Answer:
17.5 days
Step-by-step explanation:
The half life of this element is five days.
For the first five days it will decrease to 100*0.5=50%.
For the second five days it will decrease to 50*0.5= 25%
For the third five days it will decrease to 25*0.5 = 12.25%
It means in each day in the five days it reduce 0.1 of the it's remaining amount.
12.5 - 9 = 3.5 %
0.5 of 12.5 = 6.25%
It's going to be 15 days + 2.5 days= 17.5 days
Two hundred undergraduate students were randomly selected from a university that has 47,000 students in total. Systolic blood pressure was tested on the 200 students. The sample mean is 118.0 mmHg and the sample standard deviation is 11.0 mmHg. Please construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean of students' systolic blood pressure. Which one of the following results is the closest to your answer? (Hint: use 1.96 as the critical z-value)
a. [110.5, 125.5]
b. [112.5, 123.5]
c. [114.5, 121.5]
d. [116.5, 119.5]
Answer:
The correct option is d
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The population size is [tex]N = 47000[/tex]
The sample size is [tex]n = 200[/tex]
The sample mean is [tex]\= x = 118.0 \ mmHg[/tex]
The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 11.0 \ mmHg[/tex]
Given that the confidence level is 95% then the level of significance can be calculated as
[tex]\alpha = 100 - 95[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 5 \%[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]
Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from z-table , the value is [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = Z_{\frac{0.05 }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]
The reason we are obtaining critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] instead of [tex]\alpha[/tex] is because
[tex]\alpha[/tex] represents the area under the normal curve where the confidence level interval ( [tex]1-\alpha[/tex]) did not cover which include both the left and right tail while
[tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is just the area of one tail which what we required to calculate the margin of error .
NOTE: We can also obtain the value using critical value calculator (math dot armstrong dot edu)
Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as
[tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } *\frac{\sigma }{ \sqrt{n} }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]E = 1.96 *\frac{11.0 }{ \sqrt{200} }[/tex]
[tex]E = 1.5245[/tex]
The 95% confidence level interval is mathematically represented as
[tex]\= x - E < \mu < \= x + E[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]118.0 - 1.5245 < \mu < 118.0 + 1.5245[/tex]
[tex]116.5< \mu < 119.5[/tex]

The population mean annual salary for environmental compliance specialists is about $63 comma 500. A random sample of 31 specialists is drawn from this population. What is the probability that the mean salary of the sample is less than $60 comma 500? Assume sigmaequals$6 comma 200.4
Answer:
0.0035289
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question;
mean annual salary = $63,500
n = sample size = 31
Standard deviation = $6,200
Firstly, we calculate the z-score of $60,500
Mathematically;
z-score = x-mean/SD/√n = (60500-63500)/6200/√(31) = -2.6941
So we want to find the probability that P(z < -2.6941)
We can get this from the standard normal table
P( z < -2.6941) = 0.0035289

Identify the correct trigonometry formula to use to solve for x.
Answer:
The answer is option 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to apply Cosine Rule, cosθ = adjacent/hypotenuse. Then, you have to substitute the values into the formula :
[tex]cos(θ) = \frac{adj.}{hypo.} [/tex]
[tex]let \: θ = 55[/tex]
[tex]let \: adj. = 11[/tex]
[tex]let \: hypo. = x[/tex]
[tex]cos(55) = \frac{11}{x} [/tex]
The correct trigonometry formula to use to solve for x is [tex]\frac{11}{x}[/tex] . Thus option 1 is correct.
According to the question, we have
base = 11
hypotenuse = x
here for [tex]cos Ф[/tex]Ф, it is not required to find the value of perpendicular,
we know that in a right-angle triangle using trigonometric ratio, we get
[tex]cos Ф[/tex] Ф = [tex]\frac{base }{hypotenuse}[/tex]
[tex]cos Ф[/tex] Ф = [tex]\frac{11}{x}[/tex]
here Ф = [tex]55 ^0[/tex]
[tex]cos 55^o = \frac{11}{x}[/tex]
Thus, the value of the trigonometry formula to use to solve for x is [tex]\frac{11}{x}[/tex].
Thus option 1 is correct.

