Chase measured a line to be 8.9 inches long. If the actual length of the line is 9.5 inches, then what was the percent error of the measurement, to the nearest tenth of a percent?

Answer:

66.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Total population = 50 million

Adults = 30 million

Those not interested in working = 5 million

Those interested in working but given up on searching = 5 million

Those searching = 5 million

Those working part time = 5 million

Those working full time = 10 million

Recall that

Labour force participation rate = (number of people actively participating in labour ÷ total number of people eligible) × 100

Number of people actively participating in labour = employed + unemployed

Employed = 10 million full time + 5 million part time

= 15 million

Unemployed = 5 million. Those searching.

Thus,

People actively participating in labour = 15 + 5= 20 million.

Total number of eligible people = total number of adults = 30 million

Therefore

Labour participation rate = (20/30) × 100

= 0.66667 × 100

= 66.6667

Approximately 66.7%

Answer:

(a) 0.124

(b) 0.174

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that 60% of the Valium users in the state of Massachusetts first took Valium for psychological problems.

The Binomial distribution probability is given by;

P(X = r) = [tex]\binom{n}{r}p^{r}(1-p)^{n-r}[/tex] for x = 0,1,2,3,.......

Here, n = number of trials(samples) which is 8 in our case

           r = no. of success

          p = probability of success which is probability of users who take  

                 Valium for psychological problems of 0.60 in our case

(a) Let X = users taking Valium for psychological problems

  So, P(X = 3) = [tex]\binom{8}{3}0.6^{3}(1-0.6)^{8-3}[/tex]

                      = [tex]56 * 0.6^{3}*0.4^{5}[/tex] = 0.124

(b) Since, it is given that 60% of the Valium users in the state of  Massachusetts first took Valium for psychological problems which means 40% of the Valium users in the state of Massachusetts take Valium for problems which are not psychological.

i.e., in this case p = 0.40

So, P(X >= 5) = P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8)

= [tex]\binom{8}{5}0.4^{5}(1-0.4)^{8-5} + \binom{8}{6}0.4^{6}(1-0.4)^{8-6} + \binom{8}{7}0.4^{7}(1-0.4)^{8-7} + \binom{8}{8}0.4^{8}(1-0.4)^{8-8}[/tex]

= [tex]56 * 0.4^{5} * (0.6)^{3} + 28 * 0.4^{6} * (0.6)^{2} + 8 * 0.4^{7} * (0.6)^{1} + 1 * 0.4^{8}[/tex]

= 0.174

Using the binomial probability formula, we can determine the probabilities requested in the question. For example, the probability that exactly 3 of the next 8 users began taking Valium for psychological problems is computed using the formula for binomial probability with n=8, k=3, and p=0.60, and the probability that at least 5 began taking Valium for other reasons is computed analogously with p=0.40.

This question relates to the concepts of binomial probability and combinatorics. It asks about the probability that certain conditions are met among a specific set of Valium users.

First, to find the probability that exactly 3 of the next 8 users began taking Valium for psychological problems, we would use the formula for binomial probability: P(X=k) = C(n, k) * (p^k) * ((1-p)^(n-k)). Here, n=8 (the total number of trials), k=3 (the number of successful trials we're looking for), and p=0.60 (the probability of a single successful trial).

Calculating, we get P(X=3) = C(8, 3) * (0.60^3) * ((1-0.60)^(8-3))

For the second part of the question, we want to find the probability that at least 5 out of the 8 users began taking Valium for reasons other than psychological issues. This is equivalent to 1 - the probability that 4 or fewer of the 8 users took it for non-psychological reasons.

The same binomial probability formula can be used, with n=8, p=0.40 (since the probability of a single user taking Valium for non-psychological reasons is 1 - 0.60 = 0.40), and k taking values from 0 to 4. The probabilities are computed for each k and then summed. The result is then subtracted from 1 to get our desired probability, given by: P(X>=5) = 1 - Σ [P(X=k) from k=0 to 4]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation given is:

[tex]0.75C+1.25A \leq 70[/tex]

This equation dictates the number of haircuts Horace gives in 7 hours.

Horace gave 5 child haircuts (C=5). So, that would make the equation:

[tex]0.75C+1.25A \leq 7\\0.75(5)+1.25A \leq 7\\3.75+1.25A \leq 7\\1.25A \leq 7 - 3.75\\1.25A \leq 3.25\\A \leq \frac{3.25}{1.25}\\A \leq 2.6[/tex]

This means Horace can give LESS THAN or EQUAL to 2.6 haircuts.

2.6 haircuts doesn't make sense, so the maximum would be "2" haircuts.

Answer:

The last one: 6.3 units.

Answer: 6.3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the distance between two points on a straight line is expressed as

Distance = √(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

Where

x2 represents final value of x on the horizontal axis

x1 represents initial value of x on the horizontal axis.

y2 represents final value of y on the vertical axis.

y1 represents initial value of y on the vertical axis.

From the graph given,

x2 = 4

x1 = - 2

y2 = 4

y1 = 2

Therefore,

Distance = √(4 - - 2)² + (4 - 2)²

Distance = √6² + 2² = √36 + 4 = √40

Distance = 6.3 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample variance is computed by dividing the Sum of Squares (SS) by the number of samples (n).

Population variance is computed by dividing the Sum of Squares (SS) by the difference between the number of samples and 1 (n-1).

After computing, it would be found that the sample variance is less than the population variance.

The average of sample variances, computed by dividing the Sum of Squares by sample size (n) from all possible samples, will be less than the population variance.

