Answers

Answer 1

We want to answer different things about the weight of the dogs, with simple algebra we will find that the answers are:

a) P - 13lb + 1.2*E = P - 1lbb) E =  10lbc) Euclid's weight is 10 pounds.d) Pythagora's weight is 33 pounds and Riemann's weight is 20 pounds.

We start by defining the two variables we will be using:

E = Euclid's weightP = Pythagoras's weight

First, Pythagoras loses 13 lb, then his new weight is:

P' = P - 13lb

We know that if he wins 1.2 Euclid's weight, he will still have a pound less than before.

A) using the above information we can rewrite:

P - 13lb + 1.2*E = P - 1lb

This is the equation we need to solve.

b) So we want to solve this for E, then we move all the other terms to the right side:

1.2E = P - 1lb - P + 13lb

1.2E = 12lb

E = (12lb)/1.2 = 10lb

c) The solution of the above equation tells us that the weight of the dog is 10lb.

d) Let's define R as the weight of the third dog.

We know that:

R = 2*E = 2*10lb = 20lb

We also know that the combined weight of the 3 dogs is 63 lb, then we have:

E + R + P = 63lb

10lb + 20lb + P = 63lb

P = 63lb - 10lb -20lb = 33lb

A rocket is launched at t = 0 seconds. Its height, in meters above sea-level, is given by the equation
h = -4.9t2 + 112t + 395.
At what time does the rocket hit the ground? The rocket hits the ground after how many seconds

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find out how long it takes for the rocket to hit the ground, we only need set that position equation equal to 0 (that's how high something is off the ground when it is sitting ON the ground) and factor to solve for t:

[tex]0=-4.9t^2+112t+395[/tex]

Factor that however you are factoring in class to get

t = -3.1 seconds and t = 25.9 seconds.

Since time can NEVER be negative, it takes the rocket approximately 26 seconds to hit the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

H0 : μ = 15.7

H1 : μ < 15.7

This is a one sample t test :

Test statistic = (xbar - μ) ÷ (s/√(n))

n = sample size = 33

Using calculator :

The sample mean, xbar = 15.41

The sample standard deviation, s = 0.419

Test statistic = (15.41 - 15.70) ÷ (0.419/√(33))

Test statistic = - 3.976

Using the Pvalue calculator :

Degree of freedom, df = n - 1 ; 33 - 1 = 32

Pvalue(-3.976, 32) = 0.000187

Reject H0 if Pvalue < α

Since Pvalue < α ; we reject H0

Max needs to paint a wall that is shaped like a square. He knows that the area of the wall is 75 ft2 . He needs to find the height of the wall. Find the height of the wall to the nearest tenth of a foot.

Answers

Answer:

8.7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the square area formula, a = s², where s is the side length of the square.

Plug in the area and solve for s:

a = s²

75 = s²

√75 = s

8.7 = s

So, to the nearest tenth of a foot, the height is 8.7 feet

You are dealt two cards successively without replacement from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. Find the probability that the first card is a two and the second card is a ten.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{4}{52} \times \frac{4}{51} = \frac{16}{2652} = 0.00603 = 0.603\%[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 52 cards in a standard deck, and there are 4 suits for each card. Therefore there are 4 twos and 4 tens.

At first we have 52 cards to choose from, and we need to get 1 of the 4 twos, therefore the probability is just

[tex]\frac{4}{52}[/tex]

After we've chosen a two, we need to choose one of the 4 tens. But remember that we're now choosing out of a deck of just 51 cards, since one card was removed. Therefore the probability is

[tex]\frac{4}{51}[/tex]

Now to get the total probability we need to multiply the two probabilities together

[tex]\frac{4}{52} \times \frac{4}{51} = \frac{16}{2652} = 0.00603 = 0.603\%[/tex]

