Answer:
The upper quartile is 20.5825
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the upper quartile we would have to use the following formula:
According to the given data:
value of a stock varies each day from $9.82 to $24.17
Hence, Q=upper quartile,
Therefore, ($24.17 - Q)/($24.17 - $9.82) = 25%
($24.17 - Q)/$14.35=25%
$24.17 - Q=3.5875
Q=20.5825
The upper quartile is 20.5825
Let A = 2, B = 3, C = 9, and D = 15.
Find the value of each expression listed below. -2 -14 10 2 -6 -10 14 6
-A + C - (D ÷ B)----------------------> (answer)
B × (-C) - (-D) + A----------------------> (answer)
(C + D) ÷ B + A----------------------> (answer)
D ÷ B + A - C----------------------> (answer)
Step-by-step explanation:
Put A = 2, B = 3, C = 9 and D = 15 to the given expressions.
Use PEMDAS.
-A + C - (D : B)
-2 + 9 - (15 : 3) = -2 + 9 - 5 = 7 - 5 = 2
B × (-C) - (-D) + A
3 × (-9) - (-15) + 2 = -27 + 15 + 2 = -12 + 2 = -10
(C + D) : B + A
(9 + 15) : 3 + 2 = 24 : 3 + 2 = 8 + 2 = 10
D : B + A - C
15 : 3 + 2 - 9 = 5 + 2 - 9 = 7 - 9 = -2
solve for the variable x^2 - 8 = -1 Show all work please
Answer:
x = ±sqrt(7)
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 - 8 = -1
Add 8 to each side
x^2 - 8+8 = -1+8
x^2 = 7
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(x^2) = ±sqrt(7)
x = ±sqrt(7)
You are given the following information obtained from a random sample of 5 observations. 20 18 17 22 18 At 90% confidence, you want to determine whether or not the mean of the population from which this sample was taken is significantly less than 21. (Assume the population is normally distributed.) a) State the null and the alternative hypotheses. b) Compute the standard error of the mean. c) Determine the test statistic. d) Test to determine whether or not the mean of the population is significantly less than 21.
Answer:
a
The null hypothesis is
[tex]H_o : \mu = 21[/tex]
The Alternative hypothesis is
[tex]H_a : \mu< 21[/tex]
b
[tex]\sigma_{\= x} = 0.8944[/tex]
c
[tex]t = -2.236[/tex]
d
Yes the mean population is significantly less than 21.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are given
a set of data
20 18 17 22 18
The confidence level is 90%
The sample size is n = 5
Generally the mean of the sample is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]\= x = \frac{20 + 18 + 17 + 22 + 18}{5}[/tex]
[tex]\= x = 19[/tex]
The standard deviation is evaluated as
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{ \frac{\sum (x_i - \= x)^2}{n} }[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{ \frac{ ( 20- 19 )^2 + ( 18- 19 )^2 +( 17- 19 )^2 +( 22- 19 )^2 +( 18- 19 )^2 }{5} }[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = 2[/tex]
Now the confidence level is given as 90 % hence the level of significance can be evaluated as
[tex]\alpha = 100 - 90[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 10[/tex]%
[tex]\alpha =0.10[/tex]
Now the null hypothesis is
[tex]H_o : \mu = 21[/tex]
the Alternative hypothesis is
[tex]H_a : \mu< 21[/tex]
The standard error of mean is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]\sigma_{\= x} = \frac{\sigma}{ \sqrt{n} }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]\sigma_{\= x} = \frac{2}{ \sqrt{5 } }[/tex]
[tex]\sigma_{\= x} = 0.8944[/tex]
The test statistic is evaluated as
[tex]t = \frac{\= x - \mu }{ \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]t = \frac{ 19 - 21 }{ 0.8944 }[/tex]
[tex]t = -2.236[/tex]
The critical value of the level of significance is obtained from the critical value table for z values as
[tex]z_{0.10} = 1.28[/tex]
Looking at the obtained value we see that [tex]z_{0.10}[/tex] is greater than the test statistics value so the null hypothesis is rejected
Winston and Alice are taking a trip. Winston left at 8 am and traveled an average of 50 miles per hour. Alice left at 10 am and traveled an average of 70 miles per hour. At what time are they at the same place at the same time? Write a system of equation to represent this situation. Then use the substitution method with that system to determine at the time they will be in the same location. How many miles away from home will they be at that time?
