Answer:
The correct answer is B.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since a jar contains 4 pieces of gum, 7 pieces of candy, and 3 pieces of mint, and each time you draw out an item, you record the outcome and put the item back in the jar before making another draw, to determine what is the probability that you get exactly the sequence candy-mint-candy, in that order, the following calculation should be performed:
4 + 7 + 3 = 14
7/14 x 3/14 x 7/14 = X
0.5 x 0.2142 x 0.5 = X
0.053 = X
Therefore, the probability that the chosen sequence will be obtained is 0.0530, or 5.3%.

Algebraically show that each of the given combinations are equivalent to the given functions.
h(x) + j(x) is equivalent to k(x) given:
h(x) = 2x – 3;j(x) = - 4x + 6; k(x) = – 2x + 3
h(x) + j(2) =
Is h(x) + j(x) equivalent to k(x)? yes
Answer:
YES, they are equal
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the expressions
h(x) = 2x – 3;j(x) = - 4x + 6; k(x) = – 2x + 3
h(x) + j(x) = 2x – 3 + (-4x + 6)
h(x) + j(x) = 2x - 3 -4x + 6
h(x) + j(x) = 2x - 4x -3 + 6
h(x) + j(x) = -2x + 3 = k(x)
This shows that h(x) + j(x) = k(x)
Points A, B, C, and D lie on a line in that order. If AD/AC = 2/1 and AD/AB = 3/1, what is the value of AC/BD?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
It might be easier to start by expressing the ratios with AD as the denominator.
AD/AC = 2/1 ⇒ AC/AD = 1/2
AD/AB = 3/1 ⇒ AB/AD = 1/3
From the latter, we have ...
(AD -AB)/AD = 1 -1/3 = 2/3 = BD/AD
Then the desired ratio is ...
AC/BD = (AC/AD)/(BD/AD) = (1/2)/(2/3) = (3/6)/(4/6)
AC/BD = 3/4
what is the domain of f(x)
Answer:
Values of x
Step-by-step explanation:
The domain of a function is the set of all possible inputs for the function while the co-domain is the set of all possible outputs of the function.
In other words, domain is the set of x-values that you can put into any given equation while co-domain is the sex of f(x)-values that you get from substituting the values of x.

5. Lisa has a cubed-shaped box with a
volume of 512 cm. If Lisa fills the box
with 1-cubic centimeter blocks, how
many blocks make up each layer?
Answer:
64
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\sqrt[3]{512} = 8\\8x8 = 64[/tex]
Use the formula for the volume of a cube given by
V = s3
where s is the length of one of the sides. This formula yields the volume in cubic units.
Suppose a certain sugar cube has a side that measures 5/9 inches per side. What is the volume of this sugar cube (in in3)? Round the result to three decimal places.
Answer:
The volume of the cube is 0.171 cubic inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a cube given by :
[tex]V=s^3[/tex]
Where
s is the length of one of the sides.
We need to find the volume of the sugar cube if its side is 5/9 inches per side.
So,
[tex]V=(\dfrac{5}{9})^3\\\\V=0.171\ inches^3[/tex]
So, the volume of the cube is 0.171 cubic inches.

b) C and E
c) C, D and F
d) two
e) Equal
What is the answer??
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let AC = x
AB - AC = 4 cm
AB = 4 +x ----------------(I)
Pythagorean theorem
AB² + AC² =BC²
(4 + x)² + x² = 9²
Use the identity (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b² where a = 4 & b = x
4² +2*4*x +x² + x²= 81
16 + 8x + 2x² = 81
2x² + 8x + 16 - 81 = 0
2x² + 8x - 65= 0
a = 2 ; b = 8 ; c = -65
D = b² - 4ac
= 8² - 4*2*(-65)
= 64 + 520
D = 584
√D = √584 = 24.16
[tex]x=\frac{-b+\sqrt{D}}{2a} \ or \ x =\frac{-b-\sqrt{D}}{2a}\\\\x= \frac{-8+24.16}{2*2} \ or \ x = \frac{-8-24.6}{2*2}[/tex] {Ignore this as it is negative.}
x = 16.16/4
x = 4.04
AC = 4.04 Cm
AB = 4 + 4.04 = 8.04 cm
Area of triangle ABC = [tex]\frac{1}{2}* base * height[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{1}{2}*4.04 *8.04\\\\= 2.02 * 8.04[/tex]

