Answer:
[tex]P(\overline X < 2.3) = 0.9999[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
mean = 2
standard deviation = 0.5
sample size = 50
The probability that the sample mean is less than 2.3 hours is :
[tex]P(\overline X < 2.3) = P(Z \leq \dfrac{\overline x - \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}})[/tex]
[tex]P(\overline X < 2.3) = P(Z \leq \dfrac{2.3 - 2.0}{\dfrac{0.5}{\sqrt{50}}})[/tex]
[tex]P(\overline X < 2.3) = P(Z \leq \dfrac{0.3}{0.07071})[/tex]
[tex]P(\overline X < 2.3) = P(Z \leq 4.24268)[/tex]
[tex]P(\overline X < 2.3) = P(Z \leq 4.24)[/tex]
From z tables;
[tex]P(\overline X < 2.3) = 0.9999[/tex]

Suppose a car depreciates linearly the second you drive it off the lot. If you purchased the car for $31,500 and after 5 years the car is worth $20,500, find the slope of the depreciation line.
Answer: m = - 2200
Step-by-step explanation: Slope of a line is a number which describes the steepness and direction of a linear graph. It is represented by the letter m.
The year a car is bought and its price means:
f(0) = 31,500
Five years later, the price is $20,500, i.e.:
f(5) = 20,500
With these two pairs of value, slope is calculated as:
[tex]m = \frac{y-y_{0}}{x-x_{0}}[/tex]
[tex]m = \frac{20500-31500}{5-0}[/tex]
[tex]m = \frac{- 1100}{5}[/tex]
m = - 2200
The slope of the depreciation line is m = -2200 and it is negative because the line decreases along time.

A fisherman uses a spring scale to weigh a tilapia fish. He records the fish weight as a kilograms and notices that the spring stretches b centimeters. Which expression represents the spring constant (1 =9.8 )? A). 980ab B). 9.8ab C). 9.8ab D). 980ab
Answer:
k = [tex]\frac{980a}{b}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Fisherman noticed a stretch in the spring = 'b' centimetres
Weight of the fish = a kilograms
If force applied on a spring scale makes a stretch in the spring then Hook's law for the force applied is,
F = kΔx
Where k = spring constant
Δx = stretch in the spring
F = weight applied
F = mg
Here 'm' = mass of the fish
g = gravitational constant
F = a(9.8)
= 9.8a
Δx = b centimetres = 0.01b meters
Therefore, 9.8a = k(0.01b)
k = [tex]\frac{9.8a}{0.01b}[/tex]
k = [tex]\frac{980a}{b}[/tex]
Therefore, spring constant of the spring will be determined by the expression, k = [tex]\frac{980a}{b}[/tex]
solve for x in the diagram below
Answer:
45
Step-by-step explanation:
Both angles (2x+45) and x together form a straight angle which measures 180 degrees.
Together should make you think of adding the angle measurements.
So we have that (2x+45)+x should be 180 degrees.
The equation we want to solve is:
(2x+45)+x=180
2x+45+x=180
(2x+x)+45=180
3x+45=180
3x=180-45
3x=135
x=135/3
x=45
Let's confirm that x is 45.
(2x+45) with x=45:
(2*45+45)
(3*45)
135
So (2x+45)+x at x=45 gives us:
135+45
180
Answer has been confirmed.
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{x = 45}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
=> [tex]x+2x+45 = 180[/tex] (Angles on a straight line add up to 180 degrees)
=> [tex]3x+45 = 180[/tex]
Subtracting 45 to both sides
=> 3x = 180-45
=> 3x = 135
Dividing both sides by 3
=> x = 45

