the length of a rectangle is 4 unit less than the width. which expression represents the perimeter of the rectangle

Answers

Answer:

Length: 11

Width: 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let W = width

Let L = length

 

Length is 4 less than 3 times the width  ==>  L = 3*W - 4  

 

Let P = Perimeter = 2*W + 2*L

 

Perimeter is 22 more than twice the width  ==>  P = 2*W + 22

 

Setting the 2 expressions for the perimeter equal to each other gives  

 

2*W + 2*L = 2*W + 22

2*L = 22

L = 11  

 

So 11 = 3*W - 4

3*W = 15

W = 5

 

The length is 11 and the width is 5  

 

Check:  3*W - 4 = 11 = Length

           Perimeter = 32 = 22 more than 2*5 = 10

State the hypotheses. The first step is to state the null hypothesis and an alternative hypothesis.

Null hypothesis: μNew< μOld

Alternative hypothesis: μNew > μOld

Note that these hypotheses constitute a one-tailed test. The null hypothesis will be rejected if the mean difference between sample means is too small.

Formulate an analysis plan. For this analysis, the significance level is 0.05. Using sample data, we will conduct a two-sample t-test of the null hypothesis.

Analyze sample data. Using sample data, we compute the standard error (SE), degrees of freedom (DF), and the t statistic test statistic (t).

[tex]SE=\sqrt{\frac{S_1^2}{n_1} +\frac{S_2^2}{n_2} } \\\\SE=4.29[/tex]

DF = 31

[tex]t = \frac{(x_1-x_2)-d}{SE} \\\\t = - 0.4997[/tex]

where s1 is the standard deviation of sample 1, s2 is the standard deviation of sample 2, n1 is the size of sample 1, n2 is the size of sample 2, x1 is the mean of sample 1, x2 is the mean of sample 2, d is the hypothesized difference between population means, and SE is the standard error.

The observed difference in sample means produced a t statistic of - 0.499. We use the t Distribution Calculator to find P(t < - 0.499) = 0.311

Therefore, the P-value in this analysis is 0.311.

Interpret results. Since the P-value (0.311) is greater than the significance level (0.05), we cannot reject the null hypothesis.

From the above test we do have sufficient evidence in the favor of the claim that new method is efficient than the old method.

Based on historical data, your manager believes that 45% of the company's orders come from first-time customers. A random sample of 166 orders will be used to estimate the proportion of first-time-customers. What is the probability that the sample proportion is between 0.24 and 0.35?

Answers

Answer: 0.00494.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The proportion of the company's orders come from first-time customers. [tex]p=0.45[/tex]

Sample size : n= 166

Now , the probability that the sample proportion is between 0.24 and 0.35 would be :-

[tex]P(0.24<p<0.35)=P\left({\dfrac{0.24-0.45}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.45(1-0.45)}{166}}}<\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}<\dfrac{0.35-0.45}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.45(1-0.45)}{166}}}}\right)\\\ \ \left[\because z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}\right][/tex]

[tex]=P(-5.44<z<-2.58)=P(z<-2.58)-P(z<-5.44)\\\\=1-P(z<2.58)-(1-P(z<5.44))\\\\=P(z<5.44)-P(z<2.58)\\\\=1-0.99506\ [\text{By z-value table}]\\\\=0.00494[/tex]

Hence, the probability that the sample proportion is between 0.24 and 0.35 is 0.00494.

A university found that 20% of its students withdraw without completing the introductory statistics course. Assume that 20 students registered for the course. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) (a) Compute the probability that 2 or fewer will withdraw. (b) Compute the probability that exactly 4 will withdraw. (c) Compute the probability that more than 3 will withdraw. (d) Compute the expected number of withdrawals.

Answers

Answer:

(a) Probability that 2 or fewer will withdraw is 0.2061.

(b) Probability that exactly 4 will withdraw is 0.2182.

(c) Probability that more than 3 will withdraw is 0.5886.

(d) The expected number of withdrawals is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a university found that 20% of its students withdraw without completing the introductory statistics course.

Assume that 20 students registered for the course.

The above situation can be represented through binomial distribution;

[tex]P(X =r) = \binom{n}{r} \times p^{r} \times (1-p)^{n-r};x=0,1,2,3,......[/tex]

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 20 students

            r = number of success  

            p = probability of success which in our question is probability  

                  that students withdraw without completing the introductory  

                  statistics course, i.e; p = 20%

Let X = Number of students withdraw without completing the introductory statistics course

So, X ~ Binom(n = 20 , p = 0.20)

(a) Probability that 2 or fewer will withdraw is given by = P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 2)

P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 2) =  P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

=  [tex]\binom{20}{0} \times 0.20^{0} \times (1-0.20)^{20-0}+ \binom{20}{1} \times 0.20^{1} \times (1-0.20)^{20-1}+ \binom{20}{2} \times 0.20^{2} \times (1-0.20)^{20-2}[/tex]

=  [tex]1 \times1 \times 0.80^{20}+ 20 \times 0.20^{1} \times 0.80^{19}+ 190\times 0.20^{2} \times 0.80^{18}[/tex]

=  0.2061

(b) Probability that exactly 4 will withdraw is given by = P(X = 4)

                      P(X = 4) =  [tex]\binom{20}{4} \times 0.20^{4} \times (1-0.20)^{20-4}[/tex]

                                 =  [tex]4845\times 0.20^{4} \times 0.80^{16}[/tex]

