Step-by-step explanation:

           x      P(x)        x. P(x)     x²            x². P(x)

          6      0.10          0.6      36            3.6

         12     0.35          4.2       144           50.4

        18     0.25           4.5       324            81

        24     0.30          7.2        576         172.8

                  ∑x P (x)  16.5         ∑x² P (x) 307.8

The expected value of x E[X] gives the mean where X is the discrete random variable with the given probabilities.

Mean is given by  E(X)=  ∑x P (x) =  16.5

Similarly the variance is also calculated using the expected value of X and X².

Variance is given= E(X)²-  [E(X)]²= 307.8- (16.5)²=  307.8-272.25 = 35.55

When josh borrowed money, he originally agreed to repay the loan by making three equal payments of $1500, with a payment due now, another payment due two years from now, and the final payment due four years from now. Instead of the original payments, he plans to pay off the loan by making a single payment of 5010. If interest is 10%, compounded annually, when will he make the single payment?

Answers

Answer:

5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Principal Amount to be paid=$4500

Interest rate = 2%

Number if Times compounded= number of years

Number of years = x

Among total= $5010

A= p(1+r/n)^(nt)

But n= t =x

A= p(1+r/x)^(x²)

5010=4500(1+0.02/x)^(x²)

5010/4500 = (1+0.02/x)^(x²)

1.11333=( 1+0.02/x)^(x²)

Using trial and error method the number of years maximum to give approximately $5010 is 5 years

If the 2nd and 5th terms of a
G.P are 6 and 48 respectively,
find the sum of the first four
terms​

Answers

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of a GP is

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a[tex]r^{n-1}[/tex]

where a is the first term and r the common ratio

Given a₂ = 6 and a₅ = 48, then

ar = 6 → (1)

a[tex]r^{4}[/tex] = 48 → (2)

Divide (2) by (1)

[tex]\frac{ar^4}{ar}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{48}{6}[/tex] , that is

r³ = 8 ( take the cube root of both sides )

r = [tex]\sqrt[3]{8}[/tex] = 2

Substitute r = 2 into (1)

2a = 6 ( divide both sides by 2 )

a = 3

Thus

3, 6, 12, 24 ← are the first 4 terms

3 + 6 + 12 + 24 = 45 ← sum of first 4 terms

In △ABC, m∠A=27 °, c=14 , and m∠B=25 °. Find a to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

a = 8.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, since we have a triangle, automatically, we have 3 interior angles

Mathematically the sum of these angles = 180

A + B + C = 180

27 + 25 + C = 180

52 + C = 180

C = 180-52

C = 128

We use the sine rule to find a

The sine rule posits that the ratio of a side to the sine of the angle facing that side is equal for all the sides of a triangle

Thus, mathematically according to the sine rule;

c/Sin C = a/Sin A

14/sin 128 = a/sin 27

a = 14sin27/sin 128 = 8.0657

which to the nearest tenth is 8.1

A 24-centimeter by 119-centimeter piece of cardboard is used to make an open-top box by removing a square from each corner of the cardboard and folding up the flaps on each side. What size square should be cut from each corner to get a box with the maximum volume

Answers

Answer:

The size square removed from each corner = 32.15 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the box = Length * Breadth * Height

Let r be the size  removed from each corner

Note that at maximum volume, [tex]\frac{dV}{dr} = 0[/tex]

The original length of the cardboard is 119 cm, if you remove a  size of r (This typically will be the height of the box)  from the corner, since there are two corners corresponding to the length of the box, the length of the box will be:

Length, L = 119 - 2r

Similarly for the breadth, B = 24 - 2r

And the height as stated earlier, H = r

Volume, V = L*B*H

V = (119-2r)(24-2r)r

V = r(2856 - 238r - 48r + 4r²)

V = 4r³ - 286r² + 2856r

At maximum volume dV/dr = 0

dV/dr = 12r² - 572r + 2856

12r² - 572r + 2856 = 0

By solving the quadratic equation above for the value of r:

r = 5.67 or 42

r cannot be 42 because the  size removed from the corner of the cardboard cannot be more than the width of the cardboard.

