There are 1000 toothpicks in a regular-sized box. If a jumbo box is made by doubling all the dimensions of the regular-sized box, how many toothpicks will the jumbo box hold?
Hi, here is the solution.
The doubling each dimensions increases the volume by 8. That is (2 * 2* 2)
There 1000 toothpicks in a regular box.
The jumbo box hold 8 *1000 = 8000 toothpicks.
Thank you.

The price of three t-shirt styles are $24, $30 and $36. The probability of choosing a $24 t-shirt is 1/6. The probability of choosing a $30 t-shirt is 1/2. The probability of choosing a $36 t-shirt is 1/3. What is the expected value of a t-shirt?
$29
$30
$31
$32
The law of large numbers in probability, is a theorem that describes the result of performing the same experiment a large number of times because the average of the results obtained from a large number of trials is close enough to the expected value.
So, according to this definition and the situation given , the correct answer is option B - if 800 people are randomly surveyed about the TV shows they watch, about 400 of them will be women; because there are larger number of experiment.
Part B:
To get the expected value of a t-shirt we will multiply each of the 3 prices by the associated probability, and then add up these three products-
[tex](24\times\frac{1}{6})+(30\times\frac{1}{2})+(36\times\frac{1}{3})[/tex]
=4 + 15 + 12 = $31
Hence, option C is correct.
Answer:
1. If 800 people are randomly surveyed about the TV shows they watch, about 400 of them will be women.
2. $31

Solve the equation. Check for extraneous solutions.
9|9 – 8x| = 2x + 3
To solve an absolute value equation of the form |X| = k, where X is an expression with a variable and k is a non-negative number or an expression, you must solve the compound equation X = k or X = -k.
The first step is to divide both sides by 9 to get the absolute value of an expression equal to a non-negative number.
9|9 – 8x| = 2x + 3
Divide both sides by 9.
[tex] |9 - 8x| = \dfrac{2x + 3}{9} [/tex]
Now we eliminate the absolute value by rewriting this as a compound equation.
[tex] 9 - 8x = \dfrac{2x + 3}{9} ~~~or~~~ 9 - 8x = -\dfrac{2x + 3}{9} [/tex]
We must solve both equations.
Multiply both sides by 9.
[tex] 9(9 - 8x) = 2x + 3 ~~~or~~~ 9(9 - 8x) = -(2x + 3) [/tex]
[tex] 81 - 72x = 2x + 3 ~~~or~~~ 81 - 72x = -2x - 3 [/tex]
[tex] -74x = -78 ~~~or~~~ -70x = -84 [/tex]
[tex] x = \dfrac{-78}{-74} ~~~or~~~ x = \dfrac{-84}{-70} [/tex]
[tex] x = \dfrac{39}{37} ~~~or~~~ x = \dfrac{6}{5} [/tex]
Answer: x = 39/37 or x = 6/5
To check for extraneous solutions, we plug in each solution into the original equation and check if it works.
Check 39/37:
9|9 – 8(39/37)| = 2(39/37) + 3
|81 - 72(39/37)| = 78/37 + 3
|2997/37 - 2808/37| = 78/37 + 111/37
|189/37| = 189/37
189/37 = 189/37
The solution 39/37 is valid.
Check x = 6/5.
9|9 – 8x| = 2x + 3
9|9 – 8(6/5)| = 2(6/5) + 3
|81 - 72(6/5)| = 12/5 + 15/5
|405/5 - 432/5| = 27/5
|-27/5| = 27/5
27/5 = 27/5
The solution x = 6/5 is also valid.
There are no extraneous solutions.

Answer:
[tex]\text{The value of (f+g)(x) is }x^2-2x-13[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the two functions
[tex]f(x)=2x-5[/tex]
[tex]g(x)=x^2-4x-8[/tex]
we have to find the value of (f+g)(x)
As we know
[tex](f+g)(x)=f(x)+g(x)=(2x-5)+(x^2-4x-8)[/tex]
[tex]=2x-5+x^2-4x-8[/tex]
[tex]=x^2+2x-4x-5-8=x^2-2x-13[/tex]
[tex]\text{Hence, the value of (f+g)(x) is }x^2-2x-13[/tex]

differentiate f(x)=x^2sin(x)
Answer:
[tex]\displaystyle \large{f\prime(x) = 2x \sin (x) + x^2 \cos (x)}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given a function:
[tex]\displaystyle \large{f(x) = x^2 \sin (x)}[/tex]
Notice that there are two functions multiplying each other. Recall the product rules.
[tex]\displaystyle \large{y=h(x)g(x) \to y\prime = h\prime (x) g(x) + h(x)g\prime (x)}[/tex]
You can let x^2 = h(x), sin(x) = g(x) or sin(x) = h(x), x^2 = g(x) as your desire but I’ll let h(x) = x^2 and g(x) = sin(x).
Therefore, from a function:
[tex]\displaystyle \large{f(x) = x^2 \sin (x) \to f\prime (x) = (x^2)\prime \sin(x) + x^2 (\sin (x))\prime}[/tex]
Recall the power rules and differentiation of sine.
[tex]\displaystyle \large{y = ax^n \to y\prime = nax^{n-1} \ \ \ \tt{for \ \ polynomial \ \ function}}\\ \displaystyle \large{y = \sin (x) \to y\prime = \cos (x) }[/tex]
Therefore, from differentiating function,
[tex]\displaystyle \large{f\prime(x) = 2x \sin (x) + x^2 \cos (x)}[/tex]

