Answer:
Z = 50
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following data;
Z = 187
x = 64
y = 6
Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;
Z = k√x/y
First of all, we would find the constant of proportionality, k;
187 = k√64/6
187 * 6 = k√64
1122 = 8k
k = 1122/8
k = 140.25
To find z, when x and y = 9
Z = 140.25√9/9
Z = (140.25 * 3)/9
Z = 420.75/9
Z = 46.75 ≈ 50
Note: The values in the latter part of the question isn't explicitly stated, so I assumed a value of 9 for both x and y.
In a given region, the number of tornadoes in a one-week period is modeled by a Poisson distribution with mean 2. The numbers of tornadoes in different weeks are mutually independent. Calculate the probability that fewer than four tornadoes occur in a three-week period.
Answer:
0.1512 = 15.12% probability that fewer than four tornadoes occur in a three-week period.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
In which
x is the number of sucesses
e = 2.71828 is the Euler number
[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.
In a given region, the number of tornadoes in a one-week period is modeled by a Poisson distribution with mean 2
Three weeks, so [tex]\mu = 2*3 = 6[/tex]
Calculate the probability that fewer than four tornadoes occur in a three-week period.
This is:
[tex]P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0025[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.0149[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.0446[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.0892[/tex]
Then
[tex]P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.0025 + 0.0149 + 0.0446 + 0.0892 = 0.1512[/tex]
0.1512 = 15.12% probability that fewer than four tornadoes occur in a three-week period.
If the mean, median, and mode are all equal for the set (10, 80, 70, 120, x}, find the value of x.
X
(Simplify your answer. Type an integer or a decimal.)
Question Viewer
Answer:
x=70
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we know that the mode is the number that is the most common. As each value in the set so far only has one of each number, we know that x must be one of the current numbers, making that the mode.
Next, because x is the mode and has to be the median as well, and our number line so far is
(10, 70, 80, 120), x must be either 70 or 80 to make it the median. This is because if x is 10 or 120, we would end up with (10, 10, 70, 80, 120) with 70 as the median or (10, 70, 80, 120, 120) with 80 as the median.
Finally, to calculate the mean, we have
mean = sum / count
The mean must be x, as it is equal to the mode, so we have
x = (10+70+80+120 + x)/5 (as there are 5 numbers including x)
multiply both sides by 5 to remove the denominator
5 * x = 10+70+80+120+x
5 * x = 280 + x
subtract x from both sides to isolate the x and the coefficient
4 * x = 280
divide both sides by 4 to get x
x= 70
We see that x is 70 or 80 and is one of the current numbers, checking off all boxes.
Midwest Publishing publishes textbooks. The company uses an 800 number where people can call to ask questions about the textbooks and place orders. Currently, there are 2 representatives handling inquiries. Calls occurring when both lines are in use get a busy signal. Each representative can handle 12 calls per hour. The arrival rate is 20 calls per hour.
Required:
a. How many extension lines should be used if the company wants to handle 90% of the calls immediately?
b. What is the probability that a call will receive a busy signal if your recommendation in part (a) is used?
c. What percentage of calls receive a busy signal for the current telephone system with two extension lines?
Answer:
A. 18 calls
B. 0.9
C. 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of representatives=2,
Number of extension lines=2,
Average calls each representative can accommodate per hour = 15 calls,
Arrival rate per hour = 30 calls
(a) 90% of the arrival rate = 0.09 × 20 = 18 calls
To handle 18 calls immediately, 18 extension lines should be used
(b) Probability is given by number of possible outcomes ÷ number of total outcomes
Number of possible outcomes = 18, number of total outcomes = 20
Probability (call will receive busy signal) = 18/20 = 0.9
(c) For one extension line, numbers of calls to receive busy signal = 20 - 10 = 10 calls
Number of calls to receive busy signal for the current telephone system with two extension lines = 2 × 10 = 20 calls

