Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence is 1, 4,...,64, 256, 1024

Notice that:

● 1 = 2^0

● 4 = 2^2

● 64 = 2^6

● 256 = 2^8

● 1024 = 2^10

Notice that we add 2 each time to the exponent so the missing number is:

● 2^(2+2) = 2^4 = 16

Answer:

The upper bound of the confidence interval is 0.34

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we want to calculate the upper bound of the confidence interval.

We start by calculating the margin of error.

Mathematically, the margin of error = 0.29 -0.24 = 0.05

So to get the upper bound of the confidence interval, we simply add this margin of error to the mean

That would be 0.05 + 0.29 = 0.34

Answer:

[tex]x = \frac{1}{3} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

*Move terms to the left and set equal to zero:

4㏒(√x) - ㏒(3x) - ㏒(x²) = 0

*simplify each term:

㏒(x²) - ㏒(3x) - ㏒(x²)

㏒(x²÷x²) -㏒(3x)

㏒(x²÷x² / 3x)

*cancel common factor x²:

㏒([tex]\frac{1}{3x}[/tex])

*rewrite to solve for x :

10⁰ = [tex]\frac{1}{3x}[/tex]

1 = [tex]\frac{1}{3x}[/tex]

1 · x = [tex]\frac{1}{3x}[/tex] · x

1x = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

*that would be our answer, however, the convention is to exclude the "1" in front of variables so we are left with:

x = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Answer: 36 shingles can be placed on the north part of the house.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Length of each shingle = [tex]1\dfrac23[/tex] feet = [tex]\dfrac53[/tex] feet.

The north part of the house has a roof line that is 60 feet across.

Then, the number of  shingles can be placed  on the north part of the house = (Length of roof line in north part) ÷ (Length of each shingle)

[tex]=60\div \dfrac{5}{3}\\\\=60\times\dfrac{3}{5}\\\\=12\times3=36[/tex]

Hence, 36 shingles can be placed on the north part of the house.

Answer:

47% and 62%

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Drink

The probability that a student buys a drink is 0.47

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that a student buys a drink will be given by;

( the number of students who bought a drink)/(the total number of students)

We are told that;

Of the 100 students who came to the movie, 62 bought popcorn and 47 bought a drink. Therefore, the required probability is;

47/100= 0.47

0.47 = 47%

2. Popcorn

For popcorn probability, it's basically the same.

The probabilty that a student buys popcorn is 0.62

The probability that a student buys popcorn will be given by;

( the number of students who bought popcorn)/(the total number of students)

So therefore,

62/100 = 0.62

0.62 = 62%

Answer:

Mean age: 48

Standard deviation: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Mean

The formula for Mean = Sum of terms/ Number of terms

Number of terms

= 42 + 54 + 50 + 54 + 50 + 42 + 46 + 46 + 48+ 48/ 10

= 480/10

= 48

The mean age is 48

b) Standard deviation

The formula for Standard deviation =

√(x - Mean)²/n

Where n = number of terms

Standard deviation =

√[(42 - 48)² + (54 - 48)² + (50 - 48)² +(54 - 48)² + (50 - 48)² +(42 - 48)² + (46 - 48)² + (46 - 48)² + (48 - 48)² + (48 - 48)² / 10]

= √-6² + 6² + 2² + 6² + 2² + -6² + -2² + -2² + 0² + 0²/10

=√36 + 36 + 4 + 36 + 4 + 36 + 4 + 4 + 0 + 0/ 10

=√160/10

= √16

= 4

The standard deviation of the ages is 4

We want to maximize [tex]x^3y^4z[/tex] subject to the constraint [tex]x+y+z=30[/tex].

The Lagrangian is

[tex]L(x,y,z,\lambda)=x^3y^4z-\lambda(x+y+z-30)[/tex]

with critical points where the derivatives vanish:

[tex]L_x=3x^2y^4z-\lambda=0[/tex]

[tex]L_y=4x^3y^3z-\lambda=0[/tex]

[tex]L_z=x^3y^4-\lambda=0[/tex]

[tex]L_\lambda=x+y+z-30=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies\lambda=3x^2y^4z=4x^3y^3z=x^3y^4[/tex]

We have

[tex]3x^2y^4z-4x^3y^3z=x^2y^3z(3y-4x)=0\implies\begin{cases}x=0,\text{ or}\\y=0,\text{ or}\\z=0,\text{ or}\\3y=4x\end{cases}[/tex]

[tex]3x^2y^4z-x^3y^4=x^2y^4(3z-x)=0\implies\begin{cases}x=0,\text{ or}\\y=0,\text{ or}\\3z=x\end{cases}[/tex]

[tex]4x^3y^3z-x^3y^4=x^3y^3(4z-y)=0\implies\begin{cases}x=0,\text{ or}\\y=0,\text{ or}4z=y\end{cases}[/tex]

Let's work with [tex]x=3z[/tex] and [tex]y=4z[/tex], for which we have

[tex]x+y+z=8z=30\implies z=\dfrac{15}4\implies\begin{cases}x=\frac{45}4\\y=15\end{cases}[/tex]

The smallest of these is C. 15/4.

