Suppose that the duration of a particular type of criminal trial is known to be normally distributed with a mean of 22 days and a standard deviation of 6 days. 72% of all of these types of trials are completed within how many days

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

25.5 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean number of days (μ) = 22 days

Standard deviation (σ) = 6 days

Z-score for the 72nd percentile (according to tabulated values) = 0.583

The z-score for any number of days, X, is determined by:

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

The value of X that is greater than 72% of the trial times is:

[tex]0.583=\frac{X-22}{6}\\ X=25.5\ days[/tex]

Therefore, 72% of all of these types of trials are completed within 25.5 days.

Which system of linear inequalities is represented by the
graph?

Answers

Answer:

The first option.

Step-by-step explanation:

y-intercept equation: y=mx+b

mx=slope

b=y-intercept

Looking at the graph, we can know that the slope is 1/3x so we can eliminate the 2nd choice. Now, we fix the second inequality into the y-intercept form which is

1st option: y>3x-2

3rd option: y>-3x+2

4th option: y>2x-2

Now, looking at the blue graph, the slope is 3x. And looking at the y-intercept,  it is on -2.

So, it will be the first option!

Answer:

For 0,90 of Confidence we reject H₀

For  0,95 CI we reject H₀

Step-by-step explanation:

To evaluate a difference between two proportion with big sample sizes we proceed as follows

1.-Proportion 1

n = 2160

243 had rear license  p₁ = 243/2160     p₁ = 0,1125

2.Proportion 2

n = 358

55   had rear license   p₂ = 55/ 358     p₂ = 0,1536

Test Hypothesis

Null Hypothesis                            H₀      ⇒   p₂   =  p₁

Alternative Hypothesis                Hₐ     ⇒    p₂  >  p₁

With signficance level  of  0,05  means  z(c) = 1,64

T calculate   z(s)

z(s) =  ( p₂ - p₁ ) / √ p*q ( 1/n₁  +  1/n₂ )

p = ( x₁  +  x₂ ) / n₁  +  n₂

p = 243  +  55 / 2160 + 358

p = 0,1183     and then    q = 1 -  p     q =  0,8817

z(s) =  ( 0,1536 - 0,1125 ) / √ 0,1043 ( 1/ 2160   +  1 / 358)

z(s) =  0,0411 /√ 0,1043*0,003256

z(s) = 0,0411 / 0,01843

z(s) =  2,23

Then  z(s) > z(c)      2,23  >  1,64

z(s) is in the rejection region we reject H₀

If we construct a CI for  0,95   α = 0,05   α/2  =  0,025

z (score ) is  from z- table    z = 1,96

CI = ( p ±  z(0,025*SE)

CI = ( 0,1536 ± 1,96*√ 0,1043*0,003256 )

CI = ( 0,1536 ± 1.96*0,01843)

CI = ( 0,1536 ± 0,03612 )

CI = ( 0,11748  ;  0,18972 )

In the new CI we don´t find  0 value so we have enough evidence to reject H₀

Katie wants to create a rectangular frame for a picture. She has 60 inches of material. If she wants the length to be 3 more than 2 times the width what is the largest possible length

Answers

Answer:

Largest possible length is 21 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total material available = 60 inches

Length to be 3 more than twice of width.

To find:

Largest possible length = ?

Solution:

As it is rectangular shaped frame.

Let length = [tex]l[/tex] inches and

Width = [tex]w[/tex] inches

As per given condition:

[tex]l = 2w+3[/tex] ..... (1)

Total frame available = 60 inches.

i.e. it will be the perimeter of the rectangle.

Formula for perimeter of rectangle is given as:

[tex]P = 2 \times (Width + Length)[/tex]

Putting the given values and conditions as per equation (1):

[tex]60 = 2 \times (w+ l)\\\Rightarrow 60 = 2 \times (w+ 2w+3)\\\Rightarrow 60 = 2 \times (3w+3)\\\Rightarrow 30 = 3w+3\\\Rightarrow 3w = 27\\\Rightarrow w = 9 \ inch[/tex]

Putting in equation (1):

[tex]l = 2\times 9+3\\\Rightarrow l = 21\ inch[/tex]

So, the answer is:

Largest possible length is 21 inches.

Suppose that a single die with 9 sides (numbered 1, 2, 3, ... , 9) is rolled twice. What is the probability that the sum of the two rolls equals 3

Answers

Answer:

2/81

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is defines as the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

Probability = expected outcome of event/total outcome.

Since a single die with 9 sides was rolled, the total event outcome will be 9*9 = 81

Expected outcome will be the event that the sum of the two rolls equals 3. The possible outcomes are {(1,2), (2,1)}. The expected outcome is 2

Probability that the sum of the two rolls equals 3 = 2/81

The probability that the sum of the two rolls equals 3 is [tex]\dfrac{2}{81}[/tex].

Important information:

A single die with 9 sides is rolled twice.

We need to find the probability that the sum of the two rolls equals 3.

