Answer:
(a) 50%
(b) 47.5%
(c) 2.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the honest coin principle, if the random variable X denotes the number of heads in n tosses of an honest coin (n ≥ 30), then X has an approximately normal distribution with mean, [tex]\mu=\frac{n}{2}[/tex] and standard deviation, [tex]\sigma=\frac{\sqrt{n}}{2}[/tex].
Here the number of tosses is, n = 2500.
Since n is too large, i.e. n = 2500 > 30, the random variable X follows a normal distribution.
The mean and standard deviation are:
[tex]\mu=\frac{n}{2}=\frac{2500}{2}=1250\\\\\sigma=\frac{\sqrt{n}}{2}=\frac{\sqrt{2500}}{2}=25[/tex]
(a)
To not lose any money the even rolls has to be 1250 or more.
Since, μ = 1250 it implies that the 50th percentile is also 1250.
Thus, the probability that by the end of the evening you will not have lost any money is 50%.
(b)
If the number of "even rolls" is 1250, it implies that the percentile of 1250 is 50th.
Then for number of "even rolls" as 1300,
1300 = 1250 + 2 × 25
= μ + 2σ
Then P (μ + 2σ) for a normally distributed data is 0.975.
⇒ 1300 is at the 97.5th percentile.
Then the area between 1250 and 1300 is:
Area = 97.5% - 50%
= 47.5%
Thus, the probability that the number of "even rolls" will fall between 1250 and 1300 is 47.5%.
(c)
To win $100 or more the number of even rolls has to at least 1300.
From part (b) we now 1300 is the 97.5th percentile.
Then the probability that you will win $100 or more is:
P (Win $100 or more) = 100% - 97.5%
= 2.5%.
Thus, the probability that you will win $100 or more is 2.5%.
Translate this sentence into an equation. 43 is the sum of 11 and Carlos age. Use the variable c to represent Carlos age.
Answer:
c + 11 = 43
Step-by-step explanation:
C = Carlos age
11 = The number added
43 = The number added plus carlos' age
c +11 = 43
c = 43 - 11
c = 32
Carlos' age is 32 years.
Answer:
C+11=43
Step-by-step explanation:
C= Carlos age
11= added number
43= Carlos age +added number
C+11=43
C=43-11
C=32
Age of Carlos 32. :)
A ladder 10 ft long leans against a vertical wall. If the lower end is being moved away from the wall at the rate of 6 ft/sec, how fast is the height of the top changing (this will be a negative rate) when the lower end is 6 feet from the wall?
Answer:
-4.5ft per sec
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that vertical wall has a distance of y and the horizontal floor is x (6 ft).
This forms a triangle with the ladder as the hypothenus of length 10ft
We have dy/dt = 6ft per sec
According to Pythagoras law the relationship between x and y is
(x^2) + (y^2) = (hypothenus ^2) = 10^2
When we differentiate both sides of the equation
2x(dx/dt) + 2y(dy/dt) = 0
dy/dt = (x/y) * (dx/dt)
y= √(10^2) - (6^2) = 8ft
So dy/dt = (6/8)* (6/1)= -4.5 ft per sec
It is a negative rate

HCF of x minus 2 and X square + X - 6
Answer:
[tex] \boxed{ \sf{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{x - 2}}}}}[/tex]Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] \sf{x - 2} \: and \: { {x}^{2} + x - 6}[/tex]
To find the H.C.F of the algebraic expressions, they are to be factorised and a common factor or the product of common factors is obtained as their H.C.F
Let's solve
First expression = x - 2
Second expression = x + x - 6
Here, we have to find the two numbers which subtracts to 1 and multiplies to 6
= x + ( 3 - 2 ) x + 6
Distribute x through the parentheses
= x + 3x - 2x + 6
Factor out x from the expression
= x ( x + 3 ) - 2x + 6
Factor out -2 from the expression
= x ( x + 3 ) - 2 ( x + 3 )
Factor out x+3 from the expression
= ( x + 3 ) ( x - 2 )
Here, x - 2 is common in both expression.
Thus, H.C.F = x - 2
Hope I helped!
Best regards!!!
Answer:
x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
by factorization method
1) x - 2
2) x^2 + x - 6
by splitting method
x^2 + 3x - 2x - 6
taking separate common from the first two terms and last two terms
x(x + 3) - 2(x + 3)
now writing x+3 once and the other term to get the right answer
(x + 3)(x - 2)
in both parts just see the similar term and write it as HCF
HCF= x - 2
and the second method by which you can get this answer is division method

