Answer:

Step Three is the error

Step-by-step explanation:

right on edge

The student made the first mistake in step 2. Use the change of base formula to rewrite the equations is incorrect.

The reason is that the change of base formula is typically used in logarithms, not when graphing systems of equations.

When solving a system of linear equations by graphing, you would typically write the equations in the form y=mx+b and then graph them on the coordinate plane to find the point of intersection.

The change of base formula is used to convert logarithms from one base to another, not to rewrite equations in general.

In this case, the student simply rewrote the equations using different notation without changing their meaning.

The correct method would be to graph the original equations and identify the x-value at the point of intersection.

Answer:

  39 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

If we assume that the 3.5 cups of concentrate make 3.5+3 = 6.5 cups of tea, we can use the proportion ...

  6.5/3.5 = x/21

to find the x cups of tea Ahab can make with 21 cups of concentrate.

Multiplying by 21, we get ...

  x = 21(6.5/3.5) = 39

Ahab can make 39 cups of tea.

To find the area of the rectangular field in square meters, we first convert the length and width from kilometers to meters. Then, we multiply the length by the width to find the area. This results in an area of 140,000 m².

To solve this problem, we must first understand what the question is asking. The question is asking for the area of a rectangular field, and the dimensions are given in kilometers. The area is found by multiplying the length times the width of a shape (in this case, a rectangle).

Then, we need to convert the kilometers to meters because the question asks for the answer in square meters. We know there are 1,000 meters in 1 kilometer. Therefore, the length of the field is 0.4 km * 1,000 = 400 meters, and the width of the field is 0.35 km * 1,000 = 350 meters.

The area is found by multiplying the length by the width, which is 400m * 350m = 140,000 m².

Answer: 28989675

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of ways to choose r things out of n things ( if order doesn't matter) is given by :_

[tex]^nC_r=\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}[/tex]

Given : In the 6/55 lottery game, a player picks six numbers from 1 to 55.

Then , the number of ways to choose 6 numbers out of 55 is  if repetition is not allowed :

[tex]^{55}C_6=\dfrac{55!}{6!(55-6)!}\\\\=\dfrac{55\times54\times53\times52\times51\times49!}{6\times5\times4\times3\times2\times1\times49!}\\\\=\dfrac{55\times54\times53\times52\times51}{6\times5\times4\times3\times2\times1}\\\\=28989675[/tex]

Hence, the player have 28989675 choices.

When repetition is not allowed, a player in the 6/55 lottery game can make 32,468,436 different choices.

When repetition is not allowed, the number of different choices a player has in the 6/55 lottery game can be determined using the concept of combinations. A combination is a selection where the order of the elements does not matter.

To calculate the number of combinations, we can use the formula:

C(n, r) = n! / (r! * (n-r)!)

In this case, n = 55 (total number of choices) and r = 6 (number of choices to be made). Substituting these values into the formula:

C(55, 6) = 55! / (6! * (55-6)!)

Simplifying further:

C(55, 6) = 55 * 54 * 53 * 52 * 51 * 50 / (6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1)

This simplifies to:

C(55, 6) = 32,468,436

Therefore, a player has 32,468,436 different choices in the 6/55 lottery game when repetition is not allowed.

Final answer:

Sally looked at 48 turkey trees and found 7/8 were too small. By multiplying 48 by the fraction 7/8, we find that 42 trees were too small.

Explanation:

The question asks us to calculate the number of turkey trees that were too small, based on the total number of trees Sally looked at and the fraction that were too small.

Sally looked at 48 trees in total and found that 7/8 of them were too small. To find the number of too small trees, we multiply the total number of trees by the fraction that were too small:

Number of too small trees = Total number of trees × Fraction too small

Number of too small trees = 48 × 7/8

Calculating this gives us:

Number of too small trees = 48 × 0.875

Number of too small trees = 42

Therefore, out of the 48 turkey trees Sally looked at, 42 of them were too small for her Thanksgiving needs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Discrete data includes numbers that are exclusively integers, i.e, ... -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7 ..... and so on. It do not include the other real numbers that are not integers. You can recognize discrete data, for example, in a grah, as there will be only isolated points and not a continuous line.

