A bus company has contracted with a local high school to carry 450 students on a field trip. The company has 18 large buses which can carry up to 30 students and 19 small buses which can carry up to 15 students. There are only 20 drivers available on the day of the field trip.
The total cost of operating one large bus is $225 a day, and the total cost of operating one small bus is $100 per day.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the big buses and y represent small buses. The large buses can carry 30 students and the small buses can carry 15 students. The total number of students are 450, this can be represented by the inequality:

30x + 15y ≤ 450

They are only 20 drivers, therefore only 20 buses can be used. It is represented by:

x + y ≤ 20

They  are only 19 small buses and 18 large buses:

x ≤ 18

y ≤ 19

After plotting the graph, the minimum solution to the graph are at:

A (15,0), B(18,0), C(10, 10), D(18, 2).

The cost function is given as:

The total cost of operating one large bus is $225 a day, and the total cost of operating one small bus is $100 per day.

F(x, y) = 225x + 100y

At point A:

F(x, y) = 225(15) + 100(0) = $3375

At point B:

F(x, y) = 225(18) + 100(0) = $4050

At point C:

F(x, y) = 225(10) + 100(10) = $3250

At point D:

F(x, y) = 225(18) + 100(2) = $4250

The minimum cost is at point C(10, 10) which is $3250

Starting from an airport, an airplane flies 210 miles southeast and then 210 miles south. How far, in miles, from the airport is the plane? (Round your answer to the nearest mile.)

Answers

Answer:

The plane is 388 miles far from the airport.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that, the angle between southeast and south directions is [tex]135^\circ[/tex].

The plane travels as per the triangle as shown in the attached image.

A is the location of airport.

First it travels for 210 miles southeast from A to B and then 210 miles south from B to C.

[tex]\angle ABC = 135^\circ[/tex]

To find:

Side AC = ?

Solution:

As we can see, the [tex]\triangle ABC[/tex] is an isosceles triangle with sides AB = BC = 210 miles.

So, we can say that the angles opposite to the equal angles in a triangle are also equal. [tex]\angle A = \angle C[/tex]

And sum of all three angles of a triangle is equal to [tex]180^\circ[/tex].

[tex]\angle A+\angle B+\angle C = 180^\circ\\\Rightarrow \angle A+135^\circ+\angle A = 180^\circ\\\Rightarrow \angle A = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 45^\circ\\\Rightarrow \angle A =22.5^\circ[/tex]

Now, we can use Sine Rule:

[tex]\dfrac{a}{sinA} = \dfrac{b}{sinB}[/tex]

a, b are the sides opposite to the angles [tex]\angle A and \angle B[/tex] respectively.

[tex]\dfrac{210}{sin22.5^\circ} = \dfrac{b}{sin135^\circ}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{210}{sin22.5^\circ} = \dfrac{b}{cos45^\circ}\\\Rightarrow b = 210\times \dfrac{1}{\sqrt2 \times 0.3826}\\\Rightarrow b = 210\times \dfrac{1}{0.54}\\\Rightarrow b \approx 388\ miles[/tex]

So, the answer is:

The plane is 388 miles far from the airport.

Given: FGKL is a trapezoid, m∠F=90°, m∠K=120°, FK=LK=a Find: The length of midsegment.

Answers

Answer:

  (3/4)a

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle at K is 120°, so the angle at L is its supplement: 60°. That makes triangle FKL an equilateral triangle with a base of FL = a. The vertex at K is centered over the base, so is a/2 from G.

The midsegement length is the average of GK and FL, so is ...

  midsegment = (GK +FL)/2 = (a/2 +a)/2

  midsegment = (3/4)a

Use the given information to find the ​p-value. ​Also, use a 0.05 significance level and state the conclusion about the null hypothesis​ (reject the null hypothesis or fail to reject the null​ hypothesis). With Upper H1​: p≠​0.377, the test statistic is z=3.06.

a. 0.0022; fail to reject the null hypothesis
b. 0.0011; reject the null hypothesis
c. 0.0022; reject the null hypothesis
d. 0.0011; fail to reject the null hypothesis

Answers

Answer:

Option c: 0.0022; reject the null hypothesis

Step-by-step explanation:

Using a p value calculator, with a z score of 3.06 at 0.05 level of significance for a two tailed test, the p-value is 0.002213. This value is lower than 0.05 thus the result is significant we will reject the null hypothesis.

