The wildlife department has been feeding a special food to rainbow trout fingerlings in a pond. Based on a large number of observations, the distribution of trout weights is normally distributed with a mean of 402.7 grams and a standard deviation of 8.8 grams. What is the probability that the mean weight for a sample of 40 trout exceeds 405.5 grams?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 0.0222

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The distribution of trout weights is normally distributed with

Mean : [tex]\mu=402.7\text{ grams}[/tex]

Standard deviation : [tex]\sigma=8.8\text{ grams}[/tex]

Sample size : [tex]n=40[/tex]

The formula to calculate the z-score is given by :-

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

Let x be the weight of randomly selected trout.

Then for x = 405.5  , we have

[tex]z=\dfrac{405.5 -402.7}{\dfrac{8.8}{\sqrt{40}}}\approx2.01[/tex]

The p-value : [tex]P(405.5<x)=P(2.01<z)[/tex]

[tex]1-P(2.01)=1-0.9777844=0.0222156\approx0.0222[/tex]

Thus,the probability that the mean weight for a sample of 40 trout exceeds 405.5 grams= 0.0222.

Answer 2

The probability that the mean weight for a sample of 40 trout exceeds 405.5 grams is  0.0222.

The distribution of trout weights is normally distributed with

We have given that

Mean=402.7 grams

Standard deviation =8.8  grams  

Sample size (n)=40

We have to calculate

The probability that the mean weight for a sample of 40 trout exceeds 405.5 grams

What is the to calculate the z-score?

Te formula of Z score is given by,

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

n= the ample size

x=mean

sigma=standard deviation

So by using the formula we have,

Let x is  the weight of randomly selected trout.

Then for x = 405.5  

[tex]z=\frac{405.5-\402.7}{\frac{\8.8 }{\sqrt{40}}}\\\\\z=2.01[/tex]

we have

The p-value :(405.5<x)

(1-2.01)=1-0.97778

           =0.02221

           =0.0222

Therefore,the probability that the mean weight for a sample of 40 trout exceeds 405.5 grams= 0.0222.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x+15}{3}[/tex]

or

[tex]f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x}{3}+5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

That means we want to find the inverse function of f(x)=3x-15.

The inverse function is just the swapping of x and y really.  We tend to remake the y the subject afterwards.  

So we are given:

y=3x-15

First step: Swap x and y

x=3y-15

Now it's time to solve for y.

Second step: Add 15 on both sides:

x+15=3y

Third step: Divide both sides by 3:

(x+15)/3=y

The inverse function is:

[tex]f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x+15}{3}[/tex]

You can also split up the fraction like so:

[tex]f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x}{3}+\frac{15}{3}[/tex]

The last fraction there can be reduced:

A ball is thrown vertically upward. After t seconds, its height h (in feet) is given by the function h(t) = 52t - 16t^2 . What is the maximum height that the ball will reach?
Do not round your answe

Answers

Answer:

42.25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The height function is a parabola.  The maximum value of a negative parabola is at the vertex, which can be found with:

x = -b/2a

where a and b are the coefficients in y = ax² + bx + c.

Here, we have y = -16t² + 52t.  So a = -16 and b = 52.  The vertex is at:

t = -52 / (2×-16)

t = 13/8

Evaluating the function:

h(13/8) = -16(13/8)² + 52(13/8)

h(13/8) = -169/4 + 169/2

h(13/8) = 169/4

h(13/8) = 42.25

Answer:

42.25 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum height can be found by converting to vertex form:

h(t) = 52t - 16t^2

h(t) =   -16 (  t^2  - 3.25t)

h(t) = -16 [ (t - 1.625)^2 - 2.640625 ]

= -16(t - 1.625 ^2) + 42.25

Maximum height = 42.25 feet.

Another method of solving this is by using Calculus:

h(t) = 52t - 16t^2

Finding the derivative:

h'(t) = 52 - 32t

This = zero for  a maximum/minimum value.

52 - 32t = 0

t = 1.625 seconds at maximum height.

It is a maximum because  the  path is a parabola  which opens downwards. we know this because of the  negative coefficient of x^2.

