Answers

Answer 1

Answer: [tex](11.44,\ 17.4)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

[tex]\overline{x}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

Given : Sample size : [tex]n=36[/tex]

Sample mean : [tex]\ovreline{x}=14.42[/tex]

Standard deviation : [tex]\sigma=6.95[/tex]

Significance level : [tex]\alpha=1-0.99=0.01[/tex]

Critical value : [tex]z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.005}=2.576[/tex]

Now, the 99% confidence interval for the mean percent body fat in all men aged 20 to 29 will be :-

[tex]14.42\pm (2.576)\dfrac{6.95}{\sqrt{36}}\\\\\approx14.42\pm2.98\\\\=(14.42-2.98,\ 14.42+2.98)=(11.44,\ 17.4)[/tex]

Yana is using an indirect method to prove that segment DE is not parallel to segment BC in the triangle ABC shown below:

A triangle ABC is shown. D is a point on side AB and E is a point on side AC. Points D and E are joined using a straight line. The length of AD is equal to 4, the length of DB is equal to 5, the length of AE is equal to 6 and the length of EC is equal to 7.

She starts with the assumption that segment DE is parallel to segment BC.

  4 : 9 ≠ 6 : 13

Answer:

4:9 ≠ 6:13

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

In triangle ABC,

D ∈ AB, E ∈ AC,

Also, AD = 4 unit, DB = 5 unit, AE = 6 unit, EC = 7 units,

Suppose,

DE ║ BC,

[tex]\because \frac{AD}{AB}=\frac{AD}{AD + DB}=\frac{4}{9}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{AE}{AC}=\frac{AE}{AE+EC}=\frac{6}{6+7}=\frac{6}{13}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \frac{AD}{AB}\neq \frac{AE}{AC}[/tex]

Because,

[tex]\frac{4}{9}\neq \frac{6}{13}[/tex]

Which is a contradiction. ( if a line joining two points of two sides of a triangle is parallel to third sides then the resultant triangles have proportional corresponding sides )

Hence, DE is not parallel to segment BC.

In the circle , mBC =38 and mAD =146
What is m

Answers

Answer:

m<AED = 92°

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

measure of arc BC = 38° therefore m<BDC = 38/2 = 19°

measure of arc AD = 146° therefore m<ACD = 146/2 = 73°

To find the measure of <CED

Consider the ΔCDE

m<D = m<BDC = 19° and

m<C = m<ACD = 73°

By using angle sum property  m<CED can be written as,

m<CED = 180 -( m<D + m<C )

 = 180 - (19 + 73)

 = 180 - 92

= 88°

To find the measure of <AED

<AED  and <CED are linear pair

m<AED + m<CED = 180

m<AED = 180 - m<CED

 = 180 - 88

 = 92°

Therefore m<AED = 92°

In a hospital ward, there are 15 nurses and 3 doctors. 9 of the nurses and 1 of the doctors are female. If a person is randomly selected from this group, what is the probability that the person is male or a doctor?
nine over eighteen
two over fifteen
eight over fifteen
eight over eighteen

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{\text{Nine over eighteen}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we're trying to find the probability of picking a person that is a male or a doctor.

We know that there are:

15 nurses3 doctors9 of the nurses are female1 doctor is a female

With the information above, we can find the probability.

Lets first find how many male nurses there are. To find this, we would get our total amount of nurses (15) and subtract it by 9, due to the fact that 9 of the nurses are female.

[tex]15-9=6[/tex]

This means that there are 6 male nurses.

6 would be added to our probability.

We're not done yet, we also need to add the chance of getting a doctor in our probability.

Since there's 3 doctors, we would just add 3 to our probability.

[tex]6+3=9[/tex]

Now, we need to find the total. When we add all together, we would get 18. This means that 18 would go on our denominator and 9 will go on our numerator.

This means that the chance of getting a male or a doctor would be [tex]\frac{9}{18}[/tex], or nine over eighteen.

A set of points is a function if you have all your x's are different.  That is, all the x's must be distinct. There can be no value of x that appears more than once.

If you look at choice A, this is not a function because the first two points share the same x, which is -3.

Choice B is not a function because the first and last point share the same x, which is 6.

Choice C is not a function because the last two points share the same x, which is 3.

Choice D is not a function because the first and last choice share the same x, which is -3.

None of your choices show a function.

