Answer:
Probability of orange hat = 0.0833
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to find the probability of getting an orange hat while we randomly choose from 444 pieces of clothing and 333 colors.
So we have to get hat from the clothing and we have to get orange color from the colors. All shirts , pants , socks and hats are in equal numbers and are 111 each. Also purple, blue and orange are 111 each in number.
The probability of getting hats =
= 0.25
The probability of getting orange = = 0.333
Final probability = 0.25 0.333
= 0.0833

Suppose you invest $15,000 at the age of 35, and agree to start receiving
payments at the age of 45. At age 41, you decide you want to withdraw $5000
from your account. What is the IRS fee you will have to pay? Remember, the
IRS charges 10% if you withdraw before you are 59.5.
A. $500.00
B. $750.00
C. $50.00
D. $250.00
Answer:
A. $500.00
Step-by-step explanation:
IRS popularly known as Internal revenue service charges an IRS fee under the authority of the Federal Law and policy agencies. This implementation of IRS fee is to recuperate the cost of rendering a service to the masses.
From the given information in the question:
Suppose you invest $15,000 at the age of 35 and agree to start receiving payments at the age of 45.
At age 41, you decide you want to withdraw $5000 from your account.
Since the investor is still 41 years of age ; IRS will charge 10% of the withdrawal amount.
IRS fee = 10% of $5000
IRS fee = 0.1 × $5000
IRS fee = $500
Find the unknown side length, x. Write your answer in simplest radical form.
Answer:
Correct option: D
Step-by-step explanation:
In the figure we have a right triangle, that is, one of the angles is a 90° angle. Therefore, we can use the Pythagoras' theorem to find the relation between the sides of the triangle:
[tex]a^2 = b^2 + c^2[/tex]
Where b and c are cathetus of the triangle (sides adjacent to the 90° angle) and a is the hypotenuse (opposite side to the 90° angle).
So in our case, we have that x is the hypotenuse, and 40 and 42 are cathetus, so we have:
[tex]x^2 = 40^2 + 42^2[/tex]
[tex]x^2 = 1600 + 1764[/tex]
[tex]x^2 = 3364[/tex]
[tex]x = 58[/tex]
So the correct option is D.
Subtract the rational expressions: (x/x+2)-(2/x)

O 20
O 40
Answer:
(F·G)(2) = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume you want (F·G)(2).
(F·G)(2) = F(2)·G(2)
F(2) = 4 . . . . from the ordered pair (2, 4)
G(2) = 5 . . . .from the ordered pair (2, 5)
So your product is ...
F(2)·G(2) = 4·5 = 20
(F·G)(2) = 20

Alex has built a garden shed in the shape shown.
(A) Alex plans to paint the outside of the shed, including the roof but not the floor. One can of paint can cover 6m^2 . How many cans of paint will Alex need.
(B)If one can of paint costs $25.50, what will the cost be including 13% tax.
Answer:
A) 22 cans required to paint
B) Including 13% tax, cost of painting = $633.93
Step-by-step explanation:
As we check the figure, we have a composite figure.
Cuboid on the base and a pyramid on the top of it.
To find the area to be painted, we have 4 rectangular faces of cuboid with dimensions 6m [tex]\times[/tex] 3m.
And 4 triangular faces of pyramid with Base = 6m and Height 5m.
So, total area to be painted = 4 rectangular faces + 4 triangular faces
Area of rectangle = Length [tex]\times[/tex] Width = 6 [tex]\times[/tex] 3 = 18 [tex]m^2[/tex]
Area of triangle = [tex]\frac{1}{2}\times Base \times Height =\frac{1}{2}\times 6 \times 5 = 15\ m^{2}[/tex]
Total area to be painted = 4 \times 18 + 4 \times 15 = 72 + 60 = 132 [tex]m^2[/tex]
A) Area painted by 1 can = 6 [tex]m^2[/tex]
Cans required to paint 132 [tex]m^2[/tex] = [tex]\frac{132}{6} = 22\ cans[/tex]
B)
Cost of 1 can = $25.50
Cost of 22 can = $25.50 [tex]\times[/tex] 22 = $561
Including tax of 13% = $561 + $561 [tex]\times \frac{13}{100}[/tex] = $561 + $72.93 = $633.93
So, the answers are:
A) 22 cans required to paint
B) Including 13% tax, cost of painting = $633.93
The number of users on a website has grown exponentially since its launch. After 1 month, there were 120 users. After 4 months, there were 960 users. Find the exponential function that models the number of users x months after the website was launched. Write your answer in the form f(x)=a(b)x.
Answer:
f(x) = 60(2)ˣ
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = a(b)ˣ
After one month:
120 = a(b)¹
After four months:
960 = a(b)⁴
Divide the second equation by the first:
8 = b³
b = 2
Plug into either equation and find a.
120 = a(2)¹
a = 60
Therefore, f(x) = 60(2)ˣ.

