True or False? Tell whether the pair of ratios form a proportion. 4/5 and 5/6 Please explain why you chose what you chose​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

False. The products from cross multiplication are different.

Step-by-step explanation:

To know if a pair of ratios form a proportion, cross multiply. If the products are equal, they are a proportion.

Write like this to see top (numerator) and bottom (denominator) clearly.

[tex]\frac{4}{5} =\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

Multiply each numerator with the other side's denominator:

4 X 6 = 24

5 X 5 = 25

Are they equal? No. 24 ≠ 25

Therefore it's not a proportion.

We reject the null hypothesis because the [tex]p_v <\alpha[/tex]. So we can conclude that the difference is significantly different from 0 at 5% of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this output:

[tex]t_{difference}=-0.395[/tex]

t(observed value) =-7.44

t(Critical value )= 1.984

DF = 98

p value (two tailed) < 0.0001

[tex]\alpha =0.05[/tex]

[tex]p_v = 2*P(t_{98}<-7.44)<0.0001[/tex]

d) State the final conclusion that addresses the original claim

Reject Null hypothesis. The is enough evidence to conclude that the mean prediction error is not equal to 0.

We reject the null hypothesis because the [tex]p_v <\alpha[/tex]. So we can conclude that the difference is significantly different from 0 at 5% of significance.

A 1kg projectile is launched from a platform 2m above ground northwards with initial speed of 300m/s and an angle of elevation of π 4 above the horizon. If the wind applies a force of 3N to the east, find the position function of the object.

Answers

Answer:

the position equation of the projectile are

[tex]x = \frac{300}{\sqrt{2} } t +\frac{1}{2} 3t^{2}[/tex]

[tex]y= 2+\frac{300}{\sqrt{2} } t-\frac{1}{2} gt^{2}[/tex]

in x and y direction

Step-by-step explanation:

let the mass of the projectile be m, initial velocity be u

the wind applies a force of 3 newton in east direction.

therefore acceleration due to the force in east direction =[tex]\frac{force}{mass}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{3}{m} =\frac{3}{1}[/tex]

acceleration due to gravity is in south direction = g

let east be x direction and north be y direction.

therefore acceleration in x direction = 3[tex]\frac{m}{s^{2} }[/tex] and in y direction = -g[tex]\frac{m}{s^{2} }[/tex]

writing equation of motion in x and y direction:

[tex]x = u_{x} t + \frac{1}{2} at^{2}[/tex]

[tex]y = u_{y} t + \frac{1}{2} at^{2}[/tex]

[tex]u_{x}[/tex]= ucos45 = [tex]\frac{300}{\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

[tex]u_{y}[/tex]= usin45= [tex]\frac{300}{\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

therefore

[tex]x = \frac{300}{\sqrt{2} } t +\frac{1}{2} 3t^{2}[/tex]

[tex]y= 2+\frac{300}{\sqrt{2} } t-\frac{1}{2} gt^{2}[/tex]

[tex]s_d =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (d_i -\bar d)^2}{n-1} =9.311[/tex]

b) [tex]63.331 < \mu_{left arm}-\mu_{right arm} <81.069[/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".  

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.  

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".  

Solution

Let put some notation  

x=value for right arm , y = value for left arm

x: 102, 101,94,79,79

y: 175,169,182,146,144

The first step is calculate the difference [tex]d_i=y_i-x_i[/tex] and we obtain this:

d: 73, 68, 88, 67, 65

Part a

The second step is calculate the mean difference  

[tex]\bar d= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n d_i}{n}= \frac{361}{5}=72.2[/tex]

The third step would be calculate the standard deviation for the differences, and we got:

[tex]s_d =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (d_i -\bar d)^2}{n-1} =9.311[/tex]

Part b

The next step is calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

[tex]df=n-1=5-1=4[/tex]

Now we need to calculate the critical value on the t distribution with 4 degrees of freedom. The value of [tex]\alpha=1-0.9=0.1[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2=0.05[/tex], so we need a quantile that accumulates on each tail of the t distribution 0.05 of the area.

We can use the following excel code to find it:"=T.INV(0.05;4)" or "=T.INV(1-0.05;4)". And we got [tex]t_{\alpha/2}=\pm 2.13[/tex]

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:  

[tex]\bar d \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex] (1)  

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):  

[tex]72.2-2.13\frac{9.311}{\sqrt{5}}=63.331[/tex]  

[tex]72.2+2.13\frac{9.311}{\sqrt{5}}=81.069[/tex]  

So on this case the 90% confidence interval would be given by (63.331;81.069).

[tex]63.331 < \mu_{left arm}-\mu_{right arm} <81.069[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The diagram is a polygon with unequal sides. The number of sides and angles is 5. This means that it is an irregular Pentagon. The formula for the sum of interior angles of a polygon is expressed as

(n - 2)180

Where n is the number if sides of the polygon. Since the number of sides of the given polygon is 5, the sum if the interior angles would be

(5-2)×180 = 540 degrees. Therefore,

10x - 3 + 5x + 2 + 7x - 11 + 13x - 31 + 8x - 19 = 540

43x - 62 = 540

43x = 540 + 62 = 602

x = 602/43 = 14

Angle S = 13 - 31 = 13×14 - 31 = 182 - 31

Angle S = 151 degrees.

