For a given distribution the average is 15.5 and the standard deviation is 1.5.
If a sample is taken at random, which value is most likely?

20.2
10.1
16.3
12.9

Answers

Answer 1
16.3 as it is closest to the average value.
Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is 16.3

Step-by-step explanation:

For a random distribution with an specific mean and standard deviation, the most probable values are the ones that lie between the  ( means + or - standard deviation)

so in this case, the confidence range is:

Low = 15.5-1.5= 14

High = 15.5+1.5= 17

Values that lie between this range are more probable. So in this case 16.3, which is the only value in this range, has higher chance of occuring.

WXYZ is an isosceles trapezoid with legs WX and YZ and a base XY. If the length of WX is 6x+5, the length of XY is 10x+4 and the length of YZ is 8x-3, find the value of x.

Answers

Answer: x = 4

Explanation:

An isosceles trapezoid has two opposite sides (the bases) parallel, and the two other sides (the legs) are of equal length.

So, since the two legs are of equal length, you only need to use the information of the two legs:

Leg WX: 6x + 5

Leg: YZ: 8x - 3

Leg WX = Leg YZ => 6x + 5 = 8x - 3

6x + 5 = 8x - 3

=> 8x - 6x = 5 + 3

=> 2x = 8

=> x = 8 / 2

=> x = 4

Daniel Potter bought a new car for $20,000.00. Two years later, he wanted to sell it. He was offered $14,650.00 for it. If he sold it for that amount, what was his depreciation rate?

Answers

First compute the different of the price like this:
 $20,000.00-$14,650.00=5350$
Then divide like this:
[tex] \frac{5350.00}{20,000}=75 [/tex]
Now compute the percentage like this:
[tex]0,26\times100=26.75\%[/tex]
In order to compute the rate, divide by the number of years we get:
[tex]\dfrac{26.75}{2}=13.37\%[/tex]
The rate of depreciation is [tex]13.37\%[/tex]. 


Answer: 13.375% per year

Explanation:

1) Depreciation is the loss of value: $ 20,000.00 - $ 14,650.00 = $ 5,350

2) The percent of depreciation is amount of the depreciation divided by the value of the car when purchased, times 100.

That is (5,350 / $ 20,000) * 100 = 26.75 %

2) The rate is percent of depreciation per year:

depreciation rate = % of depreciation / number of years = 26.75%  / 2 = 13.375% per year.

Suppose that in a certain triangle, the degree measures of the exterior angles are in the ratio 2:3:4. If the largest interior angle measures y degrees, what is the value of y?

Answers

first you should calculate total of the ratios:
2+3+4=9
then divide 360 by 9 (because the total degrees of the exterior angles in polygon is 360)
[tex]360 \div 9 = 40[/tex]
at the end find the amount of the exterior angles:
[tex]2 \times 40 = 80 \\ 3 \times 40 = 120 \\ 4 \times 40 = 160[/tex]
the shortest exterior angle is 80 degrees
so it has the largest interior angle:
180-80=100
the answer is 100

Final answer:

To find the largest interior angle y in a triangle with exterior angles in the ratio 2:3:4, we use the fact that the sum of a triangle's exterior angles is 360° to find the value of each exterior angle, then deduce y as the supplement of the largest exterior angle, resulting in y being 20°.

Explanation:

To find the value of the largest interior angle y in a triangle where the exterior angles are in the ratio 2:3:4, we start by understanding that the sum of the exterior angles of any triangle is 360°.

This means that the exterior angles in this triangle are 2x, 3x, and 4x degrees, respectively, where x is a common multiple.

Given that the sum of these angles must be 360°, we can write the equation 2x + 3x + 4x = 360°, simplifying to 9x = 360° and solving for x gives us x = 40°.

The largest exterior angle is 4x, which equals 160°. Since the exterior angle is supplementary to the interior angle it shares a vertex with, the largest interior angle y is therefore 180° - 160° = 20°.

Thus, the value of y is 20°.

We can divide the large polygon into 3 smaller known polygons 
1 square and 2 rectangles

The dimensions of the square will be:
width: 3 units
length: 3 units 

The dimensions of the 1st rectangle will be:
width: 4 units
length: 7 + 13 = 20 units

The dimensions of the 2nd rectangle will be:
width: 5 units
length: 13 units

The area formula of square is (side)²
A = (6)² = 36 units²

The area formula of a rectangle is (length x width)
A (1st) = 4 x 20
           = 80 units² 
A(2nd) = 5 x 13
            = 65 units²

Now, we add all the areas to get the final area
Area total = 36 + 80 + 65
                 = 181 unit²

Your final answer will be option D

What is the x-intercepts of the graph of y = 12x-5x-2

Answers

y = 12x - 5x - 2

first simplify the equation by subtracting like terms (in this case):

12x - 5x = 7x

y = 7x - 2

Since you are finding the x, you must isolate the x. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.(Note: because there is a equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other)

y = 7x - 2

y (+2) = 7x - 2 (+2)
y + 2 = 7x
(y + 2)/7 = 7x/7

x = (y + 2)/7


x = (y + 2)/7 is your answer

hope this helps
x intercept = when the graph cuts the x-axis = when y = 0


y = 12x^2 -5x -2

when y = 0
12x^2 -5x -2 = 0
(3x - 2) (4x + 1) = 0
x = 2/3 or x = 1/4

So the x-intercept are (2/3, 0) and (1/4, 0)

Answer:

Option B is correct.

The coordinate of A' is (-2 , -1)

Explanation:

The coordinates of ABCD are A = (-1,2) , B(1,1) , C =(1,-1) and D(-2,-2).

Rotation means moving the shape  around a fixed point clockwise or anticlockwise, and by a certain number of degrees.

Rule for 90° counterclockwise rotation about the origin: [tex](x,y) \rightarrow (-y,x)[/tex]

or we can say that switch x and y in the coordinates and make y value opposite.

Then, the coordinate of A' :

[tex]A(-1,2) \rightarrow A'(-2 ,-1) [/tex]

Therefore, the coordinate of A' in the quadrilateral A'B'C'D' is, (-2 ,-1)


frank purchased a boat for $7,525. he made a down payment of $475. he applied for a six year installment loan with an interest rate of 8.4% in the amount of $7,050. what is the total cost of the boat after six years?

Answers

Answer:

  $9474.40

Step-by-step explanation:

A spreadsheet can be used to calculate the amortization of the loan. The one attached uses rounding to the penny for all dollar amounts. The result is that the payment amount is rounded down, and the final payment is about 12¢ short. The total repaid on the loan will be slightly more than the product of payment amount ($124.99) and number of payments (72).

The total cost of the boat is the sum of down payment, loan amount, and interest amount. That sum is $9474.40.

Legs of a right triangle:

The side which shares the common/neighboring border to the right angle in a triangle is called legs.

Pythagoras theorem:

According to the given question, we have

length of one leg of the right triangle is 13cm.

hypotenuse of the right triangle is 21 cm .

Let x be the length of the other leg.

Now, according to the Pythagoras theorem

⇒ 441 = [tex]x^{2} +169[/tex]

⇒[tex]441-169 =x^{2}[/tex]