amy shoots a 100 arrows at a target each arrow with a probability 0.2 what is the probability that at most one of her first 10 arrows hits the target
Answer:
0.3758 = 37.58% probability that at most one of her first 10 arrows hits the target
Step-by-step explanation:
For each shot, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they hit the target, or they do not. The probability of a shot hitting the target is independent of any other shot, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
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.
Each arrow with a probability 0.2
This means that [tex]p = 0.2[/tex]
First 10 arrows
This means that [tex]n = 10[/tex]
What is the probability that at most one of her first 10 arrows hits the target?
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}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{10} = 0.1074[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.2)^{1}.(0.8)^{9} = 0.2684[/tex]
Then
[tex]P(X \leq 1) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.1074 + 0.2684 = 0.3758[/tex]
0.3758 = 37.58% probability that at most one of her first 10 arrows hits the target
Two mechanics worked on a car. The first mechanic worked for 10 hours, and the second mechanic worked for 5 hours. Together they charged a total of $1125. What was the rate charged per hour by each mechanic if the sum of the two rates was $140 per hour?
Answer:
The first mechanic charged $ 85 an hour, and the second mechanic charged $ 55 an hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that two mechanics worked on a car, and the first mechanic worked for 10 hours, and the second mechanic worked for 5 hours, and together they charged a total of $ 1125, to determine what was the rate charged per hour by each mechanic if the sum of the two rates was $ 140 per hour, the following calculation must be performed:
1125/15 = X
75 = X
80 x 10 + 60 x 5 = 800 + 300 = 1100
85 x 10 + 55 x 5 = 850 + 275 = 1125
Therefore, the first mechanic charged $ 85 an hour, and the second mechanic charged $ 55 an hour.
Help please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1. The area of a square is less than 25cm2. What can we say about
a. The length of one of its sides?
b. Its perimeter?
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us take a nominal square of area 25 cm².
It's length of one of it's sides will be √25 = 5 cm².It's perimeter will be 5*4 = 20 cm.So, in this question, we can say that:-
a. The length of one of its sides will be less than 5 cm.
b. Its perimeter will be less than 20 cm.
Hope it helps :)
Step-by-step explanation:
area= 25cm squared
length of one side = 5cm as 5*5 =25
perimeter= 5*4= 20cm
But since the area is less than 25cm squared
we can say that the length of one side is less than 5cm and we can also say that the length of the perimeter is less than 20cm.
Hope this helps.

Answer:
6.09 is the answer rounded to nearest hundredths.
Step-by-step explanation:
It gives you n=150, p=0.55, and q=1-p.
If p=0.55 and q=1-p, then by substitution property we have q=1-0.55=0.45.
It ask you to evaluate the expression sqrt(npq).
So npq means find the product of 150 and 0.55 and 0.45. So that is 150(0.55)(0.45)=37.125.
The sqrt(npq) means we need to find the square root of that product. So sqrt(37.125)=6.093 approximately .
Describe the motion of a particle with position (x, y) as t varies in the given interval. (For each answer, enter an ordered pair of the form x, y.) x = 1 + sin(t), y = 3 + 2 cos(t), π/2 ≤ t ≤ 2π
Answer:
The motion of the particle describes an ellipse.
Step-by-step explanation:
The characteristics of the motion of the particle is derived by eliminating [tex]t[/tex] in the parametric expressions. Since both expressions are based on trigonometric functions, we proceed to use the following trigonometric identity:
[tex]\cos^{2} t + \sin^{2} t = 1[/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]\cos t = \frac{y-3}{2}[/tex] (2)
[tex]\sin t = x - 1[/tex] (3)
By (2) and (3) in (1):
[tex]\left(\frac{y-3}{2} \right)^{2} + (x-1)^{2} = 1[/tex]
[tex]\frac{(x-1)^{2}}{1}+\frac{(y-3)^{2}}{4} = 1[/tex] (4)
The motion of the particle describes an ellipse.
rewrite 1/6 and 2/11 so they have a common denominator then use <, =, or > to order
Answer:
1/6 < 2/11
Step-by-step explanation:
1/6 = 2/12
2/11 >2/12
So that means 1/6 < 2/11
Answer: 1/6 < 2/11
This is the same as saying 11/66 < 12/66
===========================================================
Explanation:
1/6 is the same as 11/66 when multiplying top and bottom by 11.
2/11 is the same as 12/66 when multiplying top and bottom by 6.
The 6 and 11 multipliers are from the original denominators (just swapped).
We can see that 11/66 is smaller than 12/66, simply because 11 < 12, so that means 1/6 is smaller than 2/11
-----------------
Here's one way you could list out the steps
11 < 12
11/66 < 12/66
1/6 < 2/11
------------------
Here's another way to list out the steps. First assume that 1/6 and 2/11 are equal. Cross multiplication then leads to
1/6 = 2/11
1*11 = 6*2
11 = 12
Which is false. But we can fix this by replacing every equal sign with a less than sign
1/6 < 2/11
1*11 < 6*2
11 < 12
---------------------
Yet another way to see which is smaller is to use your calculator or long division to find the decimal form of each value
1/6 = 0.1667 approximately
2/11 = 0.1818 approximately
We see that 0.1667 is smaller than 0.1818, which must mean 1/6 is smaller than 2/11.