Answer:
3 PM
350 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say t is the number of hours since 8 AM.
The distance traveled by Winston is:
w = 50t
The distance traveled by Alice is:
a = 70(t−2)
When w = a:
50t = 70(t−2)
50t = 70t − 140
140 = 20t
t = 7
Winston and Alice will be at the same place 7 hours after 8 AM, or 3 PM.
The distance they travel is 350 miles.
Use z scores to compare the given values. The tallest living man at one time had a height of 249 cm. The shortest living man at that time had a height of 120.2 cm. Heights of men at that time had a mean of 176.55 cm and a standard deviation of 7.23 cm. Which of these two men had the height that was more extreme?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Average height = 176.55 cm
Height of tallest man = 249 cm
Standard deviation = 7.23
z score of tallest man
= (249 - 176.55) / 7.23
= 10.02
Average height = 176.55 cm
Height of shortest man = 120.2 cm
Standard deviation = 7.23
z score of smallest man
= ( 176.55 - 120.2 ) / 7.23
= 7.79
Since Z - score of tallest man is more , his height was more extreme .
The linear combination method is applied to a system of equations as shown. 4(.25x + .5y = 3.75) → x + 2y = 15 (4x – 8y = 12) → x – 2y = 3 2x = 18
Answer:
x+2y=12-------(1)
x-2y=3---------(2)
Adding equations 1 and 2
we get
2x=18
x=9
Equation 1

Duane is making cookies. The recipe calls for two times as many cups of sugar as butter, two times as many cups of oats as sugar, and two times as many cups of flour as oats. If Duane puts in one cup of butter, how many cups of flour does he need to add? (also this is from MobyMax)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let b represent the number of cups of butter needed.
Let s represent the number of cups of sugar needed.
Let o represent the number of cups of oat needed.
Let f represent the number of cups of flour needed.
The recipe calls for two times as many cups of sugar as butter. It means that
s = 2b
Two times as many cups of oats as sugar. It means that
o = 2s
Two times as many cups of flour as oats. It means that
f = 2o
If Duane puts in one cup of butter, it means that b = 1
Therefore,
s = 2 × 1 = 2 cups
o = 2s = 2 × 2 = 4 cups
f = 2o = 2 × 4 = 8 cups
Therefore, he needs to add 8 cups of flour

Step-by-step explanation:
Line segment TS is tangent to circle O at point N.
Circle O is shown. Line segment Q N goes from one side of the circle to the other side. Tangent T S intersects the circle at point N. Point P is on the circle between points Q and N. Point R is on the circle between points Q and N. Angle Q N T is 74 degrees.
If the measure of Angle Q N T is 74°, what is the measure of Arc Q P N?
37°
74°
148°
212°\
Answer:
148°
Step-by-step explanation:
The measure of the intercepted arc QN is twice the measure of inscribed angle QNT.
arc QN = 2(74°) = 148°
_____
Comment on the question and answer
Your description "on the circle between points Q and N" is ambiguous. You used the same description for both points P and R. The interpretation we used is shown in the attachment. If point P is on the long arc NQ, then the measure of arc QPN will be the difference between 148° and 360°, hence 212°. You need to choose the answer that matches the diagram you have.
__
We call angle QNT an "inscribed angle" because it is a degenerate case of an inscribed angle. The usual case has the vertex of the angle separate from the ends of the arc it intercepts. In the case of a tangent meeting a chord, the vertex is coincident with one of the ends of the intercepted arc. The relation between angle measure and arc measure remains the same: 1 : 2.
Answer:
148

(Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.)
