Answer:
[tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{4}{5} *\frac{15}{16} \\= \frac{4*15}{5*16}[/tex]
Reduce the 4 and 16 by dividing both by 4
[tex]=\frac{1*15}{5*4}[/tex]

Suppose that a committee is studying whether there is waste of time in our judicial system. It is interested in the mean amount of time individuals waste at the courthouse waiting to be called for jury duty. The committee randomly surveyed 81 people who recently served as jurors. The sample mean wait time was eight hours with a sample standard deviation of four hours. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean time wasted. Which distribution should you use for this problem
Answer:
The t-distribution is used, as we have the standard deviation of the sample.
The 95% confidence interval for the population mean time wasted is between 7.12 hours and 8.88 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, which meas that the t-distribution should be used to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 81 - 1 = 80
95% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 80 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 1.99
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.99\frac{4}{\sqrt{81}} = 0.88[/tex]
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 8 - 0.88 = 7.12 hours.
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 8 + 0.88 = 8.88 hours.
The 95% confidence interval for the population mean time wasted is between 7.12 hours and 8.88 hours.
Richard has just been given an l0-question multiple-choice quiz in his history class. Each question has five answers, of which only one is correct, Since Richard has not attended a class recently, he doesn't know any of the answers, Assuming that Richard guesses on all 10 questions. Find the indicated probabilities.
A) What is the probability that he will answer all questions correctly?
B) What is the probability that he will answer all questions incorrectly?
C) What is the probability that he will answer at least one of the questions correctly?
Then use the fact that P(r1) = 1 P(r = 0).
D) What is the probability that Richard will answer at least half the questions correctly?
Answer:
a) 0.0000001024 probability that he will answer all questions correctly.
b) 0.1074 = 10.74% probability that he will answer all questions incorrectly
c) 0.8926 = 89.26% probability that he will answer at least one of the questions correctly.
d) 0.0328 = 3.28% probability that Richard will answer at least half the questions correctly
Step-by-step explanation:
For each question, there are only two possible outcomes. Either he answers it correctly, or he does not. The probability of answering a question correctly is independent of any other question. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
Each question has five answers, of which only one is correct
This means that the probability of correctly answering a question guessing is [tex]p = \frac{1}{5} = 0.2[/tex]
10 questions.
This means that [tex]n = 10[/tex]
A) What is the probability that he will answer all questions correctly?
This is [tex]P(X = 10)[/tex]
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 10) = C_{10,10}.(0.2)^{10}.(0.8)^{0} = 0.0000001024[/tex]
0.0000001024 probability that he will answer all questions correctly.
B) What is the probability that he will answer all questions incorrectly?
None correctly, so [tex]P(X = 0)[/tex]
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{10} = 0.1074[/tex]
0.1074 = 10.74% probability that he will answer all questions incorrectly
C) What is the probability that he will answer at least one of the questions correctly?
This is
[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]
Since [tex]P(X = 0) = 0.1074[/tex], from item b.
[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - 0.1074 = 0.8926[/tex]
0.8926 = 89.26% probability that he will answer at least one of the questions correctly.
D) What is the probability that Richard will answer at least half the questions correctly?
This is
[tex]P(X \geq 5) = P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{10,5}.(0.2)^{5}.(0.8)^{5} = 0.0264[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 6) = C_{10,6}.(0.2)^{6}.(0.8)^{4} = 0.0055[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 7) = C_{10,7}.(0.2)^{7}.(0.8)^{3} = 0.0008[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 8) = C_{10,8}.(0.2)^{8}.(0.8)^{2} = 0.0001[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 9) = C_{10,9}.(0.2)^{9}.(0.8)^{1} \approx 0[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 10) = C_{10,10}.(0.2)^{10}.(0.8)^{0} \approx 0[/tex]
So
[tex]P(X \geq 5) = P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) = 0.0264 + 0.0055 + 0.0008 + 0.0001 + 0 + 0 = 0.0328[/tex]
0.0328 = 3.28% probability that Richard will answer at least half the questions correctly

