Answer:

The correct answer is 161700.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of members of the senate of 107th congress is 100 in which there are 53 republicans, 42 democrats and 5 independents.

A new committee is to be formed from these 100 congressmen to study the benefits of arts in education.

Number of senators required to head the new committee is 3.

Therefore total number of ways 3 members are selected in the population of 100 congressmen is given by [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}100\\3\end{array}\right][/tex] = 161700.

Thus there are 161700 ways one can select 3 senators to head a committee.

Step-by-step explanation:

It can be convenient to use the quadratic regression capability of a graphing calculator or spreadsheet. That's what we did in the attachment.

__

Fill in the given points in the equation to find three linear equations in a, b, c.

  3 = a(2^2) +b(2) +c

  7 = a(-2)^2 +b(-2) +c

  -2 = a(1^2) +b(1) +c

Subtracting the last equation from the first two gives ...

  (3) -(-2) = (4a +2b +c) -(a +b +c)   ⇒   5 = 3a +b

  (7) -(-2) = (4a -2b +c) -(a +b +c)   ⇒   9 = 3a -3b . . . . . [eq5]

Subtracting the second of these equations from the first gives ...

  (5) -(9) = (3a +b) -(3a -3b)   ⇒   -4 = 4b

  b = -1

Dividing [eq5] by 3 gives ...

  3 = a - b

  3 = a -(-1)

  2 = a

Using the original 3rd equation, we have ...

  -2 = a +b +c

  -2 = 2 +(-1) + c

  -3 = c . . . . . . . . subtract 1

The desired quadratic is ...

  y = 2x^2 -x -3

That is,

V=AH

Where,

A=Area of a triangle

H=Height of the prism

Given,

A=1/2× base×height=16 square meters

Height=9 meters

Therefore,

Volume of triangular prism=16 square meters×9 meters

=144 cubic meters

Answer: D. 144 cubic meters

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangular prism consists of 2 triangular faces(base) and 3 rectangular faces.

The formula for determining the volume of a triangular prism is expressed as

Volume = area of the triangular base × height of the prism

Area of triangular base = 1/2 base × height

From the information given,

Height of prism = 9 meters

Area of triangular base = 16 square meters

Volume of the triangular prism = 16 × 9 = 144 cubic meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that all hip-hop songs are played consecutively is 0.18%.

To calculate the probability that all hip-hop songs are played consecutively, to consider the total number of possible song arrangements and the number of arrangements where all hip-hop songs are consecutive.

The total number of song arrangements calculated using the concept of permutations. Since there are a total of 11 songs on the playlist, the number of possible arrangements is 11!.

Now, let's calculate the number of arrangements where all hip-hop songs are played consecutively treat the 6 hip-hop songs as a single unit or block. This means  6! ways to arrange the hip-hop songs within that block.

Since we have 5 rock songs remaining, we can arrange them in 5! ways.

Therefore, the total number of arrangements where all hip-hop songs are played consecutively is 6! ×5!.

To calculate the probability, we divide the number of favorable outcomes (where all hip-hop songs are played consecutively) by the total number of possible outcomes:

Probability = (Number of favorable outcomes) / (Total number of possible outcomes)

Probability = (6! × 5!) / 11!

Calculating the numerical value:

Probability = (720 × 120) / 39,916,800

Probability ≈ 0.00180

C(2010) = $1312 using linear approximation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The full complete question is attached to this solution.

The full table is given as

Year | 1970 | 1980 | 1990 | 2000

Cash |$180 |$262 |$564 | $938

we are told to use linear approximation to obtain C(2010)

Linear approximation, Mathematically, results in

C(2010) = C(2000) + C'(t) [t]

where t = years since 2010 = (Year - 2000)

Linear approximation gives C'(t) as the rate of change of C with time

C'(t) = (ΔC/Δt)

We will be using the latest year for this approximation.

ΔC = C(2000) - C(1990) = 938 - 564 = $374

Δt = 2000 - 1990 = 10

C'(t) = (374/10) = $37.4 per year.

