Corinne solved the equation below:

5x = 95
5x − 5 = 95 − 5
x = 90

Is Corinne's solution correct? If the solution is incorrect, explain why it is incorrect and show the correct steps to solve the equation.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The solution is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

5x = 95

We need to do the opposite

We are multiplying x by 5 so we need to divide by 5

5x/5 = 95/5

x = 19

Answer 2

Corinne's solution is incorrect.

The mistake occurred when she subtracted 5 from both sides of the equation.

We have,

To solve the equation correctly, we need to isolate the variable x. Here are the correct steps:

Starting with the equation:

5x = 95

To isolate x, we divide both sides of the equation by 5:

(5x) / 5 = 95 / 5

x = 19

Thus,

The correct solution to the equation is x = 19.

Answers

Answer:

The right answer is:

(a) -10.67

(b) 0.7986

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

According to the question,

X                          P(X)                  X.P(X)                 X2.P(X)

12130                  0.002               24.26                 294274

-35                      0.998               -34.93                1222.55      

Now,

[tex]\Sigma x.P(x) = -10.67[/tex]

or,

[tex]\Sigma x^2.P(x) = 295496.35[/tex]

hence,

The mean will be:

[tex]\Sigma x.P(x) = -10.67[/tex]

(b)

According to the question,

n = 12

p = 0.125

q = 1 - p

  = 0.875

Now,

⇒ [tex]P(X=x) = \binom{n}{x} p^x q^{n-x}[/tex]

By substituting the values, we get

⇒ [tex]P(X \geq 1)=1-(\binom{12}{0} 0.125^0. 0.875^{12-0})[/tex]

⇒                  [tex]=1-(1 (0.125^0) (0.875^{12}))[/tex]

⇒                  [tex]=1-(1(1.0)(0.2014))[/tex]

⇒                  [tex]=1-(0.2014)[/tex]

For a certain company, the cost for producing x items is 40x+300 and the revenue for selling x items is 80x−0.5x2. The profit that the company makes is how much it takes in (revenue) minus how much it spends (cost). In economic models, one typically assumes that a company wants to maximize its profit, or at least wants to make a profit!



Part a: Set up an expression for the profit from producing and selling x items. We assume that the company sells all of the items that it produces. (Hint: it is a quadratic polynomial.)



Part b: Find two values of x that will create a profit of $300.



The field below accepts a list of numbers or formulas separated by semicolons (e.g. 2;4;6 or x+1;x−1). The order of the list does not matter. To enter a−−√, type sqrt(a).

Part c: Is it possible for the company to make a profit of $15,000?

Answers

Answer:

The profit is maximum when x = 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost function, C = 40 x + 300

Revenue function, R = 80 x - 0.5 x^2

The profit function is

[tex]P = R - C\\\\P = 80 x - 0.5 x^2 - 40 x - 300\\\\P = - 0.5 x^2 + 40 x - 300\\\\\frac{dP}{dx} = - x + 40\\\\So, \frac{dP}{dx} = 0\\\\-x + 40 = 0 \\\\x = 40[/tex]

So, the profit is maximum when x = 40 .

An experiment consists of tossing a pair of balanced, six-sided dice. (a) Use the combinatorial theorems to determine the number of sample points in the sample space S. 36 Correct: Your answer is correct. sample points (b) Find the probability that the sum of the numbers appearing on the dice is equal to 6. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

Sample space = 36

P(sum of 6) = 5/36

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of faces on a dice = 6

The sample space, for a toss of 2 dice ; (Number of faces)^number of dice

Sample space = 6^2 = 6*6 = 36

Sum of numbers appearing on the dice = 6

The sum of 6 from the roll of two dice has 5 different outcomes ; Hence, required outcome = 5

Total possible outcomes = sample space = 36

Probability, P = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P = 5 / 36

Probabilities are used to determine the chances of events

The given parameters are:

[tex]n=6[/tex] --- the faces of a six-sided die

[tex]r = 2[/tex] -- the number of dice

(a) The number of sample points

This is calculated as:

[tex]Sample = n^r[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Sample = 6^2[/tex]

Evaluate the exponent

[tex]Sample = 36[/tex]

Hence, the number of sample points is 36

(b) The probability that the sum of 6

See attachment for the sample space of the sum of two dice.