Answer:
∠C = 75°
Step-by-step explanation:
using the formula for the sum of interior mangles for a polygon:
total interior angles = (180° x 5 angles) - 360° = 540°
113° + 4x + 113° + 2x + 9° + 3x + 8° = 540°
combine like terms:
9x + 243° = 540°
9x = 297°
x = 33°
∠C = 2(33) + 9 = 75°

In a certain tropical forest, litter (mainly dead vegetation such as leaves and vines) forms on the ground at the rate of 10 grams per square centimeter per year. At the same time, however, the litter is decomposing at the rate of 80% per year. Let f(t) be the amount of litter (in grams per square centimeter) present at time t. Find a differential equation satisfied by f(t).
Answer:
df(t)/dt = 10 - 0.8f(t)
Step-by-step explanation:
The net rate of change, df(t)/dt = rate in - rate out
The rate in = rate litter forms on ground = 10 g/cm²/yr
Since f(t) is the amount of litter present at time, t, in g/cm² the rate out = rate of decomposition = the percentage rate × f(t) = 80% per year × f(t) = 0.8f(t) g/cm²/yr
Since df(t)/dt = rate in - rate out
df(t)/dt = 10 - 0.8f(t)
So the desired differential equation is
df(t)/dt = 10 - 0.8f(t)

Answer:
Length of pendulum = 72 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Time period (T) = 9.42
pi = 3.14
According to question,
T = 2 x pi x root(L/32)
9.42 = 2 x 3.14 x root(L/32)
9.42 = 6.28 × root (L/32)
9.42/6.28 = root(L/32)
1.5 = root(L/32)
Squaring both sides,
2.25 = L/32
L = 2.25 x 32
L = 72
Answer:
L=72
Step-by-step explanation:
T=2pi[tex]\sqrt{L/32\\}[/tex]
9.42 = (2 x 3.14)[tex]\sqrt{L/32}[/tex]
1.5=[tex]\sqrt{L/32}[/tex]
2.25 = L/32 (I squared both sides)
L=72

What is the sum of the two polynomials?
Given:
The two models for the two polynomials.
To find:
The sum of the given polynomials.
Solution:
From the given figure, it clear that
[tex]\text{First polynomial}=a^2+a+2[/tex]
[tex]\text{Second polynomial}=-a-1[/tex]
Adding both polynomials, we get
[tex]Sum=a^2+a+2+(-a-1)[/tex]
[tex]Sum=a^2+a+2-a-1[/tex]
[tex]Sum=a^2+1[/tex]
Therefore, the correct option is A.
A rectangle is 5 times as long as it is wide. The perimeter is 50 cm. Find the dimensions of the rectangle. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.
Answer:
Dimensions = 21 centimeters by 4.2 centimeters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of the rectangle be L.
Let the width of the rectangle be W.
Given the following data;
Perimeter of rectangle = 50cm
Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;
L = 5W
To find the dimensions of the rectangle;
Perimeter of rectangle = 2L + 2W
50 = 2L + 2W
50 = 2(5W) + 2W
50 = 10W + 2W
50 = 12W
W = 50/12
W = 4.2 cm.
To find the length;
L = 5W
L = 5*4.2
L = 21 cm.

A 13-foot ladder leaning against a building meets the side of the building exactly 12 feet above the ground. How far from the building is the base of the ladder rounded to the nearest hundredth foot?
Answer:
At the moment in question, we have a 5-12-13 right triangle.
x^2 + y^2 = 13^2
2x dx/dt + 2y dy/dt = 0
2(5)(2/3) + 2(12) dy/dt = 0
dy/dt = -5/18 ft/s
the area is 1/2 xy, so
da/dt = 1/2 y dx/dt + 1/2 x dy/dt
= (1/2)((12)(2/3) + (5)(-5/18))
= 119/36
