Answer:
n = 601
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we know nothing about the percentage of computers with new operating system, we assume than 50% of the computers have new operating system.
So, p = 50% = 0.5
q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5
Margin of error = E = 4 percentage points = 0.04
Confidence Level = 95%
z value associated with this confidence level = z = 1.96
We need to find the minimum sample size i.e. n
The formula for margin of error for the population proportion is:
[tex]E=z\sqrt{\frac{pq}{n}}[/tex]
Re-arranging the equation for n, and using the values we get:
[tex]n=(\frac{z}{E} )^{2} \times pq\\\\ n=(\frac{1.96}{0.04})^{2} \times 0.5 \times 0.5\\\\ n = 601[/tex]
Thus, the minimum number of computers that must be surveyed is 601
The function f(x) = 2x + 510 represents the number of calories burned when exercising, where x is the number of hours spent exercising.
The function g(x) = 200x − 125 represents the calorie deficit that occurs when combining diet with exercise, where x is the number of hours spent exercising.
What is (f + g)(2)? Explain.
514 calories burned while combining diet with 2 hours of exercise
789 calories burned while combining diet with 2 hours of exercise
514 calories burned while exercising for 2 hours
789 calories burned while exercising for 2 hours
Answer: 789 calories burned while combining diet with 2 hours of exercise
Step-by-step explanation:
we have that
[tex]f(x)=2x+510[/tex]
[tex]g(x)=200x-125[/tex]
we know that
[tex](f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x)[/tex]
substitute
[tex](f+g)(x)=2x+510+200x-125[/tex]
[tex](f+g)(x)=202x+385[/tex]
Find [tex](f+g)(2)[/tex]
For x=2 hours
substitute
[tex](f+g)(2)=202(2)+385[/tex]
[tex](f+g)(2)=789\ calories[/tex]
therefore
The answer is
789 calories burned while combining diet with 2 hours of exercise
Solve this differential Equation by using power series
y''-x^2y=o
We're looking for a solution
[tex]y=\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_nx^n[/tex]
which has second derivative
[tex]y''=\displaystyle\sum_{n=2}^\infty n(n-1)a_nx^{n-2}=\sum_{n=0}^\infty(n+2)(n+1)a_{n+2}x^n[/tex]
Substituting these into the ODE gives
[tex]\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty(n+2)(n+1)a_{n+2}x^n-\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_nx^{n+2}=0[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty(n+2)(n+1)a_{n+2}x^n-\sum_{n=2}^\infty a_{n-2}x^n=0[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle2a_2+6a_3x+\sum_{n=2}^\infty(n+2)(n+1)a_{n+2}x^n-\sum_{n=2}^\infty a_{n-2}x^n=0[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle2a_2+6a_3x+\sum_{n=2}^\infty\bigg((n+2)(n+1)a_{n+2}-a_{n-2}\bigg)x^n=0[/tex]
Right away we see [tex]a_2=a_3=0[/tex], and the coefficients are given according to the recurrence
[tex]\begin{cases}a_0=y(0)\\a_1=y'(0)\\a_2=0\\a_3=0\\n(n-1)a_n=a_{n-4}&\text{for }n\ge4\end{cases}[/tex]
There's a dependency between terms in the sequence that are 4 indices apart, so we consider 4 different cases.
If [tex]n=4k[/tex], where [tex]k\ge0[/tex] is an integer, then[tex]k=0\implies n=0\implies a_0=a_0[/tex]
[tex]k=1\implies n=4\implies a_4=\dfrac{a_0}{4\cdot3}=\dfrac2{4!}a_0[/tex]
[tex]k=2\implies n=8\implies a_8=\dfrac{a_4}{8\cdot7}=\dfrac{6\cdot5\cdot2}{8!}a_0[/tex]
[tex]k=3\implies n=12\implies a_{12}=\dfrac{a_8}{12\cdot11}=\dfrac{10\cdot9\cdot6\cdot5\cdot2}{12!}a_0[/tex]
and so on, with the general pattern
[tex]a_{4k}=\dfrac{a_0}{(4k)!}\displaystyle\prod_{i=1}^k(4i-2)(4i-3)[/tex]
If [tex]n=4k+1[/tex], then[tex]k=0\implies n=1\implies a_1=a_1[/tex]
[tex]k=1\implies n=5\implies a_5=\dfrac{a_1}{5\cdot4}=\dfrac{3\cdot2}{5!}a_1[/tex]
[tex]k=2\implies n=9\implies a_9=\dfrac{a_5}{9\cdot8}=\dfrac{7\cdot6\cdot3\cdot2}{9!}a_1[/tex]
[tex]k=3\implies n=13\implies a_{13}=\dfrac{a_9}{13\cdot12}=\dfrac{11\cdot10\cdot7\cdot6\cdot3\cdot2}{13!}a_1[/tex]
and so on, with
[tex]a_{4k+1}=\dfrac{a_1}{(4k+1)!}\displaystyle\prod_{i=1}^k(4i-1)(4i-2)[/tex]
If [tex]n=4k+2[/tex] or [tex]n=4k+3[/tex], then[tex]a_2=0\implies a_6=a_{10}=\cdots=a_{4k+2}=0[/tex]
[tex]a_3=0\implies a_7=a_{11}=\cdots=a_{4k+3}=0[/tex]
Then the solution to this ODE is
[tex]\boxed{y(x)=\displaystyle\sum_{k=0}^\infty a_{4k}x^{4k}+\sum_{k=0}^\infty a_{4k+1}x^{4k+1}}[/tex]
Evaluate the line integral by the two following methods. xy dx + x2y3 dy C is counterclockwise around the triangle with vertices (0, 0), (1, 0), and (1, 2) (a) directly (b) using Green's Theorem
When we evaluate the line integral by the two following methods the answer is: [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex].
