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

Answer:
The expression that fits into the box is x¹⁵⁸
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the empty box be y
(x¹²)⁵ × (x⁻²)⁹ × y = (x⁴⁰)⁵
Here, we will apply the laws of indices.
The laws of indices gives the answer for the expressions
1) xᵏ × xˢ = xᵏ⁺ˢ
2) xᵏ ÷ xˢ = xᵏ⁻ˢ
3) (xᵏ)ˢ = xᵏ•ˢ
So,
(x¹²)⁵ = x⁶⁰
(x⁻²)⁹ = x⁻¹⁸
(x⁴⁰)⁵ = x²⁰⁰
(x¹²)⁵ × (x⁻²)⁹ × y = (x⁴⁰)⁵
Becomes
x⁶⁰ × x⁻¹⁸ × y = x²⁰⁰
x⁶⁰⁻¹⁸ × y = x²⁰⁰
x⁴² × y = x²⁰⁰
y = x²⁰⁰ ÷ x⁴²
y = x²⁰⁰⁻⁴² = x¹⁵⁸

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.
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

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.
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.
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)
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.

Find the exact perimeter (in inches) and area (in square inches) of the segment shown, given that m∠O = 60° and OA = 24 in.
Answer:
A. Perimeter of segment = 49 in.
B. Area of segment = 52 in².
Step-by-step explanation:
Data obtained from the question include:
Radius (r) = 24 in.
Angle at the centre (θ) = 60°
Perimeter of segment =.?
Area of segment =.?
A. Determination of the perimeter of the segment.
Perimeter of segment = length of arc + length of chord
Length of arc = θ/360 x 2πr
Length of chord = 2r x sine (θ/2)
Pi (π) = 3.14
Length of arc = θ/360 x 2πr
Length of arc = 60/360 x 2 x 3.14 x 24
Lenght of arc = 25.12 in
Length of chord = 2r x sine (θ/2)
Length of chord = 2 x 24 x sine (60/2)
Length of chord = 24 in
Perimeter of segment = length of arc + length of chord
Perimeter of segment = 25.12 + 24
Perimeter of segment = 49.12 ≈ 49 in.
B. Determination of the area of the segment.
Area of segment = Area of sector – Area of triangle.
Area of sector = θ/360 x πr²
Area of triangle = r²/2 sine θ
Area of sector = θ/360 x πr²
Area of sector = 60/360 x 3.14 x 24²
Area of sector = 301.44 in²
Area of triangle = r²/2 sine θ
Area of triangle = 24²/2 x sine 60
Area of triangle = 249.42 in².
Area of segment = Area of sector – Area of triangle.
Area of segment = 301.44 – 249.42
Area of segment = 52.02 ≈ 52 in²

Step-by-step explanation:
Well, he will obviously be using 12 cups of pretzels, so let's set that aside. For every cup of pretzels, there are 3 cups of chex. So, multiply 3x12. That will give you how much chex you will need.
For the following data set, you are interested to determine the "spread" of the data. Would you employ calculations for the sample standard deviation, or population standard deviation for this data set: You are interested in the heights of students at a particular middle school. Your data set represents the heights of all students in the middle school with 600 students.
Answer: Use calculations for population standard deviation.
Step-by-step explanation:
The population standard deviation is defined as
a parameter which is a fixed valueevaluated by considering individual in the population.A sample standard deviation is defined as
a statistic ( whose value is not fixed ). Evaluated from a subset (sample) of population.Since, data set represents the heights of all students in the middle school with 600 students which is population here.
So, we do calculations to find population standard deviation.
Change -2Y - X=-2 to the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line.
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

Since the triangles are congruent, we know that their corresponding angles are congruent as well.
Therefore, we have:
m∠B = m∠F = 40°.
Note that we also have:
m∠C = m∠A = 80° (by corresponding angles)
m∠H = m∠G = 60° (by corresponding angles)
Finally, we can use the fact that the sum of the angles in a triangle is 180° to find the measure of angle D:
m∠D = 180° - m∠B - m∠C = 180° - 40° - 80° = 60°.

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]

The average weight of a person is 160.5 pounds with a standard deviation of 10.4 pounds. 1. What is the probability a person weighs more than 150.2 pounds
Answer:
0.8390
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question,
Z score = (Value-mean)/standard deviation
Z score = (150.2-160.5)/10.4
Z score = -0.9904.
P(x>Z) = 1- P(x<Z)
From the Z table,
P(x<Z) = 0.16099
Therefore,
P(x>Z) = 1-0.16099
P(x>Z) = 0.8390
Hence the probability that a person weighs more than 150.2 pounds = 0.8390
A clinical trial was conducted to test the effectiveness of a drug for treating insomnia in older subjects. Before treatment, 17 subjects had a mean wake time of 104.0 min. After treatment, the 17 subjects had a mean wake time of 97.5 min and a standard deviation of 21.9 min. Assume that the 17 sample values appear to be from a normally distributed population and construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean wake time for a population with drug treatments. What does the result suggest about the mean wake time of 104.0 min before the treatment? Does the drug appear to be effective?
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval of mean wake time for a population with treatment is between 86.2401 and 108.7599 minutes.
This interval contains the mean wake time before treatment and which does not prove to be effective
Step-by-step explanation:
GIven that :
sample size n = 17
sample mean [tex]\overline x[/tex] = 97.5
standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] = 21.9
At 95% Confidence interval
the level of significance ∝ = 1 - 0.95
the level of significance ∝ = 0.05
[tex]t_{\alpha/2} = 0.025[/tex]
Degree of freedom df = n - 1
Degree of freedom df = 17 - 1
Degree of freedom df = 16
At ∝ = 0.05 and df = 16 , the two tailed critical value from the t-table [tex]t_{\alpha/2 , 16}[/tex] is :2.1199
Therefore; at 95% confidence interval; the mean wake time is:
= [tex]\overline x \pm t_{\alpha/2,df} \dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
= [tex]97.5 \pm 2.1199 \times \dfrac{21.9}{\sqrt{17}}[/tex]
= 97.5 ± 11.2599
= (86.2401 , 108.7599)
Therefore; the mean wake time before the treatment was 104.0 min
The 95% confidence interval of mean wake time for a population with treatment is between 86.2401 and 108.7599 minutes.
This interval contains the mean wake time before treatment and which does not prove to be effective
