#2 Jamal is an apprentice on a boat on Long Island Sound. He is helping the captain collect samples of
marine life for an environmental study, and the captain is teaching him about nautical navigation.
When the boat leaves the environmental station, it will return to its home port 9 nautical miles away.
If
the boat maintains a constant speed of 15 knots (nautical miles per hour), how many minutes will the
trip take?
Answer:
The trip will take 36 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question can be solved using a rule of three.
The boat maintains a constant speed of 15 knots (nautical miles per hour). How many minutes it will take to return to its home port 9 nautical miles away?
So in 60 minutes, 15 nautical miles. How many minutes for 9 nautical miles?
60 minutes - 15 nautical miles
x minutes - 9 nautical miles
[tex]15x = 60*9[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{60*9}{15}[/tex]
[tex]x = 36[/tex]
The trip will take 36 minutes.

1. Mrs. Verner's class has
a total of 15 students. If 8
of them are girls, what
percentage are boys?
Answer:
46.7%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total number of students in Mrs. Verner's class = 15
Number of girls = 8
To find: percentage are boys
Solution:
Percentage of boys = ( Number of boys / Total number of students ) × 100
Number of boys = Total number of students - Number of girls = 15 - 8 = 7
So,
Percentage of boys = [tex]\frac{7}{15}[/tex] × 100 = 46.7%
Among 25- to 30-year-olds, 29% say they have used a computer while under the influence of alcohol. Suppose five 25- to 30-year-olds are selected at random. Complete parts (a) through (d) below. (a) What is the probability that all five have used a computer while under the influence of alcohol? (Round to four decimal places as needed.) (b) What is the probability that at least one has not used a computer while under the influence of alcohol? (Round to four decimal places as needed.) (c) What is the probability that none of the five have used a computer while under the influence of alcohol? (Round to four decimal places as needed.) (d) What is the probability that at least one has used a computer while under the influence of alcohol? (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
Answer:
(a) The probability that all five have used a computer while under the influence of alcohol is 0.0021.
(b) The probability that at least one has not used a computer while under the influence of alcohol is 0.9979.
(c) The probability that none of the five have used a computer while under the influence of alcohol is 0.1804.
(d) The probability that at least one has used a computer while under the influence of alcohol is 0.8196.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that among 25- to 30-year-olds, 29% say they have used a computer while under the influence of alcohol.
Suppose five 25- to 30-year-olds are selected at random.
The above situation can be represented through the binomial distribution;
[tex]P(X = x) = \binom{n}{r}\times p^{r} \times (1-p)^{n-r} ; x = 0,1,2,3,.........[/tex]
where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = Five 25- to 30-year-olds
r = number of success
p = probability of success which in our question is probability that
people used a computer while under the influence of alcohol,
i.e. p = 29%.
Let X = Number of people who used computer while under the influence of alcohol.
So, X ~ Binom(n = 5, p = 0.29)
(a) The probability that all five have used a computer while under the influence of alcohol is given by = P(X = 5)
P(X = 5) = [tex]\binom{5}{5}\times 0.29^{5} \times (1-0.29)^{5-5}[/tex]
= [tex]1 \times 0.29^{5} \times 0.71^{0}[/tex]
= 0.0021
(b) The probability that at least one has not used a computer while under the influence of alcohol is given by = P(X [tex]\geq[/tex] 1)
Here, the probability of success (p) will change because now the success for us is that people have not used a computer while under the influence of alcohol = 1 - 0.29 = 0.71
SO, now X ~ Binom(n = 5, p = 0.71)
P(X [tex]\geq[/tex] 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)
= [tex]1-\binom{5}{0}\times 0.71^{0} \times (1-0.71)^{5-0}[/tex]
= [tex]1 -(1 \times 1 \times 0.29^{5})[/tex]
= 1 - 0.0021 = 0.9979.
(c) The probability that none of the five have used a computer while under the influence of alcohol is given by = P(X = 0)
P(X = 0) = [tex]\binom{5}{0}\times 0.29^{0} \times (1-0.29)^{5-0}[/tex]
= [tex]1 \times 1 \times 0.71^{5}[/tex]
= 0.1804
(d) The probability that at least one has used a computer while under the influence of alcohol is given by = P(X [tex]\geq[/tex] 1)
P(X [tex]\geq[/tex] 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)
= [tex]1-\binom{5}{0}\times 0.29^{0} \times (1-0.29)^{5-0}[/tex]
= [tex]1 -(1 \times 1 \times 0.71^{5})[/tex]
= 1 - 0.1804 = 0.8196
Jack has a rectangular patio with a length that is one foot less than twice its width. His neighbor Ron's patio has the same width but a length that is 5 feet more than its width. If Jack's patio is 120 square feet and Ron's patio is 104 square feet, how many square feet longer is Jack's patio than Ron's?
Answer:
difference in area = 16 ft²
if you use 8 the difference in length between Jack patio and his neighbor patio will be will be 15 - 13 = 2 ft
if you use 13 the difference i length will be 25 - 18 = 7 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Jacks rectangular patio
width = a
length = 2a - 1
area = lw
where
l = length
w = width
area = 120 ft²
a(2a - 1)
2a² - a - 120 = 0
(a - 8) (2a + 15)
a = 8 or -15/2
Ron's rectangular patio
width = a
length = a + 5
area = lw
area = 104 ft²
a (a + 5) = 104
a² + 5a -104 = 0
(a + 8) (a - 13)
a = -8 or 13
How many square feet longer is jack patio longer than Ron's patio is the difference in their area. Therefore,
120 - 104 = 16 ft²
The value 8 or 13 can be used for a since the width a have to be the same.
if you use 8 the difference in length between Jack patio and his neighbor patio will be will be 15 - 13 = 2 ft
if you use 13 the difference i length will be 25 - 18 = 7 ft