Solve the system of linear equations below.
6x + 3y = 33
4x + y = 15
A.
x = 2, y = 7
B.
x = -13, y = 7
C.
x = - 2/3, y = 12 2/3
D.
x = 5, y = 1
Answer:
The answer for both linear equations is A. x = 2, y = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
First start by plugging in the variables with the given numbers (2,7). We'll start with 6x + 3y = 33.
6x + 3y = 33
6 (2) + 3 (7 )= 33 <--- This is the equation after the numbers are plugged in.
12 + 10 = 33
33 = 33 <---- This statement is true, therefore it is the correct pair.
Now we are not done, to confirm that this pair works with both equations we need to solve for 4x + y = 15 to see if it works. Linear Equations must have the variables work on both equations.
4x + y = 15 <----- We are going to do the exact same thing to this equation.
4(2) + 7 = 15
8 + 7 = 15
15 = 15 <-- 15=15 is a true statement therefore this pair works for this equation.
Therefore,
A. x = 2, y = 7 is the correct answer

In a survey, 24 people were asked how much they spent on their child's last birthday gift. The results were roughly bell-shaped with a mean of $42 and standard deviation of $2. Construct a confidence interval at a 98% confidence level.
Answer:
The 98% confidence interval for the mean amount spent on their child's last birthday gift is between $40.98 and $43.02.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 24 - 1 = 23
98% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 23 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.99[/tex]. So we have T = 2.5
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.5\frac{2}{\sqrt{24}} = 1.02[/tex]
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 42 - 1.02 = $40.98.
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 42 + 1.02 = $43.02.
The 98% confidence interval for the mean amount spent on their child's last birthday gift is between $40.98 and $43.02.

19. In a random sample of 250 students, we found that 75 work out 4 or more times a week. Find the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of students who work out 4 or more times a week.
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of students who work out 4 or more times a week is (0.2432, 0.3568).
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
In a random sample of 250 students, we found that 75 work out 4 or more times a week.
This means that [tex]n = 250, \pi = \frac{75}{250} = 0.3[/tex]
95% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].
The lower limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.3 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.3*0.7}{250}} = 0.2432[/tex]
The upper limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.3 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.3*0.7}{250}} = 0.3568[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of students who work out 4 or more times a week is (0.2432, 0.3568).

hence,
0=255-21t-16t²
16t²+21t-225=0
here a=16 ,b=21, c= -225
[tex]t= \frac{ - b± \sqrt{ {b }^{2} - 4ac} }{2a} \\ \\ t= \frac{ - 21± \sqrt{ {21}^{2} - 4 \times 16 \times - 225} }{2 \times 16} \\ = \frac{ - 21 ± \sqrt{441 - ( - 14400)} }{32} \\ = \frac{ - 21± \sqrt{14841} }{32} \\ = \frac{ - 21±121.82}{32} \\ \\ t = \frac{ - 21 + 121.82}{32} \: or \: \: t = \frac{ - 21 - 121.82}{32} \\ t = 3.15 \: \: or \: \: t = - 4.46[/tex]
time cannot be negative, hence t = -4.46 can be avoided

