A study of traffic violations on a busy highway finds that the number of tickets for speeding written by officers tends to decrease on rainy days. A police sergeant explains that driver behavior could be a confounding variable.

Which statement best explains the confounding variable in this study?

On sunny days, more tickets for speeding are written than on rainy days.
Officers are less likely to want to leave their police cars to write tickets on rainy days.
Drivers may drive more carefully on rainy days, so the number of speeding tickets decreases.
Drivers are more likely to speed on rainy days to get to their destination faster.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The statement which explains the given options will be Drivers may drive more carefully on rainy days, so the number of speeding tickets decreases. Hence, option C is correct.

What are traffic rules?

According to the Traffic Ordinance, disobeying a rule or following a piece of advice inside the Road Users' Code is not in and of itself an offense, but any such rejection may be looked into in any deliberations (as to if civil or criminal, including litigation for an offense underneath the Road Traffic Ordinance), and may also be relied upon for establishing or negating any liability.

However, it should be emphasized that several of the guidelines in the Car Drivers' Code exactly mirror the law, and anyone who violates these guidelines may be breaking the law.

It means that on rainy days, divers drive very carefully as compared to other days.

expand and simplify (2x + 1)(x + 3)

answer : [tex]2x^2+7x+3[/tex]

-

explanation : expand the polynomial using the FOIL method.

-

FOIL : a technique for distributing two binomials. the letters FOIL stand for first, outer, inner, last. first means multiply the terms which occur first in each binomial, outer means multiply the outermost terms in the product, inner means multiply the innermost terms, and last means multiply the terms which occur last in each binomial.

-

step 1 : multiply each term in the first parentheses by each term in the second parentheses (FOIL)

ex : [tex]2x * x+2x * 3+x+3[/tex]

step 2 : calculate the product

ex: [tex]2x^2+2x * 3+x+3[/tex]

step 3 : calculate the product

Answer:

  θ = 60°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle is more than 45° and less than 90°. The only viable choice is ...

  θ = 60°

We can only read the x-coordinate of the point on the terminal ray. It is 1/2, which is the cosine of 60°. The angle must be 60°.

Which is the solution for the system of equations? Y = 2x-3
Y = -x
A. (1, -1)
B. No solution
C. (-1, 1)
D. (-1, -1)

Answers

Answer:

(1,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \large{ \begin{cases} y = 2x - 3 \\ y = - x \end{cases}}[/tex]

Since both are y-isolated equation. We can combine both.

[tex] \large{2x - 3 = - x}[/tex]

Since we want to solve for x-term, we need to isolate x-term.

So we move from -x which is the right side to x.

[tex] \large{2x - 3 + x = 0} \\ \large{3x - 3 = 0} \\ \large{3x = 3} \\ \large{x = 1}[/tex]

But we are not done yet. Solving system of equations, you must solve for y-term as well. (Because we have to answer in ordered pairs which are (x, y))

Substitute x = 1 in any given equations but I will substitute x = 1 in y = -x

[tex] \large{y = - x} \\ \large{y = - 1}[/tex]

Since we have got y-value. Therefore the answer is (1,-1)

Answers

Answer:

y=-32, 0, -16, -4, 16

Step-by-step explanation:

y=4(-6)-8= -32

y=4(2)-8 = 0

y=4(-2)-8 = -16

y=4(1) -8 = -4

y=4(6) -8= 16

For the given equation of the line, the complete table is attached below.

Use the concept of the equation of line defined as:

A line has length but no width, making it a one-dimensional figure. A line is made up of a collection of points that can be stretched indefinitely in opposing directions. Two points in a two-dimensional plane determine it.

The given equation of a line is,

y = 4x - x

To complete the table:

Put x = -6 in this equation,

y =  (-4)(-6) - 8

y = 16

Put x = 2 in the equation,

y =  (-4)(2) - 8

y = -16

Put x = -2 in the equation,

y =  (-4)(-2) - 8

y = 0

Put x = 1 in the equation,

y =  (-4)(1) - 8

y = -12

Put x = 6 in the equation,

y =  (-4)(6) - 8

y = -32

The complete table is attached below.

Find the Area of the figure below, composed of a rectangle with a semicircle
removed from it. Round to the nearest tenths place.

Answers

Answer:

Area of the figure = 25.7 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the given figure = Area of rectangle ABCD - Area of the semicircle with diameter CD

Area of the rectangle ABCD = Length × Width

                                               = BC × AB

                                               = 8 × 4

                                                = 32 units²

Area of the semicircle = [tex]\frac{1}{2}\pi r^{2}[/tex]

Here, r = radius of the semicircle

r = [tex]\frac{\text{Diameter}}{2}[/tex]

r = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(CD)[/tex]

r = [tex]\frac{4}{2}[/tex]

r = 2 units

Therefore, area of the semicircle = [tex]\frac{1}{2}\pi (2)^2[/tex]

                                                       = 2π

                                                       = 6.28 units²

Area of the given figure = 32 - 6.28

                                         = 25.72 units²

                                         ≈ 25.7 units²

A researcher wishes to test whether the mean of a normally distributed population is greater than 1.06 at the 5% significance level. Based upon 22 independent observations, she observes a sample mean of 1.77 and a sample standard deviation of 0.84. Determine the critical value of the test rounded to the nearest hundredth. (Rounding counts!).

Answers

Answer:

t- critical value =1.721

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Sample size =n=22

Degree of freedom = sample size -1 = 22-1 =21

The significance level is 5%. This indicates that the test is right tailed.

The alpha value = 0.05

For given right tailed test, with value of alpha = 0.05 and degree of freedom = 21, the  t- critical value =1.721

Find the argument of the complex number z=1+iv3

Answers

Given:

The complex number is:

[tex]z=1+i\sqrt{3}[/tex]

To find:

The argument of the given complex number.

Solution:

If a complex number is [tex]z=x+iy[/tex], then the argument of the complex number is:

[tex]\theta=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{y}{x}[/tex]

We have,

[tex]z=1+i\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Here, [tex]x=1[/tex] and [tex]y=\sqrt{3}[/tex]. So, the argument of the given complex number is:

[tex]\theta =\tan^{-1}\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{1}[/tex]

[tex]\theta =\tan^{-1}\sqrt{3}[/tex]

[tex]\theta =\tan^{-1}\left(\tan \dfrac{\pi}{3}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\theta =\dfrac{\pi}{3}[/tex]

Therefore, the argument of the given complex number is [tex]\theta =\dfrac{\pi}{3}[/tex].

[tex]S_{10[/tex]

This is calculated as:

[tex]S_n = \frac{a(r^n - 1)}{r - 1}[/tex]

[tex]S_{10} = \frac{6 * (1024- 1)}{9}[/tex]
