Assume that the heights of men are normally distributed. A random sample of 16 men have a mean height of 67.5 inches and a standard deviation of 3.2 inches. Construct a 99% confidence interval for the population standard deviation, σ. (2.2, 5.4) (2.2, 6.0) (1.2, 3.2) (2.2, 5.8)

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a function [tex]\phi(x)=x^2-x^{-1}[/tex]

We have to find that given function is an explicit solution to the linear equation

[tex]\frac{d^2y}{dx^2}-\frac{2}{x^2}y=0[/tex]

If given function is an explicit solution of given linear equation then it satisfied the given differential equation

Differentiate w.r.t x

Then we get [tex]\phi'(x)=2x+x^{-2}[/tex]

Again differentiate w.r.t x

Then we get

[tex]\phi''(x)=2-\frac{2}{x^3}[/tex]

Substitute all values in the given differential equation

[tex]2-\frac{2}{x^3}-\frac{2}{x^2}(x^2-x^{-1})[/tex]

=[tex]2-\frac{2}{x^3}-2+\frac{2}{x^3}=0[/tex]

Hence, given function is an explicit solution of given differential equation.

Therefore, answer is yes.

Answer:

8.82 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the monthly payment formula is,

[tex]P=\frac{PV(r)}{1-(1+r)^{-n}}[/tex]

Where, PV is the present value of the loan,

r is the rate per month,

n is number of months,

Here,

PV =  $ 25,000,

Annual rate = 5.2 % = 0.052 ⇒ Monthly rate, r = [tex]\frac{0.052}{12}[/tex]

( 1 year = 12 months )

P = $ 295,

By substituting the values,

[tex]295=\frac{25000(\frac{0.052}{12})}{1-(1+\frac{0.052}{12})^{-n}}[/tex]

By the graphing calculator,

We get,

[tex]n = 105.84[/tex]

Hence, the time ( in years ) = [tex]\frac{105.84}{12}=8.82[/tex]

The answer is - budget constraint

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the budget constraint is determined by the relative price of the two goods, which is calculated by taking the price of one good and dividing it by the price of the other good.  

A budget constraint happens when a consumer demonstrates limited consumption patterns by a certain income.

Final answer:

The probability that the second character will die given that the first character dies is 53.33%. This is known as conditional probability.

Explanation:

To find the probability that the second character will die given that the first character dies, we use the concept of conditional probability.

The formula for conditional probability is P(B|A) = P(A and B) / P(A), where P(B|A) is the probability of event B occurring given that event A has occurred, P(A and B) will be the probability of both events A and B occurring, and P(A) is the probability of event A occurring.

In this scenario, event A is the first character dying, and event B is the second character dying. The student has already stated there is a 70% chance that the first character will survive, which means there is a 30% (100% - 70%) chance that the first character will die.

They've also stated a 16% chance that both characters will die. Applying the formula gives us P(B|A) = P(A and B) / P(A) = 0.16 / 0.30 = 0.5333, or 53.33%.

Therefore, the probability that the second character will die given that the first character dies is 53.33%. This kind of probability is called conditional probability.

Answer:

[tex]y = 700 + 50x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Algebraic Equations.

If the company has a fixed cost (fixed being a keyword) of $700, then that cost will be a steady value before they even start to manufacture the bicycles. Afterwards they have to spend $50 on each bicycle they produce. Since we do not know the amount of bicycles that have been produced we can use the variable x to represent this.

[tex]y = 700 + 50x[/tex]

The equation above states that the company pays $700 plus $50 for every bike produced which comes out to a total of y.

[tex]f(x)=\displaystyle\int_{-6}^x\sqrt{36-t^2}\,\mathrm dt[/tex]

The integrand is defined for [tex]36-t^2\ge0[/tex], or [tex]-6\le t\le6[/tex], so the domain should be the same, [tex]-6\le x\le6[/tex].

When [tex]x=-6[/tex], the integral is 0.

The integrand is non-negative for all [tex]x[/tex] in the domain, which means the value of [tex]f(x)[/tex] increases monotonically over this domain. When [tex]x=6[/tex], the integral gives the area of the semicircle centered at the origin with radius 6, which is [tex]\dfrac\pi26^2=18\pi[/tex], so the range is [tex]\boxed{0\le f(x)\le 18\pi}[/tex].

The range of the function f(x) is the integral from -6 to x of the square root of the quantity 36 minus t squared is [0, 6*π] because the total area of the semicircle is the maximum value.

