Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
5 : 2
since this is a simplified ratio, they have a common factor. let's say it is 'x'
so now :
5x : 2x
we know that 5x is lilies, and we also know that she has 20 lilies, so:
5x = 20
x = 4
the daisies would be 2x so 2*4 = 8
total flowers is 20 + 8

If the number of observations for each sample is 150 units, what is the 3-sigma upper control limit of the process
Complete Question
Complete Question is attached below
Answer:
[tex]UCL= 0.25[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Sample size[tex]n=150[/tex]
Sample Variants [tex]s=7[/tex]
Sigma control limits [tex]Z = 3[/tex]
Therefore
Total number of observations is Given as
[tex]T_o=n*s[/tex]
[tex]T_o=150 *7[/tex]
[tex]T_0=1050[/tex]
Generally
Summation of defectivee
[tex]\sum np=23+34+15+30+25+22+18[/tex]
[tex]\sum np= 167[/tex]
Generally the equation for P-bar is mathematically given by
[tex]P-bar=\frac{\sum np}{T_o}[/tex]
[tex]P-bar=\frac{167}{1050}[/tex]
[tex]P-bar=0.16[/tex]
Therefore
[tex]Sp=\sqrt{\frac{P-bar(1-P-bar)]}{ n}}[/tex]
[tex]Sp=\sqrt{\frac{[0.159(1-0.159)]}{150}}[/tex]
[tex]Sp=0.03[/tex]
Generally the equation for 3-sigma upper control limit of the process is mathematically given by
[tex]UCL = P-bar + Z*Sp[/tex]
[tex]UCL= 0.16 + 3*0.03[/tex]
[tex]UCL= 0.25[/tex]

Assume the random variable X has a binomial distribution with the given probability of obtaining a success. Find the following probability, given the number of trials and the probability of obtaining a success. P(X > 3), n = 5, p = 0.2
Answer:
0.0064
0.00032
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the details:
P(X > 3), n = 5, p = 0.2
The binomial distribution is related using the formula:
P(x = x) = nCx * p^x * q^(n-x)
q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8
P(X > 3) = p(x = 4) + p(x = 5)
P(x = 4) = 5C4 * 0.2^4 * 0.8^1 = 5 * 0.2^4 * 0.8^1 = 0.0064
P(x = 5) = 5C5 * 0.2^5 * 0.8^0 = 1 * 0.2^5 * 0.8^0 = 0.00032
A psychologist suspects that heroin addicts have a different assessment of self-worth than others in the general population. On a test designed to measure self-worth, the mean for the general population is 48.6. The psychologist obtains a random sample of 40 test scores produced by heroin addicts and found the sample mean and the sample standard deviations are 45.5 and 8.5, respectively. Do these data indicate the self-worth of heroin addicts is less than that of the general population?
Answer:
The p-value of the test if 0.0131, which is less than the standard significance level of 0.05, meaning that these data indicates that the self-worth of heroin addicts is less than that of the general population.
Step-by-step explanation:
On a test designed to measure self-worth, the mean for the general population is 48.6.
At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean is of 48.6, that is:
[tex]H_0: \mu = 48.6[/tex]
A psychologist suspects that heroin addicts have a different assessment of self-worth than others in the general population. Test if it is lower.
At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the mean is lower, that is:
[tex]H_1: \mu < 48.6[/tex]
The test statistic is:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.
[tex]t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.
48.6 is tested at the null hypothesis:
This means that [tex]\mu = 48.6[/tex]
The psychologist obtains a random sample of 40 test scores produced by heroin addicts and found the sample mean and the sample standard deviations are 45.5 and 8.5, respectively.
This means that [tex]n = 40, X = 45.5, s = 8.5[/tex]
Value of the test statistic:
[tex]t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{45.5 - 48.6}{\frac{8.5}{\sqrt{40}}}[/tex]
[tex]t = -2.31[/tex]
P-value of the test:
The p-value of the test is a one-tailed test(mean lower than a value), with t = -2.31 and 40 - 1 = 39 df.
Using a t-distribution calculator, this p-value is of 0.0131.
The p-value of the test if 0.0131, which is less than the standard significance level of 0.05, meaning that these data indicates that the self-worth of heroin addicts is less than that of the general population.
You decide to move out of your college's dorms and get an apartment, and you want to discuss the budget with your roommate. You know that your monthly grocery bill will depend on a number of factors, such as whether you are too busy to cook, whether you invite guests for meals frequently, how many special holiday meals you will cook, etc. In particular, G will have an approximate normal distribution with a variance of 2500 and a mean:
μ=300+10M−100B+50H
Where M is the number of meals to which you invite guests, and E[M]=8. B is a measure for how busy you are and assume it is U[0,1]. H is a variable that takes on the value 1 for holiday months of November, December, and January and 0 otherwise.
a. What is the mean of G in a November, where M=10 and B=0.5?
b. What is E(G)?
answer:
a. 400
b. 342.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean in this question has been given as
μ=300+10M−100B+50H
where M = 10
B = 0.5
H = 1
we put these into the formula of the mean above
μ=300+10(10)−100(0.5)+50(1)
μ = 300 + 100 - 50 + 50
= 400
So the mean of G in november is = 400
b. We are to find E[G] here
= E[ 300+10M−100B+50H]
m = 8
B = 0.5 or 1/2
h = 1/4
E[ 300+10x8−100x0.5+50*0.25]
= 300+80-50+12.5
= 342.5
the value for E[G] is therefore 342.5