C(2010) = C(2000) + C'(t) [t]

t = 2010 - 2000 = 10

C(2000) = $938

C'(t) = $37.4 per year

C(2010) = 938 + (37.4)(10) = $1312

Final answer:

The answer to whether the segments with lengths of 1, 8, and 8 can form a triangle is True.

Explanation:

Can Segments Form a Triangle?

To determine if the segments with lengths of 1 and 8 can form a triangle, we need to apply the Triangle Inequality Theorem. This theorem states that the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the length of the third side. In this case, we have two sides that are each 8 units long, and one side that is 1 unit long.

Let's add the lengths of the two shorter segments: 1 + 8 = 9.

This sum is greater than the length of the other segment, which is 8. Now, we will check the sum of the other two possible pairs:

Since all combinations of the sums of two sides are greater than the third side, these segments can indeed form a triangle.

Thus, the answer to whether the segments with lengths of 1, 8, and 8 can form a triangle is True.

P(0.0453 - 0.05 < p < 0.0453 + 0.05)

On standardising,

= P(\frac{0.0453-0.05-0.0453}{0.0498} <Z<\frac{0.0453+0.05-0.0453}{0.0498})

Answer = 0.6848

Using the Central Limit Theorem, it is found that the mean of the sampling distribution of the sample proportions is 0.453.

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

In this problem:

By the Central Limit Theorem, the mean is [tex]\mu = p = 0.453[/tex].

Given:

The length of a rectangle is 5 less than its width.

The area of the rectangle is 84 square feet.

We need to determine the quadratic equation in standard form that represents the area of the rectangle.

Dimensions of the rectangle:

Let l denote the length of the rectangle.

Let w denote the width of the rectangle.

Since, it is given that the length is 5 less than its width, it can be written as,

[tex]l=5-w[/tex] and [tex]w=w[/tex]

Area of the rectangle:

The area of the rectangle can be determined using the formula,

[tex]A=length \times width[/tex]

Substituting A = 84, [tex]l=5-w[/tex] and [tex]w=w[/tex], we get

[tex]84=(5-w)\times w[/tex]

[tex]84=5w-w^2[/tex]

Adding both sides of the equation by w², we have;

[tex]w^2+84=5w[/tex]

Subtracting by 5w on both sides, we get;

[tex]w^2-5w+84=0[/tex]

Thus, the quadratic equation in standard form for the area of the rectangle is [tex]w^2-5w+84=0[/tex]

The level of production (x) that will maximize the profit is approximately 36 units.

The profit is the revenue (R(x)) minus the cost (C(x)). So, we have:

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

Given Functions:

Cost Function: C(x) = 45,000 + 100x + x³ dollars

Revenue Function: R(x) = 4000x dollars

Substitute the given functions into the profit function:

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

P(x) = 4000x - (45,000 + 100x + x³)

P(x) = 4000x - 45,000 - 100x - x³

Simplify the profit function:

P(x) = -x³ + 3900x - 45,000

Find the critical points by differentiating the profit function and setting it to zero:

P'(x) = -3x² + 3900

Set P'(x) = 0 and solve for x:

-3x² + 3900 = 0

-3x² = -3900

x²= 1300

x = ±√1300

x = ±36.06

Evaluate the second derivative (P''(x)) to determine if these critical points are maxima or minima:

P''(x) = -6x

Substitute the critical points (x = ±36.06) into P''(x):

P''(x)= -6(36.06)

= -216.36 (negative value)

Since the second derivative is negative at x ≈ ±36.06, it confirms that x = 36.06 is a maximum point.

So, the level of production (x) that will maximize the profit is approximately 36 units.

To determine the level of production that maximizes profit, we calculate the profit function, differentiate it to find critical points, and then identify the maximum. The critical points are found by setting the first derivative of the profit function to zero and solving for x.

To determine the level of production x that will maximize the profit for the manufacturer, we first need to calculate the profit function. Profit, P(x), is the difference between total revenue, R(x), and total cost, C(x).

