(b) can we claim a significant reduction in the rate of intrusion attempts? the number of intrusion attempts each day has approximately normal distribution. compute p-values and state your conclusions under the assumption of equal variances and without it. does this assumption make a difference?

The standard error of the sample mean is 5.33. The answer is option (C).

The standard error (SE) of a statistic is the standard deviation of its sampling distribution or an estimate of that standard deviation

The standard error of the sample mean can be calculated using the formula:

Standard error = standard deviation / square root of sample size

In this case, the standard deviation is 80 and the sample size is 225. Substituting these values in the formula, we get:

Standard error = 80 / √225 = 80 / 15 = 5.33

a) the vertices are (9, 0) and (-3, 0).

the foci are (3 ± 2√10, 0)

the asymptotes are y = ±x/3 - 1

b) the equation of the ellipse is x² + (y-√5/2)² = 5/4

a)  To find the foci, vertices, and asymptotes of the ellipse (x - 3)² - 9y² = 36, we can first divide both sides by 36 to get:

[tex]\frac{(x-3)^2}{36} - \frac{y^2}{4}=1[/tex]

Therefore, the center of the ellipse is (3, 0).

The semi-major axis length is √36 = 6, and the semi-minor axis length is √4 = 2.

Therefore, the vertices are (3 ± 6, 0) = (9, 0) and (-3, 0).

The foci are located at a distance of √(6²-2²) = 2√10 from the center along the major axis. Therefore, the foci are (3 ± 2√10, 0) and the equation of the major axis is x = 3.

To find the asymptotes, we will use the formula:

[tex]\frac{y-k}{b} = \pm\frac{x-h}{a}[/tex]

where (h, k) is the center of the ellipse, a is the length of the semi-major axis, and b is the length of the semi-minor axis. Therefore, the equations of the asymptotes are:

(y-0)/2 = ±(x-3)/6

y = ±x/3 - 1

b) To find the equation of the ellipse with foci (0, 2) and semi-major axis length 3, we can first find the center of the ellipse. Since the foci are located on the y-axis, the center must also be located on the y-axis. Therefore, the center is (0, c), where c is the distance between the center and one of the foci.

Since the semi-major axis length is 3, the distance between the center and one of the vertices is 3. Therefore, we have:

c² + (3/2)² = (3/2+2)²

c² = 5/4

Therefore, the center of the ellipse is (0, √5/2). The distance between the center and one of the foci is √5/2 - 2. Therefore, the distance between the center and one of the vertices is √{(√5/2)² - (√5/2 - 2)²} = √5.

Therefore, the semi-minor axis length is √5/2, and the equation of the ellipse is:

[tex]\frac{x^2}{\frac{5}{4} } +\frac{(y-\frac{\sqrt{5}}{2} )^2}{\frac{5}{4} } =1[/tex]

Given that the pendulum is 70 cm long and its period is 1.68 s, we can use the formula for the period of a simple pendulum to find the value of g at the location of the pendulum:

T = 2π√(L/g)

Where T is the period (1.68 s), L is the length of the pendulum (0.7 m), and g is the acceleration due to gravity. We can rearrange the formula to solve for g:

g = 4π²L/T²

Substituting the given values:

g = 4π²(0.7 m) / (1.68 s)²

The Cartesian equation is x^2 + y^2 = (4/y)^2, and the resulting curve is a circle centered at the origin with radius r = 16/y for all values of y except y = 0.

To convert the polar equation r sin(θ) = 4 into Cartesian coordinates, we can use the identities x = r cos(θ) and y = r sin(θ).

Substituting r sin(θ) = 4 into the second equation gives y = 4/r cos(θ). We can now substitute r^2 = x^2 + y^2 into this equation to get:

y = 4/√(x^2 + y^2) * x/√(x^2 + y^2)

Simplifying this equation gives:

x^2 + y^2 = (4/y)^2

This is the equation of a circle centered at the origin with radius r = 16/y. However, we need to be careful because the original polar equation is only defined for θ values where sin(θ) ≠ 0, or in other words, θ ≠ kπ for any integer k.