The height of a member is continuous as we can have every number between 0 and the top height. There can be 1.50 m, 1.51m, 1.5000001m, 1.65m, 1,644444449, and so on with every number (obviously, we will not have heights of 5.78 m because of simply nature). So, we discard option a.

Exactly the same as heights happens with weight. We can ahve any weight you may imagine from the less weight to the top. 100.45555555 pounds is a posible weight, for example. With this, we discard option b.

The time is also continuous. Lets think in minutes. A runner can register 7 minutes, 7.2 minutes, 7.098686 minutes, and so on for every number. We can use every fraction you imagine. So we can discard options d and e.

However the number of times is discrete, because the number of races are discrete. There are 1, 2, 3, 4,... races. We can not have 5.5 races, it is impossible. So, the number of times a runner finished ahead is discrete. There is no member that finished 7.2 times first, we can find either 7 times or 8 times, but not 7.2. So, option c is the correct.

The probability of guessing correctly within ten tries is 10/1,000,000, simplifying to 1/100,000.

This problem is related to probability. The total number of ways to form a six-digit code with numbers from 0 to 9, where numbers can be repeated, is 10^6 because there are 10 possible choices for each of the 6 places. Thus there are 1,000,000 possible codes.

The probability of you correctly guessing the code on any one try would then be 1/1,000,000. If you try ten times, each attempt independent of the others, you still have a 1/1,000,000 chance each try. Combining these ten independent events, the total probability of guessing the correct code in ten tries would be 10/1,000,000.

Therefore, your probability is 10/1,000,000, which simplifies to 1/100,000.

Answer:

P(y≤4) = 0.629

Step-by-step explanation:

you can see in attachment.

(a) 1000

(b) 11100

(c) 11095.

Step-by-step explanation:  

(a) If A1 is a subset of A2 and A2 is a subset of A3, then all the elements of A1 are in A2 and all the elements of A2 are in A3.

Then, n(A1 n A2) = 100, n(A2 n A3) = 1000 , n(A1 n A3) = 100 and n(A1 n A2 n A3) = 100.

So,  we get

[tex]n(A1\cup A2\cup A3)\\\\=n(A1)+n(A2)+n(A3)-n(A1\cap A2)-n(A2\cap A3)-n(A1\cap A3)+n(A1\cap A2\cap A3)\\\\=100+1000+1000-100-1000-100+100\\\\=1000.[/tex]

(b) If the sets are pairwise disjoint, then

n(A1 n A2) = n(A2 n A3) = n(A1 n A3) = n(A1 n A2 n A3) = 0.

So, we get

[tex]n(A1\cup A2\cup A3)\\\\=n(A1)+n(A2)+n(A3)\\\\=100+1000+10000\\\\=11100.[/tex]

(c) If  there are two elements common to each pair of sets and one element in all three sets, then

n(A1 n A2) = 2,  n(A2 n A3) = 2, n(A1 n A3) = 2 and n(A1 n A2 n A3) = 1.

So, we get

[tex]n(A1\cup A2\cup A3)\\\\=n(A1)+n(A2)+n(A3)-n(A1\cap A2)-n(A2\cap A3)-n(A1\cap A3)-n(A1\cap A2\cap A3)\\\\=100+1000+1000-2-2-2+1\\\\=11100-5\\\\=11095.[/tex]

Final answer:

The number of elements in the union of sets A1, A2, and A3 varies depending on their relationships. For subsets (a), the count is 10,000; for disjoint sets (b), it is 11,100; and when each pair has common elements plus one common to all (c), the count is 11,095.

Explanation:

Finding the Number of Elements in the Union of Sets

To find the number of elements in the union of sets A1, A2, and A3, we need to consider the given conditions.

a) A1 ⊆ A2 and A2 ⊆ A3

Since A1 is a subset of A2, and A2 is a subset of A3, all elements of A1 and A2 are included in A3. Therefore, the

number of elements in A1 ∪ A2 ∪ A3 equals the number of elements in A3, which is 10,000.

b) The Sets Are Pairwise Disjoint

If the sets are pairwise disjoint, this means they share no elements in common. We simply add the number of elements in each set to find the union's total count. This gives us 100 + 1000 + 10,000 = 11,100 elements in the union.

c) Two Elements Common to Each Pair and One in All Three

With two elements common to each pair of sets and one element in all three, we need to subtract the common elements to avoid double-counting. So, A1 ∪ A2 ∪ A3 will have 100 + 1000 + 10,000 - 2 - 2 - 2 + 1 (since 1 element is counted three times, we add it back once) which equals 11,095 elements.

