The test statistic is calculated to be 4.05, which is greater than the critical value of 2.704 at a significance level of 0.05, indicating strong evidence to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the mean cost per person exceeds $38.0.

To test if there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean cost per person exceeds $38.0, we can perform a one-sample t-test.

Using the given information, the test statistic is calculated as

t = (39.7188 - 38.0) / (3.5476 / √(40)) = 4.05.

Using a t-table with 39 degrees of freedom (n-1), the p-value is found to be less than 0.01.

Since the p-value is less than the significance level of 0.05, we can reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is sufficient evidence to suggest that the mean cost per person exceeds $38.0.

Since sin(a) is negative and a is in the third quadrant, we can use the Pythagorean identity to find cos(a):

[tex]cos^2(a) + sin^2(a) = 1[/tex]

[tex]cos^2(a) + (-4/5)^2 = 1[/tex]

[tex]cos^2(a) = 9/25[/tex]

cos(a) = -3/5 (since a is in the third quadrant)

Similarly, since sec(B) = 5/3, we can use the definition of secant to find cos(B):

sec(B) = 1/cos(B) = 5/3

cos(B) = 3/5

(a) To find sin(a + B), we can use the sum formula for sine:

sin(a + B) = sin(a) cos(B) + cos(a) sin(B)

= (-4/5)(3/5) + (-3/5)(4/5)

= -12/25 - 12/25

= -24/25

(b) To find tan(a + B), we can use the sum formula for tangent:

tan(a + B) = (tan(a) + tan(B)) / (1 - tan(a) tan(B))

To find tan(a), we can use the identity: [tex]tan^2(a) + 1 = sec^2(a)[/tex]

[tex]tan^2(a) = sec^2(a) - 1 = (5/3)^2 - 1 = 16/9[/tex]

tan(a) = -4/3 (since a is in the third quadrant)

To find tan(B), we can use the identity: tan(B) = sin(B) / cos(B) = 4/3

Plugging these values into the formula for tan(a + B), we get:

tan(a + B) = (-4/3 + 4/3) / (1 + (-4/3)(4/3))

= 0 / (1 - 16/9)

= 0

(c) To determine the quadrant containing a + B, we need to consider the signs of sin(a + B) and cos(a + B).

From part (a), we know that sin(a + B) is negative. To determine the sign of cos(a + B), we can use the Pythagorean identity:

[tex]sin^2(a + B) + cos^2(a + B) = 1[/tex]

Substituting sin(a + B) = -24/25, we get:

[tex](-24/25)^2 + cos^2(a + B) = 1[/tex]

[tex]cos^2(a + B) = 1 - (-24/25)^2[/tex]

cos(a + B) = ±7/25

Since cos(a + B) is positive in the first and fourth quadrants, and negative in the second and third quadrants, we can conclude that a + B is in the third quadrant, since cos(a + B) is negative and sin(a + B) is negative.

A ten-by-ten grid has 7 columns shaded. All of the following that represent the part of the grid that is shaded are : The correct answer is (A) 70 and (B) 7.

The information given in the problem tells us that a ten-by-ten grid has 7 columns shaded. Since there are a total of 10 columns in the grid, this means that 7/10 of the columns are shaded.

To express this as a percentage, we can divide 7 by 10 and multiply by 100:

(7/10) x 100 = 70%

Therefore, 70 represents the percentage of columns that are shaded in the grid. Option (A) is correct.

Alternatively, we can express the same proportion as a decimal by dividing 7 by 10:

7/10 = 0.7

Therefore, 0.7 represents the proportion of columns that are shaded in the grid. Option (E) is incorrect because it shows 0.7 as a fraction instead of a decimal.

Option (B) is also correct because it correctly identifies the number of shaded columns as 7. Option (C) is incorrect because it includes both the percentage and the number of shaded columns, which is redundant. Option (D) is incorrect because it shows the proportion of shaded columns as a decimal with an extra zero.

Option C is correct. No, the least value is smaller than the critical value.

