Answer:
(a)
[tex]Q_1 = 14[/tex]
[tex]Median = 15[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = 20[/tex]
(b) [tex]IQR = 6[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]14\ 14\ 15\ 26\ 13\ 16\ 21\ 20\ 15\ 13[/tex]
[tex]n = 10[/tex]
Solving (a): Median and the quartiles
Start by sorting the data
[tex]Sorted: 13\ 13\ 14\ 14\ 15\ 15\ 16\ 20\ 21\ 26[/tex]
The median position is:
[tex]Median = \frac{n + 1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Median = \frac{10 + 1}{2} = \frac{11}{2} = 5.5th[/tex]
This implies that the median is the average of the 5th and the 6th data;
So;
[tex]Median = \frac{15+15}{2} = \frac{30}{2} = 15[/tex]
Split the dataset into two halves to get the quartiles
[tex]Lower: 13\ 13\ 14\ 14\ 15\[/tex]
[tex]Upper: 15\ 16\ 20\ 21\ 26[/tex]
The quartiles are the middle items of each half.
So:
[tex]Lower: 13\ 13\ 14\ 14\ 15\[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = 14[/tex] ---- 14 is the middle item
[tex]Upper: 15\ 16\ 20\ 21\ 26[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = 20[/tex] ---- 20 is the middle item
Solving (b): The interquartile range (IQR)
This is calculated as:
[tex]IQR = Q_3 - Q_1[/tex]
[tex]IQR = 20 - 14[/tex]
[tex]IQR = 6[/tex]
Solving (c): Incomplete details

Agan Interior Design provides home and office decorating assistance to its customers. In normal operation, an average of 2.5 customers arrive each hour. One design consultant is available to answer customer questions and make product recommendations. The consultant averages 10 minutes with each customer. Compute the operating characteristics of the customer waiting line, assuming Poisson arrivals and exponential service times. Round your answers to four decimal places. Do not round intermediate calculations.
Answer:
the operating characteristics have been solved below
Step-by-step explanation:
we have an average of 10 minutes per customers
μ = mean service rate = 60/10 = 6 customers in one hr
the average number of customers that are waiting in line
mean arrival λ = 2.5
μ = 6
[tex]Lq = \frac{2.5^{2} }{6(6-2.5)} \\[/tex]
= 6.25/21
= 0.2976
we calculate the average number of customers that are in the system
[tex]L=Lq+\frac{2.5}{6}[/tex]
= 0.2976+0.4167
= 0.7143
we find the average time that a customer spends in waiting
[tex]Wq=\frac{0.2976}{2.5}[/tex]
= 0.1190 hours
when converted to minutes = 0.1190*60 = 7.1424 minutes
[tex]0.1190+\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
=0.2857
probability that arriving customers would wait for the service
= 2.5÷6 = 0.4167
Consider the following game: You reach into a jar of money, and select a single bill at random to keep. There are 9 five-dollar bills, 5 ten-dollar bills, and 3 twenty-dollar bills in the jar. What should the cost of this game be in order for the game to be fair
Answer:
[tex]E(x)=\$9.118[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Available bills
[tex]\$5=N0 9\\\\\$10=N0 5[/tex]
[tex]\$20=N0 3[/tex]
Therefore
Total Bills
[tex]n=5+9+3[/tex]
[tex]n=17[/tex]
Probability of selecting each bill
[tex]For\$5[/tex]
[tex]P(\$5)=\frac{9}{17}[/tex]
[tex]For\$10[/tex]
[tex]P(\$10)=\frac{5}{17}[/tex]
[tex]For\$20[/tex]
[tex]P(\$20)=\frac{3}{17}[/tex]
Generally the equation for Expected winning is mathematically given by
[tex]E(x)=\sum(X)*P(X)[/tex]
[tex]E(x)=5*\frac{9}{17}+10*\frac{5}{17}+20*\frac{3}{17}[/tex]
[tex]E(x)=\$9.118[/tex]
A box contains 5 white balls, 3 black balls, and 2 red balls.A-What is the probability of drawing a white ball?B- How many white balls must be added to the box so that the probability of drawing a white ball is 3/4?C-How many black balls must be added to the original assortment so that the probability of drawing a white ball is 1/4?
Answer:
[tex](a)\ P(White) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
(b) 10 additional white balls
(c) 10 additional black balls
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]White = 5[/tex]
[tex]Black =3[/tex]
[tex]Red = 2[/tex]
Solving (a): P(White)
This is calculated as:
[tex]P(White) = \frac{White}{Total}[/tex]
[tex]P(White) = \frac{5}{5+3+2}[/tex]
[tex]P(White) = \frac{5}{10}[/tex]
[tex]P(White) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Solving (b): Additional white balls, if [tex]P(White) = \frac{3}{4}[/tex]
Let the additional white balls be x
So:
[tex]P(White) = \frac{White+x}{Total+x}[/tex]
This gives:
[tex]\frac{3}{4} = \frac{5+x}{10+x}[/tex]
Cross multiply
[tex]30+3x = 20 + 4x[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]4x - 3x = 30 - 20[/tex]
[tex]x = 10[/tex]
Hence, 10 additional white balls must be added
Solving (c): Additional black balls, if [tex]P(White) = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]
Let the additional black balls be x
So:
[tex]P(White) = \frac{White}{Total+x}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\frac{1}{4} = \frac{5}{10+x}[/tex]
Cross multiply
[tex]10+x = 5 * 4[/tex]
[tex]10+x = 20[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]x = 20 -10[/tex]
[tex]x = 10[/tex]
Hence, 10 additional black balls must be added