Full Question
Of the cartons produced by a company, 10% have a puncture, 6% have a smashed corner, and 0.4% have both a puncture and a smashed corner. Find the probability that a randomly selected carton has a puncture or a smashed corner. The probability that a randomly selected carton has a puncture or a smashed corner nothing ____%. (Type an integer or a decimal. Do not round.)
Answer:
[tex]P(Punctured\ or\ Smashed\ Corner) = 0.156[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Puncture\ Corner = 10\%[/tex]
[tex]Smashed\ Corner = 6\%[/tex]
[tex]Punctured\ and\ Smashed\ Corner = 0.4\%[/tex]
Required
[tex]P(Punctured\ or\ Smashed\ Corner)[/tex]
For non-mutually exclusive event described above, P(Punctured or Smashed Corner) can be calculated as thus;
[tex]P(Punctured\ or\ Smashed\ Corner) = P(Punctured\ Corner) + P(Smashed\ Corner) - P(Punctured\ and\ Smashed\ Corner)[/tex]
Substitute:
10% for P(Puncture Corner),
6% for P(Smashed Corner) and
0.4% for P(Punctured and Smashed Corner)
[tex]P(Punctured\ or\ Smashed\ Corner) = 10\% + 6\% - 0.4\%[/tex]
[tex]P(Punctured\ or\ Smashed\ Corner) = 15.6\%[/tex]
Convert % to fraction
[tex]P(Punctured\ or\ Smashed\ Corner) = \frac{15.6}{100}[/tex]
Convert to decimal
[tex]P(Punctured\ or\ Smashed\ Corner) = 0.156[/tex]
Using Venn probabilities, it is found that:
The probability that a randomly selected carton has a puncture or a smashed corner is 15.6%.In this problem, the events are:
Event A: Puncture.Event B: Smashed corner.The "or" probability is given by:
[tex]P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)[/tex]
10% have a puncture, hence [tex]P(A) = 0.1[/tex]6% have a smashed corner, hence [tex]P(B) = 0.06[/tex].0.4% have both a puncture and a smashed corner, hence [tex]P(A \cup B) = 0.004[/tex].Then:
[tex]P(A \cup B) = 0.1 + 0.06 - 0.004 = 0.156[/tex]
The probability that a randomly selected carton has a puncture or a smashed corner is 15.6%.

Find the most general antiderivative of the function. (Check your answer by differentiation. Use C for the constant of the antiderivative.) f(x) = x2 − 7x + 5
Answer:
F(x) = [tex]\frac{x^3}{3} - \frac{7x^2}{2} + 5x + c[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The antiderivative of a function (also called the integration of a function) is the reverse of the differentiation of that function. Given a function f(x), its integration, F(x), can be calculated as follows;
F(x) = [tex]\int\limits{f(x)} \, dx[/tex]
From the question, f(x) = x² - 7x + 5
Therefore,
F(x) = [tex]\int\limits {(x^2 - 7x + 5)} \, dx[/tex]
F(x) = [tex]\frac{x^3}{3} - \frac{7x^2}{2} + 5x + c[/tex]
Where c is the constant of the integration (antiderivative).
PS: The constant of integration is used for indefinite integrals and allows to express integration of a function in its most general form.
Olivia, a golfer, claims that her drive distance is more than 174 meters, on average. Several of her friends do not believe her, so she decides to do a hypothesis test, at a 10% significance level, to persuade them. She hits 15 drives. The mean distance of the sample drives is 188 meters. Olivia knows from experience that the standard deviation for her drive distance is 14 meters. H0: μ=174; Ha: μ>174 α=0.1 (significance level) What is the test statistic (z-score) of this one-mean hypothesis test, rounded to two decimal places?
