Oscar says to Vanesa: "I am five times the age you were when I was the age you are; and when you are the age I am, our ages will add up to 72 years." How old is Vanessa? Please

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Vanessa is 60 and the other person is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

X + 5x = 72

6x = 72

x = 12

12 x 5 = 60

vanessa is 60

the other person is 12

60 + 12 = 72

Answer 2

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say x is Oscar's age, and y is Vanessa's age.

When Oscar was Vanessa's age, Vanessa was y−(x−y) = 2y−x years old.  Oscar is five times older than this:

x = 5 (2y − x)

x = 10y − 5x

6x = 10y

3x = 5y

When Vanessa is Oscar's age, Oscar will be x+(x−y) = 2x−y years old.  The sum of their ages will by 72.

2x−y + x = 72

3x − y = 72

Substituting:

5y − y = 72

4y = 72

y = 18

Vanessa is 18.  Which means Oscar is 30.

Let's check our answer.  When Oscar was 18, Vanessa was 6.  Oscar is 5 times older than that (30).  When Vanessa is 30, Oscar will be 42, and their ages will add up to 72.

Find the angle between the given vectors to the nearest tenth of a degree. u = , v = (2 points)

Answers

Answer:

3.6°

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

Find the angle between the given vectors to the nearest tenth of a degree.

u = <8, 7>, v = <9, 7>

we will be using the formula below to calculate the angle between the two vectors;

[tex]u*v = |u||v| cos \theta[/tex]

[tex]\theta[/tex] is the angle between the two vectors.

u = 8i + 7j and v = 9i+7j

u*v = (8i + 7j )*(9i + 7j )

u*v = 8(9) + 7(7)

u*v = 72+49

u*v = 121

|u| = √8²+7²

|u| = √64+49

|u| = √113

|v| = √9²+7²

|v| = √81+49

|v| = √130

Substituting the values into the formula;

121= √113*√130 cos θ

cos θ = 121/121.20

cos θ = 0.998

θ = cos⁻¹0.998

θ = 3.6° (to nearest tenth)

Hence, the angle between the given vectors is 3.6°

Answers

Answer: 27061

Step-by-step explanation:

given that Р = 0.5

so

1 - P = 1 - 0.5  = 0.5

ERROR OF MARGIN E = 0.01

SIGNIFICANCE LEVEL α = 1 - confidence level

α = [(1 - (99.9/100)] = 0.0010

α / 2 = 0.001 / 2 = 0.0005

Zα/2 = Z0.0005 = 3.29  (using the Z table )

therefore

Sample size n = ((Zα/2) / E)² * P * (1 - P )

Sample size  n = (3.29 / 0.01)² * 0.5 * 0.5

Sample size n = 108,241 * 0.5 * 0.5

Sample size n = 27,060.25 ≈ 27,061

Answer:

sample size should be atleast n= 27069

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

confident level(CI) = 99%= 0.999

desired marginal error=1%= 0.01

note: marginal error = length of CL/2

significant level α = 1 - confident level = 1 - 0.999= 0.001

critical value = Zα/2 = Z(0.001/2) = Z0.0005( value of from z table) = 3.2905267

since we don't have preliminary estimate, p' = 0.5, which is require for maximum value

n = p' × (1 - p')(critical value/desired marginal)²

n= 0.5 × 0.5(3.2905267/0.01)²

n = 27068.91

the value of n has to be an integer = 27069

4. A number m is such that when it is divided by 30, 36, and 45 the remainder is always 7,
find the smallest possible value of m

Answers

Answer:

187

Step-by-step explanation:

A number m is such that when it is divided by 30, 36 and 45 the remainder is always 7.

We should first find the LCM of 30, 36 and 45

We get that the LCM of the three numbers is 280 (working attached).

So now;

[tex]\frac{180}{30}[/tex] = 6

[tex]\frac{180}{36}[/tex] = 5

[tex]\frac{180}{45}[/tex] = 4

But we need a number that leaves a remainder of 7 so we add 7 to 180 to get; 180 + 7 = 187.

A. The statement indicates that the study is 100%−3​%=97​% confident that the true population percentage of people that prefer chocolate pie is 11​%
B. The statement indicates that the interval 11​%+3​% is likely to contain the true population percentage of people that prefer chocolate pie.
C. The statement indicates that the true population percentage of people that prefer chocolate pie is in the interval 11​%±3​%.
D. The statement indicates that the study is only 3​% confident that the true population percentage of people that prefer chocolate pie is exactly 11​%.

