A research team conducted a study showing that approximately 20% of all businessmen who wear ties wear them so tightly that they actually reduce blood flow to the brain, diminishing cerebral functions. At a board meeting of 15 businessmen, all of whom wear ties, what are the following probabilities?

(a) at least one tie is too tight

(b) more than two ties are too tight

(c) no tie is too tight

(d) at least 13 ties are not too tight

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

b) more than two ties are too tight

Step-by-step explanation:

20% of 15

15 = 100%

x = 20%

100x = 15 * 20

x = 300/100

x = 3

ps: I always wear my tie loose at any circumstance, guess I'll never be a good businessman with reduced blood flow to the brain =/

PLEASE HELP ME ITS ALGEBRA THANK YOUUUU

Answers

Answer: 171 attendees

Step-by-step explanation:

I answered another similar question by you earlier, so I really hope you read through this explanation, as I will go far in depth.  It's important you learn to do this so as not to simply skate through homework, then struggle with assessment.

For this problem, you have to find something called a unit price.

A unit price is the price in dollars per thing.

In this case, the price in dollars for the whole group is $132 for many things, 66 attendees.

Because 66 attendees costs $132, to find out how much money a single attendee costs, simply divide $132 by 66 to get 2$ for 1 attendee.

With this information, it is very straightforward to determine the number of attendees for $342.  Simply divide $342 by $2 to get 171 attendees.

I really hope it helps :) and please, let me know if you want me to explain in more depth, the unit you are currently in is a fundamental part of early math, and it is important you understand it.

What percentage of K-cups can be expected to fall within 2 Standard Deviations of the mean?

What is the probability that a K-cup will have more than .33 ounces?

Sam's club sells K-cups in a box of 128. How many of them will weigh less than .23 ounces?

K-cups that are more than 2 SD below the mean are considered to be to "weak". What percentage of K-cup are considered to "weak"

In a standard box of 44 k-cups, how many will weigh between .23 and .38 ounces

The ideal weight for K-cups are within 1 SD of the mean, how many of the Sam's Club box of K-cups are ideal?

Answers

Using the Empirical Rule, it is found that:

95% of K-cups can be expected to fall within 2 Standard Deviations of the mean.0.16 = 16% probability that a K-cup will have more than .33 ounces.20 of them will weight less than 0.23 ounces.2.5% of K-cups are considered weak.36 will weigh between 0.23 and 0.38 ounces.30 of the Sam's Club box of K-cups are ideal.

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem:

The mean is of 0.28 ounces.The standard deviation is of 0.05 ounces.

First, by the Empirical Rule, 95% of K-cups can be expected to fall within 2 Standard Deviations of the mean.

0.33 ounces is one standard deviation above the mean.

68% of the measures are between 0.23 and 0.33 ounces.The normal distribution is symmetric, which means that of the remaining 100 - 68 = 32%, 16% are less than 0.23 ounces and 16% are more than 0.33 ounces, thus:

0.16 = 16% probability that a K-cup will have more than .33 ounces.

16% weigh less than 0.23 ounces. Out of 128:

[tex]0.16(128) = 20[/tex]

20 of them will weight less than 0.23 ounces.

5% of the measures are more than 2 SD from the mean. Due to the symmetry of the normal distribution, 2.5% are more than 2 SD below the mean, thus, 2.5% of K-cups are considered weak.

0.23 is one standard deviation below the mean.0.38 is two standard deviations above the mean.Of the 50% below the mean, 68% are above 0.23.Of the 50% above the mean, 95% are below 0.38.

Thus, the proportion between 0.23 and 0.38 is:

[tex]p = 0.68(0.50) + 0.95(0.5) = 0.815[/tex]

Out of 44:

[tex]0.815(44) = 36[/tex]

36 will weigh between 0.23 and 0.38 ounces.

68% are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

Out of 44:

[tex]0.68(44) = 30[/tex]

30 of the Sam's Club box of K-cups are ideal.

-6.4x + 3.5y = 7? what is the slope

Answers

6.4/3.5, OR about 1.83

First job is to isolate the y.

3.5y=6.4x+7

Now divide both sides by 3.5 to get the equation into y=mx+b form.

That leaves a rounded equation of y=1.83x+2

In y=mx+b, the m is the slope. This means the slope of this line is 1.83, or 6.4/3.5

1/4 + 23/28 - 1

please help

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{14}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{1}{4} + \frac{23}{28} - 1 = ?[/tex]

First off, let's change everything to a common denominator. This will allow us to add the fractions!

To find a common denominator, we find a number that both 4, 28, and 1 can go into. 28 is the best choice, as 4 goes into it 7 times, 28 goes into it once, and 1 goes into it 28 times.

Let's change the first fraction into a number with a denominator of 28!

[tex]\frac{1}{4} * \frac{7}{7} = \frac{7}{28}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{7}{7}[/tex] = 1. Multiplying a number by one doesn't change its value.

The second fraction, [tex]\frac{23}{28}[/tex], already has a denominator of 28, so we don't have to do anything with it.

Now to the third number, -1:

[tex]-1 = -\frac{1}{1} * \frac{28}{28} = -\frac{28}{28}[/tex]

Now, let's add them all up!

