18. You Are Standing Beside The Colorado River, 400 Feetfrom The Base Of Hoover Dam. Using An Electronic

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: B. 781.6 feet approximately

=======================================================

Work Shown:

The horizontal portion is 400+166 = 566 feet. Label this as 'a', so a = 566. The vertical side is unknown, so b = x. The hypotenuse is c = 965

Use the pythagorean theorem

a^2+b^2 = c^2

566^2+x^2 = 965^2

x^2 = 965^2 - 566^2

x = sqrt( 965^2 - 566^2 )

x = 781.58108984289 which is approximate

x = 781.6 feet when rounding to one decimal place

The FDA regulates that a fish that is consumed is allowed to contain at most 1 mg/kg of mercury. In Florida, bass fish were collected in 53 different lakes to measure the amount of mercury in the fish from each of the 53 lakes. Do the data provide enough evidence to show that the fish in all Florida lakes have different mercury than the allowable amount?

Required:
State the random variable, population parameter, and hypotheses.

Answers

Answer:

Yes. At a significance level of 0.05, there is enough evidence to support the claim that the fish in all Florida lakes have different mercury than the allowable amount.

The random variable is the sample mean amount of mercury in the bass fish from the lakes of Florida.

The population parameter is the mean amount of mercury in the bass fish of Florida lakes.

The alternative hypothesis (Ha) states that the amount of mercury significantly differs from 1 mg/kg.

The null hypothesis (H0) states that the amount of mercury is not significantly different from 1 mg/kg.

[tex]H_0: \mu=1\\\\H_a:\mu\neq 1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete.

There is no data provided.

We will work with a sample mean of 0.95 mg/kg and sample standard deviation of 0.15 mg/kg to show the procedure.

This is a hypothesis test for the population mean.

The claim is that the fish in all Florida lakes have different mercury than the allowable amount (1 mg of mercury per kg of fish).

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]H_0: \mu=1\\\\H_a:\mu\neq 1[/tex]

The significance level is assumed to be 0.05.

The sample has a size n=53.

The sample mean is M=0.95.

As the standard deviation of the population is not known, we estimate it with the sample standard deviation, that has a value of s=0.15.

The estimated standard error of the mean is computed using the formula:

[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{0.15}{\sqrt{53}}=0.0206[/tex]

Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

[tex]t=\dfrac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{0.95-1}{0.0206}=\dfrac{-0.05}{0.0206}=-2.427[/tex]

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

[tex]df=n-1=53-1=52[/tex]

This test is a two-tailed test, with 52 degrees of freedom and t=-2.427, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

[tex]\text{P-value}=2\cdot P(t<-2.427)=0.019[/tex]

As the P-value (0.019) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the effect is significant.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

At a significance level of 0.05, there is enough evidence to support the claim that the fish in all Florida lakes have different mercury than the allowable amount.

Answers

Answer:

You will have $29,000 in 30 years, and you need to start with about $2,772.28 to make $14,000 in 9 years

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total investment use the equation [tex]A = P(1 + rt)[/tex]

Where A equals total investment, P is your start investment, r is your rate, and t is time.

[tex]A=2,000(1+(0.45 * 30))[/tex]

[tex]A=2,000(1+13.5)[/tex]

[tex]A=2,000*14.5[/tex]

[tex]A=29,000[/tex]

To find the start investment use the equation [tex]P = A / (1 + rt)[/tex]

[tex]P=14,000/(1+(0.45*9))[/tex]

[tex]P=14,000/(1+4.05)[/tex]

[tex]P=14,000/5.05[/tex]

As per the properties of parallel lines and interior alternate angles postulate, we can prove that:

[tex]m\angle 5+m\angle 2+m\angle 6=180^\circ[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Line y || z

i.e. y is parallel to z.

To Prove:

[tex]m\angle 5+m\angle 2+m\angle 6=180^\circ[/tex]

Solution:

It is given that the lines y and z are parallel to each other.

[tex]m\angle 5, m\angle 1[/tex] are interior alternate angles because lines y and z are parallel and one line AC cuts them.

So, [tex]m\angle 5= m\angle 1[/tex] ..... (1)

Similarly,

[tex]m\angle 6, m\angle 3[/tex] are interior alternate angles because lines y and z are parallel and one line AB cuts them.

So, [tex]m\angle 6= m\angle 3[/tex] ...... (2)

Now, we know that the line y is a straight line and A is one point on it.

Sum of all the angles on one side of a line on a point is always equal to [tex]180^\circ[/tex].

i.e.

[tex]m\angle 1+m\angle 2+m\angle 3=180^\circ[/tex]

Using equations (1) and (2):

We can see that:

[tex]m\angle 5+m\angle 2+m\angle 6=180^\circ[/tex]

Hence proved.