The function f(x) is the integral from -6 to x of the square root of the quantity 36 minus t squared. This is a known geometrical shape, which is a semicircle with radius 6. To find the range of this function, we need to know the possible outcomes of this function. In general, for a semicircle of radius r, the values of the square root of the quantity r squared minus t squared will vary from 0 to r, both inclusive. So, if you consider the function from -6 to 6, the range would be [0, 6*π] because the total area of the semicircle is the maximum value.

Answer:

B. 200 doses

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

1 dose is required for 100 mg,

Since, 1 mg = 0.001 g,

⇒ 100 mg = 0.1 g

⇒ 1 dost is required for 0.1 g,

Thus, the ratio of doses and quantity ( in gram ) is [tex]\frac{1}{0.1}=10[/tex]

Let x be the doses required for 20 grams,

So, the ratio of doses and quantity is [tex]\frac{x}{20}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \frac{x}{20}=10[/tex]

[tex]\implies x=200[/tex]

Hence, 200 doses can be obtained from 20 grams of the drug.

Option 'B' is correct.

To solve this question, we will follow these steps:
1. We need to ensure that we use the same units for both the drug amount and the dose. Since the drug amount is given in grams and the dose in milligrams, we will convert the drug amount from grams to milligrams.
2. We know that 1 gram is equivalent to 1000 milligrams.
3. Now, let's convert the drug amount from grams to milligrams:
  We have 20 grams of the drug, so the conversion to milligrams is:
  \(20 \text{ grams} \times \dfrac{1000 \text{ milligrams}}{1 \text{ gram}} = 20,000 \text{ milligrams}\)
4. Next, we will divide the total milligrams of the drug by the milligram dosage that is recommended per dose to find out how many doses we can get from the drug amount.
5. Given that each dose is 100 mg, we now divide the total drug amount in milligrams by the dose in milligrams:
  \(20,000 \text{ milligrams} \div 100 \text{ milligrams per dose} = 200 \text{ doses}\)
Therefore, from 20 grams of the drug, we can obtain 200 doses.
The correct answer is:
  B. 200 doses

and solve it for the acceleration

[tex]a = \dfrac{F}{m}[/tex]

to get the result:

[tex]a = \dfrac{28}{14}=2[/tex]

Answer:

2 m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

F = applied force in the horizontal direction = 64 N

f = frictional force acting between the box and the floor = 36 N

m = mass of the box = 14 kg

a = acceleration of the box = ?

Force equation along the horizontal direction is given as

F - f = ma

Inserting the values

64 - 36 = 14 a

28 = 14 a

a =  [tex]\frac{28}{14}[/tex]

The given sequence can be expressed as a sequence of partial sums by finding the differences between terms and adding them to the previous term. The closed formula for the nth partial sum is Sn = n/2(3n - 1), where Sn represents the nth partial sum.

To express the given sequence as a sequence of partial sums, we can find the differences between consecutive terms:

5 - 1 = 4

12 - 5 = 7

22 - 12 = 10

35 - 22 = 13

51 - 35 = 16

From these differences, we can observe that each term in the sequence is obtained by adding the difference to the previous term. Therefore, the sequence can be written as a sequence of partial sums:

1, 1+4, 1+4+7, 1+4+7+10, 1+4+7+10+13, ...

To find a closed formula for the nth partial sum, we can use the formula for the sum of an arithmetic series:

Sn = n/2(a1 + an), where Sn represents the nth partial sum, a1 is the first term, and an is the nth term.

For the given sequence, a1 = 1 and the difference between consecutive terms is 3, so the nth term can be represented as an = 1 + 3(n-1). Substituting these values into the formula, we get:

Sn = n/2(1 + 1 + 3(n-1)) = n/2(2 + 3(n-1)) = n/2(3n - 1).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

In this question we are using the Bayes' theorem,

where,

P(E1) = P(E2) = P(E3) = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

As there is an equal probability assign for choosing a coin.

Given that,

it comes up heads

so, let A be the event that heads occurs

then,

P(A/E1) = 1

P(A/E2) = 0

P(A/E3) =  [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Now, we have to calculate the probability that the opposite side of coin is tails.

that is,

P(E3/A) = ?

∴ P(E3/A) = [tex]\frac{P(E3)P(A/E3)}{P(E1)P(A/E1) + P(E2)P(A/E2) + P(E3)P(A/E3) }[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{(1/3)(1/2)}{(1/3)(1) + 0 + (1/2)(1/3)}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{6}{3}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

= 0.3333 ⇒ probability that the opposite face is tails.

Given a double-headed coin, a double-tailed coin, and a regular coin, the probability that the opposite face is tails after tossing a head is 33.33%, assuming we picked one coin randomly and tossed it to see a head.

The student is asking about a problem involving conditional probability, with the specific condition that one of the sides that came up is a head. We are given three coins: a double-headed coin, a double-tailed coin, and a regular coin. The aim is to calculate the probability that the opposite face is tails given that the tossed coin shows heads.

