(b) The life spans of three randomly selected tires are 30,500 miles, 37,250 miles, and 35,000 miles. Using the Empirical Rule, find the percentile that corresponds to each life span.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

mean life span of a brand of automobile = 35,000

standard deviation of a brand of automobile = 2250 miles.

the z-score that corresponds to each life span are as follows.

the standard z- score formula is:

[tex]z = \dfrac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

For x = 34000

[tex]z = \dfrac{34000 - 35000}{2250}[/tex]

[tex]z = \dfrac{-1000}{2250}[/tex]

z = −0.4444

For x = 37000

[tex]z = \dfrac{37000 - 35000}{2250}[/tex]

[tex]z = \dfrac{2000}{2250}[/tex]

z = 0.8889

For x = 3000

[tex]z = \dfrac{30000 - 35000}{2250}[/tex]

[tex]z = \dfrac{-5000}{2250}[/tex]

z = -2.222

From the above z- score that corresponds to their life span; it is glaring  that the tire with the life span 30,000 miles has an unusually short life span.

For x = 30,500

[tex]z = \dfrac{30500 - 35000}{2250}[/tex]

[tex]z = \dfrac{-4500}{2250}[/tex]

z = -2

P(z) = P(-2)

Using excel function (=NORMDIST -2)

P(z) = 0.022750132

P(z) = 2.28th percentile

For x =  37250

[tex]z = \dfrac{37250 - 35000}{2250}[/tex]

[tex]z = \dfrac{2250}{2250}[/tex]

z = 1

Using excel function (=NORMDIST 1)

P(z) = 0.841344746

P(z) = 84.14th percentile

For x = 35000

[tex]z = \dfrac{35000- 35000}{2250}[/tex]

[tex]z = \dfrac{0}{2250}[/tex]

z = 0

Using excel function (=NORMDIST 0)

P(z) = 0.5

P(z) = 50th percentile

Answer 2

a.  The z score of each life span should be -0.4444, 0.889, and 2.2222.

b.  The percentile of each life span should be 0.0228, 0.8413 and  0.5000.

Given that,

mean life span of 35,000 miles, with a standard deviation of 2250 miles.

The calculation is as follows:

(a)

The z score should be

[tex]Z1 = \frac{34000-35000}{2250} = -0.4444\\\\Z2 = \frac{37000-35000}{2250} = 0.8889\\\\Z3 = \frac{30000-35000}{2250} = -2.2222\\\\[/tex]

The tire with life span of 30000 miles would be considered unusual

(b)

The percentile should be

[tex]Z1 = \frac{30500-35000}{2250} = -2[/tex]

p(Z1 < -2) = NORMSDIST(-2) = 0.0228

[tex]Z2 = \frac{37250-35000}{2250} = 1[/tex]

p(Z2 < 1) = NORMSDIST(1) = 0.8413

[tex]Z3 = \frac{35000-35000}{2250} = 0[/tex]

p(Z3 < 0) = NORMSDIST(0) = 0.5000

The ratio of the legs of a trapezoid is 1:2, and the sum of the angles adjacent to the bigger base is 120°. Find the angle measures of the given trapezoid.

Answers

Answer:

The angle measures of the trapezoid consists of two angles of 60º adjacent to the bigger base and two angles of 120º adjacent to the smaller base.

Step-by-step explanation:

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral that is symmetrical and whose bases are of different length and in every quadrilateral the sum of internal angles is equal to 360º. The bigger base has the pair of adjacent angles of least measure, whereas the smaller base has the pair of adjancent angles of greatest measure.

Since the sum of the angles adjacent to bigger base is 120º, the value of each adjacent angle ([tex]\alpha[/tex]) is obtained under the consideration of symmetry:

[tex]2\cdot \alpha = 120^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]\alpha = 60^{\circ}[/tex]

The sum of the angles adjacent to smaller base is: ([tex]\alpha = 60^{\circ}[/tex])

[tex]2\cdot \alpha + 2\cdot \beta = 360^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]2\cdot \beta = 360^{\circ} - 2\cdot \alpha[/tex]

[tex]\beta = 180^{\circ}-\alpha[/tex]

[tex]\beta = 180^{\circ} - 60^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]\beta = 120^{\circ}[/tex]

The angle measures of the trapezoid consists of two angles of 60º adjacent to the bigger base and two angles of 120º adjacent to the smaller base.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement indicates that segments AB and BC must be orthogonal. Vectorially speaking, this can be expressed by using the following expression from Linear Algebra:

[tex]\overrightarrow {AB} \bullet \overrightarrow {BC} = 0[/tex]

[tex](AB_{x}, AB_{y})\bullet (BC_{x},BC_{y}) = 0[/tex]

[tex]AB_{x}\cdot BC_{x} + AB_{y}\cdot BC_{y} = 0[/tex]

[tex]\overrightarrow {BC} = (-6, 46)[/tex]

[tex]\overrightarrow {AB} \bullet \overrightarrow {BC} = (9, 3)\bullet (-6, 46)[/tex]

[tex]\overrightarrow{AB} \bullet \overrightarrow {BC} = (9)\cdot (-6) + (3) \cdot (46)[/tex]

[tex]\overrightarrow{AB}\bullet \overrightarrow {BC} = 84[/tex]

AB and BC are not orthogonal.

ii) A = (-10, 5), B = (12, 16), C = (6, 52)

[tex]\overrightarrow {AB} = \vec B - \vec A[/tex]

What is the measure of x?​

Answers

Answer:

9 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the line 10 in. and line 4 in. are parallel, then the two triangles are similar.

As such, the ratio of the sides would give the same results.

Hence,

4/6 = 10/(6 + x)

cross multiplying

4(6 + x) = 60

Dividing both sides by 4

6 + x = 15

collecting like terms

x = 15 - 6

= 9

Answers

Answer:

101.98 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please refer to the diagram that I drew (sorry for the messiness; I do not own a stylus and so I was using my mouse to try to draw it).

Since the triangle is a right triangle, you can use SOH CAH TOA. In this case, you are trying to figure out the opposite length, but you are given the adjacent. So, we will use tangent to solve this (TOA = Tangent, Opposite over Adjacent).

The angle is 22.6 degrees, and the tangent of the angle is equivalent to the opposite length, x, divided by the adjacent length, 245 yards.

tan(22.6) = x / 245

x / 245 = tan(22.6)

x = tan(22.6) * 245

x = 0.4162598242 * 245

x = 101.9836569

So, you are about 101.98 yards from the cabin.

A bus company has contracted with a local high school to carry 450 students on a field trip. The company has 18 large buses which can carry up to 30 students and 19 small buses which can carry up to 15 students. There are only 20 drivers available on the day of the field trip.
The total cost of operating one large bus is $225 a day, and the total cost of operating one small bus is $100 per day.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the big buses and y represent small buses. The large buses can carry 30 students and the small buses can carry 15 students. The total number of students are 450, this can be represented by the inequality:

30x + 15y ≤ 450

They are only 20 drivers, therefore only 20 buses can be used. It is represented by:

x + y ≤ 20

They  are only 19 small buses and 18 large buses:

x ≤ 18

y ≤ 19

After plotting the graph, the minimum solution to the graph are at:

A (15,0), B(18,0), C(10, 10), D(18, 2).

The cost function is given as:

The total cost of operating one large bus is $225 a day, and the total cost of operating one small bus is $100 per day.

F(x, y) = 225x + 100y

At point A:

F(x, y) = 225(15) + 100(0) = $3375

At point B:

F(x, y) = 225(18) + 100(0) = $4050

At point C:

F(x, y) = 225(10) + 100(10) = $3250

At point D:

F(x, y) = 225(18) + 100(2) = $4250

The minimum cost is at point C(10, 10) which is $3250

Answers

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

Answers

Your questions are rational expressions.

Essentially, you are adding/subtracting fractions with unknown values (i.e. the variable x).

If you want to add/subtract these, you need a common denominator. Just like you find a CD in 1/2 + 1/3, you have to find a CD between x^2 + x and x (question 20).

Rearranging gives us x(x + 1) and x. Now to find a common denominator, we multiply both the denominator by (x + 1), so now our denominators are both x(x+1) (common). Except that if we multiply on the denominator, we must also multiply on the numerator.

After doing these steps, you can finally add the numerator. Same concept with subtraction.

The report states that under these conditions, the maximum allowable stopping distance is 30. A normal probability plot validates the assumption that stopping distance is normally distributed.

Required:
a. Does the data suggest that true average stopping distance exceeds this maximum value? Test the appropriate hypotheses using α= 0.01.
b. Calculate the test statistic and determine the P-value.
c. What can you conclude?

Answers

Answer:

We conclude that the true average stopping distance exceeds this maximum value.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following observations that are on stopping distance (ft) of a particular truck at 20 mph under specified experimental conditions.;

X = 32.1, 30.9, 31.6, 30.4, 31.0, 31.9.

Let [tex]\mu[/tex] = true average stopping distance

So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu \leq[/tex] 30      {means that the true average stopping distance exceeds this maximum value}

Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] > 30      {means that the true average stopping distance exceeds this maximum value}

The test statistics that will be used here is One-sample t-test statistics because we don't know about population standard deviation;

                              T.S.  =  [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]  ~ [tex]t_n_-_1[/tex]

where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample mean stopping distance = [tex]\frac{\sum X}{n}[/tex] = 31.32 ft

            s = sample standard deviation = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{\sum (X-\bar X)^{2} }{n-1} }[/tex] = 0.66 ft

            n = sample size = 6

So, the test statistics =  [tex]\frac{31.32-30}{\frac{0.66}{\sqrt{6} } }[/tex]  ~  [tex]t_5[/tex]

                                    =  4.898

The value of t-test statistics is 4.898.

Now, at 0.01 level of significance, the t table gives a critical value of 3.365 at 5 degrees of freedom for the right-tailed test.

Since the value of our test statistics is more than the critical value of t as 4.898 > 3.365, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region.

Therefore, we conclude that the true average stopping distance exceeds this maximum value.

[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

x=22

For what value of k are the roots of the quadratic equation kx (x-2)+6=0 equal?​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\sf k=6}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\sf kx (x-2)+6=0[/tex]

Expand brackets.

[tex]\sf kx^2 -2kx+6=0[/tex]

This is in quadratic form.

[tex]\sf ax^2 +bx+c=0[/tex]

Since this is for equal roots:

[tex]\sf b^2 -4ac=0[/tex]

[tex]\sf a=k\\b=-2k\\c=6[/tex]

[tex]\sf (-2k)^2 -4(k)(6)=0[/tex]

[tex]\sf 4k^2-24k=0[/tex]

[tex]\sf 4k(k-6)=0[/tex]

[tex]\sf 4k=0\\k=0[/tex]

[tex]\sf k-6=0\\k=6[/tex]

Plug k as 0 to check.

[tex]\sf \sf 0x^2 -2(0)x+6=0\\6=0[/tex]

False.

So that means k must equal 6.

What is the measure of XYZ, given that yz and xy are tangent to ?



A.
212

B.
127

C.
106

D.
53

Answers

Answer:

D) 53 Degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Things we need to establish beforehand: We know that Lines OZ and OX are equal because they are both radii of the circle. We can make an Iscoceles traingle by drawing a line between ZX. We know angle YZO and angle YXO is a right angle because YZ and XY are tangent to the circle. The Arc angle is the same angle as angle ZOX.

1) Find angles OZX and OXZ. these will be 26.5, because 180-127 is 53, which is the sum of the two angles. the two angles are the same, so divide 53 by 2.

2) Find Angles XZY and ZXY. We know that YZO is a right angle, and both XZY and OZX make up this right angle so XZY + OZX = 90. OZX is 26.5, so 90-26.5=XZY. XZY = ZXY, so both angles equal 63.5.

3) Now that we have two angles of triangle XYZ, we can find angle XYZ.     180-(XZY+ZXY)=XYZ, so (180-(63.5+63.5)=53. Angle XYZ=53.

Find the minimum sample size necessary to be 99% confident that the population mean is within 3 units of the sample mean given that the population standard deviation is 29. (a) What is the critical value that corresponds to the given level of confidence? Round your answer to two decimals, and remember that critical values are always positive.

Answers

Answer:

623

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that margin of error (E) = 3 unit, standard deviation (σ) = 29, sample size (n) = ?

a) The confidence (C) = 99% = 0.99

α = 1 - C = 1 - 0.99 = 0.01

α/2 = 0.01 / 2 = 0.005

From the normal distribution table, The z score of α/2 (0.005) is the critical value and it corresponds to the z score 0.495 (0.5 - 0.005) which is 2.58.

[tex]critical\ value = z_{\frac{\alpha}{2} }=z_{0.005}=2.58\\[/tex]

b) The margin of error (E) is given as:

[tex]E=z_{\frac{\alpha}{2} }*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }\\\\\sqrt{n}= z_{\frac{\alpha}{2} }*\frac{\sigma}{E }\\ \\n=( z_{\frac{\alpha}{2} }*\frac{\sigma}{E })^2\\\\Substituting:\\\\n=(2.58*\frac{29}{3} )^2=622.0036\\\\\\n=623(to\ the \ next\ whole\ number)[/tex]

The minimum sample size (n) is 623

We want to estimate the population mean within 5, with a 99% level of confidence. The population standard deviation is estimated to be 15. How large a sample is required? (Round up your answer to the next whole number.)

Answers

Answer:  60

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to calculate sample size (n):

[tex]n=(\dfrac{\sigma\times z^*}{E})^2[/tex]

, where [tex]\sigma[/tex] = population standard deviation, E Margin of error , z* = critical value for the confidence interval.

As per given , we have

E =5

[tex]\sigma=15[/tex]

Critical value for 99% confidence = 2.576

Then,

[tex]n=(\dfrac{15\times2.576}{5})^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ n=59.721984\approx60[/tex]

So, Required sample size = 60 .

If possible, find A − B.

Express the following as an expression: subtract y form 5 A 5y B 5-y C y-5 D y / 5

Answers

Answer:

5 - y

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the statement "subtract y from 5", we are to express the statement mathematically. Expressing mathematically is as shown;

5 - y

Since we are removing the value of a variable y from 5, the variable we are subtracting will come last in the expression.  For example say, we want to subtract 5 from 10, since we are taking out 5 from 10, the value of 5 will come last in the expression i.e 10 - 5 not 5 - 10.

According to the statement in question, we can see that we are to subtract y from 5, therefore y will come last in our expression and will be expressed as 5 - y

A sample of bacteria is growing at an hourly rate of 10% compounded continuously. The sample began with 4 bacteria. How many bacteria will be in the sample after 18 hours?

Answers

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number  of bacteria in the sample after 18 hours is shown below:

We assume the following things

P = 4 = beginning number of bacteria

rate = r = 0.1

Now

We applied the following formula

[tex]A = Pe^{rt}[/tex]

[tex]= 4\times e^{18\times0.1}[/tex]

[tex]=4e^{1.8}[/tex]

[tex]= 4\times6.049647464[/tex]

= 24

We simply applied the above formula to determine the number of bacteria after the 18 hours

Complete Question

A magazine provided results from a poll of 500 adults who were asked to identify their favorite pie. Among the 500 ​respondents, 12 ​% chose chocolate​ pie, and the margin of error was given as plus or minus 5 percentage points.What values do ​ [tex]\r p , \ \r q[/tex], ​n, E, and p​ represent? If the confidence level is 90​%, what is the value of [tex]\alpha[/tex] ​?

Answer:

a

   [tex]\r p[/tex] is the sample proportion   [tex]\r p = 0.12[/tex]

   [tex]n[/tex] is the  sample size is  [tex]n = 500[/tex]

   [tex]E[/tex] is the  margin of error is [tex]E = 0.05[/tex]

   [tex]\r q[/tex] represents the proportion of those that did not chose chocolate​ pie i.e                        [tex]\r q = 1- \r p[/tex]

b

   [tex]\alpha = 10\%[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Here

    [tex]\r p[/tex] is the sample proportion   [tex]\r p = 0.12[/tex]

   [tex]n[/tex] is the  sample size is  [tex]n = 500[/tex]

    [tex]\r q[/tex] represents the proportion of those that did not chose chocolate​ pie i.e  

      [tex]\r q = 1- \r p[/tex]

      [tex]\r q = 1- 0.12[/tex]

      [tex]\r q = 0.88[/tex]

     [tex]E[/tex] is the  margin of error is [tex]E = 0.05[/tex]

Generally [tex]\alpha[/tex] is the level of significance and it value is mathematically evaluated as

     [tex]\alpha = ( 100 - C )\%[/tex]

Where  [tex]C[/tex] is the confidence level which is given in this question as  [tex]C = 90 \%[/tex]

So  

    [tex]\alpha = ( 100 - 90 )\%[/tex]

    [tex]\alpha = 10\%[/tex]

Rounded to the nearest tenth what is the perimeter of the triangle

Answers

Answer:

D. 11.8 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a 30-60-90 triangle, which means that the hypotenuse is 2x, the short leg is x, and the long leg is x[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex].

In this case, the hypotenuse is 5.

5 / 2 = 2.5. That is the short leg.

The long leg is 2.5 * [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] = 4.330127019.

5 + 2.5 + 4.330127019 = 7.5 + 4.330127019 = 11.83012702, which is about D. 11.8 cm.

Answer:

Part A: no solution

Part B: Distributive property of multiplication over addition.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

4x + 2x - 6 = 6x - 11

6x - 6 = 6x - 11

-6 = -11

Since -6 = -11 is a false statement, there is no solution.

Part B:

Property used: Distributive property of multiplication over addition.

Part A: Here are the steps I used to solve this equation-

4x + 2(x – 3) = 4x + 2x – 11

4x + 2x - 6 = 6x - 11

6x - 6 = 6x - 11

-6 = -11

Since -6 = -11 is a false statement, there is no solution.

The final number of solutions: 0

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