Note that the area of a square is r²

Therefore, the size square removed from each corner = 5.67² = 32.15 cm²

We draw a random sample of size 25 from a normal population with variance 2.4. If the sample mean is 12.5, what is a 99% confidence interval for the population mean?

Answers

Answer:

11.2≤[tex]\mu[/tex]12.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval for the population mean is expressed by the formula;

CI = xbar ± Z(S/√n) where;

xbar is the sample mean = 12.5

Z is the z score at 99% confidence = 2.576

S is the standard deviation = √variance

S = √2.4 = 1.5492

n is the sample size = 25

Substituting the given values into the formula given above,

CI = 12.5 ± 2.576(1.5492/√25)

CI = 12.5 ± 2.576(0.30984)

CI = 12.5 ± 0.7981

CI = (12.5-0.7981, 12.5+0.7981)

CI = (11.2019, 12.7981)

Hence the 99% confidence interval for the population mean is 11.2≤[tex]\mu[/tex]12.8 (to 1 decimal place)

A 99% confidence interval for the population mean will be "11.2 [tex]\leq[/tex] 12.8".

Statistics

According to the question,

Sample mean, [tex]\bar x[/tex] = 12.5

Z score at 99%, Z = 2.576

Standard deviation, S = √Variance

                                    = √2.4

                                    = 1.5492

Sample size, n = 25

We know the formula,

Confidence interval, CI = [tex]\bar x \ \pm[/tex] Z ([tex]\frac{S}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex])

By substituting the given values, we get

                                        = 12.5 [tex]\pm[/tex] 2.576 ([tex]\frac{1.5492}{\sqrt{25} }[/tex])

                                        = 12.5 [tex]\pm[/tex] 2.576 (0.30984)

                                        = 12.5 [tex]\pm[/tex] 0.7981

Now,

                                   Cl = (12.5 - 0.7981, 12.5 + 0.7981)

                                        = (11.2019, 12.7981) or,

                                        = (11.2, 12.8)

Thus the above answer is appropriate.

Ont is twice the area of a square of side length 4 units.

Answers

Answer:

C. It is one-half the area of a square of side length 4 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Well if a square has side lengths of 4 units,

the area would be 16 because of l*w.

Now the formula for the area of a triangle is,

b*h/2

b = 4

h = 4

4*4=16

16 ÷ 2 = 8

So the area of a square is 16 units^2 whereas the area of a triangle with the same dimensions is 8 units^2,

meaning the area of a triangle is one-half the area of a square.

Does anyone know the answers to these?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The point estimate is the mean, 47 days.

b. The margin of error is the critical value times the standard error.

At 31 degrees of freedom and 98% confidence, t = 2.453.

The margin of error is therefore:

MoE = 2.453 × 10.2 / √32

MoE = 4.42

c.  The confidence interval is:

CI = 47 ± 4.42

CI = (42.58, 51.42)

d. We can conclude with 98% confidence that the true mean is between 42.58 days and 51.42 days.

e. We can reduce the margin of error by either increasing the sample size, or using a lower confidence level.

Answers

Answer:

The set of vectors A and C are linearly independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

A set of vector is linearly independent if and only if the linear combination of these vector can only be equalised to zero only if all coefficients are zeroes. Let is evaluate each set algraically:

[tex]p_{1}(t) = 1[/tex], [tex]p_{2}(t)= t^{2}[/tex] and [tex]p_{3}(t) = 3 + 3\cdot t[/tex]:

[tex]\alpha_{1}\cdot p_{1}(t) + \alpha_{2}\cdot p_{2}(t) + \alpha_{3}\cdot p_{3}(t) = 0[/tex]

[tex]\alpha_{1}\cdot 1 + \alpha_{2}\cdot t^{2} + \alpha_{3}\cdot (3 +3\cdot t) = 0[/tex]

[tex](\alpha_{1}+3\cdot \alpha_{3})\cdot 1 + \alpha_{2}\cdot t^{2} + \alpha_{3}\cdot t = 0[/tex]

The following system of linear equations is obtained:

[tex]\alpha_{1} + 3\cdot \alpha_{3} = 0[/tex]

[tex]\alpha_{2} = 0[/tex]

[tex]\alpha_{3} = 0[/tex]

Whose solution is [tex]\alpha_{1} = \alpha_{2} = \alpha_{3} = 0[/tex], which means that the set of vectors is linearly independent.

