Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the arrows from the picture tells us that TV is parallel to RS

since TS is a transversal that cuts the 2 parallel lines TV and RS than ∠S =x

(alternate interior angles)

sum of angles in a Δ is 180° so x+x+2x = 180°, 4x =180°, x= 45°

2x = 45*2 = 90°

Answer:

0.31311311131111....

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to tell a number which when adds to 0.4 makes it a Irrational Number . We know that ,

Rational number :- The number in the form of p/q where p and q are integers and q is not equal to zero is called a Rational number .

Irrational number :- Non terminating and non repeating decimals are called irrational number .

Recall the property that :-

Property :- Sum of a Rational Number and a Irrational number is Irrational .

So basically here we can add any Irrational number to 0.4 to make it Irrational . One Irrational number is ,

[tex] \rm\implies Irrational\ Number = 0.31311311131111... [/tex]

So when we add this to 0.4 , the result will be Irrational . That is ,

[tex] \rm\implies 0.4 + 0.31311311131111 ... = 0.731311311131111 .. [/tex]

Answer:

  D. no solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

The first equation can be simplified to standard form:

  0.5(8w +2v) = 3

  4w +v = 3 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

__

The second equation can also be simplified to a comparable standard form:

  8w = 2 -v +4w

  4w +v = 2 . . . . . . add v -4w

__

Comparing these two equations, we find the variable expressions to be the same, but the constants to be different. If any set of variable values were to satisfy one of these equations, it could not satisfy the other equation. There are no solutions to the system.

[tex]A'(x,y) = (-3, 4) + (6, -4)[/tex]

[tex]A'(x,y) = (3, 0)[/tex]

[tex]B'(x,y) = (0,1) + (6, -4)[/tex]

[tex]B'(x,y) = (6, -3)[/tex]

[tex]C'(x,y) = (-4, 1) + (6, -4)[/tex]

[tex]C'(x,y) = (2, -3)[/tex]

Answer:

a)

The null hypothesis is: [tex]H_0: p_M - p_W = 0[/tex]

The alternative hypothesis is: [tex]H_1: p_M - p_W > 0[/tex]

b) For men is of 0.49 and for women is of 0.36.

c) The p-value of the test is 0.0039 < 0.01, which means that the results are statistically significant so that you can conclude a greater proportion of men expect to get a raise or a promotion this year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Before solving this question, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Men:

98 out of 200, so:

[tex]p_M = \frac{98}{200} = 0.49[/tex]

[tex]s_M = \sqrt{\frac{0.49*0.51}{200}} = 0.0353[/tex]

Women:

72 out of 200, so:

[tex]p_W = \frac{72}{200} = 0.36[/tex]

[tex]s_W = \sqrt{\frac{0.36*0.64}{200}} = 0.0339[/tex]

a. State the hypothesis test in terms of the population proportion of men and the population proportion of women.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion are similar, that is, if the subtraction of the proportions is 0, so:

[tex]H_0: p_M - p_W = 0[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion of men is greater, that is, the subtraction is greater than 0, so:

[tex]H_1: p_M - p_W > 0[/tex]

b. What is the sample proportion for men? For women?

For men is of 0.49 and for women is of 0.36.

c. Use α= 0.01 level of significance. What is the p-value and what is your conclusion?

From the sample, we have that:

[tex]X = p_M - p_W = 0.49 - 0.36 = 0.13[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_M^2+s_W^2} = \sqrt{0.0353^2 + 0.0339^2} = 0.0489[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, and s is the standard error, so:

[tex]z = \frac{0.13 - 0}{0.0489}[/tex]

[tex]z = 2.66[/tex]

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a difference above 0.13, which is the p-value of z = 2.66.

Looking at the z-table, z = 2.66 has a p-value of 0.9961.

1 - 0.9961 = 0.0039.

The p-value of the test is 0.0039 < 0.01, which means that the results are statistically significant so that you can conclude a greater proportion of men expect to get a raise or a promotion this year.

The missing piece (triangle) is facing right side up but the red triangle has its point facing left

TO get it facing up, turn it by 90 degrees clockwise

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can expand the function to get its expanded form and to figure out what degree it is. For a polynomial function with one variable, the degree is the largest exponent value (once fully expanded/simplified) of the entire function that is connected to a variable. For example, x²+1 has a degree of 2, as 2 is the largest exponent value connected to a variable. Similarly, x³+2^5 has a degree of 2 as 5 is not an exponent value connected to a variable.

