HELP PLEASE! I tried everything from multiplying, dividing, adding, and subtracting but still no correct answer. Can someone please help me out here?
=============================================================
Explanation:
There are a few ways to do this.
One method involves drawing a horizontal line to form three rectangles as show below. Note the labels A,B,C.
Rectangle A in the upper left corner has area of base*height = 6*7 = 42 square miles. I'll let A = 42 since we'll use it later.Rectangle B is 20 miles across horizontally (base) and 2 miles tall vertically (height). The 2 miles is from 9-7 = 2. The area of rectangle B is 20*2 = 40 square miles. Let B = 40.Then finally, C = 28 because rectangle C is 4 miles across and 7 miles tall, so 4*7 = 28.Add up those three sub areas found: A+B+C = 42+40+28 = 110 square miles
----------------
There are other methods you could do. A second method is to draw two vertical lines to form 3 other rectangles, then add up the sub areas to get 110.
A third method is to draw a horizontal line across the top to form one large rectangle (20 mi by 9 mi) and subtract off the area of the 7 mi by 10 mi inner rectangle (the empty space), so you'd say 20*9 - 7*10 = 180-70 = 110
Suppose 49% of the doctors in America are dentists. If a random sample of size 689 is selected, what is the probability that the proportion of doctors who are dentists will be less than 47%
Answer:
[tex]P(<47\%)=0.1468[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Percentage of Dentist Doctors P(D)=49\%
Sample size n=689
Generally the equation for probability that the proportion of doctors who are dentists will be less than [tex]P(<47\%)[/tex] is mathematically given by
[tex]P(<47\%)=Z>(\frac{\=x-P(D)}{\sqrt{\frac{P(D)*1-P(D)}{n}}})[/tex]
[tex]P(<47\%)=Z>(\frac{0.47-0.49}{\sqrt{\frac{0.49*0.51}{689}}})[/tex]
[tex]P(<47\%)=Z>(1.05)[/tex]
Therefore from table
[tex]P(<47\%)=0.1468[/tex]