When we look at the Cartesian equation x^2 + y^2 = (4/y)^2, we can see that it is undefined at y = 0. However, we know that the original polar equation is defined for all values of θ except θ = kπ. Therefore, we can say that the resulting curve is a circle centered at the origin with radius r = 16/y for all values of y except y = 0.

In summary, the Cartesian equation is x^2 + y^2 = (4/y)^2, and the resulting curve is a circle centered at the origin with radius r = 16/y for all values of y except y = 0.

The solution of the given initial value problem is y(r) = (1/9) cos(3r) + (1/9) sin(3r) - (1/9) sin(3r) = (1/9) cos(3r)

We are given the initial value problem:

d^2y/dr^2 + 9y = sin(3r), y(0) = y'(0) = 0 ---------(1)

We can write the characteristic equation for the given differential equation as:

r^2 + 9 = 0

The roots of the characteristic equation are: r = 0 ± 3i

So, the general solution of the homogeneous differential equation d^2y/dr^2 + 9y = 0 is:

y_h(r) = c1 cos(3r) + c2 sin(3r) ------------(2)

Now, we will find the particular solution of the given differential equation. We use the method of undetermined coefficients and assume the particular solution to be of the form:

y_p(r) = A sin(3r) + B cos(3r)

Differentiating y_p(r) w.r.t r, we get:

y_p'(r) = 3A cos(3r) - 3B sin(3r)

Differentiating y_p'(r) w.r.t r, we get:

y_p''(r) = -9A sin(3r) - 9B cos(3r)

Substituting these values in the differential equation (1), we get:

-9A sin(3r) - 9B cos(3r) + 9(A sin(3r) + B cos(3r)) = sin(3r)

Simplifying the above equation, we get:

-9A sin(3r) + 9B cos(3r) = sin(3r)

Comparing the coefficients of sin(3r) and cos(3r) on both sides, we get:

-9A = 1 and 9B = 0

Solving the above equations, we get:

A = -(1/9) and B = 0

So, the particular solution of the given differential equation is:

y_p(r) = -(1/9) sin(3r)

Therefore, the general solution of the given differential equation is:

y(r) = y_h(r) + y_p(r) = c1 cos(3r) + c2 sin(3r) - (1/9) sin(3r) ------------(3)

Now, we will apply the initial conditions to find the values of c1 and c2.

Given that y(0) = 0. Substituting r = 0 in equation (3), we get:

c1 - (1/9) = 0

So, c1 = 1/9

Differentiating equation (3) w.r.t r, we get:

y'(r) = -3c1 sin(3r) + 3c2 cos(3r) - (1/3) cos(3r)

Given that y'(0) = 0. Substituting r = 0 in the above equation, we get:

3c2 = (1/3)

So, c2 = (1/9)

Therefore, the solution of the given initial value problem is:

y(r) = (1/9) cos(3r) + (1/9) sin(3r) - (1/9) sin(3r) = (1/9) cos(3r)

(c) The sketch of the position vector r(t) and the tangent vector r'(t) for the given value of t is illustrated below.

To find r'(t), we need to take the derivative of r(t) with respect to t. Since the coefficients of i and j are functions of t, we need to use the chain rule. The result is r'(t) = 4 cos(t)i + 2 sin(t)j. This vector represents the tangent vector to the curve at the point r(t) for any given value of t.

Now, let's sketch the curve together with the position vector r(t) and the tangent vector r'(t) for t = 37/4.

To do this, we can plot the point (4sin(37/4), -2cos(37/4)) on the xy-plane and draw a vector from the origin to this point, which represents r(37/4). We can also draw a tangent vector to the curve at this point, which represents r'(37/4).