16 sin4x
16sin4x = _____
Answer:
[tex]6-8cos2x+2cos4x[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
[tex]16sin^4 x[/tex]
We can write the given expression as
[tex]16(sin^2x \times sin^2 x)[/tex]
[tex]16(\frac{1-cos2x}{2})(\frac{1-cos2x}{2})[/tex]
By using the formula
[tex]sin^2\theta=\frac{1-cos2\theta}{2}[/tex]
[tex]4(1-cos2x)^2[/tex]
[tex]4(1-2cos2x+cos^2(2x)[/tex]
Using the identity
[tex](a-b)^2=a^2+b^2-2ab[/tex]
[tex]4(1-2cos2x+\frac{1+cos4x}{2})[/tex]
[tex]4-8cos2x+2+2cos4x[/tex]
[tex]6-8cos2x+2cos4x[/tex]
This is required expression.
In the following problem, the expression is the right side of the formula for cos (alpha - beta) with particular values for alpha and beta. cos (79 degree) cos (19 degree) + sin (79 degree) sin (19 degree)
Identify alpha and beta in each expression.
The value for alpha: degree
The value for beta: degree
Write the expression as the cosine of an angle. cos degree
Find the exact value of the expression. (Type an exact answer, using fraction, radicals and a rationalized denominator.)
Answer:
1. [tex]\alpha = 79[/tex] and [tex]\beta = 19[/tex]
2. [tex]cos(60)[/tex]
3. [tex]cos(60) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]cos(\alpha - \beta )[/tex]
[tex]cos(79)cos(19) + sin(79)sin(19)[/tex]
Solving for [tex]\alpha[/tex] and [tex]\beta[/tex]
In trigonometry;
[tex]cos(\alpha - \beta ) = cos\alpha\ cos\beta + sin\alpha\ sin\beta[/tex]
Equate the above expression to [tex]cos(79)cos(19) + sin(79)sin(19)[/tex]
[tex]cos(\alpha - \beta ) = cos\alpha\ cos\beta + sin\alpha\ sin\beta[/tex] and [tex]cos(\alpha - \beta ) = cos(79)cos(19) + sin(79)sin(19)[/tex]
By comparison
[tex]cos\alpha\ cos\beta + sin\alpha\ sin\beta = cos(79)cos(19) + sin(79)sin(19)[/tex]
Compare expression on the right hand side to the left hand side
[tex]cos\alpha\ cos\beta = cos(79)cos(19) \\\\ sin\alpha\ sin\beta = sin(79)sin(19)[/tex]
This implies that
[tex]cos\alpha\ = cos(79)\\cos\beta = cos(19) \\\\ and\\\\sin\alpha\ = sin(79)\\sin\beta = sin(19)[/tex]
By further comparison
[tex]\alpha = 79[/tex] and [tex]\beta = 19[/tex]
Substitute [tex]\alpha = 79[/tex] and [tex]\beta = 19[/tex] in [tex]cos(\alpha - \beta )[/tex]
[tex]cos(\alpha - \beta ) = cos(79 - 19)[/tex]
[tex]cos(\alpha - \beta ) = cos(60)[/tex]
Hence, the expression is [tex]cos(60)[/tex]
Solving for the exact values;
Express [tex]cos(60)[/tex] as a difference of angles
[tex]cos(60) = cos(90 - 30)[/tex]
Recall that [tex]cos(\alpha - \beta ) = cos\alpha\ cos\beta + sin\alpha\ sin\beta[/tex]
So;
[tex]cos(90- 30 ) = cos(90) cos(30) + sin(90) sin(30)[/tex]
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In trigonometry;
[tex]cos(90) = 0[/tex]; [tex]cos(30) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{{2}}[/tex]; [tex]sin(90) = 1[/tex]; [tex]sin(30) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex];
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
[tex]cos(90- 30 ) = cos(90) cos(30) + sin(90) sin(30)[/tex] becomes
[tex]cos(90- 30 ) = 0 * \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} + 1 * \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]cos(90- 30 ) = 0 + \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]cos(90- 30 ) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Hence;
[tex]cos(60) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Samantha has 5 granola bars. She wants to give 1/3 of a granola bar to each friend. Which expression can she use to find the number of friends to whom she can give granola bars?
Answer:
5/(1/3)
Step-by-step explanation:
She has 5 granola bars and gives 1/3 of one to each of her friends. To find how many friends she can give it to, divide 5 by 1/3. You would get a total of 15 friends that you can give granola bars to. The question is asking for an expression so the expression would be 5/(1/3) or 5*3
Answer:
1/3 x = 5
x=15
Step-by-step explanation:
You’re multiplying 1/3 times the number of friends (x), and then multiplying both sides by the reciprocal to solve for x
The population of fruit flies in a laboratory grows geometrically and is checked everyday at noon. If the population began with 80 fruit flies and reached 125 in two days, what is the population after 4 days?
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{195}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The fruit flies grows geometrically.
[tex]125=80k^2[/tex]
Find the value of k.
[tex]\sqrt{\frac{125}{80} } =k[/tex]
[tex]1.25=k[/tex]
[tex]P=80(1.25)^t[/tex]
[tex]t[/tex] is number of days.
[tex]P=80(1.25)^4[/tex]
[tex]P=195[/tex]
The chart below lists the original and sale prices of items at a clothing store.
Clothing Prices
Original price Sale price
$7.99