Our final answer is 56° . Hope I helped! Let me know if you have any questions regarding my answer! :)The perimeter of a square and rectangle is the same. The width of the rectangle is 6cm and it's area is 16cmsquare less than the area of the square. Find the area of the square
Answer:
Area of square = 100 square cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the sides of a square be = a
Perimeter of a square = 4a
Let area of square = [tex]a^2[/tex]
Let the Length of rectangle be = [tex]l[/tex]
Given: width of the rectangle = 6 cm
Area of rectangle = length x breadth
Perimeter of rectangle and square is equal.
That is,
[tex]2(length + width) = 4a\\\\2(l + 6) = 4a\\\\l + 6 = 2a\\\\l = 2a - 6[/tex]
Therefore ,
Area of rectangle
[tex]= Length \times width \\\\= (2a - 6) \times 6\\\\=6(2a - 6)[/tex]
Given area of rectangle is 16 less than area of square.
That is ,
[tex]( 6(2a- 6) ) = a^2 - 16\\\\12a - 36 = a^2 - 16\\\\a^2 - 12a +20= 0\\\\a^2 - 2a -10a + 20 = 0\\\\a(a - 2) - 10(a - 2) = 0\\\\(a -10) ( a-2) = 0\\\\a = 10 , \ a = 2[/tex]
Check which value of 'a ' satisfies the equation:
[tex]\underline {when \ a = 2 }\\\\Length\ of \ rectangle \ l = 2a - 6 = 2 ( 2 ) - 6 = 4 - 6 = - 2. \\\\Length \ cannot \ be \ negative \ number. \\\\ \underline{ when \ a = 10 }\\\\Length \ of \ rectangle \ , l = 2a - 6 = 2 (10) - 6 = 20 - 6 = 14\\\\satisfies \ the \ conditions. \\\\Therefore , a = 10[/tex]
That is , side of the sqaure = 10
Therefore , area of the square = 10 x 10 = 100 square cm.
A few people gather together to play a game in which one needs to roll 3 six-sided dice. One person notices that the sum of the number of spots on three dice comes up as 11 (the event E1) more often than it does 12 (the event E2) even though it looks like it should be even. This person argues as follows: E1 occurs in just six ways:
{(1,4,6),(2,3,6),(1,5,5),(2,4,5),(3,3,5),(3,4,4)}, and E2 occurs also in just six ways: {(1,5,6),(2,4,6),(3,3,6),(2,5,5),(4,4,4),(3,4,5)}.
Therefore E1 and E2 have the same probability P(E1) = P(E2). Why isn’t it?
Answer:
Yes, P(E1)=P(E2)
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
Number of dice=3
Total outcomes of 1 die=6
Therefore,
Total number of outcomes =[tex]6^3=216[/tex]
E1={{(1,4,6),(2,3,6),(1,5,5),(2,4,5),(3,3,5),(3,4,4)}
E2={(1,5,6),(2,4,6),(3,3,6),(2,5,5),(4,4,4),(3,4,5)}
We have to show that E1 and E2 have the same probability P(E1) = P(E2).
Probability, [tex]P(E)=\frac{Favorable\;outcomes}{Total\;outcomes}[/tex]
Using the formula
[tex]P(E_1)=\frac{6}{216}[/tex]
[tex]P(E_1)=0.0278[/tex]
[tex]P(E_2)=\frac{6}{216}[/tex]
[tex]P(E_2)=0.0278[/tex]
Hence, P(E1)=P(E2)
a mountain railway AB is of length 864m and rises at an angle of 120° to the horizontal.A train is 856m above sea level when it is at A calculate the height above sea level of the train when it reaches B
9514 1404 393
Answer:
1604 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The relevant trig relation is ...
Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse
Here, the "opposite" is the elevation of point B above point A, and the "hypotenuse" is the length of the railway. Then the total height of point B is ...
B = 856 + 864·sin(120°)
B = 856 +864(√3)/2 = 856 +432√3 ≈ 1604.246
The height of the train at point B is about 1604 m above sea level.
The triangles are similar by:
the ASA similarity theorem.
the SSS similarity theorem.
the AAS similarity theorem.
the AA similarity postulate.
the SAS similarity theorem.
Answer:
E. by the SAS similarity theorem.
Step-by-step explanation:
Included angle x° in ∆ ABC ≅ included angle x° in ∆EDC (vertical angles are equal)
DC/BC = 240/150 = 1.6
EC/AC = 320/200 = 1.6
This implies that the ratio of two corresponding sides of both triangles are the same.
Two triangles are considered similar to each other by the SAS similarity theorem of they have a corresponding included angle that is equal and two corresponding sides that are congruent to each other. Therefore, both triangles are similar by the SAS similarity theorem.

Solution :
Given :
Function : [tex]$\{ x^5, x^5-1,3 \} \text{ on } (- \infty, \infty)$[/tex]
We have to determine whether the given function is linear dependent or linearly independent for the interval [tex]$(-\infty, \infty)$[/tex].
The given function are linearly dependent because for the constants, [tex]c_1[/tex] and [tex]c_2[/tex], the equation is :
[tex]$c_1x^5 + c_23 = x^5-1$[/tex] has the solution [tex]$c_1 = 1$[/tex] and [tex]$c_2 = -\frac{1}{3}$[/tex]
Therefore,

Answer:
The critical value is [tex]Z_c = -2.327[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
A hypothesis will be used to test that a population mean equals 5 against the alternative that the population mean is less than 5
Test if the mean is less than a value, so a one-tailed hypothesis test is used.
Known variance σ.
This means that the z-distribution is used to solve this question.
What is the critical value for the test statistic for the significance level of 0.010?