To calculate the p value by hand, we do this

The test statistic is 3.06. Since the test possesses a not equal to alternative, we look up the test statistic on the z table find the corresponding probability. Thus we have 3.06 - on the z table - 0.99889

Then we subtract from 1 and double it

1-0.99889 = 0.00111 x 2 = 0.0022.

Given ABCD is a parralelogram choose and label approproate coordinates for A, B, C, and D, and prove that the opposite sides of ABCD are congruent. point A is (0,0) point B is (10,0) point C is (12,7) and point D is (3,7)

Answers

Answer:

proved: see explanation below

Step-by-step explanation:

The parallelogram ABCD  has cordinates point A is (0,0) point B is (10,0) point C is (12,7) and point D is (3,7).

For the opposite sides of ABCD to be congruent, the slope of the opposite sides would be equal

If AB // CD, BC // AD, it’s a parallelogram.

If slope of AB = CD, BC = AD then it’s a parallelogram.

slope = Δy/Δx

slope AB = (0-0)/(10-0) = 0

slope BC =  (7-0)/(12-10) = 7/2

slope CD =  (7-7)/(12-3) = 0

slope DA =  (0-7)/(0-3) = 7/3

slope DA is supposed to be equal to slope BC

It means the coordinate of D is (2,7)

slope DA becomes=  (0-7)/(0-2) = 7/2

Therefore it would be proved that the opposite sides of ABCD are congruent as two pair of slopes are equal

What is the greatest prime you must consider to test whether 7066 is prime?

The square root of 7066 is 84.0595....

Therefore the largest number we must test is 84, seeing as now we have proven we do not need to test any numbers greater than 84.0595...

That means, we only need to test prime numbers smaller than 84 to see if they go into 7066.

84 isn't prime. But 83 is prime.

Therefore, the greatest prime that needs to be considered for divisibility is 83.

Answers

Answer:

it is a two tailed test

The p - value for z=1.92  is 0.9726

Using a significance level of α=0.10, We fail to reject H0. The calculated z value lies out side the Zα value.

Step-by-step explanation:

For p≠0.767

Taking  null hypothesis as p≠0.767 and alternate hypothesis as p =0.767

H0 :p≠0.767  Ha :p≠0.767  it is a two tailed test

The p - value for z=1.92  is 0.9726 from the table.

Using a significance level of α=0.10

z value for 0.10 for two tailed test is ± 1.645

Z >zα

3. The area of a rectangular deck, in square meters, is given by the polynomial 40p2 + 24p.
The deck is 8p meters wide.
a) Find the polynomial that represents the length of the deck.
b) Find the polynomial that represents the perimeter of the deck.

Answers

Answer:

Length = 5p + 3

Perimeter = 26p + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Area = 40p² + 24p

Width = 8p

Solving for the length of deck

Given that the deck is rectangular in shape.

The area will be calculated as thus;

Area = Length * Width

Substitute 40p² + 24p and 8p for Area and Width respectively

The formula becomes

40p² + 24p = Length * 8p

Factorize both sides

p(40p + 24) = Length * 8 * p

Divide both sides by P

40p + 24 = Length * 8

Factorize both sides, again

8(5p + 3) = Length * 8

Multiply both sides by ⅛

⅛ * 8(5p + 3) = Length * 8 * ⅛

5p + 3 = Length

Length = 5p + 3

Solving for the perimeter of the deck

The perimeter of the deck is calculated as thus

Perimeter = 2(Length + Width)

Substitute 5p + 3 and 8p for Length and Width, respectively.

Perimeter = 2(5p + 3 + 8p)

Perimeter = 2(5p + 8p + 3)

Perimeter = 2(13p + 3)

Perimeter = 2 * 13p + 2 * 3

Answer:

a) h(x; 7, 5, 12) = (⁵Cₓ)( ⁷C₇₋ₓ) / (¹²C₇)

b) 2.92

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Here

Number of interviewees = N = 12

Number of job openings = M = 5

Interviews schedules for the first day =  n = 7

N − M = 12 - 5 = 7

Using hypergeometric distribution:

Let X be the no. top four candidates interviewed on first day.

