A young Greek by the name of Zeno is riding his horse to his friends house which is two miles away. He travels half the distance in one hour. But his horse gets tired, and only travels half the remaining distance the second hour, and, again, only half the remaining distance in the third hour. How many miles did Zeno travel in those three hours?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1.75 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Zeno's friend's house is two miles away. He travels half the distance in one hour.

0.5 × 2 = 1

The second hour, his horse travels half the remaining distance.

0.5 × 1 = 0.5

The third hour, his horse travels half the remaining distance.

0.5 × 0.5 = 0.25

1 + 0.5 + 0.25 = 1.75

Zeno travels 1.75 miles in three hours.

Hope this helps.

The automatic opening device of a military cargo parachute has been designed to open when the parachute is 155 m above the ground. Suppose opening altitude actually has a normal distribution with mean value 155 and standard deviation 30 m. Equipment damage will occur if the parachute opens at an altitude of less than 100 m. What is the probability that there is equipment damage to the payload of at least one of five independently dropped parachutes

Answers

Answer:

the probability that one parachute of the  five parachute is damaged is 0.156

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

Let consider X to be the altitude above the  ground that a parachute opens

Then; we can posit that the probability that the parachute is damaged is:

P(X ≤ 100 )

Given that the population mean μ = 155

the standard deviation σ = 30

Then;

[tex]P(X \leq 100 ) = ( \dfrac{X- \mu}{\sigma} \leq \dfrac{100- \mu}{\sigma})[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 100 ) = ( \dfrac{X- 155}{30} \leq \dfrac{100- 155}{30})[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 100 ) = (Z \leq \dfrac{- 55}{30})[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 100 ) = (Z \leq -1.8333)[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 100 ) = \Phi( -1.8333)[/tex]

From standard normal tables

[tex]P(X \leq 100 ) = 0.0334[/tex]

Hence; the probability of the given parachute damaged is 0.0334

Let consider Q to be the dropped parachute

Given that the number of parachute be n= 5

The probability that the parachute opens in each trail be  p = 0.0334

Now; the random variable Q follows the binomial distribution with parameters n= 5 and p = 0.0334

The probability mass function is:

Q [tex]\sim[/tex] B(5, 0.0334)

Similarly; the event that one parachute is damaged is :

Q ≥ 1

P( Q ≥ 1 ) = 1 - P( Q < 1 )

P( Q ≥ 1 ) = 1 - P( Y = 0 )

P( Q ≥ 1 ) = 1 - b(0;5; 0.0334 )

P( Q ≥ 1 ) = [tex]1 -(^5_0)* (0.0334)^0*(1-0.0334)^5[/tex]

P( Q ≥ 1 ) = [tex]1 -( \dfrac{5!}{(5-0)!}) * (0.0334)^0*(1-0.0334)^5[/tex]

P( Q ≥ 1 ) = 1 -  0.8437891838

P( Q ≥ 1 ) = 0.1562108162

P( Q ≥ 1 ) [tex]\approx[/tex] 0.156

Therefore; the probability that one parachute of the  five parachute is damaged is 0.156

An angle measures 125.6° less than the measure of its supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

Answers

Answer:

The measure of each angle:

152.8°   and     27.2°

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles sum 180°

then:

a + b = 180°

a - b = 125.6°

then:

a = 180 - b

a = 125.6 + b

180 - b = 125.6 + b

180 - 125.6 = b + b

54.4 = 2b

b = 54.4/2

b = 27.2°

a = 180 - b

a = 180 - 27.2

a = 152.8°

Check:

152.8 + 27.2 = 180°

Answers:

152.8° & 27.2°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y be the measures of each angle.

x + y = 180°

x - y = 125.6°

180 - 125.6 = 54.4

Now we divide 54.4 evenly to get y.

y = 27.2°

To get x, we substitute y into the equation.

x = 27.2 + 125.6

x = 152.8°

To check, we plug these in to see if they equal 180°.