[tex]p_{1}(t) = t[/tex], [tex]p_{2}(t) = t^{2}[/tex] and [tex]p_{3}(t) = 2\cdot t + 3\cdot t^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\alpha_{1}\cdot p_{1}(t) + \alpha_{2}\cdot p_{2}(t) + \alpha_{3}\cdot p_{3}(t) = 0[/tex]

[tex]\alpha_{1}\cdot t + \alpha_{2}\cdot t^{2} + \alpha_{3}\cdot (2\cdot t + 3\cdot t^{2})=0[/tex]

[tex](\alpha_{1}+2\cdot \alpha_{3})\cdot t + (\alpha_{2}+3\cdot \alpha_{3})\cdot t^{2} = 0[/tex]

The following system of linear equations is obtained:

[tex]\alpha_{1}+2\cdot \alpha_{3} = 0[/tex]

[tex]\alpha_{2}+3\cdot \alpha_{3} = 0[/tex]

Since the number of variables is greater than the number of equations, let suppose that [tex]\alpha_{3} = k[/tex], where [tex]k\in\mathbb{R}[/tex]. Then, the following relationships are consequently found:

[tex]\alpha_{1} = -2\cdot \alpha_{3}[/tex]

[tex]\alpha_{1} = -2\cdot k[/tex]

[tex]\alpha_{2}= -2\cdot \alpha_{3}[/tex]

[tex]\alpha_{2} = -3\cdot k[/tex]

It is evident that [tex]\alpha_{1}[/tex] and [tex]\alpha_{2}[/tex] are multiples of [tex]\alpha_{3}[/tex], which means that the set of vector are linearly dependent.

[tex]p_{1}(t) = 1[/tex], [tex]p_{2}(t)=t^{2}[/tex] and [tex]p_{3}(t) = 3+3\cdot t +t^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\alpha_{1}\cdot p_{1}(t) + \alpha_{2}\cdot p_{2}(t) + \alpha_{3}\cdot p_{3}(t) = 0[/tex]

[tex]\alpha_{1}\cdot 1 + \alpha_{2}\cdot t^{2}+ \alpha_{3}\cdot (3+3\cdot t+t^{2}) = 0[/tex]

[tex](\alpha_{1}+3\cdot \alpha_{3})\cdot 1+(\alpha_{2}+\alpha_{3})\cdot t^{2}+3\cdot \alpha_{3}\cdot t = 0[/tex]

The following system of linear equations is obtained:

[tex]\alpha_{1}+3\cdot \alpha_{3} = 0[/tex]

[tex]\alpha_{2} + \alpha_{3} = 0[/tex]

[tex]3\cdot \alpha_{3} = 0[/tex]

Whose solution is [tex]\alpha_{1} = \alpha_{2} = \alpha_{3} = 0[/tex], which means that the set of vectors is linearly independent.

[PLEASE HELP] in the function above, the slope of it will be multiplied by 1/2 and it’s y value of its y intercept will be increased by 3 units, which of the graphs below best shows the new function???

Answers

Answer:

The graph at the bottom left in your group of possible answers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the original given graph corresponds to the equation:

[tex]y=2x+1[/tex]

since the line's slope is 2/1 = 2 and the y-intercept is at the point (0, 1).

So if one modifies the equation multiplying the current slope by 1/2, and the y intercept increased by 3 units, Then the new function would be:

[tex]y=x+4[/tex]

A line of slope 1 and y-intercept at (0, 4)

Notice that the graph at the bottom left in your possible answers is representing such function.

