Starting at 1:00 p.M., The temperature changes -4 degrees Fahrenheit per hour. Write and solve an equation to find how many hours (x) it will take to reach -1 °F. please say the equation.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.25 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for a linear function is given by:

y = mx + b,

where y and x are variables, m is the rate of change of y with respect to x and b is the initial value of y (value of y when x = 0).

Let x represent the number of hours after 1:00 P.M and let y represent the temperature in degree Fahrenheit.

Let us assume that initial the temperature is 0°F. The temperature changes -4 degrees Fahrenheit per hour. From the equation of a linear function y = mx + b:

m = -4 degrees Fahrenheit per hour, b = 0. Hence:

y = -4x

The time taken to reach -1°F is gotten by substituting y = -1 and finding x:

y = -4x

substituting:

-1 = -4x

x = -1 / -4

x = 0.25 hours

0.25 hours = 0.25 hours * 60 minute / 1 hour = 15 minute

Therefore at 1:15 P.M, the temperature is -1°F

A production process is known to produce a particular item in such a way that 5 percent of these are defective. If two items are randomly selected as they come off the production line, what is the probability that both are defective (assuming that they are independent)

Answers

Answer:

0.0025 = 0.25% probability that both are defective

Step-by-step explanation:

For each item, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are defective, or they are not. Items are independent of each other. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

5 percent of these are defective.

This means that [tex]p = 0.05[/tex]

If two items are randomly selected as they come off the production line, what is the probability that both are defective

This is P(X = 2) when n = 2. So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{2,2}.(0.05)^{2}.(0.95)^{0} = 0.0025[/tex]

0.0025 = 0.25% probability that both are defective

A man borrowed $3500 from a bank for 6 months. The bank collected 7-1/2% simple interest on the date of maturity. How much did the man pay for use of the money and what was the amount he repaid the bank on the due date of the note

Answers

Answer:

$3762.50

Step-by-step explanation:

From the problem, we can see our initial loan is 3500. On the return date, the interest of the loan is collected 7.5%. To find out how much the man paid for the loan, we need to find out how much he paid in interest, which is the percentage of the interest converted to a decimal x the initial loan. We get $262.5, and then we need to pay back the interest plus the initial loan we borrowed from the bank, so we need to add those together to get:

$3762.50

R3EWS.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the sample space given below.

A die is a cube with six sides on which each side contains one to six dots. Suppose a blue die and a gray die are rolled together, and the numbers of dots that occur face up on each are recorded. The possible outcomes of the sample space S are listed as follows, where in each case the die on the left is blue and the one on the right is gray.


S= {11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66}

Write the following event as a set.
The event that the numbers showing face up are the same.
E = ....................?
Compute the probability of E.

Answers

Answer:

1 / 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is a measure of the likelihood of an event to occur. The probability for an event to occur is between 0 and 1.

The Probability of an event occurring is the ratio of the number of event in the sample space to the total number of possible outcomes.

The number of possible outcomes [n(S)] from rolling a blue die and a gray die is 36.

n(S) = 36

Let E be an event that the numbers showing face up are the same.

E = {11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66}, n(E) = 6

The probability of E = P(E) = number event / number of possible outcomes =

P(E) = n(E) / n(S) = 6 / 36 = 1 / 6

A statistics student has a mean score of 92 in the first 3 tests. Suppose there are a total of 4 tests and all of them have equal weight. You can also assume that there is no extra credit in the last test. What is the best possible final average this student can get

Answers

Answer:

The best possible final average this student can get is 94.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average score is given by the sum of the scores of all tests divided by the number of tests.

In this question:

First three tests: Mean score of 92, so total score of 92*3 = 276

Best possible score, with 4 tests:

In the first three, the total is 276. The best possible score is with a grade of 100 in the fourth test. The score will be:

[tex]M = \frac{276+100}{4} = \frac{376}{4} = 94[/tex]

The best possible final average this student can get is 94.

