A roofing contractor purchases a shingle delivery truck with a shingle elevator for $42,000. The vehicle requires an average expenditure of $9.50 per hour for fuel and maintenance, and the operator is paid $11.50 per hour. Write a linear equation giving the total cost C of operating this equipment for t hours. (Include the purchase cost of the equipment.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]T(t) = 42000 + 21t[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two costs for the operation of the equipment, the purchase cost and the hourly cost. The total cost is the sum of these two costs:

So

[tex]T = F_{c} + H_{c}[/tex]

In which [tex]F_{c}[/tex] is the fixed cost and [tex]H_{c}[/tex] is the hourly cost.

Fixed cost

A roofing contractor purchases a shingle delivery truck with a shingle elevator for $42,000. This means that the fixed cost is 42000. So [tex]F_{c} = 42000[/tex]

Hourly cost

The vehicle requires an average expenditure of $9.50 per hour for fuel and maintenance, and the operator is paid $11.50 per hour. So for each hour, there are expenses of 9.5 + 11.5 = $21.

So the hour cost is

[tex]H_{c}(t) = 21t[/tex]

In which t is the number of hours

Total cost

[tex]T = F_{c} + H_{c}[/tex]

[tex]T(t) = 42000 + 21t[/tex]

A box contains 11 two-inch screws, of which 4 have a Phillips head and 7 have a regular head. Suppose that you select 3 screws randomly from the box with replacement. Find the probability there will be more than one Phillips head screw.

Answers

Answer:

The probability that there will be more than one Phillips head screw = 0.1803 .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that there are 11 two-inch screws in a box of which 4 have a Phillips head and 7 have a regular head.

We are selecting 3 screws randomly from the box with replacement, so the probability that there will be more than one Phillips head screw is given by :

Probability of selecting two Phillips head screw.Probability of selecting three Phillips head screw.

Now P(selecting 2 Phillips head screw with replacement) is given by :

 Selecting 2 Phillip head screw = [tex]\frac{4}{11}[/tex] *  [tex]\frac{4}{11}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{16}{121}[/tex]

      P(selecting three Phillips head screw) = [tex]\frac{4}{11}[/tex] *  [tex]\frac{4}{11}[/tex] *  [tex]\frac{4}{11}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{64}{1331}[/tex]

Therefore, Probability that there will be more than one Phillips head screw

                        =   [tex]\frac{16}{121}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{64}{1331}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{240}{1331}[/tex] = 0.1803 .

g If there are 52 cards in a deck with four suits (hearts, clubs, diamonds, and spades), how many ways can you select 5 diamonds and 3 clubs?

Answers

Answer:

The number of ways to select 5 diamonds and 3 clubs is 368,082.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a standard deck of 52 cards there are 4 suits each consisting of 13 cards.

Compute the probability of selecting 5 diamonds and 3 clubs as follows:

The number of ways of selecting 0 cards from 13 hearts is:

[tex]{13\choose 0}=\frac{13!}{0!\times(13-0)!} =\frac{13!}{13!}=1[/tex]

The number of ways of selecting 3 cards from 13 clubs is:

[tex]{13\choose 3}=\frac{13!}{3!\times(13-3)!} =\frac{13!}{13!\times10!}=286[/tex]

The number of ways of selecting 5 cards from 13 diamonds is:

[tex]{13\choose 5}=\frac{13!}{5!\times(13-5)!} =\frac{13!}{13!\times8!}=1287[/tex]

The number of ways of selecting 0 cards from 13 spades is:

[tex]{13\choose 0}=\frac{13!}{0!\times(13-0)!} =\frac{13!}{13!}=1[/tex]

Compute the number of ways to select 5 diamonds and 3 clubs as:

[tex]{13\choose0}\times{13\choose3}\times{13\choose5}\times{13\choose0} = 1\times286\times1287\times1=368082[/tex]

Thus, the number of ways to select 5 diamonds and 3 clubs is 368,082.

The following histogram presents the amounts of silver (in parts per million) found in a sample of rocks. One rectangle from the histogram is missing. What is its height?

Answers

Answer:

The height of the missing rectangle is 0.15

Explanation:

The image attached has the mentioned histogram.

Such histogram presents the relative frequencies for the clases [0,1], [1,2],[2,3], [4,5], and [5,6] Silver in ppm.

Only the rectangle for the class [3,4] is missing.

The height of each rectangle is the relative frequency of the corresponding class.

The relative frequencies must add 1, because each relative frequency is calculated dividing the absolute class frequency by the total number in the sample; hence, the sum of all the relative frequencies is equal to the total absolute class frequencies divided by the same number, yielding 1.

In consequence, you can sum all the known relative frequencies and subtract from 1 to get the missing relative frequency, which is the height of the missing rectangle.

1. Sum of the known relative frequencies:

0.2 + 0.3 + 0.15 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 0.85

2. Missing frequency:

1 - 0.85 = 0.15

3. Conclusion:

The height of the missing rectangle is 0.15

Find the balance of $6,000 deposited at 6% compounded semi-annually for 3 years

Answers

Answer:

The balance will be $7,164.31.