There are 12,565,671,261 ways.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have to use the combination and repetition formula.

C(n + r-1, r) = [tex]\frac{(n + r-1)!}{r!(n-1)!}[/tex]

Given: n = 10 (The number of questions)

Each question is worth at least 5 points.

10 questions = 10 *5 = 50

The total = 100

r = 100 - 50

r = 50

Now we can apply the formula.

C(10 + 50 -1, 50) = [tex]\frac{(10 + 50 -1)!}{50!(10 -1)!}[/tex]

C(59, 50) = [tex]\frac{59!}{50!9!}[/tex]

There are 14,441,654 ways to assign scores to the problems on the final exam.

To find the number of ways to assign scores to the problems, we can use the concept of stars and bars. Let's consider each question as a bar and the points as stars. Since each question is worth at least 5 points, we can subtract 5 from each question's score to make sure it is at least 0. Now, we have a total of 100-5*10 = 50 points to distribute among the questions. Using stars and bars, we can find the number of ways to distribute these points.

The total number of ways to distribute 50 points among 10 questions is given by the formula (n+r-1) choose (n-1), where n is the number of questions (10) and r is the total number of points (50). Plugging in these values, we get (10+50-1) choose (10-1) = 59 choose 9 = 14,441,654 ways to assign scores to the problems.

a) [tex]P(\bar X>81.5)=1-0.933=0.067[/tex]

b) [tex]P(\bar X<69.5)=0.0062[/tex]

c) [tex]P(73.4<\bar X<84.05)=0.8755[/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Let X the random variable that represent interest on this case, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

[tex]X \sim N(\mu=77,\sigma=27)[/tex]  

And let [tex]\bar X[/tex] represent the sample mean, the distribution for the sample mean is given by:

[tex]\bar X \sim N(\mu,\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})[/tex]

On this case  [tex]\bar X \sim N(77,\frac{27}{\sqrt{81}})[/tex]

Part a

We want this probability:

[tex]P(\bar X>81.5)=1-P(\bar X<81.5)[/tex]

The best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

[tex]P(\bar X >81.5)=1-P(Z<\frac{81.5-77}{\frac{27}{\sqrt{81}}})=1-P(Z<1.5)[/tex]

[tex]P(\bar X>81.5)=1-0.933=0.067[/tex]

Part b

We want this probability:

[tex]P(\bar X\leq 69.5)[/tex]

If we apply the formula for the z score to our probability we got this:

[tex]P(\bar X \leq 69.5)=P(Z\leq \frac{69.5-77}{\frac{27}{\sqrt{81}}})=P(Z<-2.5)[/tex]

[tex]P(\bar X\leq 69.5)=0.0062[/tex]

Part c

We are interested on this probability

[tex]P(73.4<\bar X<84.05)[/tex]  

If we apply the Z score formula to our probability we got this:

[tex]P(73.4<\bar X<84.05)=P(\frac{73.4-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}<\frac{X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}<\frac{84.05-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}})[/tex]

[tex]=P(\frac{73.4-77}{\frac{27}{\sqrt{81}}}<Z<\frac{84.05-77}{\frac{27}{\sqrt{81}}})=P(-1.2<z<2.35)[/tex]

And we can find this probability on this way:

[tex]P(-1.2<z<2.35)=P(z<2.35)-P(z<-1.2)[/tex]

And in order to find these probabilities we can find tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.  

[tex]P(-1.2<z<2.35)=P(z<2.35)-P(z<-1.2)=0.9906-0.1151=0.8755[/tex]

1.- Get the slope of the line

If two lines are parallels, it means that they have the same slope.

                                 y = 1x - 10

Slope = m = 1

2.- Get the equation of the line

                               y - y1 = m(x - x1)

                               y + 29 = 1(x + 6)                 Substitution

                               y + 29 = x + 6                     Expanding

                               y = x - 23

Answer:

y = x - 23

Step-by-step explanation:

All lines parallel to the given line y = x - 10 have the same slope (1), and the same form of equaiton:  y = x + C, where C is a constant.