[tex]\frac{7}{28} + \frac{23}{28} - \frac{28}{28} = \frac{7 + 23 - 28}{28} = \frac{2}{28}[/tex]

One last step, to simplify:

[tex]\frac{2}{28} = \frac{1}{14}[/tex]

The container that holds the water for the football team is 2/3
full. After pouring out 3
gallons of water, it is 1/2
full. How many gallons can the container hold?

Answers

Answer:

18 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll find out how much of the total container was lost when pouring out by subtracting 2/3 from 1/2.

2/3 = 4/6

1/2 = 3/6

4/6 - 3/6 = 1/6

1/6 of the total amount the container could hold was lost when 3 gallons was poured out. This means that 1/6 of the container equals to 3 gallons. We can then simply multiply 3 by 6 to find the number of gallons of liquid the container can hold.

3 * 6 = 18 gallons

Checking my answer:

18 * 2/3 = 6 * 2 = 12

12 - 3 = 9

1/2 of 18 = 9

This means that our answer is correct.

if carl runs 4 laps in 18 minutes, how many laps can he run in 1 1/2 hours

Answers

Answer:

20 laps

Step-by-step explanation:

18 divide by 4 = 4.5

so 1 lap equals 4.5 minutes

and 1 and half hours is 90 minutes so 90 divide by 4.5 = 20 laps

He can run 20 laps.

90 minutes is 1 1/2 hours
We setup the equation to solve:

4/18=x/90

Solve for x by isolating and then cross multiply.

2/9=x/90

Cross multiply,

180=9x

Swap sides,

9x=180

Divide both sides by 9

X=20 :)

4. secθ √6/3

5. cotθ √6/2

Answers

The functions are illustrations of trigonometry ratios

[tex]\mathbf{(a)\ cos\theta = \frac{\sqrt{15}}{5}}[/tex]

The sine of an angle is calculated as follows

[tex]\mathbf{sin\theta = \sqrt{1 - cos^2\theta}}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{sin\theta = \sqrt{1 - (\sqrt{15}/5)}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{sin\theta = \sqrt{1 - (15/25)}}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]\mathbf{sin\theta = \sqrt{\frac{10}{25}}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{sin\theta = \frac{\sqrt{10}}{5}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{(b)\ tan\theta = \frac{\sqrt{10}}{2}}[/tex]

The tangent of an angle is:

[tex]\mathbf{\ tan\theta = \frac{Opposite}{Adjacent}}[/tex]

Using Pythagoras theorem, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{Hypotenuse^2 = Opposite^2 + Adjacent^2}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{Hypotenuse^2 = (\sqrt{10})^2 + 2^2}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Hypotenuse^2 = 10 + 4}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Hypotenuse^2 = 14}[/tex]

Take square roots

[tex]\mathbf{Hypotenuse = \sqrt{14}}[/tex]

So, the sine of the angle is:

[tex]\mathbf{\ sin\theta = \frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\ sin\theta = \frac{\sqrt{10}}{\sqrt{14}}}[/tex]

Rationalize

[tex]\mathbf{\ sin\theta = \frac{\sqrt{140}}{14}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{(c)\ csc\theta = \frac{\sqrt{15}}{3}}[/tex]

The sine of the angles is:

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{sin \theta = \frac{1}{\sqrt{15}/3}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{sin \theta = \frac{3}{\sqrt{15}}}[/tex]

Rationalize

[tex]\mathbf{sin \theta = \frac{3\sqrt{15}}{15}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{sin \theta = \frac{\sqrt{15}}{5}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{(d)\ sec\theta =\frac{\sqrt 6}{3}}}[/tex]

The sine of an angle is calculated as follows

[tex]\mathbf{sin\theta = \sqrt{1 - (1/sec\theta)^2}}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{sin\theta = \sqrt{1 - (3/\sqrt 6)^2}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{sin\theta = \sqrt{(1 - 9/6)}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{sin\theta = \sqrt{( - 3/6)}}[/tex]

The sine of the angle does not have a real value

[tex]\mathbf{(e)\ cot\theta = \frac{\sqrt 6}{2}}[/tex]

Start by calculating the tangent of the angle

[tex]\mathbf{tan\theta = \frac{1}{cot\theta}}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{tan\theta = \frac{1}{\sqrt 6/2}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{tan\theta = \frac{2}{\sqrt 6}}[/tex]

Rationalize

[tex]\mathbf{tan\theta = \frac{2\sqrt 6}{6}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{tan\theta = \frac{\sqrt 6}{3}}[/tex]

The tangent of an angle is:

[tex]\mathbf{\ tan\theta = \frac{Opposite}{Adjacent}}[/tex]

Using Pythagoras theorem, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{Hypotenuse^2 = Opposite^2 + Adjacent^2}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{Hypotenuse^2 = (\sqrt{6})^2 + 3^2}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Hypotenuse^2 = 6 + 9}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Hypotenuse^2 = 15}[/tex]

Take square roots

[tex]\mathbf{Hypotenuse = \sqrt{15}}[/tex]

So, the sine of the angle is:

[tex]\mathbf{\ sin\theta = \frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\ sin\theta = \frac{\sqrt{6}}{\sqrt{15}}}[/tex]

Rationalize

[tex]\mathbf{\ sin\theta = \frac{\sqrt{90}}{15}}[/tex]
