Answer 1

Answer:a

a

   [tex]336.04 < \mu < 443.96[/tex]

b

  The  margin of error will increase

c

The  margin of error will decreases

d

The 99% confidence interval is  [tex]0.4107 < p < 0.4293[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are  told that

   The sample size  [tex]n = 19[/tex]

    The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = \$\ 390[/tex]

    The  standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = \$ \ 120[/tex]

 

Given that the confidence level is  95% then the level of significance is mathematically represented 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

    So  

         [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]

The  margin of error is mathematically represented as

      [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]E = 1.96 * \frac{120}{\sqrt{19} }[/tex]

=>   [tex]E = 53.96[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval is  

     [tex]\= x - E < \mu < \= x + E[/tex]

=>   [tex]390 - 53.96 < \mu < 390 - 53.96[/tex]

=>  [tex]336.04 < \mu < 443.96[/tex]

When the confidence level increases the [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }[/tex] also increases which increases the margin of error hence the confidence level becomes wider

Generally the sample size mathematically varies with margin of error as follows

         [tex]n \ \ \alpha \ \ \frac{1}{E^2 }[/tex]

So if the sample size increases the margin of error decrease

The  sample proportion is mathematically represented as

       [tex]\r p = \frac{210}{500}[/tex]

       [tex]\r p = 0.42[/tex]

Given that the confidence level is 0.99 the level of significance is  [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]

The critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table is  

      [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 2.58[/tex]

  Generally 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 = 0.42 * \sqrt{ \frac{0.42 (1- 0.42 )}{ 500} }[/tex]

=>     [tex]E = 0.0093[/tex]

The 99% confidence interval  is

     [tex]\r p - E < p < \r p + E[/tex]

     [tex]0.42 - 0.0093 < p < 0.42 + 0.0093[/tex]

     [tex]0.4107 < p < 0.4293[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard transformation

g(x) = - f(x)

is a simple reflection about the x-axis.

So the answer is the last option.

Answer:

Last one

Step-by-step explanation:

The function we are interested in are g(x) and f(x).

● g(x)= (-1/x)

● f(x)= 1/x

Notice what happens when we input the same values in both functions.

● g(1) = -1/1 = -1

● f(x) = 1/1 = 1

●g(2) = -1/2 = -0.5

● f(2) = 1/2 = 0.5

Notice that we get opposite values by imputing the same number.

Wich means:

●f(x) = -g(x)

So the graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) reflected over the x axis.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, there!!!

Let's simply work with it,

Here,

tax=$1.54

rate of tax= 5.5%

now, let the original price be x.

so, 5.5% of x= $1.54 { tax amount = tax% of original price}.

or, 5.5/100 × x= $1.54

or, 5.5x = $1.54×100

A plot of land has vertices as follows, where each coordinate is a measurement in feet. Find the perimeter of the plot of land. (1,7),(7,7),(7,1),(1,1) please help and explain how to do this type of thing because i am lost

Answers

Answer:

Perimeter of ABCD = 36 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A (1,7)

B (7,7)

C (7,1)

D (1,1)

Find:

Perimeter of ABCD

Computation:

Distance between two point = √(x1-x2)² + (y1-y2)²

So,

AB = √(1-7)²+(7-7)²

AB = 6 ft

BC = √(7-7)²+(7-1)²

BC = 6 ft

CD = √(7-1)²+(1-1)²

CD = 6 ft

DA = √(1-1)²+(1-7)²

DA = 6 ft

Perimeter of ABCD = AB + BC + CD + DA

Perimeter of ABCD = 6 + 6 + 6 +6

Perimeter of ABCD = 36 ft

The perimeter of the plot is the sum of side length of the plot of land.

The perimeter of the plot is 24 feet.

Represent the vertices as follows:

[tex]W = (1,7)[/tex]

[tex]X = (7,7)[/tex]

[tex]Y = (7,1)[/tex]

[tex]Z = (1,1)[/tex]

First, we calculate the side length using the following distance formula:

[tex]d = \sqrt{(x_1 - x_2)^2 + (y_1 - y_2)^2}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]WX = \sqrt{(1- 7)^2 + (7- 7)^2} = \sqrt{36} = 6[/tex]

[tex]XY = \sqrt{(7- 7)^2 + (7- 1)^2} = \sqrt{36} = 6[/tex]

[tex]YZ = \sqrt{(7- 1)^2 + (1- 1)^2} = \sqrt{36} = 6[/tex]

[tex]ZW = \sqrt{(1- 1)^2 + (1- 7)^2} = \sqrt{36} = 6[/tex]

The perimeter (P) is then calculated as follows:

[tex]P = WX + XY + YZ + ZW[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]P = 6 + 6 + 6 + 6[/tex]

[tex]P = 24[/tex]

Hence, the perimeter of the plot of land is 24 feet.

