The bacterial strain Acinetobacter has been tested for its adhesion properties, which is believed to follow a normal distribution. A sample of five measurements gave readings of 2.69, 5.76, 2.67, 1.62 and 4.12 dyne-cm. Assume that the standard deviation is known to be 0.7 dyne-cm_2 and that the scientists are interested in high adhesion (at least 2.66 dyne-cm^2)(a) Should the alternative hypothesis be one-sided or two-sided? Write down the null and alternative hypotheses.(b) Based on your answer to part (a), test the hypothesis to see if the mean adhesion is at least 2.66 dyne-cm_2 (Use the p-value approach) What can be concluded?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) Alternative hypothesis should be one sided. Because Null and Alternative hypotheses are:

[tex]H_{0}[/tex]: μ=2.66 dyne-cm.

[tex]H_{a}[/tex]: μ<2.66 dyne-cm.

b) the hypothesis that mean adhesion is at least 2.66 dyne-cm is true

Step-by-step explanation:

Let μ be the mean adhesion in dyne-cm.

a)

Null and alternative hypotheses are:

[tex]H_{0}[/tex]: μ=2.66 dyne-cm.

[tex]H_{a}[/tex]: μ<2.66 dyne-cm.

b)

First we need to calculate test statistic and then the p-value of it.

test statistic of sample mean can be calculated as follows:

t=[tex]\frac{X-M}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{N} } }[/tex] where

X  is the sample mean M is the mean adhesion assumed under null hypothesis (2.66 dyne-cm) s is the standard deviation known  (0.7 dyne-cm_2)N is the sample size(5)

Sample mean is the average of 2.69, 5.76, 2.67, 1.62 and 4.12 dyne-cm, that is [tex]\frac{2.69+5.76+2.67+1.62+4.12}{5}[/tex] ≈ 3.37

using the numbers we get

t=[tex]\frac{3.37-2.66}{\frac{0.7}{\sqrt{5} } }[/tex] ≈ 2.27

The p-value is ≈ 0.043. Taking significance level as 0.05, we can conlude that sample proportion is significantly higher than 2.66 dyne-cm.

Thus, according to the sample the hypothesis that mean adhesion is at least 2.66  dyne-cm is true

Step-by-step explanation:

A man is flying in a hot-air balloon in a straight line at a constant rate of 6 feet per second, while keeping it at a constant altitude. As he approaches the parking lot of a market, he notices that the angle of depression from his balloon to a friend's car in the parking lot is 37°. A minute and a half later, after flying directly over this friend's car, he looks back to see his friend getting into the car and observes the angle of depression to be 38°. At that time, what is the distance between him and his friend?

Answers

Answer: 336.4447 feet

Step-by-step explanation: from the picture I attached to this answer, you will see how I represented the question in a diagram

Point A being the point of his friends car, point B being the point of the hot air balloon when he noticed the angle of depression to his friends car to be 37 degrees, point C being the point of the hot air balloon after passing his friends car and noticing the angle of depression to be 38 degrees

From my diagram, I labeled y as the distance between B and C and we are told he traveled when a speed of 6 feet per second with a constant altitude, and after 1 and a half minutes he reached point C, which is 90 seconds

To get value of y we multiply the speed and the time, 90 multiplied by 6 which will give 540 feet

From my diagram, I calculated the angle inside the triangle to be 105, we all know the sum of angles in a straight line to be 180, and also knowing alternate angles, we have 37 and 38 degree as the angle outside the triangle at that point, so adding both angle 37+38=75 and subtracting that from 180 we get 105

So the get the distance between him and his friends when the angle of depression is 38 degree, which is the distance between point A and C which I labeled x, we use the sin rule

Sin rule states that the ratio between the length of a side of a triangle and the sin of the angle opposite it is constant for all sides of the triangle,

The steps are also solved in the picture I sent

So we have the ratio of x and sin37 is also equal to the ratio of 540 and sin105

So x divided by sin37 equals 540 divided by sin105

Sin37 equals 0.6018, sin105 equals 0.9659

So making x the subject of formula

We get x will be equal to (540*0.6018)/0.9659 which will give you 336.4447 feet

Final answer:

Using trigonometry and applying the concept of tangent to the angles of depression, we can construct two right triangles to calculate the horizontal distances and then use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the distance from the balloon to the friend's car.