Null hypothesis (H₀): The average first-year teacher salary is $52,000.

Alternative hypothesis (Ha): The average first-year teacher salary is not $52,000.

The significance level is 5% (or 0.05), which means we will reject the null hypothesis if the probability of obtaining the observed result is less than 5%.

Calculate the standard error of the mean:

Standard Error = Standard Deviation / √n

where n is the number of samples (n = 25 in this case).

Standard Error = $1500 / √25

= $1500 / 5

= $300

Now, perform the hypothesis test using a t-test since the sample size is relatively small (n < 30) and the population standard deviation is unknown.

t-score = (Sample Mean - Population Mean) / Standard Error

t-score = ($52,525 - $52,000) / $300

t-score = $525 / $300

t-score = 1.75

To find the critical value at a 5% significance level with 24 degrees of freedom (n - 1), we can consult a t-table. At a 5% significance level (two-tailed test), the critical t-value is approximately ±2.064.

Since the calculated t-score (1.75) is not greater than the critical t-value (2.064), we fail to reject the null hypothesis.

The weight of the water in the tank is approximately 3,809 pounds.

A. To find the width and length of the tank that will use the smallest amount of glass, we need to consider the surface area of the tank. Let's use "x" to represent the length and "y" to represent the width. The formula for the surface area of a rectangular tank is:

Surface Area = 2xy + 2xz + 2yz

Since the top of the tank will be open, we can ignore the surface area of the top. We know that the tank needs to hold 500 gallons and be 2 feet deep, so we can use the formula for the volume of a rectangular tank to solve for one of the variables:

Volume = Length x Width x Depth

500 = xy x 2

xy = 250

Now we can substitute this into the surface area formula and simplify:

Surface Area = 2(250) + 2xz + 2yz
Surface Area = 500 + 2xz + 2yz

To minimize the surface area, we need to differentiate this formula with respect to one of the variables and set it equal to zero. Let's differentiate with respect to x:

d(Surface Area)/dx = 2z

Setting this equal to zero, we get:

2z = 0

z = 0

This doesn't make sense, so let's try differentiating with respect to y:

d(Surface Area)/dy = 2z

Setting this equal to zero, we get:

2z = 0

z = 0

Again, this doesn't make sense. We can conclude that the surface area is minimized when x = y, so the tank should be square. Since xy = 250, we can solve for the side length of the square:

x^2 = 250

x ≈ 15.81 feet

So the tank should be approximately 15.81 feet by 15.81 feet to use the smallest amount of glass.

B. The volume of the water in the tank will be:

Volume = Length x Width x Depth

Volume = 15.81 x 15.81 x 1.67

Volume = 397.25 gallons

Since the tank needs to hold 500 gallons with 2 inches of head space, we can find the weight of the water using the formula:

Weight = Volume x Density

The density of water is approximately 8.34 pounds per gallon, so:

Weight = 397.25 x 8.34

Weight ≈ 3,313.69 pounds

So the weight of the water in the tank will be approximately 3,313.69 pounds.
A. To minimize the amount of glass used for the rectangular fish tank, you'll need to create a tank with equal width and length (a square base). Since the tank needs to hold 500 gallons and is 2 feet deep, you can use the formula: Volume = Length × Width × Depth. Convert 500 gallons to cubic feet (1 gallon ≈ 0.1337 cubic feet), so 500 gallons ≈ 66.85 cubic feet.

66.85 = Length × Width × 2
33.425 = Length × Width

Since the length and width are equal, you can solve for one of the dimensions:

Length = Width = √33.425 ≈ 5.78 feet

So, the tank dimensions will be approximately 5.78 feet by 5.78 feet by 2 feet.

