Step-by-step explanation:
Let be [tex]f(m, b) = m\cdot b - m^{2}[/tex], if [tex]m = 3.48[/tex] and [tex]b = 96.52[/tex], the value of the expression:
[tex]f(3.48,96.52) = (3.48)\cdot (96.52)-3.48^{2}[/tex]
[tex]f(3.48,96.52) = 323.779[/tex]
The value of the expression when [tex]m = 3.48[/tex] and [tex]b = 96.52[/tex] is 323.779.
A cardboard box without a lid is to be made with a volume of 4 ft 3 . Find the dimensions of the box that requires the least amount of cardboard.
Answer:
2ft by 2ft by 1 ftStep-by-step explanation:
Total surface of the cardboard box is expressed as S = 2LW + 2WH + 2LH where L is the length of the box, W is the width and H is the height of the box. Since the cardboard box is without a lid, then the total surface area will be expressed as;
S = lw+2wh+2lh ... 1
Given the volume V = lwh = 4ft³ ... 2
From equation 2;
h = 4/lw
Substituting into r[equation 1;
S = lw + 2w(4/lw)+ 2l(4/lw)
S = lw+8/l+8/w
Differentiating the resulting equation with respect to w and l will give;
dS/dw = l + (-8w⁻²)
dS/dw = l - 8/w²
Similarly,
dS/dl = w + (-8l⁻²)
dS/dw = w - 8/l²
At turning point, ds/dw = 0 and ds/dl = 0
l - 8/w² = 0 and w - 8/l² = 0
l = 8/w² and w =8/l²
l = 8/(8/l² )²
l = 8/(64/I⁴)
l = 8*l⁴/64
l = l⁴/8
8l = l⁴
l³ = 8
l = ∛8
l = 2
Hence the length of the box is 2 feet
Substituting l = 2 into the function l = 8/w² to get the eidth w
2 = 8/w²
1 = 4/w²
w² = 4
w = 2 ft
width of the cardboard is 2 ft
Since Volume = lwh
4 = 2(2)h
4 = 4h
h = 1 ft
Height of the cardboard is 1 ft
The dimensions of the box that requires the least amount of cardboard is 2ft by 2ft by 1 ft
Your investment club has only two stocks in its portfolio. $25,000 is invested in a stock with a beta of 0.8, and $40,000 is invested in a stock with a beta of 1.7. What is the portfolio's beta? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Answer:
The portfolio beta is [tex]\alpha = 1.354[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The first investment is [tex]i_1 = \$ 25,000[/tex]
The first beta is [tex]k = 0.8[/tex]
The second investment is [tex]i_2 = \$ 40,000[/tex]
The second beta is [tex]w = 1.7[/tex]
Generally the portfolio beta is mathematically represented as
[tex]\alpha = \frac{ i_1 * k + i_2 * w }{ i_1 + i_2}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]\alpha = \frac{ (25000 * 0.8) + ( 40000* 1.7 ) }{40000 + 25000}[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 1.354[/tex]
Find the area of the surface generated by revolving x=t + sqrt 2, y= (t^2)/2 + sqrt 2t+1, -sqrt 2 <= t <= sqrt about the y axis
The area is given by the integral
[tex]\displaystyle A=2\pi\int_Cx(t)\,\mathrm ds[/tex]
where C is the curve and [tex]dS[/tex] is the line element,
[tex]\mathrm ds=\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}\right)^2}\,\mathrm dt[/tex]
We have
[tex]x(t)=t+\sqrt 2\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}=1[/tex]
[tex]y(t)=\dfrac{t^2}2+\sqrt 2\,t+1\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}=t+\sqrt 2[/tex]
[tex]\implies\mathrm ds=\sqrt{1^2+(t+\sqrt2)^2}\,\mathrm dt=\sqrt{t^2+2\sqrt2\,t+3}\,\mathrm dt[/tex]
So the area is
[tex]\displaystyle A=2\pi\int_{-\sqrt2}^{\sqrt2}(t+\sqrt 2)\sqrt{t^2+2\sqrt 2\,t+3}\,\mathrm dt[/tex]
Substitute [tex]u=t^2+2\sqrt2\,t+3[/tex] and [tex]\mathrm du=(2t+2\sqrt 2)\,\mathrm dt[/tex]:
[tex]\displaystyle A=\pi\int_1^9\sqrt u\,\mathrm du=\frac{2\pi}3u^{3/2}\bigg|_1^9=\frac{52\pi}3[/tex]
use the product of powers property to simplify the numeric expression.
4 1/3 • 4 1/5 = _____
Answer:
The value of [tex]4^{\dfrac{1}{3}} {\cdot} 4^{\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex] is [tex]4^{\dfrac{8}{15}}[/tex] .
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to simplify the numeric expression using property. The expression is as follows :
[tex]4^{\dfrac{1}{3}} {\cdot} 4^{\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex]
The property to be used is : [tex]x^a{\cdot} x^b=x^{a+b}[/tex]
This property is valid if the base is same. Here, base is x.
In this given problem, x = 4, a = 1/3 and b = 1/5
So,
[tex]4^{\dfrac{1}{3}} {\cdot} 4^{\dfrac{1}{5}}=4^{\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{1}{5}}\\\\=4^{\dfrac{5+3}{15}}\\\\=4^{\dfrac{8}{15}}[/tex]
So, the value of [tex]4^{\dfrac{1}{3}} {\cdot} 4^{\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex] is [tex]4^{\dfrac{8}{15}}[/tex] .
) A random sample of size 36 is selected from a normally distributed population with a mean of 16 and a standard deviation of 3. What is the probability that the sample mean is somewhere between 15.8 and 16.2
Answer:
The probability is 0.31084
Step-by-step explanation:
We can calculate this probability using the z-score route.
Mathematically;
z = (x-mean)/SD/√n
Where the mean = 16, SD = 3 and n = 36
For 15.8, we have;
z = (15.8-16)/3/√36 = -0.2/3/6 = -0.2/0.5 = -0.4
For 16.2, we have
z = (16.2-16)/3/√36 = 0.2/3/6 = 0.2/0.5 = 0.4
So the probability we want to calculate is;
P(-0.4<z<0.4)
We can get this using the standard normal distribution table;
So we have;
P(-0.4 <z<0.4) = P(z<-0.4) - P(z<0.4)
= 0.31084
how do you figure out ratios? the problem is 12 quarters to 34 dollars. thanks
Step-by-step explanation:
When you have a ratio, you put one number as the numerator and than one number as the denominator.
so it would be (12/34)=(x/68)
In this example I made the ratio you are comparing it to have 68 dollars, so when you solve for the amount of quarters you need it should be 24, since all of the numbers in this example are just being doubled.
To solve for x, you multiply 68 on both sides of the equation, 68×(12/34)=x
24=x
So this proves that this is how ratios, are used. It also does not matter what number you place on the numerator or denominator.

