My next challenge was that I wanted to make things out of metal, so I became interested in how to use a lathe, a milling machine, and so on. I went to buy this new equipment I thought I'd need and met a man who had a machine shop of his own who was about to retire and move to Florida. He allowed me to visit him after school and on weekends to observe how he used all his tools. I was hooked. When he retired I bought not only all his big equipment but all his little toolboxes as well – they were treasures!

Answer 1

Answer

The thing that supports his opinion

that making things out of metal was enjoyable was the fact that he has so resouses and materta to make these things. In the text, it says that "He allowed me to visit him after school and on weekends to observe how he used all his tools." This means that his learning how to make things out of metal meaning the more he learns is the more it becomes fun.

Yeahh

Evidence: "He allowed me to visit him after school and on weekends to observe how he used all his tools."

"When he retired I bought not only all his big equipment but all his little toolboxes as well – they were treasures!"

" I was hooked."

Answer 2

Ans: Kamen found making things out of metal so enjoyable that he learned how to use a lathe and a milling machine. He visited a machine shop owner after school to observe how he used tools. Then he bought the shop owner's tools after he retired.

ANother Ans would be: Because of the.

Ans No.2 actually works as that's what I used.

In order to determine the average price of hotel rooms in Atlanta, a sample of 64 hotels was selected. It was determined that the average price of the rooms in the sample was $112. The population standard deviation is known to be $16. Use a .05 level of significance and determine whether or not the average room price is significantly different from $108.50.

Answers

Answer:

The decision rule is  

Fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is  

There is no sufficient evidence to show that the average room price is significantly different from $108.50

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is  n = 64

    The average price is  [tex]\= x = \$ 112[/tex]

    The population standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = \$ 16[/tex]

     The level of significance is  [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

    The population mean is  [tex]\mu = \$ 108.5[/tex]

The null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o : \mu = 108.50[/tex]

The alternative hypothesis is  [tex]H_a : \mu \ne 108.50[/tex]

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

       [tex]z = \frac{\= x - \mu }{ \frac{ \sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]

=>    [tex]z = \frac{112 - 108.50 }{ \frac{ 16}{\sqrt{64} } }[/tex]  

=>    [tex]z = 1.75[/tex]

From the z table  the area under the normal curve to the left corresponding to  1.75  is  

       [tex]P( Z > 1.75) = 0.040059[/tex]

Generally  p-value is mathematically represented as

        [tex]p-value = 2 * P( Z > 1.75)[/tex]

=>     [tex]p-value = 2 * 0.040059[/tex]

=>     [tex]p-value = 0.08012[/tex]

From the values obtained we see that  [tex]p-value > \alpha[/tex] hence

The decision rule is  

Fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is  

There is no sufficient evidence to show that the average room price is significantly different from $108.50

θ = cos-1 (38/47)

Step-by-step explanation:

sin θ = [tex]\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = \frac{27}{47}\\[/tex]

θ = sin-1 (27/47)

cos θ = [tex]\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{38}{47}[/tex]

Select the four points that appear on the line with the given slope and y-intercept
Slope: 2/3 y-intercept = -9

A- (2,3)
B- (0,-9)
C- (1,9)
D-(9,-3)
E-(6,-5)
F-(3,-7)

Answers

Answer:

The four points that appear on the line are:

B- (0,-9)

D-(9,-3)

E-(6,-5)

F-(3,-7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

Being m the slope and b the y-intercept.

We are given the values of m=2/3 and b=-9, so the equation of the line is:

y = 2/3 x - 9

We must select from the list below the points that lie on the line. To test each point, we substitute the value of x and calculate the value of y. If it matches the given y-coordinate, then the point lies on the line.

A- (2,3)

Calculate: y = 2/3 (2) - 9 = -23/3.

This point is not on the line because -23/3 ≠ 3

B- (0,-9)

Calculate: y = 2/3 (0) - 9 = -9.

This point is on the line because -9 = -9

C- (1,9)

Calculate: y = 2/3 (1) - 9 = -25/3.

This point is not on the line, because -25/3 ≠ 3

D-(9,-3)

Calculate: y = 2/3 (9) - 9 = -3.

This point is on the line because -3 = -3

E-(6,-5)

Calculate: y = 2/3 (6) - 9 = -5.

This point is on the line because -5 = -5

F-(3,-7)

Calculate: y = 2/3 (3) - 9 = -7.

This point is on the line because -7 = -7

The four points that appear on the line are:

B- (0,-9)

D-(9,-3)

E-(6,-5)

F-(3,-7)

Which expression is equal to zero? 9 + (– 27) ÷ (– 3)
– 27 ÷ (– 3) – 9
– 27 ÷ 3 – 9
27 ÷ 3 + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the image attached;

From the image;

opposite side = 16

Hypotenuse = 21

Angle of inclination = x

Using the SOH identity

sinx = opposite/hypotenuse

sin x = 16/21

sin x = 0.7619

x = arcsin 0.7619

x = 49.6° (to the nearest tenth of a degree)

Star Trek has the Borg. The Borg assimilate other races, and control them using a hive mind. The Christian bible describes Gods spirit as living within the believer, that the Christians body becomes the temple of the Holy Spirit. Christians are influenced in a special way by God. But unlike the Borg, Christ does not control Christians, He does not take over their mind or will, although he fills them. The job of the Holy Spirit is to instruct Christian, to teach, and correct them, protect them from harm, but he never controls them.We only have a limited time on this earth, and before we die we must receive Gods Spirit.

Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.God is not like the Borg, he will not force you to do anything, but he does expect us to be open to his leading in life.
