Answer:
1) 0.6838
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set 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]
The Z-score 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. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]
35.45% of small businesses experience cash flow problems in their first 5 years.
This means that [tex]p = 0.3545[/tex]
Sample of 530 businesses
This means that [tex]n = 530[/tex]
Mean and standard deviation:
[tex]\mu = p = 0.3545[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.3545(1-0.3545)}{530}} = 0.0208[/tex]
What is the probability that between 34.2% and 39.03% of the businesses have experienced cash flow problems?
This is the p-value of Z when X = 0.3903 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.342.
X = 0.3903
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{0.3903 - 0.3545}{0.0208}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.72[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.72[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9573
X = 0.342
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{0.342 - 0.3545}{0.0208}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.6[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.6[/tex] has a p-value of 0.27425
0.9573 - 0.2743 = 0.683
With a little bit of rounding, 0.6838, so option 1) is the answer.
Solve 7 pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
I assume you really mean 7!
you understand what "!" means ?
n! = n×(n-1)×(n-2)×(n-3)×...×3×2×1
so,
7! = 7×6×5×4×3×2×1
now all you need is a calculator.
7! = 5040
A roll of carpet that contains 250 yd of carpet will cover how many rooms if each room requires 7 3/4 yards of carpet?
Answer: 32 room
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]7\frac{3}{4} =\frac{4(7)+3}{4} =\frac{28+3}{4} =\frac{31}{4}=7.75[/tex]
If 1 room = 7.75 yd of carpet ⇒ x rooms = 250 yd of carpet
Use proportions & cross-multiply to solve:
[tex]\frac{1}{7.75} =\frac{x}{250}\\7.75x=250\\x=\frac{250}{7.75} =32.258[/tex]
So 250 yd of carpet can cover about 32 rooms.

Each of these extreme value problems has a solution with both a maximum value and a minimum value. Use Lagrange multipliers to find the extreme values of the function subject to the given constraint.
(a) f (x, y) = x^2 - y^2; x^2 + y^2 = 1
Max of 1 at (plusminus 1, 0), min of - 1 at (0, plusminus l)