Substituting in the original formula:h(t) = 52(1.625)- 16(1.625)^2

= 42.25 feet.

if 1.04 = 2 to the power of 1/j, how do I calcate j ? i know the answer should be 17.7

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Follow these steps.  First let's look at the problem:

[tex]1.04=2^{\frac{1}{j}}[/tex]

Multiply each side by j/1:

[tex]1.04^{\frac{j}{1}} =2^{\frac{1}{j} *\frac{j}{1}}[/tex]

which simplifies to

[tex]1.04^j=2[/tex]

Now take the natural log of both sides:

[tex]ln(1.04)^j=ln(2)[/tex]

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

(j) ln(1.04) = ln(2) and then divide both sides by ln(1.04)

Do the division on your calculator to get that j = 17.7

Since 2007, a particular fund returned 13.3% compounded monthly. How much would a $4000 investment in this fund have been worth after 2 years? (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)

Answers

Answer:

$5,211.30

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate compound interest with the formula [tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]

Where A =  Amount after maturity

           P = Principal amount ( $4,000)

           r = Rate of interest 13.3% in decimal ( 0.133)

           n = number of compounding period, monthly ( 12 )

            t = Time in years ( 2 )

Now we put the values in the formula

[tex]A=4,000(1+\frac{0.133}{12})^{(12\times 2)}[/tex]

[tex]A=4,000(1+0.0110833)^{(24)}[/tex]

[tex]A=4,000\times 1.0110833^{24}[/tex]

[tex]A=4,000\times 1.3028262297[/tex]

A =  $5,211.30

After 2 years investment would be $5,211.30.

Which statement best explains whether Y equals 4 x+ 8 is a linear function or nonlinear function?

Answers

Answer:

C) It is a linear function because the graph contains the points (0, 8), (1, 12), (2, 16), which are on a straight line.  

Explanation:

The missing options for this question are:

A) It is a linear function because the graph contains the points (8, 0), (12, 1), (16, 2), which are on a straight line.  

B) It is a nonlinear function because the graph contains the points (8, 0), (12, 1), (16, 2), which are not on a straight line.

C) It is a linear function because the graph contains the points (0, 8), (1, 12), (2, 16), which are on a straight line.  

D) It is a nonlinear function because the graph contains the points (0, 8), (1, 12), (2, 16), which are not on a straight line.

The given equation is:

y = 4x + 8

Replacing x by 0, we get y = 8. This means point (0, 8) lies on the graph of the function.

Replacing x by 1, we get y = 12. This means point (1, 12) lies on the graph of the function.

Replacing x by 2, we get y = 16. This means point (2, 16) lies on the graph of the function.

If we plot these three points on a graph we can draw a straight line through these. Hence, based on this we can conclude that:

C) It is a linear function because the graph contains the points (0, 8), (1, 12), (2, 16), which are on a straight line.  

The line passing through these 3 points would actually be the given equation y = 4x + 8 as one and only one line can pass through 3 distinct points.


our friend purchases a $185,000 house. He is able to make a 15% down payment. The bank will give him a 30-year loan with a 3.5% APR.

How much money will he borrow for his mortgage?

$ (round to the nearest dollar)

What would his monthly payment be?

$ (round to the nearest cent)

How much interest will your friend pay over 30 years of his loan?

$ (round to the nearest cent)

Answers

Answer:

Given,

The value of the house = $ 185,000,

Percentage of down payment = 15%,

(i) So, the borrowed amount = 185,000 - 15% of 185,000

[tex]=185000-\frac{15\times 185000}{100}[/tex]

[tex]=185000-\frac{2775000}{100}[/tex]

[tex]=185000-27750[/tex]

[tex]=\$157250[/tex]

(ii) Since, the monthly payment formula of a loan is,

[tex]P=\frac{PV\times r}{1-(1+r)^{-n}}[/tex]

Where,

PV = present value of the loan ( or borrowed amount )

r = rate per month,

n = number of months,

Here, PV = $ 157250,

APR = 3.5% = 0.035 ⇒ r = [tex]\frac{0.035}{12}[/tex] ( 1 year = 12 months )

Time = 30 years, ⇒ n = 360 months,

Hence, the monthly payment would be,

[tex]P=\frac{157250\times \frac{0.035}{12}}{1-(1+\frac{0.035}{12})^{-360}}[/tex]

[tex]=706.122771579[/tex]    ( by graphing calculator ),

[tex]\approx \$ 706.12[/tex]

(iii) Interest = Total amount paid - borrowed amount

= 706.122771579 × 360 - 157250

= 96954.1977684

≈ $ 96954. 20

Final answer:

The friend will borrow $157,250 for the mortgage, with a monthly payment of $704.30. They will pay $101,548 in interest over 30 years.

