A truck can be rented from Company A for $120 a day plus $0.80 per mile. Company B charges $50 a day plus $0.90 per mile to rent the same truck. Find the number of miles in a day at which the rental costs for Company A and Company B are the same.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

700 miles driven in a day

Step-by-step explanation:

Create an equation to represent the situation, where x is the number of miles.

0.8x + 120 = 0.9x + 50

Solve for x:

120 = 0.1x + 50

70 = 0.1x

700 = x

So, the rental costs will be the same at 700 miles driven in a day.

The scores of a high school entrance exam are approximately normally distributed with a given mean Mu = 82.4 and standard deviation Sigma = 3.3. What percentage of the scores are between 75.8 and 89?

Answers

Notice that

75.8 = 82.4 - 6.6 = 82.4 - 2 × 3.3

89 = 82.4 + 6.6 = 82.4 + 2 × 3.3

Then the percentage of students with scores between 75.8 and 89 make up the part of the distribution that lies within 2 standard deviations of the mean. The empirical (68-95-99.7) rule says that approximately 95% of any distribution lies within this range.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data:

This year :

Mean = ΣX / n = 1825 / 25 = 73

The mode = 71 ( most frequently occurring)

Median = 1/2(n+1)th term = 1/(26) = 13th term

Median = 73

10 years ago :

51, 55, 56, 59, 65, 67, 68, 69, 69, 74, 75, 76, 77, 77, 79, 79, 79, 86, 87, 89, 90, 91, 91, 95, 98

Mean = ΣX / n = 1902 / 25 = 76.08

The mode = 79 ( most frequently occurring)

Median = 1/2(n+1)th term = 1/(26) = 13th term

Median = 77

According to the computed statistics, we can conclude that, today is worse than the past as the average score which is almost similar to the median value is higher 10 years ago and the modal score is better 10 years ago as well.

What is a combination?

A combination is an arrangement of a set of numbers from a total set where the order of the set is not relevant.

We have,

The total number of toppings = 10.

n = 10

The number of required toppings = 7.

r = 7

The formula for combination.

Part A: Determine the vertex. What does this calculation mean in the context of the problem? (5 points)

Part B: Determine the x-intercepts. What do these values mean in the context of the problem? (5 points)

(10 points)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The way to do this so as to streamline both the vertex and finding the zeros is to complete the square. That method will provide us with the vertex, and then we can continue on to factor from that form to find the zeros. Completing the square requires us to set the quadratic equal to 0 then move over the constant, giving us

[tex]-x^2+18x=72[/tex] The leading coefficient HAS to be a positive 1; ours is negative 1 so we factor out the negative to get:

[tex]-(x^2-18x)=72[/tex] Now we're ready to complete the square.

Take half the linear term, square it, and add it to both sides. Our linear term is 18 (from -18x; don't worry about the negative because squaring it makes it positive anyway). Half of 18 is 9, and 9 squared is 81.

BUT on the left we have that -1 sitting out front that refuses to be ignored. What we actually added on to the left side, inside the parenthesis, is -1(81) which is -81.   -81 is what we add to the right since that turns out to be what we added to the left:

[tex]-(x^2-18x+81)=72-81[/tex] and we clean that up.

The reason we complete the square is because when we simplify the left side, we end up with a perfect square binomial found from taking the square root of x-squared, the first sign we come to, then the square root of 81:

[tex]-(x-9)^2=-9[/tex].  Move the constant back over to get

[tex]-(x-9)^2+9=y[/tex] telling us that the vertex is (9, 9). In the context of the problem that means that the gym sells on average 9 memberships a day and the profit it makes on average per day is $9.

To factor, we will go back one step to

[tex]-(x-9)^2=-9[/tex] and begin by dividing both sides by -1 to get

[tex](x-9)^2=9[/tex] and undo the squaring by taking the square root of both sides to get

x - 9 = ±3 so

x = 9 + 3 and

x = 9 - 3 so

x = 6 and 12

Those are the zeros. This means that if they sell either 6 or 12 memberships they have a 0 profit. That may sound strange, but in business it does often work like that...selling too many of something makes your company lose money (this is often due to the cost required by you to produce or manufacture the product).

About 12.5% of restaurant bills are incorrect. If 200 bills are selected at ran- dom, find the probability that at least 22 will contain an error. Is this likely or unlikely to occur

Answers

Answer:

0.7734 = 77.34% probability that at least 22 will contain an error. Probability above 50%, which means that this is likely to occur.

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.

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 z-score 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 p-value, 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].

About 12.5% of restaurant bills are incorrect.

This means that [tex]p = 0.125[/tex]

200 bills are selected at random

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

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 200*0.125 = 25[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{200*0.125*0.875} = 4.677[/tex]

Find the probability that at least 22 will contain an error.

Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X \geq 22 - 0.5) = P(X \geq 21.5)[/tex], which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 21.5. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{21.5 - 25}{4.677}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.75[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.75[/tex] has a p-value of 0.2266.

1 - 0.2266 = 0.7734

0.7734 = 77.34% probability that at least 22 will contain an error. Probability above 50%, which means that this is likely to occur.

Answers

Hi there!

[tex]\large\boxed{(x -3)(x + 2)(x + 1)}[/tex]

We can use long division to find the other roots of p(x).

We know that x + 1 is a factor, so:

Set up:

Find how many times that the first term in the divisor goes into the first of the dividend. Subtract from like terms.

         x² - x - 6

x + 1 | x³ + 0x² - 7x - 6

         x³ + x²

         0 - x²     - 7x

            - x²      - x

             0        - 6x - 6

                        -6x - 6

                          0     0

Therefore, x² - x - 6 is another factor. We can factor this further:

Find two numbers that add up to -1 and multiply into -6. We get:

What is a polynomial?

A polynomial expression is an algebraic expression with variables and coefficients. Unknown variables are what they're termed. We can use addition, subtraction, and other mathematical operations. However, a variable is not divisible.

The expression is given below.

8x³ + 1 and 8x³ - 1³

(2x)³ + 1³ and (2x)³ - 1³

We know that the formula is given as,

a³ + b³ = (a + b) (a² – ab + b²)

a³ – b³ = (a – b) (a² + ab + b²)

Then the expression is written as,

(2x)³ + 1³ = (2x + 1) [(2x)² – 2x + 1²]

(2x)³ + 1³ = (2x + 1) (4x² – 2x + 1)

(2x)³ – 1³ = (2x – 1) [(2x)² + 2x + 1²]

(2x)³ – 1³ = (2x – 1) (4x² + 2x + 1)

The factors of the expression 8x³ + 1 and 8x³ - 1³ will be (2x + 1) & (4x² – 2x + 1) and (2x – 1) & (4x² + 2x + 1), respectively.

Answers

Considering the given function, we have that:

a) 28.31 years.

b) 0.3382 years a decade.

c) 2.6184.

What is the function?

The median age of the U.S. population in t decades after 1960 is:

f(t) = -0.2176t³ + 1.962t² - 2.833t + 29.4.

1970 is one decade after 1960, hence the median was:

f(1) = -0.2176 x 1³ + 1.962 x 1² - 2.833 x 1 + 29.4 = 28.31 years.

The rate of change was is the derivative when t = 1, hence:

f'(t) = -0.6528t² + 3.924t - 2.933

f'(1) = -0.6528 x 1² + 3.924 x 1 - 2.933 = 0.3382 years a decade.

The second derivative is:

f''(t) = -1.3056t + 3.924

Hence:

f''(1) = -1.3056 x 1 + 3.924 = 2.6184.
