Answer: There are 15 friends.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that there is N friends (N is the number that we are looking for)
Each friend weights 1/20 ton.
Now, the weight of the N friends together is N times 1/20 ton.
Then we have:
N*(1/20) ton = 3/4 ton
We solve this for N.
First multiply both sides by 20.
20*N*(1/20) = N = 20*(3/4) = 60/4 = 15
Answer:
I can find the total number of people by dividing the total weight by the weight of one person.

Answer:
It is undefined.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's take a look at the first equation- if we simplify and move the terms, it becomes sqrt of 6 = 0, which results in an undefined value of x. The second equation works with x=0 but not the first so the value of x is undefined.
a is inversely proportional to (b - 4).
If a = 8 and b = 22, express a in terms of b.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a is expressed in terms of b as a = 144/(b - 4).
If A is inversely proportional to (b - 4), we can express this relationship using the formula:
A = k/(b - 4),
where k is the constant of proportionality.
To determine the value of k, we can use the given information when a = 8 and b = 22:
8 = k/(22 - 4).
Simplifying the equation:
8 = k/18.
To isolate k, we multiply both sides of the equation by 18:
8 * 18 = k.
k = 144.
Now that we know the value of k, we can rewrite the equation in terms of b:
A = 144/(b - 4).
Therefore, a is expressed in terms of b as a = 144/(b - 4).

29. Identify the end behavior of the function f(x) = 3x^4 + x^3 − 7x^2 + 12.
options:
A. As x → –∞, y → +∞, and as x → +∞, y → –∞
B. As x → –∞, y → –∞, and as x → +∞, y → –∞
C. As x → –∞, y → +∞, and as x → +∞, y → +∞
D. As x → –∞, y → –∞, and as x → +∞, y → +∞
Answer:
C. As x → –∞, y → +∞, and as x → +∞, y → +∞
Step-by-step explanation:
The leading coefficient of this even-degree function is positive, so y goes to +∞ when the magnitude of x gets large.
_____
When the function is even degree, its value for large magnitude x heads toward the infinity with the same sign as the leading coefficient.
When the function is odd degree, its value for large magnitude x will head toward the infinity with the sign that matches the product of the sign of x and the sign of the leading coefficient.