(Simplify your answer. Do not include the $ symbol in your answer.)​

Answers

Answer:

a) y = 25495 - 2707x

b) y = 25495 - 2707(4) = 14,667

c) $2,707 per year

Step-by-step explanation:

Value now: $25,495

Value in 2 years: $20,081

Loss of value in 2 years: $25,495 - $20,081 = $5,414

Loss of value per year: $5,414/2 = $2,707

a) y = 25495 - 2707x

b) y = 25495 - 2707(4) = 14,667

c) $2,707 per year

From a population that is not normally distributed and whose standard deviation is not known, a sample of 6 items is selected to develop an interval estimate for the mean of the population (μ).
a. The normal distribution can be used.
b. The t distribution with 6 degrees of freedom must be used.
c. The sample size must be increased.
d. The t distribution with 5 degrees of freedom must be used.

Answers

Answer:

d) The t-distribution with 5 degrees of freedom must be used

Step-by-step explanation:

For cases of Normal Distribution where the variance is unknown and the sample size n is smaller than 30, we must use the t-student distribution.

The shape of the curve for t-student is bell-shape (flatter and with wider tails than the bell shape of normal distribution.

Actually, when we deal with t-student distribution we are dealing with a family of curves that will become closer and closer to the bell shape of the normal distribution as the degree of freedom increases. From values of n =30( and bigger),  we can assume that the curve of t-student is the same as for normal distribution

Which of the following points is a solution of y > Ixl + 5?

A. (0, 5)
B. (1, 7)
C. (7, 1)​

Answers

Answer:

B. (1,7)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can substitute the x and y values of each coordinate into the inequality and test if they work.

Let's start with A, 5 being y and 0 being x .

[tex]5 > |0|+5\\5> 0+5\\5 > 5[/tex]

5 IS NOT greater than 5, they are the exact same, so A is out.

Let's try B, 1 being x and 7 being y.

[tex]7 > |1| + 5\\7 > 1 + 5\\7 > 6[/tex]

7 IS greater than 6, so B. (1,7) does work for this inequality!

Let's do C for fun, when 7 is x and 1 is y.

[tex]1 > |7| + 5\\1>7+5\\1>12[/tex]

1 IS NOT greater than 12, it is quite less than 12, so C doesn't work.

Therefore B. (1,7) works for the inequality of [tex]y > |x|+5[/tex].

The mean rate for cable with Internet from a sample of households was $106.50 per month with a standard deviation of $3.85 per month. Assuming the data set has a normal distribution, estimate the percent of households with rates from $100 to $115.

Answers

Answer:

The percent of households with rates from $100 to $115. is      [tex]P(100 < x < 115) =[/tex]94.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

From  the question we are told that  

   The  mean rate is [tex]\mu =[/tex]$ 106.50  per month

    The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma =[/tex]$3.85

Let the lower rate be  [tex]a =[/tex]$100

Let the higher rate  be  [tex]b =[/tex]$ 115

Assumed from the question  that the data set is normally

The  estimate of the percent of households with rates from $100 to $115. is mathematically represented as

         [tex]P(a < x < b) = P[ \frac{a -\mu}{\sigma } } < \frac{x- \mu}{\sigma} < \frac{b - \mu }{\sigma } ][/tex]

here x is a random value rate  which lies between the higher rate and the lower rate so

     [tex]P(100 < x < 115) = P[ \frac{100 -106.50}{3.85} } < \frac{x- \mu}{\sigma} < \frac{115 - 106.50 }{3.85 } ][/tex]

      [tex]P(100 < x < 115) = P[ -1.688< \frac{x- \mu}{\sigma} < 2.208 ][/tex]

Where  

      [tex]z = \frac{x- \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

Where z is the standardized value of  x

So

     [tex]P(100 < x < 115) = P[ -1.688< z < 2.208 ][/tex]

     [tex]P(100 < x < 115) = P(z< 2.208 ) - P(z< -1.69 )[/tex]

Now  from the z table we obtain that

      [tex]P(100 < x < 115) = 0.9864 - 0.0455[/tex]

     [tex]P(100 < x < 115) = 0.941[/tex]

    [tex]P(100 < x < 115) =[/tex]94.1%
