Answer:

0.6 or 60%

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the distribution table, the percent values within the interval of [- 2, 2] are:

0.33, 0.16, 0.11

Add them together to get the required answer:

0.33 + 0.16 + 0.11 = 0.6 or 60%

The answer is 0.6 or 60%.

The respective probabilities that lie in the interval [-2, 2] are 0.33, 0.16, and 0.11. Therefore, the probability it lies in the interval is equal to the sum of the probabilities.

0.33 + 0.16 + 0.110.49 + 0.110.6 = 60%

the center of a circle is on the line y=2x and the line x=1 is tangent to the circle at (1,6).find the center and the radius

Answers

The radius and the center of the circle are 4 units and (1,2), respectively

How to determine the center and the radius?

The center of the circle is on

y = 2x and x = 1

Substitute x = 1 in y = 2x

y = 2 * 1

Evaluate

y = 2

This means that the center is

Center = (1, 2)

Also, we have the point of tangency to be:

(x, y) = (1, 6)

This point and the center have the same x-coordinate.

So, the distance between this point and the center is

d = 6 - 2

d = 4

This represents the radius

Hence, the radius and the center of the circle are 4 units and (1,2), respectively

Suppose you pay back $575 on a $525 loan you had for 75 days. What was your simple annual interest rate? State your result to the nearest hundredth of a percent.

Answers

The simple annual interest rate for the $ 525 loan is equal to 46.35 %.

What is the interest rate behind a pay back?

In this situation we assume that the loan does not accumulate interests continuously in time. Hence, the interest rate for paying the loan back 75 days later is:

575 = 525 · (1 + r/100)

50 = 525 · r /100

5000 = 525 · r

r = 9.524

The loan has an interest rate of 9.524 % for 75 days. Simple annual interest rate is determine by rule of three:

r' = 9.524 × 365/75

Answers

The period of the function y = 2∕3 cos(4∕7x) + 2. is 7/2π

How to determine the period of the function?

The function is given as:

y = 2∕3 cos(4∕7x) + 2.

The above function is a cosine function

A cosine function is represented as:

y = A cos(B(x + C)) + D

Where the period is

Answers

The fraction of the remaining marbles in the bag will be blue is 6/17.

What fraction of the remaining marbles in the bag will be blue?

The first step is to determine the initial number of marbles in the bag:

Initial number of red marbles in the bag : (5/8) x 240 = 150

Initial number of blue marbles in the bag : (2/8) x 240 = 60

Initial number of green marbles in the bag : 240 - 150 - 60 = 30

Number of red marbles remaining after 1/3 is removed = (1 - 1/3) x 150

2/3 x 150 = 100

Number of green marbles remaining after 2/3 is removed = (1 - 2/3) x 30

1/3 x 30 = 10

Using the Empirical Rule and the Central Limit Theorem, we have that:

About 68% of the sample mean fall with in the intervals $1.64 and $1.82.About 99.7% of the sample mean fall with in the intervals $1.46 and $2.

What does the Empirical Rule state?

It states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of  the mean.Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

What does the Central Limit Theorem state?

By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means of size n has standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

In this problem, the standard deviation of the distribution of sample means is:

[tex]s = \frac{0.657}{\sqrt{50}} = 0.09[/tex]

68% of the means are within 1 standard deviation of the mean, hence the bounds are:

1.73 - 0.09 = $1.64.1.73 + 0.09 = $1.82.

99.7% of the means are within 3 standard deviations of the mean, hence the bounds are:

Answer:

About 68% of the sample means fall within the interval $1.64 and $1.82.

About 99.7% of the sample means fall within the interval $1.45 and $2.01.

Step-by-step explanation:

To verify the given intervals, we need to calculate the standard error of the mean (SE) for a sample size of 50 using the population mean and standard deviation provided.

The standard error of the mean (SE) can be calculated as:

SE = population standard deviation / √(sample size)

Given that the population mean is $1.73 and the population standard deviation is $0.657, and the sample size is 50:

SE = $0.657 / √50 ≈ $0.09299 (rounded to 5 decimal places)

Now, we can calculate the intervals:

For the interval where about 68% of the sample means fall:

Interval = (Mean - 1 * SE, Mean + 1 * SE)

Interval = ($1.73 - $0.09299, $1.73 + $0.09299)

Interval ≈ ($1.63701, $1.82299)

So, about 68% of the sample means fall within the interval $1.64 and $1.82, which matches the given statement.

For the interval where about 99.7% of the sample means fall:

Interval = (Mean - 3 * SE, Mean + 3 * SE)

Interval = ($1.73 - 3 * $0.09299, $1.73 + 3 * $0.09299)

Interval ≈ ($1.54703, $1.91297)

So, about 99.7% of the sample means fall within the interval $1.55 and $1.91, which is different from the given statement.