Thus, S recursively as follows:
Base case: 2 is in S.
Recursive step: If n is in S, then n2 and 2n are also in S.

A recursive definition for the set of all positive integers that have a 2 as at least one of its digits can be created as follows. Let S be the set of all positive integers that have a 2 as at least one of its digits.

Base case: The number 2 is in the set S.

Recursive step: For any n in S, we can obtain a new number in S by adding 2 as a digit to the left of n, or by appending 2 to the right of n. This means that any number in S can be obtained by starting with 2 and applying the recursive step a finite number of times.

Base case: 2 is in S.
Recursive step: If n is in S, then n2 and 2n are also in S.

The level curve of the function f(x,y)=-2x^3 + 5x^2 - 11x + 8/ln(y)=30 is the set of points in the (x,y) plane where the function takes a constant value of 30. To find this curve, we can start by setting the given function equal to 30:

-2x^3 + 5x^2 - 11x + 8/ln(y) = 30
We can then solve for y in terms of x:
ln(y) = 8/(30 + 2x^3 - 5x^2 + 11x)
y = e^(8/(30 + 2x^3 - 5x^2 + 11x))

To find the gradient vector of the function f(x, y) = x^2y at the point (1, -2), we need to compute the partial derivatives of f with respect to x and y and evaluate them at the given point. The partial derivative of f with respect to x is obtained by treating y as a constant and differentiating x^2 with respect to x, giving 2xy.

The partial derivative of f with respect to y is obtained by treating x as a constant and differentiating xy with respect to y, giving x^2. Therefore, the gradient vector of f at (1, -2) is given by:∇f(1, -2) = [2xy, x^2] evaluated at (x, y) = (1, -2)
∇f(1, -2) = [2(1)(-2), 1^2] = [-4, 1]
So, the gradient vector of f at the point (1, -2) is [-4, 1]. This vector points in the direction of the steepest increase in f at (1, -2), and its magnitude gives the rate of change of f in that direction. Specifically, if we move a small distance in the direction of the gradient vector, the value of f will increase by approximately 4 units for every unit of distance traveled. Similarly, if we move in the opposite direction of the gradient vector, the value of f will decrease by approximately 4 units for every unit of distance traveled.

The generators of the cyclic group G = (g) are {2, 3}.

In a cyclic group, the generator is an element that, when repeatedly combined with itself, generates all the other elements of the group. To find the generators of the cyclic group G = (g), we need to determine the elements that satisfy the given conditions.

From the given conditions, we can deduce that gl = 5 (mod 6) and g^l = 10 (mod 16).

Which elements satisfy the conditions for generating G?

To find the generators, we need to examine the possible values for g that satisfy the given conditions.

For condition (a), gl = 5 (mod 6), we can observe that the possible values for g are 2 and 3. Both of these values, when raised to any positive integer power, will yield remainders of 5 when divided by 6.

For condition (c), lgl = 16, we see that the only possible value for g is 2. When 2 is raised to any positive integer power, the resulting element will have a residue of 1 (mod 16).

From these analyses, we conclude that the generators of the cyclic group G = (g) are {2, 3}.

The concept of generators in cyclic groups is fundamental to group theory. A generator is an element that, through repeated multiplication with itself, generates all other elements of the group. In the case of the cyclic group G = (g), the elements 2 and 3 satisfy the given conditions and serve as generators. These generators allow us to generate all other elements in G by taking powers of the generators. The concept of generators is extensively utilized in various areas of mathematics, cryptography, and computer science.

a) The determinant of A is non-zero, the vectors v1, v2, and v3 are linearly independent and do not lie in a plane in R3.

b) The determinant of B is non-zero, the vectors v1, v2, and v3 are linearly independent and do not lie in a plane in R3.

To determine whether three vectors lie in a plane in R3, we need to check if they are linearly dependent or independent. If they are linearly dependent, then they lie in a plane; if they are linearly independent, then they do not lie in a plane.