4) The diagram is a rectangle. Opposite sides are equal. Triangle JNM is an isosceles triangle. It means that its base angles, Angle NMJ and angle NJM are equal. Therefore

3x + 38 = 7x - 2

7x - 3x = 38 + 2

4x = 40

x = 40/4

x = 10

Angle NMJ = 7x - 2 = 7×10 - 2 = 68 degrees.

Angle JML = 90 degrees ( the four angles in a rectangle are right angles). Therefore,

Angle NML = 90 - 68 = 22 degrees

Answers

Answer:

Answer = I. Chi-squared test of independence

Step-by-step explanation:

The test of independence uses the contingency table format. The analysis of a two-way contingency table helps to answer the question whether two variables are related or independent of each other. Thus, the chi-square statistic measures how much the observed frequencies differ from the expected frequencies when variables are independent. The first procedure is to state the null and alternative hypothesis  

H0: No relationship exists between the type of pet adopted (dog, cat, bird, etc.) and the season (winter, spring, summer, fall) during which such pet would be adopted  

H1: There is a relationship between the type of pet adopted (dog, cat, bird, etc.) and the season (winter, spring, summer, fall) during which such pet would be adopted  

To be able to decide whether to reject the null hypothesis or not, we need to compare the calculated test statistic with its chi-square table or critical value using a given level of significance and degree of freedom and then decide using the decision rule (Reject H0 if the calculated chi-square statistic is greater than the critical value otherwise, accept H0)

(Round to the nearest tenth as needed.)

Answers

Answer:

Answer explained below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be the working hours of plant A.

Let b be the working hours of plant H.

Let c be the working hours of plant M.

We have to minimize , Z = 60a + 92b + 140c

subject to constraint , 40a + 20b + 40c >=350

                20a + 40b + 40c >=240

where a>=0 , b>=0 ,c>=0

So ,by solving this , a = 7.67 , b= 2.17 , c = 0

So ,working hours of plant A = 8 hrs

working hours of plant H = 3 hrs

working hours of plant M = 0 hrs

Answer:

A = 8hrs  

H = 3hrs  

M = 0hrs  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be the working hours of plant A.  

Let b be the working hours of plant H.  

Let c be the working hours of plant M.  

∴ Hours of plants A,H,M are a,b,c respectively.  

We have to minimize the cost of production, Z = 60a + 92b + 140c  

Regular ice cream: 40a + 20b + 40c = 350  

Deluxe ice cream: 20a + 40b +40c =240  

Where a>=0, b>=0, c>=0  

So, by solving this, a= 7.67, b= 2.77,c= 0  

So working hours of plant A = 8 hrs  

Working hours of plant H = 3 hrs  

Working hours of plant M = 0 hrs  

At time t=0 sec, a tank contains 15 oz of salt dissolved in 50 gallons of water. Then brine containing 88oz of salt per gallon of brine is allowed to enter the tank at a rate of 55 gal/min and the mixed solution is drained from the tank at the same rate.a. How much salt is in the tank at an arbitrary time t? b. How much salt is in the tank after 25 min?

Answers

Answer:

a) [tex]s(t) =400- 385 e^{-\frac{1}{10} t}[/tex]

b) [tex]s(t=25min) =400- 385 e^{-\frac{1}{10}25}=368.397 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a

Assuming that the original concentration of salt is 8 oz/gal and that the rate of in is equal to the rate out = 5 gal/min.

For this case we know that the rate of change can be expressed on this way:

[tex]Rate change = In-Out[/tex]

And we can name the rate of change as [tex]\frac{ds}{dt}=rate change[/tex]

And our variable s would represent the amount of salt for any time t.

We know that the brine containing 8oz/gal and the rate in is equal to 5 gal/min and this value is equal to the rate out.

For the concentration out we can assume that is [tex]\frac{s}{50gal}[/tex]

And now we can find the expression for the amount of salt after time t like this:

[tex]\frac{dS}{dt}= 8 \frac{oz}{gal}(5\frac{gal}{min}) -\frac{s}{50gal} 5 \frac{gal}{min} =40\frac{oz}{min}- \frac{s}{10} \frac{oz}{min}[/tex]

And we have this differential equation:

[tex]\frac{dS}{dt} +\frac{1}{10} s = 40[/tex]

With the initial conditions y(0)=15 oz

As we can see we have a linear differential equation so in order to solve it we need to find first the integrating factor given by:

[tex]\mu = e^{\int \frac{1}{10} dt }= e^{\frac{1}{10} t}[/tex]

And then in order to solve the differential equation we need to multiply with the integrating factor like this:

[tex]e^{\frac{1}{10} t} s = \int 40 e^{\frac{1}{10} t} dt[/tex]

[tex]e^{\frac{1}{10} t} s = 400 e^{\frac{1}{10} t} +C[/tex]

