What is the PERT weighted average based on an optimistic estimate of six days, a most likely estimate of eight days, and a pessimistic time of sixteen days

Answers

Answer 1

the PERT weighted average is 9 days

What is PERT weighted average?

PERT can be defined as an estimating technique that uses a weighted average of three numbers to get a final estimate.

The formula for finding the PERT weighted average is given as;

PERT weighted average = (Optimistic + (4 X Most Likely) + Pessimistic)/6

We have;

Optimistic = 6 daysMost likely = 8 daysPessimistic = 16 days

Substitute the values into the formula

PERT weighted average  = [tex]\frac{6 + 4(8) + 16 }{6}[/tex]

PERT weighted average  = [tex]\frac{54}{6}[/tex]

PERT weighted average  = 9 days

Thus, the PERT weighted average is 9 days

Some bacteria double in every hour. if there were 2 bacteria in the beginning, how many bacteria will be there after 6 hours? how many bacteria will be there after 24 hours?

Answers

Using an exponential function, it is found that:

After 6 hours, there will be 256 bacteria.After 24 hours, there will be 33,554,432 bacteria.

What is an exponential function?

An exponential function is modeled by:

[tex]y = ab^x[/tex].

In which:

a is the initial value.b is the growth rate.

The parameters for this problem are given as follows:

a = 2, b = 2.

Miguel is making pudding. The recipe yields
6 servings and calls for 2
cups of milk. How
many cups of milk will Miguel need for 18
servings of pudding?

Answers

Using the given recipe, he will need 6 cups of milk to make 18 servings.

How many cups of milk will Miguel need for 18 servings of pudding?

We know that the recipe for 6 servings, calls for 2 cups of milk.

Miguel wants to do 18 servings, Then he needs to use the recipe:

18 = x*6

Solving the linear equation for x:

x = 18/6 = 3

So he needs to use his recipe 3 times.

And we know that for 6 servings he needs 2 cups of milk, then for 18 he needs:

3*(2 cups) = 6 cups of milk.

Using the given recipe, he will need 6 cups of milk to make 18 servings.

A random sample of 1001 Americans aged 18-24 years showed that 51% believe their health is extremely important. The interval that is 95% certain to contain the proportion of all 18-24 year olds who believe that their health is extremely important is

Answers

Between 48% and 54% believe that their health is extremely important.

According to the statement

Given that a random sample of 1001 Americans aged 18-24 years showed that 51% believe their health is extremely important.

Here

Sample size n =1001

sample proportion p = 0.51

By these values we calculate the Standard error of proportion.

So, Standard error of proportion = 0.0158.

Since sample size is sufficiently large we can take Z critical value for confidence interval

Z critical value for 95% = 1.96

Margin of error = ±1.96*std error

= ±0.0310

confidence interval = 0.51 ±0.0310

= (0.48, 0.54)

So, Between 48% and 54% believe that their health is extremely important.

If the variance of a security is 0.01545, what is the standard deviation?
A. 0.1545
B. 0.1243
C. 0.0155
D. 0.1121

Answers

The standard deviation is 0.1243, given the variance to be 0.01545, making option B the right choice.

Dispersion is measured by variance. A metric called a "measure of dispersion" is used to assess how variable data are concerning an average value. There are two sorts of data: grouped and ungrouped. Data is referred to as grouped data when it is presented as class intervals. On the other hand, it is referred to as ungrouped data if it comprises just individual data points. For both types of data, the sample and population variances may be calculated.

The variance of the provided data is obtained by taking the square of the standard deviation. The standard deviation is used to determine how widely distributed the data points are about the mean. In other words, the standard deviation is used to determine how observations in a data collection deviate from the mean. While the standard deviation has the same unit as the population or the sample, variance is represented in square units.

In the question, we are asked to find the standard deviation, if the variance is 0.01545.

We know that Variance = (Standard Deviation)².

This gives us:

Standard Deviation = √Variance,

or, Standard Deviation = √0.01545,

or, Standard Deviation = 0.12429802894 ≈ 0.1243.

Thus, the standard deviation is 0.1243, given the variance to be 0.01545, making option B the right choice.

Answers

The linear function that shows that the number of cars seen each week by the mechanic is:

f(x) = -5x + 200.

What is a linear function?

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

During the first week analyzed, the amount of cars was of 200, hence the y-intercept is of 200. In 5 weeks, the amount decayed by 25, hence the slope is given by:

m = -25/5 = -5.

Thus the linear function that shows that the number of cars seen each week by the mechanic is:

f(x) = -5x + 200.

Answer:

f(x) = −5x + 250

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we must find the slope. We can take 2 points. (10, 100) and (15,175)

Using y2-y1/x2-x1=m, we find that the slope =-5. to find the y-intercept, we have to find that y= when x=0. Since 10 weeks passed since the begining, we can inverse the slope to find 5(cars)x10(weeks)=50.

so, 200(week10)+50(week 1)=250

f(x)=-5x+250.

(HELP!) now consider 0=-120. Draw the angle 0=-120 on the circle below. Make sure you rotate clockwise for the negative angle. It needs to be approximate, but not precise.

Answers

The reference angle after rotating the unit circle anti-clockwise is;  π/3 Radians

How to draw a Unit Circle?

To draw the angle θ = -120° in the unit circle, we will move clockwise 90°, and thereafter another angle of 30°.

This tells us that we pass the fourth quadrant and stop in the third quadrant.

The reference angle of an angle theta in the third quadrant, is; θ + 180°.

Thus, the reference angle of -120° is; -120° + 180° = 60°.

Converting 60° to radians gives; (60/360) * 2π Radians = π/3 Radians

Thus, the Reference angle is π/3 Radians

Order the values in the data set:

Answers

The value is J = 1.71*10^-6 kmol/m^2.s

According to the given conditions we get,

The length the tube l= 0.20m

The diameter of the tube d= 0.01m

The total pressure inside the tube P= 101.32kPa

The partial pressure of CO2 at the first end is

P1= 456mm Hg = 60794.832 Pa

The partial pressure of CO2 at the other end is

P2= 76mm Hg = 10132.472 Pa

The temperature is T = 298 K

The diffusion coefficient D= 1.67* 10^-5 m^2/s

Generally the molar flux of CO2 is mathematically represented as

J= D{p1-p2} / R.T

Given that a and b are legs and c is the hypotenuse. length of legs of a right angled triangle  are 7 feet and 7 feet.

We have to find the value of c in the right angled triangle.

In this we have to apply pythagoras theorem because it says tat the square of hypotenuse is equal to the sum of squares of base and perpendicular of that right angled triangle.