(a) To check if v1, v2, and v3 lie in a plane, we need to see if they are linearly dependent or independent. One way to do this is to find the determinant of the matrix A whose columns are the three vectors:

| 2  6  2 |

|−2  1  0 |

| 0  4 −4 |

We can expand this determinant along the first row to get:

det(A) = 2 × | 1  0 |

       - (-2) × | 6  4 |

       + 0 × | 1 −4 |

       = 2(1 × 4 - 0 × (-4)) - (-2)(6 × 4 - 1 × 1) + 0

       = 8 + 47 + 0

       = 55

(b) To check if v1, v2, and v3 lie in a plane, we need to see if they are linearly dependent or independent. One way to do this is to find the determinant of the matrix B whose columns are the three vectors:

|−6  3  4 |

| 7  2 −1 |

| 2  4  2 |

We can expand this determinant along the third column to get:

det(B) = 4 × |−6  3 |

       - (-1) × | 7  2 |

       + 2 × | 2  4 |

       = 4(-6 × 2 - 3 × 7) - (-1)(7 × 4 - 2 × 2) + 2(2 × 2 - 4 × 3)

       = -96 + 30 + (-8)

       = -74

This statement may be true for certain matrices, but it is not true in general.

To answer this question, we first need to understand what it means for a set of vectors to be linearly independent. A set of vectors is linearly independent if no vector in the set can be expressed as a linear combination of the others. In other words, the only way to get the zero vector as a linear combination of the vectors in the set is to set all the coefficients to zero.
Now, let's consider the statement that if the columns of a square matrix A are linearly independent, then so are the rows of A^3. To disprove this statement, we just need to find a counterexample - a square matrix A whose columns are linearly independent, but whose rows are not linearly independent in A^3.
Consider the following matrix A:
A = [ 1 0 0
     0 1 0
     0 0 0 ]
The columns of A are clearly linearly independent, since there are no non-zero coefficients that can be used to get the zero vector. However, if we calculate A^3, we get:
A^3 = [ 1 0 0
       0 1 0
       0 0 0 ]
The rows of A^3 are not linearly independent, since the third row is all zeros and can be expressed as a linear combination of the first two rows.
Therefore, we have disproved the statement that if the columns of a square matrix A are linearly independent, then so are the rows of A^3. It is important to note that this statement may be true for certain matrices, but it is not true in general.

The Taylor polynomials t2(x) and t3(x) centered at x=4 for f(x)=ln(x+1) are:

t2(x) = ln(5) + (x-4)/(5) - ((x-4)^2)/(50)

t3(x) = ln(5) + (x-4)/(5) - ((x-4)^2)/(50) + ((x-4)^3)/(150)

The general formula for the Taylor polynomial of degree n centered at a for a function f(x) is:

t_n(x) = f(a) + f'(a)(x-a)/1! + f''(a)(x-a)^2/2! + ... + f^n(a)(x-a)^n/n!

To find the Taylor polynomials t2(x) and t3(x) for f(x) = ln(x+1) centered at x=4, we need to evaluate the function and its derivatives at x=4.

f(4) = ln(5)

f'(x) = 1/(x+1), so f'(4) = 1/5

f''(x) = -1/(x+1)^2, so f''(4) = -1/25

f'''(x) = 2/(x+1)^3, so f'''(4) = 2/125

Using these values, we can plug them into the general formula and simplify to get:

t2(x) = ln(5) + (x-4)/(5) - ((x-4)^2)/(50)

t3(x) = ln(5) + (x-4)/(5) - ((x-4)^2)/(50) + ((x-4)^3)/(150)

Therefore, the Taylor polynomials t2(x) and t3(x) centered at x=4 for f(x)=ln(x+1) are ln(5) + (x-4)/(5) - ((x-4)^2)/(50) and ln(5) + (x-4)/(5) - ((x-4)^2)/(50) + ((x-4)^3)/(150), respectively.