The CEO of Millennium Dairy Product, a small venture among 10 partners each having 100,000 shares, sought to raise an additional Rs.50 million in a private placement of equity in his early stage dairy product company. The CEO conservatively projected net income of Rs.50 million in year 5, and knew that the comparable companies traded at a price earnings ratio of 20X. She approached SBI caps, a venture capitalist with her proposal to seek funds. (10) a) What share of the company would SBI caps require today if their required rate of return was 50%? b) If the company had 1000,000 shares outstanding before the private placement, how many shares should SBI caps purchase? c)What price per share should she agree to pay if her required return was 50%? d)What are the pre money and post valuations? e) What are the Carried interests of the VC and the promoters?

Answers

Answer:

Millennium Dairy Product

a) Share of the company that SBI Caps should require today to get a required rate of return of 50%.

= 50%

b) If the company had 1,000,000 (100,000 x10) shares outstanding before the private placement, SBI Caps should purchase

1,000,000 shares = 50% of (1,000,000 + 1,000,000) shares

Assuming the founding promoters are not giving up their shares, instead, new equity shares are being issued.

c) The price per share SBI Caps should agree to pay, if her required return was 50% is

Rs.50 per share, which will provide the required additional equity financing of (Rs.50 million) since Rs.50 x 1,000,000 equals Rs.50 million.

d) Pre money and post money valuations:

These are based on the calculated Market Price of Rs.1,000 per share from the Price/Earnings Ratio.

Pre money valuation will be Rs.1,000 x 1,000,000 shares = Rs.1 billion

Post money valuation will be Rs.1,000 x 2,000,000 shares = Rs.2 billion

e) Carried interests of the VC and the promoters

VC's carried interest = share of profits = 50% xRs.50 million = Rs.25 million

Promoters' carried interest = Rs.25 million

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Calculation of share in the company:

SBI Cap's required rate of return is 50%

If she invests Rs.50 million today, her expected return will be equal to Rs.50 million x 50% = Rs.25 million

Since rate of return = Net Income/Initial Investment or (Current value of investment - Initial Investment)/Initial Investment.

This return will be equal to 50% of the total net income of Rs.50 million

b) Price/Earnings P/E ratio = Market price per share/Earnings per share (EPS)

Since P/E ratio of similar companies = 20 times,

The company's P/E = 20 times x EPS

With calculated EPS = Rs.50 million /1,000,000 = Rs.50

Therefore, price per share = 20 x Rs.50 = Rs.1,000

Pre money valuation = Rs.1,000 x 1 million shares = Rs.1 billion

Post money valuation = Rs.1,000 x 2 million shares = Rs.2 billion

c) The carried interest is the share of profits to which the promoters and the Venture Capitalists are entitled.  Their respective shares are 50% of the net income = Rs.25 million each.

d) The pre money and post money valuations:  The pre money valuation is the valuation of the company before the additional equity financing.  The post money valuation is the valuation of the company after the additional equity financing.  There are many ways to value a company.  In this case, we have used the P/E ratio as a basis for the valuation.  However, we did not dilute the earnings per share post money, for simplicity.

In the diagram, DG = 12, GF = 4, EH = 9, and HF = 3. Triangle D E F is shown. Line G H is drawn parallel to side D E within the triangle to form triangle G F H. The length of D G is 12, the length of G F is 4, the length of E H is 9, and the length of H F is 3. To prove that △DFE ~ △GFH by the SAS similarity theorem, it can be stated that StartFraction D F Over G F EndFraction = StartFraction E F Over H F EndFraction and ∠DFE is 4 times greater than ∠GFH. ∠FHG is One-fourth the measure of ∠FED. ∠DFE is congruent to ∠GFH. ∠FHG is congruent to ∠EFD.

To prove that △DFE ~ △GFH by SAS similartiy theorem, then option C. ∠DFE is congruent to ∠GFH is appropriate. So that: [tex]\frac{DF}{GF}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{EF}{HF}[/tex] and ∠DFE is congruent to ∠GFH.

Given ΔDEF as shown in the diagram attached to this answer, the following can be observed:

By comparing ΔDEF and ΔGFH

DF = DG + GF

     = 12 + 4

DF = 16

Also,

EF = EH + HF

    = 9 + 3

EF = 12

Comparing the sides of ΔDEF and ΔGFH, we have;

[tex]\frac{DF}{GF}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{EF}{HF}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{16}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12}{3}[/tex]

4 = 4

Thus, the two triangles have similar sides.

Comparing the included angle <DFE and <GFH, then;

∠DFE is congruent to ∠GFH

So that the appropriate answer to the given question is option C. ∠DFE is congruent to ∠GFH

Therefore, to prove that △DFE ~ △GFH by the SAS similarity theorem;

[tex]\frac{DF}{GF}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{EF}{HF}[/tex] and ∠DFE is congruent to ∠GFH.