(a) Directly:
We will evaluate the line integral directly by breaking it up into three parts, one for each side of the triangle.
1. Along the line from (0, 0) to (1, 0), y = 0 , so dy = 0 . The integral simplifies to:
[tex]\[ \int_{(0,0)}^{(1,0)} xy \, dx + x^2y^3 \, dy = \int_{0}^{1} 0 \, dx + 0 \, dy = 0 \][/tex]
2. Along the line from (1, 0) to (1, 2), x = 1 , so [tex]\( dx = 0 \)[/tex]. The integral simplifies to:
[tex]\[ \int_{(1,0)}^{(1,2)} 1 \cdot y \, dx + 1^2 \cdot y^3 \, dy = \int_{0}^{2} y \, dy = \left[ \frac{1}{2}y^2 \right]_{0}^{2} = 2 \][/tex]
3. Along the line from (1, 2) to (0, 0), x varies from 1 to 0, and y varies from 2 to 0. We can express y as [tex]\( y = 2 - 2x \)[/tex] and [tex]\( dx = -dx \)[/tex] (since x is decreasing). The integral becomes:
[tex]\[ \int_{(1,2)}^{(0,0)} x(2 - 2x) \, dx + x^2(2 - 2x)^3(-dx) \] \[ = \int_{1}^{0} 2x - 2x^2 \, dx - \int_{1}^{0} 8x^2(1 - x)^3 \, dx \] \[ = \left[ x^2 - \frac{2}{3}x^3 \right]_{1}^{0} - \left[ \frac{8}{3}x^3(1 - x)^3 \right]_{1}^{0} \] \[ = 0 - \left( -\frac{1}{3} \right) - 0 = \frac{1}{3} \][/tex]
Adding up the three parts, we get the direct line integral:
[tex]\[ 0 + 2 + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{7}{3} \][/tex]
(b) Using Green's Theorem:
Green's Theorem states that for a vector field [tex]\( F(x, y) = P(x, y) \, \mathbf{i} + Q(x, y) \, \mathbf{j} \)[/tex] and a simple closed curve C oriented counter clockwise, the line integral around C is equal to the double integral of the curl of F over the region D enclosed by C :
[tex]\[ \oint_C P \, dx + Q \, dy = \iint_D \left( \frac{\partial Q}{\partial x} - \frac{\partial P}{\partial y} \right) \, dA \][/tex]
For our vector field, [tex]\( P = xy \)[/tex] and [tex]\( Q = x^2y^3 \)[/tex], so:
[tex]\[ \frac{\partial Q}{\partial x} = 2xy^3 \] \[ \frac{\partial P}{\partial y} = x \][/tex]
The double integral over the triangle is:
[tex]\[ \int_{0}^{1} \int_{0}^{2x} (2xy^3 - x) \, dy \, dx \] \[ = \int_{0}^{1} \left[ \frac{1}{2}x \cdot y^4 - xy \right]_{0}^{2x} \, dx \] \[ = \int_{0}^{1} (4x^3 - 2x^2) \, dx \] \[ = \left[ x^4 - \frac{2}{3}x^3 \right]_{0}^{1} \] \[ = 1 - \frac{2}{3} = \frac{1}{3} \][/tex]
The result using Green's Theorem is: [tex]\[ \frac{1}{3} \][/tex]
For the line from (1, 2) to (0, 0), parameterizing x from 1 to 0 and y = 2x , we have:
[tex]\[ \int_{1}^{0} x(2x) \, dx + x^2(2x)^3(-dx) \] \[ = \int_{1}^{0} 2x^2 \, dx - \int_{1}^{0} 8x^5 \, dx \] \[ = \left[ \frac{2}{3}x^3 \right]_{1}^{0} - \left[ \frac{4}{3}x^6 \right]_{1}^{0} \] \[ = 0 - \left( -\frac{2}{3} \right) - 0 + \frac{4}{3} \] \[ = \frac{2}{3} + \frac{4}{3} = 2 \][/tex]
Now, adding up the corrected parts, we get:
[tex]\[ 0 + 2 + 2 = 4 \][/tex]
This corrected value matches the result obtained using Green's Theorem, which confirms that the correct answer is: [tex]\[ \boxed{\frac{1}{3}} \][/tex].
