Missing information:

The question is incomplete and the complete question is shown in the attached picture.

we know that the spinner has an equal chance of landing on each section. Since there are a total of six sections on the spinner, we can assume that the probability of the arrow landing on any one section is 1/6 or approximately 0.1667.

Now, if the arrow is spun 72 times, we can use this probability to calculate the expected number of times the arrow will land on 4. To do this, we simply multiply the probability by the number of spins, as follows:

Expected number of times arrow lands on 4 = Probability of arrow landing on 4 x Number of spins
Expected number of times arrow lands on 4 = 0.1667 x 72
Expected number of times arrow lands on 4 = 12

So, we can expect the arrow to land on 4 approximately 12 times out of 72 spins. Of course, this is just an expected value, and the actual number of times the arrow lands on 4 may vary from this value due to random chance.

In summary, if we assume that the arrow on the spinner is equally likely to land on each section, and it is spun 72 times, we can expect the arrow to land on 4 approximately 12 times based on probability calculations.

The z-score is -1.2, rounded to the tenths place.

The center of the histogram would be around the population mean of 266 days.

The standard deviation of the histogram would be the standard error of the mean, which is the standard deviation of the population divided by the square root of the sample size. Thus, the standard deviation of the histogram would be 10 / sqrt(100) = 1 day.

To calculate the z-score for a sample mean of 264.8 days, we can use the formula:

z = (sample mean - population mean) / (standard deviation / sqrt(sample size))

Substituting the given values, we get:

z = (264.8 - 266) / (10 / sqrt(100)) = -1.2

The mZDPC is approximately 15 degrees.

We know that the length of an arc of a circle is given by the formula:

length of arc = (central angle / 360°) × 2πr

where r is the radius of the circle.

In this case, the length of arc DC is 9.77 inches and the radius of the circle is 8 inches. Let's use the above formula to find the central angle mZDPC:

9.77 = (mZDPC / 360°) × 2π(8)

Simplifying this equation, we get:

mZDPC = (9.77 / (2π(8) / 360°))

mZDPC = (9.77 / 0.670206) degrees

mZDPC ≈ 14.58 degrees

Based on the hypothesis test, with a significance level of 0.05, there is no evidence to suggest that the die is loaded, as the p-value is greater than the significance level. The null hypothesis that the die is fair is failed to rejected.

To determine if the die is loaded, we need to perform a hypothesis test.

Null Hypothesis (H0) The die is fair; all outcomes are equally likely.

Alternative Hypothesis (Ha) The die is loaded, and not all outcomes are equally likely.

We will use a significance level of 0.05.

To test the hypothesis, we can use a chi-square goodness-of-fit test.

First, we need to calculate the expected frequencies for each outcome, assuming that the die is fair. Since there are six possible outcomes, each with an expected frequency of 200/6 = 33.33.

Number Observed Frequency (O) Expected Frequency (E) (O - E)² / E

1 45 33.33 3.48

2 39 33.33 0.87

3 35 33.33 0.07

4 25 33.33 1.83

5 27 33.33 0.99

6 29 33.33 0.44

The test statistic is the sum of (O-E)² / E, which is 7.68.

The degrees of freedom for this test are (number of categories - 1) = 5.

Using a chi-square distribution table or calculator, we find that the p-value associated with a test statistic of 7.68 and 5 degrees of freedom is approximately 0.177.

Since the p-value is greater than our significance level of 0.05, we fail to reject the null hypothesis. We cannot conclude that the die is loaded based on this data alone.

Katie should be able to make it from point A to point B in less than ten minutes and win the bet.

A minute is a unit of time equal to 60 seconds or one sixtieth of an hour. It is commonly used to measure short periods of time, such as the duration of a phone call or a meeting. The symbol for minute is "min".

To determine whether Katie Ledecky can make it from point A to point B in less than ten minutes, we need to calculate the distance between the two points and compare it to her swimming speed.

From the given information, we can use the Law of Cosines to find the distance between points A and B:

[tex]c^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab cos(C)[/tex]

where c is the distance between points A and B, a is the distance from point A to point C, b is the distance from point B to point C, and C is the angle between sides a and b.

Plugging in the given values, we get:

[tex]c^2 = 620^2 + 455^2 - 2(620)(455) cos(150°)\\\\c^2 = 383,825[/tex]

c ≈ 619.5 yards

So the distance between points A and B is approximately 619.5 yards.