We know that the new line passes through (-6, -29).  Replacing x with -6, y with -29, we get:

-29 = -6 + C, and thus we find that C = -23.

Answer:

The volume should not be bigger than the volume if the cross section was a square and thus the volume enclosed would be V=12π.

Step-by-step explanation:

using cylindrical coordinates

x= rsin θ

z= rcos θ

y=y

therefore

y+z=4 → y= 4-z = 4-r cos θ

also from x²+z²=4 →  -2≤x≤2 , -2≤z≤2

therefore since y= 4-z  → 6≤y≤2 → it does not overlap with the plane y=1

V=∫∫∫dV = ∫∫∫dxdydz = ∫∫∫rdθdrdy = ∫∫rdθdr   [(y=4-r cos θ,y=1) ∫ dy] =

∫∫[(4-rcosθ) - 1]rdθdr =  ∫∫(3-rcosθ) rdθdr = ∫dθ [r=2,r=0] ∫(3r-r²cosθ) dr

∫ (3/2* 2²- 2³/3 cosθ) dθ =[θ=2π, θ=0] ∫ (6-8/3 cosθ) dθ = 2π*6 - 8/3 sin0 = 12π

thus

V= 12π

to verify it, the volume should not be bigger than the volume if the cross section was a square and thus the volume enclosed would be:

V = [(2-(-2)]² * (6-2) /2 + [(2-(-2)]²  * (2-1) = 4³/2 + 4²*2 = 64 > 12π

Final answer:

Kim's original speed was 70 km/h. This was determined by equating the distances driven by both Kim and Maria in terms of Kim's original speed, and the fact they traveled for the same amount of time.

Explanation:

Let's denote Kim's original speed as [tex]\(V_{o}\)[/tex] in km/h. Kim drove for 3 hours at this speed and then slowed down by 15 km/h, driving at [tex]\(V_{o} - 15\)[/tex] km/h for the next 3 hours. Maria, on the other hand, averaged a speed of [tex]\(V_{o} + 5\)[/tex] km/h for the entire 6-hour trip (from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm).

To find the distance, which is the same for both Maria and Kim, we can set up the following equations based on the fact that distance is the product of speed and time: Kim's distance traveled is [tex]3 \(V_{o}\) + 3\((V_{o} - 15)\)[/tex] and Maria's distance traveled is [tex]5\((V_{o} + 5)\)[/tex]. These two expressions should be equal, as they traveled the same route:

[tex]3 \(V_{o}\) + 3\((V_{o} - 15)\) = 5\((V_{o} + 5)\)[/tex]

Simplifying the equation:

[tex]3 \(V_{o}\) + 3 \(V_{o}\) - 45 = 5 \(V_{o}\) + 25[/tex]

[tex]6 \(V_{o}\) - 45 = 5 \(V_{o}\) + 25[/tex]

[tex]Subtracting 6 \(V_{o}\) from both sides:[/tex]

[tex]\(V_{o}\) = 25+45[/tex]

Adding 45 to both sides:

[tex]\(V_{o}\) = 70[/tex]

Kim’s original speed, therefore, is 70 km/h.

Answer: a) [tex]\dfrac{32}{243}[/tex] b) [tex]\dfrac{256}{6561}[/tex] c) [tex]\dfrac{128}{6561}[/tex] d) [tex]\dfrac{6305}{6561}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability that each person agrees independently to be interviewed = [tex]\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex]

(a) 5 names?

If it has 5 names, then the probability would be

[tex](\dfrac{2}{3})^5\\\\=\dfrac{32}{243}[/tex]

(b) What if it has 8 names?

If it has 8 names, then the probability would be

[tex](\dfrac{2}{3})^8=\dfrac{256}{6561}[/tex]

(c) If the list has 8 names what is the probability that the reviewer will contact exactly 7 people in completing her assignment?

[tex]^8C_7(\dfrac{2}{3})^7(\dfrac{1}{3})\\\\=\dfrac{128}{6561}[/tex]

(d) With 8 names, what is the probability that she will complete the assignment without contacting every name on the list?