(b) f (x, y) = 3x + y; x^2 + y^2 = 10
Max of 10 at (3, 1), min of - 10 at (- 3, - 1)
(c) f (x, y) = xy; 4x^2 + y^2 = 8
Max of 2 at plusminus (1, 2), min of - 2 at plusminus (l, - 2)
Answer:
a) f(x,y) = - 1 minimum at P ( 0 ; -1 )
b) f (x,y) = 10 maximum at P ( 3 , 1 ) and f (x,y) = - 10 minimum at Q ( - 3 , - 1 )
c) Max f ( x , y ) = 2 for points P ( 1, 2 ) and T ( -1 , -2 )
Min f ( x , y ) = -2 for points Q ( 1 , - 2 ) and R ( -1 , 2 )
Step-by-step explanation:
A) f(x,y) = x² - y² subject to x² + y² = 1 g(x,y) = x² + y²- 1
δf(x,y)/ δx = 2*x δg(x,y)/ δx = 2*x
δf(x,y)/ δy = - 2*y δg(x,y)/ δy = 2*y
δf(x,y)/ δx = λ* δg(x,y)/ δx
2*x = λ*2*x
δf(x,y)/ δy = λ* δg(x,y)/ δy
- 2*y = λ*2*y
Then, solving
2*x = λ*2*x x = λ*x λ = 1
- 2*y = λ*2*y y = - 1
x² + y²- 1 = 0 x² + ( -1)² - 1 = 0 x = 0
Point P ( 0 ; -1 ) ; then at that point
f(x,y) = x² - y² f(x,y) = 0 - ( -1)² f(x,y) = - 1 minimum
b) f( x, y ) = 3*x + y g ( x , y ) = x² + y² = 10
δf(x,y)/ δx = 3 δg(x,y)/ δx = 2*x
δf(x,y)/ δy = 1 δg(x,y)/ δy = 2*y
δf(x,y)/ δx = λ * δg(x,y)/ δx ⇒ 3 = 2* λ *x (1)
δf(x,y)/ δy = λ * δg(x,y)/ δy ⇒ 1 = 2*λ * y (2)
x² + y² - 10 = 0 (3)
Solving that system
From ec (1) λ = 3/2*x From ec (2) λ = 1/2*y
Then (3/2*x ) = 1/2*y 3*y = x
x² + y² = 10 ⇒ 9y² + y² = 10 10*y² = 10
y² = 1 y ± 1 and
y = 1 x = 3 P ( 3 , 1 ) y = - 1 x = -3 Q ( - 3 , - 1 )
Value of f( x , y ) at P f (x,y) = 3*x + y f (x,y) = 3*(3) +1
f (x,y) = 10 maximum at P ( 3 , 1 )
Value of f( x , y ) at Q f (x,y) = 3*x + y f (x,y) = 3*(- 3) + ( - 1 )
f (x,y) = - 10 minimum at Q ( - 3 , - 1 )
c) f( x, y ) = xy g ( x , y ) = 4*x² + y² - 8
δf(x,y)/ δx = y δg(x,y)/ δx = 8*x
δf(x,y)/ δy = x δg(x,y)/ δy = 2*y
δf(x,y)/ δx = λ * δg(x,y)/ δx ⇒ y = λ *8*x (1)
δf(x,y)/ δy = λ * δg(x,y)/ δy ⇒ x = λ *2*y (2)
4*x² + y² - 8 = 0 (3)
Solving the system
From ec (1) λ = y/8*x and From ec (2) λ = x/2*y Then y/8*x = x/2*y
2*y² = 8*x² y² = 4*x²
Plugging that value in ec (3)
4*x² + 4*x² - 8 = 0
8*x² = 8 x² = 1 x ± 1 And y² = 4*x²
Then:
for x = 1 y² = 4 y = ± 2
for x = -1 y² = 4 y = ± 2
Then we get P ( 1 ; 2 ) Q ( 1 ; - 2)
R ( - 1 ; 2 ) T ( -1 ; -2)
Plugging that values in f( x , y ) = xy
P ( 1 ; 2 ) f( x , y ) = 2 R ( - 1 ; 2 ) f( x , y ) = - 2
Q ( 1 ; - 2) f( x , y ) = -2 T ( -1 ; -2 ) f( x , y ) = 2
Max f ( x , y ) = 2 for points P and T
Min f ( x , y ) = -2 for points Q and R