Determine whether the description corresponds to an observational study or an experiment.
Research is conducted to determine if there is a relation between hearing loss and exposure to mumps. exposure to mumps.
Does the description correspond to an observational study or an experiment?
A. Observational study
B. Experiment
Answer:
A. Observational study
Step-by-step explanation:
In research, an observational study is a type of study in which the researcher observes a phenomenon and tries to establish some relationship between the different variables he/she is observing. In other words, the researcher only observes and doesn't give a treatment.
On the other hand, when we have a experiment, we usually have 2 different groups (one that will receive a treatment and one who won't) and the researcher compares the differences between these two groups because of the treatment. In other words, the researcher does something other than just observing.
In this example, the research is going to determine if there is a relation between hearing loss and exposure to mumps. In this example the researcher is only going to observe how people who have been exposed to mumps are regarding hearing loss (we can say this since it will be unethical for example for the researcher to create an experiment in which he/she exposes a group to mumps). Therefore, he is going to observe how the past exposure to mumps could be related with the hearing loss.
Thus, this is an observational study.

A=
Answer:
[tex]A = \dfrac{40}{P}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Pressure [tex]p(in lbs/in^2)[/tex] varies inversely with the area [tex]A(in$ in^2)[/tex] of the sole of the shoe.
This is written as:
[tex]P \propto \frac{1}{A}\\ $Introducing the constant of variation$\\P = \dfrac{k}{A}[/tex]
When:

Ronnie invested $1500 in an account that earns 3.5% interest, compounded annually. The formula for compound interest is A(t) = P{(1 + i)^t}A(t)=P(1+i) t . How much did Ronnie have in the account after 4 years?
Answer:
BStep-by-step explanation:
A= New amount
P= Principal or Original amount which is £1500
I= Interest
t= time period
3.5% as a decimal is 3.5÷100=0.035
time period= 4 years
so 1500(1+0.035)^4 = B
The mean percent of childhood asthma prevalence in 43 cities is 2.32%. A random sample of 32 of these cities is selected. What is the probability that the mean childhood asthma prevalence for the sample is greater than 2.8%? Interpret this probability. Assume that sigmaequals1.24%. The probability is nothing.
Answer:
[tex] P(\bar X>2.8)[/tex]
We can use the z score formula given by:
[tex] z=\frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
And replacing we got:
[tex] z=\frac{2.8 -2.32}{\frac{1.24}{\sqrt{32}}}=2.190 [/tex]
And using the normal standard distribution and the complement rule we got:
[tex] P(z>2.190 )= 1-P(z<2.190) = 1-0.986=0.014[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case w eknow the following parameters:
[tex] \mu = 2.32[/tex] represent the mean
[tex]\sigma =1.24[/tex] represent the deviation
n= 32 represent the sample sze selected
We want to find the following probability:
[tex] P(\bar X>2.8)[/tex]
We can use the z score formula given by:
[tex] z=\frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
And replacing we got:
[tex] z=\frac{2.8 -2.32}{\frac{1.24}{\sqrt{32}}}=2.190 [/tex]
And using the normal standard distribution and the complement rule we got:
[tex] P(z>2.190 )= 1-P(z<2.190) = 1-0.986=0.014[/tex]
Answer:
0.55% probability that the mean childhood asthma prevalence for the sample is greater than 2.8%. This means that a sample having an asthma prevalence of greater than 2.8% is unusual event, that is, unlikely.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
Normal probability distribution
When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
If X is more than two standard deviations from the mean, it is considered an unusual outcome.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
In this question, we have that:
[tex]\mu = 2.32, \sigma = 1.24, n = 43, s = \frac{1.24}{\sqrt{43}} = 0.189[/tex]
What is the probability that the mean childhood asthma prevalence for the sample is greater than 2.8%?
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 2.8. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{2.8 - 2.32}{0.189}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.54[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.54[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9945
1 - 0.9945 = 0.0055
0.55% probability that the mean childhood asthma prevalence for the sample is greater than 2.8%. This means that a sample having an asthma prevalence of greater than 2.8% is unusual event, that is, unlikely.

Devon wants to build a ramp with the dimensions shown. How much wood does he need?
The image of the ramp with dimensions is missing, so i have attached it.
Answer:
680 in² of wood is needed.
Step-by-step explanation:
The way to find how much wood would be needed by devon would be to find the total surface area of the ramp.
From the attached image,
Let's find the area of the 2 triangles first;
A1 = 2(½bh) = bh = 15 x 8 = 120 in²
Area of the slant rectangular portion;
A2 = 17 x 14 = 238 in²
Area of the base;
A3 = 15 × 14 = 210 in²
Area of vertical rectangle;
A4 = 8 × 14 = 112 in²
Total Surface Area = A1 + A2 + A3 + A4 = 120 + 238 + 210 + 112 = 680 in²
A spinner is divided into 8 equal sections, and each section contains a number from 1 to 8. What is the probability of the spinner landing on 5? A. 1 over 13 B.1 over 8 C.5 over 13 D.5 over 8 PLEASE HURRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Answer:
B. 1 over 8
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine the probability of the spinner landing on 5, we need to first know what probability is,
probability = required outcome/all possible outcome
since the spinner is divided into 8 equal sections and each section contains number from 1-8, this implies there are total of 64 numbers on the spinner. This implies that all possible outcome = 64
In each section there is 5, since there are 8 sections on the spinner, the number of 5's on the spinner are 8.
This implies that the required outcome = 8
but
probability = required outcome/all possible outcome
probability (of the spinner landing on 5) = 8/64 =1/8