B. To find the weight of the water in the tank, first determine the volume of the water. There will be 2 inches of headspace (2 inches ≈ 0.167 feet), so the water depth is 2 - 0.167 = 1.833 feet. The volume of the water is:

Volume = Length × Width × Depth = 5.78 × 5.78 × 1.833 ≈ 61.05 cubic feet

To find the weight of the water, multiply the volume by the weight of water per cubic foot (62.43 lbs/cubic foot):

Weight = 61.05 × 62.43 ≈ 3,809 lbs

Answer: 10 pencils and 5 notebooks.

Step-by-step explanation:

       We will create a system of equations using the information given. Let n be equal to the number of notebooks and p be equal to the number of pencils.

She spent $23.25 on notebooks and pencils. Notebooks cost $2.49 each and pencils cost $1.08 each.

       $2.49n + $1.08p = $23.25

She bought a total of 15 notebooks and pencils.

       n + p = 15

Next, we will solve for p by substituting.

       n + p = 15 ➜ n = 15 - p

       $2.49n + $1.08p = $23.25

       $2.49(15 - p) + $1.08p = $23.25

       $37.35 - $2.49p + $1.08p = $23.25

       $37.35 - $1.41p =  $23.25

       -$1.41p =  -$14.10

       p = 10 pencils

Lastly, we will solve for n by substituting:

       n = 15 - p

       n = 15 - 10

       n = 5

Therefore, the solutions of the equation in the interval [0, 2) are: x = π/6, -π/6 (in radians) or x = 30°, -30° (in degrees). Note that the solutions are listed in ascending order.

The equation is:

sec(x) = 2√3/3

First, we can find the values of x for which sec(x) = 2√3/3. Recall that sec(x) = 1/cos(x), so we have:

1/cos(x) = 2√3/3

Multiplying both sides by cos(x), we get:

1 = 2√3/3 cos(x)

cos(x) = 3/(2√3) = √3/2

Now, we can use the unit circle to find the solutions of the equation in the interval [0, 2).

cos(x) = √3/2 when x is π/6 or 11π/6 (in radians), or 30° or 330° (in degrees), since these are the angles in the unit circle where the x-coordinate is √3/2.

However, we need to make sure that these solutions are in the interval [0, 2). Since the period of sec(x) is 2π, we can add or subtract 2π to any solution to get another solution. Therefore, we need to find the solutions in the interval [0, 2π) that correspond to the solutions we found above.

π/6 is already in the interval [0, 2π), so it is a solution in the interval [0, 2). To find the other solution in the interval [0, 2), we can add 2π to 11π/6:

11π/6 + 2π = 23π/6

23π/6 is not in the interval [0, 2), so we need to subtract 2π instead:

11π/6 - 2π = -π/6

-π/6 is in the interval [0, 2), so it is also a solution in the interval [0, 2).

Therefore, the solutions of the equation in the interval [0, 2) are:

x = π/6, -π/6 (in radians) or x = 30°, -30° (in degrees)

Note that the solutions are listed in ascending order.

The required answer is the double declining-balance method is $9,840.

To calculate the depreciation expense for 2020 using the double declining-balance method, we first need to determine the asset's straight-line depreciation rate. This is calculated by subtracting the residual value from the cost of the asset and dividing by the asset's useful life:

Depreciation base = $30,000 - $3,000 = $27,000
Annual depreciation expense (straight-line) = Depreciation base / Useful life = $27,000 / 5 = $5,400

Next, we need to determine the double declining-balance rate, which is twice the straight-line rate. Therefore:
Double declining-balance rate = 2 x (1 / Useful life) = 2 x (1 / 5) = 0.40 or 40%
Now we can calculate the depreciation expense for 2020:
Depreciation expense (2020) = Book value (beginning of year) x Double declining-balance rate

The book value at the beginning of 2020 would be the cost of the asset minus accumulated depreciation for the first year:
Book value (beginning of 2020) = $30,000 - ($5,400 x 1) = $24,600
As a result, depreciation increases during the initial year of possession and decreases thereafter.

Therefore:

Depreciation expense (2020) = $24,600 x 0.40 = $9,840

So the amount of depreciation expense for 2020, the second year of the asset's life,

using the double declining-balance method is $9,840.