Explanation:

To calculate the amount of money borrowed for the mortgage, we need to subtract the down payment from the total cost of the house. The down payment is 15% of the house cost, which is $185,000 x 0.15 = $27,750. So, the borrowed amount is $185,000 - $27,750 = $157,250.

To calculate the monthly payment, we can use the formula for a fixed-rate mortgage: M = P [ i(1 + i)^n ] / [ (1 + i)^n - 1 ]. Here, P is the borrowed amount ($157,250), i is the monthly interest rate (3.5% / 12 = 0.002916), and n is the total number of monthly payments (30 x 12 = 360). Plugging in these values, we get M = $157,250 [ 0.002916(1 + 0.002916)^360 ] / [ (1 + 0.002916)^360 - 1 ]. Using a calculator, the monthly payment comes out to be approximately $704.30.

To calculate the total interest paid over 30 years, we can multiply the monthly payment by the total number of payments and subtract the borrowed amount. The total interest paid = ($704.30 x 360) - $157,250. Using a calculator, the total interest paid comes out to be approximately $101,548. So, your friend will pay approximately $157,250 for the mortgage, with a monthly payment of approximately $704.30, and will pay approximately $101,548 in interest over 30 years.

If you pick three pieces in a​ row, what is the probability that they are all​ brown? the third one is the first one that is​ red? none are​ yellow? at least one is​ green?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the question we are given the percentages of each of the types of candies in the bag except for brown. Since the sum of all the percentages equals 75% and brown is the remaining percent then we can calculate that brown is (100-75 = 25%) 25% of the bag. Now we can show the probabilities of getting a certain type of candy by placing the percentages over the total percentage (100%).

Brown: [tex]\frac{25}{100}[/tex]Yellow or Blue: [tex]\frac{20}{100} +\frac{20}{100} = \frac{40}{100}[/tex]  ....add the numeratorsNot Green:  [tex]\frac{80}{100}[/tex].... since the sum of all the rest is 80%Stiped:  [tex]\frac{25}{100}[/tex] .... there are 0 striped candies.

Assuming the ratios/percentages of the candies stay the same having an infinite amount of candy will not affect the probabilities. That being said in order to calculate consecutive probability of getting 3 of a certain type in a row we have to multiply the probabilities together. This is calculated by multiplying the numerators with numerators and denominators with denominators.

3 Browns: [tex]\frac{25*25*25}{100*100*100} = \frac{15,625}{1,000,000} = \frac{1.5625}{100}[/tex]

the 1st and 3rd are red while the middle is any. We multiply 15% * (total of all minus red which is 85%) * 15% like so.

[tex]\frac{15*85*15}{100*100*100} = \frac{19,125}{1,000,000} = \frac{1.9125}{100}[/tex]

None are Yellow: multiply the percent of all minus yellow three times.

[tex]\frac{80*80*80}{100*100*100} = \frac{512,000}{1,000,000} = \frac{51.2}{100}[/tex]

At least 1 green: multiply the percent of green by 100% twice, since the other two can by any

[tex]\frac{20*100*100}{100*100*100} = \frac{200,000}{1,000,000} = \frac{20}{100}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

1st year: $ 622,500

2nd year: $415,000

3rd year: $207,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write the beginning book value of the asset

$830,000

Step 2: Determine the asset's estimated useful life

8 years

Step 3: Determine the asset's salvage value

$75,000

Step 4: Subtract the salvage value from the beginning value to get the total depreciation amount for the asset's total life.

830,000 - 75,000 = $755,000

Step 5: Calculate the annual depreciation rate

Depreciation rate = 100%/8 years = 12.5%

Step 6: Multiply the beginning value by twice the annual depreciation rate to find the depreciation expense

Depreciation expense = 830,000 x 25% = $207,500

Step 7: Subtract the depreciation expense from the beginning value to find the ending period value

Ending period value for 1st year: Beginning value - depreciation expense

830,000 - 207,500 = $ 622,500

Ending period value for 2nd year: 622,500 - 207,500 = $ 415,000

Ending period value for 3rd year: 415,000 - 207,500 = $ 207,500

For the final days before the election, the campaign manager has a total of $37,000 to spend on TV and radio campaign advertisements. Each TV ad costs $3000 and is seen by 10,000 voters, while each radio ad costs $500 and is heard by 2000 voters. Ignoring repeated exposures to the same voter, how many TV and radio ads will contact 130,000voters using the allocated funds?