If two events are mutually exclusive, can they occur concurrently? Explain. Yes. By definition, mutually exclusive events can occur together. No. By definition, mutually exclusive events cannot occur together. No. Two events will never occur concurrently. Yes. Any two events can occur concurrently.
Answer:
No. By definition, mutually exclusive events cannot occur together.
Step-by-step explanation:
If two events are mutually exclusive, can they not occur concurrently because by definition, mutually exclusive events cannot occur together or at the same time. This ultimately implies that the events or outcome of the sampling is disjointed.
Mathematically, if two events A and B are mutually exclusive;
[tex]P(AnB) = 0[/tex]
From the above expression, we can deduce that the probability of the two (2) events occurring or having an intersection is zero (0).
[tex]P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B)[/tex]
From the above expression, we can deduce that the probability of either of the two (2) events occuring is the sum of the probability of each occurrence.
For example, when a fair die is tossed once, the outcomes are mutually exclusive.
P(d) = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.
Other examples include;
1. Tossing a coin once, you'll either get a head or a tail but not a head and a tail at the same time.
2. In cards, both a king and an ace or a king and a queen are mutually exclusive because you can't have both occurring at the same time.
A city of Punjab has a 15 percent chance of wet weather on any given day. What is the probability that it will take a week for it three wet weather on
3 separate days? Also find its Standard Deviation
Answer:
a. 0.06166
b. 0.9447
Step-by-step explanation:
15 percent is the probability it will rain on any given day. P = 0.15
lets define x as the number of days it will rain in one week.
this solution will follow a binomial distribution.
p(X=x) = nCxP^x(1-p)^x
n = 7
x = 3
1-p = 0.85
p =0.15
inserting these values into the formula
p(X=3)=7C3(0.15)^3(0.85)^4
= 7!/4!3! × 0.003375 × 0.5220
= 35 × 0.003375 × 0.5220
= 0.06166
sd = √np(1-p)
= √7 × 0.15(0.85)
= 0.9447
Find the sum of the first 6 terms of 3 - 6 + 12 + …
Answer:
[tex] S_6 = -63 [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence above is a geometric sequence.
The common ratio (r) = [tex] \frac{-6}{3} = \frac{12}{-6} = -2 [/tex]
The common ratio < 1, therefore, the formula for the sum of nth terms of the sequence would be: [tex] S_n = \frac{a_1(1 - r^n)}{1 - r} [/tex]
a1 = 3
r = -2
n = 6
Plug in the values into the formula
[tex] S_6 = \frac{3(1 - (-2^6)}{1 - (-2)} [/tex]
[tex] S_6 = \frac{3(1 - (64)}{1 + 2} [/tex]
[tex] S_6 = \frac{3(-63)}{3} [/tex]
[tex] S_6 = -63 [/tex]
If one card is randomly selected from a well-shuffled standard deck of 52 cards, what is the probability that the card selected is not a spade
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Total Number of Cards = 52
Required
Probability of not picking a spade
Let P(S) represents the probability of picking a spade;
[tex]P(S) = \frac{n(S)}{Total}[/tex]
Where n(S) is the number of spades
[tex]n(S) = 13[/tex]
Substitute [tex]n(S) = 13[/tex] and 52 for Total
[tex]P(S) = \frac{13}{52}[/tex]
[tex]P(S) = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]
Let P(S') represents the probability of not picking a spade
In probability;
[tex]P(S) + P(S') = 1[/tex]
Substitute [tex]P(S) = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{4} + P(S') = 1[/tex]
[tex]P(S') = 1 - \frac{1}{4}[/tex]
[tex]P(S') = \frac{4-1}{4}[/tex]
[tex]P(S') = \frac{3}{4}[/tex]
[tex]P(S') = 0.75[/tex]
Hence, the probability of not selecting a spade is 3/4 or 0.75

Find the smallest positive integer that satisfies both of the following equations: = 3 (mod4) and = 5 (mod6)
Answer:
x=3mod4
Means that when x is divided by 4 it gives an unknown integer and a remainder of 3.
x/4 = Z + 3/4
Z= (x-3)/4
Where Z is the integer
x=5 mod6
x/6 = Y + 5/6
Y = (x-5)/6
Where Y is the integer
Z-Y must be an integer on equal to zero
(x-3)/4 - (x-5)/6
3(x-3)/12 - 2(x-5)/12
(3x-9-2x+10)/12
(x+1)/12
If it is equal to 0
x=-1. But x should be positive
If it is equal to 1
x=11
Hence the smallest possible number is 11

A factory produces plate glass with a mean thickness of 4 mm and a standard deviation of 1.1 mm. A simple random sample of 100 sheets of glass is to be measured, and the mean thickness of the 100 sheets is to be computed. What is the probability that the average thickness of the 100 sheets is less than 3.74 mm
Answer:
0.0090483
Approximately = 0.00905
Step-by-step explanation:
z = (x - μ)/σ, where
x is the raw score = 3.74
μ is the sample mean = population mean = 4 mm
σ is the sample standard deviation
This is calculated as:
= Population standard deviation/√n
Where n = number of samples = 100
σ = 1.1/√100
σ = 1.1/10 = 0.11
z = (3.74 - 4) / 0.11
z = -2.36364
Using the z score table to determine the probability,
The probability that the average thickness of the 100 sheets is less than 3.74 mm
P(x<3.74) = 0.0090483
Approximately = 0.00905
Using the normal distribution and the central limit theorem, it is found that there is a 0.0091 = 0.91% probability that the average thickness of the 100 sheets is less than 3.74 mm.
In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means for size n has standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].In this problem:
Mean thickness of 4 mm, thus [tex]\mu = 4[/tex].Standard deviation of 1.1 mm, thus [tex]\sigma = 1.1[/tex].Sample of 100, thus [tex]n = 100, s = \frac{1.1}{\sqrt{100}} = 0.11[/tex].The probability is the p-value of Z when X = 3.74, then:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{3.74 - 4}{0.11}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.36[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.36[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0091.
0.0091 = 0.91% probability that the average thickness of the 100 sheets is less than 3.74 mm.