A stamp collection consists of 10 albums each containing 42 pages. How many stamps are in the total collection if 40 stamps fit on a page?
(1) 92
(2) 820
(3) 1,680
(4) 2,080
(5) 16,800
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of albums = 10 albums[tex] \; [/tex]Number of pages in each album = 42 pages Stamps fit on 1 page = 40 stampsAs total number of pages in each album is 42 pages, so
➝ Total number of pages in 10 albums = (42 × 10) pages
➝ Total number of pages in 10 albums = 420 pages
Now, as the number of stamps fit on 1 page is 40 stamps, so
➝ Stamps fit on 420 pages = (420 × 40) stamps
➝ Stamps fit on 420 pages = 16,800 stamps
Therefore, 16,800 stamps are in the total collection.

Answer:
a. 1.48 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
You want to find the larger value of t such that h(t) = 10.
-16t^2 +25t +8 = 10
16t^2 -25t +2 = 0 . . . . subtract the left side to get standard form
Using the quadratic formula, we find the values of t to be ...
t = (-(-25) ± √((-25)^2 -4(16)(2)))/(2(16)) = (25±√497)/32
t ≈ 0.08 or 1.48
The ball goes in the hoop about 1.48 seconds after it is thrown.

Additional comment
The quadratic formula tells us the solution to ...
ax² +bx +c = 0
is given by ...
[tex]x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]
Here, we have a=16, b=-25, c=2. Of course, our variable is t, not x, but the relation is the same.
A computer monitor is listed as being 22 inches. This distance is the diagonal distance across the screen. If the screen measures 12 inches in height, what is the actual width of the screen to the nearest inch?
22 inches
18.43 inches
25.05 inches
32.5 inches
Answer
The width of the screen is 18.43.
Explanation
Use the Pythagorean Theorem (a^2+b^2=c^2) to find the height.
In a right triangle, a and b are legs. In this instance, a and b would be the height and width of the computer monitor. Let's say the height is a and the width is b (you're trying to find b). The hypotenuse of a right triangle is c. For the computer monitor, c is the diagonal.
So put in everything you know to find b; 12^2+b^2=22^2.
12^2 is 144 and 22^2 is 484. Now you have 144+b^2=484. When you simplify, you get b^2=340. When you simplify again, you find that b is about 18.43.
For which equation is (4, 3) a solution?
y=x+3
y=3 x-4
y= 2 x-5
y= 2 x-1
please say how you got your answer
Answer:
y = 2x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use trial and error to solve this.
4 = x and 3 = y
y = x + 3: 4 + 3 = 7 ≠ 3 (not what we want)
y = 3x + 4: (3 x 4) - 4 = 8 ≠ 3 (not what we want)
y = 2x - 5: (2 x 4) - 5 = 3 (what we want)
y = 2x - 1: (2 x 4) - 1 = 7 ≠ 3 (not what we want)
The answer is y = 2x - 5

The sampling distribution of is _____. an. approximately normal because is always approximately normally distributed b. approximately normal because the sample size is large in comparison to the population size c. approximately normal because of the central limit theorem d. normal if the population is normally distributed
Answer:
d. normal if the population is normally distributed
Step-by-step explanation:
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
In this question:
Sample size less than 30, so only will be normal if the population is normally distribution, and thus the correct answer is given by option d.

rotation 90 degrees counterclockwise about the origin
I'm going to try my best to explain 90° rotation:
So, you know that if you rotate something 180°, it's completely flipped (think about spinning around half-way).
Or if you spin something 360°, you spin around the whole way and end up in the same spot that you did when you started.
Notice how 90 is actually 1/4 of 360.
So imagine spinning instead of 180, spinning half of that. so you barely rotate. That's exactly what you're doing to this shape here. and if you do it about the origin counterclockwise, the origin is (0,0) so I drew it in Quadrant III, as you can see in my attachment.
You can see that every point has been moved by 90°, I put all of the variables there so you could visualize it better!
I hope this helped, let me know if you have any questions! :)

E. 0
Hint : Find the swap rate R using the table and then use R and the one-year spot rate at the start of year 2 to find the net swap payment at the end of year 2.
Answer:
A. -400
Step-by-step explanation:
We solve for the swap rate
R = (1-p3)/(p1+p2+p3)
R = 1-0.88/0.97+0.93+0.88
= 0.12/2.78
= 0.04317
Remember 4.45% is the one year spot rate for the second option
Net swap
= 300000*0.04317-300000*0.0445
= 12951-13350
= -399
This is approximately -400
So the net swap payment at the end of the second year is option a, -400

The volume of a cube is 2,744 m3. What is the side length of the cube?
Answer:
The length is 14 and the area is 196 cm².
The side length of the cube is 14 meters.
We have,
Volume of Cube = 2744 m³
To find the side length of a cube when given its volume, you can use the formula:
Side length = ∛(Volume)
So, substitute this value into the formula to calculate the side length:
Side length = ∛(2,744)
= ∛ 14 x 14 x 14
= 14 m
Therefore, the side length of the cube is 14 meters.

There are 4 routes from Danbury to Hartford and 6 routes from Hartford to Springfield. You need to drive from Danbury to Springfield for an important meeting. You don’t know it, but there are traffic jams on 2 of the 4 routes and on 3 of the 6 routes. Answer the following:
a. You will miss your meeting if you hit a traffic jam on both sections of the journey. What is the probability of this happening?
b. You will be late for your meeting if you hit a traffic jam on at least one, but not both sections of the trip. What is the probability of this?
c. What is the probability that you will hit no traffic jam?
Answer:
a. P) = 0.25
b. P) = 0.25
c. P) = 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
a) 1/4 as 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4 = 0.25 This becomes reduced as we are multiplying one complete probability journey by another complete probability journey.
b) see above as 1/2 x 1/4 and 1/4 x 1/2 = 2.5 = 1/4 = 0.25
or we can Set to 1 and 1 - 3/4 = 1/4. = 0.25.
c) 1/2 as half of the journeys have traffic jams so its 1 - 1/2 = 1/2 = 0.5
