As a reward for saving his daughter from pirates, the King has given you the opportunity to win treasures hidden inside two of three trunks. The trunk that does not hold any treasure is empty. To win, you must select the correct trunks. The inscriptions on Trunks 1, 2, and 3 are "This trunk is empty," "There is a treasure in Trunk 1," and "There is a treasure in Trunk 2." For each of the following statements, determine whether the Queen who never lies could state this, and if so, which two trunks contain the treasures.(a) The Queen can state, "All the inscriptions are false."If the Queen can state this, in which of the trunks are the treasures hidden?(b) The Queen can state, "Exactly one of the inscriptions is true."If the Queen can state this, in which of the trunks are the treasures hidden?(c) The Queen can state, "Exactly two of the inscriptions are true."If the Queen can state this, in which of the trunks are the treasures hidden?(d) The Queen can state, "All the three inscriptions are true."If the Queen can state this, in which of the trunks are the treasures hidden?

The average mark of c
andidates in an aptitude test was 128.5 with a standard deviation of

8.2. Three scores extracted from the test are; 148, 102, 152. What is the average of the

extracted scores that are extreme values (outliers)?​

Answers

Answer:

The average of the extracted scores that are extreme values (outliers) = 102

Step-by-step explanation:

With the logical assumption that the population size is large enough, for a normal distribution,

68% of the data lies within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the data lies between 2 standard deviations of the mean.

99.7% of the data lies within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

So, the outliers for a normal distribution are usually beyond 3 standard deviations of the mean.

The mean = 128.5

Standard deviation = 8.2

The range of scores within 3 standard deviations of the mean is obtainable thus

(Mean ± 3standard deviations)

3 × standard deviations = 3 × 8.2 = 24.6

(128.5 ± 24.6) = (103.9, 153.1)

The 3 extracted scores are 148, 102 and 152. The only extreme value of these 3 extracted scores is 102. The two other scores are within the range of 3 standard deviations of the mean.

Hence, the average of the extracted scores that are extreme values (outliers) = 102

Help ! I don’t know if I have it correct. Can somebody check it out. I got 81/65536 which I know has to be incorrect.

Answers

Answer:  9

Work Shown:

In the numerator, we have 2^2*x^2, which is really just 4x^2. Replace x with 3 and we get 4*x^2 = 4*3^2 = 36.

For the denominator, xy^2, we get

x*y^2 = 3*2^2 = 12

So far we have,

[tex]\frac{2^2x^2}{xy^2} = \frac{4x^2}{xy^2} = \frac{36}{12} = 3\\\\\text{ or simply} \\\\\frac{2^2x^2}{xy^2} = 3[/tex]

when x = 3 and y = 2.

Square both sides to end up with...

[tex]\frac{2^2x^2}{xy^2} = 3\\\\\left(\frac{2^2x^2}{xy^2}\right)^2 = 3^2\\\\\left(\frac{2^2x^2}{xy^2}\right)^2 = 9[/tex]

what is the sum of this arithmetic series? 586+564+542+...+212

Answers

Answer:

Basically it's asking for the sum of 212 + 216 + 220 + ..... 586

Each number is 22 more than the previous one.

Therefore the sum will be 212 + (212+22) + (212+22*2) + (212+22*3)

the amount of numbers from 212 through 586 is 18.

Therefore we will need 212 plus 212 * 17 = 3,816 *******************

We will also need all those 22's.

We must add 22 *1 plus 22*2 plus 22*3 ..... plus 22*17

Which equals 22 + 44 + 66 + 88 ... 374

Which totals 3,366 *****************

So, we total 3,816 + 3,366 which equals 7,182

The height of a triangle is 18 inches. Find the length of the base if the area of the triangle is 63 square inches

Answers

Answer:

7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is found by

A = 1/2 bh

We know the height is 18 and the area is 63

63 = 1/2 (b)(18)

63 = 9b

Divide each side by 9

63/9 = 9b/9

7 = b

The base is 7 inches

Answer:

7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = ½ base × height

63 = ½ × base × 18

63 = 9 × base

base = 7 inches

Fie triunghiul ABC isoscel cu AB=AC=3 cm daca mediatoarea laturi AC intersectat cu latura BC in M si perimetrul thriunghiului AMC=12 cm.Calculati MC

Answers

Answer:

MC = 4.5cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Question:

Let the isosceles triangle ABC with AB = AC = 3 cm. if the mediator of the sides AC intersects with the side BC in M ​​and the perimeter of the triangle AMC = 12 cm. Calculate MC.

