Answer:
b = 10.5
Step-by-step explanation:
2(b-9) = 3
then:
2*b + 2*-9 = 3
2b - 18 = 3
2b = 3 + 18
2b = 21
b = 21/2
b = 10.5
check:
2(10.5 - 9) = 3

A cardboard box without a lid is to be made with a volume of 4 ft 3 . Find the dimensions of the box that requires the least amount of cardboard.
Answer:
2ft by 2ft by 1 ftStep-by-step explanation:
Total surface of the cardboard box is expressed as S = 2LW + 2WH + 2LH where L is the length of the box, W is the width and H is the height of the box. Since the cardboard box is without a lid, then the total surface area will be expressed as;
S = lw+2wh+2lh ... 1
Given the volume V = lwh = 4ft³ ... 2
From equation 2;
h = 4/lw
Substituting into r[equation 1;
S = lw + 2w(4/lw)+ 2l(4/lw)
S = lw+8/l+8/w
Differentiating the resulting equation with respect to w and l will give;
dS/dw = l + (-8w⁻²)
dS/dw = l - 8/w²
Similarly,
dS/dl = w + (-8l⁻²)
dS/dw = w - 8/l²
At turning point, ds/dw = 0 and ds/dl = 0
l - 8/w² = 0 and w - 8/l² = 0
l = 8/w² and w =8/l²
l = 8/(8/l² )²
l = 8/(64/I⁴)
l = 8*l⁴/64
l = l⁴/8
8l = l⁴
l³ = 8
l = ∛8
l = 2
Hence the length of the box is 2 feet
Substituting l = 2 into the function l = 8/w² to get the eidth w
2 = 8/w²
1 = 4/w²
w² = 4
w = 2 ft
width of the cardboard is 2 ft
Since Volume = lwh
4 = 2(2)h
4 = 4h
h = 1 ft
Height of the cardboard is 1 ft
The dimensions of the box that requires the least amount of cardboard is 2ft by 2ft by 1 ft
Suppose you are standing such that a 32-foot tree is directly between you and the sun. If you are standing 140 feet away from the tree and the tree casts a 160-foot shadow, how tall could you be and still be completely in the shadow of the tree? x 160 ft 140 ft 32 ft
Answer:
Height = 4 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine how tall I can be we take the difference between the shadow cast by the 32-feet tree and the distance away from the tree
But the tree is 32 feet tall but on shadow it's 160
So lemme determine how long I'll be in my shadow first
Distance away from tree= 140 feet
Length of shadow cast by tree
= 160 feet
Length of shadow= 160-140
Length if shadow= 20 feet
My height= x
X/20= 32/160
X= 20*32/260
X = 4 feet
Height = 4 feet

Determine which is the appropriate approach for conducting a hypothesis test. Claim: The mean RDA of sodium is 2400mg. Sample data: n150, 3400, s550. The sample data appear to come from a normally distributed population.
Answer:
Use the student t distribution
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is the formula
t = (x - u) ÷(s/√N)
From the information we have in the question:
n = 150
s = 550
x = 3400
u = mean = 2400
= 3400 - 2400÷ 500/√150
= 1000/44.9
= 22.27
At 0.05 significance level, df = 149 so t tabulated will be 1.65.

Answer:
The z-score for 1880 is 1.34.
The z-score for 1190 is -0.88.
The z-score for 2130 is 2.15.
The z-score for 1350 is -0.37.
And the z-score of 2130 is considered to be unusual.
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is: A standardized exam's scores are normally distributed. In recent years, the mean test score was 1464 and the standard deviation was 310. The test scores of four students selected at random are 1880, 1190, 2130, and 1350. Find the z-scores that correspond to each value and determine whether any of the values are unusual. The z-score for 1880 is nothing. (Round to two decimal places as needed.) The z-score for 1190 is nothing. (Round to two decimal places as needed.) The z-score for 2130 is nothing. (Round to two decimal places as needed.) The z-score for 1350 is nothing. (Round to two decimal places as needed.) Which values, if any, are unusual? Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box within your choice. A. The unusual value(s) is/are nothing. (Use a comma to separate answers as needed.) B. None of the values are unusual.
We are given that the mean test score was 1464 and the standard deviation was 310.
Let X = standardized exam's scores
The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;
Z = [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
where, [tex]\mu[/tex] = mean test score = 1464
[tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation = 310
S, X ~ Normal([tex]\mu=1464, \sigma^{2} = 310^{2}[/tex])
Now, the test scores of four students selected at random are 1880, 1190, 2130, and 1350.
So, the z-score of 1880 = [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1880-1464}{310}[/tex] = 1.34
The z-score of 1190 = [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1190-1464}{310}[/tex] = -0.88
The z-score of 2130 = [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{2130-1464}{310}[/tex] = 2.15
The z-score of 1350 = [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{1350-1464}{310}[/tex] = -0.37
Now, the values whose z-score is less than -1.96 or higher than 1.96 are considered to be unusual.
According to our z-scores, only the z-score of 2130 is considered to be unusual as all other z-scores lie within the range of -1.96 and 1.96.
In a survey of 15000 students of different schools, 40% of them were found to have tuition before the see examination. Among them 50% studied only mathematics ,30% only science and 10% studied others subject. how many student studied mathematics as well as science.
Answer: 600 students.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok, we start with 15,000 students.
40% of them had tuition, so the actual number of them that had tuition is:
15,000*0.40 = 6,000.
Now we want to find the number of students that studied math and science.
50% only studied math,
30% only studied science
10% studied other subjects.
So 50% + 30% + 10% did NOT studied both math and science
90% is the percentage that did not study math and mathematics as well as science, then the other 10% did.
Then, out of the 6,000 students that had tuition, 10% studied math and science, the total number is:
6,000*0.10 = 600

Variable g is 8 more than variable w. Variable g is also 2 less than w. Which pair of equations best models the relationship between g and w? g = 8w g = w + 2 w = g + 8 w = g − 2 w = 8g w = g + 2 g = w + 8 g = w − 2
Answer: g = w + 8 g=w-2
Step-by-step explanation:
We could represent the word phrases by the equations.
g = w + 8
g = w - 2
Answer:
g = w + 8
g = w - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that g and w exists, then we can show the relation as described:
"Variable g is 8 more than variable w."
g = w + 8
"Variable g is also 2 less than w."
g = w - 2
These are the two equations of the described relationship between g and w.
Note that g could not actually exist in the real number system:
g = w + 8
g = w - 2
w + 8 = w - 2
w - w = -2 - 8
0 != -10
This is impossible within the real number system.