2. Suppose the 90% confidence interval for the mean SAT scores of applicants at a business college is given by [1690, 1810]. This confidence interval uses the sample mean and sample standard deviation based on 25 observations. What are the sample mean and sample standard deviation used for this interval

Answers

Answer:

The sample mean used for this interval is 1750.

The sample standard deviation used for this interval was of 175.34

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval concepts:

A confidence interval has two bounds, a lower bound and an upper bound.

A confidence interval is symmetric, which means that the point estimate used is the mid point between these two bounds, that is, the mean of the two bounds.

The margin of error is the subtraction of these two bounds divided by two.

In this question:

Lower bound: 1690

Upper bound: 1810

Sample mean

[tex]\frac{1690 + 1810}{2} = 1750[/tex]

The sample mean used for this interval is 1750.

Sample standard deviation:

The first step is finding the margin of error:

[tex]M = \frac{1810 - 1690}{2} = 60[/tex]

Now we have to develop the problem a bit.

We want the sample standard deviation, so we use the T-distribution.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 25 - 1 = 24

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 24 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95[/tex]. So we have T = 1.711

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

We have that: [tex]M = 60, T = 1.711, n = 25[/tex]

We have to find s

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]60 = 1.711\frac{s}{\sqrt{25}}[/tex]

[tex]1.711s = 60*5[/tex]

[tex]s = \frac{60*5}{1.711}[/tex]

[tex]s = 175.34[/tex]

The sample standard deviation used for this interval was of 175.34

Two pumps connected in parallel fail independently of one another on any given day. The probability that only the older pump will fail is 0.15, and the probability that only the newer pump will fail is 0.10. What is the probability that the pumping system will fail on any given day (which happens if both pumps fail)

Answers

The probability of the pumping system failing on any given day is 0.015, or 1.5 percent.

Given data:

To find the probability that the pumping system will fail on any given day,  consider the probabilities of different failure scenarios for the two pumps.

Let's denote the events as follows:

A = Only the older pump fails

B = Only the newer pump fails

P(A) = 0.15 (probability that only the older pump fails)

P(B) = 0.10 (probability that only the newer pump fails)

To find the probability that both pumps fail, which can be denoted as the event A ∩ B.

Since the two pumps fail independently of each other, use the multiplication rule for independent events to calculate the probability of both events occurring:

P(A ∩ B) = P(A) * P(B)

Substituting the given probabilities:

P(A ∩ B) = 0.15 * 0.10

= 0.015

Hence, the probability that the pumping system will fail on any given day (when both pumps fail) is 0.015 or 1.5%.

Answers

Answer: The equations are

w + s = 4500

2.25s = 4500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the number of bottles of water that the football manager bought.

Let s represent the number of bottles of soda that the football manager bought.

The manager needs to buy a total of 4,500 drinks. This means that

w + s = 4500

He also needs to have 25% more water than soda.

25% of soda = 25/100 × s = 0.25s

25% more of water than soda = s + 0.25s = 1.25s

The equation would be

1.25s + s = 4500

2.25s = 4500

4.428 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

If the learning rate is 0.81, the slope of the learning curve is:

[tex]b=\frac{ln(0.81)}{ln(2)} \\b=-0.304[/tex]

The time it takes to produce the n-th unit is:

[tex]T_n=T_1*n^b[/tex]

If T1 = 8 hours, the time required to produce the seventh unit will be:

[tex]T_n=8*7^{-0.304}\\T_n=4.428\ hours[/tex]

It will take roughly 4.428 hours.

The sum of Joe's and Sheila's ages is 115. Fourteen years ago, Joe was twice as old as Sheila. How old is Sheila now?

Answers

Answer:  Sheila today = [tex]46\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]  yrs old

Step-by-step explanation:

   J + S = 115 v⇒  J = 115 - S

Current Ages                        Ages 14 years ago

 Joe (J) = 115 - S                      J - 14 = 2(S - 14)

 Sheila (S) = S

Substitute J = 115 - S into the "14 years ago" equation

      J    - 14 = 2(S - 14)

(115 - S) - 14 = 2(S - 14)

111 -S = 2S - 28

111 = 3S  - 28

139 = 3S

46 [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] = S

It is odd that the result was not an integer.  I wonder if you meant to type "Joe was twice as old as Sheila is today.  That would change the equation to:

J - 14 = 2S

111 - S = 2S

111 = 3S

37 = S

Answer: 6x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is 1/2bh

Thus, simply multiply 2x*3x = 6x^2

Hope it helps <3

Answer:

[tex]3 {x}^{2} [/tex]

Solution,

Base(b)= 3x

Height(h) = 2x

Now,

Finding the area of triangle:

[tex] \frac{1}{2} \times b \times h[/tex]

[tex] \frac{1}{2} \times 3x \times 2x[/tex]

[tex] \frac{1}{2} \times 6 {x}^{2} [/tex]

[tex]3 {x}^{2} [/tex]

Hope this helps....

Good luck on your assignment....