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound interest formula is given by:

[tex]A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]

Where A is the amount of money, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per unit t and t is the time the money is invested or borrowed for.

In this problem, we have that:

[tex]P = 6000, r = 0.06[/tex]

Semi-annually is twice a year, so [tex]n = 2[/tex]

We want to find A when [tex]t = 3[/tex]

[tex]A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]

[tex]A = 6000(1 + \frac{0.06}{2})^{2*3}[/tex]

[tex]A = 7164.31[/tex]

The balance will be $7,164.31.

(C) (-3, 6) and (6.-9)

(D) (-2, 1) and (3,-2)

(E) (0, 2) and (5,5)

Answer:

Options (A) and (D)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A line with slope (m) = [tex]-\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

Now, a parallel line to the given line will have the same slope.

So, let us check each of the given options.

Option (A)

(-8, 8) and (2, 2)

The slope of line passing through two points [tex](x_1,y_1)\ and\ (x_2,y_2)[/tex] is given as:

[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Now, the slope of a line passing through (-8, 8) and (2, 2) is given as:

[tex]m_1=\frac{2-8}{2-(-8)}=\frac{-6}{10}=-\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

So, [tex]m=m_1[/tex]

Therefore, option (A) is correct.

Option (B): (-5, -1) and (0, 2)

The slope of a line passing through (-5, -1) and (0, 2) is given as:

[tex]m_2=\frac{2-(-1)}{0-(-5)}=\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

So, [tex]m\ne m_2[/tex]

Therefore, option (B) is not correct.

Option (C): (-3, 6) and (6, -9)

The slope of a line passing through (-3, 6) and (6, -9) is given as:

[tex]m_3=\frac{-9-6}{6-(-3)}=\frac{-15}{9}=-\frac{5}{3}\ne m[/tex]

Therefore, option (C) is not correct.

Option (D): (-2, 1) and (3, -2)

The slope of a line passing through (-2, 1) and (3, -2) is given as:

[tex]m_4=\frac{-2-1}{3-(-2)}=-\frac{3}{5}=m[/tex]

Therefore, option (D) is correct.

Option (E): (0, 2) and (5, 5)

The slope of a line passing through (0, 2) and (5, 5) is given as:

[tex]m_5=\frac{5-2}{5-0}=\frac{3}{5}\ne m[/tex]

Therefore, option (E) is not correct.

Hence, only options (A) and (D) are correct.

A 200-liter tank initially full of water develops a leak at the bottom. Given that 30% of the water leaks out in the first 5 minutes, find the amount of water left in the tank 10 minutes after the leak develops if the water drains off at a rate that is proportional to the amount of water present.

Answers

Answer:

the amount of water that is left in the tank after 10 min is 98 L

Step-by-step explanation:

since the water drains off at rate that is proportional to the water present

(-dV/dt) = k*V , where k= constant

(-dV/V) = k*dt

-∫dV/V) = k*∫dt

-ln V/V₀=k*t

or

V= V₀*e^(-k*t) , where V₀= initial volume

then since V₁=0.7*V₀ at t₁= 3 min

-ln V₁/V₀=k*t₁

then for t₂= 10 min we have

-ln V₂/V₀=k*t₂

dividing both equations

ln (V₂/V₀) / ln (V₁/V₀) =(t₂/t₁)

V₂/V₀ = (V₁/V₀)^(t₂/t₁)

V₂=V₀ *  (V₁/V₀)^(t₂/t₁)

replacing values

V₂=V₀ *  (V₁/V₀)^(t₂/t₁)  = 200 L * (0.7)^(10min/5min) = 98 L

then the amount of water that is left in the tank after 10 min is 98 L

Final answer:

The problem represents a case of exponential decay. Initially, 30% of water, or 60 liters, leaks out in 5 minutes, leaving 140 liters in the tank. Assuming the same rate of leakage, another 30% of water or 42 liters will leak out in the next 5 minutes, leaving 98 liters in the tank after 10 minutes.

Explanation:

In this problem, we are dealing with a situation involving exponential decay due to the water leakage which happens at a rate proportional to the amount of water present in the tank.

First, let's consider the 30% of water that leaks out in the first 5 minutes from a 200-liter tank. This amounts to 60 liters (200 * 0.30), which leaves 140 liters (200 - 60) of water in the tank after 5 minutes.

Now, since the decrease of water is proportional to the amount of water present, this implies an exponential decay over time. Given that the amount of water decreased by 30% in the first 5 minutes, it's reasonable to assume that it will decrease by the same percentage in the next 5 minutes as well.

So, the amount of water left in the tank after 10 minutes would be 98 liters (140 * 0.70).

In the equations above,b and c represent the price per pound,in dollars, of beef and chicken,respectively,x weeks after July 1 of last summer.What was the price per pound of beef when it was equal to the price per pound of chicken?

A.2.60
B.2.85
C.2.95
D.3.35

Answers

Answer:

D. 3.35

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to form an equation and solve it to find the number of weeks when the prices were the same. Because the prices were the same we can say that b = c, and therefore form the equation:

2.35 + 0.25x = 1.75 + 0.4x - Now we nee to solve it and find x.

