The length of a rectangle is 7cm less than 3 times it's width. It's area is 20 square cm. Find the dimensions of the rectangle

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4 cm by 5 cm (4 x 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle with length [tex]l[/tex] and width [tex]w[/tex] is given by [tex]A=lw[/tex]. Since the length of the rectangle is 7 less than 3 times its width, we can write the length as [tex]3w-7[/tex]. Therefore, substitute [tex]l=3w-7[/tex] into [tex]A=lw[/tex]:

[tex]A=lw,\\20=(3w-7)w[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]20=3w^2-7w[/tex]

Subtract 20 from both sides:

[tex]3w^2-7w-20=0[/tex]

Factor:

[tex](w-4)(3w+5)=0,\\\begin{cases}w-4=0, w=\boxed{4},\\3w+5=0, 3w=-5, w=\boxed{-\frac{5}{3}}\end{cases}[/tex]

Since [tex]w=-\frac{5}{3}[/tex] is extraneous (our dimensions cannot be negative), our answer is [tex]w=4[/tex]. Thus, the length must be [tex]20=4l, l=\frac{20}{4}=\boxed{5}[/tex] and the dimension of the rectangle are 4 cm by 5 cm (4 x 5).

Silicone implant augmentation rhinoplasty is used to correct congenital nose deformities. The success of the procedure depends on various biomechanical properties of the human nasal periosteum and fascia. An article reported that for a sample of 10 (newly deceased) adults, the mean failure strain (%) was 24.0, and the standard deviation was 3.2.

Required:
a. Assuming a normal distribution for failure strain, estimate true average strain in a way that converys information about precision and reliability.
b. Predict the strain for a single adult in a way that conveys information about precision and reliability. How does the prediction compare to the estimate calculated in part (a)?

Answers

Solution :

Given information :

A sample of n = 10 adults

The mean failure was 24 and the standard deviation was 3.2

a). The formula to calculate the 95% confidence interval is given by :

[tex]$\overline x \pm t_{\alpha/2,-1} \times \frac{s}{\sqrt n}$[/tex]

Here, [tex]$t_{\alpha/2,n-1} = t_{0.05/2,10-1}$[/tex]

                       = 2.145

Substitute the values

[tex]$24 \pm 2.145 \times \frac{3.2}{\sqrt {10}}$[/tex]

(26.17, 21.83)

When the [tex]\text{sampling of the same size}[/tex] is repeated from the [tex]\text{population}[/tex] [tex]n[/tex] infinite number of [tex]\text{times}[/tex], and the [tex]\text{confidence intervals}[/tex] are constructed, then [tex]95\%[/tex] of them contains the [tex]\text{true value of the population mean}[/tex], μ in between [tex](26.17, 21.83)[/tex]

b). The formula to calculate 95% prediction interval is given by :

    [tex]$\overline x \pm t_{\alpha/2,-1} \times s \sqrt{1+\frac{1}{n}}$[/tex]

   [tex]$24 \pm 2.145 \times 3.2 \sqrt{1+\frac{1}{10}}$[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

12 -4x-5x = 39

Combine like terms

12 - 9x = 39

Subtract 12 from each side

12-9x-12 = 39-12

-9x = 27

Divide by -9

-9x/-9 = 27/-9

x = -3

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

12 - 4x - 5x = 39

Combine like terms

12 - 9x = 39

Subtract 12 from both sides

12 - 12 - 9x = 39 - 12

-9x = 27

Divide both sides by -9

-9x/-9 = 27/-9

x = -3

Suppose you choose a marble from a bag containing 4 red marbles, 2 white marbles, and 3 blue marbles. You return the first marble to the bag and then choose again. Find P(red then blue).

Answers

Answer:

since you returned the first marble, the total number of marbles remains the same

prob(Blue)=(3/9)=1/3

P(red then blue)=(4/9)*(1/3)

Please help me determine the general equation for the graph above as well as solve for a. Thank you.

Answers

Observe that the x coords of the roots of a polynomial are,

[tex]x_{1,2,3,4}=\{-3,0,1,4\}[/tex]

Which can be put into form,

[tex]y=a(x-x_1)(x-x_2)(x-x_3)(x-x_4)[/tex]

with data

[tex]y=a(x-(-3))(x-0)(x-1)(x-4)=ax(x+3)(x-1)(x-4)[/tex]

Now if I take any root point and insert it into the equation I won't be able to solve for y because they will always multiply to zero (ie. when I pick [tex]x=-3[/tex] the right hand side will multiply to zero,

[tex]y=-3a(-3+3)(-3-1)(-3-4)=0[/tex]

and a will be "lost" in the process.

If we observed a non-root point that we could substitute with x and y and result in a non-loss process then you could find a. But since there is no such point (I don't think you can read it of the graph) there is no other viable way to find a.

