A scientist has acid solutions with concentrations of 4% and 15%. He wants to mix some of each solution to get 44 milliliters of solution with a 12% concentration. How many milliliters of each solution does he need to mix together?​

Answers

Let x and y be the amounts (in mL) of the 4% and 15% solutions, respectively, that the scientist needs to use.

He wants to end up with a 44 mL solution, so

x + y = 44 mL

Each milliliter of 4% solution contains 0.04 mL of acid, while each mL of 15% contains 0.15 mL of acid. The resulting solution should have a concentration of 12%, so that each mL of it contains 0.12 mL of acid. Then the solution will contain

0.04x + 0.15y = 0.12 × (44 mL) = 5.28 mL

of acid.

Solve for x and y. In the first equation, we have y = 44 mL - x, and substituting into the second equation gives

0.04x + 0.15 (44 mL - x) = 5.28 mL

0.04x + 6.6 mL - 0.15x = 5.28 mL

1.32 mL = 0.19x

x ≈ 6.95 mL

==>   y ≈ 37.05 mL

A market surveyor wishes to know how many energy drinks teenagers drink each week. They want to construct a 98% confidence interval for the mean and are assuming that the population standard deviation for the number of energy drinks consumed each week is 1.1. The study found that for a sample of 1027 teenagers the mean number of energy drinks consumed per week is 5.9. Construct the desired confidence interval. Round your answers to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

The 98% confidence interval for the mean number of energy drinks consumed per week by teenagers is (5.8, 6).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.01[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.01 = 0.99[/tex], so Z = 2.327.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

[tex]M = 2.327\frac{1.1}{\sqrt{1027}} = 0.1[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 5.9 - 0.1 = 5.8 drinks per week.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 5.9 + 0.1 = 6 drinks per week.

The 98% confidence interval for the mean number of energy drinks consumed per week by teenagers is (5.8, 6).

A canoeist traveling with the current traveled the 24 miles between two riverside campsites in 2 hours. The return trip against the current took 3 hours. Find the speed of the canoeist in still water and the speed of the current, both in miles per hour.

Answers

Answer:

Speed of canoiest is 10 miles/hour.

Speed of current is 2 miles/hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of canoiest is v and the speed of current is u.

distance = speed x time

24 = (v + u ) x 2

v + u = 12 ..... (1)

Now

24 = (v- u) x 3

v - u = 8 .... (2)

By solving (1) and (2)

2 v = 20

v = 10 miles/hour

u = 2 miles/hour

Find the value of y.

Answers

In the largest triangle, the missing side has length

√((11 + 5)² - x ²) = √(256 - x ²)

But it's also the hypotenuse of the triangle with side lengths 11 and y, so that its length can also be written as

√(11² + y ²) = √(121 + y ²)

so that

√(256 - x ²) = √(121 + y ²)

or, by taking the squares of both sides,

256 - x ² = 121 + y ²

y ² = 135 - x ²

In the smallest triangle, you have

5² + y ² = x ²   ==>   x ² = 25 + y ²

Substitute this into the previous equation and solve for y :

y ² = 135 - (25 + y ²)

y ² = 110 - y ²

2y ² = 110

y ² = 55

y = √55

A manager records the repair cost for 14 randomly selected dryers. A sample mean of $88.34 and standard deviation of $19.22 are subsequently computed. Determine the 90% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the dryers. Assume the population is approximately normal. Step 1 of 2 : Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

Hence the 90% confidence interval estimate of the population mean is [tex](79.24 , 97.44)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,  

Point estimate = sample mean = [tex]\bar x[/tex] = 88.34  

sample standard deviation = s = 19.22  

sample size = n = 14  

Degrees of freedom = df = n - 1 = 13  

Critical value =[tex]t\alpha /2,[/tex] df = 1.771

 

Margin of error

[tex]E = t\alpha/2,df \times (\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } )\\= 1.771 \times (19.22 / \sqrt 14)[/tex]  

Margin of error = E = 9.10  

The 90% confidence interval estimate of the population mean is,  

[tex]\bar x - E < \mu < \bar x + E\\\\88.34 - 9.10 < \mu < 88.34 + 9.10\\\\79.24 < \mu < 97.44\\(79.24 , 97.44)[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\sum_{n = 1} 2*(-5)^{n-1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

An arithmetic sequence is of the form:

[tex]A_n = A_{n-1} + d[/tex]

While a geometric sequence is of the form:

[tex]A_n = A_{n-1}*r[/tex]

notice that first, we have a change of sign in our sequence, so we already can discard the arithmetic sequence.