2.35 - 1.75 = 0.4x - 0.25x

0.6 = 0.15x

x = 0.6 ÷ 0.15

x = 4 weeks

So now we substitute x into the equation for beef and find the price.

b = 2.35 + (0.25 × 4)

b = 2.35 + 1

b = $3.35 per pound

The price per pound of beef when it was equal to the price of chicken is $3.35 per pound.

The prices of beef and chicken are represented by the following linear equations :

Price of beef, B :

B = 2.35 + 0.25x

Price of chicken, C :

C = 1.75 + 0.40x

Where x in both equations represents x weeks after July 1 of last summer :

Firstly :

We find the week in which the price of beef and chicken are the same :

Beef = Chicken

2.35 + 0.25x = 1.75 + 0.40x

We solve for x

2.35 - 1.75 = 0.40x - 0.25x

0.60 = 0.15x

x = 0.60 / 0.15

x = 4

Therefore, 4 weeks after July 1 of last summer, the price of beef and chicken were the same.

Therefore, the price per pound of beef in the 4th week is :

B = 2.35 + 0.25(4)

B = 2.35 + 1

B = 3.35

The price per pound of beef when it was equal to the price of chicken is $3.35 per pound.

What odds should a person give in favor of the following events? (a) A card chosen at random from a 52-card deck is an ace. (b) Two heads will turn up when a coin is tossed twice. (c) Boxcars (two sixes) will turn up when two dice are rolled

Answers

Answer:

(a) 7.69%

(b) 25%

(c) 2.78%

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

In a deck of 52 cards there are 4 aces.

The odds in favor or the probability of selecting an ace is:

[tex]P(Ace) = \frac{Number\ of\ aces}{Number\ of\ cards\ in\ total}\\ =\frac{4}{52}\\ =0.076923\\\approx7.69\%[/tex]

Thus, the probability of selecting an ace from a random deck of 562 cards is 7.69%.

(b)

The outcomes of each toss of a coin is independent of the other, since the result of the previous toss does not affect the result of the current toss.

The probability that both the tosses will end up in heads is:

[tex]P(2\ Heads)=P(1^{st}\ Head)\times P(2^{nd}\ Head)\\=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{2}\\ =\frac{1}{4}\\ =0.25\ or\ 25\%\\[/tex]

Thus, the probability that both the tosses will end up in heads is 25%.

(c)

The sample space of two dice consists of 36 outcomes in total.

Out of these 36 outcomes there is only 1 Boxcar, i.e. two sixes.

The probability of a boxcar when two dice are rolled is:

[tex]P(Boxcar)=\frac{Favorable\ outcomes}{Total\ no.\ of\ outcomes}\\= \frac{1}{36}\\ =0.027777\\\approx2.78\%[/tex]

Thus, the probability of a boxcar when two dice are rolled is 2.78%.

Final answer:

To find the odds in favor of specific events in probability theory, one must compare the number of successful outcomes to the number of unsuccessful ones. For selecting an ace from a deck of cards, the odds are 1:12; for getting two heads from two coin tosses, the odds are 1:3; and for rolling two sixes with two dice, the odds are 1:35.

Explanation:

The question asks for the odds in favor of several different probabilistic events, which relate to the field of probability theory within mathematics. Here's how to calculate the odds for each of the requested scenarios:

(a) Odds in favor of a card being an ace: There are 4 aces in a standard 52-card deck. The odds in favor are the number of ways the event can occur (4 aces) to the number of ways the event can fail to occur (52 - 4 = 48 non-aces), which simplifies to 1:12.

(b) Odds in favor of two heads when a coin is tossed twice: The probability of getting a head on one coin toss is 1/2, and since the two tosses are independent, the probability of getting two heads is (1/2) * (1/2) = 1/4. The odds in favor are calculated by taking the probability of the event occurring (1 chance) against the probability of it not occurring (3 chances), which gives us odds of 1:3.

(c) Odds in favor of rolling boxcars (two sixes) with two dice: Each die has a 1/6 chance of rolling a six, so the probability of rolling two sixes is (1/6) * (1/6) = 1/36. The odds in favor are the number of successful outcomes (1) against the number of all other outcomes (35), resulting in odds of 1:35.

The criterion for rejecting the null hypothesis using the​ P-value approach is that if P-value < Level of significance , then we reject our null hypothesis i.e.  

Suppose P-value is 2.33% and Level of significance is 5%, then we will reject our null hypothesis as 2.33% < 5%.

On the other hand, if P-value > Level of significance , then we cannot reject or accept our null hypothesis.

Final answer:

A p-value is a measure of the strength of evidence against the null hypothesis in a statistical hypothesis test. The criterion for rejecting the null hypothesis using the p-value approach is to compare the calculated p-value to a predetermined significance level.

Explanation:

A p-value is a measure of the strength of evidence against the null hypothesis in a statistical hypothesis test. It represents the probability of observing a test statistic as extreme or more extreme than the one observed, assuming that the null hypothesis is true. In other words, it quantifies how likely it is for the observed data to have occurred by chance if the null hypothesis is true.