A marketing research company needs to estimate which of two medical plans its employees prefer. A random sample of n employees produced the following 98% confidence interval for the proportion of employees who prefer plan A: (0.241, 0.561). Identify the point estimate for estimating the true proportion of employees who prefer that plan

Answers

Answer:

the point estimate of the true proportion of employees is 0.401

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

plan A = ( 0.241 , 0.561 )

to find out

the point estimate for estimating the true proportion of employees who prefer that plan

solution

we know that given data 98% confidence interval for the proportion of employees who prefer plan A: (0.241, 0.561) so point estimate for estimating the true proportion o employees who prefer that plan is p^E

and we can say here  

lower limit = [tex]p^{-E}[/tex] = 0.241    ..............1

upper limit = [tex]p^{+E}[/tex]  = 0.561    ...............2

now add these two equations 1 and 2

=  [tex]p^{-E}[/tex] + [tex]p^{+E}[/tex]

=  [tex]p^{-E}[/tex] + [tex]p^{+E}[/tex]  = 0.241 + 0.561

2 p = 0.802

2p = 0.806

p = 0.401

So the point estimate of the true proportion of employees is 0.401

Final answer:

The point estimate in this scenario is 0.401, which is the estimated proportion of employees who prefer Plan A. This is calculated by averaging the lower and upper limits of the given 98% confidence interval.

Explanation:

The question is asking for the point estimate which is a single value used as an estimate of the population parameter. In a confidence interval, the point estimate is the mid-point or center of the interval. Here, the confidence interval given for the proportion of employees preferring Plan A is (0.241, 0.561). To find the point estimate, you average the two end values.

The formula for finding the point estimate is: (Lower limit + Upper limit) / 2.

Applying the values from your question: (0.241 + 0.561) / 2 = 0.401.

So, the point estimate, or the estimated true proportion of employees who prefer Plan A, is 0.401.

She made two attempts. a) Find the probability that she will make it both the times. b) Find the probability that she will make it exactly once. c) Given than she made it exactly once, what is the probability that it was the 2nd one?

Answers

Answer:

Part a) 0.63

Part b) 0.22

Part c) 0.68

Step-by-step explanation:

The individual probabilities are calculated as

1) Probability of scoring in first attempt = 70%

2) Probability of missing in first attempt = 30%

3)  Probability of scoring in second attempt provided she scores in first attempt = 90%

4)  Probability  of missing in second attempt provided she scores in first attempt = 10%

5) Probability of scoring in 2nd attempt provided she misses in ist attempt = 50%

6)  Probability of missing in 2nd attempt provided she misses in ist attempt = 50%

Part a)

probability of making the throw exactly  both the times = [tex]P(ist)\times P (2nd)[/tex]

Applying values we get

probability of making the throw exactly  both the times= [tex]0.7\times 0.9=0.63[/tex]

Part b)

She will make it exactly once if

1) She scores in first attempt and misses second

2) She misses in first attempt and scores in  the second attempt

Probability of case 1 = [tex]0.7\times 0.1=0.07[/tex]

Probability of case 2 =[tex] 0.3 \times 0.5 =0.15[/tex]

Thus probability She will make it exactly once equals [tex] 0.15+0.07=0.22[/tex]

Part c)

It is a case of conditional probability

Now by Bayes theorem we have

[tex]P(B|A)=\frac{P(B\cap A)}{P(A)}[/tex]

P(B|A) is the probability of scoring in second attempt provided that she has scored only once

P(B) is the probability of scoring exactly once

Given that she makes it exactly once [tex]\therefore P(A)=0.22[/tex]

[tex]P(B\cap A)=0.15[/tex]

using these values we have

[tex]P(B|A)=\frac{0.15}{0.22}\\\\P(B|A)=0.68[/tex]

The ratio of the lengths of EF and BC is 2:1. The correct answer is (EF, BC), where the length of EF is twice the length of BC.

The ratio of the lengths of two segments is given as 2:1. We can set up a proportion and find that the length of one segment is twice the length of the other.

In this question, the ratio of the lengths of two segments is given as 2:1. We are asked to find the lengths of the two segments, which are represented by two choices: (EF, BC) and (AD, IH). To solve this problem, we can set up a proportion. Let's assume that EF and BC represent the lengths of the segments, and we can write the proportion as:

[tex]\frac {EF}{BC} =\frac {2}{1}[/tex]

To solve for the lengths, we can cross multiply:

[tex]EF \times 1 = BC \times 2[/tex]

[tex]EF = 2 \times BC[/tex]

So, the length of EF is twice the length of BC. Therefore, the correct answer is (EF, BC), where the length of EF is twice the length of BC.