$10.99
$7.69
$12.99
$9.09
$15.99
$11.19
$24.99
$17.49
$29.99
$20.99
Which statement best describes why the sale price is a function of the original price?
As the original price increases, the sale price also increases.
The sale price is always less than the original price.
For every original price, there is exactly one sale price.
The sales price is never less than zero.
Answer: C) For every original price, there is exactly one sale price.
For any function, we always have any input go to exactly one output. The original price is the input while the output is the sale price. If we had an original price of say $100, and two sale prices of $90 and $80, then the question would be "which is the true sale price?" and it would be ambiguous. This is one example of how useful it is to have one output for any input. The input in question must be in the domain.
As the table shows, we do not have any repeated original prices leading to different sale prices.
Answer:
C STAY SAFE!!!
Step-by-step explanation:
Ok we know this cant be A the reason is It says tha the original price is increasing so thats FALSE... its trying to trick you so no
The second choice says The sale price is always less than the original price. well take a look at the sale prices are they? Obiously not so False
Ok the third option For every original price, there is exactly one sale price. well this is true ask yourself each it helps.
Last option The sales price is never less than zero. erm FALSE OBIOUSLY THIS IS TRUE JUST NOT TRUE ITS WRONG
THE ANSER IS C
PLEASE HELP ASAP!! Write a polynomial f(x) that satisfies the following conditions. Polynomial of lowest degree with zeros of -4 (multiplicity of 1), 2 (multiplicity of 3), and with f(0)=64
Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
So, we have the zeros -4 with a multiplicity of 1, zeros 2 with a multiplicity of 3, and f(0)=64.
Recall that if something is a zero, then the equation must contain (x - n), where n is that something. In other words, for a polynomial with a zero of -4 with a multiplicity of 1, then (x+4)^1 must be a factor.
Therefore, (x-2)^3 (multiplicity of 3) must also be a factor.
Lastly, f(0)=64 tells that when x=0, f(x)=64. Don't simply add 64 (like what I did, horribly wrong). Instead, to keep the zeros constant, we need to multiply like this:
In other words, we will have:
[tex]f(x)=(x+4)(x-2)^3\cdot n[/tex], where n is some value.
Let's determine n first. We know that f(0)=64, thus:
[tex]f(0)=64=4(-2)^3\cdot n[/tex]
[tex]64=-32n, n=-2[/tex]
Now, let's expand:
Expand:
[tex]f(x)=(x+4)(x^2-4x+4)(x-2)(-2)[/tex]
[tex]f(x)=(x^2+2x-8)(x^2-4x+4)(-2)[/tex]
[tex]f(x)=(x^4-4x^3+4x^2+2x^3-8x^2+8x-8x^2+32x-32)(-2)[/tex]
[tex]f(x)=-2x^4+4x^3+24x^2-80x+64[/tex]
This is the simplest it can get.

a minimum?
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
differentiate using the power rule.
[tex]\frac{d}{dx}[/tex]( a[tex]x^{n}[/tex] ) = na[tex]x^{n-1}[/tex] , thus
[tex]\frac{d}{dx}[/tex](x² - x + 3 ) = 2x - 1
x = 5 → 2(5) - 1 = 10 - 1 = 9
To find the value of x for minimum , equate [tex]\frac{d}{dx}[/tex] to zero
2x - 1 = 0 , then
2x = 1 and