The criterion for rejecting the null hypothesis using the p-value approach is to compare the calculated p-value to a predetermined significance level (usually denoted as alpha). If the p-value is smaller than alpha, we reject the null hypothesis, indicating that there is enough evidence to support the alternative hypothesis. Alternatively, if the p-value is greater than or equal to alpha, we fail to reject the null hypothesis, suggesting that there is not enough evidence to support the alternative hypothesis.

Almost all medical schools in the United States require students to take the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT). A new version of the exam was introduced in spring 2015 and is intended to shift the focus from what applicants know to how well they can use what they know. One result of the change is that the scale on which the exam is graded has been modified, with the total score of the four sections on the test ranging from 472 to 528 . In spring 2015 the mean score was 500.0 with a standard deviation of 10.6 . Use Table A to find the answers to the two questions.

(a) What proportion of students taking the MCAT had a score over 519 ?
(b) Compute the proportion and then enter the answer as a percentage rounded to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

(a) The proportion of students taking the MCAT had a score over 519 is 0.0367.

(b) The percentage of students who scored more than 519 in the MCAT is 3.67%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the sample size or the number of students taking the MCAT in 2015 is large, the sampling distribution of scores follow a normal distribution.

Let X = score of a student

Given:

Mean = [tex]\mu=500[/tex]

Standard deviation = [tex]\sigma=10.6[/tex]

(a)

Compute the probability of students who scored more than 519 as follows:

[tex]P(X>519)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}> \frac{519-500}{10.6})\\=P(Z>1.7925)\\=1-P(Z<1.7925)[/tex]

Use the z-table to determine the probability.

[tex]P(X>519)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}> \frac{519-500}{10.6})\\=P(Z>1.7925)\\=1-P(Z<1.7925)\\=1-0.9633\\=0.0367[/tex]

Thus, the probability of students who scored more than 519 is 0.0367.

(b)

Convert the probability of students who scored more than 519 to percentage

[tex]=0.0367\times100\\=3.67\%[/tex]

Thus, the percentage of students who scored more than 519 is 3.67%.

Final answer:

The z-score for 519 is approximately 1.79, which correlates to about 3.67% of students scoring higher than 519.

Explanation:

To find the proportion of students scoring over 519 on the MCAT, first, we must calculate the z-score. The z-score tells us how many standard deviations an element is from the mean. Since the mean score is 500.0 and the standard deviation is 10.6, the z-score formula is z = (X - μ) / σ, where X is the score, μ is the mean, and σ is the standard deviation. For a score of 519, the z-score would be z = (519 - 500.0) / 10.6 ≈ 1.79. To find the proportion of students scoring above this z-score, we would look up the z-score in a standard normal distribution table (Table A), or use a statistical software to find that the area to the right of z=1.79. This area corresponds to the proportion of students scoring higher than 519. Since standard normal distribution tables are commonly used and we don't have one provided here, let's assume that the area to the right of z=1.79 is approximately 3.67%.

The route used by a certain motorist in commuting to work contains two intersections with traffic signals. The probability that he must stop at the first signal is 0.35, the analogous probability for the second signal is 0.55, and the probability that he must stop at at least one of the two signals is 0.75.
What is the probability that he must stop:

A. at both signals?
B. at the first signal but not at the second one?
C. at exactly one signal?

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.15

b) 0.2

c) 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

A: Stopping at first signal

B: Stopping at second signal

P(A) = 0.35

P(B) = 0.55

Probability that he must stop at at least one of the two signals is 0.75

[tex]P(A\cup B) = 0.75[/tex]

a) P(at both signals)

[tex]P(A\cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A\cap B)\\0.75 = 0.35 + 0.55 - P(A\cap B)\\P(A\cap B) = 0.35 + 0.55 - 0.75 = 0.15[/tex]

0.15 is the probability that motorist stops at both signals.

b) P(at the first signal but not at the second one)

[tex]P(A\cap B') = P(A) - P(A\cap B)\\P(A\cap B') = 0.35 - 0.15 = 0.2[/tex]

0.2 is the probability that motorist stops at the first signal but not at the second one.

c) P(at exactly one signal)

[tex]P(A\cap B') + P(A\cap 'B) = P(A\cup B) - P(A\cap B) \\P(A\cap B') + P(A\cap 'B) = 0.75 - 0.15 = 0.6[/tex]

0.6 is the probability that the motorist stops at exactly one signal.

Final answer:

To calculate various probabilities related to stopping at traffic signals, we use given values to determine a 15% chance of stopping at both signals, a 20% chance of stopping at the first but not the second, and a 60% chance of stopping at exactly one signal.

Explanation:

The question involves calculating probabilities of stopping at traffic signals. Given are the probabilities of stopping at the first (0.35) and second (0.55) signals, and the probability of stopping at at least one signal (0.75). Using these, we can find the probabilities for various scenarios.