Answers

Answer:

C. The statement indicates that the true population percentage of people that prefer chocolate pie is in the interval 11​%±3​%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the questions

Number of respondents = 1,000

Choose chocolate pie = 11%

margin of error = ±3 percentage points

Based on the above information,

The lower limit is

= 0.11 - 0.03

= 0.08

And, the upper limit is

= 0.11 + 0.03

= 0.14

So based on the above computation, the option c is correct as it represents the true population percentage of people with respect to the chocolate pie preference

Large samples of women and men are​ obtained, and the hemoglobin level is measured in each subject. Here is the​ 95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population​ means, where the measures from women correspond to population 1 and the measures from men correspond to population​ 2:

negative 1.76 g divided by dL less than mu 1 minus mu 2 less than minus 1.62 g divided by dL

−1.76 g/dL<μ1−μ2<−1.62 g/dL. Complete parts​ (a) through​ (c) below.

a. What does the confidence interval suggest about equality of the mean hemoglobin level in women and the mean hemoglobin level in​ men?

Answers

Answer:

a) Because the confidence interval  does not include  0​ it appears that there

is  a significant difference between the mean level of hemoglobin in women and the mean level of hemoglobin in men.

b)There is​ 95% confidence that the interval from  −1.76 g/dL<μ1−μ2<−1.62 g/dL actually contains the value of the difference between the two population means μ1−μ2

c)   1.62 < μ1−μ2< 1.76

Step-by-step explanation:

a) What does the confidence interval suggest about equality of the mean hemoglobin level in women and the mean hemoglobin level in​ men?

Given:

95% confidence interval for the difference between the two population​ means:

−1.76g/dL< μ1−μ2 < −1.62g/dL

population 1 =  measures from women

population 2 =  measures from men

Solution:

a)

The given confidence interval has upper and lower bound of 1-62 and -1.76. This confidence interval does not contain 0. This shows that the population means difference is not likely to be 0. Thus the confidence interval implies that the mean hemoglobin level in women and the mean hemoglobin level in​ men is not equal and that the  women are likely to have less hemoglobin than men. This depicts that there is significant difference between mean hemoglobin level in women and the mean hemoglobin level in​ men.

b)  

There is​ 95% confidence that the interval −1.76 g/dL<μ1−μ2<−1.62 g/dL actually contains the value of the difference between the two population means μ1−μ2.

c)

If we interchange men and women then

confidence interval range sign will become positive.μ1 becomes the population mean of the hemoglobin level in menμ2 becomes the population mean of the hemoglobin level in women So confidence interval becomes:

                                          1.62 g/dL<μ1−μ2<1.76 g/dL.

There is a significant difference between the mean level of hemoglobin in women and in men.

How to interpret the confidence interval

The confidence interval of the mean is given as:

[tex]-1.76 g/dL < \mu_1-\mu_2 < -1.62 g/dL[/tex]

The above confidence interval shows that the confidence interval is exclusive of 0.

This means that 0 is not part of the confidence interval

Since the confidence interval is exclusive of 0, then there is a significant difference between the mean level of hemoglobin in women and in men.

Answers

Answer:

A. Pr(8)   = 1/10

B.  Pr(odd)  = 1/2

C.  Pr(even)  = 1/2

D. Pr(less than 6)  = 1/2

E.  Pr(prime) = 2/5

F. Pr(3 or 8)  = 1 / 5

G. Pr(8, 9 or 10) = 3/10

H. Pr(greater than 9)  = P(10) = 1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume a FAIR 10-faced die, meaning there is an equal probability of throwing any one of the ten numbers.

With 10 possible outcomes each with equal probability, the probability of throwing any number is 1/10.

(It is preferable to work with fractions in probability because fractions are exact numbers, while decimals can often be rounded, or truncated).

A. Pr(8)   means probability of throwing an 8,  therefore Pr(8) = 1/10

B. Pr(odd)  there are 5 odd number from 1 to 10, so Pr(odd) = 5/10 = 1/2

C. Pr(even)  there are 5 even number from 1 to 10, so Pr(even) = 5/10 = 1/2

D. Pr(less than 6)  there are 5 numbers less than 6 (between1 to 10),

       so Pr(less than 6) = 5/10 = 1/2

E. Pr(prime) (remember that 1 is not prime)

   A prime number is an integer not divisible by any number except one and itself.