x = TV ads
y = radio ads

Answers

Answer:

9 TV ads and 20 radio ads

Step-by-step explanation:

He has $37,000 to spend. He has to sum that amount of money between the TV and radio ads. Each TV ad costs $3000 while each radio ad costs $500, so the equation that represents that is 37000 = 3000x  + 500y  

The same happens with the amount of voters he needs to reach, the equation is 130000 = 10000x + 2000y

The system that represents this is

[tex]\left \{ {{3000x+500y=37000} \atop {10000x+2000y=130000}} \right.[/tex]

And the augmented matrix is

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{cc|c}3000&500&37000\\10000&2000&130000\end{array}\right][/tex]

First we divide the first row by 3000 and the second by 10000:

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{cc|c}1&1/6&37/3\\1&1/5&13\end{array}\right][/tex]

Then we multiply the second row by (-1) and we add the first row:

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{cc|c}1&1/6&37/3\\0&-1/30&-2/3\end{array}\right][/tex]

Now we multiply the second row by -30:

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{cc|c}1&1/6&37/3\\0&1&20\end{array}\right][/tex]

Finally, to the first row we add the second one multiply by (-1/6):

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{cc|c}1&0&9\\0&1&20\end{array}\right][/tex]

So, x = 9 and y = 20

That means 9 TV and 20 radio ads will contact 130,000 voters using the allocated funds

So the state unemployment = (0.056 × 2,080) + (0.056 × 6,110) + (0.056 × 7,000)

= 116.48 + 342.16 + 392 = $850.64

Federal unemployment = (0.006 × 2,080) + (0.006 × 6,110) + (0.006 × 7,000)

= 12.48 + 36.66 + 42 = $91.14

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for y.

−x2+x+0.75y+5xy=x2

Step 1: Add x^2 to both sides.

−x2+5xy+x+0.75y+x2=x2+x2

5xy+x+0.75y=2x2

Step 2: Add -x to both sides.

5xy+x+0.75y+−x=2x2+−x

5xy+0.75y=2x2−x

Step 3: Factor out variable y.

y(5x+0.75)=2x2−x

Step 4: Divide both sides by 5x+0.75.

y(5x+0.75)

5x+0.75

=

2x2−x

5x+0.75

y=

2x2−x

5x+0.75

Answer:

y=

2x2−x

5x+0.75

Final answer:

The Newton-Raphson method is a numerical technique used to find roots of nonlinear equations. Through iterations, the method identifies a value that satisfies the equations provided. Doing this for four iterations, we find that x=0.239294 and y=1.39412.

Explanation:

The Newton-Raphson method uses iterations to find the solution of nonlinear equations. Given the equations y = -x^2+x+0.75 and y+5xy=x^2 and the initial guesses x=y=1.2, we'll use the Newton-Raphson method to find the roots.

We can represent these equations as f(x,y) = -x^2+x+0.75 - y and g(x,y) = x^2 - y - 5xy = 0. The Newton-Raphson method works by using the Jacobian matrix, comprised of the partial derivatives of the equations with respect to x and y, to estimate new values for x and y with each iteration. Starting with our initial values of x and y, we then repeatedly apply the formula to calculate new values of x and y until we've reached the desired number of iterations.

Using this method, you end up with the following values: x=0.239294 and y=1.39412 for iteration 4. Remember, this method uses an iterative approach, and different starting values might yield slightly different results.

17. Prove the following statement: Let n e Z. If n is odd, then n2 is odd. Proof 6 pts. 2 VÎ±Î¶Ï there fore, n and n Please See tue classnotes

Answers

Answer with explanation:

It is given that , n is Odd integer.

If , n is odd, then it can be Written as with the help of Euclid division lemma

 → n= 2 p +1, as 2 p is even , and adding 1 to it converts it into Odd.

As Euclid lemma states that for any three integers, a ,b and c ,when a is divided by b, gives quotient c and remainder r , then it can be written as:

 a= b c+r, →→0≤r<b

Now, n² will be of the form

(2 p +1)²=(2 p)²+2 × 2 p×1+ (1)²

             =4 p²+4 p +1

⇒Multiplying any positive or negative Integer by 4, gives Even integer and sum  or Difference of two even integer is always even.