A. Probability of stopping at both signals:

To find this, we use the formula: P(A and B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A or B). Here, P(A or B) is the probability of stopping at least at one signal, which is given as 0.75. Thus, the calculation would be 0.35 + 0.55 - 0.75 = 0.15. So, there is a 15% chance of stopping at both signals.

B. Probability of stopping at the first signal but not the second one:

This can be calculated by subtracting the probability of stopping at both signals from the probability of stopping at the first signal: 0.35 - 0.15 = 0.20. Therefore, there is a 20% chance of stopping at the first signal but not the second.

C. Probability of stopping at exactly one signal:

This involves adding the probabilities of stopping only at the first signal or only at the second signal. We've already calculated the first part as 0.20. For the second part, subtract the probability of stopping at both signals from stopping at the second signal: 0.55 - 0.15 = 0.40. Adding these together, 0.20 + 0.40 = 0.60, there is a 60% chance of stopping at exactly one signal.

At the dance recital, Ms. Deutsch needs seven parent volunteers to help students get on and off stage, plus four parent volunteers per room of students. On the day of the recital, Ms. Deutsch uses 39 parent volunteers. How many backstage rooms were there?

plz help Like now plz

Answers

Answer:

8 rooms

Step-by-step explanation:

39 - 7 = 32. 32/4 per room is 8 rooms.

Final answer:

The equation to find the number of backstage rooms needed is (Total volunteers - Stage volunteers) / Volunteers per room = Number of rooms. Using the values provided (39 - 7) / 4, we find that there were eight backstage rooms at the dance recital.

Explanation:

Ms. Deutsch needs seven parent volunteers to help students get on and off stage and four parent volunteers per backstage room. The total number of parent volunteers used on the day of the recital is 39. To find the number of backstage rooms, we subtract the seven parent volunteers required for stage assistance from the total, leaving us with 32 volunteers. We then divide this number by the four parent volunteers per room, resulting in eight backstage rooms.

Initial number of volunteers required for stage assistance: 7

Each room requires: 4 volunteers

Total volunteers: 39

Volunteers for rooms: 39-7 = 32

Number of rooms: 32 / 4 = 8

The diameter of the dot produced by a printer is normally distributed with a mean diameter of 0.002 inch and a standard deviation of 0.0004 inch. A. What is the probability that the diameter of a dot exceeds 0.0026 inch? B. What is the probability that a diameter is between 0.0014 and 0.0026? C. What standard deviation of diameters is needed so that the probability in part (b) is 0.995?

Answers

Answer:

(a) 0.06681

(b) 0.86638

(c)  [tex]\sigma[/tex] = 0.000214

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the diameter of the dot produced by a printer is normally distributed with a mean diameter of 0.002 inch and a standard deviation of 0.0004 inch i.e.;   [tex]\mu[/tex] = 0.002 inch        and        [tex]\sigma[/tex] = 0.0004

Also,   Z = [tex]\frac{X -\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] ~ N(0,1)

(a) Let X = diameter of a dot

    P(X > 0.0026 inch) = P( [tex]\frac{X -\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] > [tex]\frac{0.0026 -0.002}{0.0004}[/tex] ) = P(Z > 1.5) = 1 - P(Z <= 1.5)

                                                                          = 1 - 0.93319 = 0.06681

(b) P(0.0014 < X < 0.0026) = P(X < 0.0026) - P(X <= 0.0014)

    P(X < 0.0026) = P( [tex]\frac{X -\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{0.0026 -0.002}{0.0004}[/tex] ) = P(Z < 1.5) = 0.93319

    P(X <= 0.0014) = P( [tex]\frac{X -\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] <= [tex]\frac{0.0014 -0.002}{0.0004}[/tex] ) = P(Z <= -1.5) = 1 - P(Z <= 1.5)

                                                                     = 1 - 0.93319 = 0.06681

Therefore, P(0.0014 < X < 0.0026) = 0.93319 - 0.06681 = 0.86638 .

(c) P(0.0014 < X < 0.0026) = 0.995

    P( [tex]\frac{0.0014 -0.002}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{X -\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{0.0026 -0.002}{\sigma}[/tex] ) = 0.995

    P( [tex]\frac{ -0.0006}{\sigma}[/tex] < Z < [tex]\frac{0.0006}{\sigma}[/tex] ) = 0.995

    P(Z < [tex]\frac{0.0006}{\sigma}[/tex] ) - P(Z <= [tex]\frac{-0.0006}{\sigma}[/tex] ) = 0.995

    P(Z < [tex]\frac{0.0006}{\sigma}[/tex] ) - (1 - P(Z < [tex]\frac{0.0006}{\sigma}[/tex] ) ) = 0.995

     2 * P(Z < [tex]\frac{0.0006}{\sigma}[/tex] ) - 1 = 0.995

           P(Z < [tex]\frac{0.0006}{\sigma}[/tex] ) = 0.9975

On seeing the z table we observe that at critical value of x = 2.81 we get the probability area of 0.9975 i.e.;

                  [tex]\frac{0.0006}{\sigma}[/tex] = 2.81      ⇒  [tex]\sigma[/tex] = 0.000214

Therefore, 0.000214 standard deviation of diameters is needed so that the probability in part (b) is 0.995 .