The correct interval for about 99.7% of the sample means, rounded to the nearest hundredth, is $1.55 and $1.91, not $1.45 and $2.01 as mentioned in the statement.

A cone is a three-dimensional structure with a round base and a point at the top, known as the vertex.

A cone is a three-dimensional solid geometric object with a point at the top and a circular base. A cone has a vertex and one face. For a cone, there are no edges.

The radius, height, and slant height of the cone are its three constituent parts.

For the supersized cone,

Volume = π(5)(5)(12)/3 = 314.29 cubic inches

For a small cone,

Volume= π(2.5)(2.5)(6)/3 = 39.29 cubic inches

Combined volume of 4 such cones = 4*39.29 = 157.16 cubic inches

A tank originally contains 100 gallon of fresh water. Then water containing 0.5 Lb of salt per gallon is pourd into the tank at a rate of 2 gal/minute, and the mixture is allowed to leave at the same rate. After 10 minute the process is stopped, and fresh water is poured into the tank at a rate of 2 gal/min, with the mixture again leaving at the same rate. Find the amount of salt in the tank at end of an additional 10 minutes.

Answers

Let [tex]S(t)[/tex] denote the amount of salt (in lbs) in the tank at time [tex]t[/tex] min up to the 10th minute. The tank starts with 100 gal of fresh water, so [tex]S(0)=0[/tex].

Salt flows into the tank at a rate of

[tex]\left(0.5\dfrac{\rm lb}{\rm gal}\right) \left(2\dfrac{\rm gal}{\rm min}\right) = 1\dfrac{\rm lb}{\rm min}[/tex]

and flows out with rate

[tex]\left(\dfrac{S(t)\,\rm lb}{100\,\mathrm{gal} + \left(2\frac{\rm gal}{\rm min} - 2\frac{\rm gal}{\rm min}\right)t}\right) \left(2\dfrac{\rm gal}{\rm min}\right) = \dfrac{S(t)}{50} \dfrac{\rm lb}{\rm min}[/tex]

Then the net rate of change in the salt content of the mixture is governed by the linear differential equation

[tex]\dfrac{dS}{dt} = 1 - \dfrac S{50}[/tex]

Solving with an integrating factor, we have

[tex]\dfrac{dS}{dt} + \dfrac S{50} = 1[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{dS}{dt} e^{t/50}+ \dfrac1{50}Se^{t/50} = e^{t/50}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{d}{dt} \left(S e^{t/50}\right) = e^{t/50}[/tex]

By the fundamental theorem of calculus, integrating both sides yields

[tex]\displaystyle S e^{t/50} = Se^{t/50}\bigg|_{t=0} + \int_0^t e^{u/50}\, du[/tex]

[tex]S e^{t/50} = S(0) + 50(e^{t/50} - 1)[/tex]

[tex]S = 50 - 50e^{-t/50}[/tex]

After 10 min, the tank contains

[tex]S(10) = 50 - 50e^{-10/50} = 50 \dfrac{e^{1/5}-1}{e^{1/5}} \approx 9.063 \,\rm lb[/tex]

of salt.

Now let [tex]\hat S(t)[/tex] denote the amount of salt in the tank at time [tex]t[/tex] min after the first 10 minutes have elapsed, with initial value [tex]\hat S(0)=S(10)[/tex].

Fresh water is poured into the tank, so there is no salt inflow. The salt that remains in the tank flows out at a rate of

[tex]\left(\dfrac{\hat S(t)\,\rm lb}{100\,\mathrm{gal}+\left(2\frac{\rm gal}{\rm min}-2\frac{\rm gal}{\rm min}\right)t}\right) \left(2\dfrac{\rm gal}{\rm min}\right) = \dfrac{\hat S(t)}{50} \dfrac{\rm lb}{\rm min}[/tex]

so that [tex]\hat S[/tex] is given by the differential equation

[tex]\dfrac{d\hat S}{dt} = -\dfrac{\hat S}{50}[/tex]

We solve this equation in exactly the same way.

[tex]\dfrac{d\hat S}{dt} + \dfrac{\hat S}{50} = 0[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{d\hat S}{dt} e^{t/50} + \dfrac1{50}\hat S e^{t/50} = 0[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{d}{dt} \left(\hat S e^{t/50}\right) = 0[/tex]

[tex]\hat S e^{t/50} = \hat S(0)[/tex]

[tex]\hat S = 50 \dfrac{e^{1/5}-1}{e^{1/5}} e^{-t/50}[/tex]

After another 10 min, the tank has

[tex]\hat S(10) = 50 \dfrac{e^{1/5}-1}{e^{1/5}} e^{-1/5} = 50 \dfrac{e^{1/5}-1}{e^{2/5}} \approx \boxed{7.421}[/tex]

∴ [tex]x[/tex] + 78° = 145°

⇒ [tex]x[/tex] = 145° - 78°

⇒ [tex]x[/tex] = 67°

Please help me with this problem. Seriously desperate again !!