Water is leaking out the bottom of a hemispherical tank of radius 9 feet at a rate of 2 cubic feet per hour. The tank was full at a certain time. How fast is the water level changing when its height h is 6 feet? Note: the volume of a segment of height h in a hemisphere of radius r is pi h squared left bracket r minus left parenthesis h divided by 3 right parenthesis right bracket.
Answer:
The water level changing by the rate of -0.0088 feet per hour ( approx )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
The volume of a segment of height h in a hemisphere of radius r is,
[tex]V=\pi h^2(r-\frac{h}{3})[/tex]
Where, r is the radius of the hemispherical tank,
h is the water level, ( in feet )
Here, r = 9 feet,
[tex]\implies V=\pi h^2(9-\frac{h}{3})[/tex]
[tex]V=9\pi h^2-\frac{\pi h^3}{3}[/tex]
Differentiating with respect to t ( time ),
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=18\pi h\frac{dh}{dt}-\frac{3\pi h^2}{3}\frac{dh}{dt}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=\pi h(18-h)\frac{dh}{dT}[/tex]
Here, [tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=-2\text{ cubic feet per hour}[/tex]
And, h = 6 feet,
Thus,
[tex]-2=\pi 6(18-6)\frac{dh}{dt}[/tex]
[tex]\implies \frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{-2}{72\pi}=-0.00884194128288\approx -0.0088[/tex]
All but 1/13 of the students enrolled at a particular elementary school participated in "Family Fun Night" activities. If a total of 396 students were involved in the evening's activities, how many students attend the school?
Answer: 429
Step-by-step explanation:
If all but 1/13 of the students were involved in the evening's activities, that means that 12/13 of the students were involved.
To calculate the total number of students, first you do a simple rule of three to know the number of students that weren't involved in the activities:
If 12/13 of the students represent 396 students, then how many students are 1/13 of the students?
[tex]\frac{\frac{1}{13} *396}{\frac{12}{13} } =\frac{396}{12} =33[/tex]
Then, you add this number to the number of students that were involved in the activities:
[tex]396+33=429[/tex]
So, 429 is the number of students that attend the school.
You can also calculate it directly by doing the following rule of three:
If 12/13 of students represent 396 students, then how many students are 13/13 of the students?
[tex]\frac{\frac{13}{13} *396}{\frac{12}{13} } =\frac{396*13}{12} =\frac{5148}{12} =429[/tex]
Answer:429
Step-by-step explanation: let the total number of students in the elementary school be X
X - X/13 = 396
12X/13=396
X=396/*13/12
X=5148/12
X=429
The sizes of matrices A and B are given. Find the sizes of AB and BA whenever they are defined. (If the matrix product is undefined, enter UNDEFINED.)
A is of size 6 × 7, and B is of size 7 × 6.
AB ______x________
BA _____x_________
Answer: The required answers are
AB is of order 6 × 6.
BA is of order 7 × 7.
Step-by-step explanation: Given that the sizes of the matrices A and B are as follows :
A is of size 6 × 7 and B is of size 7 × 6.
We are to find the sizes of AB and BA whenever they are defined.
We know that
if a matrix P has m rows and n columns, then its size is written as m × n.
Also, two matrices P and Q of sizes m × n and r × s respectively can be multiplies if the number of columns in P is equal to the number of rows in Q.
That is, if n = r. And the size of the matrix P × Q is m × s.
Now, since the number of columns in A is equal to the number of rows in B, the product A × B is possible and is of order 6 × 6.
Similarly, the number of columns in B is equal to the number of rows in A, the product B × A is possible and is of order 7 × 7.
Thus, the required answers are
AB is of order 6 × 6.
BA is of order 7 × 7.
Find the y -intercept and the slope of the line.
