problems with reference to mathematics.
• It is mostly used to find the census, which is maths.
• It is used to find interest rates and other banking terms using statistics, which is again related to math.
• It is also used to find the average people living in a village or panchayat, which is also math.
Therefore I strongly believe that Statistics is Maths.

22. f(x) is stretched horizontally by a factor of 2 and reflected across the x-axis. Which choice shows the correct representation of f(x) after these transformations?
Options:
A. –f(1/2x)
B. f(–2x)
C. –f(2x)
D. f(–1/2x)
Answer:
A. -f(1/2 x)
Step-by-step explanation:
Reflextion about the x-axis is
f(x) -> -f(x)
and horizontal dilation is
f(x) -> f(-x/b) where b is the factor of dilation.
so the proper answwer is
A. -f(1/2 x)
An initial deposit of $10000 is left in account for 5.5 years at 3.6% interest compounded continuously. What is the
final value of the account to the nearest dollar after the 5.5 years?
Answer:
11980
Step-by-step explanation:
This is simple interest.
We use the formula i=prt. Interest = price x rate x time
You just plug in your numbers, 10000 is your price, 5.5 years is the time, and 3.6% interest is rate.
Now our equation looks like this: i = 10000 x 5.5 x 0.036
(i converted the percent to a decimal)
So the interest is 1980, but the question asks for the final value, so we add the interest to the initial deposit, 1980 + 10000, and we get 11980 for our final value.

Laura is bowling 5 games. Her first 4 scores were 135, 144, 116, and 132.
To end up with an average score of at least 136.8, what is the lowest score Laura will need in the fifth game?
Answer:
it doesnt add up. the question doesnt make sense.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
157
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the average score, add all individual scores and divide the sum by the number of individual scores.
She has 5 individual scores. Let's say her scores are A, B, C, D, and E.
average score = (A + B + C + D + E)/5
Now we plug in the average and the 4 known scores for A through D, and we solve for E.
average score = (A + B + C + D + E)/5
136.8 = (135 + 144 + 116 + 132 + E)/5
E = 157

A population of values has a normal distribution with μ= 106.9 and σ=14.5
You intend to draw a random sample of size n=20
What is the probability that a single randomly selected value is less than 109.8?
P(X < 109.8)
How do you the probability that a sample of size n= 20 is randomly selected with a mean less than 109.8?
P(M < 109.8)
Also, I have to round the answer to the 4th decimal place. How do I do that?
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the z-score.
z = (x − μ) / σ
z = (109.8 − 106.9) / 14.5
z = 0.2
Use a chart or calculator to find the probability.
P(Z < 0.2) = 0.5793
Find the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution.
μ = 106.9
σ = 14.5 / √20 = 3.242
Find the z-score.
z = (x − μ) / σ
z = (109.8 − 106.9) / 3.242
z = 0.894
Use a calculator to find the probability.
P(Z < 0.894) = 0.8145
If 5x + 2 =12x- 5, then x = ?
Answer:
x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
First, move all the variables to one side by subtracting 5x on both sides:
5x + 2 = 12x - 5
2 = 7x - 5
Add 5 to both sides:
7 = 7x
1 = x
Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 2 =12x- 5
Subtract 5x from each side
5x-5x + 2 =12x-5x- 5
2 = 7x-5
Add 5 to each side
2+5 = 7x-5+5
7 = 7x
Divide each side by 7
7/7 = 7x/7
1 =x

The mean salary of federal government employees on the General Schedule is $59,593. The average salary of 30 state employees who do similar work is $58,800 with \sigmaσσ= $1500. At the 0.01 level of significance, can it be concluded that state employees earn on average less than federal employees? What is the critical value? Round your answer to the nearest hundredths.
Answer:
Yes it can be concluded that state employees earn on average less than federal employees
The critical value is [tex]Z_{\alpha } = - 2.33[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The population mean is [tex]\mu = \$ 59593[/tex]
The sample size is n = 30
The sample mean is [tex]\= x = \$ 58800[/tex]
The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = \$ 1500[/tex]
The significance level is [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]
The null hypothesis is [tex]H_o : \mu = \$ 59593[/tex]
The alternative hypothesis is [tex]H_a : \mu < \$ 59593[/tex]
The critical value of [tex]\alpha[/tex] from the normal distribution table is [tex]Z_{\alpha } = - 2.33[/tex]
Generally the test statistics is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]t = \frac{\= x - \mu}{ \frac{ \sigma }{ \sqrt{n} } }[/tex]
=> [tex]t = \frac{ 58800 - 59593 }{ \frac{ 1500 }{ \sqrt{30} } }[/tex]
=> [tex]t = -2.896[/tex]
The p-value is obtained from the z-table
[tex]p-value = P(t < -2.896) = 0.0018898[/tex]
Since [tex]p-value < \alpha[/tex] , we reject the null hypothesis, hence it can be concluded that state employees earn on average less than federal employees

At a local high school, the student population is growing at 12% a year. If the original population was 242 students, how long will it take the population to reach 300 students? Round to the nearest tenth of a year.
Answer: 2 years
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponential growth function is given by :-
[tex]y=A(1+r)^x[/tex] (i)
, where A = initial value , r = rate of growth and x= time period.
As per given ,
A= 242
r= 12% = 0.12
To find : t when y= 300.
Put all the values in (i)
[tex]300=242(1+0.12)^x\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{300}{242}=(1.12)^x\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1.23967=(1.12)^x[/tex]
Taking log on both sides , we get
[tex]\log (1.2396) = t \log (1.12)\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.09328=t(0.049218)\\\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{0.09328}{0.049218}=\approx2[/tex]
hence, it will take 2 years.