[tex]1-P(X=8)\\\\=1-^8C_8(\dfrac{2}{3})^8\\\\=1-\dfrac{256}{6561}\\\\=\dfrac{6561-256}{6561}\\\\=\dfrac{6305}{6561}[/tex]

Hence, a) [tex]\dfrac{32}{243}[/tex] b) [tex]\dfrac{256}{6561}[/tex] c) [tex]\dfrac{128}{6561}[/tex] d) [tex]\dfrac{6305}{6561}[/tex]

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

5-(-8)=13

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

The number line is really helpful in this case. All you have to do is count the spaces between -8, where A is, and 5, where C is. There's 13 spaces between them, therefore the length of AC is 13.

Answer:

  (B)  9/20

Step-by-step explanation:

The fastest machine can do 1/4 of the job in 1 hour. The second-fastest machine can do 1/5 of the job in 1 hour. Together, these two machines can do ...

  (1/4) +(1/5) = (5+4)/(5·4) = 9/20

of the job in 1 hour.

9/20 of the job can be done in 1 hour by two of the machines.

Answer:

Remember, a number a is a zero of the polynomial p(x) if p(a)=0. And a has multiplicity n if the factor (x-a) appear n times in the factorization of p(x).

1. Since -2 is a zero with multiplicity 1, then (x+2) is a factor of the polynomial.

2. Since 1 is a zero with multiplicity 2, then (x-1) is a factor of the polynomial and appear 2 times.

3. Since 5 is a zero with multiplicity 3, then (x-5) is a factor of the polynomial and appear 3 times.

Then, the polynomial function with the zeros described above is

[tex]p(x)=(x+2)(x-1)^2(x-5)^3= x^6-15x^5+72x^4-78x^3-255x^2+525x-250[/tex]

Final answer:

The polynomial function with the given zeros -2, 1, and 5, with their respective multiplicities 1, 2, and 3, and leading coefficient 1 is [tex]f(x) = (x + 2)(x - 1)^2(x - 5)^3.[/tex]

Explanation:

To form a polynomial function f(x) with the given zeros and multiplicities, we use the fact that a zero x = a with multiplicity m corresponds to a factor (x - a)^m in the polynomial. Since the leading coefficient should be 1, we simply multiply these factors together. Based on this, the polynomial with zeros -2 (multiplicity 1), 1 (multiplicity 2), and 5 (multiplicity 3) is:

[tex]f(x) = (x + 2)(x - 1)^2(x - 5)^3[/tex]

This polynomial is of degree 6, as the sum of the multiplicities of the zeros (1+2+3) equals the degree.

Answer:

1,152

Step-by-step explanation:

The rectangular field have four sides, where the opposite sides of the field are equal

The length of the brick wall that gives the lowest total cost of the fence is 40 meters

Let the length of the rectangular field be x, and the width be y.

Where: y represents the side to be made of brick wall,

So, the perimeter of the field is calculated using:

[tex]\mathbf{P =2x + 2y}[/tex]

And the area is

[tex]\mathbf{A =xy}[/tex]

The area is given as 2400.

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{xy = 2400}[/tex]

Make x the subject in

[tex]\mathbf{x = \frac{2400}y}[/tex]

Rewrite the perimeter as:

[tex]\mathbf{P =2x + y + y}[/tex]

The brick wall is $10 per meter, while the wooden wall is $20 per 4 meters

So, the cost function becomes

[tex]\mathbf{C =\frac {20}4 \times (2x + y) + 10 \times y}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{C =5 \times (2x + y) + 10 \times y}[/tex]

Open brackets

[tex]\mathbf{C =10x + 5y + 10y}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{C =10x +15y}[/tex]

Substitute [tex]\mathbf{x = \frac{2400}y}[/tex] in the cost function

[tex]\mathbf{C =10 \times \frac{2400}{y} +15y}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{C = \frac{24000}{y} +15y}[/tex]

Differentiate

[tex]\mathbf{C' = -\frac{24000}{y^2} +15}[/tex]

Set to 0, to minimize

[tex]\mathbf{-\frac{24000}{y^2} +15 = 0}[/tex]

Rewrite as

[tex]\mathbf{\frac{24000}{y^2} =15}[/tex]

Divide through by 15

[tex]\mathbf{\frac{1600}{y^2} =1}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by y^2

[tex]\mathbf{y^2 =1600}[/tex]

Take square roots of both sides

[tex]\mathbf{y^2 =40}[/tex]

Hence, the length of the brick wall should be 40 meters