Now we can divide both sides by [tex] e^{\frac{1}{25} t} [/tex] and we got:

[tex]s(t) =400 + C e^{-\frac{1}{10} t}[/tex]

Now we can apply the initial condition in order to solve for the constant C like this:

[tex]15 = 400+C[/tex]

[tex]C=-385[/tex]

And then our function would be given by:

[tex]s(t) =400- 385 e^{-\frac{1}{10} t}[/tex]

Part b

For this case we just need to replace t =25 and see what we got for the value of the concentration:

[tex]s(t=25min) =400- 385 e^{-\frac{1}{10}25}=368.397 [/tex]

a) The quantity of salt in time is described by [tex]m(t) = V_{T}\cdot c_{in}+(m_{T}-V_{T} \cdot c_{in})\cdot e^{-\frac{\dot V}{V_{T}} \cdot t}[/tex].

b) There are 4400 ounces of salt in the tank after 25 minutes.

How to model a dissolution process in a tank

In this question we must model the salt concentration in the tank ([tex]c(t)[/tex]), in ounces per gallon, as a function of time ([tex]t[/tex]), in minutes, in which salt is dissolved into the tank due to a constant inflow rate ([tex]\dot V[/tex]), in gallons. Likewise, an equal outflow rate exists with resulting concentration.

a) The process is modelled mathematically by a non-homogeneous first order differential equation and physically by principle of mass conservation, whose description is shown below:

[tex]\frac{dc(t)}{dt} + \frac{\dot V}{V_{T}}\cdot c(t) = \frac{\dot V}{V_{T}}\cdot c_{in}[/tex]   (1)

Where:

[tex]V_{T}[/tex] - Tank volume, in gallons[tex]c_{in}[/tex] - Inflow salt concentration, in ounces per gallon

The solution of this differential equation is:

[tex]c(t) = c_{in} + \left(\frac{m_{T}}{V_{T}}-c_{in} \right)\cdot e^{-\frac{\dot V}{V_{T}}\cdot t }[/tex]   (2)

Where [tex]m_{T}[/tex] is the initial salt mass of the tank, in ounces.

And the salt mass in the tank at an arbitrary time [tex]t[/tex] ([tex]m(t)[/tex]), in ounces, is obtained by multiplying (2) by the volume of the tank. That is to say:

[tex]m(t) = c(t)\cdot V_{T}[/tex]   (3)

By replacing [tex]c(t)[/tex] in (3) by (2), we have the following expression:

[tex]m(t) = V_{T}\cdot c_{in}+(m_{T}-V_{T} \cdot c_{in})\cdot e^{-\frac{\dot V}{V_{T}} \cdot t}[/tex]   (4)

The quantity of salt in time is described by [tex]m(t) = V_{T}\cdot c_{in}+(m_{T}-V_{T} \cdot c_{in})\cdot e^{-\frac{\dot V}{V_{T}} \cdot t}[/tex]. [tex]\blacksquare[/tex]

b) If we know that [tex]V_{T} = 50\,gal[/tex], [tex]\dot V = 55\,\frac{gal}{min}[/tex], [tex]c_{in} = 88\,\frac{oz}{gal}[/tex], [tex]m_{T} = 15\,oz[/tex] and [tex]t = 25\,min[/tex], then the quantity of salt is:

[tex]m(25) = (50)\cdot (88)+[15-(50)\cdot (88)]\cdot e^{-\left(\frac{55}{50} \right)\cdot (25)}[/tex]

[tex]m(25) = 4400\,oz[/tex]

There are 4400 ounces of salt in the tank after 25 minutes. [tex]\blacksquare[/tex]

What is the probability that a randomly selected can will need to go through this process? A) .1587 B) .6587 C) .8413 D) .3413

Answers

Answer: A) .1587

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The amount of soda a dispensing machine pours into a 12-ounce can of soda follows a normal distribution with a mean of 12.30 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.20 ounce.

i.e. [tex]\mu=12.30[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=0.20[/tex]

Let x denotes the amount of soda in any can.

Every can that has more than 12.50 ounces of soda poured into it must go through a special cleaning process before it can be sold.

Then, the probability that a randomly selected can will need to go through the mentioned process =  probability that a randomly selected can has more than 12.50 ounces of soda poured into it =

[tex]P(x>12.50)=1-P(x\leq12.50)\\\\=1-P(\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\leq\dfrac{12.50-12.30}{0.20})\\\\=1-P(z\leq1)\ \ [\because z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}]\\\\=1-0.8413\ \ \ [\text{By z-table}]\\\\=0.1587[/tex]

Hence, the required probability= A) 0.1587

Final answer:

The probability that a randomly selected can will need a special cleaning process because it holds more than 12.50 ounces of soda is calculated using the Z-score. The correct answer is A) 0.1587.

Explanation:

The question asks us to calculate the probability that a randomly selected can will require a special cleaning process if it holds more than 12.50 ounces of soda, given a normal distribution with a mean of 12.30 ounces and a standard deviation of 0.20 ounce. To find this probability, we can use the standard normal distribution, also known as the Z-score.