Gina, Sam, and Robby all rented movies from the same video store. They each rented some dramas, comedies, and documentaries. Gina rented 11 movies total. Sam rented twice as many dramas, three times as many comedies, and twice as many documentaries as Gina. He rented 27 movies total. If Robby rented 19 movies total with the same number of dramas, twice as many comedies, and twice as many documentaries as Gina, how many movies of each type did Gina rent?
Hi there! :)
Answer:
Gina rented 3 dramas, 5 comedies, and 3 documentaries.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve, we will need to set up a system of equations:
Let x = # of dramas, y = # of comedies, and z = # of documentaries:
Write equations to represent each person:
Gina:
x + y + z = 11
Sam:
2x + 3y + 2z = 27
Robby:
x + 2y + 2z = 19
Write the system:
x + y + z = 11
2x + 3y + 2z = 27
x + 2y + 2z = 19
Begin by subtracting the third equation from the second:
2x + 3y + 2z = 27
x + 2y + 2z = 19
-----------------------
x + y = 8
If x + y = 8, plug this into the first equation:
(8) + z = 11
z = 11 - 8
z = 3
We found the # of documentaries Gina rented, now we must solve for the other variables:
Subtract the top equation from the third. Substitute in the value of z we solved for:
x + 2y + 2(3) = 19
x + y + (3) = 11
-------------------------
y + 3 = 8
y = 5
Substitute in the values for y and z to solve for x:
x + 5 + 3 = 11
x + 8 = 11
x = 11 - 8
x = 3.
Therefore, Gina rented 3 dramas, 5 comedies, and 3 documentaries.
Answer:
B- x + y + z = 11
2x + 3y + 2z = 27
x + 2y + 2z = 19

