A forest ranger wants to estimate the probability of catching a bass in a lake when using a special type of bait. Describe a process the ranger could use to estimate the probability of catching a bass in the lake.

Answers

The probability of catching a bass in the lake is given by:

Probability = probability 1 × probability 2

How to calculate the probability of catching a bass?

Since the forest ranger caught a fish from his prior fishing experience, we can infer that he has a probability of catching a bass in a lake:

Probability 1 = Number of fish caught/Number of tries

By using a special type of bait, he should calculate the probability of catching a fish as follows:

Probability 2 = Number of fish caught/Number of tries

Therefore, the probability of catching a bass in the lake is given by:

Probability = probability 1 × probability 2

Answers

Answer:

x = -9, y = 8

or,

(-9, 8)

Explanation:

Equation 1: 2x + 3y = 6

Equation 2: 4x - y = -44

To solve by substitution, make y subject for equation 2.

4x - y = -44

-y = -44 - 4x

y = 4x + 44

Substitute this y value into equation 1.

2x + 3(4x + 44) = 6

2x + 12x + 132 = 6

14x = 6 - 132

14x = -126

x = -9

Now, find y value:

y = 4x + 44

y = 4(-9) + 44

y = 8

To check for solution, insert x and y value in either equations.

2x + 3y = 6

insert values

2(-9) + 3(8) = 6

6 = 6

Hence, the solution is correct as both sides equal.

Answer:

Therefore x = -9 and y = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitution method

Equation (1) 2x + 3y = 6

Equation (2) ——— 4x - y = -44

When using substitution method , make x the subject of equation (1).

2x + 3y = 6

2x = 6 - 3y

x = 3 - 3y/2

Substitute the value of x in equation (2) to find y.

4(3 - 3y/2) - y = -44

12 - 6y - y = -44

Subtract 12 from both sides.

12 - 12 - 7y = -44 - 12

-7y = -56

y = 8

Substitute the value of y in equation (1) to find x.

2x + 3y = 6

2x + 3(8) = 6

2x +24 = 6

Subtract 24 from both sides.

2x + 24 - 24= 6 - 24

2x = -18

x = -9

Therefore x = -9 and y = 8.

To check out the solution.

Equation (1) 2x + 3y = 6 , x = -9 , find y.

Substitute the value of x

2(-9) + 3y = 6

-18 + 3y = 6

Add 18 to both sides.

-18 + 18 + 3y = 6 + 18

3y = 24

y = 8

Substitute the value of y in equation (1) .

2x +3(8) = 6

2x + 24 = 6

Subtract 24 from both sides.

2x + 24 - 24 = 6 -24

2x = -18

x = -9

As you can see when you substitute the value of x and y in the equation(1) , you get the same value of x and y ,which is -9 and 8 respectively. So the solution is correct.

a. The continuous growth rate of the bacteria is 21%

b. The initial population of bacteria is 715

c. The culture will contain 2043 bacteria after 6 × 10⁻⁴ years

a. What is the continuous rate of growth of this bacteria population?

Since [tex]n(t) = 715e^{0.21t}[/tex] represents the number of bacteria in the culture.

This function is similar to an exponential function of the form  [tex]y(t) = Ae^{\lambda t}[/tex] where λ = growth rate

Comparing n(t) and y(t), we see that λ = 0.21

So, the continuous growth rate of the bacteria is 0.21 = 0.21 × 100 %

= 21%

So, the continuous growth rate of the bacteria is 21%

b. What is the initial population of the culture?

Since [tex]n(t) = 715e^{0.21t}[/tex] represents the number of bacteria in the culture, the initial population of bacteria is obtained when t = 0.

So, [tex]n(t) = 715e^{0.21t}[/tex]

[tex]n(0) = 715e^{0.21(0)} \\= 715e^{0} \\= 715 X 1\\= 715[/tex]

So, the initial population of bacteria is 715

c. When will the culture contain 2043 bacteria?

To find the time when the number of bacteria will be 2043, this means n(t) = 2043.

Since  [tex]n(t) = 715e^{0.21t}[/tex]

Making t subject of the formula, we have

t = ㏑[n(t)/715]/0.21

So, substituting n(t) = 2043 into the equation, we have

t = ㏑[n(t)/715]/0.21

t = ㏑[2043/715]/0.21

t = ㏑[2.8573]/0.21

t = 1.05/0.21

t = 4.99

t ≅ 5 hours

Converting this to years, we have t = 5 h × 1 day/24h × 1 year/365 days

= 5/8760

= 5.7 × 10⁻⁴ years

≅ 6 × 10⁻⁴ years

So, the culture will contain 2043 bacteria after 6 × 10⁻⁴ years

3. Jorge earns a 9% commission on all of his sales. He had sales of
$89,400 for the month. Harris works for a different company, and also
sold $89,400 for the month but made $447 more than Jorge. What is
Harris' commission rate?