Find the volume of the solid lying between two planes perpendicular to the x-axis at x = −1 and x = 1. The cross sections perpendicular to the x-axis are squares whose diagonals run from y = x 2 to y = 2 − x 2
I've attached a sketch of one such cross section (light blue) of the solid (shown at x = 0). The planes x = ±1 are shown in gray, and the two parabolas are respectively represented by the blue and orange curves in the (x, y)-plane.
For every x in the interval [-1, 1], the corresponding cross section has a diagonal of length (2 - x ²) - x ² = 2 (1 - x ²). The diagonal of any square occurs in a ratio to its side length of √2 : 1, so the cross section has a side length of 2/√2 (1 - x ²) = √2 (1 - x ²), and hence an area of (√2 (1 - x ²))² = 2 (1 - x ²)².
The total volume of the solid is then given by the integral,
[tex]\displaystyle\int_{-1}^1 2(1-x^2)^2\,\mathrm dx = \int_{-1}^1 (2-4x^2+4x^4)\,\mathrm dx = \boxed{\frac{32}{15}}[/tex]

AC = 5
✔️Find BC:
Reference angle (θ) = 60°
Hypotenuse = 10
Opposite = BC
Apply SOH:
Sin θ = Opp/Hyp
Substitute
Sin 60° = BC/10
10*Sin 60° = BC
10*√3/2 = BC (sin 60° = √3/2)
5*√3 = BC
BC = 5√3

j) [tex]P(C given A)=0[/tex]
k) [tex]P(not B)=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
l) [tex]P(not C)=\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Yes, events A and B are mutually exclusive. Because the results can either be even or odd, not both. No, events B and C are not mutually exclusive because the result can be both, odd and prime.
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
In order to solve part a of the problem, we need to find the possible outcomes, in this case, the possible outcomes are:
{3,5}{3,10} and {5,10}
We could think of the oppsite order, for example {5,3}{10,3}{10,5} but these are basically the same as the previous outcomes, so we will just take three outcomes in our sample space. We can think of it as drawing the two chips at the same time.
b)
Now the probability of the sum of the chips to be even. There is only one outcome where the sum of the chips is even, {3,5} since 3+5=8 the other outcomes will give us an odd number, so:
[tex]P=\frac{#desired}{#possible}[/tex]
[tex]P(A)=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
c) For the probability of the sum of the chips to be odd, there are two outcomes where the sum of the chips is odd, {3,10} since 3+10=13 and {5,10} since 5+10=15 the other outcomes will give us an even number, so:
[tex]P(B)=\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
d) The probability of the sum of the chips is prime. There is only one outcome where the sum of the chips is prime, {3,10} since 3+10=13 the other outcomes will give us non prime results, so:
[tex]P(C)=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
e) The probability of the sum of the chips to be even and prime. There are no results where we can get an even and prime number, since the only even and prime number there is is number 2 and no outcome will give us that number, so:
P(A and C)=0
f) The probability of the sum of the chips is even or odd. We can either get even or odd results, so no matter what outcome we get, we will get an odd or even result so:
[tex]P(A or B)=1[/tex]
g) The probability of the sum of the chips is odd and prime. There is only one outcome where the sum of the chips is odd and prime, {3,10} since 3+10=13 the other outcomes will give us non prime results, so:
[tex]P(B and C)=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
h) The probability of the sum of the chips is even or prime. There are two outcomes where the sum of the chips is even or prime, {3,10} since 3+10=13 and {3,5} since 3+5=8 so:
[tex]P(A or C)=\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
i) The probability of the sum of the chips is prime given that the sum of the chips is odd. There are two possible results where the sum of the chips is odd {3,10} and {5,10} and only one of those results is even, {3,10}, so
[tex]P(C given B)=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
j) The probability of the sum of the chips is prime given that the sum of the chips is even. There is only one possible even result: {3,5} but that result isn't prime, so
[tex]P(C given A)=0[/tex]
k) The probability of the sum of the chips is not odd. There is only one outcome where the sum of the chips is not odd (even), {3,5} so:
[tex]P(not B)=\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
l) The probability of the sum of the chips is not prime. There are two outcomes where the sum of the chips is not prime, {3,5} and {5,10} so:
[tex]P(not C)=\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Are events A and B mutually exclusive?
Yes, events A and B are mutually exclusive.
Why or why not?
Because the results can either be even or odd, not both.
Are events B and C mutually exclusive?
No, events B and C are not mutually exclusive.
Why or Why not?
Because the result can be both, odd and prime.