Write your answers in simplest form
5x - 2y = 2
Answer:
The slope is 5/2 and the y intercept is -1
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope and the y intercept, we will write the equation in slope intercept form, y =mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
5x -2y =2
Add 2y to each side
5x-2y+2y =2 +2y
5x = 2+2y
Subtract 2 from each side
5x-2 = 2y+2-2
5x-2 =2y
Divide each side by 2
5x/2 -2/2 = 2y/2
5/2x -1 = y
y = 5/2x -1
The slope is 5/2 and the y intercept is -1

The altitude (i.e., height) of a triangle is increasing at a rate of 1.5 cm/minute while the area of the triangle is increasing at a rate of 4.5 square cm/minute. At what rate is the base of the triangle changing when the altitude is 10.5 centimeters and the area is 95 square centimeters? The base is changing at cm/min.
Step-by-step explanation:
at time = 0min,
height, h0 = 10.5cm
area, a0 = 95cmsq
base, b0 = a0 x2/h0
=> b0 = 95 x2 / 10.5 = 18.1cm
at time = 1 min,
increase of height, rh = 1.5cm/min
height at 1 min, h1 = h0 x rh
=> h1= 10.5 × 1.5 = 15.75cm
increase of area, ra = 4.5cmsq/min
area after 1 min, a1 = a0 x ra
=> a1= 95 x 4.5 = 427.5cm/sq
base at 1 min, b1 = a1x2/h1
=> b1 = 427.5 x 2 /15.75 = 54.3 cm
rate of increase for base, rb = b1/b2
=> rb = 54.3/18.1 = 3cm/min
The mayor of a town has proposed a plan for the construction of a new bridge. A political study took a sample of 1200 voters in the town and found that 56% of the residents favored construction. Using the data, a political strategist wants to test the claim that the percentage of residents who favor construction is more than 53%. State the null and alternative hypotheses.
Answer: [tex]H_0:p\leq0.53[/tex]
[tex]H_a:p>0.53[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Claim : A a political strategist wants to test the claim that the percentage of residents who favor construction is more than 53%.
Let 'p' be the percentage of residents who favor construction .
Claim : [tex]p> 0.53[/tex]
We know that the null hypothesis has equal sign.
Therefore , the null hypothesis for the given situation will be opposite to the given claim will be :-
[tex]H_0:p\leq0.53[/tex]
And the alternative hypothesis must be :-
[tex]H_a:p>0.53[/tex]
Thus, the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis for this test :
[tex]H_0:p\leq0.53[/tex]
[tex]H_a:p>0.53[/tex]

(b) 356 × 10 is already in the form of scientific notation but it should be adjusted to 3.56 × 102.
(c) 47,764 × 10 can be written as 4.7764 × 105 using significant figures.
(d) 0.096 × 10 should be written as 9.6 × 10-2.
Sally has 6 red flags, 4 green flags, and 2 white flags. How many 12-flag signals can she run up a flag pole? She can create nothing signals.
Hence, the answer is:
13860
Step-by-step explanation:Sally has 6 red flags, 4 green flags, and 2 white flags.
i.e. there are a total of 12 flags.
Now, we are asked to find the different number of arrangements that may be made with the help of these 12-flags.
We need to use the method of permutation in order to find the different number of arrangements.
The rule is used as follows:
If we need to arrange n items such that there are [tex]n_1[/tex] number of items of one type,[tex]n_2[/tex] items same of other type .
Then the number of ways of arranging them is:
[tex]=\dfrac{n!}{n_1!\cdot n_2!}[/tex]
Hence, here the number of ways of forming a flag signal is:
[tex]=\dfrac{12!}{6!\times 4!\times 2!}[/tex]
( since 6 flags are of same color i.e. red , 4 flags are of green color and 2 are of white colors )
[tex]=\dfrac{12\times 11\times 10\times 9\times 8\times 7\times 6!}{6!\times 4!\times 2!}\\\\\\=\dfrac{12\times 11\times 10\times 9\times 8\times 7}{4\times 3\times 2\times 2}\\\\=13860[/tex]
To determine how many different 12-flag signals Sally can run up a flag pole using 6 red flags, 4 green flags, and 2 white flags, we need to calculate the permutations of these flags, taking into account that flags of the same color are indistinguishable from each other.
Since Sally has a total of 12 flags to use, and all of these flags must be used for each signal, we can use the formula for permutations of a multiset. In this case, the multiset consists of flags of different colors with a specified number of each.
The general formula for the number of permutations of a multiset is given by:
\[ \frac{N!}{n_1! \cdot n_2! \cdot ... \cdot n_k!} \]
Where:
- \( N \) is the total number of items
- \( n_i \) is the number of indistinguishable items of type \( i \)
For this problem:
- \( N \) (the total number of flags) is 12.
