and there are 25% more cats than dogs. If
there are 40 cats, how many dogs are there,
and how many animals are there total?

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  32 dogs; 72 animals

Step-by-step explanation:

If d is the number of dogs, then ...

  d + 0.25d = 40 . . . . . . 40 cats is 25% more than the number of dogs

  1.25d = 40

  d = 40/1.25 = 32

  40+d = 72 . . . . . . . . . total animals

There are 32 dogs and 72 animals total.

A sample of 50 potential customers was asked to use your new product and the product of the leading competitor. After one week, they were asked to indicate which product they preferred. In the sample, 30 potential customers said that they preferred your product. (a) Find the sample proportion. (5 points) (b) Find the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of potential customers who prefer your product. (10 points) (c) If you want the 95% maximum likely error to be 0.08 or less, what would you choose for a sample size

Answers

Answer:

a) The sample proportion is of 0.6.

b) The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of potential customers who prefer your product is (0.4642, 0.7358).

c) A sample size of 145 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Find the sample proportion.

30 out of 50. So

[tex]\pi = \frac{30}{50} = 0.6[/tex]

The sample proportion is of 0.6.

(b) Find the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of potential customers who prefer your product.

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

For this problem, we have that:

[tex]n = 50, \pi = 0.6[/tex]

95% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.6 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.6*0.4}{50}} = 0.4642[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.6 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.6*0.4}{50}} = 0.7358[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of potential customers who prefer your product is (0.4642, 0.7358).

(c) If you want the 95% maximum likely error to be 0.08 or less, what would you choose for a sample size

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

We need a sample size of n, and n is found when M = 0.08. So

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.08 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.6*0.4}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.08\sqrt{n} = 1.96*sqrt{0.6*0.4}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*sqrt{0.6*0.4}}{0.08}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*sqrt{0.6*0.4}}{0.08})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 144.1[/tex]

Rounding up

A sample size of 145 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°, so angle X is ...

Hello There!

The following angles are complementary angles

Complementary angles have a sum of 90

So to solve for the variable (x) we use this equation

90 = 35 + 4x + 7

step 1 combine like terms

35+7=42

now we have

90 = 4x + 42

step 2 subtract 42 from each side

90 - 42 = 48

42 - 42 cancels out

now we have

48 = 4x

step 3 divide each side by 4

4x/4 = x

48 / 4 = 12

we're left with x=12

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (8,-8)(8,−8) and is perpendicular to the line 4x-3y=184x−3y=18?

Answers

Answer:

The equation of the line is [tex]y = -\frac{3x}{4} - 2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line:

The equation of a line has the following format:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

In which m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Perpendicular lines:

When two lines are perpendicular, the multiplication of their slopes is -1.

Perpendicular to the line 4x-3y=18

First, we place this line into the format, to find the slope:

[tex]4x - 3y = 18[/tex]

[tex]3y = 4x - 18[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{4x}{3} - 6[/tex]

This line has slope 4/3. So, for the perpendicular line, the slope will be of m as such:

[tex]\frac{4m}{3} = -1[/tex]

[tex]4m = -3[/tex]

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

So the desired line will have an equation in the following format:

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

Passes through the point (8,-8)

We use this to find b. This point means that when [tex]x = 8, y = -8[/tex]. So

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

[tex]-8 = -\frac{3*8}{4} + b[/tex]

[tex]-8 = -6 + b[/tex]

[tex]b = -2[/tex]

So

[tex]y = -\frac{3x}{4} - 2[/tex]

Hi there!

Using the discriminant formula, we can determine if this equation is ever true:

b² - 4ac

Plug in the a, b, and c values from the equation:

(4)² - 4(1)(5)

16 - 20 = -4 < 0

Since the discriminant is less than 0, there are no zeros to the equation. Thus, the equation is never true.

The answer is -2+/- square root of -1.

function q has zeros of -3 and 8 and passes through the y-axis at the point (0,12). the rate of change of function q is -3/2 on the interval (?,?). answer for the ?’s

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

"function q has zeros of -3 and 8"

q(x) = a(x+3)(x-8)

"q passes through the y-axis at the point (0,12)"

a(0+3)(0-8) = 12

a = -½

q(x) = -½(x+3)(x-8) = -½x² + 2.5x + 12

q'(x) = -x+2.5

-x+2.5 = -1.5

x = 4

rate of change is -1.5 at the point (4,14).