Solving: [tex]x + 1 > 0[/tex]
Subtract 1 from both sides
[tex]x + 1 - 1 > 0 - 1[/tex]
[tex]x > -1[/tex]
Solving: [tex]x - 2 > 0[/tex]
Add 2 to both sides
[tex]x - 2 +2 > 0 +2[/tex]
[tex]x > 2[/tex]
Solving: [tex]x - 3 > 0[/tex]
Add 3 to both sides
[tex]x - 3 +3> 0+3[/tex]
[tex]x > 3[/tex]
Hence, the solution to the inequality is
[tex]x > -1[/tex] or
[tex]x > 2[/tex] or

Question 1 (5 points)
The line segment AB with endpoints A(-3, 6) and B(9, 12) is dilated with a scale
factor 2/3 about the origin. Find the endpoints of the dilated line segment.
OA) (-2, 4), (6,8)
B) (2, 4). (6,8)
OC) (4, -2), (6,8)
OD) (-2,4), (8,6)
Answer: A) (-2, 4), (6,8)
Step-by-step explanation:
When a point (x,y) is dilated by a scale factor of k , then the new points is given by (kx,ky).
Given: The line segment AB with endpoints A(-3, 6) and B(9, 12) is dilated with a scale factor [tex]\dfrac23[/tex] about the origin.
Let A' and B' b the endpoints of the dilated line segment.
Then, [tex]A'(\dfrac{2}{3}(-3), \dfrac23(6))=A'(-2,4)[/tex]
[tex]B'(\dfrac{2}{3}(9), \dfrac23(12))=B'(6,8)[/tex]
Hence, the correct option is A) (-2, 4), (6,8)
the terms in this sequence increase by the same amount each time. _19_ _ 34_ a) work out the missing terms.
Answer:
The sequence is 14, 19, 24, 29, 34, 39.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call the common difference (the difference between two consecutive terms) as d. We see that the second term is 19 and the 5th term is 34 and since 5 - 2 = 3, we add d 3 times to 19 to get 34 so therefore:
19 + 3d = 34
3d = 15
d = 5 so the first term is 19 - 5 = 14, the third would be 19 + 5 = 24, the fourth would be 24 + 5 = 29 and the sixth would be 34 + 5 = 39.
Find all solutions to the equation. 2sin theta - squareroot 3 = 0
Write your answer in radians in terms of pi, and use the "or" button as necessary.
Example: theta = pi/5 + 2 k pi, k element Z or theta = pi/7 + k pi, k element Z
Answer:
[tex]\theta[/tex] =2mπ + π/3 for m ∈ Z.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation [tex]2sin\theta - \sqrt{3} = 0[/tex], we are to find all the values of [tex]\theta[/tex] that satisfies the equation.
[tex]2sin\theta - \sqrt{3} = 0\\\\2sin\theta = \sqrt{3} \\\\sin\theta = \sqrt{3}/2 \\\\\theta = sin{-1} \sqrt{3}/2 \\\\\theta = 60^0[/tex]
General solution for sin[tex]\theta[/tex] is [tex]\theta[/tex] = nπ + (-1)ⁿ ∝, where n ∈ Z.
If n is an even number say 2m, then [tex]\theta[/tex] = (2m)π + ∝ where ∝ = 60° = π/3
Hence, the general solution to the equation will be [tex]\theta[/tex] = 2mπ + π/3 for m ∈ Z.
for the functions f(x) = 4x^4+4x^3-8x^2-13x-5 and g(x) = x+1, find (f/g)(x) and (f/g)(2)
Answer:
(f/g)(x) = 4x³ - 8x - 5(f/g)(2) = 11Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 4x⁴ + 4x³ - 8x² - 13x - 5
g(x) = x + 1
To find (f/g)(2) first find (f/g)(x)
To find (f/g)(x) factorize f(x) first
That's
f(x) = 4x⁴ + 4x³ - 8x² - 13x - 5
f(x) = ( x + 1)( 4x³ - 8x - 5)
So we have
[tex] (f/g)(x) = \frac{( x + 1)( 4x³ - 8x - 5)}{x + 1} [/tex]
Simplify
We have
(f/g)(x) = 4x³ - 8x - 5To find (f/g)(2) substitute 2 into (f/g)(x)
That's
(f/g)(2) = 4(2)³ - 8(2) - 5
= 4(8) - 16 - 5
= 32 - 16 - 5
= 11
(f/g)(2) = 11Hope this helps you