A recent poll of employees working for a national fast-food chain claims that 58% of its employees eat at the fast-food chain. A sample of 200 people shows that only 42% of the employees eat at the fast-food chain.
To determine whether this sample supports the population proportion of 0.58, a simulation of 200 trials is run, each with a sample size of 50 and a point estimate of 0.42. The minimum sample proportion from the simulation is 0.31, and the maximum sample proportion from the simulation is 0.53.
What is the margin of error of the population proportion using half the range?
±0.07
±0.11
±0.13
±0.21
Answer:
Option B 0.11
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the population proportion of 0.58, a simulation of 200 trials is run, each with a sample size of 50 and a point estimate of 0.42. The minimum sample proportion from the simulation is 0.31, and the maximum sample proportion from the simulation is 0.53.
This gives an idea that confidence interval is
(0.31, 0.53) with mean being in the middle of this interval
Margin of error = 1/2 (length of this interval)
Length of confidence interval =[tex]0.53-0.31 =0.22[/tex]
Margin of error =± 1/2(0.22) = ±0.11
Hence option B is correct

e=3
To solve the equation 7(2e-1)-11=6+6e for e, distribute, combine like terms, subtract, add, and divide until you have isolated e. The solution is e=3.
Explanation:To solve for e in the equation 7(2e-1)-11=6+6e, first distribute the 7 on the left side of the equation:
14e - 7 - 11 = 6 + 6e
Now, combine like terms on both sides:
14e - 18 = 6 + 6e
Next, subtract 6e from both sides:
8e - 18 = 6
Add 18 to both sides:
8e = 24
Finally, divide by 8:
e = 3.

Downstream: 2 8 + c d = 2(8 + c)
Upstream: 3 8 - c d = 3(8 - c)
Since the distance is the same, we can set the distance equations equal to each other and solve for c.
2(8 + c) = 3(8 - c)
16 + 2c = 24 - 3c

the vehical's fuel efficiency is more than 40 miles per gallon
use f to represent the vehicle's fuel efficiency (in miles per gallon)
In this mathematical context, 'f' represents a vehicle's fuel efficiency in miles per gallon, and the given inequality f > 40 mpg indicates that the vehicle's fuel efficiency is higher than 40 miles per gallon.
Explanation:The problem refers to a situation where a vehicle achieves fuel efficiency of more than 40 miles per gallon. This efficiency is quantified using the variable 'f'.
Considering f as the vehicle's fuel efficiency in miles per gallon, you are expressing a relationship where f > 40 mpg.
Using an example: if we consider a vehicle that achieves 43 miles per gallon, this can be represented as: f = 43 mpg. This efficiency is indeed more than 40 miles per gallon, thus confirming that f > 40 mpg in this case. It's important to understand that in this context, the fuel efficiency varies from one vehicle to another. For instance, vehicles become more fuel efficient over the years due to advancements in technology and heightened fuel economy standards.

How do you get x with steps?
If ray NP bisects <MNQ, m<MNQ=(8x+12)°, m<PNQ=78°, and m<RNM=(3y-9)°, find the value of x and y
Step 1
Find the measure of angle x
we know that
If ray NP bisects <MNQ
then
m<MNQ=m<PNM+m<PNQ ------> equation A
and
m<PNM=m<PNQ -------> equation B
we have that
m<MNQ=(8x+12)°
m<PNQ=78°
so
substitute in equation A
(8x+12)=78+78-------> 8x+12=156------> 8x=156-12
8x=144------> x=18°
Step 2
Find the measure of angle y
we have
m<PNM=(3y-9)°
m<PNM=78°
so
3y-9=78------> 3y=87------> y=29°
therefore
the answer is
the measure of x is 18° and the measure of y is 29°
Answer: If NP bisects MNQ, MNQ=8x+12,PNQ=78, and RNM=3y-9, find the values of x and y
x= 18 y=11
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that MNQ= 8x+12
PNQ=78 and MNP is equal to PNQ
Therefore, PNQ=MNP
So since these two angles make up MNQ,
Add 78+78 which is 156
So now we need to find x
The equation to find x is 8x+12=156
8x+12=156
8x=144
x=18
Now that we know x it is time to find y.
So we know that RNM=3y-9
And we know that MNQ is equal to 156
RNM an MNQ form a straight line which means that it is equal to 180 degrees
So the equation to find y is 3y-9+156=180
3y-9+156=180
3y+147=180
3y=33
y=11
So in conclusion, x=18 and y=11