Now, we need to determine whether Katie Ledecky can swim this distance in less than ten minutes. We are given that she swam 1,000 yards in 8 minutes and 59.65 seconds, which is approximately 8.99 minutes. So her average speed for the 1,000 yard freestyle was:

speed = distance / time

speed = 1,000 yards / 8.99 minutes

speed ≈ 111.23 yards/minute

To swim the distance between points A and B in less than ten minutes, Katie would need to swim at an average speed of:

speed = distance / time

speed = 619.5 yards / 10 minutes

speed = 61.95 yards/minute

Katie's Olympic level swimming speed of 111.23 yards/minute is significantly faster than the required average speed of 61.95 yards/minute to swim from point A to point B in under ten minutes. Therefore, she should be able to make it from point A to point B in less than ten minutes and win the bet.

A family camping in a national forest used a 4-foot pole and a tarp to build a temporary shelter. One corner of the tarp was staked 5 feet from the bottom of the pole. The slope of the tarp from that corner to the top of the pole is 0.8 or 4/5.

We can draw a right triangle with the pole being the height, the distance from the pole to the stake being the base, and the slope of the tarp being the hypotenuse. The hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle and is opposite to the right angle.

Using the Pythagorean theorem, we can find the length of the hypotenuse

hypotenuse² = height² + base²

hypotenuse² = 4² + 5²

hypotenuse² = 41

hypotenuse = √(41)

Therefore, the slope of the tarp is the ratio of the height to the base, which is

slope = height / base = 4 / 5 = 0.8

The area of the region enclosed by one loop of the curve r = 4cos(θ) is 4 square units. The slope of the tangent line to the polar curve r=1 - 2sin(θ) at θ = π/4 is  2 + √2.

Area of region enclosed by one loop of the curve r = 4cos(2θ)

The curve r = 4cos(2θ) has two loops, and we need to find the area of one loop, which is from θ = 0 to θ = π/4.

To find the area, we use the formula for the area enclosed by a polar curve

A = (1/2) ∫[a,b] r^2 dθ

where r is the polar function, and a and b are the angles of the region we want to find the area for.

So, the area of one loop is

A = (1/2) ∫[0,π/4] (4cos(2θ))^2 dθ

= 8 ∫[0,π/4] cos^2(2θ) dθ

Using the identity cos(2θ) = (cos^2θ - sin^2θ), we can rewrite the integrand as

cos^2(2θ) = (cos^2θ - sin^2θ)^2

= cos^4θ - 2cos^2θsin^2θ + sin^4θ

= (1/2) (1 + cos(4θ)) - (1/2) sin^2(2θ)

So, the integral becomes

A = 8 ∫[0,π/4] [(1/2) (1 + cos(4θ)) - (1/2) sin^2(2θ)] dθ

= 4 [θ/2 + (1/8)sin(4θ) - (1/4)θ - (1/8)sin(2θ)]|[0,π/4]

= 1 + (2/π)

Therefore, the area of one loop of the curve r = 4cos(2θ) is 1 + (2/π).

Slope of tangent line to the polar curve r = 1-2sinθ at θ = π/4

To find the slope of the tangent line, we need to take the derivative of the polar function with respect to θ:

dr/dθ = -2cosθ

Then, we can use the formula for the slope of the tangent line in polar coordinates

dy/dx = (dy/dθ) / (dx/dθ) = (r sinθ) / (r cosθ) = tanθ + r dθ/dθ

At the point specified by θ = π/4, we have

r = 1 - 2sin(π/4) = 1 - √2/2 = (2 - √2)/2

dθ/dθ = 1

So, the slope of the tangent line is

dy/dx = tan(π/4) + r dθ/dθ

= 1 + (2 - √2)/2

= (4 + 2√2)/2

= 2 + √2

Therefore, the slope of the tangent line to the polar curve r = 1-2sinθ at θ = π/4 is 2 + √2.

Answer:

(a) G(t) = (1.68 × 10^-4) × (1/3) t^3 - (0.02/2) t^2 - 0.10t - 2445.84

(b) A(t) = G(t) - G(1900) = (1.68 × 10^-4) × (1/3) (t^3 - 1900^3) - (0.02/2) (t^2 -     1900^2) - 0.10(t - 1900)

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The antiderivative of g(t) can be found by integrating each term of the function with respect to t:

∫g(t) dt = ∫(1.68 × 10^-4)t^2 dt - ∫0.02t dt - ∫0.10 dt

= (1.68 × 10^-4) × (1/3) t^3 - (0.02/2) t^2 - 0.10t + C

where C is the constant of integration.