First, we calculate the Z-score for 12.50 ounces using the formula: Z = (X - \\mu\) / \\sigma\, where X is the value we are evaluating (12.50 ounces), \mu is the mean (12.30 ounces), and \sigma is the standard deviation (0.20 ounce). Plugging in the values gives us Z = (12.50 - 12.30) / 0.20 = 1. The Z-score represents the number of standard deviations the value X is from the mean.

Next, to find the probability that a can will overflow (have more than 12.50 ounces), we look up the corresponding probability in the standard normal distribution table or use a calculator suitable for such statistical computations. The probability corresponding to a Z-score of 1 is approximately 0.8413. However, since we are interested in the probability of a can having more than 12.50 ounces, we need the area to the right of the Z-score, which is 1 - 0.8413 = 0.1587. Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected can will require a special cleaning process is 0.1587.

The correct answer to the question is A) 0.1587.

A triangle is measured and two adjacent sides are found to be 3 inches and 4 inches long, with an included angle of π/4. The possible errors in measurement are 1/18 inch for the sides and 0.05 radian for the angle. Approximate the maximum possible error in the computation of the area. (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answers

The maximum possible error in the area is approximately 0.18 square inches.

Calculate the nominal area:

Using the given measurements, the nominal area is (1/2) * 3 * 4 * sin(π/4) ≈ 3 square inches.

Find the partial derivatives of the area formula:

A = (1/2)ab sin(C), where a and b are the sides and C is the included angle.

∂A/∂a = (1/2)b sin(C)

∂A/∂b = (1/2)a sin(C)

∂A/∂C = (1/2)ab cos(C)

Estimate the maximum possible errors for each variable:

Δa ≈ 1/18 inches

Δb ≈ 1/18 inches

ΔC ≈ 0.05 radians

Approximate the maximum error using differentials:

ΔA ≈ |∂A/∂a|Δa + |∂A/∂b|Δb + |∂A/∂C|ΔC

ΔA ≈ (1/2)(4)(sin(π/4))(1/18) + (1/2)(3)(sin(π/4))(1/18) + (1/2)(3)(4)(cos(π/4))(0.05)

ΔA ≈ 0.18 square inches

Round the answer:

The maximum possible error in the area is approximately 0.18 square inches.

Which of the following conditions must be met if you want to use z-procedures to construct a confidence interval for a population proportion?

A. The sample size must be at least 30 (some texts say 50).
B The population must be at least 10 times as large as the sample (some texts say 20).
C. Both npˆ and n(1 − pˆ) must be at least 10 (some texts say greater than 5).

Answers

Final answer:

To use z-procedures for a confidence interval for a population proportion, three conditions must be met. The sample size must be large (at least 30 or 50), the population must be at least 10 or 20 times as large as the sample, and both npˆ and n(1 - pˆ) must be at least 10, ensuring the sampling distribution approximates to normal.

Explanation:

The process of constructing a confidence interval for a population proportion through z-procedures demands certain conditions to be met. These conditions directly shape the accuracy of the findings. There are three key requirements:

The sample size must be large enough, often at least 30 or 50 as per certain textbooks, to ensure the central limit theorem applies and the distribution approximates normal. However, this condition is more relevant for mean-based estimates and less for proportions.The population should be large enough compared to the sample. According to some literature, the population should be at least 10 or 20 times larger than the sample. This condition is known as the '10% rule' for categorical data, which aims to limit the effects of potential sample dependency.Lastly, the quantities of both npˆ and n(1 - pˆ) should be at the minimum of 10 (some sources claim more than 5). This requirement is crucial to validate that the sampling distribution for the sample proportion is approximately normal.

The correct condition for using z-procedures to construct a confidence interval for a population proportion is:

C. Both [tex]\( np \hat{p} \)[/tex] and [tex]\( n(1 - \hat{p}) \)[/tex] must be at least 10 (some texts say greater than 5).

To use z-procedures to construct a confidence interval for a population proportion, we typically rely on the normal approximation to the binomial distribution. For this approximation to be valid, both [tex]\( np \hat{p} \)[/tex] and [tex]\( n(1 - \hat{p}) \)[/tex] should be sufficiently large.

- [tex]\( n \)[/tex] represents the sample size.

- [tex]\( \hat{p} \)[/tex] represents the sample proportion.

Both conditions ensure that the sampling distribution of the sample proportion is approximately normal.

1. [tex]\( np \hat{p} \geq 10 \)[/tex]: This condition ensures that there are at least 10 expected successes in the sample.

2.[tex]\( n(1 - \hat{p}) \geq 10 \)[/tex]: This condition ensures that there are at least 10 expected failures in the sample.

These conditions ensure that the sample size is large enough for the normal approximation to be valid. They are more precise than A and B, which are common rules of thumb but not absolute requirements for using z-procedures.

Step-by-step explanation:

You should not rely on anecdotal evidence because of the very small sample size. Since the sample size is very small, outliers end up having a very big weight.