it is estimated that 50% of emails are spam emails. Some software has been applied to filter these spam emails before they reach your inbox. A certain brand of software claims that it can detect 99% of spam emails and the probability for a flase positive is 5%. What is the probability that an email is detected as spam
Answer:
0.52 = 52% probability that an email is detected as spam.
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability that an email is detected as spam:
99% of 50%(are spam).
5% of 100 - 50 = 50%(false positives, that is, e-mails that are not spam but are detected as spams).
What is the probability that an email is detected as spam?
[tex]p = 0.99*0.5 + 0.05*0.5 = 0.52[/tex]
0.52 = 52% probability that an email is detected as spam.
A nut mixture has peanuts,almonds and cashews in the ratio 5:3:1. Question:How much nust mixture should Helen buy if she wants to ensure she has 750g of almonds in the mix? please help!!will submit it today....
Answer:
2250 g of nut mixture
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to use the ratio, we have to divide that 750 g by 3.
So 250 g multiplied by 5 is 1250. That's the amount of peanuts. Then just 1 for the cashews.
So, adding all of that up, the answer is 2250 g of nut mixture.
Answer:
1350g of nut mixture
Step-by-step explanation:
5:3:1 = 5x + 3x + x
5x = 750
x = 150
5x + 3x + x
= 5(150) + 3(150) + (150)
=750 + 450 + 150
=1350g

Night students :
n1 =30 x1= 3.34 s1 = 0.02
Day students:
n2 = 30 x2 = 3.32 s2 = 0.08
The test statistic :
(x1 - x2) / √(s1²/n1) + (s2²/n2)
T= (3.34 - 3.32) / √(0.02²/30) + (0.08²/30)
T = 0.02 / 0.0150554
Test statistic = 1.328
Using the conservative approach ;
df = Smaller of n1 - 1 or n2 - 1
df = 30 - 1 = 29
Pvalue(1.328, 29) = 0.097
At α = 0.10
Pvalue < α ; Hence, we reject H0 ; and conclude that there is significant evidence that GPA of night student is greater than GPA of day student
a. A CD is discounted by 10%, and then from the already discounted price, a further 15% discount is given. If the price now is $12.93, find the original price.
b. What is the total discount percent as compared to the original price?
Answer:
a. $16.90
b. 23.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
a. After the two discounts, the original price is multiplied by ...
(1 -10%)(1 -15%) = 0.90×0.85 = 0.765
Then the original price is found from ...
$12.93 = 0.765 × original price
original price = $12.93 / 0.765 ≈ $16.90

Answer: The median value of data set B is -5.5, which is less than the median value of 3.1 in dataset A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Order the dataset from least to greatest:
-38 → -13 → -9 → -2 → 14 → 28
Then find the values that lies in the middle:
-38 → -13 → -9 → -2 → 14 → 28
Since there are 2 values, find the average of those 2 values:
[tex]\frac{-9+(-2)}{2} =\frac{-11}{2} =-5.5[/tex]
The median value = -5.5.
The median value of data set B is -5.5, which is less than the median value of 3.1 in dataset A.

How long will it take her to travel 72 miles? use the unit ratio to solve the following problem.
Answer:
It will take Noshwa 3 hours and 36 minutes to travel 72 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Noshwa is completing the bike portion of a triathlon, assuming that she travels 40 miles in 2.5 hours, to determine how long will it take her to travel 72 miles, the following calculation must be performed:
40 = 2.5
72 = X
72 x 2.5 / 50 = X
180/50 = X
3.6 = X
1 = 60
0.6 = X
0.6 x 60 = X
36 = X
Therefore, it will take Noshwa 3 hours and 36 minutes to travel 72 miles.