Dogsled drivers, known as mushers, use several different breeds of dogs to pull their sleds. One proponent of Siberian Huskies believes that sleds pulled by Siberian Huskies are faster than sleds pulled by other breeds. He times 47 teams of Siberian Huskies on a particular short course, and they have a mean time of 5.2 minutes. The mean time on the same course for 39 teams of other breeds of sled dogs is 5.5 minutes. Assume that the times on this course have a population standard deviation of 1.4 minutes for teams of Siberian Huskies and 1.1 minutes for teams of other breeds of sled dogs. Let Population 1 be sleds pulled by Siberian Huskies and let Population 2 be sleds pulled by other breeds. Step 1 of 2 : Construct a 95% confidence interval for the true difference between the mean times on this course for teams of Siberian Huskies and teams of other breeds of sled dogs

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the true difference between the mean times on this course for teams of Siberian Huskies and teams of other breeds of sled dogs is (-0.8276, 0.2276).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.  

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Siberian Huskies:

Sample of 47, mean of 5.2 minutes, standard deviation of 1.4. So

[tex]\mu_1 = 5.2[/tex]

[tex]s_1 = \frac{1.4}{\sqrt{47}} = 0.2042[/tex]

Others:

Sample of 39, mean of 5.5 minutes, standard deviation of 1.1. So

[tex]\mu_2 = 5.5[/tex]

[tex]s_2 = \frac{1.1}{\sqrt{39}} = 0.1761[/tex]

Distribution of the difference:

[tex]\mu = \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 5.2 - 5.5 = -0.3[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_1^2+s_2^2} = \sqrt{0.2042^2+0.1761^2} = 0.2692[/tex]

Confidence interval:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = zs[/tex]

In which s is the standard error. So

[tex]M = 1.96(0.2692) = 0.5276[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is -0.3 - 0.5276 = -0.8276.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is -0.3 + 0.5276 = 0.2276

The 95% confidence interval for the true difference between the mean times on this course for teams of Siberian Huskies and teams of other breeds of sled dogs is (-0.8276, 0.2276).

Answers

Answer:

To maximize the monthly rental profit, 90 units should be rented out.

The maximum monthly profit realizable is $38,200.

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex of a quadratic function:

Suppose we have a quadratic function in the following format:

[tex]f(x) = ax^{2} + bx + c[/tex]

It's vertex is the point [tex](x_{v}, y_{v})[/tex]

In which

[tex]x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

[tex]y_{v} = -\frac{\Delta}{4a}[/tex]

Where

[tex]\Delta = b^2-4ac[/tex]

If a<0, the vertex is a maximum point, that is, the maximum value happens at [tex]x_{v}[/tex], and it's value is [tex]y_{v}[/tex].

In this question:

Quadratic equation with [tex]a = -12, b = 2160, c = -59000[/tex]

To maximize the monthly rental profit, how many units should be rented out?

This is the x-value of the vertex, so:

[tex]x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a} = -\frac{2160}{2(-12)} = \frac{2160}{24} = 90[/tex]

To maximize the monthly rental profit, 90 units should be rented out.

What is the maximum monthly profit realizable?

This is p(90). So

[tex]p(90) = -12(90)^2 + 2160(90) - 59000 = 38200[/tex]

The maximum monthly profit realizable is $38,200.

To find the length of the rope we have to find the L.C.M. of 45, 75 and 81 :

       

3  |  45, 75, 81

    | ________________      

3  |  15, 25, 27

    |________________

3  |    5, 25, 9

5  |    5, 25, 1

    |________________

5  |     1, 5, 1

    |________________

    |      1, 1, 1

     

L.C.M. = 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5

= 2025 cm

So, the least length of the rope should be 2025 cm which can be cut into a whole number of pieces of length 45 cm, 75 cm and 81 cm.