Here Andy is basing himself on one anecdotal evidence he heard. So a sample size of 1. If he were to base his opinion from a large sample size, it is highly likely that 99% of the people were saved by the seatbelt and 1% got hurt. Since Andy only heard the anecdotal evidence, he may be basing himself on a very unlikely event.

Final answer:

Andy's refusal to wear a seat belt based on a single incident is an example of reliance on anecdotal evidence, a logical fallacy. This means he is making a general rule based on a singular event, which is misleading as it does not take into account the reality that seat belts vastly improve safety in car crashes. It's important to base decisions on sound evidence rather than isolated incidents.

Explanation:

Andy is relying on anecdotal evidence, which is a logical fallacy. A logical fallacy is a flaw in reasoning that makes an argument invalid. In this case, Andy has heard a story about a particular event, and is applying it as a universal rule.

However, just because a seatbelt caused harm in a single incident does not mean that seat belts are generally harmful or risky. According to various studies, your chance of being killed or seriously injured in a car crash is much higher if you are not wearing a seatbelt.

Therefore, it is illogical to avoid wearing seat belts based on a single unfortunate incident. It's important to remember that anecdotal evidence can be misleading, as it's prone to bias and doesn't take into account the full range of possibilities and outcomes.

Intelligence quotas on two different tests are normally distributed. Test A has a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 13. Test B has a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 18. Use​z-scores to determine which person has the higher​ IQ: an individual who scores 123 on Test A or an individual who scores 121 on Test B. Which individual has the higher​ IQ?

Answers

Answer:

The individual who scores 123 on test A has a higher zscore, so he has the higher IQ.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

The individual with the higher IQ is the one with the higher z-score. So

Test A has a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 13. An individual who scores 123 on Test A.

So [tex]\mu = 100, \sigma = 13, X = 123[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{123 - 100}{13}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.77[/tex]

Test B has a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 18. An individual who scores 121 on Test B.

So [tex]\mu = 100, \sigma = 18, X = 121[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{121 - 100}{18}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.17[/tex]

The individual who scores 123 on test A has a higher zscore, so he has the higher IQ.

You must find the horizontal distance between two towers (points A and B) at the same elevation on opposite sides of a wide canyon running east and west. The towers lie directly north and south of each other. You mark off an east/west line CD running perpendicular to AB.


A: From C you measure the angle between the two towers (angle ACB) as 88.60°. Given the distance from C to B is 389 feet, write an equation and solve it to find an expression for the distance AB to the nearest whole foot. (note: AB is perpendicular to CD.)


B: You want to check your work to make sure it’s right.You should be able to both measure and compute the angle at D. Knowing the distance between the two towers from above and the distance BD is 459 feet, what is the angle at D to the nearest hundredth degree?

Answers

A. 15917 ft   B.∠D=88.35°  C.0.0532 rad

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Given  that angle ∠ACB = 88.60° and the distance from C to B is 389 ft then triangle ABC is right ,90° at B. Applying the formula for tangent of an angle which is;

Tan of an angle = opposite side length/adjacent side length

Tan Ф = O/A =AB/389 ft

Tan 88.60°= AB/389

AB=389*tan 88.60° = 389×40.92 =15916.87 ft ⇒15917 ft

B.

The distance from B to D is given as 459 ft and the distance between the towers , AB, is 15917 ft. To get angle ∠D apply the formula for tangent of an angle where ;

Tan ∠D=O/A =15917/459 =34.6775599129

∠D =tan⁻(34.6775599129)

∠D=88.35°

C. To get angle ∠A subtract the sum of angle ∠C and ∠D from 180°. Apply the sum of angles in a triangle theorem

 ∠A =180° - (88.60°+88.35°)

   ∠A = 180°-(176.95°)=3.05°

    Changing degrees to radians you multiply the degree value with 0.0174533

3.05°=3.05*0.0174533=0.05323254 rad

Can the following points be on the graph of the equation x-y = 0? Explain

Answers

Hi there! I don’t see any answer choices listed, however this function takes place in the First and Third quadrants of an xy plane. This means that the values will either be at the origin (0,0) or equal numbers with the same sign. For example, (2,2), (-8,-8), and (1.38,1.38) would all be possible points. When looking at points that are given, plug x and y into your equation and see if they give the right answer. If you come across a value with different signs, such as (-4,4) or (9.3,-9.3), that will be excluded from the equation or line on a graph. PS. x-y=0 simplifies to x=y, which might make it a bit easier to look at, and on a graph y=x is simply a diagonal line across quadrants I and III. Let me know if you need any extra help!

The seating for an outdoor stage is arranged such that there are 11 seats in the first row. For each additional row after the first row, there are 3 more seats than there are in the previous row. If there are 30 rows altogether, how many seats are there in all? Select one: O

A. 1470
B. 1635
C. 2940
D. 3270

Answers

Answer:

B. 1635

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the seating for an outdoor stage is arranged such that there are 11 seats in the first row. For each additional row after the first row, there are 3 more seats than there are in the previous row.