First, we need to consider the total number of heads that can come up when choosing any coin. This yields two heads from the double-headed coin, and one head from the regular coin, resulting in three possible heads. However, only the regular coin has a tail on the opposite side.

Consequently, the probability that the opposite face is tails given that a head has been tossed is 1 out of 3, or 33.33%.

(A+B)(A+B)=A.A+B.A+A.B+B.B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that matrices A and B are nxn matrices

We need to find (A+B)(A+B)

For understanding the multiplication of matrices let'take A is mxn and B is pxq matrices,we can multiple only when n=p,so our Ab matrices will be mxq.

We know that that in matrices AB is not equal to BA.

Now find  

(A+B)(A+B)=A.A+B.A+A.B+B.B

So from we can say that (A+B)(A+B) is not equal to A.A+2B.A+B.B because AB is not equal to BA in matrices.

So (A+B)(A+B)=A.A+B.A+A.B+B.B

The magnetic field H(z,t) of an electromagnetic wave is related to the electric field E(z,t) by a factor of the speed of light. Therefore, if E(z,t) = 4cos(6 x 10^8 t - 2z) +3 sin(6 x 10^8 t -2z), the associated magnetic field would be H(z,t) = (4/c) cos(6 x 10^8 t - 2z) +(3/c) sin(6 x 10^8 t -2z), where c is speed of light, approximately 3 x 10^8 m/s.

The question is asking for the associated magnetic field H(z,t) of an Electromagnetic wave given the electric field E(z,t). A crucial fact to know for this question is that the electric and magnetic fields in an electromagnetic wave are perpendicular to each other and the direction of propagation. They also have a constant ratio of magnitudes in free space or air, which is the speed of light given by c = 1/√εOMO. Because of these relations, we know that we can find the magnetic field by simply dividing the given electric field by the speed of light in units that match the given Electric field.

So, if E(z,t) = 4cos(6 x 10^8 t - 2z) +3 sin(6 x 10^8 t -2z), then the associated magnetic field would be H(z,t) = (4/c) cos(6 x 10^8 t - 2z) +(3/c) sin(6 x 10^8 t -2z), where c is the speed of light, approximately 3 x 10^8 m/s.

Answer:

2/13

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 4 jacks and 4 threes in a standard poker deck.

4+4 is 8

8/52=2/13

The probability of drawing either a Jack or a three from a standard deck of 52 cards is 2/13, because there are 8 such cards in a deck and the total number of cards in the deck is 52.

The question asks for the probability of drawing either a Jack or a three from a standard deck of 52 cards. To solve this, we need to count how many Jacks and threes there are in a deck. Since each suit (hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades) includes one Jack and one three, there are 4 Jacks and 4 threes in a standard deck. Therefore, there are 8 cards that satisfy the condition (either a Jack or a three).

Since the total number of cards in the deck is 52, the probability of drawing either a Jack or a three is calculated as the number of favorable outcomes (drawing a Jack or a three) divided by the total number of outcomes (drawing any card from the 52-card deck). Thus, the probability is:

Probability = (Number of Jacks + Number of threes) / Total number of cards = (4 + 4) / 52 = 8 / 52 = 2 / 13

Therefore, the probability of drawing either a Jack or a three from a standard deck of 52 cards is 2/13.

Answer:

.188 pounds per day

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Divide the amount of pounds gained by the total number of days

35/186 = .188

Answer

Approximately .188 pounds per day.

Answer:

A. number of decayed atoms = 73.197

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the answer we need to use the radioactive decay equation:

[tex]N(t)=N0*e^{kt}[/tex] where:

N0=initial radioactive atoms

t=time

k=radioactive decay constant

In our case, when t=0 we have 1,000,000 atoms, so:

[tex]1,000,000=N0*e^{k*0}[/tex]

[tex]1,000,000=N0[/tex]

Now we need to find 'k'. Using the provied information that after 365 days we have 973,635 radioactive atoms, we have:

[tex]973,635=1,000,000*e^{k*365}[/tex]

[tex]ln(973,635/1,000,000)/365=k[/tex]

[tex] -0.0000732=k[/tex]

A. atoms decayed in a day:

[tex]N(t)=1,000,000*e^{-0.0000732t}[/tex]

[tex]N(1)=1,000,000*e^{-0.0000732*1}[/tex]

[tex]N(1)= 999,926.803[/tex]

Number of atoms decayed in a day = 1,000,000 - 999,926.803 = 73.197

B. Because 'k' represents the probability of decay, then the probability that on a given day 51 radioactive atoms decayed is k=0.0000732.