Find the SURFACE AREA of the composite figure below
ASAP
Answer:
248.26 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Surface area of the composite figure = (surface area of cuboid + surface area of hemisphere) - 2(base area of hemisphere)
Surface area of cuboid = [tex] 2(lw + lh + hw) [/tex]
Where,
l = 10 cm
w = 5 cm
h = 4 cm
Plug in the values into the formula:
[tex] SA = 2(10*5 + 10*4 + 4*5) [/tex]
[tex] SA = 2(50 + 40 + 20) [/tex]
[tex] SA = 2(110) = 220 cm^2 [/tex]
Surface area of hemisphere = 3πr²
Where,
π = 3.14
r = 3 cm
SA of hemisphere = 3*3.14*3² = 3*3.14*9 = 84.78 cm²
Base area of hemisphere = πr²
BA = 3.14*3² = 3.14*9 = 28.26 cm²
Surface area of the composite shape = (220 + 84.78) - 2(28.26)
= 304.78 - 56.52
SA = 248.26 cm²

A random sample of 1003 adult Americans was asked, "Do you think televisions are a necessity or a luxury you could do without?" Of the 1003 adults surveyed, 521 indicated that televisions are a luxury they could do without. Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of adult Americans who believe that televisions are a luxury they could do without out.
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval is [tex]0.503 < p < 0.535[/tex]
The interpretation is that there is 95% confidence that the true population proportion lie within the confidence interval
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sample size is n = 1003
The number that indicated television are a luxury is k = 521
Generally the sample mean is mathematically represented as
[tex]\r p = \frac{k}{n}[/tex]
[tex]\r p = \frac{521}{1003}[/tex]
[tex]\r p = 0.519[/tex]
Given the confidence level is 95% then the level of significance is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]\alpha = 100 - 95[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 5\%[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]
Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{ \alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table, the value is
[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]
The margin of error is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sqrt{ \frac{\r p (1- \r p )}{n} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 1.96 * \sqrt{ \frac{ 0.519 (1- 0.519 )}{1003} }[/tex]
=> [tex]E = 0.016[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as
[tex]\r p -E < p < \r p +E[/tex]
=> [tex]0.519 - 0.016 < p < 0.519 + 0.016[/tex]
=> [tex]0.503 < p < 0.535[/tex]

It cost Evan $17.70 to send 177 text messages. How many text messages did he send if he spent $19.10
Answer:
191
Step-by-step explanation:
17.70---- 177
19.10-----191
First just take 177/17.70= 10
all you have to do is multiply by 10
so
19.10= 191
The number of text messages he can send with $19.10 is 191 messages
solve using ratio
let
x = number of text messages he can send with $19.10
cost of messages : number of messages
$17.70 : 177 = $19.10 : x
17.70 / 177 = 19.10 / x
cross product
17.70 × x = 177 × 19.10
17.70x = 3380.7
divide both sides by 17.70
x = 3380.7 / 17.70
x = 191 messages.
Therefore, number of text messages he can send with $19.10 is 191 messages

[tex]\frac{31}{63}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the LCM of 7 and 9: 63Find how much we increased each number to get to 63: we increased 7 by 9, and we increased 9 by 7Multiply the numerators by the corresponding increase numbers: 5 × 9 = 45, and 2 × 7 = 14Put the new numerators over the new denominators, so it looks like this: [tex]\frac{45}{63}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{14}{63}[/tex] Finally, subtract one from the other and here's what you get: [tex]\frac{31}{63}[/tex]Therefore, the answer is [tex]\frac{31}{63}[/tex].