So, 4 p²+4 p, will be an even term.But Adding , 1 to it converts it into Odd Integer.

Hence, if n is an Odd number then , n² will be also odd.

Answers

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Let A= {a, b,c,d} and B= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

Define f:A→B

where  f = {(a, 1), (b, 3), (c, 5), (d, 2)}

a. What is the co-domain of f  

The co-domain or target set of a function is the set into which all of the output of the function is constrained to fall.

Here, all the values are constrained to fall on the set B

Hence, co-domain={1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

b. What is the range of f?

The set of all output values of a function is called range.

Here,  on putting the values of set A we get the output values as:1,2,3 and 5

Hence, Range={1,2,3,5}

c. Is f 1-1 function Explain.

A function for which every element of the range of the function corresponds to exactly one element of the domain.

Yes, f is 1-1

(Since, every element of range i.e. 1,2,3 and 5 corresponds to only one element of set A)

d. Can there exist a bijection between A and B? Explain.

No, there cannot exist bijection from A to B

because if a bijection exist between two sets then there cardinalities are same but A and B have different cardinalities

A has cardinality 4 and B has cardinality 6

In a certain country, the average age is 31 years old and the standard deviation is 4 years. If we select a simple random sample of 100 people from this country, what is the probability that the average age of our sample is at least 32?

Answers

Answer: 0.0062

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Mean : [tex]\mu=\ 31[/tex]

Standard deviation :[tex]\sigma= 4[/tex]

Sample size : [tex]n=100[/tex]

Assume that age of people in the country is normally distributed.

The formula to calculate the z-score :-

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

For x = 32

[tex]z=\dfrac{32-31}{\dfrac{4}{\sqrt{100}}}=5[/tex]

The p-value = [tex]P(x\geq32)=P(z\geq5)[/tex]

[tex]=1-P(z<5)=1- 0.9937903\approx0.0062[/tex]

Hence, the the probability that the average age of our sample is at least =0.0062

Final answer:

The probability that the average age of the sample is at least 32 is approximately 0.62%.

Explanation:

To find the probability that the average age of our sample is at least 32, we can use the normal distribution. The average age of the population is 31 years old and the standard deviation is 4 years. Since we have a large sample size (100), we can use the central limit theorem to assume that the sample mean will follow a normal distribution.

To calculate the probability, we need to find the z-score for the value 32. The z-score formula is z = (x - μ) / (σ / √n), where x is the desired value, μ is the population mean, σ is the population standard deviation, and n is the sample size. Plugging in the values, we get z = (32 - 31) / (4 / √100) = 1 / (4 / 10) = 2.5.

Using a z-table or a calculator, we can find that the probability of a z-score of 2.5 or more is approximately 0.0062, or 0.62%.

An aircraft factory manufactures airplane engines. The unit cost C (the cost in dollars to make each airplane engine) depends on the number of engines made. If x engines are made, then the unit cost is given by the function C(x) = 1.1x^2 - 638x + 111,541 . What is the minimum unit cost?

Do not round your answer.

Answers

Final answer:

The minimum unit cost is approximately $42,330.09.

Explanation:

To find the minimum unit cost, we need to find the vertex of the quadratic function C(x) = 1.1x^2 - 638x + 111,541. The x-coordinate of the vertex can be found using the formula x = -b / 2a, where a = 1.1 and b = -638. Plugging in these values, we get:



x = -(-638) / (2 * 1.1) = 290.9090909



So the minimum unit cost occurs when approximately 291 engines are made. To find the minimum unit cost, we substitute this value back into the C(x) function:



C(291) = 1.1(291)^2 - 638(291) + 111,541 = 42330.090909



Therefore, the minimum unit cost is approximately $42,330.09.

Why?

We are given the following expression:

[tex]-6(n-8)=4(12-5n)+14n[/tex]

So, we need to perform the expressed operations using the distributive property, and then, add/subtract the like terms.

Now, solving we have:

[tex]-6(n-8)=4(12-5n)+14n[/tex]

[tex]-6*n+(-6*-8)=4*12+(4*-5n)+14n[/tex]

[tex]-6n+48=48-20n+14n[/tex]

[tex]-6n+48=48-6n[/tex]

[tex]0=0[/tex]

Hence, we can se that 0 is equal to 0, it means that the solution is all the values that belong to the real numbers,  and any value of "n" that we can substitute, will lead us to a satisfied equation.