From the sample space, there are 5 outcomes where the sum is 6.

So, the probability is:

[tex]Pr = \frac{5}{36}[/tex] --- where 36 represents the number of sample points

Divide 5 by 36

[tex]Pr = 0.1389[/tex]

Hence, the probability that the sum of the numbers appearing on the dice is equal to 6 is 0.1389

14. Divide and write the fraction or mixed number in its simplest form:1/4÷3/8

Answers

Answer:

1/4 ÷ 3/8 = 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

When dividing fractions, you have to take the reciprocal of the second fraction, then multiply from there. The reciprocal of a fraction is basically flipped. So then, 1/4 ÷ 3/8 becomes 1/4 x 3/8. Multiplying fractions should be pretty straight forward as you just need to multiply numerator (top number of a fraction) with numerator and vice versa for the denominators (bottom number of a fraction).

So then you get: (1 x 8)/(3 x 4) = 8/12. Then you just simplify it by dividing the numerator and denominator by their greatest possible factor, which in this case is 4. So then, (8 ÷ 4)/(12 ÷ 4) = 2/3.

Dodi bicycles 14mph with no wind. Against the wind, Dodi bikes 10mi in the same time it takes to bike 20mi with the wind. What is the speed of the wind?

Answers

Answer:

4.67 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed with no wind = 14 mph

Let wind speed = w mph

Thus;

Speed with wind = 14 + w

Speed against the wind = 14 - w

Now, we are told that against the wind he bikes 10 miles.

Thus, from; time = distance/speed, we have;

Time = 10/(14 - w)

Also, we are told he biked 20 miles with the wind. Thus;

Time = 20/(14 + w)

We are told the times he used in both cases are the same.

Thus;

10/(14 - w) = 20/(14 + w)

Divide both sides by 10 to get;

1/(14 - w) = 2/(14 + w)

Cross multiply to get:

1(14 + w) = 2(14 - w)

14 + w = 28 - 2w

w + 2w = 28 - 14

3w = 14

w = 14/3

w = 4.67 mph

A savings and loan association needs information concerning the checking account balances of its local customers. A random sample of 14 accounts was checked and yielded a mean balance of $664.14 and a standard deviation of $279.29. Find a 99% confidence interval for the true mean checking account balance for local customers.

Answers

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the true mean checking account balance for local customers is ($439.29, $888.99).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 14 - 1 = 13

99% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 13 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.995[/tex]. So we have T = 3.0123

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 3.0123\frac{279.29}{\sqrt{14}} = 224.85[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 664.14 - 224.85 = $439.29

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 664.14 + 224.85 = $888.99.

The 99% confidence interval for the true mean checking account balance for local customers is ($439.29, $888.99).

Answer:

According to the proposed interrogate, as well as the graph provided, the correct answers to such are identified as B. Y = -2x + 5 and C. 2x + y = 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate such, a comprehension of linear Cartesian data is required:

Slope = rise/run. If there is a negative rise, the direction of the line is proportional to the left-hand side as it exponentially grows or augments in units.

Y-intercept: The peculiar point in which the linear data observed intersects the y-axis.

X-intercept: The peculiar point in which the linear data observed intersects the x-axis.

Since this is a negative linear, all negative slopes apply.

The interrogate states, “Check all that apply.” Thus, there may be more than one correct answer, shall such be disseminated.

A. Cannot be the answer as the line should have been a horizontal line contained within quadrants I and II on the Cartesian Plane.

B. Contains a negative slope, thus is disclosed as a correct answer.

C. This configuration is denoted in “Standard Form” or “General Form”. To convert this to “Slope-Intercept Form” the following must be executed mathematically:

2x + y = 4

Y = -2x + 4 <== Slope-Intercept Form (Contains a negative slope, thus considered a correct answer.

D. Likewise, this configuration is denoted in “Standard Form” or “General Form”. To convert this to “Slope-Intercept Form” the following must be executed mathematically:

X - y = 9

-y = -x + 9

Y = x - 9 <== Slope-Intercept Form (Cannot be considered as the correct answer, given the positive slope configuration, thus is marked out).

Thus far, as evaluated, the correct answers to the proposed interrogate, as according to the linear data provided in the Cartesian Plane is acknowledged, and henceforth disseminated, as B. Y = -2x + 5 and C. 2x + y = 4.