The dimensions are 7 inches by 17 inches.

What is the area of rectangle?

Let the length be l inches

Let the breadth be b inches

Area = l*b

We can find dimensions as shown below:

Let the length be x inches

Let the width be y inches

Area = 119 square inches

x=3+2y             (1)

Area = l*w

119 = x*y

Putting value of x

119 = (3+2y) *y

119 = 3y+2y^2

2y^2+3y-119=0

2y^2-14y+17y-119=0

2y(y-7) +17(y-7) =0

(y-7) (2y+17) =0

y=7, -17/2

y cannot be negative

so, y = 7

Putting in equation (1)

x=3+2(7)

= 3+14

= 17

Hence, the dimensions are 7 inches by 17 inches.

c. What is the P-value?
d. What is the conclusion about the null hypothesis?
e. What is the final conclusion?

Answers

The test statistic is 27.8484, the p-value is 0, and the final conclusion is that the null hypothesis H is rejected.

Given that 914 babies were born to parents who used the new method, and 877 of them were girls, the significance level to test the claim that the new method is effective in increasing the likelihood of a baby being a girl, is 0.01.

The following information is provided: the sample size is N = 914, the number of favorable cases is X = 877, and the sampling ratio is

pˉ = X / N

Pˉ = 877/914

pˉ = 0.9595 and the significance level is α = 0.01

(a) Hypothesis Zero and Alternative

The following null and alternative hypotheses should be tested:

null: p = 0.5

Alternative: p> 0.5

This is equivalent to a right-tailed test, which requires a z-test for a proportion of the population.

(b) Critical Value

Based on the information provided, the significance level is α = 0.01, so the critical value for this right-tailed test is Zc = 2.3263. This can be found using Excel or the Z distribution table. Region of rejection

The rejection area for this test on the right side is Z> 2.3263

Test statistics

The z-statistic is calculated as follows:

[tex]\begin{aligned}Z&=\frac{\bar{p}-p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}}\\ &=\frac{0.9595-0.50}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{914}}}\\ &=\frac{0.4595}{0.0165}\\ &=27.8484\end[/tex]

(c) The p-value

The p-value is the probability that the sample results are extreme or more extreme than the sample results obtained, assuming the null hypothesis is true. In this case,

the p-value is p = P (Z> 27.8484) = 0

(d) The decision on the null hypothesis

Using the traditional method

Since we observe that Z = 27.8484> Zc = 2.3263, we conclude that the null hypothesis is rejected.

Using the p-value method

Using the approximation of the P-value: the p-value is p = 0, and since p = 0≤0.01 we conclude that the null hypothesis is rejected.

(e) Conclusion

It is concluded that the null hypothesis H is rejected. Therefore, there is sufficient evidence to state that the population proportion p is greater than 0.5, at the significance level of 0.01.

Hence, for 914 babies born to parents using the new method, of which 877 were girls, the test statistic is 27.8484, the p-value is 0, and the final conclusion is that the null hypothesis is rejected.

evaluate the sin, cos and tan for 120deg without using a calculator

Answers

Using equivalent angles, we have that the measures are given as follows:

[tex]\sin{120^\circ} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex][tex]\cos{120^\circ} = -\frac{1}{2}[/tex][tex]\tan{120^\circ} = -\sqrt{3}[/tex]

What are equivalent angles?

Each angle on the second, third and fourth quadrants will have an equivalent on the first quadrant.

120º is in the second quadrant, hence the equivalent on the first quadrant is:

180º - 120º = 60º.

The sine on the second quadrant is positive, hence:

[tex]\sin{120^\circ} = \sin{60^{\circ}} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex]

The cosine on the second quadrant is negative, hence:

[tex]\cos{120^\circ} = \cos{60^{\circ}} = -\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

The tangent is given by the sine divided by the cosine, hence:

[tex]\tan{120^\circ} = \frac{\sin{120^\circ}}{\cos{120^\circ}} = -\sqrt{3}[/tex]

If a 17-foot ladder makes a 71° angle with the ground, how many feet up a wall will it reach? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Given the length of the ladder and the angle it made with the ground, it will reach 16.7 ft up the wall.

How many feet up the wall will the ladder reach?

Given that;

Angle with the ground θ = 71°Length of the ladder / hypotenuse = 17ftLength of wall = x

To determine the length wall from the tip of the ladder to the ground level, we use trigonometric ratio since the scenario forms a right angle triangle.

Sinθ = Opposite / Hypotenuse

Sin( 71° ) = x / 17ft

x = Sin( 71° ) × 17ft

x = 0.9455 × 17ft

x = 16.1 ft

Given the length of the ladder and the angle it made with the ground, it will reach 16.7 ft up the wall.