Answer:

The operation:

(a,b) is equal to the rest of the division of a by b.

Now, if we have:

(a + kb,b) = (a,b) + (k*b,b)

But if we have that k and b are integers, then:

(k*b)/b = k

So b divides k*b into a whole number, this means that (k*b,b) = 0

then:

(a + kb,b) = (a,b) + (k*b,b) = (a,b) + 0 = (a,b)

Answer: 2 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential growth function is given by :-

[tex]y=A(1+r)^x[/tex] (i)

, where A = initial value , r = rate of growth and  x= time period.

As per given ,

A= 242

r= 12% = 0.12

To find : t when y= 300.

Put all the values in (i)

[tex]300=242(1+0.12)^x\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{300}{242}=(1.12)^x\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1.23967=(1.12)^x[/tex]

Taking log on both sides , we get

[tex]\log (1.2396) = t \log (1.12)\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.09328=t(0.049218)\\\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{0.09328}{0.049218}=\approx2[/tex]

hence, it will take 2 years.

Total Cost Price: $12,000

Unit Cost Price= $6

Total Selling Price = $18,000

Required

Determine the profit on each share

First, we need to determine the units of share bought;

Units = Total cost price / Unit Cost Price

[tex]Units = \frac{\$12000}{\$6}[/tex]

[tex]Units = 2000[/tex]

Next is to determine the selling price of each share; This is calculated as follows;

Unit Selling Price = Total Selling Price / Units Sold

[tex]Unit\ Selling\ Price = \frac{\$18000}{\$2000}[/tex]

[tex]Unit\ Selling\ Price = \$9[/tex]

The profit is the difference between the unit cost price and unit selling price

[tex]Profit = Unit\ Selling\ Price - Unit\ Cost\ Price[/tex]

[tex]Profit = \$9 - \$6[/tex]

[tex]Profit = \$3[/tex]

Determine which earns more interest

When Rate = 1.75% and Year = 2

Interest is as follows;

[tex]I = \frac{PRT}{100}[/tex]

Substitute 1.75 for R, 5000 for P and 2 for T

[tex]I = \frac{5000 * 1.75 * 2}{100}[/tex]

[tex]I = \frac{17500}{100}[/tex]

[tex]I = \$175[/tex]

When Rate = 1.25% and Year = 3

Interest is as follows;

[tex]I = \frac{PRT}{100}[/tex]

Substitute 1.25 for R, 5000 for P and 3 for T

[tex]I = \frac{5000 * 1.25 * 3}{100}[/tex]

[tex]I = \frac{18750}{100}[/tex]

[tex]I = \$187.5[/tex]

Comparing the interest of both investments, the 3 years investment earns more interest

Answer:

(-∞,-3) and (3,∞)  

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x³ − 27x + 3

1. Find the critical points

(a) Calculate the first derivative of the function.

f'(x) = 3x² -27  

(b) Factor the first derivative

f'(x)= 3(x² - 9) = 3(x + 3) (x - 3)

(c) Find the zeros

3(x + 3) (x - 3) = 0

x + 3 = 0      x - 3 = 0

     x = -3          x = 3

The critical points are at x = -3 and x = 3.

2. Find the local extrema

(a) x = -3

f(x) = x³ − 27x + 3 = (-3)³ - 27(-3) + 3 = -27 +81 + 3 = 57

(b) x = 3

f(x) = x³ − 27x + 3 = 3³ - 27(3) + 3 = 27 - 81 + 3 = -51

The local extrema are at (-3,57) and (3,-51).

3, Identify the local extrema as maxima or minima

Test the first derivative (the slope) over the intervals (-∞, -3), (-3,3), (3,∞)

f'(-4) = 3x² -27 = 3(4)² - 27  = 21

f'(0) = 3(0)² -27 = -27

f'(4) = 3(4)² - 27 = 51

The function is increasing on the intervals (-∞,-3) and (3,∞).

The graph below shows the critical points of your function.

to bake the required number of cakes during the available 3-hour time period, 7 cooks are required.

Let's determine the number of cooks required to bake the required number of cakes during the available time.

We have the following information:

- Each cook can bake either 5 large cakes or 14 small cakes per hour.

- The kitchen is available for 3 hours.

- We need to bake 29 large cakes and 260 cakes in total.

First, let's calculate the number of large cakes that can be baked by one cook in 3 hours:

1 cook can bake 5 large cakes/hour × 3 hours = 15 large cakes.

Next, let's calculate the number of small cakes that can be baked by one cook in 3 hours:

1 cook can bake 14 small cakes/hour × 3 hours = 42 small cakes.