The profit function is defined as P(x) = R(x) - C(x). Using the given cost function C(x) = 45,000 + 100x + x^3 dollars and the revenue function R(x) = 4000x dollars, we get:

P(x) = 4000x - (45,000 + 100x + x^3)

This simplifies to:

P(x) = -x^3 + 3900x - 45,000

To find the production level that maximizes profit, we need to determine the critical points by differentiating P(x) and setting the derivative equal to zero. The derivative of P(x) is:

P'(x) = -3x^2 + 3900.

Setting P'(x) = 0 gives:

-3x^2 + 3900 = 0

Solving for x yields two critical points, but only one will maximize profit. We can find this maxima by testing which value of x gives the higher P(x) or by using the second derivative test. After finding the correct value of x, we round it to the nearest whole number as the final answer.

Answer:

a. The percentage of adult men that will fit through the door without bending is 0.

b.  The percentage of adult women that will fit through the door without bending is 0.

c. No, it is not adequate. There must be another technical reasons to not use a larger door.

d. The doorway height that would allow 60% of men to fit without bending is 70.1 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. To fit throught the door, the height has to be under 51.6. To calculate this proportion, we have to calculate the z-score for X=51.6 for the distribution of men's height N(μ=69.5, σ=2.4).

We can calculate the z-score as:

[tex]z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{51.6-69.5}{2.4}=\dfrac{-17.9}{2.4}=-7.4583[/tex]

[tex]P(X<51.6)=P(z<-7.4583)=0[/tex]

The percentage of adult men that will fit through the door without bending is 0.

b. To fit throught the door, the height has to be under 51.6. To calculate this proportion, we have to calculate the z-score for X=51.6 for the distribution of women's height N(μ=63.8, σ=2.6).

We can calculate the z-score as:

[tex]z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{51.6-63.8}{2.6}=\dfrac{-12.2}{2.6}=-4.6923[/tex]

[tex]P(X<51.6)=P(z<-4.6923)=0[/tex]

The percentage of adult women that will fit through the door without bending is 0.

c. No, it is not adequate. There must be another technical reasons to not use a larger door.

d. We can calculate this finding a z-value z1 for which P(z<z1)=0.60.

Looking in a standard normal distribution table, the value for z1 is z1=0.25335.

Then, transforming to our adult men's height distribution, we have:

[tex]X=\mu+z\sigma=69.5+0.25335*2.4=69.5+0.6=70.1[/tex]

The doorway height that would allow 60% of men to fit without bending is 70.1 inches.

The sidewalk moves at 0.5 ft/sec

Josie's speed walking on a non-moving ground is 3.5ft/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the speed of the side walk and y represent her walking speed

It takes Jason's 8-year-old daughter Josie 44 sec to travel 176 ft walking with the sidewalk

Distance = speed × time

176 = (x+y)×44

44x+44y = 176

x+y = 4 .......1

It takes her 7 sec to walk 21 ft against the moving sidewalk in the opposite direction).

21 = (y-x)7

7y - 7x = 21

y - x = 3 ......2

Add equation 1 to 2

2y = 7

y = 3.5 ft/sec

From equation 1

x + y = 4

x = 4 - 3.5 = 0.5

x = 0.5 ft/sec

The sidewalk moves at 0.5 ft/sec

Josie's speed walking on a non-moving ground is 3.5ft/sec

Answer: Josie's speed walking on a non-moving ground is 3.5 ft/sec

The side walk moves at 0.5 Ft/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent Josie's speed walking on a non-moving ground.

Let y represent the speed of the sidewalk.