Which statement best describes g(x) = 3x + 6 - 8 and the parent function f(x) = } ?
The domains of g(x) and f(x) are the same, but their ranges are not the same.
* The ranges of g(x) and f(x) are the same, but their domains are not the same.
The ranges of g(x) and f(x) are the same, and their domains are also the same.
The domains of g(x) and f(x) are the not the same, and their ranges are also not the same.
Answer:
In general gf(x) is not equal to fg(x)
Some pairs of functions cannot be composed. Some pairs of functions can be composed only for certain values of x.
Only with they can be composed some values of x are the ranges of g(x) and f(x) are the same, and their domains are also the same. Or else lies inside it.
Step-by-step explanation:
g(x) = 3x + 6 - 8, f(x) = √x.
The domain of a composed function is either the same as the domain of the first function, or else lies inside it
The range of a composed function is either the same as the range of the second function, or else lies inside it.
Or vice versa
Now only positive numbers, or zero, have real square roots. So g is defined only for numbers
greater than or equal to zero. Therefore g(f(x)) can have a value only if f(x) is greater than or
equal to zero. You can work out that
f(x) ≥ 0 only when x ≥3/2

Use the box below to show clearly how you get your answer.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
this is the famous dirt formula, :P I made it up :D
D=rt ( notice it looks like Dirt , kinda, but it also means it dirt simple )
D= distance
r = rate ( think speed or how fast)
t = time ( in what ever units of time you want to use, seconds, minutes, hours )
13:28 - 11:20 = 128 minutes ( b/c the question is asking in MPH convert to hours) 2.4666667 hours
210 miles = r * 2.46666667
210 / 2.46666667 = r ( in MPH) ( does anyone else find it odd that they are saying miles in London instead of kilometers? :/ )
85.135 MPH = rate
so no, not even close to 104 MPH :/
Answer:
Average speed is 98 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{distance (miles)}{time (hours)}[/tex] = speed [tex]\frac{mile}{hours}[/tex] (miles per hour is a ratio)
The time is 2 hours and 8 minutes.
[tex]\frac{8}{60}[/tex] = .13333 ( 8 minutes / 60 minutes in a hour)
So time is 2.133333 hours .
Divide the distance 210 by the time 2.13333 and get the speed.
Its 98.437..
Round to 98 miles per hour.