How far will fiona jog (in feet)
Answer:
1780 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the perimeter of the rectangle, given by
P= 2(l+w) where l is the length and w is the width
The units need to be the same
Change 230 yds to ft
230 yd * 3 ft/ y = 690 ft
P = 2(690+200)
P = 2(890)
P =1780
Plan production for the next year. The demand forecast is: spring, 20,600; summer, 9,400; fall, 15,400; winter, 18,400. At the beginning of spring, you have 69 workers and 1,030 units in inventory. The union contract specifies that you may lay off workers only once a year, at the beginning of summer. Also, you may hire new workers only at the end of summer to begin regular work in the fall. The number of workers laid off at the beginning of summer and the number hired at the end of summer should result in planned production levels for summer and fall that equal the demand forecasts for summer and fall, respectively. If demand exceeds supply, use overtime in spring only, which means that backorders could occur in winter. You are given these costs: hiring, $130 per new worker; layoff, $260 per worker laid off; holding, $21 per unit-quarter; backorder cost, $9 per unit; regular time labor, $11 per hour; overtime, $17 per hour. Productivity is 0.5 unit per worker hour, eight hours per day, 50 days per quarter.
Find the total cost of this plan. Note: Hiring expense occurs at beginning of Fall. (Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "O" wherever required.)

What is the remainder for the synthetic division problem below?
2/ 3 1 2 -7
A. 25
B. 17
C. -29
D. -39
A: 25.
Explanation: Check the attached image.
For synthetic division, you just need to multiply the 1st number of the polynomial by the divisior, and then, add it up to the next number; then, the coefficient will be multiplied by the divisor, and so on and so forth until you reach the last number... that last coefficient at the end is the reminder that you've been asked for
Question 14 please show ALL STEPS
List of possible integral roots = 1, -1, 2, -2, 3, -3, 6, -6
List of corresponding remainders = 0, -16, -4, 0, 0, 96, 600, 1764
Check out the table below for a more organized way to represent the answer. The x values are the possible roots while the P(x) values are the corresponding remainders.
====================================================
Explanation:
We'll use the rational root theorem. This says that the factors of the last term divide over the factors of the first coefficient to get the list of all possible rational roots.
We'll be dividing factors of 6 over factors of 1. We'll do the plus and minus version of each. Since we're dividing over +1 or -1, this means that we're basically just looking at the plus minus of the factors of 6.
Those factors are: 1, -1, 2, -2, 3, -3, 6, -6
This is the list of possible integral roots.
Basically we list 1,2,3,6 with the negative versions of each value thrown in as well.
---------------------------------
From there, you plug each value into the P(x) function
If we plugged in x = 1, then,
P(x) = x^4 - 3x^3 - 3x^2 + 11x - 6
P(1) = (1)^4 - 3(1)^3 - 3(1)^2 + 11(1) - 6
P(1) = 1 - 3 - 3 + 11 - 6
P(1) = 0
This shows that x = 1 is a root, since we get a remainder 0. Do the same for the other possible rational roots listed above. You should find (through trial and error) that x = -2 and x = 3 are the other two roots.

hours you work. You want to make $30, so you figure you need to work 2.5 hours.
Sort the solution methods by whether they are correct or incorrect methods to solve the problem.
Answer:
[tex]n = 12h[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]r = 12/hr[/tex] --- rate
[tex]h \to hours[/tex]
[tex]n \to amount[/tex]
Required
Determine which solution is correct or incorrect
The solutions are not given. So, I will provide a general explanation
The amount (n) is calculated as:
[tex]n = r * h[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]n = 12 * h[/tex]
[tex]n = 12h[/tex]
The above is the general equation to solve for the amount, given h hours
When h = 2.5, we have:
[tex]n = 12*2.5[/tex]
[tex]n = 30[/tex]

1. Define the following: Odds ratio Relative risk 2. Describe how to calculate the Odds ratio and provde the formula. 3. Describe how to calculate the Relative Risk and provide the formula.
Answer and Explanation:
Odds ratio is the odds that an outcome would happen given a level of exposure in comparison to the occurrence of that outcome without exposure. Odds ratio is calculated by dividing odds of event occurring with exposure(the first group) by odds of event(usually disease) occurring without exposure. Odds is different from probability(denoted p/1-p). While probability is the number of favorable events divided by total number of events, odds is number of favorable events/number of unfavorable events.
Relative risk, also measuring relationship between exposure and outcome, is the ratio of the probability that an outcome would occur without exposure and probability that an outcome would occur with exposure.