Answers

Answer:

a) Yes , Cause The Expected Returns of stock A is Higher than that of B

b) No,  Cause The Expected Returns of stock B is Lower than that of A

Beta B \beta B=0.8

Stock 1 Growth rates of earnings and dividends G_1=10\%

Stock 2 Growth rates of earnings and dividends  G_2=5\%

Stock 1  Dividend yields D_1=5\%

Stock 2 Dividend yields  D_2=7\%

Generally the equation for Expected Returns is mathematically given by

Expected Returns =Growth rates+Dividend yields

For Stock 1

Expected\ Returns =G_1+D_1

Expected\ Returns =5%+10%

Expected\ Returns =15%

For Stock 2

Expected\ Returns =G_2+D_2

Expected\ Returns =7%+5%

Expected\ Returns =12%

Therefore

a) Yes , Cause The Expected Returns of stock A is Higher than that of B

b) No,  Cause The Expected Returns of stock B is Lower than that of A

Answers

Here we want to solve a question involving fractions, we will find that:

3/4 gallon fils the complete bin.

Ok, so we know that 1/2 gallon of water, fills 2/3 of the bin.

We want to find the total amount of water that would fill the entire bin.

So we could write an equation like:

amount of water =  amount of the bin that it fills.

Then, using the above information, we have:

1/2 gal  = 2/3 of a bin

Now we want to get at 1 on the right side, this would mean "1 bin"

Then we multiply both sides by (3/2)

(3/2)*(1/2) gal = (3/2)*(2/3) of a bin

3/4 gal = 1 bin

From this, we can conclude that (3/4) gallons of water would fill the complete bin.

We will take 3/3 since we have the information that 2/3 of the volume of the bin was filled with 2/3 of a gallon

If  2/3 of the volume of the bin was filled with 1/2 gallon then we make a rule of three according to:

If     0,5  gal.         fill    2/3 of the volume of the bin   then

          x   gal         fill     3/3  ( the volume of the bin)

solving

0,5 (gal) * 3/3    =   (2/3)*x       ( The equation)

0,5*3 = 2*x

x  =  (0,5*3)/2

x = 0,75 gallons      or       x  = 3/4   gallons

use undetermined coefficient to determine the solution of:y"-3y'+2y=2x+ex+2xex+4e3x​

Answers

First check the characteristic solution: the characteristic equation for this DE is

r ² - 3r + 2 = (r - 2) (r - 1) = 0

with roots r = 2 and r = 1, so the characteristic solution is

y (char.) = C₁ exp(2x) + C₂ exp(x)

For the ansatz particular solution, we might first try

y (part.) = (ax + b) + (cx + d) exp(x) + e exp(3x)

where ax + b corresponds to the 2x term on the right side, (cx + d) exp(x) corresponds to (1 + 2x) exp(x), and e exp(3x) corresponds to 4 exp(3x).

However, exp(x) is already accounted for in the characteristic solution, we multiply the second group by x :

y (part.) = (ax + b) + (cx ² + dx) exp(x) + e exp(3x)

Now take the derivatives of y (part.), substitute them into the DE, and solve for the coefficients.

y' (part.) = a + (2cx + d) exp(x) + (cx ² + dx) exp(x) + 3e exp(3x)

… = a + (cx ² + (2c + d)x + d) exp(x) + 3e exp(3x)

y'' (part.) = (2cx + 2c + d) exp(x) + (cx ² + (2c + d)x + d) exp(x) + 9e exp(3x)

… = (cx ² + (4c + d)x + 2c + 2d) exp(x) + 9e exp(3x)

Substituting every relevant expression and simplifying reduces the equation to

(cx ² + (4c + d)x + 2c + 2d) exp(x) + 9e exp(3x)

… - 3 [a + (cx ² + (2c + d)x + d) exp(x) + 3e exp(3x)]

… +2 [(ax + b) + (cx ² + dx) exp(x) + e exp(3x)]

= 2x + (1 + 2x) exp(x) + 4 exp(3x)

… … …

2ax - 3a + 2b + (-2cx + 2c - d) exp(x) + 2e exp(3x)

= 2x + (1 + 2x) exp(x) + 4 exp(3x)

Then, equating coefficients of corresponding terms on both sides, we have the system of equations,

x : 2a = 2

1 : -3a + 2b = 0

exp(x) : 2c - d = 1

x exp(x) : -2c = 2

exp(3x) : 2e = 4

Solving the system gives

a = 1, b = 3/2, c = -1, d = -3, e = 2

Then the general solution to the DE is

y(x) = C₁ exp(2x) + C₂ exp(x) + x + 3/2 - (x ² + 3x) exp(x) + 2 exp(3x)