Final answer:

The student's question deals with the concept of ratios and similar triangles in High School level Mathematics. Without additional context to the specific figures and points mentioned, a precise answer cannot be given. Typically, in similar triangles, corresponding side lengths are proportional, allowing calculation of unknown lengths when a ratio is provided.

Explanation:

The question refers to finding a ratio of lengths related to geometrical figures. Since ratios and proportions frequently deal with lengths and geometry, and the provided examples reference triangles, circles, and other geometric shapes, this question is most closely related to the subject of Mathematics. The use of similar triangles to find unknown lengths is a typical high school-level geometry problem.

Based on the information given in the question, it seems we are required to use the property that states the ratios of corresponding sides of similar triangles are equal. To answer the student's question specifically, we'd need more context to the figures in question, such as circle C with center F and point F', or the configuration of the triangles abc and a'b'c'.

For instance, if we have two similar triangles, with corresponding side lengths in a ratio of 2:1, this means that if one triangle has a side length of 'x', the similar triangle's corresponding side length would be '2x'. To answer the student's query correctly, however, additional information on which particular sides of the named points are being inquired about is necessary.

Answers

Answer:

n/m = 1.5 is direct variation

v = 1/3 bh is joint variation

y = -7 is constant

vw = -18 is inverse variation

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain the types of variation

- Direct variation is a relationship between two variables that can be

 expressed by an equation in which one variable is equal to a constant

 times the other

# Ex: the equation of a direct variation y = kx , where k is a constant

- Inverse variation is a relationship between two variables in which their

 product is a constant.

- When one variable increases the other decreases in proportion so

 that their product is unchanged

# Ex: the equation of a inverse variation y = k/x , where k is a constant

- Joint variation is a variation where a quantity varies directly as the

 product of two or more other quantities

# Ex: If z varies jointly with respect to x and y, the equation will be of

  the form z = kxy , where k is a constant

- The constant function is a function whose output value (y) is the

  same for every input value (x)

* Lets solve the problem

∵ n/m = 1.5 ⇒ multiply both sides by m

∴ n = 1.5 m

∵ The equation in the shape of y = kx

n/m = 1.5 is direct variation

∵ v = 1/3 bh

∵ 1/3 is a constant

∴ v is varies directly with b and h

v = 1/3 bh is joint variation

∵ y = -7

∴ All output will be -7 for any input values

y = -7 is constant

∵ vw = -18

∵ -18 is constant

∵ The product of the two variables is constant

vw = -18 is inverse variation

Chris will rent a car for the weekend. He can choose one of two plans. The first plan has an initial fee of $65 and costs an additional $0.80 per mile driven. The second plan has no initial fee but costs $0.90per mile driven. How many miles would Chris need to drive for the two plans to cost the same?

Answers

Chris would need to drive 650 miles for the two plans to cost the same.

Further Explanation:

Let d = distance traveled in miles

Plan 1 will have an initial fee of $65 and a cost of $0.80 per mile driven. Therefore, the total cost to drive a distance of d will be:

total cost = $65 + ($ 0.80 × d)

Plan 2 will have no initial fee but has a cost of $0.90 per mile drive. The total cost, then, to drive a distance of d will be:

total cost = $0.90 × d

If the two costs are the same, then:

$65 + ($ 0.80 × d) = $0.90 × d

The distance driven, d, can then be solved algebraically.

Combining like terms:

$65 = $0.90d - $0.80d

$65 = $0.10d

Solving for d:

d = $65/$0.10

d = 650 miles

To check the answer, solve for the total cost of Plan 1 and Plan 2 and see if they are equal.

Plan 1:

total cost = $65 + ($0.80 x 650)

total cost = $65 + $520

total cost = $585

Plan 2:

total cost = $0.90 x 650

total cost = $585

Since both plans cost the same, then the distance 650 mi is correct.

Write the explicit formula for the data.


Write a recursive rule for the height of the ball on each successive bounce.

If this ball is dropped from a height of 175 cm, how many times does it bounce before it has a bounce height of less than 8 cm? Use the same rebound percentage as in the previous problem.

What is the height of the fourth bounce of this ball if it is dropped from a height of 250 cm? Use the same rebound percentage as in the previous problem.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a geometric sequence so the standard formula for a recursive geometric sequence is

[tex]a_{n}=a_{0}*r^{n-1}[/tex]

We know the heights and the number of bounces needed to achieve that height, but in order to write the recursive formula we need r.

