Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1970.5 thousand

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Vehicle sales in 2009 = 10,002 thousand

Vehicle sales in 2013 = 17,884 thousand

Required

Determine the average rate of change;

From the given parameters, it can be seen that the number of vehicles is a function of year

Let x represent the years and y represent the number of vehicles;

Such that;

[tex]x_1 = 2009;\ y_1 = 10,002[/tex]

[tex]x_2 = 2013;\ y_2 = 17,884[/tex]

The rate of change is calculate as follows;

[tex]m = \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1 - x_2}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{10002 - 17884}{2009 - 2013}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{-7882}{-4}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{-7882}{-4}[/tex]

[tex]m = 1970.5[/tex]

Hence, the average rate of change is 1970.5 thousand

A simple random sample of 20 third-grade children from a certain school district is selected, and each is given a test to measure his/her reading ability. You are interested in calculating a 95% confidence interval for the population mean score. In the sample, the mean score is 64 points, and the standard deviation is 12 points. What is the margin of error associated with the confidence interval

Answers

Answer:

Margin of Error = ME =± 5.2592

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given question n= 20 < 30

Then according to the central limit theorem z test will be applied in which the standard error will be  σ/√n.

Sample Mean = μ = 64

Standard Deviation= S= σ = 12

Confidence Interval = 95 %

α= 0.05

Critical Value for two tailed test for ∝= 0.05 = ±1.96

Margin of Error = ME = Standard Error *Critical Value

ME = 12/√20( ±1.96)=

ME    = 2.6833*( ±1.96)= ± 5.2592

The standard error for this test is σ/√n

=12/√20

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

.If you add 5 to both the numerator and the denominator of a fraction, you obtain 2/3; however, if '
you subtract 5 from both the numerator and the denominator of the same fraction, you obtain 1/4. For what fraction is this true?

Answers

Answer:

The fraction that this is true for = 7/13

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question

Let the numerator be represented by a

Let the denominator be represented by b

If you add 5 to both the numerator and the denominator of a fraction, you obtain 2/3

This means:

a + 5/b + 5 = 2/3

Cross Multiply

3(a + 5) = 2(b + 5)

3a + 15 = 2b + 10

Collect like terms

3a - 2b = 10 - 15

3a - 2b = -5..........Equation 1

If you subtract 5 from both the numerator and the denominator of the same fraction, you obtain 1/4

This means:

a - 5/b - 5 = 1/4

Cross Multiply

4(a - 5) = 1(b - 5)

4a - 20 = b - 5

Collect like terms

4a - b = 20 - 5

4a - b = 15..........Equation 2

b = 4a - 15

3a - 2b = -5..........Equation 1

4a - b = 15..........Equation 2

Substitute 4a - 15 for b in equation 1

3a - 2b = -5..........Equation 1

3a - 2(4a - 15) = -5

3a - 8a + 30 = -5

Collect like terms

3a - 8a = -5 - 30

-5a = -35

a = -35/-5

a = 7

Therefore, the numerator of the fraction = 7

Substitute 7 for a in Equation 2

4a - b = 15..........Equation 2

4 × 7 - b = 15

28 - b =15

28 - 15 = b

b = 13

The denominator = b is 13.

Therefore,the fraction which this is true for = 7/13

To confirm

a) If you add 5 to both the numerator and the denominator of a fraction, you obtain 2/3

This means:

a + 5/b + 5 = 2/3

7 + 5/ 13 + 5 = 2/3

12/18 = 2/3

Divide numerator and denominator by of the left hand side by 6

12÷ 6/ 18 ÷ 6 = 2/3

2/3 =2/3

If you subtract 5 from both the numerator and the denominator of the same fraction, you obtain 1/4

This means:

a - 5/b - 5 = 1/4

7 - 5/13 - 5 = 1/4

2/8 = 1/4

Divide the numerator and denominator of the left hand side by 2

2÷2/8 ÷ 2 = 1/4

1/4 = 1/4

From the above confirmation, the fraction that this is true for is 7/13

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.

Lines $y=(3a+2)x-2$ and $2y=(a-4)x+2$ are parallel. What is the value of $a$?

Answers

Answer:

-8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two lines y=(3a+2)x-2 and 2y=(a-4)x+2, Since both lines are parallel to each other, this means that the slope of both lines are the same

Let's get the slope of both equation. For the first equation;

y=(3a+2)x-2

We can see that the equation is written in this form y = mx+c where m is the slope of the line. On comparison, the slope of the given line is 3a+2

Similarly for the second line;

2y=(a-4)x+2

Re-writing in the standard format we will have;

y = (a-4)x/2+2/2

y = (a-4)x/2 + 1

The slope of the second line is (a-4)/2

On equating the slope of both lines to get the value of 'a' we will have;

3a+2 = (a-4)/2

Cross multiplying

2(3a+2) = a-4

6a+4 = a-4

Collecting like terms;

6a-a = -4-4

5a = -8

a = -8/5

Hence the value of a is -8/5

Answers

Answer:   90°

Step-by-step explanation:

As known ∡EGC=(arcEC+arcDF)/2

arcEC+arcDF=70°*2

5x+10+11x+2=140

16x+12=140

16x=128

x=128:16

x=8

So arcDF=11*x+2=11*8+2=90°

The measure of arc DF is 90°.