To find the specific antiderivative G(t) that passes through the point (1970, 94.8), we can use this point to solve for C:

94.8 = (1.68 × 10^-4) × (1/3) (1970)^3 - (0.02/2) (1970)^2 - 0.10(1970) + C

C = 94.8 + (1.68 × 10^-4) × (1/3) (1970)^3 - (0.02/2) (1970)^2 - 0.10(1970)

C ≈ -2445.84

Therefore, the specific antiderivative that gives the gender ratio is:

G(t) = (1.68 × 10^-4) × (1/3) t^3 - (0.02/2) t^2 - 0.10t - 2445.84

(b) The accumulation function of g is the integral of g with respect to t, or:

A(t) = ∫g(t) dt = G(t) + C

where C is the constant of integration. We can find the value of C using the initial condition given in the problem:

A(1900) = ∫g(t) dt ∣t=1900 = G(1900) + C = 0

Therefore, C = -G(1900), and the accumulation function of g is:

A(t) = G(t) - G(1900) = (1.68 × 10^-4) × (1/3) (t^3 - 1900^3) - (0.02/2) (t^2 - 1900^2) - 0.10(t - 1900)

Answer:

Begin by simplifying the phrases within the brackets, beginning with the innermost brackets:

(2 x 3)^-1 = 1/6 (because 2 x 3 = 6, and the negative exponent flips the fraction)

1/2^3 = 1/8 (because 2^3 = 8)

So, (2x3)^-1x1/2^3 = 1/6 x 1/8 = 1/48

Next, simplify the expression outside the parentheses:

(3x2^2)^-2 = 1/(3x2^2)^2 = 1/(3^2 x 2^4) = 1/36 x 1/16 = 1/576

Now, substitute the simplified terms back into the original expression and simplify:

3x(1/48)x(1/576) = 1/768

So the final answer is 1/768.

Knowing that tan(x) = 3/5 and using a trigonometric identity, we will get that:

tan(2x) = 1.875

There is a trigonometric identity we can use for this, we know that:

[tex]tan(2x) = \frac{2tan(x)}{1 - tan^2(x)}[/tex]

So we only need to knos tan(x), which we already know that is equal to 3/5, then we can replace it in the formula above to get:

[tex]tan(2x) = \frac{2*3/5}{1 - (3/5)^2}\\\\tan(2x) = \frac{6/5}{1 - 9/25} \\tan(2x) = 1.875[/tex]

Even if the edges are perfectly collinear, Euclidean geometry only creates a portion of the cube. A triangle is made up of a quadrilateral and three angles.

Here,

The lengths of all three sides must be added up in order to determine the jewellery's perimeter.

=> c²= a² + b²

where a and b are the lengths of the other two sides, and c is the length of the hypotenuse.

=> A = 3mm, and B = 4mm.

Therefore, we can determine the length of the hypotenuse using the Pythagorean theorem:

y < four-fifthsx - one-fifth

y < 2x + 6

The given system of inequalities can be represented in slope-intercept form as follows:

y < (4/5)x - 1/5

y < 2x + 6

To convert the given inequalities into slope-intercept form, we rearrange each equation to solve for y

In the first inequality, we add 5y to both sides and then divide by 4 to isolate y. This gives us:

4x - 5y < 1

-5y < -4x + 1

y > (4/5)x - 1/5

In the second inequality, we add x to both sides and then divide by -1/2 to isolate y. This gives us:

1/2y - x < 3

1/2y < x + 3

y > 2x + 6

So, we require random numbers starting from 1 with an interval of length 5-1=4.

We know, during simulation using usual Excel function RAND() we obtain random numbers in an interval [0, 1].

Thus if we multiply usual Excel function RAND() by 4 and thus use 4*RAND(), then we obtain random numbers in an interval [0*4, 1*4] i.e

Variance for activity B is given by

[tex]\tiny \frac{\left ( 3-2 \right )^2}{12}=\frac{1^2}{12}=0.083333[/tex]

Variance for activity C is given by

[tex]\tiny \frac{\left ( 6-3 \right )^2}{12}=\frac{3^2}{12}=0.75[/tex]

Variance of project completion time in the project is \tiny [tex]1.333333+0.083333+0.75= 2.166666[/tex]

So, standard deviation of project completion time in the project is [tex]\tiny \sqrt {2.166666}=1.47196\approx 1.47[/tex]

Answer:

Set your calculator to degree mode.

Using the Law of Sines:

7/sin(40°) = x/sin(81°)

x = 7sin(81°)/sin(40°) = 10.8

Answer:

10.8=x

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Law of Sines, we can put together the fact that

[tex]\frac{sin A}{a} =\frac{sinB}{b}[/tex]

Substitute our given values from the triangle:

[tex]\frac{sin 81}{x} =\frac{sin40}{7}[/tex]

Turn the sines into a decimal:

[tex]\frac{0.9876}{x} =\frac{0.6427}{7}\\[/tex]

cross multiply using butterfly method

0.988·7=0.643x

solve for x

6.916=0.643x

divide both sides by 0.643

10.8=x (round to nearest tenth)

Hope this helps! :)
