A 60-watt light bulb advertises that it will last 1500 hours. The lifetimes of these light bulbs is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 1550 hours and a standard deviation of 57 hours. What proportion of these light bulbs will last less than the advertised time

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The proportion of these light bulbs that will last less than the advertised time is 18.94% or 0.1894

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing to do here is to calculate the z-score

Mathematically;

z-score = (x - mean)/SD

= (1500-1550)/57 = -50/57 = -0.88

So the proportion we will need to find is;

P( z < -0.88)

We shall use the standard score table for this and our answer from the table is 0.1894 which is same as 18.94%

Question 39).

Let the operation which defines the relation between a and b is O.

Relation between a and b has been given as,

a O b = [tex]\frac{(a+b)}{(a-b)}[/tex]

Following the same operation, relation between 3 and y will be,

3 O y = [tex]\frac{3+y}{3-y}[/tex]

Since 3 O y = 4,

[tex]\frac{3+y}{3-y}=4[/tex]

3 + y = 12 - 4y

3 + y + 4y = 12 - 4y + 4y

3 + 5y = 12

A 6 foot person casts a 26 foot shadow. What is the angle of elevation of the sun? (nearest whole degree)

Answers

Answer:

13°

Step-by-step explanation:

The trigonometric ratio formula can be used in calculating the angle of elevation (x°) of the sun, as the person makes a right angle with the ground.

The height of the person would be the opposite length = 6 ft, the shadow of the person would be the adjacent length = 26 ft

Therefore, according to the trigonometric ratio formula, we would calculate angle of elevation (x°) as follows:

[tex] tan x = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} [/tex]

[tex] tan x = \frac{6}{26} [/tex]

[tex] tan x = 0.2308 [/tex]

x = tan-¹(0.2308)

x = 12.996

x ≈ 13° (to the nearest whole degree)

The angle of elevation of the sun = 13°

An aquarium is to be built to hold 60 m3of volume. The base is to be made of slate and the sides aremade of glass, and it has no top. If stone costs $120/m2and glass costs $30/m2, find the dimensions which willminimize the cost of building the aquarium, and find the minimum cost.

Answers

Answer:

Aquarium dimensions:

x = 3,106 m

h = 6,22 m

C(min) = 1277,62 $

Step-by-step explanation: (INCOMPLETE QUESTION)

We have to assume:

The shape of the aquarium  (square base)

Let´s call "x" the side of the base, then h ( the heigh)

V(a) = x²*h          h = V(a)/x²      

Cost of Aquarium   C(a) = cost of the base (in stones) + 4* cost of one side (in glass)

C(a) = Area of the base *120 + 4*Area of one side*30

Area of the base is x²

Area of one side  is   x*h   or  x*V(a)/x²  

Area of one side is V(a)/x

C(x) = 120*x² + 4*30*60/x

C(x) = 120*x² +  7200/x

Taking derivatives on both sides of the equation we get

C´(x) = 2*120*x  - 7200/x²

C´(x) = 0 means    240 *x  - 7200/x² = 0

240*x³ - 7200 = 0

x³ = 7200/240

x = 3,106 m   and  h = 60 /x²     h =   6,22 m

and C (min) = 120*(3,106)³ - 7200 / 3,106

C(min) =  3595,72 - 2318,1

C(min) = 1277,62

Use Newton's method to approximate the indicated root of the equation correct to six decimal places. The negative root of ex = 4 − x2

Answers

Answer:

x = -1.964636

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation;

eˣ = 4 - x²

This can be re-written as;

eˣ - 4 + x² = 0

Let

f(x) = eˣ - 4 + x²    -----------(i)

To use Newton's method, we need to get the first derivative of the above equation as follows;

f¹(x) = eˣ - 0 + 2x

f¹(x) = eˣ + 2x         -----------(ii)

The graph of f(x) has been attached to this response.

As shown in the graph, the curve intersects the x-axis twice - around x = -2 and x = 1. These are the approximate roots of the equation.

Since the question requires that we use the negative root, then we start using the Newton's law with a guess of x₀ = -2 at n=0

From Newton's method,

[tex]x_{n+1} = x_n + \frac{f(x_{n})}{f^1(x_{n})}[/tex]

=> When n=0, the equation becomes;

[tex]x_{1} = x_0 - \frac{f(x_{0})}{f^1(x_{0})}[/tex]

[tex]x_{1} = -2 - \frac{f(-2)}{f^1(-2)}[/tex]

Where f(-2) and f¹(-2) are found by plugging x = -2 into equations (i) and (ii) as follows;

f(-2) = e⁻² - 4 + (-2)²

f(-2) = e⁻² = 0.13533528323

And;

f¹(2) = e⁻² + 2(-2)

f¹(2) = e⁻² - 4 = -3.8646647167

Therefore

[tex]x_{1} = -2 - \frac{0.13533528323}{-3.8646647167}[/tex]