A random sample of 144 observations produced a sample proportion of 0.4. An approximate 90% confidence interval for the population proportion p is between:_______
a) 0.320 and 0.480
b) 0.333 and 0.480
c) 0.333 and 0.467
d) 0.359 and 0.441
e) 0.313 and 0.487
Answer:
CI =(0.333, 0.480)
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for calculating the confidence interval is expressed as shown;
CI = p±Z * √p(1-p)/n±0.5/n
Z is the z-score at 90% confidence
p is the sample proportion
n is the sample size
Given n = 144, p = 0.4 and z-score at 90% CI = 1.645 (from z table)
Substituting this values;
CI = p ± 1.645*√0.4(1-0.4)/144 ±0.5/n
CI = 0.4 ± 1.645*√0.4(0.6)/144 ± 0.5/144
CI = 0.4 ±1.645 * √0.24/144 ± 0.00347
CI = 0.4 ±1.645 * 0.04087± 0.00347
CI = 0.4±0.06723±0.00347
CI =(0.333, 0.480)
taking a test- Which expression represents the surface area of the cone? A cone with diameter 12 inches, height 8 inches, and slant height 10 inches. S A = pi r l + pi r squared (pi) (6) (10) + (pi) (6 squared) (pi) (8) (10) + (pi) (8 squared) (pi) (12) (10) + (pi) (12 squared) (pi) (10) (12) + (pi) (10 squared)
Answer:
[tex]SA = \pi (6) * 10+\pi ( 6)^2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The surface area of a cone is given by
[tex]SA = \pi rl +\pi r^2[/tex]
r is the radius and l is the slant height.
The diameter is 12 inches, the radius is 12/2 = 6 inches.
The slant height is 10 inches.
[tex]SA = \pi (6) * 10+\pi ( 6)^2[/tex]
Answer:
SA of cone = [tex](\pi )(6)(8) + (\pi )(6)^2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Surface Area of cone = [tex]\pi rh+\pi r^2[/tex]
Where r = 6 inches (Diameter = 12 inches) , h = 8 inches (We'll not consider the slant height)
SA of cone = [tex](\pi )(6)(8) + (\pi )(6)^2[/tex]
what is the value of this expression when a = 2 and b = -3 ? a^3 - b^3 / 5
Answer:
13 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
a = 2 and b = -3
so the question asks whats.... a^3 - b^3/5
First we plug in the values of a and b
(2)^3 - (-3)^3 /5
Now we solve the ones in paranthesis first
(2)^3 = 8 because 2×2×2 and
-(-3)^3 forget about the - outside the parenthesis so
(-3)^3 = (-27) because (-3)×(-3)×(-3)
now we put it back together
8 -(-27)/5
the two minus become plus so
8 + 27/5
Now we solve it like fractions
8 and 27/5
simplify
13 and 2/5

Researchers at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have been studying the decay pattern of a new virus with a decay rate of 22% per hour. They start with 500 viruses that they want to check on in the next 8 hours. How many viruses will they find in 8 hours? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
Answer:
They will find 69 viruses in 8 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of viruses after t hours is given by the following equation:
[tex]V(t) = V(0)(1-r)^{t}[/tex]
In which V(0) is the initial number of viruses and r is the decay rate, as a decimal.
They start with 500 viruses
This means that [tex]V(0) = 500[/tex]
Decay rate of 22% per hour.
This means that [tex]r = 0.22[/tex]
So
[tex]V(t) = V(0)(1-r)^{t}[/tex]
[tex]V(t) = 500(1-0.22)^{t}[/tex]
[tex]V(t) = 500(0.78)^{t}[/tex]
How many viruses will they find in 8 hours?
This is V(8).
[tex]V(t) = 500(0.78)^{t}[/tex]
[tex]V(8) = 500(0.78)^{8}[/tex]
[tex]V(8) = 68.51[/tex]
Rounding to the nearest whole number
They will find 69 viruses in 8 hours.
Answer:
The researchers will find 86 viruses.
Step-by-step explanation:
Identify the value of each variable in the formula. Be sure to put the percent in decimal form. Be sure the units match—the rate is per hour and the time is in hours.
A =?
A0 = 500
R= -0.22/hour
t= 8 hours
Substitute the values in the formula.
A= A0e^rt
A= 500e^-0.22x8
Compute the amount.
A ≈ 86.02
Round to the nearest whole number.
A ≈ 86