The probability mass function of X:

P(X = x) = [tex](^{M} C_{x})[/tex]   [tex](^{N-M} C_{n-x})[/tex] /  [tex](^{N} C_{n})[/tex]

It can be written as:

[tex]The sum of two numbers is57 and the difference is3 . What are the numbers?[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

The numbers are 27 and 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The two numbers are x and y

x+y = 57

x-y = 3

Add the two equations together to eliminate y

x+y = 57

x-y = 3

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

2x = 60

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 60/2

x = 30

x+y = 57

30 + y = 57

y = 57-30

y = 27

The numbers are 27 and 30

The sum of two numbers is 57, and the difference is 3.

Give each number a variable (as you do not know what they are): x , y

Set the equations:

"The sum of two numbers is 57": x + y = 57

"The(re) difference is 3": x - y = 3

Isolate one of the variables in the second equation. Add y to both sides:

x - y (+y) = 3 + y

x = 3 + y

Plug in "3 + y" for x in the first equation:

3 + y + y = 57

Simplify. First, combine like terms:

3 + (y + y) = 57

3 + 2y = 57

Isolate the variable, y. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS*.

*PEMDAS is the order of operation.

PEMDAS =

Parenthesis

Exponents (& Roots)

Multiplication

Subtraction

First, subtract 3 from both sides:

2y + 3 = 57

2y + 3 (-3) = 57 (-3)

2y = 57 - 3

2y = 54

Next, divide 2 from both sides:

(2y)/2 = (54)/2

y = 54/2

y = 27

Plug in 27 for y in one of the equations:

x = 3 + y

x = 3 + (27)

x = 3 + 27

x = 30

x = 30 , y = 27 is your answer.

~

Check:

"The sum of two numbers is 57": x + y = 57

30 + 27 = 57

57 = 57 (True)

"The(re) difference is 3": x - y = 3

30 - 27 = 3

3 = 3 (True)

17 women and 3 men attend a family reunion. What is the percentage of men with respect to the total number of parents?
1. 3%
2. 15%
3. 16%
4. 17%

Answers

Answer:

Not enough information. (15% Men at family reunion)

Step-by-step explanation:

The question ask what percentage of men with respect to the total number of parents, who attended the family reunion; however, there is no information given on which subset of these people are parents. Therefore we cannot determine the percentage of men with respect to the total number of parents.

If we assume that all attendees of the family reunion are parents, the we can simply write:

3/20 == .15 == 15%

So there are 15% men at the family reunion. Likewise for the women we can say:

17/20 == .85 == 85%

So there are 85% women at the family reunion.

Cheers.

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{15\ \%}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Parents = 17+3 = 20

Men among Parents = 3

%age of men:

=> [tex]\frac{3}{20} * 100[/tex]%

=> 3 * 5 %

=> 15 %

Marcia is a bag that contains four green marbles, eight yellow marbles, and 20 red marbles. If she chooses one marble from the bag, what is the probability that the marble is not red?

Answers

Answer:

3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The bag contains 4 green marbles, 8 yellow marbles and 20 red marbles.

The total number of marbles is 32.

She chooses one from the bag.

The probability of the marble not being red is:

P(not red) = 1 - P(red)

P(not red) = 1 - (20 / 32) = 1 - 5/8

P(not red) = 3/8

The probability of it not being red is 3/8.

A company studied the number of lost-time accidents occurring at its Brownsville, Texas, plant. Historical records show that 8% of the employees suffered lost-time accidents last year. Management believes that a special safety program will reduce such accidents to 4% during the current year. In addition, it estimates that 15% of employees who had lost-time accidents last year will experience a lost-time accident during the current year.
a. What percentage of the employees will experience lost-time accidents in both years?
b. What percentage of the employees will suffer at least one lost-time accident over the two-year period?

Answers

Answer:

a) percentage of the employees that will experience lost-time accidents in both years = 1.2%

b) percentage of the employees that will suffer at least one lost-time accident over the two-year period = 10.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

given

percentage of lost time accident last year

P(L) = 8% = 0.08 of the employees

percentage of lost time accident current year

P(C) = 4% = 0.04 of the employees

P(C/L) = 15% = 0.15

using the probability

P(L ∩ C) = P(C/L) × P(L)

= 0.08 × 0.15 = 0.012 = 1.2%

percentage of the employees will experience lost-time accidents in both years = 1.2%

b) Using the probability of the event

P(L ∪ C) = P(L) + P(C) - P(L ∩ C)

= 0.08 + 0.04 -0.012 = 0.108 = 10.8%

percentage of the employees will suffer at least one lost-time accident over the two-year period = 10.8%