If sample variance is computed by dividing Sum of Square (SS) by sample size (n), then the average value of the sample variances from all possible random samples would be biased. In fact, it will be less than the actual population variance. This is commonly known as Bessel's correction in statistics. For an unbiased estimate of the population variance, we should rather divide the SS by degrees of freedom (n-1), not by the sample size n. So, when you average the sample variances, obtained by dividing by n from all possible samples, the result will be less than the population variance.

The function of area will be A(x) = x( 480 - 2x)

The area of the rectangle is the product of the length and width of a given rectangle.

The perimeter is given P = 480 meters

Since the one of the sides does not need fencing, the perimeter would be:

P = 2x + y

Make y the subject;

y = P -2x

Substitute 480 for P;

y = 480 - 2x

The area of a rectangular fence is:

Area = xy

Substitute ;

A = x( 480 - 2x)

Answer:

21.27 years

Step-by-step explanation:

22800 = 9900(1.04^t)

22800/9900 = 1.04^t

76/33 = 1.04^t

ln(76/33) = t×ln(1.04)

t = 21.27

Answer: it will take 20.83 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for continuously compounded interest is

A = P x e (r x t)

Where

A represents the future value of the investment after t years.

P represents the present value or initial amount invested

r represents the interest rate

t represents the time in years for which the investment was made.

e is the mathematical constant approximated as 2.7183.

From the information given,

P = 9900

A = 22800

r = 4% = 4/100 = 0.04

Therefore,

22800 = 9900 x 2.7183^(0.04 x t)

22800/9900 = 2.7183^0.04t

2.3 = 2.7183^0.04t

Taking ln of both sides, it becomes

Ln 2.3 = 0.04t ln2.7183

0.833 = 0.04t

t = 0.833/0.04

t = 20.83 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the given rectangle is of the standard form option 1.[tex]2x^{2} + 3x - 20[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The parameters needed to determine the area of a rectangle are the base length and the width.

The base length of this rectangle is [tex]2x-5[/tex] units while its width is [tex]x+4[/tex] units.

The area of a rectangle is determined by multiplying the base length with the width.

Step 2:

The area of the rectangle [tex]= (length)(width).[/tex]

Here length is [tex]2x-5[/tex] units and the width is [tex]x+4[/tex] units.

The area of the rectangle[tex]= (2x-5)(x+4) = 2x^{2} + 8x -5x-20 = 2x^{2} + 3x - 20.[/tex]

So the area of the given rectangle is of the standard form [tex]2x^{2} + 3x - 20[/tex] which is the first option.

To find the area of the rectangle, we need to multiply the expressions for the lengths of its sides. The sides are given as [tex]\(2x - 2\) and \(x + 4\).[/tex]

First, write the expressions for the sides of the rectangle:

- One side is[tex]\(2x - 2\)[/tex]

- The other side is[tex]\(x + 4\)[/tex]

To find the area, multiply these two expressions:

[tex]\[(2x - 2)(x + 4)\][/tex]

Use the distributive property (also known as the FOIL method for binomials) to expand this product:

[tex]\[(2x - 2)(x + 4) = 2x(x) + 2x(4) - 2(x) - 2(4)\][/tex]

Simplify each term:

[tex]\[= 2x^2 + 8x - 2x - 8\][/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]\[= 2x^2 + 6x - 8\][/tex]

So, the polynomial expression in standard form representing the area of the rectangle is:

[tex]\[2x^2 + 6x - 8\][/tex]

Given the options:

- 2x^2 + 3x − 20

- 2x^2 + 13x − 1

- 2x^2 + 13x − 20

- 2x^2 + 3x − 1

None of these options exactly match our result of [tex]\(2x^2 + 6x - 8\),[/tex] indicating a potential error in the problem statement or options provided. The correct simplified polynomial expression for the area, based on the given side lengths, is[tex]\(2x^2 + 6x - 8\).[/tex]

Cathy must fill the 2-cup jar 5 times to transfer a total of 10 cups.

Final answer:

To fill a 10-cup bucket using a 2-cup jar, Cathy must scoop water from the pond 5 times, as 10 divided by 2 equals 5.

Explanation:

The question is how many times Cathy needs to scoop water from the pond with a 2-cup jar to fill her 10-cup bucket.

To find the answer, we simply divide the total capacity of the bucket by the capacity of the jar. So, the calculation would be:

Calculate the total number of cups needed: 10 cups (capacity of the bucket).

Calculate the number of cups per scoop: 2 cups (capacity of the jar).

Divide the total number of cups by the number of cups per scoop: 10 cups/ 2 cups per scoop

= 5 scoops.

Cathy needs to scoop water from the pond 5 times to fill her 10-cup bucket.

Answer:

Cost of 3 bottles will be $7.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

According to double number line.

Cost of 4 bottles = $10

Based on this we need to find the cost of 3 bottles of water.

Solution:

Now we know that;

4 bottles = $10

1 bottle = Cost of 1 bottle

By using Unitary method we get;

Cost of 1 bottle = [tex]\frac{10}{4}=\$2.5[/tex]

So we can say that;

Cost of n bottles = [tex]\$2.5n[/tex]

Cost of 3 bottles = [tex]\$2.5\times 3 = \$7.5[/tex]

Hence Cost of 3 bottles will be $7.5.

Now we have drawn the double number line.

Bottom line(Line 1)  will be number of bottles:  

1   2   3   4   5   6  

Top line (Line 2) will be the cost of corresponding bottles:

2.5  5  7.5  10  12.5  15

Answer:

$7.5 Dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost of 4 bottles is $10. So, 1 bottle is going to be $2.50.

Now, to find the cost of 3 water-bottles, we have to multiply.

$2.50 * 3 = $7.50.

So, the answer to this question is  3 bottles = $7.50