for every 5 people who bought $9.75 tickets to the football game, 3 people bought $14.50 tickets. If each of 35 people bought a $9.75 ticket, how many people bought the more expensive ticket?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
The number who bought expensive tickets is 3/5 of the number who bought cheap tickets.
(3/5)(35) = 21
21 people bought the more expensive ticket.
Answer:
21 people
Step-by-step explanation:
$9.75 $14.50
5 people to 3 people
35 people to ? people
consider the proportions: 5/3 = 35/?
we need the equivalent fraction of 5/3 that has 35 on the denominator
so 5/3 = (5/3)(7/7) because 7/7 =1, and 5*3 =35
5/3 = 5*7/3*7 = 35/21

Answer:
Hypothenus = 22
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question given above, we were told that the triangles are congruent (i.e same size). Thus,
AC = EF
BC = DE
To obtain the length of each Hypothenus, we shall determine the value of y and x. This can be obtained as follow:
For y:
AC = y + 3
EF = 2y + 1
AC = EF
y + 3 = 2y + 1
Collect like terms
3 – 1 = 2y – y
2 = y
y = 2
For x:
BC = 5x + 7
DE = 6x + 2y
y = 2
DE = 6x + 2(2)
DE = 6x + 4
BC = DE
5x + 7 = 6x + 4
Collect like terms
7 – 4 = 6x – 5x
3 = x
x = 3
Finally, we shall determine the length of each Hypothenus. This can be obtained as follow:
Hypothenus = BC
Hypothenus = 5x + 7
x = 3
Hypothenus = 5x + 7
Hypothenus = 5(3) + 7
Hypothenus = 15 + 7
Hypothenus = 22
OR
Hypothenus = DE
DE = 6x + 2y
y = 2
x = 3
Hypothenus = 6(3) + 2(2)
Hypothenus = 18 + 4
Hypothenus = 22

find the differential equation of this function and indicate the order y = e^3x (acos3x +bsin3x)
Answer:
y"-6y'+18y=0
Second order
Step-by-step explanation:
Since there are 2 constants, the order of the differential equation will be 2. This means we will need to differentiate twice.
y = e^(3x) (acos3x +bsin3x)
y'=3e^(3x) (acos3x+bsin3x)
+e^(3x) (-3asin3x+3bcos3x)
Simplifying a bit by reordering and regrouping:
y'=e^(3x) cos3x (3a+3b)+e^(3x) sin3x (3b-3a)
y"=
3e^(3x) cos3x (3a+3b)+-3e^(3x) sin(3x) (3a+3b)
+3e^(3x) sin3x (3b-3a)+3e^(3x) cos(3x) (3b-3a)
Simplifying a bit by reordering and regrouping:
y"=
e^(3x) cos3x (9a+9b+9b-9a)
+e^(3x) sin3x (-9a-9b+9b-9a)
Combining like terms:
y"=
e^(3x) cos3x (18b)
+e^(3x) sin3x (-18a)
Let's reorder y like we did y' and y".
y = e^(3x) (acos3x +bsin3x)
y=e^(3x) cos3x (a) + e^(3x) sin3x (b)
Objective is to find a way to combine or combine constant multiples of y, y', and y" so that a and b are not appearing.
Let's start with the highest order derivative and work down
y"=
e^(3x) cos3x (18b)
+e^(3x) sin3x (-18a)
We need to get rid of the 18b and 18a.
This is what we had for y':
y'=e^(3x) cos3x (3a+3b)+e^(3x) sin3x (3b-3a)
Multiplying this by -6 would get rid of the 18b and 18a in y" if we add them.
So we have y"-6y'=
e^(3x) cos3x (-18a)+e^(3x) sin3x (-18b)
Now multiplying
y=e^(3x) cos3x (a) + e^(3x) sin3x (b)
by 18 and then adding that result to the y"-6y' will eliminate the -18a and -18b
y"-6y'+18y=0
Also the characteristic equation is:
r^2-6r+18=0
This can be solved with completing square or quadratic formula.
I will do completing the square:
r^2-6r+18=0
Subtract 9 on both sides:
r^2-6r+9=-9
Factor left side:
(r-3)^2=-9
Take square root of both sides:
r-3=-3i or r-3=3i
Add 3 on both sides for each:
r=3-3i or r=3+3i
This confirms our solution.
Another way to think about the problem:
Any differential equation whose solution winds up in the form y=e^(px) (acos(qx)+bsin(qx)) will be second order and you can go to trying to figure out the quadratic to solve that leads to solution r=p +/- qi
Note: +/- means plus or minus
So we would be looking for a quadratic equation whose solution was r=3 ×/- 3i
Subtracting 3 on both sides gives:
r-3= +/- 3i
Squaring both sides gives:
(r-3)^2=-9
Applying the exponent on the binomial gives:
r^2-6r+9=-9
Adding 9 on both sides gives:
r^2-6r+18=0