Explanation:

The question involves a man in a hot-air balloon tracking his distance from a car in a parking lot using the angles of depression before and after flying over the car. To solve this question, we will apply trigonometry specifically, the concept of tangent which relates the angle of depression to the sides of a right triangle formed by the observer's altitude and the horizontal distance.

Firstly, let's find the horizontal distance the man travels in a minute and a half at 6 feet per second:

Distance = speed × time = 6 feet/second × 90 seconds = 540 feet

Now, we form two right triangles: one before he flies over the car and one after. Both have the same altitude (since he maintains a constant altitude).

For the first triangle, using the 37° angle of depression, we can denote:

For the second triangle, using the 38° angle of depression, we can denote:

Solving these two equations we find the horizontal distance (x) and then can find the direct line distance using Pythagoras' theorem.

To find the distance, we will use the tangent of 38° (the angle of depression after passing the car) since that relates the perpendicular distance from the balloon to the car (which we are interested in) to the horizontal distance. Let's denote the perpendicular distance as 'h' (altitude of the balloon).

Tan(38°) = h / (x - 540 feet)

After some algebraic manipulation and applying trigonometry, we can solve for 'h' and find the direct line distance from the balloon to the car.

What is DC ?

Enter the answer in the box.

Answers

Answer:

  DC = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Point D is the circumcenter of triangle ABC, so it is equidistant from A, B, and C.

We are given the measures of DE and AE, so we can figure AD using the Pythagorean theorem:

  AD² = AE² + DE² . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . E bisects AB, so AE=AB/2=18

  AD = √(18² +24²) = √900 = 30

  DC = AD

Answers

Answer:

     A = 6.13e^(0.00884769t)

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential growth model can be written two ways. Comparing them, we can find the value of k.

  A = 6.13×(7.00/6.13)^(t/(2015-2000)) = 6.13×e^(kt)

Dividing by 6.13 and taking natural logs, we get ...

  t/15×ln(7.00/6.13) = kt

  k = ln(7.00/6.13)/15 . . . . . divide by t

  k ≈ 0.00884769

Then the exponential growth function can be written as ...

  A = 6.13e^(0.00884769t)

The top and bottom margins of a poster are each 6 cm and the side margins are each 4 cm. If the area of printed material on the poster is fixed at 384 cm , find the dimensions of the poster with the smallest area.

Answers

Answer:

  24 cm wide by 36 cm high

Step-by-step explanation:

The poster with the smallest area will have an aspect ratio that makes the margin dimensions the same percentage of overall dimension in each direction.

Since the ratio of margin widths is 6:4 = 3:2, the poster and printed area will have an aspect ratio of 3:2. That is, the width is ...

  width of printed area = √(2/3·384 cm²) = 16 cm

Then the width of the poster is ...

  width = left margin + printed width + right margin = 4cm + 16 cm + 4 cm

  width = 24 cm

The height is 3/2 times that, or 36 cm.

The smallest poster with the required dimensions is 24 cm wide by 36 cm tall.

_____

If you need to see the calculus problem, consider the printed area width to be x. Then the printed height is 384/x and the overall dimensions are ...

  (x + 8) by (384/x + 12)

We want to minimize the area, which is the product of these dimensions:

  a = (x +8)(384/x +12) = 384 +12x +3072/x +96

  a = 12x + 3072/x +480

This is a minimum where its derivative is zero.

  a' = 12 -3072/x^2 = 0

  a' = 1 -256/x^2 = 0 . . . . . . divide by 12; true when x^2 = 256

This has solutions x=±16, of which the only useful solution is x=16.