Could anyone help me with this? T+S+U=130 T=3(U) S= T+10 U= ?? I need to decipher the value of T,S and U.
Answer:
U = 17 1/7
T = 51 3/7
S = 61 3/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
T+S+U=130\
T=3(U)
S= T+10 we have to find value of u
First step:
find S and T in terms of U
T is given
T = 3U
S = T +10 , using T = 3U
S = 3U+10
Using the above value in T+S+U=130
3U + 3U+10 + U = 130
=> 7U = 130-10 = 120
=> U = 120/7 = 17 1/7
T = 3U = 3*120/7 = 360/7 = 51 3/7
S = T+10 = 360/7 + 10 = (360+70)/7 = 430/7 = 61 3/7
Thus,
U = 17 1/7
T = 51 3/7
S = 61 3/7
There are 100 people in a wedding house, including children, men and women, and there are 100 pappadas to give with Sadya Te.

1/2 pappadam for children
Then there are how many children there are, how many men, how many women
Answer:
Two possible sets of answers.
5 men, 11 women and 42 children, or
10 men, 2 women and 88 children
Selamat Sadhya!
Step-by-step explanation:
M = number of men
W = number of women
100-M-W = number of children
Total number of pappadas
5M+3W+(100-M-W)/2 = 100
Solve for W
W = (100-9M)/5 .......................(1)
Examine equation (1).
In order to have W as a whole number, M must be multiple of 5
Therefore M = 5 or 10
If M = 5, W = (100-45)/5 = 11 and children = 100-5-11 = 84
If M = 10, W = (100-90)/5 = 2 and children = 100-10-2 = 88

Write an equation of the line that passes through the point (5, -8) with slope 5
Answer:
y=5x-33
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given a point and a slope. Use the slope-intercept formula.
[tex]y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1} )[/tex]
where (x1, y1) is a point on the line and m is the slope.
The slope is 5 and the point is (5,-8).
x1=5
y1= -8
m=5
[tex]y--8 =5(x-5 )[/tex]
We want to find the equation of the line, which is y=mx+b (m is the slope and b is the y-intercept). Therefore, we must get y by itself on one side of the equation.
[tex]y+8=5(x-5)[/tex]
First, distribute the 5 on the right side of the equation. Multiply each term inside the parentheses by 5.
[tex]y+8=(5*x)+(5*-5)[/tex]
[tex]y+8=5x-25[/tex]
Next, subtract 8 from both sides since it is being added on to y.
[tex]y+8-8=5x-25-8[/tex]
[tex]y=5x-25-8[/tex]
[tex]y=5x-33[/tex]
The equation of the line is: y=5x-33
The perimeter of the rectangle below is 132 units.
Answer:
The answer is 29 unit.
Step-by-step explanation:
Here,
given that,
DC (l) =4z+1
CD (b)=5z+2
perimeter (p)= 132
now,
perimeter of rectangle (p) is= 2(l+b)
or, 132 = 2×{(4z+1)+(5z+2)}
or, 132= 2×(9z+3)
or, 132= 18z+6
or, 18z=132-6
or, z=126/18
or, z= 7.
therefore, 4z+1=4×7+1=29
5z+2= 5×7+2=37.
As our question is about to find AB,
DC = AB. (as opposite side of rectangle is equal).
so, the valueof AB is 29unit.

One positive number is 4 more than twice another. Their product is 198
Answer:
[tex]\large \boxed{\sf \ \ 9 \text{ and } 22 \ \ }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,
We can write that, x being the second number
(4 + 2*x) *x = 198
Let's solve this equation.
[tex](4+2x)x=198\\\\4x+2x^2=198 \\\\\text{*** subtract 198 from both sides ***}\\\\2x^2+4x-198 = 0\\\\\text{*** The product of the zeroes is -198/2=-99=-11*9 and their sum is -4/2=-2 ***}\\\\2x^2+4x-198=2(x-9)(x+11)=0\\\\x=9 \ \ or \ \ x=-11[/tex]
We are looking for positive number so the solution is 9.
And the first number is 4 + 2 * 9 = 4 + 18 = 22
Hope this helps.
Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.
Thank you
Answer:
22 and 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the positive number be x.
Let the other number be y.
x = 2y + 4
xy = 198
Substitute x as 2y + 4 in the second equation.
(2y+4)y = 198
2y² + 4y = 198
2y² + 4y - 198 = 0
2(y-9)(y+11) = 0
y-9=0 or y+11=0
y=9
y=-11
The product is 198, so y is positive.
x(9)=198