The value of r is found by dividing each value of a bounce by the one before it.  In other words, bounce 1 divided by the starting height gives a value of r=240/300 so r = .8

Bounce 2 divided by bounce 1: 192/240 = .8

So r = .8

Therefore, the formula is

[tex]a_{n}=a_{0}(.8)^{n-1)[/tex] where

aₙ is the height of the ball after the nth bounce,

a₀ is the starting height of the ball,

.8 is the rebound percentage, and

n-1 is the number of bounces minus 1

The first problem basically asks us to find n when the starting height is 175 and the bounce height is less than 8.  I used 7.  Here is the formula filled in with our info:

[tex]7=175(.8)^{n-1}[/tex]

and we need to solve for n.  That requires that we take the natural log of both sides.  Here are the steps:

First, divide both sides by 175 to get

[tex].04=(.8)^{n-1}[/tex]

Next, take the natural log of both sides:

[tex]ln(.04)=ln((.8)^{n-1})[/tex]

The power rule of logs says that we can bring the exponent down in front of the log:

[tex]ln(.04)=n-1(ln(.8))[/tex]

Finding the natural logs of those decimals gives us:

[tex]-3.218876=-.223144(n-1)[/tex]

Divide both sides by -.223144 to get your n-1 value:

n - 1 = 14.4251067

That means that, since the ball is not bouncing 14.425 times, it bounces 14 times to achieve a height less than 8.  Let's see how much less than 8 by checking our answer.  To do this, we will solve for aₙ when x = 14:

[tex]a_{n}=175(.8)^{14}[/tex]

This gives us a height at bounce 14 of 7.697 cm, just under 8!

Now for the next part, we want to use a starting value of 250 and .8 as the rebound height.  We want to find a₄, the height of the 4th bounce.

[tex]a_{4}=250(.8)^{4-1}[/tex]

which simplifies to

[tex]a_{4}=250(.8)^3[/tex]

Do the math on that to find the height of the 4th bounce from a starting height of 250 cm is 128 cm

Answer:

First case

   Recursive formula: [tex]h_n = 0.8 \times h_{n-1}[/tex]

   Explicit formula: [tex]h_n = 300 \times 0.8^{n-1}[/tex]

Second case: 15 bounces are needed

Third case: 128 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call h to he height of the ball

From the table, the rate is computed as follows:

r = 240/300 = 192/240 = 153.6/192 =  122.88/153.6 = 98.3/122.88 = 0.8

Which means this is a geometric sequence (all quotients are equal).

Recursive formula:

[tex]h_0 = 300[/tex]

[tex]h_n = r \times h_{n-1}[/tex]

[tex]h_n = 0.8 \times h_{n-1}[/tex]

where n refers to the number of bounces

Explicit formula:

[tex]h_n = h_0 \times r^{n-1}[/tex]

[tex]h_n = 300 \times 0.8^{n-1}[/tex]

If this ball is dropped from a height of 175 cm, then

[tex]h_n = 175 \times 0.8^{n-1}[/tex]

If the height must be 8 cm or less:

[tex]8 = 175 \times 0.8^{n-1}[/tex]

[tex]8/175 = 0.8^{n-1}[/tex]

[tex]ln(8/175) = (n-1) ln(0.8)[/tex]

[tex]n = 1 + \frac{ln(8/175)}{ln(0.8)}[/tex]

[tex]n = 14.83[/tex]

which means that 15 bounces are needed.

If this ball is dropped from a height of 250 cm, then

[tex]h_n = 250 \times 0.8^{n-1}[/tex]

For the fourth bounce the height will be:

[tex]h_4 = 250 \times 0.8^{4-1}[/tex]

[tex]h_4 = 128[/tex]

For what x-value(s) does cos(x) = 0?

Answers

[tex]\cos x=0\\\\x=\dfrac{\pi}{2}+k\pi, k\in\mathbb{Z}[/tex]

The x-values where cos(x) = 0 occur at x = π/2 + nπ, where n is any integer.

To determine the x-values where cos(x) equals 0, we refer to the unit circle, where the cosine of an angle represents the x-coordinate of the corresponding point on the circle.

The cosine function equals 0 at angles where the x-coordinate is 0, which occurs at specific points on the unit circle:

π/2 radians (90°)3π/2 radians (270°)

Additionally, cosine is a periodic function with a period of 2π, meaning these values will repeat every 2π. Thus, the general solution for x where cos(x) = 0 is:

x = π/2 + nπ, where n is any integer.

For example: when n=0, x = π/2; when n=1, x = 3π/2; and so on.

Hence, the x-values where cos(x) = 0 are expressed as x = π/2 + nπ for any integer n.