Step-by-step explanation:
select the point that is a solution to the system of inequalities
This point is below both the red diagonal line and the blue parabola. We know that the set of solution points is below both due to the "less than" parts of each inequality sign.
In contrast, a point like (2,2) is above the parabola which is why it is not a solution. It does not make the inequality [tex]y \le x^2-3x[/tex] true. So this is why we can rule choice A out.
Choice C is not a solution because (4,1) does not make [tex]y \le -x+3[/tex] true. This point is not below the red diagonal line. We can cross choice C off the list.
Choice D is similar to choice A, which is why we can rule it out as well.
1. You have a home business selling designer necklaces. You have done
some market research, which shows that at a price of $40 you can sell
500 per week, and at a price of $60 you can sell 400 per week. Assuming
that the relationship between price and quantity sold is linear, find the
price that maximizes revenue. You must use methods that we developed
and practiced in the course. You will be graded not only on your answer
but on the clarity of your presentation.
Answer:
The price that maximizes the profits from the sale of the product is $60.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since selling necklaces at $ 40 allows a total amount of 500 sales per week, while a price of $ 60 allows 400 sales at the same time, the following calculations must be made to determine the price that maximizes sales performance:
40 x 500 = $ 20,000
60 x 400 = $ 24,000
50 x 450 = $ 22,500
55 x 425 = $ 23,375
58 x 410 = $ 23,780
59 x 405 = $ 23,895
As can be seen from the calculations developed, the price that maximizes the profits from the sale of the product is $60.

A, B, and C are collinear points. B is between A and C. AB = 5x + 8 BC = 6x - 1 AC = 12x - 11 Find AC.
Answer:
AC = 198
Step-by-step explanation:
Since all these points are collinear, we know that the addition of AB plus BC should give the same as AC. We can then set an equation that addresses this identity:
AB + BC = AC
5x +8 +6x - 1 = 12x - 11
Now re-arranging like terms in order to combine them:
8 - 1 + 11 = 12x - 5x - 6x
19 - 1 = 12x - 11x
18 = x
Now that we know the value of 'x", we can determine the value of AC:
AC = 12x - 11
AC = 12 (18) - 11
AC = 216 - 18
AC = 198
The president of a university claimed that the entering class this year appeared to be larger than the entering class from previous years but their mean SAT score is lower than previous years. He took a sample of 20 of this year's entering students and found that their mean SAT score is 1,501 with a standard deviation of 53. The university's record indicates that the mean SAT score for entering students from previous years is 1,520. He wants to find out if his claim is supported by the evidence at a 5% level of significance. True or False: The null hypothesis would be rejected.
Answer:
False.
The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.
At a significance level of 5%, there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the entering class has a mean SAT score that is significantly lower than 1520.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a hypothesis test for the population mean.
The claim is that the entering class has a mean SAT score that is significantly lower than 1520.
Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:
[tex]H_0: \mu=1520\\\\H_a:\mu< 1520[/tex]
The significance level is 0.05.
The sample has a size n=20.
The sample mean is M=1501.
As the standard deviation of the population is not known, we estimate it with the sample standard deviation, that has a value of s=53.
The estimated standard error of the mean is computed using the formula:
[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{53}{\sqrt{20}}=11.851[/tex]
Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:
[tex]t=\dfrac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{1501-1520}{11.851}=\dfrac{-19}{11.851}=-1.6[/tex]
The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:
[tex]df=n-1=20-1=19[/tex]
This test is a left-tailed test, with 19 degrees of freedom and t=-1.6, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):
[tex]\text{P-value}=P(t<-1.6)=0.063[/tex]
As the P-value (0.063) is bigger than the significance level (0.05), the effect is not significant.
The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.
There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the entering class has a mean SAT score that is significantly lower than 1520.
What is the solution of the following linear system? y = 3x + 1 2y = 6x + 2
Answer:
y = 3x +1 (1)
2y = 6x +2 (2)
We can devide equation (2) by 2 and we got:
[tex] y =3x +1[/tex] (3)
And since equations (1) and (3) are equal we can do this:
[tex] 3x +1 = 3x+1[/tex]
And that implies:
[tex] 0=0[/tex]
And for this case we will have infinite solutions for the sytem given since we have two lines equal
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we have the following system of equations given:
y = 3x +1 (1)
2y = 6x +2 (2)
We can devide equation (2) by 2 and we got:
[tex] y =3x +1[/tex] (3)
And since equations (1) and (3) are equal we can do this:
[tex] 3x +1 = 3x+1[/tex]
And that implies:
[tex] 0=0[/tex]
And for this case we will have infinite solutions for the sytem given since we have two lines equal