Answer:

1.

d. (-14) + (-8)

2.

a. (-14) + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

(-14) - 8 is equal to (-14) + (-8) because we still add two negative values so the result wouldn't change.

(-14) - (-8) is equal to (-14) + 8 because there's two negative sign in front of 8 and two negative values multiplied makes a positive result.

Answer:

1. D  

2. A

Step-by-step explanation:

1.  It asks you what expression has the same value as (-14)-8.  All you need to do is find other equations that have the same value as that.  So the equation is -14-8.  IF a negative is outside a parenthesis with a positive number inside like -(+5), it is going to be -5.  If it's both negative: -(-5), it will be +5.  If it is both positive: +(+5), it is going to be +5.  

IMPORTANT!

- and + = -

- and - = +

+ and + = +

What we are looking for: -14-8

So choice A is (-14)+8 which is simplified to -14+8.  So, this one isn't right.

Choice B: 14-(-8)= 14+8.  So, it's incorrect.

Choice C: 14+(-8)= 14-8.  Again, it's not -14-8 so it's not right.

Choice D: (-14)+(-8)= -14-8.  This equation matches the one we are looking for!  So it's correct!

2. Same thing as number 1.  Let's simplify the equation it wants us to find first.  

(-14)-(-8)= -14+8

So -14+8 is what we are looking for.

Choice A: (-14)+8= -14+8.  It matches!  So it is correct.  Let's look at the other options anyway.

Choice B: 14-(-8)= 14+8.  Nope.  Not right.

Choice C: 14+(-8)= 14-8 because - always beats +.  So, this one is also incorrect.

Choice D: (-14)+(-8)= -14-8.  Oops, this is also wrong.  So choice A is the right answer.

Keep in mind, when you start getting questions like this with numbers inside the parenthesis as well, you want to remember the same rules for positive and negative, but also multiply the numbers together:

(When there is a number outside and inside a parentheses, multiply them.)

2(5)=10, CORRECT!    2+(5) is not 2 times 5.  It's whatever is closest to the parentheses, in this case being the positive sign.  So + and 5 is just 5!

IMPORTANT!

-2(-5)= - and - is positive, so positive (2 times 5).  Positive 10.

-2(+5)= - and + is negative, so negative (2 times 5). Negative 10.

+2(+5)= + and + is positive, so positive (2 times 5).  Positive 10.

Two trains, X and Y, started simultaneously from opposite ends of a 100-mile route and traveled toward each other on parallel tracks.

How many miles had Train X traveled when it met Train Y?
(A) 37.5
(B) 40.0
(C) 60.0
(D) 62.5
(E) 77.5

Answers

Answer:

(A) 37.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The trains x and y are travelling on tracks starting simultaneously from a from opposite ends of 100 miles roads.

Translate these information into a simple represention to visualize the problem. (Picture below)

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

First let's calculate the velocity of both trains.

The velocity formula is:

● V = d/t

d is the distance travelled and t is the tile needed to do it.

● V(x) = 100/5 = 20 miles per hour

● V(y) = 100/3 = 33.33.. wich is approximatively 33 after rounding to the nearest unit.

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

After calculateingboth velocities, Let's find when the trains meet.

First understand what does it mean matematically when both trains meet.

Go back to the representation and notice what happens when the trains meet.

Let t be that moment.

When x and y reches the meeting point at t, the sum of the distances they have travelled is equal to the total distance wich is 100 miles .

We khow that V = d/t so d = V×t

Let's find the expression of the distances both trains travelled when they have met each other.

● d = V(x) × t

● d' = V(y) × t

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

So the equation will be:

● V(x) × t + V(y) × t = 100

Factor using t

● t (V(x) + V(y) ) = 100

Replace V(x) and V(y) by their values

● t (20+33) = 100

● 53 t = 100

Divide both sides by 53

● 53t /53 = 100/53

● t = 1.88

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

Replace t in the expression of the distance that train x has travelled when meeting y.