How would I prove KM = HM?
Given that GJ is the perp bisector of HK

Answers

Answer: See step by step

Step-by-step explanation:

Since GJ is the perpendicular bisector of HK it bisects HK and make J the midpoint of HK. Since J  is the midpoint we can construct a congruence statement of  KJ≅JH. Then we know in the diagram Angle MJK= 90°, becuase it form a ⊥ line so it is 90° that also means MHJ forms a 90 ° angles becuase they also form a ⊥ line. So that means KJM≅HJM because of transitive property(a=b, b=c, then a=c). Both triangles also include side MJ, so using the reflexitive property( a=a),They are congruent. Since we proved they have a two congruent sides, with a included angle in between them we can use the SAS theorem (Side-Angle-Side) to prove they are congruent. So ΔKMJ≅ΔHMJ Then KM=HM by CPCTC.

The Ice Chalet offers dozens of different beginning ice-skating classes. All of the class names are put into a bucket. The 5 P.M., Monday night, ages 8 to 12, beginning ice-skating class was picked. In that class were 64 girls and 16 boys. Suppose that we are interested in the true proportion of girls, ages 8 to 12, in all beginning ice-skating classes at the Ice Chalet. Assume that the children in the selected class are a random sample of the population.

Required:
Construct a 92% Confidence Interval for the true proportion of girls in the ages 8-12 beginning ice-skating classes at the Ice Chalet.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "(0.73,0.87)".

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

number of girls[tex]= 64[/tex]

number of boys[tex]= 16[/tex]

Total number of children[tex]= 64+16= 80[/tex]

So,[tex]n=80[/tex]

Calculating the value of the proportion which is given by girls:

[tex]\hat{p}= \frac{\text{number of girls}}{\text{total number of childrens}}[/tex]

  [tex]=\frac{64}{80}\\\\=\frac{8}{10}\\\\= 0.8[/tex]

Therefore the confidence interval is:  

[tex]\to \hat{p}\pm z_{(1-\frac{\alpha }{2})}\sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}\\\\\to 0.8 \pm 1.75\sqrt{\frac{0.8(1-0.8)}{80}}\\\\\to 0.8 \pm 1.75 \sqrt{\frac{0.8(0.2)}{80}}\\\\\to 0.8 \pm 1.75 \sqrt{\frac{0.16}{80}}\\\\\to 0.8 \pm 1.75 \sqrt{0.002}\\\\\to 0.8 \pm 1.75 (0.04)\\\\\to 0.8 \pm 0.07\\\\\to (0.73,0.87)[/tex]

[tex]\therefore \\\\\text{The lower confidence limit} = 0.73\\\\\text{The upper confidence limit} = 0.87\\[/tex]

Nerissa has 5 pink bows 1 blue bow and 4 purple bows in a box. She will randomly choose 1 bow from the box. What is the probability Nerissa will choose a purple bow
A. 1/2
B. 2/5
C. 1/10
D. 3/5
I’ll mark brainliest

Answers

Answer: The probability is 2/5.

Step-by-step explanation: If there are 5 pink bows, 1 blue bow, and 4 purple bows, there are a total of 10 bows in the box. The probability of choosing a purple one is 4/10 (since there are 4 purple bows). 4/10 simplifies to 2/5.

The probability Nerissa will choose a purple bow is [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex].

Here Nerissa has 5 pink bows, 1 blue bow and 4 purple bows in a box.

She will randomly choose 1 box from the box.

What is Probability?  

The ratio of the number of outcomes in an exhaustive set of equally likely outcomes that produce a given event to the total number of possible outcomes.

Now,

Total number of bows = 5 + 1 + 4 =10

Number of purple bow = 4

Probability to choose purple bow = [tex]\frac{Total number of purple bow}{Total number of bow }[/tex]

                                                   =   [tex]\frac{4}{10}[/tex]

                                                   =[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

So, probability to choose purple bow is 2/5.