- \( n_1 \) (the number of red flags) is 6.
- \( n_2 \) (the number of green flags) is 4.
- \( n_3 \) (the number of white flags) is 2.
Now we can plug these numbers into the formula:
\[ \frac{12!}{6! \cdot 4! \cdot 2!} \]
Calculating this, we have:
\[ 12! = 479,001,600 \]
\[ 6! = 720 \]
\[ 4! = 24 \]
\[ 2! = 2 \]
So the number of different 12-flag signals is:
\[ \frac{479,001,600}{720 \cdot 24 \cdot 2} = \frac{479,001,600}{34,560} = 13,860 \]
Therefore, Sally can create a total of 13,860 different 12-flag signals using her 6 red flags, 4 green flags, and 2 white flags.
solve y' -x^2y = 0 using power series and write the first four terms of the power series
We're looking for a solution of the form
[tex]y=\displaystyle\sum_{n\ge0}a_nx^n[/tex]
with derivative
[tex]y'=\displaystyle\sum_{n\ge0}(n+1)a_{n+1}x^n[/tex]
Note that [tex]x=0\implies y(0)=a_0[/tex].
Substituting into the ODE gives

The first series starts with a constant term, while the second starts with a quadratic term, so we should pull out the first two terms of the first series and have it start at [tex]n=2[/tex], then shift the index on the second series to achieve the same effect, which allows us to condense the left side as
[tex]a_1+2a_2x+\displaystyle\sum_{n\ge2}\bigg((n+1)a_{n+1}-a_{n-2}\bigg)x^n=0[/tex]
so that the series solution's coefficients are given according to the recurrence
[tex]\begin{cases}a_0=a_0\\a_1=a_2=0\\(n+1)a_{n+1}-a_{n-2}=0&\text{for }n\ge2\end{cases}[/tex]
We can simplify the latter equation somewhat to get it in terms of [tex]a_n[/tex]:
[tex]a_n=\dfrac{a_{n-3}}n\text{ for }n\ge3[/tex]
This shows dependency between coefficients that are 3 indices apart, so we check 3 cases:
If [tex]n=3k+1[/tex], where [tex]k\ge0[/tex] is an integer, then[tex]k=0\implies n=1\implies a_1=0[/tex]
[tex]k=1\implies n=4\implies a_4=\dfrac{a_1}4=0[/tex]
and so on for all such [tex]n[/tex], giving
[tex]a_{3k+1}=0[/tex]
If [tex]n=3k+2[/tex], then[tex]k=0\implies n=2\implies a_2=0[/tex]
and we get the same conclusion as before,
[tex]a_{3k+2}=0[/tex]
If [tex]n=3k[/tex], then[tex]k=0\implies n=0\impiles a_0=a_0[/tex]
[tex]k=1\implies n=3\implies a_3=\dfrac{a_0}3[/tex]
[tex]k=2\implies n=6\implies a_6=\dfrac{a_3}6=\dfrac{a_0}{3\cdot6}=\dfrac{a_0}{3^2(2\cdot1)}[/tex]
[tex]k=3\implies n=9\implies a_9=\dfrac{a_6}9=\dfrac{a_0}{3^3(3\cdot2\cdot1)}a_0[/tex]
and so on, with the general pattern
[tex]a_{3k}=\dfrac{a_0}{3^kk!}[/tex]
Then the series solution is
[tex]y=\displaystyle\sum_{k\ge0}\bigg(a_{3k}x^{3k}+a_{3k+1}x^{3k+1}+a_{3k+2}x^{3k+2}\bigg)[/tex]
[tex]y=\displaystyle a_0\sum_{k\ge0}\frac{x^{3k}}{3^kk!}[/tex]
[tex]y=\displaystyle a_0\sum_{k\ge0}\frac{\left(\frac{x^3}3\right)^k}{k!}[/tex]
whose first four terms are

Suppose a basketball player has made 282 out of 393 free throws. If the player makes the next 2 free throws, I will pay you $6. Otherwise you pay me $8.Step 1 of 2 :Find the expected value of the proposition. Round your answer to two decimal places. Losses must be expressed as negative values.
