Answer:

  7/10

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to make the units cancel, they must be the same. There are 4 quarts in 1 gallon, so 40 quarts = 10×4 quarts = 10×(1 gal) = 10 gal.

Then the ratio is ...

You can run at a speed of 4 mph and swim at a speed of 2 mph and are located on the shore, 6 miles east of an island that is 1 mile north of the shoreline. How far (in mi) should you run west to minimize the time needed to reach the island

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  5.423 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance to run. Then the remaining distance to the point that is closest to the island is (6-x) miles. The straight-line distance (d) to the point x from the island is given by the Pythagorean theorem:

  d² = 1² +(6 -x)² = x² -12x +37

  d = √(x² -12x +37)

The total travel time is the sum of times running and swimming. Each time is found from ...

  time = distance/speed

  total time = x/4 + d/2 = x/4 +(1/2)√(x² -12x +37)

__

The total time will be minimized when its derivative with respect to x is zero.

  t' = 1/4 +(1/4)(2x -12)/√(x² -12x +37) = 0

Multiplying by 4 and combining fractions, we can see the numerator will be ...

  √(x² -12x +37) +2x -12 = 0

Subtracting the radical term and squaring both sides, we get ...

  4x² -48x +144 = x² -12x +37

  3x² -36x +107 = 0

The quadratic formula tells us the smaller of the two roots is ...

  x = (36 -√(36² -4(3)(107)))/(2(3)) = (36 -√12)/6 ≈ 5.423 . . . mi

You should run 5.423 miles west to minimize the time needed to reach the island.

__

A graphing calculator solves this nicely. The attached graph shows the time is a minimum when you run 5.423 miles.

(1 point) There were 23.7 million licensed drivers in California in 2009 and 22.76 million in 2004. Find a formula for the number, N, of licensed drivers in the US as a function of t, the number of years since 2004, assuming growth is (a) Linear N(t)

Answers

Answer:

N(t) = 0.188t + 22.76

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of licensed drivers in 2004 = 22.76 million

Number of licensed drivers in 2009 = 23.7 million

Number of licensed drivers, N as a function of t since year 2004 ;

General form of a linear function :

y = mx + c

c = intercept ; m = slope

Intercept c = value of y ; when x = 0

Here, population after uerssmmx,

Hence,

In 2004 ;

22.76 = mx + c

x = 0

22.76 = c

Number in 2009

x = number of yesrs after 2004 ; x = 2000 - 2004 = 5years

We can find the slope :

y = m*5 + 22.76

y = 23.7 in 2009

23.7 = 5m + 22.76

23.7 - 22.76 = 5m

m = 0.94 / 5

m = 0.188

Hence, the linear function can be written as :

N(t) = 0.188t + 22.76

A certificate of deposit offers a nominal interest rate of 2.5 percent annually.
If inflation is 1 percent, what is the real rate of return?

Answers

To solve this question, the real rate of return formula is used, and we apply the data given in the exercise into the formula to find the real rate of return.

Formula for the real rate of return:

[tex]R = \frac{1 + N}{1 + i} - 1[/tex]

In which N is the nomial rate and i is the inflation rate, as decimals.

A certificate of deposit offers a nominal interest rate of 2.5 percent annually.

This means that [tex]N = 0.025[/tex]

Inflation is 1 percent

This means that [tex]i = 0.01[/tex]

What is the real rate of return:

Now we apply the formula:

[tex]R = \frac{1 + 0.025}{1 + 0.01} - 1[/tex]

[tex]R = 1.0149 - 1[/tex]

[tex]R = 0.0149[/tex]

0.0149*100% = 1.49%

Thus, the real rate of return is of 1.49%.

Answers

The exponential function that models the number of trees after t years is given by:

Hence, after 2 years, 450 trees will be remaining, as the graph at the end of this answer shows.

What is an exponential function?

A decaying exponential function is modeled by:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^t[/tex]

In which:

A(0) is the initial value.r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

In this problem:

The forest has 800 pine trees, hence A(0) = 800.Each year, a disease is introduced that kills a fourth of the pine trees in the forest every year, hence [tex]r = \frac{1}{4}[/tex].

Then, the equation is:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1 - r)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 800(1 - \frac{1}{4})^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 800\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^t[/tex]

After 2 years:

[tex]A(2) = 800\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^2 = 450[/tex]

450 trees will be remaining.

What is AD?