A conical tank is 8 meters high. The radius of the top is 2 meters. At what rate is the water running out if the depth is 3 meters and is decreasing at the rate of 0.4 meters per minute

Answers

Answer:

DV/dt    = 0,2355 m³/min

Step-by-step explanation:

Conical tank volume    V  =  1/3 *π*r²*h

r radius at the top    2 meters

when depth of water is 3 meters the radius of the level of water is:

let     α  angle of vertex of cone then

tan∠α   = 2/8        tan∠α   = 1/4         tan∠α  = 0,25

At the same time when water is at 3 meters depth  radius is

tan∠α  = r/3             0,25*3= r         r  = 0,75 m

Now

DV/dt    =  (1/3)*π*r²*Dh/dt            

Dh/dt  =  0,4 meters/min

By substitution

DV/dt    = 0,2355 m³/min

A group of science students spotted 53 birds there were six times as many sparrows as Blue Jays and there were four Falcons how many of each bird were there

Answers

Here’s how to solve it and the answer

Final answer:

We found there were 7 Blue Jays, 42 sparrows, and 4 Falcons.

Explanation:

The question involves solving a simple algebraic problem to determine the number of sparrows and Blue Jays when given the total number of birds and the number of Falcons.

To solve this, let's define the number of Blue Jays as x.

The number of sparrows is six times the number of Blue Jays, so we can express that as 6x.

We are told there are four Falcons.

The total number of birds spotted is 53.

We can set up the equation as:

x + 6x + 4 = 53

Solving this equation:

Combine like terms: 7x + 4 = 53Subtract 4 from both sides: 7x = 49Divide both sides by 7: x = 7

Since x represents the number of Blue Jays, there are 7 Blue Jays.

To find the number of sparrows, multiply 7 by 6, which gives us 42 sparrows.

We were also told there are four Falcons.

So the group saw 42 sparrows, 7 Blue Jays, and 4 Falcons.

A textbook store sold a combined total of 257 math and psychology textbooks in a week. The number of math textbooks sold was 87 more than the number of psychology textbooks sold. How many textbooks of each type were sold?

  2p = 170 . . . . . .subtract 87; next divide by 2

  p = 85 . . . . . . . psychology books sold

  p+87 = 172 . . . math books sold

Final answer:

85 psychology textbooks and 172 math textbooks were sold.

Explanation:

Let's denote the number of psychology textbooks sold as x. According to the problem, the number of math textbooks sold, which is 87 more than the psych books, can be represented as x + 87. The total number of textbooks sold is expressed in the problem as 257, which is the sum of the psych books (x) and the math books (x + 87). So:

x (psych books) + x + 87 (math books) = 257

We can simplify this to 2x + 87 = 257. If we subtract 87 from both sides, we'll get 2x = 170. Dividing both sides by 2 results in x = 85. This tells us that 85 psychology books were sold.

Then to find the number of math books, we can use the original relationship given: math books = psychology books + 87, therefore, 85 + 87 = 172 math books.

Standing on the edge of a cliff 30 m tall, Bob notices a kayak on the lake. If the angle of depression to the kayak is 400, what is the distance, to the nearest meter, from the kayak to the base of the mountain?

Answers

Answer:

36 m

Explanation:

The vertical height of the cliff, 30 m tall, and the horizontal distance from the kayak to the base of the mountain form a right triangle.

The angle of depression is 40º.

By the alternate interior angles theorem, that depression angle is congruent to the elevation angle from the kayak to the spot where Bob is standing on.

The tangent trigonometric ratio relates the height (30 m) with the distance from the kayak to the base of the mountain:

tan(40º) = height of the cliff / distance from the kayak to the base of the mountain

tan(40º) = 30 m / x

x = 30m / tan(40º) ≈ 35.75 m ≈ 36 m

For every 1000 pairs sold, the manufacturer expect to replace 239 pairs for free.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mean (μ) = 2.2, Standard deviation(S.D) (σ) = 1.7 years and x = 1 (1 year)

Let's find the Z score.