Answers

The commission rate exists at $8,493 with a rate of 9.5%.

How to estimate the commission rate?

Jorge earns 9% from all his sales, so his commission exists

89400 × 0.09 = $8046

Harris made $447 more than that, so his commission exists

8046 + 447 = $8493

To estimate his commission rate, we can utilize the subsequent equation

89400 × rate percentage = 8493

Rate percentage = 8493 / 89400

Rate percentage = 0.095

Rate percentage = 9.5%

So Harris' commission exists at $8,493 with a rate of 9.5%.

Therefore, the commission rate exists at $8,493 with a rate of 9.5%.

The graph is added as an attachment

The form of the graph is

[tex]f(x) = a\sqrt{x + b[/tex]

The graph passes through the points (2, 0) and (6, -2).

So, we have:

[tex]0 = a\sqrt{2 + b[/tex] and [tex]-2 = a\sqrt{6 + b[/tex]

Solve for b in [tex]0 = a\sqrt{2 + b[/tex]

Divide both sides by a

0 = 2 + b

Subtract 2 from both sides

b = -2

Substitute b = -2 in [tex]-2 = a\sqrt{6 + b[/tex]

[tex]-2 = a\sqrt{6 -2[/tex]

[tex]-2 = a\sqrt{4[/tex]

Evaluate the square root

-2 = 2a

a = -1

Substitute b = -2 and a = -1 in [tex]f(x) = a\sqrt{x + b[/tex]

The median value of x is 2.

According to the statement

we have given the values of x at some points then

and we have to find the median for the x.

We know that the median formula is {(n + 1) ÷ 2}th, where “n” is the number of items in the set and “th” just means the (n)th number.

and after put the values in this formula we get our median value for x.

So,

we have given that the f(x) is 0.2 when x is from -1 to 0

and f(x) is 0.2 +1.2x when x is grater than 0 but less than 1

and f(x) is 0 when x is less than -1 or grater than 1

From these statements it is clear that the the f(x) is only exist when the x lies in between from the -1 to 1.

So, the total value of x becomes is -1,0,1

Answers

The probability comes out to be 9/32.

Deducing Arrival Time Possibility

All the possible arrival times by Alice and Bob, in minutes after 5 PM, is constrained by the values of given values of x and y,

x = 0, y = 0, x = 60, y = 60.

Here, let the values of x represent how many minutes after 5 PM Alice arrives at the party.

Let the y values represent the time in minutes that Bob arrives at the party after 5 PM.

Calculating the Required Probability

The times that concern us, however, are obtained by the following probability function,

x + y ≤ 45.

And x = 0, y = 0, and x + y ≤ 45 define the constraints of this probability function. Thus the perimeter of such a graph will be given as,

(45² / 2) = 1012.5 square units

Since the total area of the various arrival times is 60 x 60, or 3600 square units, the probability that Alice and Bob will arrive together after 5 o'clock in the evening in less than 45 minutes is therefore = 1012.5 / 3600 = 9/32

The range of values of y is -1.6 < y < 7

How to determine the range?

The complete question is added as an attachment

From the attached image, we have the following sides

4y + 15 and 5y + 8

Both sides must be greater than 0.

So, we have:

4y + 15 > 0 and 5y + 8 > 0

Rewrite as:

4y > -15 and 5y > - 8

Solve for y

y > -3.75 and y > -1.6

If y is less than -1.6, the side 5y + 8 would be negative.

So, we make use of the inequality y > -1.6 as one of the range

Also, 4y + 15 is greater than 5y + 8.

So, we have:

4y + 15 > 5y + 8

Evaluate the like terms

-y > -7

Divide by -1

y < 7

So, we have:

y > -1.6 and y < 7

Combine both inequalities

-1.6 < y < 7

Answers

The total earnings for the year is $18,900.

What is the total earnings?

The total earnings is a sum of the annual salary, commission and Christmas bonus.

Commission = 6% x (160,000 - 20,000) =

6% x $140,000

0.06 x 140,000 =  $8,400

Total earnings =  $8,400 + 10,000 + $500 = $18,900