These two triangles are congruent by the Hypotenuse-Leg Theorem.
Answer:
[tex] y = - 2 [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the 2 triangles are congruent based on the Hypotenuse-leg theorem, this implies that:
[tex] x - y = x + 2 [/tex] , and [tex] 2x - y = 4x + 2y [/tex]
Using the expression, [tex] x - y = x + 2 [/tex], solve for y:
[tex] x - y - x = x + 2 - x [/tex]
[tex] - y = 2 [/tex]

Kyle buys $30,000 of company XYZ's shares, at a share price of $50. A year later, XYZ's share price is $55, and Kyle sells all his shares. How many dollars did Kyle's investment gain
Answer:
$3,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the shares are $50 per share and that Kyle buys $30,000 worth of shares,
Number of shares bought = total price of shares ÷ price per share
= $30,000 ÷ $50
= 600 shares
We are also give that a year later, the shares are worth $55
Total value of shares 1 year later = Price per share one year later x number of shares
= $55 x 600
= $33,000
Hence the investment gained $33,000 - $30,000 = $3,000
Answer:
10%
Step-by-step explanation:
x - amount of shares bought
x * 50[$] = 30000[$]
x = 30000/50 = 600
if he bought 600 shares then he sold earning in total:
600 * 55[$] = 33000[$]
that means investmant gain can be calculate as:
return on investment = (gain from investment – cost of investment) / cost of investment
return on investment = (33000 - 30000) / 30000 = 3000/30000 =0.1 = 10%

Given that −4i is a zero, factor the following polynomial function completely. Use the Conjugate Roots Theorem, if applicable. f(x)=x4−2x3+x2−32x−240
Answer:
[tex]\large \boxed{\sf \bf \ \ f(x)=(x-4i)(x+4i)(x+3)(x-5) \ \ }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello, the Conjugate Roots Theorem states that if a complex number is a zero of real polynomial its conjugate is a zero too. It means that (x-4i)(x+4i) are factors of f(x).
[tex]\text{Meaning that } (x-4i)(x+4i) =x^2-(4i)^2=x^2+16 \text{ is a factor of f(x).}[/tex]
The coefficient of the leading term is 1 and the constant term is -240 = 16 * (-15), so we a re looking for a real number such that.
[tex]f(x)=x^4-2x^3+x^2-32x-240\\\\ =(x^2+16)(x^2+ax-15)\\\\ =x^4+ax^3-15x^2+16x^2+16ax-240[/tex]
We identify the coefficients for the like terms, it comes
a = -2 and 16a = -32 (which is equivalent). So, we can write in [tex]\mathbb{R}[/tex].
[tex]\\f(x)=(x^2+16)(x^2-2x-15)[/tex]
The sum of the zeroes is 2=5-3 and their product is -15=-3*5, so we can factorise by (x-5)(x+3), which gives.
[tex]f(x)=(x^2+16)(x^2-2x-15)\\\\=(x^2+16)(x^2+3x-5x-15)\\\\=(x^2+16)(x(x+3)-5(x+3))\\\\=\boxed{(x^2+16)(x+3)(x-5)}[/tex]
And we can write in [tex]\mathbb{C}[/tex]
[tex]f(x)=\boxed{(x-4i)(x+4i)(x+3)(x-5)}[/tex]