Answer:
3.87
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation is shown below:
Data provided in the question
mean distance = [tex]\bar x[/tex] = 188 meters
Standard deviaton = [tex]\sigma = 14[/tex]
Hits drivers = 15
The distance = 174 meters
H_0: μ≤174;
H_a: μ>174
Based on the above information, the test statistic z-score is
[tex]z = \frac{\bar x - \mu }{\sigma / \sqrt{n} } \\\\ = \frac{188 - 174}{\ 14 / \sqrt{15} }[/tex]
= 3.87
Hence, the test statistic is 3.87
Note:
We take the μ≤174 instead of μ=174;
consider the distribution of monthly social security (OASDI) payments. Assume a normal distribution with a standard deviation of $116. if one-fourth of payments are above $1214,87 what is the mean monthly payment?
Answer:
[tex]\mu = x - z(\sigma)[/tex]
[tex]\mu = 1214.87 - 0.67(116) \\\\\mu = 1214.87 - 77.72 \\\\\mu = \$1137.15[/tex]
Therefore, the mean monthly payment is $1137.15.
Step-by-step explanation:
What is Normal Distribution?
We are given a Normal Distribution, which is a continuous probability distribution and is symmetrical around the mean. The shape of this distribution is like a bell curve and most of the data is clustered around the mean. The area under this bell shaped curve represents the probability.
We are asked to find the mean monthly social security (OASDI) payment.
Mean monthly payment = μ = ?
We are given that the standard deviation is $116
One-fourth of payments are above $1214.87
One-fourth means 25%
[tex]P(X > x )= P(Z > z ) = 0.25\\\\P(X < x )= P(Z < z) = 1 - 0.25\\\\P(X < x )= P(Z < z) = 0.75\\\\[/tex]
From the z-table, the z-score corresponding to 0.75 is found to be 0.67
[tex]z = 0.67[/tex]
The mean is found by
[tex]x = \mu + z(\sigma)[/tex]
[tex]\mu = x - z(\sigma)[/tex]
Where
x = $1214.87
z = 0.67
σ = $116
[tex]\mu = 1214.87 - 0.67(116) \\\\\mu = 1214.87 - 77.72 \\\\\mu = \$1137.15[/tex]
Therefore, the mean monthly payment is $1137.15.
What is the image of (-8, 10) when reflected in the y-axis?
Answer:
if you're just reflecting the point over the y-axis it just becomes (8,10)
Answer: (8, 10)
Explanation and Example:
I have a trick that I use. I'm not sure if it will make sense to you but I'll explain it. When the question asks you to reflect over the x-axis, then keep the x in (x,y) the same and just flip the sign for the y. If the question asks you to reflect over the y-axis, then keep y the same and flip the sign for x.
Reflect over x-axis:
(-2, 6) -----> (-2, -6)
Reflect over y-axis:
(-4, -8) -----> (4, -8)
An accountant receives a salary of $262,000 per year. During the year, he plans to spend $99,000 on his mortgage, $54,000 on food, $32,000 on clothing, $41,000 on household expenses, and $28,000 on other expenses. With the money that is left, he expects to buy as many shares of stock at $250 per share as possible. Using the equation below, determine how many shares will he be able to buy? What was the sum of the accountant's expenses?
Answer:
Number of shares = 32 shares
Accountant total expenses= $254000
Step by step explanation:
The accountant salary is $262000
He spends $99000 on mortage
Spends $54000 on foods
Spends $32000 on clothing
Spends $41000 on household
Spends $28000 on others
Total expenses= 99000+54000+32000+41000+28000
Total expenses =$254000
Remaining money = 262000-254000
Remaining money= $8000
If shares = $250 for one
To know the amount he buys with the remaining money
We divide remaining money by shares cost
= $8000/$250
= 32 shares
BRAINLIEST ANSWER GIVEN Without actually solving the problem, choose the correct solution by deciding which choice satisfies the given conditions. The length of a rectangle is 2 feet longer than the width. The perimeter is 20 feet. Find the dimensions of the rectangle. Length= ?; width=?
Answer:
length = 6 feetwidth = 4 feetStep-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2l + 2w
where l is the length
w is the width
The length of the rectangle is 2 feet longer than the width is written as
l = 2 + w
Perimeter = 20feet
So we have
20 = 2( 2 + w ) + 2w
20 = 4 + 2w + 2w
4w = 16
Divide both sides by 4
w = 4
Substitute w = 4 into l = 2 + w
That's
l = 2 + 4
l = 6
length = 6 feetwidth = 4 feetHope this helps you
Answer:
w = 4 and L = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l+w)
p = 20
L = 2 + w
w = ?
