In a sample of 171 students at an Australian university that introduced the use of plagiarism-detection software in a number of courses, 58 students indicated a belief that such software unfairly targets students (鈥淪tudent and Staff Perceptions of the Effectiveness of Plagiarism Detection Software,鈥 Australian J. of Educ. Tech., 2008: 222鈥240). Does this suggest that a majority of students at the university do not share this belief? Test appropriate hypotheses.
In Problems \(19\) and \(20\) verify that the indicated expression is an implicit solution of the given first-order differential equation. Find atleast one explicit solution \(y = \phi (x)\) in each case. Use a graphing utility to obtain the graph of an explicit solution. Give an interval \(I\) of definition of each solution \(\phi \).
In Problems 21鈥24 verify that the indicated family of functions is a solution of the given differential equation. Assume an appropriate interval I of definition for each solution.
\(\frac{{{d^2}y}}{{d{x^2}}} - 4\frac{{dy}}{{dx}} + 4y = 0;y = {c_1}{e^{2x}} + {c_2}x{e^{2x}}\)
In Problems \(9\] and \(10\] determine whether the given first-order differential equation is linear in the indicated dependent variable by matching it with the first differential equation given in \((7)\].
\(u dv + (v + uv - u{e^u})du = 0\]in \(v\]; in \(u\].
Verify that the piecewise-defined function \(y = \left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}{r}}{ - {x^2},}&{x < 0}\\{{x^2},}&{x \ge 0}\end{array}} \right.\) is a solution of the differential equation \(xy' - 2y = 0\) on \(( - \infty ,\infty )\).