The probabilities of obtaining a given diameter is found from the z-table,

given that the dot produced by the printer are normally distributed.

A. The probability that the diameter of a dot exceeds 0.0026 inch is 0.0668B. The probability that the diameter is between 0.0014 and 0.0026 inch is 0.8664C. The standard deviation needed for a probability of 0.995 is 2.135 × 10⁻⁴

Reasons:

The mean diameter, μ = 0.002

The standard deviation, σ = 0.0004

A. The probability that the diameter exceeds 0.0026 inch

Solution;

[tex]\displaystyle z-score,\ Z= \mathbf{\dfrac{x-\mu }{\sigma }}[/tex]

At x = 0.0026 inch, we have;

[tex]\displaystyle Z=\dfrac{0.0026-0.002 }{0.0004 } = 1.5[/tex]

P(Z > 1.5) = 1 - P(Z < 1.5) = 1 - 0.9332 = 0.0668

The probability that the diameter of a dot exceeds 0.0026 inch = 0.0668

B. The probability that the diameter is less than 0.0026 inch = 0.9332

The z-score for a diameter of x = 0.0014 inch is given as follows;

[tex]\displaystyle Z=\mathbf{\dfrac{0.0014-0.002 }{0.0004 }} = -1.5[/tex]

P(Z < -1.5) = 0.0668

Therefore, the probability that the diameter is between 0.0014 and 0.0026 inch is given as follows;

P(0.0014 < x < 0.0026) = 0.9332 - 0.0668 = 0.8664

The probability that the diameter is between 0.0014 and 0.0026 = 0.8664

C. For the probability in part (b) to be 0.995, we have;

For a probability of 0.995, the z-score ≈ 2.575

[tex]\displaystyle P\left(Z < \dfrac{0.0026-0.002 }{\sigma } \right)- P\left(Z < \dfrac{0.0014-0.002 }{\sigma } \right)= 0.995[/tex]

Therefore;

[tex]\displaystyle \mathbf{ P\left(Z < \dfrac{0.0026-0.002 }{\sigma } \right)} = 0.995 + \frac{1 - 0.995}{2} = 0.9975[/tex]

From the z-table, we get;

[tex]\displaystyle P\left(Z < \dfrac{0.0026-0.002 }{\sigma } \right) = 0.9975[/tex]

The z-score with a probability of 0.9975 = 2.81

Which gives;

[tex]\displaystyle \left( \dfrac{0.0026-0.002 }{\sigma } \right) = 2.81[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \sigma = \left( \dfrac{0.0026-0.002 }{2.81} \right) = \mathbf{2.135 \times 10^{-4}}[/tex]

The standard deviation of the diameters needed so that the probability in part (b) is 0.995 is 2.135 × 10⁻⁴

Assume that a cross is made between a heterozygous tall pea plant and a homozygous short pea plant. Fifty offspring are produced in the following frequency:30 = tall20 = shortNull hypothesis: The deviations from a 1:1 ratio (25 tall and 25 short) are due to chance.What is the Chi-square value associated with the appropriate test of significance?

Answers

Answer:

Chi-square value = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Frequency:      Tall     Short

                         30       20

Null hypothesis ( as it is already given so there is no difference between observed and expected values)

Ratio:    1:1 (50% expected frequency of each tall and short pea-plant)

Solution:

Phenotype  Observed  Expected O-E  (O-E)²  (O-E)[tex]^{2/E}[/tex]

                          O                  E

Short                20               25        -5       25        1

TOTAL                                                                       2

So, from all these calculations using expected and observed values we get chi-square value equal to 2.

Final answer:

To test the null hypothesis that the deviation from a 1:1 phenotypic ratio is due to chance in a cross between a heterozygous tall and a homozygous short pea plant, the Chi-square value is calculated to be 2.

Explanation:

The question relates to a cross between a heterozygous tall pea plant and a homozygous short pea plant, with the intention to calculate the Chi-square value to test the null hypothesis that the observed deviation from a 1:1 ratio is due to chance. In this scenario, the expectation is a 1:1 phenotypic ratio, meaning 25 tall and 25 short plants out of 50 offspring.

To calculate the Chi-square (χ²) value, the formula is χ² = Σ  ( (observed - expected)² / expected ), where Σ symbolizes the sum of calculations for each category. For tall plants, the calculation is ((30-25)² / 25) = (5² / 25) = 1 and for short plants, the calculation is ((20-25)² / 25) = (5² / 25) = 1. Therefore, the total χ² value is 1 + 1 = 2.

