Given tan∅=4/3 and π< ∅< (3π)/2; find cos2∅ a. -24/25 b. 24/25 c. -24/7 d. -7/25

For each polynomial, determine the degree and write the polynomial in descending order. a. –4x^2 – 12 + 11x^4 b. 2x^5 + 14 – 3x^4 + 7x + 3x^3

(b) suppose that consolidated power decides to use a level of significance of α = .05, and suppose a random sample of 100 temperature readings is obtained. if the sample mean of the 100 temperature readings is x⎯⎯ = 60.990, test h0 versus ha and determine whether the power plant should be shut down and the cooling system repaired. perform the hypothesis test by using a critical value and a p-value. assume σ = 5. (round your z to 2 decimal places and p-value to 4 decimal places.)