C) Conclusions drawn using inductive reasoning are always false, while conclusions drawn using deductive reasoning are always true. D) Conclusions drawn using deductive reasoning are always valid, while conclusions drawn using inductive reasoning may or may not be valid.
Answer:
B) Conclusions drawn using inductive reasoning are always valid, while conclusions drawn using deductive reasoning may or may not be valid.
Step-by-step explanation:
Inductive reasoning uses logic and uses more evidence to draw conclusions. In deductive reasoning, WE decide whether a deductive statement is true by assessing the strength of the link between the premises and the conclusion. But some deductive reasoning may appear to make sense without pointing to a truth
Answer:
The answer is D. Conclusions drawn using deductive reasoning are always valid, while conclusions drawn using inductive reasoning may or may not be valid.

In circle O, radius OQ measures 9 inches and arc PQ measures 6π inches. Circle O is shown. Line segments P O and Q O are radii with length of 9 inches. Angle P O Q is theta. What is the measure, in radians, of central angle POQ?
Answer:
2π/3 radStep-by-step explanation:
To get theta, we will apply the formula for calculating the length of an arc as shown;
Length of an arc = theta/360 * 2πr
theta is the central angle (required)
r is the radius of the circle
Given r = 9 inches and length of the arc PQ = 6π in
Substituting this given values into the formula to get the central angle theta;
6π = theta/360 * 2πr
Dividing both sides by 2πr
theta/360 = 6π/2πr
theta/360 = 3/r
theta/360 = 3/9
theta/360 = 1/3
cross multiplying;
3*theta = 360
theta = 360/3
theta = 120°
Since 180° = π rad
120° = x
x = 120π/180
x = 2π/3 rad
Hence the measure of the central angle in radians is 2π/3 rad

In Sparrowtown, the use of landlines has been declining at a rate of 5% every year. If there are 20,000 landlines this year, how many will there be in 15 years? If necessary, round your answer to the nearest whole number.
Answer:
5,000
Step-by-step explanation:
If it decreases by 5% a year, it'll decrease by 75% in 15 years
i.e 1 year = 5%
15 years = x
Cross multiply
x = 75%
Therefore, since it decreases by 75%
100 - 75 x 20,000 = 5,000

Step-by-step explanation:
Marguerite wants to rent a carpet cleaner. Company A rents a carpet cleaner for $15 per day. Company B rents a carpet cleaner for $100 per week, with a one-time fee of $5. The following functions represent the rate structures of the two rental companies: x = the number of weeks Company A f(x) = 15(7x) Company B g(x) = 100x + 5 The function h(x) = f(x) – g(x) represents the difference between the two rate structures. Determine which statements about h(x) and about renting a carpet cleaner are true. Check all that apply. If Marguerite rents for 2 weeks, it will cost her more if she rents from Company B. If Marguerite rents for 2 weeks, it will cost her less if she rents from Company B. If Marguerite rents for 1 week, it will cost her the same at either company. If Marguerite rents for 1 week, it will cost her more if she rents from Company A. h(x) = 5x – 5 h(x) = 5x + 5
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
Company A f(x) = 15(7x)
Company B g(x) = 100x + 5
If Marguerite rents for 2 weeks, it will cost her more if she rents from Company B
A = 105(2) = 210
B = 100(2) + 5 = 205 B costs less False
f Marguerite rents for 2 weeks, it will cost her less if she rents from Company B
A = 105(2) = 210
B = 100(2) + 5 = 205 B costs less True
If Marguerite rents for 1 week, it will cost her the same at either company
A = 105(1) = 105
B = 100(1) +5 = 105 True
If Marguerite rents for 1 week, it will cost her more if she rents from Company A
A = 105(1) = 105
B = 100(1) +5 = 105 False
h(x) = 5x – 5
h(x) = f(x) – g(x)
=15(7x) - ( 100x + 5)
= 105x - 100x -5
= 5x-5 True
h(x) = 5x + 5 False
Answer:
If Marguerite rents for 2 weeks, it will cost her less if she rents from Company B.
If Marguerite rents for 1 week, it will cost her the same at either company.
h(x) = 5x - 5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Company A: f(x) = 15(7x)
Company B: g(x) = 100x + 5
h(x) = f(x) - g(x)
So, the function h(x) is the difference between Company A's rental and Company B's rental.
h(x) = (15(7x)) - (100x + 5)
= (105x) - (100x + 5)
= 105x - 100x - 5
= 5x - 5
h(x) = 5x - 5.
Let's say that Marguerite rents for 1 week. In Company A, that will cost her 15 * 7 = 105. In Company B, it will cost her 100 + 5 = 105. So, if Marguerite rents for 1 week, it will cost her the same at either company.
Let's say that Marguerite rents for 2 weeks. In Company A, that will cost her 15 * 7 * 2 = 30 * 7 = 210. In Company B, it will cost her 100 * 2 + 5 = 200 + 5 = 205. So, if Marguerite rents for 2 weeks, it will cost her less if she rents from Company B.