[tex]x_{1} = -2 - \frac{0.13533528323}{-3.8646647167}[/tex]

[tex]x_{1} = -2 - -0.03501863503[/tex]

[tex]x_{1} = -2 + 0.03501863503[/tex]

[tex]x_{1} = -1.9649813649[/tex]

[tex]x_{1} = -1.96498136[/tex]         [to 8 decimal places]

=> When n=1, the equation becomes;

[tex]x_{2} = x_1 - \frac{f(x_{1})}{f^1(x_{1})}[/tex]

[tex]x_{2} = -1.96498136 - \frac{f(-1.9649813)}{f^1(-1.9649813)}[/tex]

Following the same procedure as above we have

[tex]x_{2} = -1.96463563[/tex]

=> When n=2, the equation becomes;

[tex]x_{3} = x_2 - \frac{f(x_{2})}{f^1(x_{2})}[/tex]

[tex]x_{3} = -1.96463563- \frac{f( -1.96463563)}{f^1( -1.96463563)}[/tex]

Following the same procedure as above we have

[tex]x_{3} = -1.96463560[/tex]

From the values of [tex]x_2[/tex] and [tex]x_3[/tex], it can be seen that there is no change in the first 6 decimal places, therefore, it is safe to say that the value of the negative root of the equation is approximately  -1.964636 to 6 decimal places.

Newton's method of approximation is one of the several ways of estimating values.

The approximated value of [tex]\mathbf{e^x = 4 - x^2}[/tex] to 6 decimal places is [tex]\mathbf{ -1.964636}[/tex]

The equation is given as:

[tex]\mathbf{e^x = 4 - x^2}[/tex]

Equate to 0

[tex]\mathbf{4 - x^2 = 0}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{x^2 = 4}[/tex]

Take square roots of both sides

[tex]\mathbf{ x= \pm 2}[/tex]

So, the negative root is:

[tex]\mathbf{x = -2}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{e^x = 4 - x^2}[/tex] becomes [tex]\mathbf{f(x) = e^x - 4 + x^2 }[/tex]

Differentiate

[tex]\mathbf{f'(x) = e^x +2x }[/tex]

Using Newton's method of approximation, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{x_{n+1} = x_n - \frac{f(x_n)}{f'(x_n)}}[/tex]

When x = -2, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{f'(-2) = e^{(-2)} +2(-2) = -3.86466471676}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{f(-2) = e^{-2} - 4 + (-2)^2 = 0.13533528323}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{x_{1} = -2 - \frac{0.13533528323}{-3.86466471676}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{1} = -2 + \frac{0.13533528323}{3.86466471676}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{1} = -1.96498136}[/tex]

Repeat the above process for repeated x values.

We have:

[tex]\mathbf{x_{2} = -1.96463563}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{3} = -1.96463560}[/tex]

Up till the 6th decimal places,

[tex]\mathbf{x_2 = x_3}[/tex]

Hence, the approximated value of [tex]\mathbf{e^x = 4 - x^2}[/tex] to 6 decimal places is [tex]\mathbf{ -1.964636}[/tex]

A car is being driven, in a straight line and at a uniform speed, towards the base of a vertical tower. The top of the tower is observed from the car and, in the process, it takes 10 min for the angle of elevation to change from 45° to 60°. After how much more time will this car reach the base of the tower? Options: a. 5( √3+ 1 ) b. 6 (√3 +√2) c. 7 (√3- 1) d. 8 (√3-2)

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is option a.

a. 5( √3+ 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the angle changes from 45° to 60° in 10 minutes.

This situation can be represented as right angled triangles [tex]\triangle[/tex]ABC (in the starting when angle is 45°)and [tex]\triangle[/tex]ABD (after 10 minutes when the angle is 60°).

AB is the tower (A be its top and B be its base).

Now, we need to find the time to be taken to cover the distance D to B.

First of all, let us consider [tex]\triangle[/tex]ABC.