Probability:

If a die with 9 sides is rolled twice, then the number of total possible outcomes is:

[tex]9\times 9=81[/tex]

The sum of the two rolls equals 3, if we get 1, 2 and 2, 1. It means the number of favorable outcomes is 2.

[tex]P=\dfrac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}[/tex]

[tex]P=\dfrac{2}{81}[/tex]

Therefore, the probability that the sum of the two rolls equals 3 is [tex]\dfrac{2}{81}[/tex].

One number is 26 more than another. Their product is -169.

Answers

One number = x

One number more 26 = x + 26

Their product is -169

x . (x + 26) = -169

x² + 26x = -169

x² + 26x + 169 = 0

x² + 2.13.x + 13² = 0

It can be written by

(x + 13)² since we know that (x + 13)² = x² + 2.x.13 + 13²

So

(x + 13)² = 0

x + 13 = 0

x = -13

Our number is -13

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, according to the question,

let one number be x and another number be x +26 as given in question that the another number is more than 26.

And their product is given as -169.

now, as per the condition of question,

x × (x+26)= -169

or, x^2+26x= -169

or, x^2+26x+169=0

or, (x+13)^2=0

or, (x+13)=0 (root under 0= 0)

or, x=-13.

Therefore, thevalue of x is -13.

And the value of (x+26) is (-13+26)=13.

Checking, 13×-13=-169.

Therefore, the 2 numbers are -13 and 13.

Answers

Answer:

- 29 / 20

Step-by-step explanation

The cosec (x) = 1 / sin(x)

There are 2 ways to do this:

Either using a calculator:

sin^-1(20 / 29) = 43.60281897

so inputting into 1/sin(-x) where x = 43.6.....

This gives: -29 / 20

OR

1 / sin(x) = cosec ( x)

so cosec (x) = 1/(20/29)

= 29/20

By observing the cosec(x) graph, we see that to get cosec (-x), all we need to do is to minus our answer seeing as the graph is symmetrical across the axes. Therefore x = -29/20

Answers

Answer:

$7

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest formula:

I = Prt

6 months = 6 * 30 days = 180 days

1 year = 360 days

t = (180 days)/(360 days) = 0.5

I = $7000 * 0.002 * 0.5

I = $7

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that simple interest is given by

I = Prt,

Where :

I = interest (we are asked to find this)

P = principal amount = given as $7000

r = rate = given as 0.2% = 0.002

t = time in years = given as 6 months = 0.5 years

SImply substitute the known values into the equation above:

I = Prt

= (7000)(0.002)(0.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

In a poll conducted by the Gallup organization in April 2013, 48% of a random sample of 1022 adults in the U.S. responded that they felt that economic growth is more important than protecting the environment. We can use this information to calculate a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all U.S. adults in April 2013 who felt that economic growth is more important than protecting the environment. Make sure to include all steps.

Answers

Answer:

The  95% confidence interval is  [tex]0.449 < p < 0.48 + 0.511[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that  

     The sample proportion is [tex]\r p = 0.48[/tex]

      The sample size is [tex]n = 1022[/tex]

Given that the confidence level is 95%  then the level of significance is mathematically evaluated 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 the 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} } * \sqrt{\frac{\r p (1- \r p )}{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

          [tex]E = 1.96* \sqrt{\frac{0.48 (1- 0.48 )}{1022} }[/tex]

          [tex]E = 0.03063[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as

      [tex]\r p - E < p < \r p + E[/tex]

substituting values

       [tex]0.48 - 0.03063 < p < 0.48 + 0.03063[/tex]

       [tex]0.449 < p < 0.48 + 0.511[/tex]

Note that this is not a function because some inputs can have more than one output, that's why they say relation, not function! :D

DOMAIN

The domain is all of the possible x-values of the relation.  We see that the lowest x-value is -4, while the highest is 4. If you plug in these two or any number in between, there will be at least one corresponding output.

This domain can be written as -4 ≤ x ≤ 4.

RANGE

The range is all of the possible outputs or y-values. We see that the minimum y-value is -4 and that the highest is 4. Therefore, we will just write it the same as the domain but use a different variable.

-4 ≤ y ≤ 4.

This matches with Option A.

The principle value of the [tex]\logi= \log(0+i)\ \ \ \ \ _{where} \ \ \ x=0 \ \ y=1> 0[/tex]

So, the principle value:

a)

[tex]\to \log(i)=\log |i|+i Arg(i)\\\\[/tex]

             [tex]=\log \sqrt{0+1}+i \tan^{-1}(\frac{1}{0})\\\=\log 1 +i \tan^{-1}(\infty)\\\=0+i\frac{\pi}{2}\\\=i\frac{\pi}{2}[/tex]

b)

Principle value:

c)

[tex]\to \log(-1+i) \ \ \ \ x=-1, _{and} y=1 \ \ \ x<0 and y>0[/tex]

The principle value:

[tex]\to \log(-1+i)=\log |-1+i| + i Arg(-1+i)[/tex]