Sara is working on a Geometry problem in her Algebra class. The problem requires Sara to use the two quadrilaterals below to answer a list of questions.
Part A: For what one value of are the perimeters of the quadrilaterals the same? (Hint: The perimeter of a quadrilateral is the sum of its sides.)
Part B: For what one value of are the areas of the quadrilaterals the same? (Hint: The area of a quadrilateral is the product of its base and height.)
Answer:
For the perimeters, x must be equal to 2.
For the areas, it is either undefined, or something.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can first find the perimeters for both sides.
For the left shape, we add the two sides of 6 and x + 4 to get x + 10.
Then we multiply x + 10 by 2 because there are 4 sides, and we only got 2 sides.
The perimeter of the first shape is 2x + 20.
The second shape can be solved by doing the same thing by adding 2 and 3x + 4 to get 3x + 6.
3x + 6 times 2 is 6x + 12.
The second perimeter is 6x + 12.
If both sides are supposed to be equal, then we can write these two expressions we solved for like:
6x + 12 = 2x + 20.
Subtraction property of equality
6x + 12 - 12 = 2x + 20 - 12
Simplify
6x = 2x + 8
Again
6x - 2x = 2x - 2x + 8
Simplify
4x = 8
Division property of equality
4/4x = 8/4
Simplify
x = 2
So if x = 2, the perimeters will be the same.
You can confirm this by plugging it back into either equation.
For the areas, we just multiply the length and width for both shapes, so we get
6(x+4) = 2(3x+4)
Since they are supposed to be equal.
We simplify and get
6x + 24 = 6x + 8
We know this is false and is not possible, since we can remove the 6x because it is on both sides.
We also know that 24 is not equal to 8 (who thought!)
:D
24 ≠ 8
So it is undefined or whatever you call it.
Two lamps marked 100 W - 110 V and 100 W - 220 V are connected i
series across a 220 V line. What power is consumed in each lamp?
The power consumed in the lamp marked 100W - 110V is 15.68W
The power consumed in the lamp marked 100W - 220V is 62.73W
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
First lamp rating
Power (P) = 100W
Voltage (V) = 110V
Second lamp rating
Power (P) = 100W
Voltage (V) = 220V
Source
Voltage = 220V
i. Get the resistance of each lamp.
Remember that power (P) of each of the lamps is given by the quotient of the square of their voltage ratings (V) and their resistances (R). i.e
P = [tex]\frac{V^2}{R}[/tex]
Make R subject of the formula
⇒ R = [tex]\frac{V^2}{P}[/tex] ------------------(i)
For first lamp, let the resistance be R₁. Now substitute R = R₁, V = 110V and P = 100W into equation (i)
R₁ = [tex]\frac{110^2}{100}[/tex]
R₁ = 121Ω
For second lamp, let the resistance be R₂. Now substitute R = R₂, V = 220V and P = 100W into equation (i)
R₂ = [tex]\frac{220^2}{100}[/tex]
R₂ = 484Ω
ii. Get the equivalent resistance of the resistances of the lamps.
Since the lamps are connected in series, their equivalent resistance (R) is the sum of their individual resistances. i.e
R = R₁ + R₂
R = 121 + 484
R = 605Ω
iii. Get the current flowing through each of the lamps.
Since the lamps are connected in series, then the same current flows through them. This current (I) is produced by the source voltage (V = 220V) of the line and their equivalent resistance (R = 605Ω). i.e
V = IR [From Ohm's law]
I = [tex]\frac{V}{R}[/tex]
I = [tex]\frac{220}{605}[/tex]
I = 0.36A
iv. Get the power consumed by each lamp.
From Ohm's law, the power consumed is given by;
P = I²R
Where;
I = current flowing through the lamp
R = resistance of the lamp.
For the first lamp, power consumed is given by;
P = I²R [Where I = 0.36 and R = 121Ω]
P = (0.36)² x 121
P = 15.68W
For the second lamp, power consumed is given by;
P = I²R [Where I = 0.36 and R = 484Ω]
P = (0.36)² x 484
P = 62.73W
Therefore;
The power consumed in the lamp marked 100W - 110V is 15.68W
The power consumed in the lamp marked 100W - 220V is 62.73W
The Blacktop Speedway is a supplier of automotive parts. Included in stock are 7 speedometers that are correctly calibrated and two that are not. Three speedometers are randomly selected without replacement. Let the random variable z represent the number that are not correctly calibrated.

1 0.5
2 0.0833
3 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The speedometers are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.
Hypergeometric distribution:
The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:
[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]
In which:
x is the number of successes.
N is the size of the population.
n is the size of the sample.
k is the total number of desired outcomes.
In this question:
7 + 2 = 9 speedometers, which means that [tex]N = 9[/tex]
2 are not correctly calibrated, which means that [tex]k = 2[/tex]
3 are chosen, which means that [tex]n = 3[/tex]
Complete the probability distribution table.
Probability of each outcome.
So
[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = h(0,9,3,2) = \frac{C_{2,0}*C_{7,3}}{C_{9,3}} = 0.4167[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = h(1,9,3,2) = \frac{C_{2,1}*C_{7,2}}{C_{9,3}} = 0.5[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = h(2,9,3,2) = \frac{C_{2,2}*C_{7,1}}{C_{9,3}} = 0.0833[/tex]
Only 2 defective, so [tex]P(X = 3) = 0[/tex]
Probability distribution table:
x P(x)
0 0.4167
1 0.5
2 0.0833
3 0