Answer:
√468 = 6√13
Step-by-step explanation:
ABCDEF is a regular hexagon of side length 6.
A'B'C'D'E'F' is the reflection of ABCDEF across BC.
The line FE' is the line from F to E'. It is also the hypotenuse of the right triangle FEE'. FE = 6, and EE' = 4a, where a is the apothem of the hexagon.
To find the apothem, draw the 30-60-90 triangle formed by the apothem and the radius (essentially 1/12th of the hexagon).
Using properties of a 30-60-90 triangle:
a = (6/2)√3
a = 3√3
4a = 12√3
Using Pythagorean theorem:
x² = (6)² + (12√3)²
x² = 36 + 432
x = √468
x = 6√13
1. What are foci? 2. What is the first step to take to write the equation of a hyperbola? 3. How do you represent parts of a hyperbola algebraically?
Answer: see below
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Foci is plural for Focus. Since a hyperbola has two focus points, they are referred to as foci. The foci is where the sum of the distances from any point on the curve to the foci is constant.
2) When determining the equation of a hyperbola you need the following:
a) does the hyperbola open up or to the right?
b) what is the center (h, k) of the hyperbola?
c) What is the slope of the asymptotes of the hyperbola?
3) The equation of a hyperbola is:
[tex]\dfrac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}-\dfrac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1\qquad or\qquad \dfrac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}-\dfrac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}=1[/tex]
(h, k) is the center of the hyperbola± b/a is the slope of the line of the asymptotesThe equation starts with the "x" if it opens to the right and "y" if it opens upcan someone EXPLAIN this to me? you don't have to answer the questions. They are for my college class. Last assignment! thank you..

Find the area of the shaded region.
Answer:
The answer would be 27π
Step-by-step explanation:
the area is 36pi and the shaded region is 3/4 of the circle, as a 90 degree angle is 1/4 of a 360 degree circle. 3/4 of 36pi is 27pi
Answer:
27π
Step-by-step explanation:
Imagine that this circle was complete. As you can see, only 3 / 4th of the circle remains, with respect to this whole circle. This is not an assumption, though it does appear so. The portion missing forms a right angle with the radii, and thus by definition, that portion is a quarter of a circle.
________
The simplest approach is to assume this circle to be complete, and solve for that area - provided the radii being 6 inches. Afterward we can take 3 / 4th of this area, solving for the area of the shaded region. After all, this circle is 3 / 4ths of our " complete circle. "
Area of an Imaginary " Complete Circle " = π[tex]r^2[/tex] = π[tex](6)^2[/tex] = 36π,
Area of Shaded Region ( 3 / 4th of the " Complete Circle " ) = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]( 36π ) = 27π
27π is the exact area of the shaded region. If you want an approximated area, take π as 3.14, or a similar quantity to that.
Every cereal box has a gift inside, but you cannot tell from the outside what the gift is. The store manager assures you that 18 of the 52 boxes on the shelf have the secret decoder ring. The other 34 boxes on the shelf have a different gift inside. If you randomly select two boxes of cereal from the shelf to purchase, what is the probability that BOTH of them have the secret decoder ring?
Answer:
3/26
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of the first box to have the secret decoder ring is 18 out of 52:
18/52= 9/26Probability of the second box to have the ring is 17 out of 51, because one box with the ring already selected and not counted:
17/51= 1/3Probability that both of them have the secret decoder ring:
9/26*1/3= 3/26So the answer is 3/26

Step-by-step explanation:
There are 29 squares shaded in. In all, there are 100 squares in the 10 × 10 square, so there are 29 shaded squares out of 100 squares in all. That is basically:
[tex]\frac{29}{100}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{29}{100}[/tex] can be converted to 0.29.
Answer:
0.29
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the grid is a 10x10, it means there are 100 total 'blocks' in the grid. So, since there are 29 shaded in out of the 100 'blocks total, the decimal would be .29, since the decimal means 29 hundredths, and it also means that there is 29 hundredths of the total grid shaded in.