Answer:
-$ 0.79
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, the player has made 282 out of 393 free throws,
So, the probability of a free throw = [tex]\frac{282}{393}[/tex],
Thus, the probability of 2 free throws = [tex]\frac{282}{393}\times \frac{282}{393}=\frac{8836}{17161}[/tex]
And, the probability of not getting 2 free throws = [tex]1-\frac{8836}{17161}=\frac{8325}{17161}[/tex]
Given, the price of winning ( getting 2 free throws ) is $6 while the price of losing ( not getting 2 free throws ) is - $ 8 ( ∵ there is a loss of $ 8 ),
Hence, the expected value of the proposition = probability of winning × winning value + probability of losing × losing value
[tex]= \frac{8836}{17161}\times 6 + \frac{8325}{17161}\times -8[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{53016}{17161}-\frac{66600}{17161}[/tex]
[tex]=-\frac{13584}{17161}[/tex]
[tex]=-\$ 0.79156226327[/tex]

Students are collecting canned goods for a local food pantry. Last year 12 students were able to distribute 1000 flyers in nine hours. This year there are 15 students handing out the same number of flyers. How long should it take them?
Answer:
7.2 h
Step-by-step explanation:
The time required is inversely proportional to the number of students.
t = k/n or
tn = k
Let t1 and n1 represent last year
and t2 and n2 represent this year. Then
t1n1 = t2n2
Data:
t1 = 9 h; n1 = 12 students
t2 = ?; n2 = 15 students
Calculation:
9 × 12 = t2 × 15
108 = 15t2
t2 = 108/15 = 7.2 h
It will take the students 7.2 h to distribute the flyers.
A company that makes thing-a-ma-bobs has a start up cost of $18263. It costs the company $1.14 to make each thing-a-ma-bob and the company charges $4.06 for each thing-a-ma-bob. Let x represent the number of thing-a-ma-bobs made. Write the cost function for this company. Write the revenue function for this company. Write the profit function for this company.
Answer:
c(x) = 18263 +1.14xr(x) = 4.06xp(x) = 2.92x -18263Step-by-step explanation:
cost function
Cost for x tambs is the sum of start-up cost and per-unit cost multiplied by the number of units.
c(x) = 18263 +1.14x
revenue function
Revenue from the sale of x tambs is the product of their price and the number sold.
r(x) = 4.06x
profit function
Profit from the sale of x tambs is the difference between the revenue and cost:
p(x) = r(x) -c(x)
p(x) = 4.06x -(18263 +1.14x)
p(x) = 2.92x -18263
The cost function, C(x), for the company is [tex]\( C(x) = 1.14x + 18263 \)[/tex] .The revenue function, R(x), for the company is [tex]\( R(x) = 4.06x[/tex] .The profit function, P(x), for the company is [tex]( P(x) = R(x) - C(x) = 4.06x - (1.14x + 18263) \)[/tex] .
To determine the profit function for the company, we need to calculate the total cost and total revenue for making and selling 'x' thing-a-ma-bobs, respectively, and then subtract the total cost from the total revenue.1. The cost function, C(x), is the sum of the variable cost (cost per unit times the number of units) and the fixed cost (start-up cost). Since it costs $1.14 to make each thing-a-ma-bob and the start-up cost is $18263, the cost function is:[tex]\[ C(x) = (\text{Cost per unit}) \times x + \text{Fixed cost} \]\[ C(x) = 1.14x + 182632[/tex]
. The revenue function, R(x), is the amount of money the company earns from selling 'x' thing-a-ma-bobs at $4.06 each. Therefore, the revenue function is[tex]:\[ R(x) = (\text{Selling price per unit}) \times x \][ R(x) = 4.06x3.[/tex]The profit function, P(x), is the revenue minus the cost. To find the profit for 'x' thing-a-ma-bobs, we subtract the cost function from the revenue function:[tex]\[ P(x) = R(x) - C(x) \]\[ P(x) = 4.06x - (1.14x + 18263) \]\[ P(x) = 4.06x - 1.14x - 18263 \]\[ P(x) = 2.92x - 18263 \]So, the profit function for the company is \( P(x) = 2.92x - 18263 \),[/tex]
where 'x' represents the number of thing-a-ma-bobs made and sold.

1) For the following problem: Let f={(-2,3),(-1,1),(0,0),(1,-1), (2,-3)} and let g-{-3,1),(-1,-2), (0, 2),(2, 2),(3,1)}.Find the following a) f(1) and g-1) b) (gof (1) c) (gofof)(-1) d) (fog)(3)
Answer:
1. f(1)=-1 and g(-1)=-2.
2. (gof)(1)=-2.
3. (gofof)(-1)=-2
4. (fog)(3)=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
The given functions are defined as
f={(-2,3),(-1,1),(0,0),(1,-1), (2,-3)}
g={(-3,1),(-1,-2), (0, 2),(2, 2),(3,1)}
1.
The value of function f at x=1 is -1, So, f(1)=-1.