Z = [tex]\frac{x - mean}{S.D}[/tex]

Now plug in the given values in the above formula, we get

Z = [tex]\frac{1 - 2.2}{1.7} = -0.71[/tex]

The z-score for 0.71 is 0.2611

Since it z is negative, so we subtract 0.2611 from 0.5000

0.5000 - 0.2611 = 0.2389

Percentage = 0.2389 × 100 = 23.89%

To find replaces for 1000 pairs, we need to multiply 23.89% by 1000

If A is the initial amount put into an account, P is the annual percentage rate of interest, which remains fixed, and the account compounds quarterly, which of the following is an expression, in terms of A and P, for the amount in the Account after 5 years?
A 4A(p100)5
B A(p100)20
C 4A(1+p100)5
D A(1+p25)20
E A(1+p400)20

Answers

Answer: The amount in the account is A = A(1 + P/400)^20

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial amount deposited into the account is A. This means that the principal is A, so

P = A

It was compounded quarterly. This means that it was compounded once in four months. So

n = 4

The rate at which the principal was compounded is P%. So

r = P/100

It was compounded for a total of 5 years. So

n = 5

The formula for compound interest is

A = P(1+r/n)^nt

A = total amount in the account at the end of n years.

Let A = B

B = A(1 + (P/100)/4)^4×5

A = A(1 + P/400)^20

Final answer:

The correct expression for the amount in an account after 5 years, where interest is compounded quarterly, is D. [tex]A(1 + \frac{P}{25})^{20}[/tex].

Explanation:

When calculating the future value of an investment with compound interest, it's important to consider the initial amount A, the annual interest rate P, the number of times the interest is compounded per year, and the total number of years the money is invested. In this question, where the account compounds quarterly for 5 years, the formula for compound interest applies, which is:

P(t) = [tex]A(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]

Here, r represents the annual nominal interest rate in decimal form [tex](\frac{P}{100})[/tex], n is the number of times interest is compounded per year, and t is the number of years the money is invested. Given that the account compounds quarterly, n equals 4. So after 5 years, the formula would be:

P(5) = [tex]A(1 + \frac{P}{400})^{(4 \times 5)}[/tex]

Based on the options provided in the question, the correct expression for the amount in the account after 5 years, in terms of A and P, when compounded quarterly is:

D. [tex]A(1 + \frac{P}{25})^{20}[/tex]

Suppose your local school district decides to randomly test high school students for attention deficit disorder (ADD). There are there high schools in the district, each with grades 9-12. The school board pools all of the students together and randomly samples 250 students. Is this a simple random sample?
a. Yes, because the students were chosen at random
b. Yes, because each student is equally likely to be chosen
c. Yes, because they could have chosen any 250 students from throughout the district
d. No, because we can't guarantee that there are students from each school in the sample
e. No, because we can't guarantee that there are students from each grade in the sample
f. Yes, because they could have chosen any 250 students from throughout the district

Answers

Answer:

Option C is correct. Option f is the same as option C

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, There are three high schools in the district, each with grades between nine to twelve. The school board decided to pool all of the students together and randomly samples 250 students in the whole district that has schools between the grade of nine to twelve.

In order to test for high school students in the district for Attention Deficit disorder(ADD), they could have chosen any 250 students from any school with grades betweem nine to twelve throughout the district.

Prehistoric cave paintings were discovered in a cave in France. The paint contained 10 %10% of the original​ carbon-14. Use the exponential decay model for​ carbon-14, Upper A equals Upper A 0 e Superscript negative 0.000121 t=A0e−0.000121t​, to estimate the age of the paintings.

Answers

Answer:

t=19188.2 y

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential decay equation is:

[tex] A=A_{0}e^{-0.00012t}[/tex]      (1)

But, A is 10% of A₀, it means that A=0.10A₀.

If we put it into equation (1), we will have:

[tex] 0.10A_{0}=A_{0}e^{-0.00012t}[/tex]      

[tex] 0.10=e^{-0.00012t}[/tex]         (2)

Now, we just need to solve (2) for t.