A maker of microwave ovens advertises that no more than 10% of its microwaves need repair during the first 5 years of use. In a random sample of 50 microwaves that are 5 years old, 12% needed repairs at a=.04 can you reject the makers claim that no more than 10% of its microwaves need repair during the first five years of use?
Answer:
We conclude that no more than 10% of its microwaves need repair during the first five years of use.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a maker of microwave ovens advertises that no more than 10% of its microwaves need repair during the first 5 years of use.
In a random sample of 50 microwaves that are 5 years old, 12% needed repairs.
Let p = population proportion of microwaves who need repair during the first five years of use.
So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : p [tex]\leq[/tex] 10% {means that no more than 10% of its microwaves need repair during the first five years of use}
Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : p > 10% {means that more than 10% of its microwaves need repair during the first five years of use}
The test statistics that will be used here is One-sample z-test for proportions;
T.S. = [tex]\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} } }[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
where, [tex]\hat p[/tex] = sample proportion of microwaves who need repair during the first 5 years of use = 12%
n = sample of microwaves = 50
So, the test statistics = [tex]\frac{0.12-0.10}{\sqrt{\frac{0.10(1-0.10)}{50} } }[/tex]
= 0.471
The value of z-test statistics is 0.471.
Now, at a 0.04 level of significance, the z table gives a critical value of 1.751 for the right-tailed test.
Since the value of our test statistics is less than the critical value of z as 0.471 < 1.751, so we have insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as the test statistics will not fall in the rejection region.
Therefore, we conclude that no more than 10% of its microwaves need repair during the first five years of use.

Find the probability that when a couple has four children, at least one of them is a boy. (Assume that boys and girls are equally likely.)
Answer:
The probability that at least, one of the four children the couple has is a boy is 0.8.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that boys and girls are equally likely, we want to find the probability of having at least, one boy, from four children..
Note that it is possible to have the following for 4 children:
1. 4 boys, 0 girls
2. 3 boys, 1 girl
3. 2 boys, 2 girls
4. 1 boy, 3 girls
5. 0 boys, 4 girls.
To have at least, one boy, out of the 5 options, only 4 is possible.
1. 4 boys, 0 girls.........YES
2. 3 boys, 1 girl ...........YES
3. 2 boys, 2 girls.........YES
4. 1 boy, 3 girls.............YES
5. 0 boys, 4 girls..........NO
The probability is therefore,
(Probability of event = 4) ÷ (Total possible outcome = 5)
P = 4/5 = 0.8

Your investment club has only two stocks in its portfolio. $25,000 is invested in a stock with a beta of 0.8, and $40,000 is invested in a stock with a beta of 1.7. What is the portfolio's beta? Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Answer:
The portfolio beta is [tex]\alpha = 1.354[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The first investment is [tex]i_1 = \$ 25,000[/tex]
The first beta is [tex]k = 0.8[/tex]
The second investment is [tex]i_2 = \$ 40,000[/tex]
The second beta is [tex]w = 1.7[/tex]
Generally the portfolio beta is mathematically represented as
[tex]\alpha = \frac{ i_1 * k + i_2 * w }{ i_1 + i_2}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]\alpha = \frac{ (25000 * 0.8) + ( 40000* 1.7 ) }{40000 + 25000}[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 1.354[/tex]
Gina, Sam, and Robby all rented movies from the same video store. They each rented some dramas, comedies, and documentaries. Gina rented 11 movies total. Sam rented twice as many dramas, three times as many comedies, and twice as many documentaries as Gina. He rented 27 movies total. If Robby rented 19 movies total with the same number of dramas, twice as many comedies, and twice as many documentaries as Gina, how many movies of each type did Gina rent?
Hi there! :)
Answer:
Gina rented 3 dramas, 5 comedies, and 3 documentaries.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve, we will need to set up a system of equations:
Let x = # of dramas, y = # of comedies, and z = # of documentaries:
Write equations to represent each person:
Gina:
x + y + z = 11
Sam:
2x + 3y + 2z = 27
Robby:
x + 2y + 2z = 19
Write the system:
x + y + z = 11
2x + 3y + 2z = 27
x + 2y + 2z = 19
Begin by subtracting the third equation from the second:
2x + 3y + 2z = 27
x + 2y + 2z = 19
-----------------------
x + y = 8
If x + y = 8, plug this into the first equation:
(8) + z = 11
z = 11 - 8
z = 3
We found the # of documentaries Gina rented, now we must solve for the other variables:
Subtract the top equation from the third. Substitute in the value of z we solved for:
x + 2y + 2(3) = 19
x + y + (3) = 11
-------------------------
y + 3 = 8
y = 5
Substitute in the values for y and z to solve for x:
x + 5 + 3 = 11
x + 8 = 11
x = 11 - 8
x = 3.
Therefore, Gina rented 3 dramas, 5 comedies, and 3 documentaries.
Answer:
B- x + y + z = 11
2x + 3y + 2z = 27
x + 2y + 2z = 19