A line that passes through the origin also passes through the point (6,2). What is the slope of the line?
please answer with an explanation
9514 1404 393
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a line is the ratio of its "rise" to its "run." The "rise" is the change in vertical distance, and the "run" is the corresponding change in horizontal distance between two points on the line. The formula for the slope is ...
[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\qquad\text{where $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ are points on the line}[/tex]
In this problem, you are told the line passes through the origin, which is point (x, y) = (0, 0), and through point (6, 2). Using these coordinates in the slope formula gives ...
[tex]m=\dfrac{2-0}{6-0}=\dfrac{2}{6}=\boxed{\dfrac{1}{3}}[/tex]
__
You may notice that when the line passes through the origin, the slope is simply the ratio y/x of any point on the line. Here, that ratio is 2/6 = 1/3.
_____
Additional comment
A line through the origin is the graph of a proportional relationship. That is, y is proportional to x. The slope of the line is the constant of proportionality. The equation of the line is ...
y = kx . . . . . . where k is the constant of proportionality.
The line in this problem statement will have the equation ...
y = (1/3)x

The p-value of the test is 0.0066 < 0.05, which means that there is sufficient evidence at the 0.05 significance level to conclude that the mean salary differs from $39,385
Step-by-step explanation:
The average salary for public school teachers for a specific year was reported to be $39,385. Test if the mean salary differs from $39,385
At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean is of $39,385, that is:
[tex]H_0: \mu = 39385[/tex]
At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the mean differs from this, that is:
[tex]H_1: \mu \neq 39385[/tex]
The test statistic is:
[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.
39385 is tested at the null hypothesis:
This means that [tex]\mu = 39385[/tex]
A random sample of 50 public school teachers in a particular state had a mean of $41,680, and the population standard deviation is $5975.
This means that [tex]n = 50, X = 41680, \sigma = 5975[/tex]
Value of the test statistic:
[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
[tex]z = \frac{41680 - 39385}{\frac{5975}{\sqrt{50}}}[/tex]
[tex]z = 2.72[/tex]
P-value of the test and decision:
The p-value of the test is the probability that the sample mean differs from 39385 by at least 2295, which is P(|Z| > 2.72), which is 2 multiplied by the p-value of Z = -2.72.
Looking at the z-table, Z = -2.72 has a p-value of 0.0033
2*0.0033 = 0.0066
The p-value of the test is 0.0066 < 0.05, which means that there is sufficient evidence at the 0.05 significance level to conclude that the mean salary differs from $39,385

Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
The salaries of 235 nurses were recorded and analyzed. The analyst later found that the highest salary was incorrectly recorded as 10 times the actual amount. After the error was corrected, the report showed that the corrected value was still higher than any other salary. Which sample statistic must have changed after the correction was made?
The sample statistic that must have changed after the correction was made is mean. Because mean is based on all the observation in the data. So changing any value in the data will impact mean.
Changing the highest salary in the data will have no impact on median because median lies at the center of data.
Changing the highest salary in the data will have no impact on mode because mode is the most frequently occurring value in the data.
Changing the highest salary in the data will have no impact on minimum because minimum is the smallest value in the data.
Hence the only statistic which will change is mean.
Answer: A-Mean
Step-by-step explanation:
A.) Mean
B.) Median
C.) Mode
D.) Minimum