The simple interest on a sum of money invested at 5% per annum for 3 years was $90. The sum of money invested was
Answer:
Sum of money = $600
Step-by-step explanation:
X = sum of money
Simple interest means that its the same percentage of interest for a given number of years.
The interest per annum is 5% for 3 years, so 5% x 3 = 15%
15% = 0.15 (as a decimal)
Now, we can put this into an equation:
0.15x = 90
x = 90 / 0.15
x = 600.
sum of money invested = $600
how many solutions if both slopes are the same but the y-intercepts are different
Answer:
No solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
You will only have solutions when the two lines meet. But since the slopes are the same, the two lines are parallel. Since the y-intercepts are different, that means that the two slopes will never intersect, which means that there are no solutions.
Hope this helps!
Answer: no solution
Step-by-step explanation: When lines have the same slope, the graphs of the two lines are parallel which means they never intersect.
Let's look at an example.
Below, you will see two equations.
Both of the lines have a slope of 1.
So, they must be parallel which means they don't cross.
So there is no solution.

Find y................
Answer:
[tex] y = 3 [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the above right angled triangle, we would use a trigonometric ratio formula to find y.
Given angle = 30°
Hypotenuse = 6
Opposite side = y
Solve for y using the trigonometric ratio formula as follows:
[tex] sin(X) = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} [/tex]
[tex] sin(30) = \frac{y}{6} [/tex]
Multiply both sides by 6
[tex] sin(30)*6 = \frac{y}{6}*6 [/tex]
[tex] 0.5*6 = y [/tex]
[tex] 3 = y [/tex]
[tex] y = 3 [/tex]

Answer:A square root of a number is a value that, when multiplied by itself, gives the number. Example: 4 × 4 = 16, so a square root of 16 is 4. Note that (−4) × (−4) = 16 too, so −4 is also a square root of 16. The symbol is √ which always means the positive square root. Example: √36 = 6 (because 6 x 6 = 36)
plzzzz solve the second one
Answer:
x=10/3
Step-by-step explanation:
isolate the variable
Answer:
1. x = 4
2. x = 10/3
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 3x - 5 = 3 + x
3x - x = 3 + 5
2x = 8
x = 4
2. x/2 + 5/9 = 2x/3
(x/2 + 5/9) * 18 = (2x/3) * 18
9x + 10 = 12x
10 = 12x - 9x
10 = 3x
x = 10/3
WHY CAN'T ANYONE HELP ME? Twice last month, Judy Carter rented a car in Fresno, California, and traveled around the Southwest on business. The car rental agency rents its cars for a daily fee, plus an additional charge per mile driven. Judy recalls that her first trip lasted 4 days, she drove 440 miles, and the rental cost her $286. On her second business trip she drove 190 miles in 3 days, and paid $165.50 for the rental. Find the daily fee and the mileage charge.
Answer:
The daily rate is $33 and the per mile rate is $0.35
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 440y = 286
3x + 190y = 165.5
We can solve this systems of equations by multiplying the second statement by [tex]-\frac{4}{3}[/tex] to try and eliminate the x variable.
4x + 440y = 286
-4x - [tex]\frac{760}{3}[/tex]y = -220[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{560}{3}[/tex] y= [tex]\frac{196}{3}[/tex]
560y = 196
y = 0.35
So, the rate per mile is 0.35. Now, with this info, let's find the daily rate by plugging it into the equation.
[tex]4x + 440\cdot0.35 = 286\\4x + 154 = 286\\4x = 132\\x = 33[/tex]
So, the daily rate is $33 and the mile rate is $0.35.
Hope this helped!
Answer:
the daily fee =33 dollars
and the mileage charge.=0.35
let d: be daily fee and m for mileage
cost of rental =(d*number of days)+ (m*number of mileage)
her first trip: 4d+440m=286
her second trip: 3d+190m=165.5
solve by addition and elimination
4d+440m=286 ⇒ multiply by 3 ⇒12d +1320m=(3)286
3d+190m=165.5⇒ multiply by 4⇒12d+190(4)m=4(165.5)
12d+1320m=858
12d+760m=662
subtract two equation to eliminate d
12d+1320m-12d-760m=858-662
560m=196
m=7/20=0.35 for on mileage
d: 4d+440m=286
4d=286-440(0.35)
d=(286-154)/4 33 dollars