Using tangent property:

[tex]tan\theta =\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}\\\Rightarrow tan 45=\dfrac{AB}{BC}\\\Rightarrow 1=\dfrac{h}{BC}\\\Rightarrow h = BC[/tex]

Using tangent property in [tex]\triangle[/tex]ABD:

[tex]\Rightarrow tan 60=\dfrac{AB}{BD}\\\Rightarrow \sqrt3=\dfrac{h}{BD}\\\Rightarrow BD = \dfrac{h}{ \sqrt3}\ units[/tex]

Now distance traveled in 10 minutes, CD  = BC - BD

[tex]\Rightarrow h - \dfrac{h}{\sqrt3}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{(\sqrt3-1)h}{\sqrt3}[/tex]

[tex]Speed =\dfrac{Distance }{Time}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{(\sqrt3-1)h}{10\sqrt3}[/tex]

Now, we can say that more distance to be traveled to reach the base of tower is BD i.e. '[tex]\bold{\dfrac{h}{\sqrt3}}[/tex]'

So, more time required = Distance left divided by Speed

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{\dfrac{h}{\sqrt3}}{\dfrac{(\sqrt3-1)h}{10\sqrt3}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{h\times 10\sqrt3}{\sqrt3(\sqrt3-1)h}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{10 (\sqrt3+1)}{(\sqrt3-1)(\sqrt3+1)} (\text{Rationalizing the denominator})\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{10 (\sqrt3+1)}{3-1}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{10 (\sqrt3+1)}{2}\\\Rightarrow 5(\sqrt3+1)}[/tex]

So, The correct answer is option a.

Let the given function be;

f(x,y) = x²+y²+2xy

From above function, we can locate relative minima, maxima and the saddle point

f(x,y) = x²+y²+2xy = (x+y)²

df/dx = 2x+2y = 0 ---- (1)

df/dy =2y+2x = 0 ---- (2)

Answers

Answer:

52

Step-by-step explanation:

a(n)=-5+(n-1)3

a(20)=-5+(20-1)3

a(20)=52

The 20th term of the arithmetic sequence is 52.

What is Arithmetic sequence?

An arithmetic sequence is a list of numbers with a definite pattern. If you take any number in the sequence then subtract it by the previous one, and the result is always the same or constant then it is an arithmetic sequence.

For example,

In an arithmetic sequence, the difference between consecutive terms is always the same. For example, the sequence 3, 5, 7, 9 ... is arithmetic because the difference between consecutive terms is always two.

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is given by an = a + (n – 1)d.

Given:

a(n)=-5+(n-1)3

First term,

a(1)= -5 + 0

a(1)= -5

second, a(2)= -5 + 1*3

a(2)= -2

Third, a(3)= -5+6

a(3)= 1

d= 3

So, the 20th term

a(20)= -5+ (20-1)3

a(20)= -5 + 57

a(20)= 52

Hence, the 20th term is 52.

Six identical coins are tossed. How many possible arrangements of the coins include three heads and three tails?​

Answers

Answer:

The possible arrangement= 18 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Six identical coin are tossed.

Coin has only a tail and a head.

In how many possible ways can the arrangement be 3 head and 3 tail.

The possible arrangement= (3! * 3!)/2

The reason for dividing by two because coin has two face.

The possible arrangement= (3! * 3!)/2

The possible arrangement=( 6*6)/2

The possible arrangement= 36/2

The possible arrangement= 18 ways

Change -2Y - X=-2 to the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line.

Answers

Answer:

y = -(1/2)x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

-2Y - X = -2

Add x to both sides:

-2Y = X - 2

Divide both sides by -2:

Y = -(1/2)x+1

You could also use the shortcuts:

For Ay+Bx=C, the slope is -B/A and the y-intercept is C/A.

Slope = -B/A = -(-1)/(-2) = 1/-2 = -(1/2)

Y-intercept = C/A = (-2)/(-2) = 1

y = mx + b ---> y = -(1/2)x + 1

Answer:

y = -1/2x +1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

-2y -x = -2

Solve for y

Add x to each side

-2y = x-2

Divide by -2

-2y/2- = x/-2 -2/-2

y = -1/2x +1

The probability density of a random variable X is given in the figure below.

From this density, the probability that X is between 0.68 and 1.44 is:

Find the probability that X is between 0.68 and 1.44.

Answers

Answer:

0.38

Step-by-step explanation:

The area under the probability density curve is equal to 1.

The width of the rectangle is 2, so the height of the rectangle must be ½.

The probability that X is between 0.68 and 1.44 is therefore:

P = ½ (1.44 − 0.68)

P = 0.38

Using the uniform distribution, it is found that there is a 0.38 = 38% probability that X is between 0.68 and 1.44.

-----------------------

Uniform probability distribution:

Has two bounds, a and b.   The probability of finding a value between c and d is:

[tex]P(c \leq X \leq d) = \frac{d - c}{b - a}[/tex]

In this problem:

The bounds are 0 and 2, thus [tex]a = 0, b = 2[/tex].

The probability that X is between 0.68 and 1.44 is:

[tex]P(0.68 \leq X \leq 1.44) = \frac{1.44 - 0.68}{2 - 0} = 0.38[/tex]

0.38 = 38% probability that X is between 0.68 and 1.44.

A recipe for 1 batch of muffins used 2/3 of blueberries. Amir made 2 1/2 batches of muffins. How many cups of blueberries did he use? A. 1 4/6 B. 1 5/6 C. 2 2/6 D. 3 1/6. Please show your work.