Expanding, we get

(x³-3x+1)²  = (x³-3x+1)(x³-3x+1)

= x^6 - 3x^4 +x³ - 3x^4 +9x²-3x + x³-3x+1

= x^6 - 6x^4 + 2x³ +9x²-6x + 1

In this function, the largest exponential value connected to the variable, x, is 6. Therefore, this is to the 6th degree. The fundamental theorem of algebra states that a polynomial of degree n has n roots, and as this is of degree 6, this has 6 roots

minus sign ironically makes it go to the right

because the function crosses the y axis at -13

It is the graph of y = x translated 13 units down is the statement describes a transformation of the graph of y=x.

Graph is a mathematical representation of a network and it describes the relationship between lines and points.

The equation y = x - 13 represents a transformation of the graph of y = x. To find the type of  transformation, we have to compare the two equations and look for changes.

In the equation y = x - 13, we subtract 13 from the value of x.

This means that the graph of y = x is shifted 13 units downwards,

since every point on the graph has 13 subtracted from its y-coordinate.

Hence,  It is the graph of y = x translated 13 units down is the statement describes a transformation of the graph of y=x.

there are 12 set of months in a year

Two workers finished a job in 7.5 days.

How long would it take each worker to do the job by himself if one of the workers needs 8 more days to finish the job than the other worker?

let t = time required by one worker to complete the job alone

then

(t+8) = time required by the other worker (shirker)

let the completed job = 1

A typical shared work equation

7.5%2Ft + 7.5%2F%28%28t%2B8%29%29 = 1

multiply by t(t+8), cancel the denominators, and you have

7.5(t+8) + 7.5t = t(t+8)

7.5t + 60 + 7.5t = t^2 + 8t

15t + 60 = t^2 + 8t

form a quadratic equation on the right

0 = t^2 + 8t - 15t - 60

t^2 - 7t - 60 = 0

Factor easily to

(t-12) (t+5) = 0

the positive solution is all we want here

t = 12 days, the first guy working alone

then

the shirker would struggle thru the job in 20 days.

Answer:7 + 17 = 24÷2 (since there are 2 workers) =12. Also, ½(7) + ½17 = 3.5 + 8.5 = 12. So, we know that the faster worker will take 7 days and the slower worker will take 17 days. Hope this helps! jul15

Answer:

f(x)=(x-1)^2+5 with domain x>1 and range y>5 has inverse g(x)=sqrt(x-5)+1 with domain x>5 and range y>1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The function is a parabola when graphed. It is in vertex form f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k where (h,k) is vertex and a tells us if it's reflected or not or if it's stretched. The thing we need to notice is the vertex because if we cut the graph with a vertical line here the curve will be one to one. So the vertex is (1,5). Let's restrict the domain so x >1.

* if x>1, then x-1>0.

* Also since the parabola opens up, then y>5.

So let's solve y=(x-1)^2+5 for x.

Subtract 5 on both sides:

y-5=(x-1)^2

Take square root of both sides:

Plus/minus sqrt(y-5)=x-1

We want x-1>0:

Sqrt(y-5)=x-1

Add 1 on both sides:

Sqrt(y-5)+1=x

Swap x and y:

Sqrt(x-5)+1=y

x>5

Put t = 99.5, we get

E(99.5)=1100(100-99.5)+580(100-99.5)^2

E(99.5)=1100(0.5)+580(0.5)^2

E(99.5)=1100(0.5)+580(0.25)

E(99.5)=550+145

E(99.5)=695m

Answer:

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

6sin(30) = 3

Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation:

[tex]\displaystyle y^2 = 1 + \sin x[/tex]

And we want to prove that:

[tex]\displaystyle 2y\frac{d^2y}{dx^2} + 2\left(\frac{dy}{dx}\right) ^2 + y^2 = 1[/tex]

Find the first derivative by taking the derivative of both sides with respect to x:

[tex]\displaystyle 2y \frac{dy}{dx} = \cos x[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2y:

Find the second derivative using the quotient rule:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} \frac{d^2y}{dx^2} &= \frac{(\cos x)'(2y) - (\cos x)(2y)'}{(2y)^2}\\ \\ &= \frac{-2y\sin x-2\cos x \dfrac{dy}{dx}}{4y^2} \\ \\ &= -\frac{y\sin x + \cos x\left(\dfrac{\cos x}{2y}\right)}{2y^2} \\ \\ &= -\frac{2y^2\sin x+\cos ^2 x}{4y^3}\end{aligned}[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle 2y\left(-\frac{2y^2\sin x+\cos ^2 x}{4y^3}\right) + 2\left(\frac{\cos x}{2y}\right)^2 +y^2 = 1[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{-2y^2\sin x-\cos ^2x}{2y^2} + \frac{\cos ^2 x}{2y^2} + y^2 = 1[/tex]

Combine fractions:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{\left(-2y^2\sin x -\cos^2 x\right)+\left(\cos ^2 x\right)}{2y^2} + y^2 = 1[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{-2y^2\sin x }{2y^2} + y^2 = 1[/tex]

Cancel:

[tex]\displaystyle -\sin x + y^2 = 1[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]-\sin x + \left( 1 + \sin x\right) =1[/tex]

Simplify. Hence:

Q.E.D.

Answer:

a) Mean blood pressure for people in China, which has mean 128 and standard deviation 23.

b) 0.3821 = 38.21% probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 135 mmHg or more.

c) 0.714 = 71.4% probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 141 mmHg or less.

d) 0.0851 = 8.51% probability that a person in China has blood pressure between 120 and 125 mmHg.

e) Since |Z| = 0.3 < 2, it is not unusual for a person in China to have a blood pressure of 135 mmHg.

f) 90% of all people in China have a blood pressure of less than 157.44 mmHg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

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

The mean blood pressure for people in China is 128 mmHg with a standard deviation of 23 mmHg

This means that [tex]\mu = 128, \sigma = 23[/tex]

a.) State the random variable.

Mean blood pressure for people in China, which has mean 128 and standard deviation 23.

b.) Find the probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 135 mmHg or more.

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 135, so:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{135 - 128}{23}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.3[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.3[/tex] has a p-value of 0.6179.

1 - 0.6179 = 0.3821

0.3821 = 38.21% probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 135 mmHg or more.

c.) Find the probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 141 mmHg or less.

This is the p-value of Z when X = 141, so:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{141 - 128}{23}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.565[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.565[/tex] has a p-value of 0.7140.

0.714 = 71.4% probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 141 mmHg or less.

d.) Find the probability that a person in China has blood pressure between 120 and 125 mmHg.

This is the p-value of Z when X = 125 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 120, so:

X = 125

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

[tex]Z = \frac{125 - 128}{23}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.13[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.13[/tex] has a p-value of 0.4483.

X = 120

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

[tex]Z = \frac{120 - 128}{23}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.35[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.35[/tex] has a p-value of 0.3632.

0.4483 - 0.3632 = 0.0851

0.0851 = 8.51% probability that a person in China has blood pressure between 120 and 125 mmHg.

e.) Is it unusual for a person in China to have a blood pressure of 135 mmHg? Why or why not?

From item b, when X = 135, Z = 0.3.

Since |Z| = 0.3 < 2, it is not unusual for a person in China to have a blood pressure of 135 mmHg.

f.) What blood pressure do 90% of all people in China have less than?

The 90th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.9, so X when Z = 1.28.

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

[tex]1.28 = \frac{X - 128}{23}[/tex]

[tex]X - 128 = 1.28*23[/tex]

[tex]X = 157.44[/tex]

90% of all people in China have a blood pressure of less than 157.44 mmHg.

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

15% are defective.

This means that [tex]p = 0.15[/tex]

We also have:

[tex]n = 10[/tex]

(i) No defective fuse

This is [tex]P(X = 0)[/tex]. So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.15)^{0}.(0.85)^{10} = 0.1969[/tex]

0.1969 = 19.69% probability that there will be no defective fuse.

(ii) At least one defective fuse

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]

We already have P(X = 0) = 0.1969, so:

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - 0.1969 = 0.8031[/tex]

0.8031 = 80.31% probability that there will be at least one defective fuse.

(iii) Exactly two defective fuses

This is P(X = 2). So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.15)^{2}.(0.85)^{8} = 0.2759[/tex]

0.2759 = 27.59% probability that there will be exactly two defective fuses.

(iv) At most one defective fuse

This is:

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

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.15)^{0}.(0.85)^{10} = 0.1969[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.15)^{1}.(0.85)^{9} = 0.3474[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.1969 + 0.3474 = 0.5443[/tex]

0.5443 = 54.43% probability that there will be at most one defective fuse.