27.2 + 152.8 = 180° ✅

Find the directional derivative of the function at the given point in the direction of the vector v. f(x, y, z) = xey + yez + zex, (0, 0, 0), v = 4, 3, −1

Answers

Answer: 6 / √26

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that f(x, y, z) = xe^y + ye^z + ze^x

so first we compute the gradient vector at (0, 0, 0)

Δf ( x, y, z ) = [ e^y + ze^x,  xe^y + e^z,  ye^z + e^x ]

Δf ( 0, 0, 0 ) = [ e⁰ + 0(e)⁰, 0(e)⁰ + e⁰, 0(e)⁰ + e⁰ ] = [ 1+0 , 0+1, 0+1 ] = [ 1, 1, 1 ]

Now we were also given that  V = < 4, 3, -1 >

so ║v║ = √ ( 4² + 3² + (-1)² )

║v║ = √ ( 16 + 9 + 1 )

║v║ = √ 26

It must be noted that "v"  is not a unit vector but since ║v║ = √ 26, the unit vector in the direction of "V" is ⊆ = ( V / ║v║)

so

⊆ =  ( V / ║v║) = [ 4/√26, 3/√26, -1/√26 ]

therefore by equation   D⊆f ( x, y, z ) = Δf ( x, y, z ) × ⊆

D⊆f ( x, y, z ) = Δf ( 0, 0, 0 ) × ⊆ = [ 1, 1, 1 ] × [ 4/√26, 3/√26, -1/√26 ]

= ( 1×4 + 1×3 -1×1 ) / √26

= (4 + 3 - 1) / √26

= 6 / √26

17. An electrical firm manufactures light bulbs that have a length of life that is approximately normally distributed with a standard deviation of 40 hours. How large a sample is need it if we wish to be 98% confident that our sample mean will be within 4 hours of the true mean

Answers

Answer:

A sample of at least 541 is needed if we wish to be 98% confident that our sample mean will be within 4 hours of the true mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an electrical firm manufactures light bulbs that have a length of life that is approximately normally distributed with a standard deviation of 40 hours.

We have to find a sample such that we are 98% confident that our sample mean will be within 4 hours of the true mean.

As we know that the Margin of error formula is given by;

The margin of error =  [tex]Z_(_\frac{\alpha}{2}_) \times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

where, [tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation = 40 hours

            n = sample size

            [tex]\alpha[/tex] = level of significance = 1 - 0.98 = 0.02 or 2%

Now, the critical value of z at ([tex]\frac{0.02}{2}[/tex] = 1%) level of significance n the z table is given as 2.3263.

So, the margin of error =  [tex]Z_(_\frac{\alpha}{2}_) \times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

                 [tex]4=2.3263 \times \frac{40}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

                 [tex]\sqrt{n}= \frac{40 \times 2.3263}{ 4}[/tex]

                  [tex]\sqrt{n}=23.26[/tex]

                   n = [tex]23.26^{2}[/tex] = 541.03 ≈ 541

Hence, a sample of at least 541 is needed if we wish to be 98% confident that our sample mean will be within 4 hours of the true mean.

i) R sell 1.20 $ per pound.

ii) S sell 4 pounds for 5$

i.e S sell 1 pound for 5/4 = 1.25$

iii) T sell 3 pound for 3.48$

i.e T sell 1 pound for 3.48/3 = 1.16$

Analysing the above data I get,

Store T sells apples at the lowest rate

Find the directional derivative of f at the given point in the direction indicated by the angle θ. f(x, y) = y cos(xy), (0, 1), θ = π/3

Answers

Answer:

√3/2

Explanation:

The directional derivative at the given point is gotten using the formula;

∇f(x,y)•u where u is the unit vector in that direction.

∇f(x,y) = f/x i + f/y j

Given the function f(x, y) = y cos(xy),

f/x = -y²sin(xy) and

f/y = -xysin(xy)+cos(xy)

∇f(x,y) = -y²sin(xy) i + (cos(xy)-xysin(xy)) j

∇f(x,y) at (0,1) will give;

∇f(0,1) = -0sin0 i + cos0j

∇f(0,1) = 0i+j

The unit vector in the direction of angle θ is given as u = cosθ i + sinθ j

u = cos(π/3)i+ sin(π/3)j

u = 1/2 i + √3/2 j

Taking the dot product of both vectors;

∇f(x,y)•u = (0i+j)•(1/2 i + √3/2 j)

Note that i.i = j.j = 1 and i.j = 0

∇f(x,y)•u = 0 + √3/2

∇f(x,y)•u = √3/2

The directional derivative of [tex]f[/tex] at the given point in the direction indicated is [tex]\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex].