Answer:
1). m° = 56.1°
2). X= 91.8 mm
Step-by-step explanation:
For angle m°
Using the sine rule
15.1/sin m= 18.2/sin 90
But Sin 90= 1
15.1/sin m= 18.2
15.1= 18.2*sin m

Hope this helps
if u have question let me know in comments ^°^
"Julien is trying to determine his variable type in order to select the proper statistical tests. He is measuring the height of a part. What type of variable is this"
Answer:
Quantitative
Step-by-step explanation: Quantitative or numerical variable are statistical or measured variables which involves numbers. Numerical variables allows for mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction and so on to be performed in them. Quantitative variables include height, age, weight, population and other measured variable with have numerical attributes. They can be measured on either ordinal, ratio or interval scales. Hence, since Julien is trying to determine height, the variable is a quantitative or numeric variable.

1.5 1.8
1.7 1.9
1.6 1.6
1.4 1.7
1.7 1.8

n₁ = 10 n₂ = 10
To find:
coefficient of variation for each of the two samples
Solution:
The formula for calculating coefficient of variation of sample is:
Coefficient of Variation (CV) = (Standard Deviation / Mean) * 100%
Calculate Mean for Security Service Company data:
Mean = (Σ x₁) / n₁
= (1.5 + 1.7 + 1.6 + 1.4 + 1.7 + 1.5 + 1.8 + 1.4 + 1.4 + 1.5) / 10
= 15.5 / 10
Mean = 1.55
Calculate Standard Deviation for Security Service Company data:
Standard Deviation = √∑(x₁ - Mean)²/n₁-1
= √∑(1.5-1.55)² + (1.7-1.55)² + (1.6-1.55)² + (1.4-1.55)² + (1.7-1.55)² + (1.5-1.55)² + (1.8-1.55)² + (1.4-1.55)² + (1.4-1.55)² + (1.5-1.55)² / 10-1
=√∑ (−0.05)² + (0.15)² + (0.05)² + (−0.15)² + (0.15)² + (−0.05)² + (0.25)² + (−0.15)² + (−0.15)² + (−0.05)² / 10 - 1
= √∑0.0025 + 0.0225 + 0.0025 + 0.0225 + 0.0225 + 0.0025 + 0.0625 + 0.0225 + 0.0225 + 0.0025 / 9
= √0.185 / 9
= √0.020555555555556
= 0.14337208778404
= 0.143374
Standard Deviation = 0.143374
Coefficient of Variation for Security Service Company:
CV = (Standard Deviation / Mean) * 100%
= (0.143374 / 1.55) * 100
= 0.09249935 * 100
= 9.249935
CV = 9.2
CV = 9.2%
Calculate Mean for Other Companies data:
Mean = (Σ x₂) / n₂
= (1.8 + 1.9 + 1.6 + 1.7 + 1.8 + 1.9 + 1.6 + 1.5 + 1.7 + 1.8) / 10
= 17.3 / 10
Mean = 1.73
Calculate Standard Deviation for Other Companies data:
Standard Deviation = √∑(x₂-Mean)²/n₂-1
= √∑[(1.8-1.73)² + (1.9-1.73)² + (1.6-1.73)² + (1.7-1.73)² + (1.8-1.73)² + (1.9-1.73)² + (1.6-1.73)² + (1.5-1.73)² + (1.7-1.73)² + (1.8-1.73)²] / 10 - 1
= √∑ [(0.07)² + (0.17)² + (-0.13)² + (-0.03)² + (0.07)² + (0.17)² + (-0.13)² + (-0.23)² + (-0.03)² + (0.07)²] / 9
= √∑ (0.0049 + 0.0289 + 0.0169 + 0.0009 + 0.0049 + 0.0289 + 0.0169 + 0.0529 + 0.0009 + 0.0049) / 9
= √(0.161 / 9)
= √0.017888888888889
= 0.13374935098493
= 0.13375
Standard Deviation = 0.13375
Coefficient of Variation for Other Companies:
CV = (Standard Deviation / Mean) * 100%
= (0.13375 / 1.73) * 100
= 0.077312 * 100
= 7.7312
CV = 7.7
CV = 7.7%
Yes, the limited data listed here shows evidence of stealing by the security service company's employees because there is a significant difference in the variation.