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

[tex]2\sin(x) +\sqrt{3} =0 \implies 2\sin(x)=-\sqrt{3} \implies \boxed{\sin(x)=-\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2} }[/tex]

[tex]\therefore x=\dfrac{4\pi }{3}[/tex]

But note, as sine does represent the [tex]y[/tex] value, [tex]\dfrac{5\pi }{3}[/tex] is also solution

Therefore,

[tex]x=\dfrac{4\pi }{3} \text{ and } x=\dfrac{5\pi }{3}[/tex]

This is the solution for [tex]x\in[0, 2\pi ][/tex], recall the unit circle.

Note: [tex]\sin(x)=-\dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \implies \sin(x)=\sin \left(\pi +\dfrac{\pi }{3} \right)[/tex]

b)

[tex]\sqrt{3} \tan(x) + 1 =0 \implies \tan(x) = -\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{3} } \implies \boxed{ \tan(x) = -\dfrac{\sqrt{3} }{3} }[/tex]

Once

[tex]\tan(x) = -\dfrac{\sqrt{3} }{3} \implies \sin(x) = -\dfrac{1}{2} \text{ and } \cos(x) = \dfrac{\sqrt{3} }{2}[/tex]

As [tex]\tan(x) = \dfrac{\sin(x)}{\cos(x)}[/tex]

[tex]\therefore x=-\dfrac{\pi }{6}[/tex]

c)

[tex]4\sin^2(x) - 1 = 0 \implies \sin^2(x) = \dfrac{1}{4} \implies \boxed{\sin(x) = \pm \dfrac{\sqrt{1} }{\sqrt{4} } = \pm \dfrac{1}{2}}[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]\sin(x)=\dfrac{1}{2} \implies x=\dfrac{\pi }{6} \text{ and } x=\dfrac{5\pi }{6}[/tex]

[tex]\sin(x)=-\dfrac{1}{2} \implies x=\dfrac{7\pi }{6} \text{ and } x=\dfrac{11\pi }{6}[/tex]

The solutions are

[tex]x=\dfrac{\pi }{6} \text{ and } x=\dfrac{5\pi }{6} \text{ and }x=\dfrac{7\pi }{6} \text{ and } x=\dfrac{11\pi }{6}[/tex]

Point estimate of the proportion of the population that would provide Yes

The sample proportion of yes responses.

In the sample:

112 yes responses in the sample of 400, so:

In a nationwide survey conducted by a reputable research​ center, a sample of adults in a certain country were asked whether they favor a plan to break up a small collection of​ megabanks, which controlled about ​% of the banking​ industry; ​% of those sampled responded in the affirmative. According to the​ report, "the margin of sampling error is ​/ percentage points with a ​% level of​ confidence." Find and interpret a ​% confidence interval for the percentage of all adults in the country who favor a plan to break up the megabanks.

Answers

Answer:

(42% ; 48%)

We are 99% confident that the percentage of all adults in the country who favor a plan to break up the megabanks is between 42% and 48%

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval is used to estimate the range of values for which the population value may lie at a certain level of confidence.

Given that :

Phat = 45%

Margin of error = ±3%

The confidence interval is defined as :

C. I = Phat ± margin of error

C. I = 45% ± 3%

Lower boundary :

45% - 3% = 42%

Upper boundary :

45% + 3% = 48%

C.I = (42% ; 48%)

We are 99% confident that the percentage of all adults in the country who favor a plan to break up the megabanks is between 42% and 48%

What is the sum of the geometric sequence 1, 3, 9, ... if there are 10 terms? (5 points)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]S_n = \frac{1 (1 - 3^{10})}{1 - 3} = 29524[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

There's a handy formula we can use to find the sum of a geometric sequence, and here it is

[tex]S_n = \frac{a_1 (1 - r^n)}{1 - r}[/tex]

The value n represents the amount of terms you want to sum in the sequence. The variable r is known as the common ratio, and a is just some constant. Let's find those values.

First lets visualize this sequence

[tex]n_1 = 1\\n_2 = 1 + 3\\n_3 = 1 + 3 + 3^2\\n_4=1+3+3^2+3^3\\...[/tex]

Okay so there's clearly a pattern here, let's write it a bit more concisely. For each n, starting at 1, we raise 3 to the (n-1) power, add it to what we had for the previous term.

[tex]S_n = \sum{3^{n-1}} = 3^{1 - 1} + 3^{2 - 1} + 3^{3-1} ...[/tex]

Our coefficients of r, and a, are already here! As you can see below, r is just 3, and a is just 1.

[tex]S_n = \sum{a*r^{n-1}}[/tex]

To finish up lets plug these coefficients in and get our sum after 10 terms.

[tex]S_n = \frac{1 (1 - 3^{10})}{1 - 3} = 29524[/tex]

13y = 63 + 8z

y = (63 + 8z)/13

2x + 2y - 3z = 11

2×(7 - 2y + z) + 2×(63 + 8z)/13 - 3z = 11

2×(7 - 2×(63 + 8z)/13 + z) + 2×(63 + 8z)/13 - 3z = 11
