SCALCET8 4.7.011. Consider the following problem: A farmer with 950 ft of fencing wants to enclose a rectangular area and then divide it into four pens with fencing parallel to one side of the rectangle. What is the largest possible total area of the four pens

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

For any rectangle, the one with the largest area will be the one whose dimensions are as close to a square as possible.

However, the dividers change the process to find this maximum somewhat.

Letting x represent two sides of the rectangle and the 3 parallel dividers, we have 2x+3x = 5x.

Letting y represent the other two sides of the rectangle, we have 2y.

We know that 2y + 5x = 750.

Solving for y, we first subtract 5x from each side:

2y + 5x - 5x = 750 - 5x

2y = - 5x + 750

Next we divide both sides by 2:

2y/2 = - 5x/2 + 750/2

y = - 2.5x + 375

We know that the area of a rectangle is given by

A = lw, where l is the length and w is the width. In this rectangle, one dimension is x and the other is y, making the area

A = xy

Substituting the expression for y we just found above, we have

A = x (-2.5x+375)

A = - 2.5x² + 375x

This is a quadratic equation, with values a = - 2.5, b = 375 and c = 0.

To find the maximum, we will find the vertex. First we find the axis of symmetry, using the equation

x = - b/2a

x = - 375/2 (-2.5) = - 375/-5 = 75

Substituting this back in place of every x in our area equation, we have

A = - 2.5x² + 375x

A = - 2.5 (75) ² + 375 (75) = - 2.5 (5625) + 28125 = - 14062.5 + 28125 = 14062.5

terms are there. Divide 51 into three parts in AP so that the largest exceeds the smallest by 10.​

Answers

The first three terms of the Arithmetic Progression are 12, 17 and 22.

For an ARITHMETIC PROGRESSION, AP ;

First term = a

Second term = a + d

Third term = a + 2d

Where, d = common difference ;

If third term exceeds smallest by 10 ;

Third term - first term

a + 2d - a = 10

2d = 10

d = 10/2

d = 5

Sum of the three terms :

a + (a + d) + a + 2d = 51

3a + 3d = 51

d = 5

3a + 3(5) = 51

3a + 15 = 51

3a = 51 - 15

3a = 36

a = 12

The AP would be:

First term, a = 12

Second term, a + d = 12 + 5 = 17

Third term = a + 2(d) = 12 + 10 = 22

Therefore , the first three terms of the AP are :

An investigator compares the durability of two different compounds used in the manufacture of a certain automobile brake lining. A sample of 127 brakes using Compound 1 yields an average brake life of 42,814 miles. A sample of 163 brakes using Compound 2 yields an average brake life of 37,197 miles. Assume that the population standard deviation for Compound 1 is 1819 miles, while the population standard deviation for Compound 2 is 1401 miles. Determine the 98% confidence interval for the true difference between average lifetimes for brakes using Compound 1 and brakes using Compound 2.
Step 1 of 3 is Point estimate so 42,814 - 37,197 = 5,617
Step 2 of 3 :
Calculate the margin of error of a confidence interval for the difference between the two population means. Round your answer to six decimal places.
Step 3 of 3:
Construct the 98% confidence interval. Round your answers to the nearest whole number. (lower and upper endpoint)

Answers

Answer:

The point estimate is 5,617.

The margin of error of a confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is 454.18386 .

The 98% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (5163, 6071).

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.

Compound 1:

127 brakes, average brake life of 42,814 miles, population standard deviation of 1819 miles. This means that:

[tex]\mu_1 = 42814[/tex]

[tex]s_1 = \frac{1819}{\sqrt{127}} = 161.41[/tex]

Compound 2:

163 brakes, average brake life of 37,197 miles, population standard deviation of 1401 miles. This means that:

[tex]\mu_2 = 37197[/tex]

[tex]s_2 = \frac{1401}{\sqrt{163}} = 109.73[/tex]

Distribution of the difference:

[tex]\mu = \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 42814 - 37197 = 5617[/tex]

The point estimate is 5,617.

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_1^2 + s_2^2} = \sqrt{161.41^2 + 109.73^2} = 195.18[/tex]

Confidence interval

The confidence interval is:

[tex]\mu \pm zs[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = zs[/tex]

98% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.02[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.02}{2} = 0.99[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.327[/tex].  

Margin of error:

[tex]M = zs = 195.18*2.327 = 454.18386 [/tex]

The margin of error of a confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is 454.18386 .

For the confidence interval, as we round to the nearest whole number, we round it 454. So

The lower bound of the interval is:

[tex]\mu - zs = \mu - M = 5617 - 454 = 5163[/tex]

The upper bound of the interval is:

[tex]\mu + zs = \mu + M = 5617 + 454 = 6071[/tex]

The 98% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (5163, 6071).

The average of two numbers is 5x. If one of the numbers is 2x + 3, find the other number.

Answers

Answer:

8x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Average of 2 numbers means add the two numbers and divide by 2

(y+z)/2 = 5x

Let z = 2x+3

(y+2x+3)/2 = 5x

Multiply each side by 2

y+2x+3 = 10x

Subtract 2x from each side

y+3 = 10x-2x

y+3 = 8x

Subtract 3

y = 8x-3

The other number is 8x-3

An arithmetic sequence is one where each term increases by the same number every time. This is called the common difference and is always added to the previous term to get the current term.

Henry bought 2 kilograms of chicken for a family dinner. After dinner, only 61.5 grams were left. How much chicken was eaten, in kilograms?

Answers

Answer:

1.9385 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Total kilogram of chicken = 2 kilograms

Amount left after dinner = 61.5 gram

Recall :

1000 grams = 1 kilogram

Hence,

61.5 grams = x kg

x = (61. 5 / 1000) = 0.0615 kg

Hence,

Amount eaten = Total chicken - amount left

Amount eaten = (2 - 0.0615) kg

Amount eaten = 1.9385 kg

"Members of a population are organized in clusters, each of which is representative of the population, and then whole clusters are randomly selected to make up the sample"

Step-by-step explanation:

In cluster random sampling, "the population is divided, usually geographically, into groups that generally have the same size.  A certain number of groups are randomly chosen, and every individual in the chosen groups are chosen for the sample."

In accord with this logic, the second choice, "Members of a population are organized in clusters, each of which is representative of the population, and then whole clusters are randomly selected to make up the sample" seems to be correct.

if for men working for hours for 4 days complete for unit of work then how many unit of work will be completed by two men working for two hours per day?​

Answers

The 2 men working for 2 hours per 2 days will complete 1/2 unit of work. This is calculated by using the proportions formula.

What is the formula for calculating equal proportions?

The formula for the given proportions is,

a: b = c: d

⇒ a/b = c/d

⇒ ad = bc

In this way, the required variable is calculated.

Calculation:

For the given question, the proportion we can write

M1 × H1 × D1: M2 × H2 × D2 = W1: W2

⇒ M1 × H1 × D1 × W2 = M2 × H2 × D2 × W1

Where M1 = 4; H1 = 4; D1 = 4; M2 = 2; H2 = 2; D2 = 2 and W1 = 4

We need to calculate W2 -  required units of work

So, on substituting,

M1 × H1 × D1 × W2 = M2 × H2 × D2 × W1

⇒ 4 × 4 × 4 × W2 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 4

⇒ 64 × W2 = 32

⇒ W2 = 32/64

∴ W2 = 1/2

Thus, the required units of work are 1/2.

So, 2 men working for 2 hours for 2 days will complete 1/2 unit of work.