We can see that the seating order is in form of arithmetic sequence, whose first term is 11 and common difference is 3.

Since there are 30 rows altogether, so we need to find the sum of 30 first terms of the sequence using sum formula.

[tex]S_n=\frac{n}{2}[2a+(n-1)d][/tex], where,

[tex]S_n=[/tex] Sum of n terms,

n = Number of terms,

a = First term,

d = Common difference.

Upon substituting our given value is above formula, we will get:

[tex]S_n=\frac{30}{2}[2(11)+(30-1)3][/tex]

[tex]S_n=15[22+(29)3][/tex]

[tex]S_n=15[22+87][/tex]

[tex]S_n=15[109][/tex]

[tex]S_n=1635[/tex]

Therefore, there are 1635 seats in all and option B is the correct choice.

Answer: the total number of seats is 1635

Step-by-step explanation:

For each additional row after the first row, there are 3 more seats than there are in the previous row. This means that the seats in each row is increasing in arithmetic progression with a common difference of 3. The formula for determining the sum of n terms of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as

Sn = n/2[2a + (n - 1)d]

Where

n represents the number of terms in the sequence.

a represents the first term,

d represents the common difference.

From the information given,

a = 11

n = 30

d = 3

Therefore,

S30 = 30/2[2×11 + (30 - 1)3]

S30 = 15[22 + 29×3]

S30 = 15 × 109= 1635

It is important that face masks used by firefighters be able to withstand high temperatures because firefighters commonly work in temperatures of 200-500°F. In a test of one type of mask, 12 of 60 masks had lenses pop out at 250°. Construct a 90% upper confidence limit for the true proportion of masks of this type whose lenses would pop out at 250°. (Round your answers to four decimal places.)

Answers

Final answer:

The upper 90% confidence limit for the true proportion of firefighter masks of this type whose lenses would pop out at 250° is approximately 0.2949.

Explanation:

To construct a 90% upper confidence limit for the true proportion of firefighter's masks whose lenses would pop out at 250°, firstly, we need to calculate the sample proportion (p) which is the ratio of the number of masks that had lenses popping out (12) to the total number of masks tested (60). Thus, the sample proportion is 12/60 = 0.2.

Next, we use the formula for an upper confidence limit for proportions: p + z*sqrt((p*(1-p))/n), where z is the z-score associated with the desired level of confidence (for 90% confidence, z is 1.645), p is the sample proportion, and n is the sample size.

So the upper 90% confidence limit would be calculated as: 0.2 + 1.645*sqrt((0.2*0.8)/60) = 0.2 + 1.645*0.05774 = 0.2949322. Rounding to four decimal places, we get an upper confidence limit of 0.2949.

In some year, a candy shop produced 100 boxes of candy per working day in January. In each month following this, the shop produced 25 more boxes of candy per working day in addition to the previous month.
How much boxes did the candy shop produce on each working day in October?

Answers

Answer: 325 boxes of candy will be produced on each working day in October

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial number of boxes of candy produced is 100. In each month following this, the shop produced 25 more boxes of candy per working day in addition to the previous month. This means that the number of boxes produced each month is increasing in arithmetic progression. The formula for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as

Tn = a + (n-1)d

Where

a is the first term of the sequence

n is the number of terms

d is the common difference.

From the given information,

a = 100

d = 25

n = number of months from January to October = 10

Tn = 100 + (10 - 1)25

Tn = 100 + 9×25

Tn = 100 + 225 = 325

Mr. Kim needs to buy 3 plane tickets for him, his wife & their 2 children at $259 for each person. How much will he spend on all of their plane tickets?

Twenty-two concrete blocks were sampled and tested for crushing strength in order to estimate the proportion that were sufficiently strong for a certain application. Eighteen of the 22 blocks were sufficiently strong. Use the small-sample method to construct a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of blocks that are sufficiently strong.

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval with the normla method would be given by (0.657;0.979)

The 95% confidence interval witht he small sample method would be given by (0.784;0.852)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Notation and definitions

[tex]X=18[/tex] number of blocks that were sufficiently strong

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".  

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.  

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 population proportion have the following distribution

[tex]p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})[/tex]

2) Confidence interval (Normal method)

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by [tex]\alpha=1-0.95=0.05[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2 =0.025[/tex]. And the critical value would be given by:

[tex]z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96[/tex]

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:  

[tex]\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}[/tex]

If we replace the values obtained we got:

[tex]0.818 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.818(1-0.818)}{22}}=0.657[/tex]

[tex]0.818 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.818(1-0.818)}{22}}=0.979[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval with the normla method would be given by (0.657;0.979)

3) Confidence interval (Small sample method)

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:  

[tex]\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n} \frac{N-n}{N-1}}[/tex]

But we need to know the total size for the population, and on this case we don't know but let's assumed that N=2000 for example .