   Between 1 to 10, the four prime numbers are 2,3,5,7

   therefore Pr(prime) = 4/10 = 2/5

F. Pr(3 or 8)  

(3 or 8) make 2 successful outcomes out of 10, so Pr(3 or 8) = 2/10 = 1 / 5

G. Pr(8, 9 or 10)

similarly, (8,9 or 10) make three successful possible outcomes out of 10, so

P(8,9 or 10) = 3/10

H. Pr(greater than 9)

there is only one successful outcome, namely "10" out of 10 possible outcomes.  So

P(greater than 9) = P(10) = 1/10

1. please explain what’s a “die” all I know was “dice” but dice is 6 sided yea?

A die is singular for dice, which can take up any number of faces.  With a 10-faced solid, we can make a 10-faced die numbered 1 to 10.

2. and please explain the answer... I’m international student so I still need some explanation for the questions and answers thank you

See solutions above.

Answer:

Remember that standard probabilities are defined as the ratio between the number of favorable cases, and the total number of possible events.

In this case, we have a 10-sided die, which means its faces are numbered from 1 to 10, which gives us 10 total number of possible events. In other words, the denominator of the ratio is going to be 10.

Now we're able to find each probability.

(A) Probability of getting an 8:

[tex]P_{8} =\frac{1}{10}=0.10[/tex]

The numerator is 1 because there's only one number 8 in the die, that means the number of favorable cases is 1, and, as we said before, the total number of possible events is 10.

(B) Probability of getting an odd number:

[tex]P_{odd} =\frac{5}{10}=0.5[/tex]

The numerator is 5 because there are 5 odd numbers from 1 to 10. In other words, there are 5 favorable cases to this probability.

(C) Probability of getting an even number:

[tex]P_{even}=\frac{5}{10}=0.5[/tex]

There are 5 even numbers from 1 to 10, that's why we had the same probability.

(D) Probability of getting a number less than 6:

We know that there are only 5 numbers less than 6 for this die.

[tex]P_{<6}=\frac{5}{10}=0.5[/tex]

(E) Probability of getting a prime number:

A prime number is such that it can be divided only by itself and the unit. So, there are four prime numbers from 1 to 10, which are 2, 3, 5, 7.

[tex]P_{prime}=\frac{4}{10}=0.4[/tex]

(F) Probability of getting 3 or 8:

When we are going to find the probability of an event "or" another, we must sum those favorable cases.

[tex]P_{3 \ or \ 8} =\frac{1+1}{10}=\frac{2}{10}=0.2[/tex]

(G) Probability of getting 8, 9, or 10:

In this case, we need to some all three favorable cases. The die has only one 8, one 9 and one 10. So, the probability is

[tex]P_{8,9,10}=\frac{1+1+1}{10}=\frac{3}{10} =0.3[/tex]

(H) Probability of getting a number greater than 9:

We know that there's only one number greater than 10 on such die.

[tex]P_{>10}=\frac{1}{10}=0.1[/tex]

Lastly, "die" refers to this special 10-sided dice. In other problems, you can find "a die" with more faces even. But, in general, "die" refers to a dice.

If –3 + i is a root of the polynomial function f(x), which of the following must also be a root of f(x)?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

REcall that f(x) is a polynomial whose one of its roots is -3+i. The fundamental algebra theorem states that any polynomial of degree n has n complex roots. In the real case, it can be also interpreted as any polynomial can be factored in factors of degree at most 2.

Consider that given a polynomial of degree 2 of the form [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex] the solutions are given by

[tex] x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt[]{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

In this case, the fact that x is real or complex depends on the number [tex]b^2-4ac[/tex] which is called the discriminant. When this number is negative, we have that x is a complex root. Let say that [tex]b^4-4ac<0[/tex] and that [tex]\sqrt[]{b^4-4ac}=di[/tex], so the roots are given by

[tex] x_1 = \frac{-b + di}{2a}, x_2 = x_1 = \frac{-b - di}{2a}[/tex]

this means that, whenever we have a complex root, the other root is the complex conjugate. Recall that the complex conjugate of a complex number of the form a+bi is obtained by changing the sign of the imaginary part, that is a-bi.

So, in our case since -3+i is a root, then -3-i necessarily is another root.

If -3 + i is a root then -3 - i is too.

Therefore, the answer is -3 - i