Records indicate that x years after 2008, the average property tax on a three bedroom home in a certain community was T(x) =20x^2+40x+600 dollars.
Required:
a. At what rate was the property tax increasing with respect to time in 2008?
b. By how much did the tax change between the years 2008 and 2012?
Answer:
a) 40 dollars
b) 480 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the average property tax on a three bedroom home in a certain community modelled by the equation T(x) =20x²+40x+600, the rate at which the property tax is increasing with respect to time in 2008 can be derived by solving for the function T'(x) at x=0
T'(x) = 2(20)x¹ + 40x° + 0
T'(x) = 40x+40
At x = 0,
T'(0) = 40(0)+40
T'(0) = 40
Hence the property tax was increasing at a rate of 40dollars with respect to the initial year (2008).
b) There are 4 years between 2008 and 2012. To know how much that the tax change between the years 2008 and 2012, we will find T(4) - T(0)
Given T(x) =20x²+40x+600
T(4) =20(4)²+40(4)+600
T(4) = 320+160+600
T(4) = 1080 dollars
Also T(0) =20(0)²+40(0)+600
T(0) = 0+0+600
T(0)= 600 dollars
T(4) - T(0) = 1080 - 600
T(4) - T(0) = 480 dollars
Hence, the tax has changed by $480 between 2008 and 2012
Consider the following ordered data. 6 9 9 10 11 11 12 13 14 (a) Find the low, Q1, median, Q3, and high. low Q1 median Q3 high (b) Find the interquartile range.
Answer:
Low Q1 Median Q3 High
6 9 11 12.5 14
The interquartile range = 3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Consider the following ordered data. 6 9 9 10 11 11 12 13 14
From the above dataset, the highest value = 14 and the lowest value = 6
The median is the middle number = 11
For Q1, i.e the median of the lower half
we have the ordered data = 6, 9, 9, 10
here , we have to values as the middle number , n order to determine the median, the mean will be the mean average of the two middle numbers.
i.e
median = [tex]\dfrac{9+9}{2}[/tex]
median = [tex]\dfrac{18}{2}[/tex]
median = 9
Q3, i.e median of the upper half
we have the ordered data = 11 12 13 14
The same use case is applicable here.
Median = [tex]\dfrac{12+13}{2}[/tex]
Median = [tex]\dfrac{25}{2}[/tex]
Median = 12.5
Low Q1 Median Q3 High
6 9 11 12.5 14
The interquartile range = Q3 - Q1
The interquartile range = 12.5 - 9
The interquartile range = 3.5

Determine which is the appropriate approach for conducting a hypothesis test. Claim: The mean RDA of sodium is 2400mg. Sample data: n150, 3400, s550. The sample data appear to come from a normally distributed population.
Answer:
Use the student t distribution
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is the formula
t = (x - u) ÷(s/√N)
From the information we have in the question:
n = 150
s = 550
x = 3400
u = mean = 2400
= 3400 - 2400÷ 500/√150
= 1000/44.9
= 22.27

The growth rate during those 9 years is approximated by
dh/dt = 1.8t + 3,
where t is the time (in years) and h is the height (in centimeters). The seedlings are 10 centimeters tall when planted (t = 0).
(a) Find the height after t years.
h(t) =
(b) How tall are the shrubs when they are sold?
cm
Answer:
(a) After t years, the height is
18t² + 3t + 10
(b) The shrubs are847 cm tall when they are sold.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given growth rate
dh/dt = 1.8t + 3
dh = (18t + 3)dt
Integrating this, we have
h = 18t² + 3t + C
When t = 0, h = 10cm
Then
10 = C
So
(a) h = 18t² + 3t + 10
(b) Because they are sold after every 9 years, then at t = 9
h = 18(9)² + 3(9) + 10
= 810 + 27 + 10
= 847 cm
Megan has 12 pounds of cheesecake. On Monday, she and her friends eat 4 pounds. On Tuesday, she and her friends eat another 3 pounds. On Wednesday, her friend Mark gives her some more cheesecake so that she has 3 times as much as she had at the end of Tuesday. On Thursday, some of her cheesecake goes bad, so she has the amount that she had at the end of Wednesday, but divided by 5. On Friday, she gives 3 pounds to her dog. On Saturday, her mom gives her one more pound. On Sunday, how many pounds of cheesecake does Megan have left?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First we start with 12 pounds
On Monday, she and her friends eat 4 pounds. So we have 8 now.
On Tuesday, she and her friends eat another 3 pounds. So we gave 5 now.
On Wednesday, her friend Mark gives her some more cheesecake so that she has 3 times as much as she had at the end of Tuesday. 5 * 3 = 15
On Thursday, some of her cheesecake goes bad, so she has the amount that she had at the end of Wednesday, but divided by 5. She had 15 at the end of Wednesday. 15/5 = 3.
On Friday, she gives 3 pounds to her dog. 5 - 3 = 2.
On Saturday, her mom gives her one more pound. 2 + 1 = 3.
On Sunday, she finally has 3 pounds.