[tex] t=\frac{ln(0.10)}{-0.000121} = 19188.2 y [/tex]

The number of houses that can be served by a water pipe varies directly as the square of the diameter of the pipe. A water pipe that has a​ 10-centimeter diameter can supply 40 houses. a. How many houses can be served by a water pipe that has a 30​-centimeter ​diameter? b. What size of water pipe is needed for a new subdivision of 1440 ​houses?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

no of houses that can be served by water is directly Proportional to the square of diameter

[tex]N\propto d^2[/tex]

[tex]N=kd^2[/tex]

where k =constant

10 cm diameter can supply 40 houses

[tex]40=k(10)^2[/tex]-----------1

For d=30 cm Pipe

[tex]N_1=k(30)^2[/tex]-------------2

divide 1 & 2

[tex]\frac{N_1}{40}=(\frac{30}{10})^2[/tex]

[tex]N_1=40\times 9=360 [/tex]

(b)for N=1440 houses

[tex]1440=k(d_2)^2[/tex] ----------------3

[tex]\frac{1440}{40}=(\frac{d_2}{10})^2[/tex]

[tex]d_2=6\times 10[/tex]

[tex]d_2=60 cm[/tex]

Final answer:

A water pipe with a diameter of 30 cm can serve 360 houses. And to serve 1440 houses, a water pipe with a diameter of 60 cm is required.

Explanation:

The relationship between the number of houses that could be supplied by the water pipe and the diameter of the pipe can be described as a direct square relationship. This means if you square the diameter of the pipe, you'll get the number of houses that can be served. We know from the given info that a 10 cm diameter pipe can serve 40 houses. Therefore, the constant of variation (k) can be calculated as k=No. of houses/diameter². Hence, k=40/10²=0.4.

a.) A pipe with a 30 cm diameter can serve 0.4*(30)² = 360 houses.

b.) For a new subdivision of 1440 houses, we rearrange the formula to find the required diameter: Diameter= sqrt(No. of houses/k) = sqrt(1440/0.4) = 60 centimeters.

A bank wishes to estimate the mean credit card balance owed by its customers. The population standard deviation is estimated to be $300. If a 98 percent confidence interval is used and an interval of $78 is desired, how many customers should be sampled?A. 725B. 80C. 57D. 320

Answers

Answer: B. 80

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the formula to find the sample size is given by :-

[tex]n=(\dfrac{z^*\cdot\sigma}{E})^2[/tex]

, where [tex]\sigma[/tex] = population standard deviation.

E= margin of error

z*= Two -tailed critical z-value

Given : Confidence level = 98% =0.98

[tex]\alpha=1-0.98=0.02[/tex]

Population standard deviation : [tex]\sigma=300[/tex]

Also, from z-table for [tex]\alpha/2=0.01[/tex] (two tailed ), the critical will be = [tex]z^*=2.326[/tex]

Then, the required sample size must be :

[tex]n=(\dfrac{2.326\cdot300}{78})^2\\\\ n=(8.94615)^2\\\\ n=80.0336686391\approx80[/tex]  [To the nearest option]

Hence, the required sample size = 80

Hence, the correct option is option B. 80

Final answer:

To estimate the mean credit card balance owed by the bank's customers using a 98 percent confidence interval and a desired interval of $78, the sample size should be 725 customers.

Explanation:

To estimate the mean credit card balance owed by the bank's customers, we need to determine the sample size. We can use the formula for sample size calculation for a mean with a desired margin of error: n = (Z * σ / E)².

Here, Z is the Z-score for the desired confidence level, σ is the population standard deviation, and E is the desired margin of error. In this case, the Z-score for a 98 percent confidence level is approximately 2.33. Plugging in the values, we get: n = (2.33 * 300 / 78)² = 724.9.

Since we can't have a fractional sample size, we round up to the nearest whole number. Therefore, the bank should sample 725 customers.