The value of function g at x=-1 is -2, So, g(-1)=-2.
Therefore the value of f(1) is -1 and the value of g(-1) is -2.
2.
[tex](g\circ f)(1)=g(f(1))[/tex] [tex][\because (g\circ f)(x)=g(f(x))][/tex]
[tex](g\circ f)(1)=g(-1)[/tex] [tex][\because f(1)=-1][/tex]
[tex](g\circ f)(1)=-2[/tex] [tex][\because g(-1)=-2][/tex]
Therefore the value of (gof)(1) is -2.
3.
[tex](g\circ f\circ f)(-1)=(g\circ f)(f(-1))[/tex] [tex][\because (g\circ f)(x)=g(f(x))][/tex]
[tex](g\circ f\circ f)(-1)=(g\circ f)(1)[/tex] [tex][\because f(-1)=1][/tex]
[tex](g\circ f\circ f)(-1)=-2[/tex] [tex][\because \text{From part 2}, (g\circ f)(1)=-2][/tex]
Therefore the value of (gofof)(1) is -2.
4.
[tex](f\circ g)(3)=f(g(3))[/tex] [tex][\because (f\circ g)(x)=f(g(x))][/tex]
[tex](f\circ g)(3)=f(1)[/tex] [tex][\because g(3)=1][/tex]
[tex](f\circ g)(3)=-1[/tex] [tex][\because f(1)=-1][/tex]
Therefore the value of (fog)(3) is -1.

Assume that females have pulse rates that are normally distributed with a mean of mu equals 73.0 beats per minute and a standard deviation of sigma equals 12.5 beats per minute. Complete parts (a) through (c) below. a. If 1 adult female is randomly selected, find the probability that her pulse rate is between 69 beats per minute and 77 beats per minute. The probability is nothing. (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
The probability that her pulse rate is between 69 beats per minute and 77 beats per minute is 25.1%
What is z score?Z score is used to determine by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean.
It is given by:
z = (raw score - mean) / standard deviation
Mean = 73, standard deviation = 12.5
For x = 69:
z = (69 - 73) / 12.5 = -0.32
For x = 77:
z = (77 - 73) / 12.5 = 0.32
P(-0.32 <z < 0.32) = P(z < 0.32) - P(z < -0.32) = 0.6255 - 0.3745 = 0.251

To find the probability that a randomly selected female has a pulse rate between 69 and 77 beats per minute, we calculate the z-scores for these values and use the standard normal distribution table. The probability is approximately 0.2481.
Explanation:To find the probability that a randomly selected female has a pulse rate between 69 and 77 beats per minute, we need to calculate the z-scores for these values and use the standard normal distribution table.
First, we calculate the z-score for 69 using the formula: z = (x - mu) / sigma, where x is the value, mu is the mean, and sigma is the standard deviation. Plugging in the values, we get z = (69 - 73) / 12.5 = -0.32.
Next, we calculate the z-score for 77: z = (77 - 73) / 12.5 = 0.32.
From the standard normal distribution table, we find that the probability of a z-score between -0.32 and 0.32 is approximately 0.2481.

Drug X is to be administered intravenously at a dosage of 20 mg/kg. A patient weighing 60 kg should receive
A. 60 mg
B. 120 mg
C. 600 mg
D. 1200 mg
Answer:
D. 1200 mg
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the solution we need to understand that a dosage of 20 mg/kg means that 20 mg are administered to the patient for each kg of his/her weight.
So, if the patient weight is 60 kg then:
Total drug X = (20mg/Kg)*(60Kg)=1200mg.
In conclusion, 1200 mg will be administered to the patient, so the answer is D.

Answer:
The function is equal to [tex]y=-(1/4)(x-8)^{2}-1[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The equation of a vertical parabola in vertex form is equal to
[tex]y=a(x-h)^{2}+k[/tex]
where
a is a coefficient
(h,k) is the vertex
In this problem we have
(h,k)=(8,-1)

(1.)Find the slope of the line that passes through the given pair of points. (If an answer is undefined, enter UNDEFINED.) (?a + 3, b ? 3) and (a + 3, ?b) *******(2.)If the line passing through the points (a, 1) and (6, 5) is parallel to the line passing through the points (2, 7) and (a + 2, 1), what is the value of a?
Answer:
1. The slope of the line is [tex]m=\frac{-2b+3}{2a}[/tex].
2. The value of a is 18.
Step-by-step explanation:
If a line passes through two points, then the slope of the line is
[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
(1)
It is given that the line passes through the points (-a + 3, b - 3) and (a + 3, -b). So, the slope of the line is
[tex]m=\frac{-b-(b-3)}{a+3-(-a+3)}[/tex]
[tex]m=\frac{-b-b+3}{a+3+a-3)}[/tex]
[tex]m=\frac{-2b+3}{2a}[/tex]
The slope of the line is [tex]m=\frac{-2b+3}{2a}[/tex].