20 = 2(2 + w + w)
20 = 2(2 + 2w)
20/2 = 2 + 2w
10 = 2 + 2w
10 - 2 = 2w
8 = 2w
w = 8/2 = 4
L = w + 2
L = 4 +2 = 6
w = 4 and L = 10

In a survey of 300 T.V. viewers, 40% said they watch network news programs. Find the margin of error for this survey if we want 95% confidence in our estimate of the percent of T.V. viewers who watch network news programs.
Answer:
0.05543Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for calculating the margin of error is expressed as;
[tex]M.E = z * \sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{n} }[/tex] where;
z is the z-score at 95% confidence = 1.96 (This is gotten from z-table)
p is the percentage probability of those that watched network news
p = 40% = 0.4
n is the sample size = 300
Substituting this values into the formula will give;
[tex]M.E = 1.96*\sqrt{\frac{0.4(1-0.4)}{300} }\\ \\M.E = 1.96*\sqrt{\frac{0.4(0.6)}{300} }\\\\\\M.E = 1.96*\sqrt{\frac{0.24}{300} }\\\\\\M.E = 1.96*\sqrt{0.0008}\\\\\\M.E = 1.96*0.02828\\\\M.E \approx 0.05543[/tex]
Hence, the margin of error for this survey if we want 95% confidence in our estimate of the percent of T.V. viewers who watch network news programs is approximately 0.05543

Jeremy's father drives him to school in rush hour traffic in 20 minutes. One day there is no traffic, so his father can drive him 18 miles per hour faster and gets him to school in 12 minutes. How far (in miles) is it from Jeremy's home to school?
Answer:
9 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say that the speed that Jeremy's father drives Jeremy through traffic is x. When there is no traffic, Jeremy's father drives 18 miles per hour faster than his speed in traffic, x. This would make the speed that Jeremy's father drives Jeremy to school without traffic, 18 / 60 + x. This is as it is 18 miles per hour faster, not 18 miles per minute faster.
Now recall the formula Speed = Distance / Time, or S = D / T. We want the distance here ( How far (in miles) from Jeremy's home to school ) so let's isolate D here in this formula,
S = D / T ⇒ D = S [tex]*[/tex] T - and as you know, the distance from Jeremy's home to school is the same, with or without traffic. So, we can consider case 1 : Jeremy's " distance traveled " in traffic, and case 2 : Jeremy's " distance traveled " without traffic, and make them equal to one another.
20 [tex]*[/tex] x = 12 [tex]*[/tex] ( 18 / 60 + x ),
20x = 3.6 + 12x,
8x = 3.6,
x = 0.45 - Now the distance is 20 [tex]*[/tex] x, and hence 20 [tex]*[/tex] 0.45 = 9 miles

Step-by-step explanation:
A was simple because 7 people with blue eyes for every 20 people written in fraction form. For b they say what if it was 100 total people so 20 x 5 = 100 so 7 x 5= 35 so your answer to b is 35
Which statement best describes the end behavior of the following function?
F(x) = -x3 - 2x2 +7x-10
A. The graph of the function is high on the extreme left side, and low on the extreme right side.
The graph has no "start" or "end". It's defined for all 'x' between negative and positive infinity. So no matter how far left or right you go, there's always a 'y' for whatever 'x' you're at.
But it's guaranteed that once you get far enough left (negative x), the first term -x³ will definitely be positive, and will become more and more positive as you go farther left.
And similarly, once you get far enough right (positive x), the first term, -x³ will definitely be negative, and it'll become more and more negative as you go farther right.
So, except for some wiggling within a short distance either side of the origin, if you look at this graph from 10 miles away, f(x) comes out of the sky on the left side, and it heads down into the salt mine on the right side.