If we replace the values obtained we got:

[tex]0.818 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.818(1-0.818)}{22} \frac{2000-22}{2000-1}}=0.784[/tex]

[tex]0.818 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.818(1-0.818)}{22} \frac{2000-22}{2000-1}}=0.852[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval witht he small sample method would be given by (0.784;0.852)

Answer:

[tex]10.108 < \mu < 13.892[/tex]    

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

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".

[tex]\bar X[/tex] represent the sample mean for the sample  

[tex]\mu[/tex] population mean (variable of interest)

s represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample size  

We have the following distribution for the random variable:

[tex]X \sim N(\mu , \sigma=0.45)[/tex]

And by the central theorem we know that the distribution for the sample mean is given by:

[tex]\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})[/tex]

2) Confidence interval

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

[tex]\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]   (1)

In order to calculate the mean and the sample deviation we can use the following formulas:  

[tex]\bar X= \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{x_i}{n}[/tex] (2)  

[tex]s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i-\bar X)}{n-1}}[/tex] (3)  

The mean calculated for this case is [tex]\bar X=12[/tex]

The sample deviation calculated [tex]s=2.268[/tex]

In order to calculate the critical value [tex]t_{\alpha/2}[/tex] we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:

[tex]df=n-1=8-1=7[/tex]

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2 =0.025[/tex], and we can use excel, a calculator or a tabel to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.025,7)".And we see that [tex]t_{\alpha/2}=2.36[/tex]

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

[tex]12-2.36\frac{2.268}{\sqrt{8}}=10.108[/tex]    

[tex]12+2.36\frac{2.268}{\sqrt{8}}=13.892[/tex]

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (10.108;13.892)

[tex]10.108 < \mu < 13.892[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Average value of temperature will be [tex]8.335^{\circ}C[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given the temperature in degree Celsius [tex]T(x,y)=19-4x^2-y^2[/tex]

It is given that x varies between 0 to 2

So [tex]0\leq x\leq 2[/tex]

And y varies between 0 and 4

So [tex]0\leq y\leq 4[/tex]

So area between the region A = 4×2 = 8[tex]cm^2[/tex]

Now average temperature is given by

[tex]Average\ value=\frac{1}{A}\int \int T(x,y)dA[/tex]

[tex]Average\ value=\frac{1}{8}\int \int (19-4x^2-y^2)dxdy[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{1}{8}\int \int (19x-4\frac{x^3}{3}-y^2x)dy[/tex]

As limit of x is 0 to 2

[tex]=\frac{1}{8}\int  (19\times 2-4\times \frac{2^3}{3}-y^2\times 2)-(19\times 0-4\times \frac{0^3}{3}-y^2\times 0))dy=\frac{1}{8}\int(38-\frac{32}{3}-2y^2)dy[/tex]

=[tex]=\frac{1}{8}(38y-\frac{32}{3}y-\frac{2y^3}{3})[/tex]

As limit of y is 0 to 4

So [tex]Average\ value=\frac{1}{8}(38\times 4-\frac{16}{3}\times 4-\frac{2\times 4^3}{3})-0=8.335^{\circ}C[/tex]

Part (b): [tex]\(\mu_1\)[/tex] is the mean for the non-scenic route and [tex]\(\mu_2\)[/tex] is the mean for the scenic route

In this case, we need to test whether the mean travel time for the non-scenic route [tex](\(\mu_1\))[/tex] minus the mean travel time for the scenic route [tex](\mu_2\))[/tex] is less than [tex]\(-10\)[/tex]

Null Hypothesis [tex](\(H_0\)) : \(\mu_1 - \mu_2 = 10\)[/tex]

Alternative Hypothesis [tex](\(H_a\)) : \(\mu_1 - \mu_2 < 10\)[/tex]

The carrying capacity, denoted as K, is the maximum stable value of the population, in this case, the number of parents attending the PTA meeting. The carrying capacity is expected to be 45 in this instance.

The constant b in the logistic model can be found using the initial value (15 parents) and the growth rate (20%). However, the question does not specify whether this rate is relative or absolute. Assuming relative growth, the initial growth rate r is 0.2 and the constant b = r/K would be 0.00444. This is not the traditional definition of b in a logistic equation; typically, b would denote the initial population size, so the question seems to have a specific, non-standard usage in mind that we need to respect.

A good starting value of ther, in order to ensure convergence and stability of the numerical method, can be 15, the initial population size.

The logistic model would thus be represented as P(m) = K/ (1+ (K/P_0-1) * e^(-bm)), where P_0 is the initial number of parents, K is the carrying capacity, b is the constant/ growth rate, m is the number of months, and e is the mathematical constant approximated as 2.718.

If the p-value for a hypothesis test is 0.07 and the chosen level of significance is α = 0.05, then the correct conclusion is to ____________________. A. reject the null hypothesis B. not reject the null hypothesis if σ = 10 C. reject the null hypothesis if σ = 10 D. reject the null hypothesis

Answers

Final answer:

The correct conclusion is to not reject the null hypothesis.

Explanation:

If the p-value for a hypothesis test is 0.07 and the chosen level of significance is α = 0.05, then the correct conclusion is to not reject the null hypothesis.