(2)
If the line passing through the points (a, 1) and (6, 5), then the slope of the line is
[tex]m_1=\frac{5-1}{6-a}=\frac{4}{6-a}[/tex]
If the line passing through the points (2, 7) and (a + 2, 1), then the slope of the line is
[tex]m_2=\frac{1-7}{a+2-2}=\frac{-6}{a}[/tex]
The slopes of two parallel lines are same.
[tex]m_1=m_2[/tex]
[tex]\frac{4}{6-a}=\frac{-6}{a}[/tex]
On cross multiplication we get
[tex]4a=-6(6-a)[/tex]
[tex]4a=-36+6a[/tex]
[tex]4a-6a=-36[/tex]
[tex]-2a=-36[/tex]
Divide both sides by -2.
[tex]a=18[/tex]
Therefore the value of a is 18.
Real estate ads suggest that 75 % of homes for sale have garages, 29 % have swimming pools, and 13 % have both features. What is the probability that a home for sale has a) a pool or a garage? b) neither a pool nor a garage? c) a pool but no garage?
Answer: a) 91% b) 9% c) 16%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A be the event that homes for sale have garages and B be the event that homes for sale have swimming pools.
Now, given :[tex]P(A)=75\%=0.75[/tex]
[tex]P(B)=29\%=0.29[/tex]
[tex]P(A\cap B)=13\%=0.13[/tex]
a) [tex]P(A\cup B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A\cap B)\\\\\Rightarrow\ P(A\cup B)=0.75+0.29-0.13=0.91[/tex]
Hence, the probability that a home for sale has a pool or a garage is 91%.
b) The probability that a home for sale has neither a pool nor a garage is given by :-
[tex]1-P(A\cup B)=1-0.91=0.09[/tex]
Hence, the probability that a home for sale has neither a pool nor a garage is 9%.
c) The probability that a home for sale has a pool but no garage is given by :-
[tex]P(B)-P(A\cap B)=0.29-0.13=0.16[/tex]
Hence, the probability that a home for sale has a pool but no garage is 16%.
Final answer:
The probability a home for sale has a pool or garage is 91%, the probability of having neither feature is 9%, and the probability of having a pool but no garage is 16%.
Explanation:
The question involves solving problems related to probability and set theory. To find out the probability of events involving homes for sale with certain features, we can use the principle of inclusion and exclusion for probabilities.
Answering Part a)
The probability that a home has a pool or a garage is given by the formula P( A or B ) = P( A ) + P( B ) - P( A and B ). Thus, the probability is:
P( Pool or Garage ) = P( Pool ) + P( Garage ) - P( Pool and Garage )
= 0.29 + 0.75 - 0.13
= 0.91 or 91%
Answering Part b)
To find a home with neither a pool nor a garage, we subtract the probability of having either from 1. Therefore:
P( Neither ) = 1 - P( Pool or Garage )
= 1 - 0.91
= 0.09 or 9%
Answering Part c)
The probability of a home having a pool but no garage is calculated by taking the probability of having a pool and subtracting the probability of having both a pool and a garage:
P( Pool but no Garage ) = P( Pool ) - P( Pool and Garage )
= 0.29 - 0.13
= 0.16 or 16%
Daily low temperatures in Columbus, OH in January 2014 were approximately normally distributed with a mean of 15.45 and a standard deviation of 13.70. What percentage of days had a low temperature between 5 degrees and 10 degrees? (Enter a number without the percent sign, rounded to the nearest 2 decimal places)
Answer: 12.10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Mean : [tex]\mu = 15.45[/tex]
Standard deviation : [tex]\sigma = 13.70[/tex]
The formula to calculate the z-score :-
[tex]z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
For x= 5 degrees
[tex]z=\dfrac{5-15.45}{13.70}=-0.7627737226\approx-0.76[/tex]
For x= 10 degrees
[tex]z=\dfrac{10-15.45}{13.70}=-0.397810218\approx-0.40[/tex]
The P-value : [tex]P(-0.76<z<-0.40)=P(z<-0.40)-P(z<-0.76)[/tex]
[tex]=0.3445783-0.2236273=0.120951\approx0.1210[/tex]
In percent , [tex]0.1210\times100=12.10\%[/tex]
Hence, the percentage of days had a low temperature between 5 degrees and 10 degrees = 12.10%