● d = V(x) × t

● d = 20 × 1.88

● d = 37.6 wich is approximatively 37.5 miles

Suppose your weekly local lottery has a winning chance of 1/106. You buy lottery from them for x weeks in a row. What is the probability that you never win?

Answers

Answer:

The probability mass function  that you never win [tex]^xC_o[/tex] = [tex](\dfrac{999999}{1000000})^x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

the winning chance of a weekly local lottery = [tex]\dfrac{1}{10^6}[/tex]

= [tex]\dfrac{1}{1000000}[/tex]

The probability of losing = 1 - probability of winning (winning chance)

The probability of losing = [tex]1- \dfrac{1}{1000000}[/tex]

The probability of losing =[tex]\dfrac{999999}{1000000}[/tex]

The probability mass function  that you never win [tex]^xC_o[/tex] = [tex](\dfrac{1}{10^6} )^0 ( \dfrac{999999}{1000000})^x[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Hey there!

The area of a rectangle is the length times width.

Thus, we can write the equation, 600=30w.

Solving for the width, we get that the width is equal to 20 ft.

Let me know if this helps :)

Answer:

20 feet across.

Step-by-step explanation:

You will have to do a simple equation solve.

x is how many feet across the court is.

* could be our multiplying sign

600 = 30*x

Now divide 30 on both sides. 30 will cross out (since 30/30 is 1 and anything times 1 is the same number as it was before) on the right side and 600/30 is 20 so we change the 600 to 20.

That leaves 20 = x.

So it is 20 feet across.

The manager of a garden shop mixes grass seed that is 60% rye grass with 140 pound of grass seed that is 80% rye grass to make a mixture that is 74% rye grass. How much of the 60% mixture is used?

Answers

Answer:

60 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of pounds of grass seeds A

The number of pounds of grass seed B = 140 pounds

Total pounds of the resulting mixture = (140 + x) pounds

Rye grass A = 60% = 0.6

Rye grass B = 80% = 0.8

Total percent of mixture formed = 74% = 0.74

Hence, we have the equation:

0.6x + 0.8 × 140 = 0.74 ( 140 + x)

0.6x + 112 = 103.6 + 0.74x

Collect like terms

112 - 103.6 = 0.74x - 0.6x

8.4 = 0.14x

x = 60 pounds

Therefore, the quantity of the 60% mixture used is 60 pounds.

PLEASE HELP ME!!

Answers

Answer:

y = 2(x - 3)² + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

Here (h, k) = (3, 5), thus

y = a(x - 3)² + 5

To find a substitute (1, 13) into the equation

13 = a(1 - 3)² + 5 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

8 = 4a ( divide both sides by 4 )

a = 2, then

y = 2(x - 3)² + 5 ← equation of parabola in vertex form

And in the third quadrant both x and y is negative.

So the new position is at (-4,-8)​

Step-by-step explanation:

This shape is formed by two right triangles.

Let's start by the little one.

Let y be the third side.

Using the Pythagorian theorem we get:

y^2 = 6^2 + 3^2

y^2 = 36 + 9

y^2 = 45

y = 3√(5)

●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●

Now let's focus on the second triangle. Let z be the third side.

The Pythagorian theorem:

6^2 + x^2 = z^2

Using the Pythagorian theorem on the big triangle :

[3√(5)]^2 + z^2 = (3+x)^2

45 + z^2 = 3x^2 + 6x + 9

36 +z^2 = 3x^2 +6x

So we have a system of equations.

36+ x^2 = z^2

36 +z^2 = 3x^2 +6x

We want to khow the value of x so we will eliminate z .

Add (36+x^2 -z^2 =0) to the second one.

36 + x^2-z^2+36+z^2 = 3x^2+6x

72 + x^2 = 3x^2 +6x

72 - 2x^2 -6x = 0

Multipy it by -1 to reduce the number of - signs

2x^2 + 6x -72 = 0

This is a quadratic equation

Let A be the discriminant

● a = 2

● b = 6

● c = -72

A = b^2-4ac

A = 36 -4*2*(-72) = 36 + 8*72 =612

So this equation has two solutions

The root square of 612 is approximatively 25.

● (-6-25)/4 = -31/4 = -7.75

● (-6+25)/4 = 19/4 = 4.75 wich is approximatively 5

A distance cannot be negative so x = 5

the value of x=5, the person above showed good work