It takes Jason's 8-year-old daughter Josie 44 sec to travel 176 ft walking with the sidewalk. It means that the total speed at which she moved is

(x + y) ft/sec

Distance = speed × time

Therefore,

176 = 44(x + y)

Dividing both sides by 44, it becomes

4 = x + y- - - - - - - - - - - - - -1

It takes her 7 sec to walk 21 ft against the moving sidewalk in the opposite direction). It means that the total speed at which she moved is (x - y) ft/sec

Therefore,

21 = 7(x - y)

Dividing both sides by 7, it becomes

3 = x - y- - - - - - - - - - - - - -2

Adding equation 1 and 2, it becomes

7 = 2x

x = 7/2 = 3.5 ft/sec

Substituting x = 3.5 into equation 2, it becomes

3 = 3.5 - y

y = 3.5 - 3 = 0.5 ft/sec

[tex] E(X) = \sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_i) [/tex]

And replacing we got:

[tex] E(X) = 1*0.05 +2* 0.3 +3* 0.4 +4*0.25 = 2.85[/tex]

So we are going to expect about 2,85 automobiles for this case.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we define the random variable X as "number of automobiles lined up at a Lakeside Olds dealer at opening time (7:30 a.m.)" and we know the distribution for X is given by:

X         1         2       3         4

P(X)  0.05  0.30  0.40   0.25

The expected value of a random variable X is the n-th moment about zero of a probability density function f(x) if X is continuous, or the weighted average for a discrete probability distribution, if X is discrete

For this case we can calculate the epected value with this formula:

[tex] E(X) = \sum_{i=1}^n X_i P(X_i) [/tex]

And replacing we got:

[tex] E(X) = 1*0.05 +2* 0.3 +3* 0.4 +4*0.25 = 2.85[/tex]

So we are going to expect about 2,85 automobiles for this case.

The expected number of automobiles at Lakeside Olds at opening time can be calculated as a weighted average, resulting in an expectation of approximately 3 cars.

The expected number of automobiles lined up at Lakeside Olds at opening time would be calculated by multiplying each number of automobiles by its respective probability and then adding up those products. This is essentially calculating a weighted average.

So for the given data:

Add up those results: 0.05 + 0.60 + 1.20 + 1.00 = 2.85. Thus, on a typical day, Lakeside Olds should expect approximately 3 automobiles to be lined up at opening time.

[tex]H_{o}: u\geq 26\\H_{a}: u<26[/tex]

Since, we do not know the value of Population standard deviation, and we have the value of sample standard deviation, we will use One-Sample t-test for the population mean.

The formula to calculate the test-statistic would be:

[tex]t=\frac{x-u}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

Substituting the values in this formula gives us:

[tex]t=\frac{24.444-26}{\frac{2.45}{\sqrt{18}}}\\t=-2.69[/tex]

This means, the test statistic would be -2.69

Since, the sample size is 18, the degrees of freedom would be:

Degrees of freedom = df = n - 1 = 17

To find the p-value we need to check the p-value against test statistic of 2.69, with 17 degrees of freedom and One-tailed test. This value comes out to be:

p-value = 0.0078

Therefore, the correct answer would be:

t = -2.69 , p = 0.0078

The value of the expression x/z is 3/5.

Simplification of an expression is the process of writing an expression in the most efficient and compact form without affecting the value of the original expression.

For the given situation,

The expressions are

7x=3y ------ (1)

5y=7z ------ (2)

From equation 1,

[tex]7x=3y[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x=\frac{3y}{7}[/tex]

From equation 2,

[tex]5y=7z[/tex]

⇒ [tex]z=\frac{5y}{7}[/tex]

Now, [tex]\frac{x}{z}= \frac{\frac{3y}{7} }{\frac{5y}{7} }[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\frac{x}{z}=(\frac{3y}{7})(\frac{7}{5y} )[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\frac{x}{z}=(\frac{3}{5})[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the value of the expression x/z is 3/5.

Answer:

20 knives

Step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of fork to knives is [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] and their are 16 forks, so we put the ratio of fork and knives equal to number of fork and knives so its:

[tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{16}{x}[/tex]  We cross multiply

80 = 4x Divide both  side by 4

x = 20

we can check too

16/20 if we simplify, its give us 4/5

There are 20 knives in Isabella's kitchen.

The ratio of forks to knives in Isabella’s kitchen drawer is 4 to 5.

Given that there are 16 forks in the drawer, we can set up a proportion to find the number of knives:

4/5 = 16/X

Cross multiply to get: 4X = 80

Divide by 4 to find X = 20

Therefore, there are 20 knives in Isabella's kitchen drawer.