Answers

Answer:

AD = 8/3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the angle bisector theorem, angle bisector BD divides AC into AD and CD such that they are proportional to AB and CB.

This implies:

AB/AD = CB/CD

AB = 8

CB = 10

Set AD equal to x

AD = x

CD = 6 - x

Substitute the values

8/x = 10/(6 - x)

8(6 - x) = 10(x)

48 - 8x = 10x

48 - 8x + 8x = 10x + 8x

48 = 18x

48/18 = 18x/18

8/3 = x

x = 8/3

AD = 8/3 units

n a history class there are 88 history majors and 88 non-history majors. 44 students are randomly selected to present a topic. What is the probability that at least 22 of the 44 students selected are non-history majors

Answers

Answer:

0.5675 = 56.75% probability that at least 22 of the 44 students selected are non-history majors.

Step-by-step explanation:

The students are chosen without replacement from the sample, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question. We are working also with a sample with more than 10 history majors and 10 non-history majors, which mean that the normal approximation can be used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

[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]

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.

Approximation:

We have to use the mean and the standard deviation of the hypergeometric distribution, that is:

[tex]\mu = \frac{nk}{N}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{nk(N-k)(N-n)}{N^2(N-1)}}[/tex]

In this question:

88 + 88 = 176 students, which means that [tex]N = 176[/tex]

88 non-history majors, which means that [tex]k = 88[/tex]

44 students are selected, which means that [tex]n = 44[/tex]

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = \frac{44*88}{176} = 22[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{44*88*(176-88)*(176-44)}{176^2(175-1)}} = 2.88[/tex]

What is the probability that at least 22 of the 44 students selected are non-history majors?

Using continuity correction, as the hypergeometric distribution is discrete and the normal is continuous, this is [tex]P(X \geq 22 - 0.5) = P(X \geq 21.5)[/tex], which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 21.5. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{21.5 - 22}{2.88}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.17[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.17[/tex] has a p-value of 0.4325

1 - 0.4325 = 0.5675

0.5675 = 56.75% probability that at least 22 of the 44 students selected are non-history majors.

Answer:

8. -2a+14

9. w=3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

8.

The distributive property states that we can multiply each component in the parenthesis separately by the number on the outside, and then add that up to get our final answer.

For -2(a-7), this means that we can multiply -2 by a and then -2 by -7 (as 2 is the number on the outside, and a and -7 are the components in the parenthesis), add them up, and get our answer. This can be expressed as

-2 * a + (-2) * (-7) = final answer

= -2 * a + 14

We know that -2 * -7 = 14 because 2 * 7 = 14, and the two negatives in multiplication cancel each other out

9.

Using the subtraction property of equality, we can isolate the variable (w) and its coefficient (-2/3) by subtracting 5, resulting in

(-2/3)w = 4-5 = -1

Next, we can use the multiplication property of equality to isolate the w. To isolate the w, we can multiply its coefficient by its reciprocal. The reciprocal is the fraction flipped over. For (-2/3), its reciprocal is (-3/2), flipping the 2 and 3. We can multiply both sides by (-3/2) to get

w = (-3/2)

To check this, we can plug (-3/2) for w in our original equation, so

(-2/3) * (-3/2) + 5 = 4

-1 + 5 = 4

4 = 4

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Four relationships are given among four unknowns. Define the following variables: p, c -- the cost of a pie and a cake, respectively. q, d -- the number of pies and cakes, respectively.

  q/d = 5/2 . . . . . the ratio of pies to cakes sold

  pq +cd = 3780 . . . . revenue from the sales

  p = c -35 . . . . . a pie is $35 less than a cake

  cd = pq -420 . . . . revenue from cakes is $420 less than for pies

__

The equations are non-linear, so we're making up this process as we go along. We observe that 'pq' and 'cd' are involved in relations that give us their sum and difference, so these products are easily found. Their ratio can let us take advantage of our knowledge of q/d.

Substituting for cd in the second equation, we get ...

  pq +(pq -420) = 3780

  2pq = 4200

  pq = 2100

  cd = 2100 -420 = 1680

Now, we can write ...

  pq/cd = 2100/1680 = 5/4

  (p/c)(q/d) = 5/4 = (p/c)(5/2) . . . . substitute for q/d

  p/c = 1/2 = (c -35)/c . . . . . . . . . . substitute for p

  c = 2(c -35) . . . . multiply by 2c

  c = 70 . . . . . . . . add 70-c

The cost of a cake is $70.