What is circle?

A circle is a closed, two-dimensional object where every point in the plane is equally spaced from a central point. The line of reflection symmetry is formed by all lines that traverse the circle. Additionally, every angle has rotational symmetry around the centre.

Given,  Circle A with chords EF and CD that intersect at point G,

arc EC = 5x + 10°

arc DF = 11x + 2°

∠EGC = 70°

The measure of the inner angle is the semi-sum of the arcs comprising it and its opposite

so

∠EGC=(1/2)[arc EC+arc DF]

substitute the values

70 = 1/2(5x + 10 + 11x + 2)

70 = 1/2(16x + 12)

140 = 16x + 12

16x = 128

x = 128/16 = 8

so ac DF = 11x + 2

arc DF = 11(8) + 2

arc DF= 88 + 2 = 90°

Hence the value of arc DF is 90°.

In a random sample of 400 residents of Boston, 320 residents indicated that they voted for Obama in the last presidential election. Develop a 95% confidence interval estimate for the proportion of all Boston residents who voted for Obama.

Answers

Answer:

C.I =  0.7608   ≤ p ≤   0.8392

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Let consider a  random sample n = 400 candidates where  320 residents indicated that they voted for Obama

probability [tex]\hat p = \dfrac{320}{400}[/tex]

= 0.8

Level of significance ∝ = 100 -95%

= 5%

= 0.05

The objective is to  develop a 95% confidence interval estimate for the proportion of all Boston residents who voted for Obama.

The confidence internal can be computed as:

[tex]=\hat p \pm Z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\dfrac{ p(1-p)}{n } }[/tex]

where;

[tex]Z_{0.05/2}[/tex] = [tex]Z_{0.025}[/tex] = 1.960

SO;

[tex]=0.8 \pm 1.960 \sqrt{\dfrac{ 0.8(1-0.8)}{400 } }[/tex]

[tex]=0.8 \pm 1.960 \sqrt{\dfrac{ 0.8(0.2)}{400 } }[/tex]

[tex]=0.8 \pm 1.960 \sqrt{\dfrac{ 0.16}{400 } }[/tex]

[tex]=0.8 \pm 1.960 \sqrt{4 \times 10^{-4}}[/tex]

[tex]=0.8 \pm 1.960 \times 0.02}[/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]

0.06 = 6/100 , 100 would be the denominator because we have two figures after the decimal point. Each figures can also be represented by 10,

Again,

0.06 = 6 × 10-²

Now 0.06 = 6/100

= 3/50.

Therefore, the fractional form = 3/50 in its lowest term.

Which equation represents a population of 250 animals that decreases at an annual rate of 21%

Answers

Answer:

y= 250( 1-0.21)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

This represents exponential decay

The equation represents a population of 250 animals that decreases at an annual rate of 21% will be p = 250(0.79)[tex].^t[/tex] The correct option is C.

What is an exponential function?

The mathematical expression f(x)=[tex]e^t[/tex] denotes the exponential function. The term typically refers to the positive-valued function of a real variable, unless otherwise specified.

Expression in maths is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using signs like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

It is given that a population of 250 animals is decreasing at an annual rate of 21%.

p = a x b[tex].^t[/tex]

p = a x (1+r)[tex].^t[/tex]

p = 250 x (1+(-0.21))[tex].^t[/tex]

p = 250(0.79)[tex].^t[/tex]

Note that r = -0.21 is negative to indicate we have exponential decay.

Hence, the equation represents a population of 250 animals that decreases at an annual rate of 21% will be p = 250(0.79)[tex].^t[/tex] The correct option is C.

I NEED POINTS

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine whether the outcome of the following hypothesis test was a correct decision, a type I error, or a type II error. Claim: "Less than 40% of college students graduate with student loan debt." A hypothesis test of this claim resulted in the decision to reject H0. The actual percentage of college graduates with student loan debt is 45%.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The claim: "Less than 40% of college students graduate with student loan debt."

The null hypothesis: more than 40% of college students graduate with student loan debt." p >= 40%

If the actual percentage of college graduates with student loan debt is 45%. The researcher was supposed to fail to reject the null but since he rejected it when it was actually true, it is a type I error.

A type I error occurs when the research rejects the null when it is actually true.

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