Answer:
1. k=0
2. yes, result is still a polynomial.
3. yes, f and g must have the same degree to have deg(f+g) < deg(f) or deg(g)
Step-by-step explanation:
1. for what constant k must f(k) always equal the constant term of f(x) for any polynomial f(x)
for k=0 any polynomial f(x) will reduce f(k) to the constant term.
2. If we multiply a polynomial by a constant, is the result a polynomial?
Yes, If we multiply a polynomial by a constant, the result is always a polynomial.
3. if deg(f+g) is less than both deg f and deg g, then must f and g have the same degree?
Yes.
If
deg(f+g) < deg(f) and
deg(f+g) < deg(g)
then it means that the two leading terms cancel out, which can happen only if f and g have the same degree.

Two trains leave New York at the same time heading in opposite directions. Train A travels at 4/5 the speed of train one. After seven hours they are 693 miles apart. What was the speed of train A? Can you pls help me fast
=============================================
Work Shown:
x = speed of train A
y = speed of train B
"train A travels 4/5 the speed of train B" (I'm assuming "train one" is supposed to read "train B"). So this means x = (4/5)y
distance = rate*time
d = x*7
d = (4/5)y*7 = (28/5)y represents the distance train A travels
d = y*7 = 7y represents the distance train B travels
summing those distances will give us 693
(28/5)y + 7y = 693
5*( (28/5)y + 7y ) = 5*693
28y + 35y = 3465
63y = 3465
y = 3465/63
y = 55
Train B's speed is 55 mph
4/5 of that is (4/5)y = (4/5)*55 = 4*11 = 44 mph
Train A's speed is 44 mph

In a soccer league, the ratio of boys to girls is 4 to 6. There are a total of 50 players in the soccer league. Determine how many girls play in the soccer league.
Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
We can call the number of boys 4x and girls 6x so we can write:
4x + 6x = 50
10x = 50
x = 5, therefore the number of girls is 6x = 6 * 5 = 30.
Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
In the ratio 4:6, we can think of this like 4 boys and 6 girls out of 10 team members.
We can find how many girls play by multiplying 6 by 5, since 50 divided by 10 is 5.
6(5) = 30, so 30 girls play in the soccer league.

Step-by-step explanation:
We can go through each answer choice and examine whether it represents the question:
1) This does not represent the question because 10% of 6 is 0.6. The question is asking to find a number that 6 = 10% of, not finding 10% of 6.
2) Correct because a number multiplied by 10%, or 0.1, should be equal to 6 to answer the question.
3) Correct because 6 is equivalent to 10% of the answer, which is stated in this answer choice.
4) Correct because 6 should be 10% of the answer.
Therefore, the incorrect choice would be Choice 1.
"An engineer designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The engineer designed the valve such that it would produce a mean pressure of 4.1 pounds/square inch. It is believed that the valve performs above the specifications. The valve was tested on 260 engines and the mean pressure was 4.2 pounds/square inch. Assume the standard deviation is known to be 0.9. A level of significance of 0.02 will be used. Determine the decision rule. Enter the decision rule."
Answer:
H₀ is accepted, we don´t have evidence to claim valves produces more than 4,1 pounds/square inch
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Distribution
Population mean μ₀ = 4.1
Population standard deviation σ = 0,9
Sample size n = 260
Sample mean μ = 4,2
Level of significance 0,02 α = 0,02 form z-table we find z score
z(c) = 2,05 (critical value)
Test hypothesis
Null hypothesis H₀ μ = μ₀
Alternative hypothesis Hₐ μ > μ₀
Is a one tail-test ( to the right. Values have a mean over the population mean)
z(s) = ( μ - μ₀ )/ σ /√n
z(s) = 4,2 - 4,1 / 0,9/√260
z(s) = 0,1 *16,1245 / 0,9
z(s) = 1,7916
To compare z(s) and z(c)
z(s) < z(c)
Then z(s) is in the acceptance region, we accept H₀

The first sample size is [tex]n_1 = 146[/tex]
The second sample size is [tex]n_2 = 180[/tex]
The first sample mean is [tex]\= x_1 = 51.6[/tex]
The second sample mean is [tex]\= x_2 = 62.7[/tex]
The first standard deviation is [tex]\sigma _1 = 9.42[/tex]
The second standard deviation is [tex]\sigma _2 = 14.5[/tex]
Given that the confidence level is 98% then the significance level is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]\alpha = (100 -98 )\%[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 2 \%[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 0.02[/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} } = 2.33[/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{\sigma_1^2}{n_1^2} + \frac{\sigma_2^2}{n_2^2} }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]E = 2.33 * \sqrt{ \frac{9.42^2}{146^2} + \frac{14.5^2}{180^2} }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]E = 2.33 * \sqrt{ \frac{9.42^2}{146^2} + \frac{14.5^2}{180^2} }[/tex]
[tex]E = 0.2405[/tex]
The 98% confidence interval is mathematically represented as
[tex](\= x _ 1 - \= x_2 ) - E < \mu_1 -\mu_2 < (\= x _ 1 - \= x_2 ) + E[/tex]
substituting values
[tex](51.6 - 62.7) - 0.2405 < \mu_1 -\mu_2 < (51.6 - 62.7) + 0.2405[/tex]
[tex]-11.34 < \mu_1 -\mu_2 < -10.86[/tex]