                     [tex]=\log \sqrt{1+1}+i(\pi+\tan^{-1}(\frac{1}{1}))\\\\=\log \sqrt{2} + i(\pi-\tan^{-1}\frac{\pi}{4})\\\\=\log \sqrt{2} + i\tan^{-1}\frac{3\pi}{4}\\\\[/tex]

d)

[tex]\to i^i=w\\\\w=e^{i\log i}[/tex]

The principle value:

[tex]\to \log i=i\frac{\pi}{2}\\\\\to w=e^{i(i \frac{\pi}{2})}\\\\=e^{-\frac{\pi}{2}}[/tex]

e)

[tex]\to (-i)^i\\\to w=(-i)^i\\\\w=e^{i \log (-i)}[/tex]

In this we calculate the principle value from b:

so, the final value is [tex]e^{\frac{\pi}{2}}[/tex]

f)

[tex]\to -1^i\\\\\to w=e^{i log(-1)}\\\\\ principle \ value: \\\\\to \log(-1)= \log |-1|+iArg(-i)[/tex]

and the principle value of w is = [tex]e^{\pi}[/tex]

g)

[tex]\to -1^{-i}\\\\\to w=e^(-i \log (-1))\\\\[/tex]

from the point f the principle value is:

[tex]\to \log(-1)= i\pi\\\to w= e^{-i(i\pi)}\\\\\to w=e^{\pi}[/tex]

h)

Which value for x makes the sentence true?
3/4x+ 4 = 7

1)4
2) 44/3
3) -3
4) 8

Answers

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4x+ 4 = 7

Subtract 4 from each side

3/4x+ 4-4 = 7-4

3/4x = 3

Multiply each side by 4/3

4/3 * 3/4 x = 3 * 4/3

x = 4

Five times a number is divided by $7$ more than the number. If the result is $2$, then what was the original number? please help!

Answers

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the number 5 is a number that you get from 7 more than n, and 2 is the other divisor that means n must equal 10 and 7 less than 10 is 3.

When five times a number is divided by 7 more than the number and the result is 2, then the number is 14/3, which is solved using the linear equation in one variable 5x/(x+ 7) = 2, where x is the required number.

What are linear equations in one variable?

Linear equations are first-order equations. Lines in the coordinate system are determined by linear equations. A linear equation in one variable is defined as an equation with a homogeneous variable of degree 1 (i.e. only one variable).

How to solve the given question?

In the question, we are asked to find a number, which satisfies the statement, "Five times a number is divided by 7 more than the number. The result of this division is 2".

We assume the number to be x.

Now we try to form a linear equation in one variable from the given statement.

Five times a number is 5x.

7 more than a number is x + 7.

We are said that five times a number is divided by 7 more than a number. This can be shown as 5x/(x + 7).

Now, the result is given as 2, which can be shown as:

5x/(x+ 7) = 2, which is the required linear equation in one variable.

To get the number, we solve the equation using the following steps:

5x/(x+ 7) = 2

or, {5x/(x+ 7)}*(x + 7) = 2*(x + 7) (Multiplying both sides by (x + 7))

or, 5x = 2x + 14 (Simplifying)

or, 5x - 2x = 2x + 14 - 2x (Subtracting 2x from both sides)

or, 3x = 14 (Simplifying)

or, 3x/3 = 14/3 (Dividing both sides by 3)

or, x = 14/3 (Simplifying)

∴ When five times a number is divided by 7 more than the number and the result is 2, then the number is 14/3, which is solved using the linear equation in one variable 5x/(x+ 7) = 2, where x is the required number.

What is the volume of a prism?

A three-dimensional solid object called a prism has two identical ends. It consists of equal cross-sections, flat faces, and identical bases. Without bases, the prism's faces are parallelograms or rectangles.

The volume of a prism is the product of its base area and height

Volume of Prism = B x h

where B = base area of prism

h = height of prism

Given data ,

Let the volume of the tent be represented as V

Now , the value of V is

V = 4.5 m³

Let the height of the prism be H

Now , the base of the triangle B = 1.5 m

And , the length of the tent L = 3 m

So , Volume of Prism = B x h

4.5 = ( 1/2 ) x 1.5 x H x 3

On simplifying , we get

4.5 = 2.25H

Divide by 2.25 on both sides , we get

H = 2 m

Hence , the height of the tent is 2 m

He would only pat his young son Andrei on the back if he felt compelled to show love in front of people. Nobody had heard Nikolai sing Andrei to sleep. In fact, even the songs were about warriors, ascetics, and heroes of some kind. Once, when nobody was looking, Nikolai took off his shoes and socks to walk on the morning dew. He even bent lowmessing up his crisp suitto smell an unfolding rose. Nikolai would shock himself by such impulsive acts, and then he would walk about with a tyrants expression on his face. Every day on his way home from work, Nikolai crossed a river that forked into two directions. It took him longer to get home the day the river was flooded.