In fact, the pattern is kinda easy to see.

The first term is:

A₁ = 2

the second term is:

A₂ = -10

notice that:

A₂/A₍ = r = -10/2 = -5

The third term is:

A₃ = 50

the quotient between the third term and the second term is:

A₃/A₂ = 50/-10 = -5

Whit this we can already conclude that the n-th term of our sequence will be:

[tex]A_n = A_{n-1}*(-5)[/tex]

Then the summation will be something like:

[tex]\sum_{n = 1} A_n = A_1 + A_2 + A_3 + ... = 2 - 10 + 50 - ...[/tex]

We can write:

[tex]A_n = A_{n-1}*(-5) = (A_{n-2}*(-5))*(-5)) = A_1*(-5)^{n-1} = 2*(-5)^{n-1}[/tex]

Then the summation is just:

A triangular patch of grass in a park is bordered by walking paths. The longest path bordering the patch of grass measures 110 feet. The smallest path bordering the patch of grass measures 55 feet. The smallest angle formed by the paths bordering the patch of grass measures 29º.
What is the measure of the largest angle of the triangular patch of grass? Round your answer to the nearest
degree. Show all your work.

Answers

Answer:

76 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can draw a picture. Two of the sides are 110 feet and 55 feet. In a triangle, the smallest angle is opposite the smallest side and vice versa. Therefore, if I have my triangle arranged in the way shown, the smallest angle of 29 degrees will be opposite of the smallest side of 55 feet.

The law of sines states that a/sinA=b/sinB=c/sinC , with corresponding angles being opposite of its corresponding side. Therefore, we can say that

55 feet/ sin(29 degrees) = 110 / sin(largest angle).

If we say that the largest angle is equal to x, we can say

55 / sin(29°) = 110/sin(x)

multiply both sides by x to remove a denominator

55 * sin(x)/ sin(29°) = 110

multiply both sides by sin(29°) to remove the other denominator

55 * sin(x) = 110 * sin(29°)

divide both sides by 55 to isolate the sin(x)

sin(x) = 110 * sin(29°) / 55

For an angle, if sin(x) = y, we can say that arcsin(y) = x. Therefore, we can say

x = arcsin(110 * sin(29°)/55)

x ≈ 76 degrees

The triangles are similar.

3. 0.5478 = 54.78% probability that more than 180 passengers show up for the flight.

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].

Assume that there is a 0.905 probability that a passenger with a ticket will show up for the  flight.

This means that [tex]p = 0.905[/tex]

Also assume that the airline sells 200 tickets

This means that [tex]n = 200[/tex]

Question 1:

Exactly, so we can use the P(X = x) formula, to find P(X = 180).

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 180) = C_{200,180}.(0.905)^{180}.(0.095)^{20} = 0.0910[/tex]

0.0910 = 9.10% probability that exactly 180 passengers show up for the flight.

2. When 200 tickets are sold, calculate the probability that at most 180 passengers show up for the flight.

Now we have to use the approximation.

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 200*0.905 = 181[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{200*0.905*0.095} = 4.15[/tex]

Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X \leq 180 + 0.5) = P(X \leq 180.5)[/tex], which is the p-value of Z when X = 180.5. Thus

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{180.5 - 181}{4.15}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.12[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.12[/tex] has a p-value of 0.4522.

0.4522 = 45.22% probability that at most 180 passengers show up for the flight.

3. When 200 tickets are sold, calculate the probability that more than 180 passengers show up for the flight.

Complementary event with at most 180 passengers showing up, which means that the sum of these probabilities is 1. So

[tex]p + 0.4522 = 1[/tex]

[tex]p = 1 - 0.4522 = 0.5478[/tex]

0.5478 = 54.78% probability that more than 180 passengers show up for the flight.