                                 =  0.2182

(c) Probability that more than 3 will withdraw is given by = P(X > 3)

P(X > 3) =  1 - P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 3) = 1 - P(X = 0) - P(X = 1) - P(X = 2) - P(X = 3)

=  [tex]1-(\binom{20}{0} \times 0.20^{0} \times (1-0.20)^{20-0}+ \binom{20}{1} \times 0.20^{1} \times (1-0.20)^{20-1}+ \binom{20}{2} \times 0.20^{2} \times (1-0.20)^{20-2}+\binom{20}{3} \times 0.20^{3} \times (1-0.20)^{20-3})[/tex]

=  [tex]1-(1 \times1 \times 0.80^{20}+ 20 \times 0.20^{1} \times 0.80^{19}+ 190\times 0.20^{2} \times 0.80^{18}+1140\times 0.20^{3} \times 0.80^{17})[/tex]

=  1 - 0.4114 = 0.5886

(d) The expected number of withdrawals is given by;

                        E(X)  =  [tex]n\times p[/tex]

What is zero of a function?

Knowing what zeros represent can assist us in determining when and how to locate the zeros of functions given their expressions and a function's graph. The value of x when the function itself reaches zero is typically referred to as a function's zero.

A function's zero can take many different forms, but as long as they have a y-value of zero, we will consider them to be the function's zero.

Given Expression

f(x) = x³ + 9x² + 8x - 5

to find which is not a real zero,

condition of real zero is for any function f(a , b) if f(a).f(b) < 0 the function have at least a zero.

1: (-8, -7)

f(-8).f(-7) = [(-8)³ + 9(-8)² + 8(-8) - 5][(-7³)  + 9(-7)² + 8(-7) - 5]

f(-8).f(-7) = (-5)(37)

f(-8).f(-7) = -185 < 0 points  have at least a zero

2:  (4, 5)

f(4).f(5) = [(4)³ + 9(4)² + 8(4) - 5][(5³)  + 9(5)² + 8(5) - 5]

f(4).f(5) = 235 x 385

f(4).f(5) = 94,475 > 0

points do not have any zeros

3: (0, 1)

f(0).f(1) = [(0)³ + 9(0)² + 8(0) - 5][(1³)  + 9(1)² + 8(1) - 5]

f(0).f(1) = -5 x 13

f(0).f(1) = -65 < 0

Tess says ΔABC ≅ ΔFGE because ΔABC can be translated by the rule (x + 5, y - 7) to create ΔFGE.

Who is correct?

A. Gordon only
B. Tess only
C. Both Gordon and Tess
D. Neither Gordon nor Tess

Answers

Answer:

  D. Neither Gordon nor Tess

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertices ABC are in clockwise order. The corresponding vertices FGE are also in clockwise order. On this basis, you can say that there cannot be a single reflection (as across x=1), because that would reverse the order to counterclockwise. Gordon cannot be correct.

The left-right orientation of vertices A and C is reversed to a right-left orientation for corresponding vertices F and E. This means two reflections or a rotation is involved. Translation cannot reverse the orientation like this, so Tess cannot be correct.

ΔFGE and ΔABC are a reflection of each other across the origin, equivalent to the two reflections "across the x-axis" and "across the y-axis." This is also equivalent to a rotation of 180° about the origin.

Neither Gordon nor Tess is correct.

Answers

Answer:

mean: 46.63636

median: 34

mode: 87

range:95

How To:

Step 1 : To find Mean

    Average = ( 1 + 5 + 5 + 7 + 8 + 10 ) / 6

             =36 / 6

    Mean = 6

Step 2 : To find Median

   Middle value = ( 5 + 7 ) / 2

               = 12 / 2

    Median = 6

Step 3 : To find Mode

   Mode = 5 (The number with more repetition, here 5 is repeated two times)

Step 4 : To find Range

    Range = Largest number - Smallest number

       = 10-1

       = 9

Range = 9

Answer:

Mean: 46.6

Mode: 87

Median: 34

Range: 95

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean: (finding the average)

Median: (the middle number of the data set)

Mode: (the most number repeated from the data set)

Range: (is the difference between the highest value and the lowest value)

first arrange the following data set.

23, 87, 19, 34, 37, 87, 81, 5, 14, 100, 26

so:

5, 14, 19, 23, 26, 34, 37, 81, 87, 87, 100

Lets us first find the mean by adding up all the numbers and dividing it by the amount of numbers in the data set.

Mean: 5 + 14 + 19 + 23 + 26 + 34 + 37 + 81 + 87 + 87 + 100 = 513/11 = 46.6

Mode: 87

Median: 34

Range: 100 - 5 = 95

A professor's son, having made the wise decision to drop out of college, has been finding his way in life taking one job or another, leaving when his creativity is overly stifled or the employer tires of his creativity. The professor dutifully logs the duration of his son's last few careers and has determined that the average duration is normally distributed with a mean of sixty-six weeks and a standard deviation of ten weeks. The next career begins on Monday; what is the likelihood that it endures for less than a year and a half?

Answers

Answer:

88.88% probability that it endures for less than a year and a half

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 66, \sigma = 10[/tex]

The next career begins on Monday; what is the likelihood that it endures for less than a year and a half?

One year has 52.14 weeks. So a year and a half has 1.5*52.14 = 78.21 weeks.

So this probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 78.21.

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

[tex]Z = \frac{78.21 - 66}{10}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.22[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.22[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.8888

88.88% probability that it endures for less than a year and a half