When conducting a hypothesis test, the p-value represents the probability of obtaining the observed data or more extreme values assuming the null hypothesis is true. If the p-value is greater than the significance level (α), which is the threshold for rejecting the null hypothesis, we fail to reject the null hypothesis.

In this case, the p-value of 0.07 is greater than the significance level of 0.05. Therefore, we cannot reject the null hypothesis.

d.) 1.6 mi/h< <4.9 mi/h

e.) 5.4 mi/h< <9.2 mi/h

Answers

Answer:

Option (B) is the correct answer to the following question.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-1: We have to find the Mean of the series.

The series is Given in the question 62 61 61 57 61 54 59 58 59 69 60 67.

[tex]Mean(\overline{x})=\frac{62+61+61+57+61+54+59+58+59+69+60+67}{12}[/tex] [tex]= 60.67[/tex]

Step-2: We have to find the Standard Deviation.

Let Standard Deviation be x.

Formula of Standard Deviation is: [tex]s= \sqrt{\frac{\sum(x_{i}+\overline{x})}{n-1}}[/tex]

Put value in formula of Standard Deviation,

[tex]s= \sqrt{\frac{(62+60.67)^{2}+(61+60.67)^{2}+(61+60.67)^{2}+(57+60.67)^{2}+....(67+60.67)^{2}}{n-1}}[/tex] = 40.75

Step-3: Then, we have to find the critical value by chi-square.

[tex]X_{1-\alpha/2}^{2}=3.82[/tex]

[tex]X_{1-\alpha/2}^{2}=21.92[/tex]

Then, find the confidence interval which is 95%.

[tex]\sqrt{\frac{(n-1).s^2}{X_{\alpha/2}^{2}} } = \sqrt{\frac{12-1}{21.92}.(4.075)^2 }\approx2.8868 \\ i.e 2.9[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{\frac{(n-1).s^2}{X_{\alpha/2}^{2}} } = \sqrt{\frac{12-1}{3.816}.(4.075)^2 }\approx6.9188 \\ i.e 6.9[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval for the population standard deviation, based on the given sample data, is estimated to be approximately between 2.9 mi/h and 6.9 mi/h. Here option B is correct.

To construct a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population standard deviation, you can use the chi-square distribution. The formula for the confidence interval is given by:

[tex]\[ \left( \sqrt{\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{\alpha/2}}}, \sqrt{\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{1-\alpha/2}}} \right) \][/tex]

where:

- n is the sample size,

- s is the sample standard deviation,

- [tex]\( \chi^2_{\alpha/2} \)[/tex] and [tex]\( \chi^2_{1-\alpha/2} \)[/tex] are the critical values from the chi-square distribution for the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval, respectively, and

- α is the significance level (0.05 for a 95% confidence interval).

Given that the sample data is: 62 61 61 57 61 54 59 58 59 69 60 67, the sample size n is 12, and the sample standard deviation s is approximately 4.75.

Now, you need to find the critical values [tex]\( \chi^2_{\alpha/2} \)[/tex] and [tex]\( \chi^2_{1-\alpha/2} \)[/tex]. For a 95% confidence interval and df = n-1 = 11, you can consult a chi-square distribution table or use a statistical software/tool to find these critical values.

Assuming [tex]\( \chi^2_{\alpha/2} \)[/tex] is 19.675 and [tex]\( \chi^2_{1-\alpha/2} \)[/tex] is 2.201, plug these values into the formula:

[tex]\[ \left( \sqrt{\frac{(12-1) \times 4.75^2}{19.675}}, \sqrt{\frac{(12-1) \times 4.75^2}{2.201}} \right) \][/tex]

Calculating this expression gives approximately (2.9, 6.9). Here option B is correct.

What is the probability that the population mean is less than 50,000 psi? b. What is the estimated fraction of pieces with yield strength less than 50,000 psi? c. Is this sampling procedure sampling-by-attributes or sampling-by-variable?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given than n = 25 , mean = 52800 sd = 4600

1) P(X<50000) , so please keep the z tables ready

we must first convert this into a z score so that we can look for probability values in the z table

using the formula

Z = (X-Mean)/SD

(50000- 52800)/4600 = -0.608

checkng the value in the z table

P ( Z>−0.608 )=P ( Z<0.608 )=0.7291

b)

again using the same formula and converting to z score

we need to calculate P(X<50000)

Z = (X-Mean)/SD

(50000- 52800)/4600 = -0.608

P ( Z<−0.608 )=1−P ( Z<0.608 )=1−0.7291=0.2709

proportion is 27% approx

c)

When your data points are measurements on a numerical scale you have variables data , here yield stress is numeric in nature , hence its a sampling by variable plan

A BINGO card is a 5 × 5 grid. The center square is a free space and has no number. The first column is filled with five distinct numbers from 1 to 15, the second with five numbers from 16 to 30, the middle column with four numbers from 31 to 45, the fourth with five numbers from 46 to 60, and the fifth with five numbers from61 to 75.
Since the object of the game is to get five in a row horizontally, vertically, or diagonally, the order is important.