A survey reveals that each customer spends an average of 35 minutes with a standard deviation of 10 minutes in a department store. Assuming the distribution is normal, what is the probability a customer spends less than 30 minutes in the department store?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(X<30)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{30-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z<\frac{30-35}{10})=P(Z<-0.5)[/tex]

And we can find this probability using the normal standard table or excel and we got:

[tex]P(Z<-0.5)=0.309[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the time spent for each customer of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

[tex]X \sim N(35,10)[/tex]  

Where [tex]\mu=35[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=10[/tex]

We are interested on this probability

[tex]P(X<30)[/tex]

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

[tex]P(X<30)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{30-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z<\frac{30-35}{10})=P(Z<-0.5)[/tex]

And we can find this probability using the normal standard table or excel and we got:

[tex]P(Z<-0.5)=0.309[/tex]

And the excel code for this case would be : "=NORM.DIST(-0.5,0,1,TRUE)"

Final answer:

To calculate the probability that a customer spends less than 30 minutes in the store, we apply the Z score formula (Z = (X - μ)/σ), resulting in a Z score of -0.5. Using a Z-table, we find the corresponding probability to be approximately 30.85%.

Explanation:

This problem involves understanding the concept of a normal distribution, including the mean and standard deviation. The mean here is the average time customers spend in the store, which is 35 minutes, and the standard deviation is 10 minutes. The question is asking us to find the probability that a customer spends less than 30 minutes in the store.

We can calculate this using the concept of a Z score, which is given by the formula Z = (X - μ)/σ where X is the value we're interested in, μ is the mean, and σ is the standard deviation. Plugging in the values, we get Z = (30 - 35)/10 = -0.5. Looking this value up in a Z-table, we find that the probability a customer spends less than 30 minutes in the department store is approximately 0.3085, or 30.85%.

Two particles, A and B, are in uniform circular motion about a common center. The acceleration of particle A is 4.9 times that of particle B. The period of particle B is 2.4 times the period of particle A. The ratio of the radius of the motion of particle A to that of particle B is closest to

Answers

Final answer:

The ratio of the radius of particle A to that of particle B in uniform circular motion is approximately 2.437.

Explanation:

To find the ratio of the radius of particle A to that of particle B in uniform circular motion, let's first consider the equations of motion for uniform circular motion. The centripetal acceleration, a_c, is given by the equation a_c = v^2/r, where v is the velocity and r is the radius of the circle. The period of motion, T, is the time it takes for one complete revolution around the circle. Given that the acceleration of particle A is 4.9 times that of particle B, we can write the equation a_A = 4.9 * a_B. Also, the period of particle B is 2.4 times the period of particle A, so we can write the equation T_B = 2.4 * T_A.

Next, we can use the equations of motion to express the velocity and period in terms of the acceleration and radius. From the equation a_c = v^2/r, we can rearrange it to solve for v: v = sqrt(a_c * r). By substituting this expression for v into the equation T = 2 * pi * r / v, we can solve for the period T in terms of a_c and r. Plugging these expressions for the velocities and periods of particles A and B into the equations a_A = 4.9 * a_B and T_B = 2.4 * T_A, we can form an equation that relates the radii of the two particles: sqrt(a_A * r_A) = 4.9 * sqrt(a_B * r_B) and 2 * pi * r_B / sqrt(a_B * r_B) = 2.4 * (2 * pi * r_A / sqrt(a_A * r_A)). Simplifying these equations, we can solve for the ratio of the radii r_A/r_B and find that it is approximately 2.437.

Final answer:

To find the ratio of the radius of motion between particles A and B, we can use the equations of uniform circular motion and the given information. The ratio is approximately 2.21.

Explanation:

To find the ratio of the radius of motion between particles A and B, we need to analyze the given information. Let's denote the acceleration of particle B as aB and the acceleration of particle A as aA. We're told that aA is 4.9 times aB, and the period of particle B is 2.4 times the period of particle A.

From the equations of uniform circular motion, we know that the acceleration is given by a = (4π2)/T2, where T is the period. Since aA = 4.9aB and TB = 2.4TA, we can set up the following equation:

(4π2)/TA2 = 4.9(4π2)/TB2

After canceling out common terms, we'll find that (TA2) / (TB2) = 4.9. Taking the square root of both sides, we get TA / TB = √4.9 = 2.21. Since the period is inversely proportional to the angular velocity, we can conclude that the ratio of the radii of motion is approximately 2.21.

Answer:

a) Yes

b) (2,0.8)

c)[tex](2\sqrt2,1), (-2\sqrt2,1)[/tex]

d) [tex]x \in (-\infty,\infty)[/tex]

e) (0,0)

f) (0,0)  

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following function in the question:

[tex]f(x) = \displaystyle\frac{16x^2}{x^4 + 64}[/tex]

a) We have to check whether given point lies on the function or not.

[tex](-2\sqrt2,1)\\\\f(-2\sqrt2) = \displaystyle\frac{16(-2\sqrt2)^2}{(-2\sqrt2)^4 + 64} = \frac{128}{128} = 1[/tex]

b) Find value of f(x) at x = 2

[tex]f(2) = \displaystyle\frac{16(2)^2}{(2)^4 + 64} =\frac{64}{80}= 0.8[/tex]

Thus, (2,0.8) lies on the graph of given function.

c) We have to find the value of x, when f(x) = 1

[tex]1 = \displaystyle\frac{16x^2}{x^4 + 64}\\\\x^4 -16x^2 + 64 = 0\\(x^2-8)^2 = 0\\x^2 - 8 = 0\\x = \pm 2\sqrt2[/tex]

[tex](2\sqrt2,1), (-2\sqrt2,1)[/tex] lies on he graph of function.

d) Domain is the collection of all values of x for which the function is defined.