Question: Your friend claims that the only solution to the equation sin(x)=1 is x=90 degrees. Is your friend correct? If there are more solutions, explain how to determine additional solutions.
......hope it helps......
Answer:
yes,.to obtain sinx as 1 the angle must be 90degrees
so the answer is correct
but there are more solutions like when the cosine angle is 45 the answer is 1
and when x is 450 still sinx = 1..that is to say sin450= 1

a pie chart is divided into four sectors in fig. 12.42. Each sector represents a percentage of the whole. The two larger sectors are equal and each represents x%. What is the angle subtended by one of those larger sectors ?
Answer:
Angle formed by the sector measuring x% will be 126°.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, sum of all sectors formed in a circle is 100%.
By adding the measures of all the sectors,
x + x + 21 + 9 = 100
2x + 30 = 100
2x = 70
x = 35%
Now we know sum of all the central angles formed at the center of a circle = 360°
Therefore, angle formed by x% = 360° × 35%
= [tex]\frac{360\times 35}{100}[/tex]
= 126°

Step-by-step explanation:
An electronic system contains three cooling components that operate independently. The probability of each component's failure is 0.05. The system will overheat if and only if at least two components fail. Calculate the probability that the system will overheat.
Answer:
[tex]Pr= 0.00725[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]p = 0.05[/tex] ---- probability that each component fails
[tex]n = 3[/tex]
Required
[tex]P(System\ Overheats)[/tex]
We understand that the system will overheat if at least 2 component fails; Assume the components are: x, y and z
The events that the system will overheat are: xyz', xy'z, x'yz and xyz
Where ' means that the component did not fail, and the probability is 1 - p (i.e. complement rule)
So, we have:
[tex]xyz' \to 0.05 * 0.05 * (1 - 0.05) = 0.002375[/tex]
[tex]xy'z \to 0.05 * (1 - 0.05)* 0.05 = 0.002375[/tex]
[tex]x'yz \to (1 - 0.05)* 0.05 * 0.05 = 0.002375[/tex]
[tex]xyz \to 0.05 * 0.05 * 0.05 =0.000125[/tex]
So, the required probability is:
[tex]Pr= 0.002375 +0.002375 +0.002375 + 0.000125[/tex]
[tex]Pr= 0.00725[/tex]
A rectangular vegetable garden will have a width that is 3 feet less than the length, and an area of 54square feet. If x represents the length, then the length can be found by solving the equation: x(x-3)=54 What is the length, x, of the garden? The length is blank feet.
Answer: 9 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
From the information given, we have already been given the equation which is x(x-3)=54. Therefore we will find the value of x which will be:
x(x-3)=54
x² - 3x - 54
x² - 9x + 6x - 54
x(x - 9) + 6(x - 9)
Therefore,
(x - 9) = 0
x = 0 + 9
x = 9
The length is 9 feet
The width will be:
x - 3 = 9 - 3 = 6 feet

State sales tax y is directly proportional to retail price x. An item that sells for 156 dollars has a sales tax of 14.42 dollars. Find a mathematical model that gives the amount of sales tax y in terms of the retail price x .
What is the sales tax on a 320 dollars purchase.
Answer:
The sales tax on a 320 dollars purchase is of $29.6.
Step-by-step explanation:
State sales tax y is directly proportional to retail price x.
This means that:
[tex]y = cx[/tex]
In which c is the constant of proportionality.
An item that sells for 156 dollars has a sales tax of 14.42 dollars.
This means that [tex]x = 156, y = 14.42[/tex]. We use this to find c. So
[tex]y = cx[/tex]
[tex]14.42 = 156c[/tex]
[tex]c = \frac{14.42}{156}[/tex]
[tex]c = 0.0924[/tex]
Then
[tex]y = 0.0924x[/tex]
What is the sales tax on a 320 dollars purchase?
y when [tex]x = 320[/tex]. So
[tex]y = 0.0924(320) = 29.6[/tex]
The sales tax on a 320 dollars purchase is of $29.6.

hope this helps
Answer:
[tex]p=2\\q=4[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
One is given the following system of equations,
[tex]3p + 4q = 22\\\\10p + 12q = 68[/tex]
The fastest method to solve a system of equations is the method of elimination. This process is manipulating one of the equations, by multiplying or diving it by a value, such that one of the coefficients variables in the equation is the additive inverse of the like term in the other equation. That way, when one adds the equations, one of the variables cancels out. Then one can solve for the other term. Finally, one can back sovle by substituting the value of the solved variable into one of the equations and simplifying to find the value of the other variable.
[tex]3p + 4q = 22\\\\10p + 12q = 68[/tex]
Manipulate the first equation so that the variable (q) cancels
[tex](3p + 4q = 22) *(-3)\\\\10p + 12q = 68[/tex]
[tex]-9p + -12q = -66\\\\10p + 12q = 68[/tex]
Add the equations,
[tex]-9p + -12q = -66\\\\10p + 12q = 68[/tex]
[tex](10p-9p)+(-12q+12q)=(-66+68)[/tex]
Simplify,
[tex](10p-9p)+(-12q+12q)=(-66+68)[/tex]
[tex]p=2[/tex]
Backsovle for the variable (p). Substitute the values of (p) into one of the original equations. Then simplify and use inverse operations to solve for the variable (q).
[tex]3p+4q=22[/tex]
Substitute,
[tex]3(2)+4q=22[/tex]
Simplify,
[tex]3(2)+4q=22[/tex]
[tex]6+4q=22[/tex]
Inverse operations,
[tex]6+4q=22[/tex]
[tex]4q=16\\q=4[/tex]
