Suppose that three out of five voters support a candidate. If 1,240 voters support the candidate, how many voters participated in the election in all? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2067 voters

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that three out of five voters support a candidate.

This means 3/5 votes support a candidate

Let the total number rod candidates be represented as x

If 1,240 voters support the candidate,

how many voters participated in the election in all?

Hence,

3/5 of x = 1240 voters.

3/5 × x = 1240

3x /5 = 1240

Cross Multiply

3x = 1240 × 5

x = 1240 × 5/3

x = 2066.6666667 voters

Approximately to the nearest whole number:

2067 voters

Answers

Answer:

2^3 * 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are the first several prime numbers: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23

To find the prime factorization of a number, start by dividing the number by the smallest prime number it is divisible by. Keep dividing by that prime number until you can't anymore. You only divide by prime numbers that divide evenly. Then move on to the next prime number that divides evenly, and do the same. You eventually will get to 1. Then you put together all the prime factors.

This is much easier to do than it sounds like in this explanation.

Start with 24.

24/2 = 12

12/2 = 6

6/2 = 3    3 is not divisible by 2, so we move on to 3.

3/3 = 1    We got to 1, so we are done.

The prime factorization is the product of all the prime numbers we divided by which are in bold.

24 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 3

Now we index it:

24 = 2^3 * 3

Answers

Answer:

m∠AOC = 15°m∠BOC = 15°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the angle ∠AOB

It is stated that CO is the angle bisector of ∠AOB.

Given that ∠AOB = 30°

As we know that the angle bisector bisects the angle into two equal angles.

Thus, the angle bisector CO bisects the angle ∠AOB into two equal angles, which are:

m∠AOCm∠BOC

as

∠AOB = 30°

Thus, the two formed angles i.e m∠AOC and m∠BOC by the angle bisector would be half of the angle bisector as the angle bisector bisects the angle ∠AOB into two equal angles.

Therefore,

m∠AOC = 15°m∠BOC = 15°

how do you find the perpendicular distance between a line segment and a point? (photo attached) i’m stuck

Answers

Answer:

Exact Distance = [tex]\frac{4\sqrt{10}}{5}[/tex]

Approximate Distance = 2.529822

============================================

Explanation:

This process is quite involved if you don't know the shortcut formula. I'll go over the long method first, and then show the shortcut in the next section.

First we'll need the equation of the line through points O and M. Use of the slope formula will show line OM has slope -1/3, which you are correct in stating.

Then use point slope form to determine the equation of line OM is y = (-1/3)x+11/3. This converts to the standard form x+3y = 11.

For anything in the form Ax+By = C, the equation perpendicular to this is of the form Bx-Ay = D. The A,B coefficients swap, and one item is negated. This helps form the negative reciprocal slope needed for the perpendicular line.

Compare x+3y = 11 to Ax+By = C. We see that A = 1 and B = 3.

So Bx-Ay = D turns into 3x-y = D. Then plug in the coordinates of H(-3,2) and compute to get

3x-y = 3(-3)-2 = -9-2 = -11. So D = -11

The equation 3x-y = D turns into 3x-y = -11 which is the equation of the line through point H and this line is perpendicular to line OM.

At this point, we have this system of equations

x+3y = 11

3x-y = -11

Solve that system however you wish. Substitution may be the best choice. Doing so leads to the intersection point (-2.2, 4.4)

The last step is to apply the distance formula between the points H(-3,2) and the intersection point (-2.2, 4.4)

The distance you should get is [tex]\frac{4\sqrt{10}}{5} \approx 2.529822[/tex]

I'm skipping steps because listing everything out would take up way too much space in my opinion.

--------------------------------------------------------

The first section goes over a fairly lengthy process of finding the perpendicular distance. Luckily, there's a shortcut.

Consider an equation of the form Ax+By=C, aka standard form. Now consider a point P located at (m,n) that is not on the line Ax+By = C. We can find the distance from P to the line using this formula below

[tex]d = \frac{|Am+Bn-C|}{\sqrt{A^2+B^2}}[/tex]

In this case, A = 1, B = 3 and C = 11 found back in the previous section. So you'll still need to calculate the equation of line OM.

Also, we'll use (m,n) = (-3,2) which are the coordinates of point H

From here it's a fairly straightforward computation

[tex]d = \frac{|Am+Bn-C|}{\sqrt{A^2+B^2}}\\\\d = \frac{|1*(-3)+3*2-11|}{\sqrt{(1)^2+(3)^2}}\\\\d = \frac{|-8|}{\sqrt{1+9}}\\\\d = \frac{8}{\sqrt{10}}\\\\[/tex]

Optionally we can rationalize the denominator like so

[tex]d = \frac{8}{\sqrt{10}}\\\\d = \frac{8\sqrt{10}}{\sqrt{10}\sqrt{10}}\\\\d = \frac{8\sqrt{10}}{\sqrt{10*10}}\\\\d = \frac{8\sqrt{10}}{\sqrt{100}}\\\\d = \frac{8\sqrt{10}}{10}\\\\d = \frac{2*4\sqrt{10}}{2*5}\\\\d = \frac{4\sqrt{10}}{5}\\\\d \approx 2.529822\\\\[/tex]

There are different ways to write down the answer, but they all represent the same number.

Two brothers, Michael and Alan, were in a bowling league that met once a
week. From past experiences, it is known that both brothers' scores are
approximately normally distributed where Michael has a mean score of 150
with a standard deviation of 30, and Alan has a mean score of 165 with a
standard deviation of 15. Assuming that their scores are independent, which
of the following values is closest to the probability that Michael will have a
greater core than Alan in a single game?
0.16
0.28
0.31
0.33
0.37

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

0.28

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mean score for Michael, [tex]\bar x _1[/tex] = 150

The standard deviation, σ₁ = 30

The mean score for Alan,  [tex]\bar x _2[/tex] = 165

The standard deviation, σ₂ = 15

Taking n₁ = n₂ = 1

[tex]z=\dfrac{(\bar{x}_{1}-\bar{x}_{2})-(\mu_{1}-\mu _{2} )}{\sqrt{\dfrac{\sigma_{1}^{2} }{n_{1}}-\dfrac{\sigma _{2}^{2}}{n_{2}}}}[/tex]

Taking μ₁ - μ₂ = 0

[tex]z=\dfrac{(150-165)}{\sqrt{\dfrac{30^{2} }{1}-\dfrac{15^{2}}{1}}} \approx -0.577[/tex]

The p-value for a z-score of -0.577 from the z-table is 0.28434

Therefore, the probability that Michael, with mean score, [tex]\bar x _1[/tex] = 150 will have a greater score than Alan, with a mean score of [tex]\bar x _2[/tex] = 165 is 0.28434 ≈ 0.28

Therefore, the correct option is 0.28

find the mean median and mode of the data set :15,11,14,10,12,15,15

Answers

Answer:

Mean = 13.14, Median = 14, Mode = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is the numbers added together divided by the number of numbers

15 + 11 + 14 + 10 + 12 + 15 + 15 = 92

92 / 7 = About 13.14

The median is the middle of the numbers ordered from least to greatest

10 11 12 14 15 15 15

14 is in the middle so that is the median.

The mode is the number showing up the most.

15 shows up 3 times so it is the mode.