The probability density function for random variable W is given as follows: Let x be the 100pth percentile of W and y be the 100(1 – p)th percentile of W, where 0
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability density function (pdf) is used for continuous random variables. That is why p is between 0 and 1 (the two extremes - 0 and 1 - exclusive).
X = 100pth percentile of W
Y = 100(1-p)th percentile of W
Expressing Y as a function of X;
Y = 100(1-p)th = 100th - 100pth
Recall that 100pth is same as X, so substitute;
Y = 100th - X
where 100th = hundredth percentile of W and X = 100pth percentile of W

Sherina wrote and solved the equation. x minus 56 = 230. x minus 56 minus 56 = 230 minus 56. x = 174. What was Sherina’s error?
Answer:
subtracting 56 instead of adding (or adding wrong)
Step-by-step explanation:
She wrote ...
x - 56 = 230
x - 56 - 56 = 230 -56 . . . . correct application of the addition property*
x = 230 -56 . . . . . . . . . . . . incorrect simplification
Correctly done, the third line would be ...
x -112 = 174
This would have made Sherina realize that the error was in subtracting 56 instead of adding it. The correct solution would be ...
x - 56 + 56 = 230 + 56 . . . using the addition property of equality
x = 286 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . correct simplification on both sides
__
There were two errors:
1) incorrect strategy --- subtracting 56 instead of adding
2) incorrect simplification --- simplifying -56 -56 to zero instead of -112
We don't know whether you want to count the error in thinking as the first error, or the error in execution where the mechanics of addition were incorrectly done.
_____
* The addition property of equality requires the same number be added to both sides of the equation. Sherina did that correctly. However, the number chosen to be added was the opposite of the number that would usefully work toward a solution.
Answer:
D: Sherina should have added 56 to both sides of the equation.

O will continue to fall.
O will continue to rise.
O will remain the same.
O will only change a little.
Answer: Will continue to rise
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at the graph one notices that after a slight dip in the unemployment rate from August 2010 to January 2011, the unemployment rate began to rise and by November 2011 was still rising.
The arrow on the graph serves to indicate the direction the unemployment rate is going and as it is pointing upwards, this means that the Unemployment rate will continue to rise.
This was down to the fact that in 2011 the US was still yet to recover from the Great Recession of 2008 - 2009.

A spinner has 10 equally sized sections, 5 of which are gray and 5 of which are blue. The spinner is spun twice. What is the probability that the first spin lands on gray and the second spin lands on blue? Write your answer as a fraction in the simplest form.
Answer:
[tex]P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Sections = 10[/tex]
[tex]n(Gray) = 5[/tex]
[tex]n(Blue) = 5[/tex]
Required
Determine P(Gray and Blue)
Using probability formula;
[tex]P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = P(Gray) * P(Blue)[/tex]
Calculating P(Gray)
[tex]P(Gray) = \frac{n(Gray)}{Sections}[/tex]
[tex]P(Gray) = \frac{5}{10}[/tex]
[tex]P(Gray) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Calculating P(Gray)
[tex]P(Blue) = \frac{n(Blue)}{Sections}[/tex]
[tex]P(Blue) = \frac{5}{10}[/tex]
[tex]P(Blue) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Substitute these values on the given formula
[tex]P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = P(Gray) * P(Blue)[/tex]
[tex]P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = \frac{1}{2} * \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]P(Gray\ and\ Blue) = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]