How to calculate the directional derivative of a multivariate function

let x = the amoun of raw sugar in tons a procesing plant is a sugar refinery process in one day . suppose x can be model as exponetial distribution with mean of 4 ton per day . The amount of raw sugar (x) has

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

A sugar refinery has three processing plants, all receiving raw sugar in bulk. The amount of raw sugar (in tons) that one plant can process in one day can be modelled using an exponential distribution with mean of 4 tons for each of three plants. If each plant operates independently,a.Find the probability that any given plant processes more than 5 tons of raw sugar on a given day.b.Find the probability that exactly two of the three plants process more than 5 tons of raw sugar on a given day.c.How much raw sugar should be stocked for the plant each day so that the chance of running out of the raw sugar is only 0.05?

Answer: The mean (μ) of the plants is 4 tons. The probability density function of an exponential distribution is given by:

[tex]f(x)=\lambda e^{-\lambda x}\\But\ \lambda= 1/\mu=1/4 = 0.25\\Therefore:\\f(x)=0.25e^{-0.25x}\\[/tex]

a) P(x > 5) = [tex]\int\limits^\infty_5 {f(x)} \, dx =\int\limits^\infty_5 {0.25e^{-0.25x}} \, dx =-e^{-0.25x}|^\infty_5=e^{-1.25}=0.2865[/tex]

b) Probability that exactly two of the three plants process more than 5 tons of raw sugar on a given day can be solved when considered as a binomial.

That is P(2 of the three plant use more than five tons) = C(3,2) × [P(x > 5)]² × (1-P(x > 5)) = 3(0.2865²)(1-0.2865) = 0.1757

c) Let b be the amount of raw sugar should be stocked for the plant each day.

P(x > a) = [tex]\int\limits^\infty_a {f(x)} \, dx =\int\limits^\infty_a {0.25e^{-0.25x}} \, dx =-e^{-0.25x}|^\infty_a=e^{-0.25a}[/tex]

But P(x > a) = 0.05

Therefore:

[tex]e^{-0.25a}=0.05\\ln[e^{-0.25a}]=ln(0.05)\\-0.25a=-2.9957\\a=11.98[/tex]

A pizza is cut into six unequal slices (each cut starts at the center). The largest slice measures $90$ degrees If Larry eats the slices in order from the largest to the smallest, then the number of degrees spanned by a slice decreases at a constant rate. (So the second slice is smaller than the first by a certain number of degrees, then the third slice is smaller than the second slice by that same number of degrees, and so on.) What is the degree measure of the fifth slice Larry eats?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 5th angle = [tex]\bold{42^\circ}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that pizza is divided into six unequal slices.

Largest slice has an angle of [tex]90^\circ[/tex].

He eats the pizza from largest to smallest.

Let the difference in angles in each slice = [tex]d^\circ[/tex]

1st angle = [tex]90^\circ[/tex]

2nd angle = 90-d

3rd angle = 90-d-d = 90 - 2d

4th angle = 90-2d-d = 90 - 3d

5th angle = 90-3d-d = 90 - 4d

6th angle = 90-4d -d = 90 - 5d

We know that the sum of all the angles will be equal to [tex]360^\circ[/tex] (The sum of all the angles subtended at the center).

i.e.

[tex]90+90-d+90-2d+90-3d+90-4d+90-5d=360\\\Rightarrow 540 - 15d = 360\\\Rightarrow 15d = 540 -360\\\Rightarrow 15d = 180\\\Rightarrow d = 12^\circ[/tex]

So, the angles will be:

1st angle = [tex]90^\circ[/tex]

2nd angle = 90- 12 = 78

3rd angle = 78-12 = 66

4th angle = 66-12 = 54

5th angle = 54-12 = 42

6th angle = 42 -12 = 30

So, the answer is 5th angle = [tex]\bold{42^\circ}[/tex]

To find the decay factor, b,
find the ratio of the
consecutive y-
values between the
points (0,16) and (1.12)?