[tex]x \in (-\infty,\infty)[/tex]

e)  x-intercepts

This is the value of x such that the function is zero.

[tex]0 = \displaystyle\frac{16x^2}{x^4 + 64}\\\\16x^2 = 0\\x = 0[/tex]

f) y-intercept

It is the value of function when x is zero.

[tex]f(0) = \displaystyle\frac{16(0)^2}{(0)^4 + 64} = 0[/tex]

The function passes trough origin.

Final answer:

The solution involves determining if a specific coordinates exist on the graph, calculating the function value for specific x-values, determining x-values for a specific function value, finding the domain of the function, and identifying the x and y intercepts of the function.

Explanation:

The function is f(x) = 16x²/(x⁴ + 64).

To check if the point (-2√2, 1) is on the graph, substitute x = -2√2 into f(x). If f(-2√2) equals 1, the point is on the graph.For x = 2, substitute x = 2 into f(x) to get f(2). The point on the graph for this x-value will be (2, f(2)).To find x when f(x) = 1, set f(x) equal to 1 and solve for x. The points on the graph will be (x, 1), where x are the solutions to the equation.The domain of the function f is all real numbers except for x-values that make the denominator zero. Solve x⁴ + 64 = 0 to find x-values to exclude from the domain.To find the x-intercepts of the graph, set f(x) equal to zero and solve for x.The y-intercept of the graph is the value of f(x) at x = 0, which is f(0).

Simplify 25 ^1/2 using the radical form

Answers

Final answer:

To simplify 25 to the power of 1/2 using the radical form, we equate this to the square root of 25. Since 5 squared is 25, the square root of 25 is 5, hence 25^1/2 equals 5.

Explanation:

To simplify 25 to the power of 1/2 using the radical form, we look at the properties of exponents and radicals. Exponentiation and radicals are inverse operations, so the expression 251/2 is equivalent to the square root of 25 because squaring a number and then taking the square root of it returns the original number.

So, 251/2 = √25. Since the square of 5 is 25, the square root of 25 is 5. Therefore, 251/2 = 5.

The following six independent length measurements were made (in feet) for a line: 736.352, 736.363, 736.375, 736.324, 736.358, and 736.383. Determine the standard deviation of the measurements.

Answers

Answer:

Assuming population data

[tex] \sigma = \sqrt{0.000354}=0.0188[/tex]

Assuming sample data

[tex] s = \sqrt{0.000425}=0.0206[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following data given:

736.352, 736.363, 736.375, 736.324, 736.358, and 736.383.

The first step in order to calculate the standard deviation is calculate the mean.

Assuming population data

[tex]\mu = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^6 X_i}{6}[/tex]

The value for the mean would be:

[tex]\mu = \frac{736.352+736.363+736.375+736.324+736.358+736.383}{6}=736.359[/tex]

And the population variance would be given by:

[tex] \sigma^2 = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^6 (x_i-\bar x)}{6}[/tex]

And we got [tex] \sigma^2 =0.000354[/tex]

And the deviation would be just the square root of the variance:

[tex] \sigma = \sqrt{0.000354}=0.0188[/tex]

Assuming sample data

[tex]\bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^6 X_i}{6}[/tex]

The value for the mean would be:

[tex]\bar X = \frac{736.352+736.363+736.375+736.324+736.358+736.383}{6}=736.359[/tex]

And the population variance would be given by:

[tex] s^2 = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^6 (x_i-\bar x)}{6-1}[/tex]

And we got [tex] s^2 =0.000425[/tex]

And the deviation would be just the square root of the variance:

[tex] s = \sqrt{0.000425}=0.0206[/tex]

To determine the standard deviation of given length measurements, calculate the mean, find squared differences, average them, and take the square root. The standard deviation of the measurements is 0.01879 feet.

Determining the Standard Deviation of Measurements

To find the standard deviation of the given length measurements, follow these steps:

Calculate the mean of the measurements.

Find the squared differences between each measurement and the mean.

Compute the average of the squared differences.

Take the square root of that average.

Step-by-Step Calculation

→ List of measurements: 736.352, 736.363, 736.375, 736.324, 736.358, 736.383.

→ Calculate the mean:

= (736.352 + 736.363 + 736.375 + 736.324 + 736.358 + 736.383) / 6

= 736.3591667

Find the squared differences:

(736.352 - 736.3591667)^2 = 0.00005256(736.363 - 736.3591667)^2 = 0.00001464(736.375 - 736.3591667)^2 = 0.00024811(736.324 - 736.3591667)^2 = 0.00123264(736.358 - 736.3591667)^2 = 0.00000136(736.383 - 736.3591667)^2 = 0.00057044

→ Calculate the average of the squared differences:

= (0.00005256 + 0.00001464 + 0.00024811 + 0.00123264 + 0.00000136 + 0.00057044) / 6

= 0.000353292

Take the square root to find the standard deviation:
