Frank’s been traveling a lot lately as part of his job. During the past 30 days,he’s been out of town 18 days. What fraction represents the number of the 30 days that frank has been out of town? Explain how you got your answer

Let's take a look at each term separately.

15a^2b^2:

15 has factors 1, 3, 5, 15

a x a

b x b

-24ab

-24 has factors 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24

a

b

Now, we can see what each of these terms has in common. Both have a 3 in their factor lists, as well as one a and one b.

Therefore, the greatest common factor is 3ab.

Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:

Answer:

The z-score is  [tex]z = 2.65[/tex]

The length of days is not unusual

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The population mean is  [tex]\mu = 267.6 \ days[/tex]

     The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 15.4 \ days[/tex]

      The value considered is  [tex]x = 309 \ days[/tex]

The z-score is mathematically represented as

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

            [tex]z = \frac{309 - 267.6}{15.6 }[/tex]

           [tex]z = 2.65[/tex]

Now given that the z-score is not greater than 3  then we can say that the length of days is not unusual

Answer:

[tex] P(X \geq 6) = P(X=6) +P(X=7) +P(X=8) +P(X=9) +P(X=10)[/tex]

And using the probability mass function we got:

[tex]P(X=6)=(10C6)(0.5)^6 (1-0.5)^{10-6}=0.205[/tex]

[tex]P(X=7)=(10C7)(0.5)^7 (1-0.5)^{10-7}=0.117[/tex]

[tex]P(X=9)=(10C9)(0.5)^9 (1-0.5)^{10-9}=0.0098[/tex]

[tex]P(X=10)=(10C10)(0.5)^{10} (1-0.5)^{10-10}=0.000977[/tex]

And adding the values we got:

[tex] P(X\geq 6) = 0.377[/tex]

The best answer would be:

D. 0.377

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

[tex]X \sim Binom(n=10, p=0.5)[/tex]

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

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

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

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

For this case in order to pass he needs to answer at leat 6 questions and we can rewrite this:

[tex] P(X \geq 6) = P(X=6) +P(X=7) +P(X=8) +P(X=9) +P(X=10)[/tex]

And using the probability mass function we got:

[tex]P(X=6)=(10C6)(0.5)^6 (1-0.5)^{10-6}=0.205[/tex]

[tex]P(X=7)=(10C7)(0.5)^7 (1-0.5)^{10-7}=0.117[/tex]

And adding the values we got:

[tex] P(X\geq 6) = 0.377[/tex]

The best answer would be:

D. 0.377

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the following data:

H0:p=0.40 (null hypothesis)

Ha:p>0.40 (alternative hypothesis)

The p-value was determined to be 0.001.

a significance level of 5%

Since the p value (0.001) is less than the significance level (0.05), we will reject the null hypothesis and then we would conclude that the proportion of students that are nursing majors is greater than 0.4.

Answer:

p value= 0.131

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have calculated the test statistic, we can now proceed to find the p-value for this hypothesis test.Using the test statistic and since the hypothesis test is a left tailed test, the p-value will then be the area under the standard normal curve to the left of the test statistic of -1.12.Using the Standard Normal table given above, the area under the standard normal curve to the left of the test statistic of -1.12 is 0.131 (rounded to 3 decimal places.Thus the p-value = 0.131.

Answer: 97

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to compute the required sample size :

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

, where [tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation

E= Margin of error

[tex]z_{\alpha/2}[/tex] = Two tailed z-value.

Here, E= 20

[tex]\sigma[/tex] = 100

Answer:

P(A|B) = 1 / 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming two fair sided dice with faces numbered 1 to 6.

By intuition, there can only be 6 possible outcomes, so probability is 1/6.

Illustration how to use conditional probability.

Given two events A, B, following is the equation of conditional probability

that A happens given B has already happened and observed.

P(A|B) = P( A intersect B ) / P(B)

In the given problem,

A = casting a double-six

B = casting a double

P(A) = (1 / 6) * (1 / 6) = 1/36

P(B) = (6/6) * (1/6) = 1/6

P(A|B) = 1/36 / (1/6) = 1/6

     (10000, 10000, 0),

     (15000, 4915.97, 84.03),

     (18181.82, 1680.67, 137.51)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a number of ways to approach this question. We have chosen an approach that determines the investments required to achieve interest rate targets.

__

For an overall interest rate of I, the proportion that must be invested at rate I1 < I < I2 is ...

  proportion at I1 = (I2 -I)/(I2 -I1)

Similarly, the proportion that must be invested at I2 is what's left over. It can be computed similarly:

  proportion at I2 = (I -I1)/(I2 -I1)

__

We want an overall interest rate of $2000/$20000 = 10%.

Given available interest rates of 9%, 11%, and 130%, we need to have investments at a rate lower than 10% and at a rate higher than 10%.

If we use only the options for 9% and 11% (no junk bonds), then we can compute ...

  proportion at 9% = (11 -10)/(11 -9) = 1/2

  proportion at 11% = (10 -9)/(11 -9) = 1/2

1st Option:

  $10,000 in treasury bills; $10,000 in corporate bonds

__

Suppose we want to achieve a 13% return on our investments at 11% and 130%. Then the proportion invested at 9% will use this value for I2:

  proportion at 9% = (13 -10)/(13 -9) = 3/4

Of the remaining 1/4 of the money, we can achieve a 13% return by mixing the investments like this:

  proportion at 11% = (130 -13)/(130 -11) = 117/119

  proportion at 130% = (13 -11)/(130 -11) = 2/119

2nd option:

  $20,000 × 3/4 = $15,000 in treasury bills

  $5000 × 117/119 = $4,915.97 in corporate bonds

  The remaining amount, $84.03 in junk bonds

__

Let's suppose we want a 20% return on our investment in junk bonds and corporate bonds. Then the proportion of the money invested at 9% will be ...

  proportion at 9% = (20 -10)/(20 -9) = 10/11

And the proportion at 11% will be ...

  proportion at 11% = (130 -20)/(130 -11) = 110/119 . . . (of the remaining 1/11 of the funds)

3rd option:

  $20,000 × 10/11 = $18,181.82 in treasury bills

  $1,818.18 × 110/119 = $1,680.67 in corporate bonds

  The remaining amount, $137.51 in junk bonds

_____

Additional comment

The most that could be invested in Junk Bonds is $165.29. If the remainder is invested in Treasury Bills, then the overall return will be $2000. (You could consider this to be a 4th option.)

Answer:

42

Step-by-step explanation:

The permutation formula is P(n, r) = n! / (n - r)!. We know that n = 7 and r = 2 so we can write:

7! / (7 - 2)!

= 7! / 5!

= 7 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 / 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1

= 7 * 6 (5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 cancels out)

= 42

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{42}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the permutation formula.

[tex]P(n,r)=\frac{n!}{ (n-r)!}[/tex]

[tex]P=number \: of \: permutations\\n=total \: number \: of \: objects \: in \: the \: set\\r=number \: of \: choosing \: objects \: from \: the \: set\\[/tex]

[tex]n=7\\r=2[/tex]

Plug in the values and evaluate.

[tex]P(7,2)=\frac{7!}{ (7-2)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(7,2)=\frac{7!}{ (5)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(7,2)=\frac{5040}{120}[/tex]

Answer:

The most appropriate  value of the critical value is 2.289.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a researcher takes a random sample of 41 bulbs and determines  that the mean consumption is 1.3 watts per hour with a standard deviation of 0.7.

We have to find that when constructing a 97% confidence interval, which would be the most appropriate  value of the critical value.

Firstly, as we know that the test statistics that would be used here is t-test statistics because we don't know about the population standard deviation.

So, for finding the critical value we will look for t table at (41 - 1 = 40) degrees of freedom at the level of significance will be [tex]\frac{1 - 0.97}{2} = 0.015[/tex] .

Now, as we can see that in the t table the critical values for P = 1.5% are not given, so we will interpolate between P = 2.5% and P = 1%, i.e;

     [tex]\frac{0.015 - 0.025}{0.025-0.01}= \frac{\text{Critcal value}-2.021}{2.021-2.423}[/tex]

So, the critical value at a 1.5% significance level is 2.289.

The complete part of the first sentence is;

A manufacturer claims that the average tensile strength of thread A exceeds the average tensile strength of thread B by at least 12 kilograms.

Answer:

we fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the difference of the average tensile strength of thread A and thread B is less than 12

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

n_A = 16

n_B = 16

x'_A = 185 kg

x'_B = 178 kg

s_A = 6 kg

s_B = 9 kg

Let μ_A denote the population average tensile strength of thread A

Also, Let μ_B represent the population average tensile strength of thread B

Thus;

Null Hypothesis; H0;μ_A - μ_B ≤ 12

Alternative hypothesis;H1; μ_A - μ_B > 12

From the image attached, with a significance level of 0.05, the critical value for right tailed is 1.645. So we will reject the hypothesis is z > 1.645

Formula for z is;

z = (x'_A - x'_B - d_o)/√((s_A²/n_A) + (s_B²/n_B))

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

z = (185 - 178 - 12)/√((6²/16) + (9²/16))

z = -5/2.7041634566

z = - 1.849

Since the z-value is less than 1.645,we fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the difference of the average tensile strength of thread A and thread B is less than 12

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

B. ​No, two events with nonzero probabilities cannot be independent and mutually exclusive because if two events are mutually​ exclusive, then when one of them​ occurs, the probability of the other must be zero.

For two mutually exclusive events , with non- zero probabilities , when one occurs , the other can not happen . In this way they become dependent events . In this way , for two events to be both independent and mutually exclusive , at least one of the two events must have zero probability .

It should be noted that two events with nonzero probabilities cannot be independent and mutually exclusive because if two events are mutually​ exclusive, then when one of them​ occurs, the probability of the other must be zero.

Mutually exclusive events simply means the events that cannot take place at the same time. The occurrence of one of the events will prevent the other event from occuring.

Therefore, two events with nonzero probabilities cannot be independent and mutually exclusive because if two events are mutually​ exclusive, then when one of them​ occurs, the probability of the other must be zero.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets have a look to the graph and to the  each of given functions.

As we can see in graph it intersects X in points (-3;0) and (-6;0) that means the function has the roots x1=-3 and x2=-6

Function A  has the roots x1=+3 and x2=+6 => doesn' t fit

Function B has only 1 root x=2 , so can be factorized y=(x-2)^2 => doesn' t fit

Function C has 2 roots  x1=4  and x2=-5 => doesn' t fit

Function D can be factotized as y=(x+6)*(x+3) so has 2 roots x1=-6 x2=-3 => exactly what we need!!!

We can also notice that the coefficient near x²  is equal to 1  and is positive.

That means the legs of the graph directed up,- this is exactly like in our graph. It gives us extra argument why we choose D.

2x² - 3x - 35 = 0

Step 1: Find two values whose product = 2(-35) and sum = -3:  -10 & 7

Step 2: Replace the b-value of -3x with  -10x + 7x:

2x² - 10x   + 7x - 35 = 0

Step 3: Factor the first two terms and the second two terms:

2x(x - 5)  +7(x - 5) = 0

Step 4: Write the factored form:

Notice that the parenthesis are identical.  This is one of the factors. The outside values are the other factor:

Parenthesis: (x - 5)

Outside: (2x + 7)

Factored form: (x - 5)(2x + 7) = 0

Step 5: Set each factor each to zero and solve for x:

x - 5 = 0             2x + 7 = 0

   x - 5                      [tex]x=-\dfrac{7}{2}[/tex]

The solutions of the quadratic equation given as 2x² - 3x - 35 = 0 are x=5 and x =-3.5.

Given that:

2x² - 3x - 35 = 0

This is a quadratic equation.

It is required to find the solutions of this equation.

The solution of the quadratic equation of the form ax² + bx + c = 0 can be found using the quadratic formula:

[tex]x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

From the given equation:

a = 2

b = -3

c = -35

Answer:

a) $3700

b) $555

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the loan is 3 years.

The interest after 3 years is $444.

The rate of the Simple Interest is 4%.

Simple Interest is given as:

I = (P * R * T) / 100

where P = principal (amount borrowed)

R = rate

T = length of years

Therefore:

P = $3700

She borrowed $3700

b) If the simple interest was 5%, then:

I = (3700 * 5 * 3) / 100 = $555

The interest would be $555.