Now, let's calculate the number of large cakes that can be baked by all the cooks in 3 hours:

Total number of large cakes = Number of cooks × Large cakes per cook per 3 hours

We need to bake 29 large cakes, so:

29 = Number of cooks × 15

Number of cooks = 29 / 15 ≈ 1.93

Since we can't have a fraction of a cook, we need to round up to the nearest whole number. Therefore, we need at least 2 cooks to bake the required number of large cakes.

Similarly, let's calculate the number of small cakes that can be baked by all the cooks in 3 hours:

Total number of small cakes = Number of cooks × Small cakes per cook per 3 hours

We need to bake 260 small cakes, so:

260 = Number of cooks × 42

Number of cooks = 260 / 42 ≈ 6.19

Again, rounding up to the nearest whole number, we need at least 7 cooks to bake the required number of small cakes.

Since we need to satisfy both requirements for large and small cakes, we choose the larger number of cooks required, which is 7 cooks.

Therefore, to bake the required number of cakes during the available 3-hour time period, 7 cooks are required.

A.) x=90°

Step-by-step explanation:

Note:

The triangle shown is an isosceles triangle, which means that it has 2 congruent sides (as shown by the small intersecting lines), and this also means that it has two congruent angles.

We are given an angle measure adjacent to one of the missing angles. These two form supplementary angles, which means that they're sum is equal to 180°, or a straight line. So, to find:

[tex]180=135+y[/tex]

y is the unknown angle. Solve for y:

[tex]180-135=y\\\\y=45[/tex]

y is 45°. Since this and the other angle are congruent, add:

[tex]45+45=90[/tex]

Note:

Triangles angles will always add up to a total of 180°.

To find the missing angle x°, use:

Complete question is;

A machine used to fill gallon-sized paint cans is regulated so that the amount of paint dispensed has a mean of 128 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.20 ounce. You randomly select 35 cans and carefully measure the contents. The sample mean of the cans is 127.9 ounces. Does the machine need to be? reset? Explain your reasoning.

(yes/no)?, it is (very unlikely/ likely) that you would have randomly sampled 35 cans with a mean equal to 127.9 ?ounces, because it (lies/ does not lie) within the range of a usual? event, namely within (1 standard deviation, 2 standard deviations 3 standard deviations) of the mean of the sample means.

Answer:

Yes, we should reset the machine because it is unusual to have a mean equal to 127.9 from a random sample of 35 as the mean of 127.9 doesn't fall within range of a usual event with 2 standard deviations of the mean of the sample means.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Mean: μ = 128

Standard deviation; σ = 0.2

n = 35

Now, formula for standard error of mean is given as;

se = σ/√n

se = 0.2/√35

se = 0.0338

Normally, the range of values should be within 2 standard deviations of mean. In this case, normal range of values will be;

μ ± 2se = 128 ± 0.0338

This gives; 127.9662, 128.0338

So, Yes, we should reset the machine because it is unusual to have a mean equal to 127.9 from a random sample of 35 as the mean of 127.9 doesn't fall within range of a usual event with 2 standard deviations of the mean of the sample means.

Answer:

A) t = 1.73

B) p-value =  0.0558

C) Data is not statistically significant because the p-value of 0.0558 is more than the significance value of 0.05

D) The decision means that the design specifications are not met.

E) Type II error

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotheses are:

H₀: μ = 20

H₁: μ > 20

A) Formula for the test statistic is;

t = (x' - μ)/(s/√n)

Now, we are given;

x' = 21.5

μ = 20

s = 3

n = 12

Thus;

t = (21.5 - 20)/(3/√12)

t = 1.73

B) we have our t-value as 1.73

Now, Degree of freedom(DF) = n - 1

So,DF = 12 - 1 = 11

Using significance level of α = 0.05, t-value = 1.73 and DF = 11, one tailed hypothesis, from online P-value calculator attached, we have;

p-value =  0.0558

C) Data is not statistically significant because the p-value of 0.0558 is more than the significance value of 0.05

D) We will not reject the null hypothesis. The decision means that the design specifications are not met.

E) If the true average activation time of the sprinkler system is, in fact, equal to 20 seconds, then the null hypothesis is false.

Since we did not reject the null hypothesis even though it is false, the error that was committed was therefore a type II error.

Size = small, medium, large, or extra large = 4 possible sizes

Toppings = any combination of 8 possible toppings (getting no toppings is allowed, as is getting all 8).

Combination of Toppings = 2^8

Four different sizes of pizza = 4

Number of possibilities in ordering for a single pizza :

(4 * 2^8) = 4 * 256 = 1024

Number of possibilities in ordering two pizzas :

(4 * 2^8)^2

(2^2 * 2^8)^2

From indices :

[2^(2+8)]^2

[2^(10)]^2

2^(10*2)

2^20

= 1048576