Answers

Answer:

b = 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

In an exponential equation:

f(x) = a (b)ˣ

Evaluated at x+1:

f(x+1) = a (b)ˣ⁺¹

The ratio between them is:

f(x+1) / f(x)

= (a (b)ˣ⁺¹) / (a (b)ˣ)

= b

So the decay factor b can be found by dividing the consecutive y values.

b = 16 / 12

b = 4/3

The objective is to be able to determine if the evidence suggest that a lower proportion of subjects in group 1 experienced drowsiness as a side effect than subjects in group 2 at the α=0.05 level of significance.

In order to do that; we have to state the null and alternative hypothesis; carry out our test statistics and make conclusion based on it.

So; the null and the  alternative hypothesis can be computed as:

[tex]H_o :p_1 =p_2[/tex]

[tex]H_a= p_1<p_2[/tex]

The test statistics is computed as follows:

[tex]Z = \dfrac{p_1-p_2}{\sqrt{p_1 *\dfrac{1-p_1}{n_1} +p_2 *\dfrac{1-p_2}{n_2}} }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \dfrac{0.3031-0.3131}{\sqrt{0.3031 *\dfrac{1-0.3031}{452} +0.3131 *\dfrac{1-0.3131}{99}} }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \dfrac{-0.01}{\sqrt{0.3031 *\dfrac{0.6969}{452} +0.3131 *\dfrac{0.6869}{99}} }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \dfrac{-0.01}{\sqrt{0.3031 *0.0015418 +0.3131 *0.0069384} }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \dfrac{-0.01}{\sqrt{4.6731958*10^{-4}+0.00217241304} }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \dfrac{-0.01}{0.051378 }[/tex]

Z = - 0.1946

At the level of significance ∝ = 0.05

From the standard normal table;

the critical value for Z(0.05) = -1.645

Decision Rule: Reject the null hypothesis if Z-value is lesser than the critical value.

Conclusion: We do not reject the null hypothesis because the Z value is greater than the critical value. Therefore, we cannot conclude that a lower proportion of subjects in group 1 experienced drowsiness as a side effect than subjects in group 2

A survey found that 39% of all gamers play video games on their smartphones. Ten frequent gamers are randomly selected. The random variable represents the number of frequent games who play video games on their smartphones. What is the value of n

Answers

Answer:

61% i think

Step-by-step explanation:

if you have 39% and it 10 out of a 100 well you have a 39/100 and then n would be 61/100 so 61%

0.39  is the value of n for the video games on their smartphones. Thus option A is correct.

What is probability?

The mathematical discipline known as probability specializes in determining the possibility of an event occurring. Probability, which expresses the probability of a risk, is calculated by dividing the total possible combinations by the frequency of favorable events. Composite reliabilities vary from 0 to 1, with 1 representing certainty and 0 representing hesitation.

In a binomial distribution, p stands for the success probability. It refers to the likelihood that a certain number of experiments will result in favorable results. For all binomial attempts, the probability of winning stays constant.

This suggests that there will be a distribution of 39/100. The result after the calculation will be 0.39. Therefore, option A is the correct option.

A subcommittee is randomly selected from a committee of eight men and seven women. What is the probability that all three people on the subcommittee are men

Answers

Answer:

The probability that all three people on the subcommittee are men

= 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of members in the committee = 15

= 8 men + 7 women

The probability of selecting a man in the committee

= 8/15

= 53%

The probability of selecting three men from eight men

= 3/8

= 37.5%

The probability that all three people on the subcommittee are men

= probability of selecting a man multiplied by the probability of selecting three men from eight men

= 53% x 37.5%

= 19.875%

= 20% approx.