1. Willow Brook National Bank operates a drive-up teller window that allows customers to complete bank transactions without getting out of their cars. On weekday mornings, arrivals to the drive-up teller window occur at random, with an arrival rate of 24 customers per hour or 0.4 customers per minute.
a. What is the mean or expected number of customers that will arrive in a five-minute period?
b. Assume that the Poisson probability distribution can be used to describe the arrival process. Use the arrival rate in part (a) and compute the probabilities that exactly 0, 1, 2, and 3 customers will arrive during a five-minute period.
c. Delays are expected if more than three customers arrive during any five-minute period. What is the probability that delays will occur?
2. In the Willow Brook National Bank waiting line system (see Problem 1), assume that the service times for the drive-up teller follow an exponential probability distribution with a service rate of 36 customers per hour, or 0.6 customers per minute. Use the exponential probability distribution to answer the following questions:
a. What is the probability that the service time is one minute or less?
b. What is the probability that the service time is two minutes or less?
c. What is the probability that the service time is more than two minutes?
Answer:
1.
a. 2
b. 0.1353 probability that exactly 0 customers will arrive during a five-minute period, 0.2707 that exactly 1 customer will arrive, 0.2707 that exactly 2 customers will arrive and 0.1805 that exactly 3 customers will arrive.
c. 0.1428 = 14.28% probability that delays will occur.
2.
a. 0.4512 = 45.12% probability that the service time is one minute or less.
b. 0.6988 = 69.88% probability that the service time is two minutes or less.
c. 0.3012 = 30.12% probability that the service time is more than two minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Poisson distribution:
In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
In which
x is the number of sucesses
e = 2.71828 is the Euler number
[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.
Exponential distribution:
The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:
[tex]f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}[/tex]
In which [tex]\mu = \frac{1}{m}[/tex] is the decay parameter.
The probability that x is lower or equal to a is given by:
[tex]P(X \leq x) = \int\limits^a_0 {f(x)} \, dx[/tex]
Which has the following solution:
[tex]P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}[/tex]
The probability of finding a value higher than x is:
[tex]P(X > x) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-\mu x}[/tex]
Question 1:
a. What is the mean or expected number of customers that will arrive in a five-minute period?
0.4 customers per minute, so for 5 minutes:
[tex]\mu = 0.4*5 = 2[/tex]
So 2 is the answer.
Question b:
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.1353[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.2707[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.2707[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.1805[/tex]
0.1353 probability that exactly 0 customers will arrive during a five-minute period, 0.2707 that exactly 1 customer will arrive, 0.2707 that exactly 2 customers will arrive and 0.1805 that exactly 3 customers will arrive.
Question c:
This is:
[tex]P(X > 3) = 1 - P(X \leq 3)[/tex]
In which:
[tex]P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)[/tex]
The values we have in item b, so:
[tex]P(X \leq 3) = 0.1353 + 0.2707 + 0.2707 + 0.1805 = 0.8572[/tex]
[tex]P(X > 3) = 1 - P(X \leq 3) = 1 - 0.8572 = 0.1428[/tex]
0.1428 = 14.28% probability that delays will occur.
Question 2:
[tex]\mu = 0.6[/tex]
a. What is the probability that the service time is one minute or less?
[tex]P(X \leq 1) = 1 - e^{-0.6} = 0.4512[/tex]
0.4512 = 45.12% probability that the service time is one minute or less.
b. What is the probability that the service time is two minutes or less?
[tex]P(X \leq 2) = 1 - e^{-0.6(2)} = 1 - e^{-1.2} = 0.6988[/tex]
0.6988 = 69.88% probability that the service time is two minutes or less.
c. What is the probability that the service time is more than two minutes?
[tex]P(X > 2) = e^{-1.2} = 0.3012[/tex]
0.3012 = 30.12% probability that the service time is more than two minutes.