Answers

Answer:

A. 1 4/6 cups of blueberries

Step-by-step explanation:

1 -- 2/3                      

Proportion, Batches to Blueberries

1*(2 1/2) -- (2/3)( 2 1/2)              

Because we are now multiplying the 1 batch to 2 1/2 batches. So to keep the proportion balanced/equal we are using the same operation on the right side of the proportion

2 1/2 -- (2/3)( 5/2 )      

2 1/2 -- 5/3

2 1/2 -- 1 2/3

Simplify

On the right side shows the blueberries for 2 1/2 batches. 1 2/3 = 1 4/6

The total cost of a sweater and a jacket was $71.55 If the price of the sweater was $3.19 less than the jacket, what was the price of the sweater? Express your answer as a simplified fraction or a decimal rounded to two places.

Answers

Answer: $34.18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of the Jacket = $x and

The cost of the sweater. = $y

Now total price. = $71.55.

So, $x + $y. = $71.55 -- 1

From the second statements, the price of the sweater was $3.19 less than the price of the jacket. Transforming that into equation

y = ( x - $3.19 )

Now substitute for y in the equation (1) above.

x + ( x - 3.19 ) = 71.55

Now solve the equation

x + x - 3.19 = 71.55

2x - 3.19. = 71.55

2x = 71.55 + 3.19

2x. = 74.74

x = 74.74/2

= $37.37. cost of the jacket

Now to determine the cost of the sweater,

$71.55 - $37.37 = $34.18

The cost of the sweater = $34.18.

How much would a computer system cost if you pay $200 down and made 12 monthly payments of only $98.95?

Answers

Answer:

$1387.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost for the computer will be sum of down payments and monthly installments.

____________________________________

Given

down payment = $200

monthly installment value = $98.85

no. of installments = 12

total value of monthly installments = 12*98.95 = $1187.4

Total cost of computer system = $200+  $1187.4 = $1387.4

Which of the following functions best describes this graph ?

Answers

Answer:

answer D

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets have a look to the graph and to the  each of given functions.

As we can see in graph it intersects X in points (-3;0) and (-6;0) that means the function has the roots x1=-3 and x2=-6

Function A  has the roots x1=+3 and x2=+6 => doesn' t fit

Function B has only 1 root x=2 , so can be factorized y=(x-2)^2 => doesn' t fit

Function C has 2 roots  x1=4  and x2=-5 => doesn' t fit

Function D can be factotized as y=(x+6)*(x+3) so has 2 roots x1=-6 x2=-3 => exactly what we need!!!

We can also notice that the coefficient near x²  is equal to 1  and is positive.

That means the legs of the graph directed up,- this is exactly like in our graph. It gives us extra argument why we choose D.

PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLY!!!!!There is Beauty in the Pain: She rarely makes eye contact. Instead she looks down at the ground because the ground is safer. Unlike people, the ground expects nothing in return. She doesn't have to be ashamed of her past. The ground just excepts her for who she is in this moment. As she sits in the make-shift bar next to me ; she stares down at her drink, and then the ground, then her drink again. "Most people don't get me, " she says, " They ask me questions like, 'What's your problem?' and 'Are you depressed?' Even so, I never respond because I don't feel like explaining myself. I don't think they really care anyway." Just then, a teenage boy sits down on the opposite side of the make-shift bar, across from her. He's drunk, and says, " Your pretty. Mind "Tell me about it," she says, and walks away. "Would you prefer that I leave too?" I ask. "No," she says without glancing upward, "Though I could use some fresh air. You don't have to come, but you can if you want to." I follow her outside and we sit by the pool in the backyard. "It's really cold tonight," I said. "Tell me about it," she says maintaining her usual downward gaze. The warm vapor from her breath cuts through the cold air ad bounces off the ground in front of her. "So why are out here with me? I mean wouldn't you rather be inside in the warmth, talking to normal teens, about normal teenager things, like whether or not your going to the next dance?" "I'm out here because I want to be. I'm not normal, and look, I can see my breath, and were in Texas. That's not normal either. Oh, and your wearing jnco's, and so am I- which may have been normal in 1985, but not anymore." "Can I tell you a story?" "I'm listening." As she speaks, her emotional gaze shifts from the ground, to my eyes, to the moonlit sky, and back to my eyes again. This continues for the duration of her story and every time her eyes meet mine she holds them there a few seconds longer than she did before. I don't interject once. I listen to every word and I accumulate the raw emotion present in her voice and the depth of her eyes. When she finishes, she simply says, "Well, now you think I'm a freak, don't you?" And I k*** her. We k*** each other, eyes closed, during the loudness of the party. Then we stop. "Why me?" she asks.