This is the same as:

The probability of selecting 3 men from the 15 member-committee

= 3/15

= 20%

You are selling your product at a three-day event. Each day, there is a 60% chance that you will make money. What is the probability that you will make money on the first two days and lose money on the third day

Answers

Answer:

The required probability = 0.144

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the probability of making money is 60%, then the probability of losing money will be 100-60% = 40%

Now the probability we want to calculate is the probability of making money in the first two days and losing money on the third day.

That would be;

P(making money) * P(making money) * P(losing money)

Kindly recollect;

P(making money) = 60% = 60/100 = 0.6

P(losing money) = 40% = 40/100 = 0.4

The probability we want to calculate is thus;

0.6 * 0.6 * 0.4 = 0.144

A tech company is curious about marketing their new drones for home security. Let the proportion of houses that have home security be p. If the tech company would like to know if the proportion of houses that have home security is different than 45%, what are the null and alternative hypotheses

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is described as the default hypothesis while the alternative hypothesis us always tested against this null ie the opposite of the null hypothesis.

In this case study, Let the proportion of houses that have home security be p

Thus, the null hypothesis is proportion of houses that have home security is 45% : p = 45%

The alternative hypothesis is proportion of houses that have home security is different than 45%: p =/ 45%

Which statement about the following equation is true?
2x2-9x+2-1​

Answers

Complete Question:

Which statement about the following equation is true?

[tex]2x^2-9x+2 = -1[/tex]

A) The discriminant is less than 0, so there are two real roots

B) The discriminant is less than 0, so there are two complex roots

C) The discriminant is greater than 0, so there are two real roots

D) The discriminant is greater than 0, so there are two complex roots

Answer:

C) The discriminant is greater than 0, so there are two real roots

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is [tex]2x^2-9x+2 = -1[/tex] which by simplification becomes

[tex]2x^2 - 9x + 3 = 0[/tex]

For a quadratic equation of the form [tex]ax^2 + bx + c = 0[/tex], the discriminant is given by the equation, [tex]D = b^2 - 4ac[/tex]

If the discriminant D is greater than 0, the roots are real and different

If the discriminant D is equal to 0, the roots are real and equal

If the discriminant D is less than 0, the roots are imaginary

For the quadratic equation under consideration, a = 2, b = -9, c = 3

Let us calculate the discriminant D

D = (-9)² - 4(2)(3)

D = 81 - 24

D = 57

Since the Discriminant D is greater than 0, the roots are real and different.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

C) The discriminant is greater than 0, so there are two real roots

Answers

Answer:

The class interval is $3

Step-by-step explanation:

The class interval is simply the difference between the lower or upper class boundary or limit  of a class and the lower or upper class boundary or limit of the next class.

In this case for the class

$4 up to $7 18 and

$7 up to $10 36

The lower class boundary of the first class is $4 and the lower class boundary of the second class is $7

Answers

Answer:

a=6, b=5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

By looking at the sides of the triangles it can easily be seen that some of the sides match up. Side b is similar to the side of 11 and same with side a and the side of 3. Since one side is 16 and the other side on the smaller triangle is 8, the bigger triangle is twice as large than the smaller one. So 3 x 2 = 6 and 11 / 2 = 5.5

(1,1,1) is not equal to (-10,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

a°b° + a^1b^1 + a^2b^2 < 5x (-2x^2 + 1)

Any algebra raised to the power of zero is equal to 1.

a°b° = 1 × 1 = 1

1 + ab + a^2b^2 < -10x^3 + 5x

The vectors:

(1,1,1) < (-10,5)

This verifies the Cauchy-Schwarz Inequality

Triangle Inequality states that for any triangle, the sum of the lengths of two sides must be greater than or equal to the length of the third side.

What is the range of the function F(x) graphed below?F(x)= -(x+2)^2+3

Answers

Answer:

range of the function F(x) is  (-infinity, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

I do not see the graph function F(x), so will assume that it is a graph of the function F(x) over the complete domain (-inf,inf).

As you can see from the attached graph, the function reaches a maximum at y=+3, and extends all the way to -infinity.

So the range of the function F(x) is  (-infinity, 3)
