Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]x=5,\\AC=14[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since one triangle is inscribed in another, the two triangles are similar. As marked in the diagram, the sides of the larger triangle are exactly two times larger than the corresponding sides of the smaller triangle.

Therefore, we have:

[tex]2(x+2)=4x-6,\\2x+4=4x-6,\\10=2x,\\x=\boxed{5}[/tex]

Since AC is marked by [tex]4x-6[/tex]:

[tex]AC=4(5)-6,\\AC=20-6,\\AC=\boxed{14}[/tex]

What is the fraction?

In Mathematics, fractions are represented as a numerical value, which defines a part of a whole. A fraction can be a portion or section of any quantity out of a whole, where the whole can be any number, a specific value, or a thing.

Given that, there were 240 patients in total.

1/3 of these patients chose pasta.

Number of patients chose pasta

= 1/3 ×240

= 60

3/8 of these patients chose beef stew.

Number of patients chose beef stew

= 3/8 ×240

= 90

Number of patients chose chicken

= 240-(60+90)

#SPJ2

A worker is exposed to 98 dB for five hours and 82 dB for three hours, giving an eight-hour working day. On average, what noise level is this worker exposed to?

Answers

Answer:

92 dB

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the mean formula, mean = sum of elements / number of elements.

Since it is a 8 hour work day, there are 8 elements.

mean = sum of elements / number of elements

mean = (98 + 98 + 98 + 98 + 98 + 82 + 82 + 82) / 8

mean = 736 / 8

mean = 92

So, the average noise level is 92 dB

Answers

Answer:

(a) [tex]f(2) = 81[/tex]

(b) [tex]g(2) = 83[/tex]

(c) Test average for maths class after test 2 is greater

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(x) = 0.5x + 80[/tex]

[tex]x \to g(x)[/tex]

[tex]1 \to 81[/tex]

[tex]2 \to 83[/tex]

[tex]3 \to 85[/tex]

Solving (a): f(2)

We have:

[tex]f(x) = 0.5x + 80[/tex]

[tex]f(2) = 0.5*2+80[/tex]

[tex]f(2) = 1 + 80[/tex]

[tex]f(2) = 81[/tex]

Solving (b): g(2)

From the table:

[tex]g(x) = 83[/tex] when [tex]x = 2[/tex]

So:

[tex]g(2) = 83[/tex]

Solving (c): Which is greater f(2) or g(2)

In (a) and (b),

[tex]f(2) = 81[/tex]

[tex]g(2) = 83[/tex]

Hence, test average for maths class is greater

The dean of a major university claims that the mean number of hours students study at her University (per day) is at most 4.9 hours. If a hypothesis test is performed, how should you interpret a decision that rejects the null hypothesis

Answers

Answer:

If the null hypothesis is rejected, the interpreatation is that there is significant evidence at the desired significance level to conclude that the mean time the students study at her university is of more than 4.9 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The dean of a major university claims that the mean number of hours students study at her University (per day) is at most 4.9 hours.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean is of at most 4.9 hours, that is:

[tex]H_0: \mu \leq 4.9[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the mean is more than 4.9 hours, that is:

[tex]H_1: \mu > 4.9[/tex]

Accepting the null hypothesis:

If the null hypothesis is accepted, the interpretation is that there is not significant evidence to conclude that the mean time the students study at her university is of more than 4.9 hours.

Rejecting the null hypothesis:

As is the case in this question, if the null hypothesis is rejected, the interpreatation is that there is significant evidence at the desired significance level to conclude that the mean time the students study at her university is of more than 4.9 hours.

To find the slope, you need two points [tex](-4,5)[/tex] and [tex](0,0)[/tex].

Then use the Slope Formula to Identify the slope.

M = Slope

M = [tex]\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]         Second y being subtracted by the first y / the second x being subtracted by the first x.

The difference between the measures of two complementary angles is 56 determine the measures of the two angles. The larger angle has a measure of? And the smaller angle has a measure of?

Answers

Answer:

Larger angle= 73, smaller angle= 17

Step-by-step explanation:

I wrote an equation, and x is the measure of one of the angles

90=2x-56

90+56=2x-56+56

146=2x

73=x

One of the angles is 73, so subtract 53 from 73 to find the second angle. 73+56=17

You can make sure it adds up to a complementary angle by seeing if 17+73=90

Assume that the rest of his analysis still holds true. Calculate the probability that the loss in nominal dollars is less than 1000, given that the loss in nominal dollars is greater than 200.

Answers

Answer:

100%  probability that the loss in nominal dollars is less than 1000, given that the loss in nominal dollars is greater than 200.

Step-by-step explanation:

Uniform probability distribution:

An uniform distribution has two bounds, a and b.

The probability of finding a value of at lower than x is:

[tex]P(X < x) = \frac{x - a}{b - a}[/tex]

The probability of finding a value between c and d is:

[tex]P(c \leq X \leq d) = \frac{d - c}{b - a}[/tex]

The probability of finding a value above x is:

[tex]P(X > x) = \frac{b - x}{b - a}[/tex]

Uniformly distributed on [0, 1000].