[tex] {1}^{\circ} =( { \frac{\pi}{180} } )^{c} \\ \therefore \: {80}^{\circ} = ( \frac{80\pi}{180} ) ^{c} = {( \frac{4\pi}{9} })^{c} \: = \theta ^{c} [/tex]

radius r = 9 cm

Area of green shaded regions = A

[tex] \sf \: A = \frac{1}{2} { {r}^{2} }{ { \theta}^{ c} } \\ = \frac{1}{2} \times {9}^{2} \times \frac{4\pi}{9} \\ = 18\pi \: {cm}^{2} [/tex]

are ratios 2:3 and 8:12 equalvelent to eachother

Answers

Answer:

2:3 is equal to 8:12

Step-by-step explanation:

2:3

To get the first number to 8

8/2 = 4

Multiply by all terms 4

2*3 : 3*4

8:12

2:3 is equal to 8:12

8:12 = 8/12

= 2/3

= 2:3

Therefore 2:3 and 8:12 are equalent to each other.

Most of the heat loss for outdoor swimming pools is due to surface
evaporation. So, the greater the area of the surface of the pool, the greater
the heat loss. For a given perimeter, which surface shape would be more
efficient at retaining heat: a circle or a rectangle? Justify your answer.

Answers

Answer:

rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of 20 feet

rectangle (square is technically a rectangle):

sides 5 and 5

5*5 = 25ft²

Circle:

20/(2π) = 3.18309...

3.1809...²π = 31.831ft²

Max area of rectangle (i.e. square) has a smaller area than a circle.

Using a profit P1 of $5,000, a profit P2 of $4,500, and a profit P3 of $4,000, calculate a 95% confidence interval for the mean profit per customer that SoftBus can expect to obtain. (Round your answers to one decimal place.) Lower Limit Upper Limit

Answers

Answer:

Confidence Interval

Lower Limit = $4,233.3

Upper Limit = $4,766.7

With 95% confidence, the mean profit per customer that SoftBus can expect to obtain is between $4,233.30 and $4,766.7 based on the given sample data.

Step-by-step explanation:

The z-score of 95% = 1.96

             Profit         Mean      Square Root

                          Difference    of MD

P1        $5,000       $500        $250,000

P2         4,500          0              0

P3         4,000       -500         $250,000

Total $13,500                        $500,000

Mean $4,500 ($13,500/3)    $166,667 ($500,000/3)

Standard Deviation = Square root of $166,667 = 408.2

Margin of error = (z-score * standard deviation)/n

= (1.96 * 408.2)/3

= 266.7

= $266.7

Confidence Interval = Sample mean +/- Margin of error

= $4,500 +/- 266.7

Lower Limit = $4,233.3 ($4,500 - $266.7)

Upper Limit = $4,766.7 ($4,500 + $266.7)

After being given Miranda warnings, the man confessed to the robbery but denied his involvement with several other recent armed robberies of businesses in the area. He was formally charged with the one robbery and put into a cell with a paid informant working undercover for the police. The informant had been instructed to find out what he could about the other robberies but not to ask any questions. The informant began talking about a convenience store robbery in which a bystander was shot and seriously injured by the robber, and he deliberately misstated how it happened. The man, unaware that his cell mate was an informant, interrupted to correct him, bragging that he knew what really happened because he was there, and proceeded to make incriminating statements about the robbery. The man was subsequently charged with armed robbery and attempted murder in the convenience store robbery.At a motion-to-suppress hearing on that charge, if the man's attorney moves to exclude the statements made to the informant, should the motion be granted?A. Yes, because the informant deliberately elicited incriminating statements in violation of the man's Sixth Amendment right to counsel.B. Yes, because the informant's conduct constituted custodial interrogation in violation of the man's Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination.C. No, because the man had not yet been charged with the robbery of the convenience store when he made the statements to the informant.D.