Solution:

Find attached the diagram used in solving the question.

Given:

∆ABC is an isosceles triangle (two sides and angles are equal)

AB = BC = 3cm

Perimeter of ∆AMC = 12cm

From the diagram, M cuts AC at the the middle.

AD = CD = AC/2 = 3/2

Perimeter of Right angled ∆AMD = AM + AD + MD

= 3/2 + AM +MD

Perimeter of Right angled ∆CMD =CM + CD + MD

= 3/2 + CM +MD

Right angled ∆AMD = Right angled ∆CMD

CM = AM

Therefore ∆AMC is an isosceles triangle

CM = AM (two sides of an isosceles triangle are equal)

Let CM = AM = x

Perimeter of ∆AMC = AM + CM + AC

12 = x + x + 3

12 = 2x + 3

2x = 12-3

2x = 9

x = 9/2 = 4.5

CM = AM = 4.5cm

MC = CM = 4.5cm

Answer:

D. 96

F. 32

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality 3x ≥ 96, means that x and 3 must be multiplied to get a product that is greater than 96.  So to figure this out, you must plug in the numbers given for x, like so:

3x ≥ 96

A. 3(31) ≥ 96

     93 ≥ 96                            This is incorrect since 93 is not greater than 96

A tip that makes this easier is that, you can see that 31 multiplied by 3 is 93, which is only a couple numbers off 96, so all numbers after 31 will result in a product greater than 96. For example:

D. 3(96) ≥ 96

    288 ≥ 96                             This inequality is correct

F. 3(32) ≥ 96

   96 ≥ 96                        

The inequality sign states that the number must be either greater or equal to 96, which it is.

The initial number of bacteria in the dish was 1,150. The amount of bacteria doubles at the end of each hour. Write a function b(t) that would represent this relationship after t hours. Use this function to determine how many bacteria would be in the dish after 10 hours and write it only as a number without units.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]B(t) = 1150*(2)^{t}[/tex]

After 10 hours: 1,177,600

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of bacteria after b hours is given by the following equation:

[tex]B(t) = B(0)(1+r)^{t}[/tex]

In which B(0) is the initial number of bacteria and r is the rate that it increases.

The initial number of bacteria in the dish was 1,150. The amount of bacteria doubles at the end of each hour.

This means that [tex]B(0) = 1150, B(1) = 2*1150[/tex]

So

[tex]B(t) = B(0)(1+r)^{t}[/tex]

[tex]2*1150 = 1150(1+r)^{1}[/tex]

[tex]1 + r = 2[/tex]

[tex]r = 1[/tex]

So

[tex]B(t) = 1150*(2)^{t}[/tex]

After 10 hours:

[tex]B(10) = 1150*(2)^{10} = 1177600[/tex]

1,177,600 bacteria after 10 hours.

4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

There are so many points on the graph whose coordinates are impossible to estimate. Look for two "nice" points--points with integer coordinates. The line passes through (-2, 0) and (3, 4).

Slope = rise / run. It's the ratio of vertical change to horizontal change as you move from one point on the line to another.

Moving from (-2, 0) to (3, 4), the vertical change is 4 - 0 = 4.

The horizontal change is 3 - (-2) = 5.

The slope is 4/5

Answers

Answer:

Hence, Stacy will spin 6,  8.33 times out of her n = 50 attempts.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider a success to get a 6. In this case, note that the probability of having a 6 in one spin is 1/6. We can consider the number of 6's in 50 spins to be a binomial random variable. Then, let X to be the number of trials we get a 6 out of 50 trials. Then, we have the following model.

We will estimate the number of times that she spins a 6 as the expected value of this random variable.

Recall that if we have X as a binomial random variable of n trials with a probability of success of p, then it's expected value is np.

Then , in this case, with n=50 and p=1/6 we expect to have  number of times of having a 6, which is 8.33.