This means that [tex]a = 0, b = 1000[/tex]

Given that the loss in nominal dollars is greater than 200.

This means that [tex]a = 200[/tex]

Calculate the probability that the loss in nominal dollars is less than 1000

[tex]P(X < x) = \frac{x - a}{b - a}[/tex]

[tex]P(X < 1000) = \frac{1000 - 200}{1000 - 200} = 1[/tex]

100%  probability that the loss in nominal dollars is less than 1000, given that the loss in nominal dollars is greater than 200.

Two containers designed to hold water are side by side, both in the shape of a cylinder. Container A has a diameter of 16 feet and a height of 19 feet. Container B has a diameter of 20 feet and a height of 15 feet. Container A is full of water and the water is pumped into Container B until Container A is empty.

To the nearest tenth, what is the percent of Container B that is empty after the pumping is complete?

Answers

18.9% is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

volume of a cylinder = πd²/4 x h

where d is diameter and h is height of cylinder.

thus

vol of A is

[tex]vol \: of \: a \: = \pi \times \frac{ {d}^{2} }{4} \times h \\ = \pi \times \frac{ {16}^{2} }{4} \times 19 \\ = \pi \times 4 \times 16 \times 19 \\ = 3818.24[/tex]

and

[tex]vol \: of \: b = \pi \times \frac{ {20}^{2} }{4} \times 15 \\ = \pi \times 5 \times 20 \times 15 \\ = 4710[/tex]

difference in vol of a and b is

[tex]diff \: = vol \: of \: b \: - vol \: of \: a \\ = 4710 - 3818.24 \\ = 891.76[/tex]

this volume will remain empty after container A is pumped into container B.

this volume as a percentage of total volume of B is

[tex]\% = \frac{diff \: vol}{total \: vol} \times 100 \\ = \frac{891.76}{4710} \times 100 \\ = 18.9\%[/tex]

Suppose that the distance of fly balls hit to the outfield (in baseball) is normally distributed with a mean of 247 feet and a standard deviation of 41 feet. Use your graphing calculator to answer the following questions. Write your answers in percent form. Round your answers to the nearest tenth of a percent. a) If one fly ball is randomly chosen from this distribution, what is the probability that this ball traveled fewer than 216 feet

Answers

Answer:

77.5% probability that this ball traveled fewer than 216 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 247 feet and a standard deviation of 41 feet.

This means that [tex]\mu = 247, \sigma = 41[/tex]

What is the probability that this ball traveled fewer than 216 feet?

The probability as a decimal is the p-value of Z when X = 216. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{216 - 247}{41}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.756[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.756[/tex] has a p-value of 0.775

0.775*100% = 77.5%

77.5% probability that this ball traveled fewer than 216 feet.

tank contains 250 liters of fluid in which 20 grams of salt is dissolved. Pure water is then pumped into the tank at a rate of 5 L/min; the well-mixed solution is pumped out at the same rate. Find the number A(t) of grams of salt in the tank at time t.

Answers

Solution :

Given data :

[tex]c_{in}[/tex] = 1 g/L

[tex]r_{in}[/tex] = 5 L/min

[tex]r_{out}[/tex] = 5 L/min

[tex]$v_0$[/tex] = 250 L

[tex]A_0[/tex] = 20 g

∴ [tex]r_{net} = r_{in}- r_{out}[/tex]

         = 5 - 5

          = 0

[tex]c_{out} = \frac{A}{250} \ g/L[/tex]

Now, [tex]\frac{dA}{dt}=(r_{in} \times c_{in}) - (r_{out} \times c_{out})[/tex]

[tex]$\frac{dA}{dt} = 5-5\left(\frac{A}{250}\right)$[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt}+5 \left(\frac{A}{250}\right) = 5[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt}+5 \left(\frac{A}{250}\right) = 5 \text{ with} \ A_0 = 20[/tex]

Integrating factor = exp(5 t/250)

Therefore,

[tex]A \times \exp (5t \ /250) = \text{integral of}\ 5 \times \exp (5t / 250) + C[/tex]

Put [tex]A_0=250+C[/tex]

C = -230

[tex]A \times \exp(5t/250) = 250 \exp(5t/250) + (-230)[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 250-230 \exp(-5t/250)[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 250-230e^{\left(\frac{-t}{50}\right)} \ g[/tex]

The plumber works twice as long as his assistant on this job, and the labor charge on the final bill is $2000. How long did the plumber and his assistant work on this job

Answers

Answer:

The plumber worked 50 hours, and his assistant worked 25 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a plumber and his assistant work together to replace the pipes in an old house, and the plumber charges $ 30 an hour for his own labor and $ 20 an hour for his assistant's labor, and the plumber works twice as long as his assistant on this job, and the labor charge on the final bill is $ 2000, to determine how long did the plumber and his assistant work on this job the following calculation must be performed:

40 x 30 + 20 x 20 = 1200 + 400 = 1600

50 x 30 + 25 x 20 = 1500 + 500 = 2000

Therefore, the plumber worked 50 hours, and his assistant worked 25 hours.
