Answer:
a = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Explanation:-
Given P(x) = 2 x+4 a
Q(x)=4 x - 2
P( Q(4)) = 60
P(4 (4) - 2) = 60
P( 14 ) = 60
2 (14) + 4 a = 60
4 a + 28 = 60
Subtracting '28' on both sides , we get
4 a +28 - 28 = 60 - 28
4 a = 32
Dividing '4' on both sides , we get
a = 8
A driver and a passenger are in a car accident. Each of them independently has probability 0.3 of being hospitalized. When a hospitalization occurs, the loss is uniformly distributed on [0, 1]. When two hospitalizations occur, the losses are independent. Calculate the expected number of people in the car who are hospitalized, given that the total loss due to hospitalizations from the accident is less than 1.
Answer:
0.534
Step-by-step explanation:
p(0 losses) = 0.7² = 0.49
p(1 loss) = 2 x 0.3 x 0.7 = 0.42
p(2 losses) = 0.09
This is a conditional probability problem. If the number of people hospitalized is 0 or 1, then the total loss will be less than 1. However, if two people are hospitalized, the probability that the total loss will be less than 1 is 0.5. we need to exclude the 50% x 0.09 chance of a double loss costing more than 1. So
P(Cost < 1)
= 0.49 + 0.42 +0.045
= 0.955
P(0 losses | Cost < 1)
= P(0 losses and Cost < 1) / P(Cost < 1)
= 0.49 / 0.955 = 0.513
P(1 loss | Cost < 1)
= 0.42 / 0.955 = 0.440
P(2 losses | Cost < 1) = 0.045 / 0.955 = 0.047
Now take the expectation:
E[X] = (0)(0.513) + (1)(0.440) + (2)(0.047)
= 0.440 + 0.094
= 0.534
Adam earns $45,000 in his first year as an accountant and earns a 3% increase in each
successive year.
(a) Write a geometric series formula,
n S
, for Adam’s total earnings over
n
years.
(b) Use this formula to find Adam’s total earnings for her first 12 years of his job, to the nearest
cent.
Answer:
$638641.33
Step-by-step explanation:
Adam earns $45,000 in his first year.
His salary increases by 3% each successive year. Therefore, his salary the next year is 103% of his previous year.
This is a geometric sequence where the:
First Term, a= $45,000Common ratio, r =103%=1.03(a)
Sum of geometric series[tex]=\dfrac{a(r^n-1)}{r-1}[/tex]
Substituting the given values, Adam's total earnings over n years
[tex]=\dfrac{45000(1.03^n-1)}{1.03-1}\\\\$Adam's Total Earnings=\dfrac{45000(1.03^n-1)}{0,03}[/tex]
(b)When n=12 years
[tex]\text{Adam's Total Earnings for the first 12 years=}\dfrac{45000(1.03^{12}-1)}{0.03}\\=\$638641.33$ (correct to the nearest cent)[/tex]

Which would be a correct first step to solve the following system of equations using the elimination method?
x + 3y = 16
2x + y = -18
A: Add the two equations together
B: Subtract the first equation from the second equation
C: Multiply the first equation by -2
D: Multiply the second equation by 2
Answer:
C: Multiply the first equation by -2
Step-by-step explanation:
-2 * (x + 3y = 16) = -2x-6y=-32
The resulting equation would be -2x-6y=-32
In the next if you add the two equations, you will successfuly eliminate x and can now solve for y.
-2x-6y=-32
2x + y = -18
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
x+3y=16________________eqn 1
2x+y=-18_______________eqn 2
multiply first equation by - 2
-2(x+3y=16)
-2x-6y= -32______________eqn 3
using elimination method
-2x-6y= -32
+
2x+y= -18
0-5y= -50
-5y= -50
divide both sides by -5
-5y/5= -50/5
y=10
substitute y in eqn 2 to find the value of x
2x+y= -18
2x+(10)= -18
2x+10= -18
2x= -18-10
2x= -28
divide both sides by 2
2x/2= -28/2
x= -14
8b-ab=7a, .subtracted from 3a-9ab+b
Answer: You can't. Read explanation.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can't subtract an expression from an equation. If you said something like subtract 8b-ab+7a from 3a-9ab+b that would work, but not here.
Let's just assume You mean it as 8b-ab-7a, then (3a-9ab+b)-(8b-ab-7a) = -8ab + 10a - 7b.

Here's a graph of a linear function. Write the
equation that describes that function.
Express it in slope-intercept form.
Answer:
y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Use rise over run to find the slope, which will get you 1/2 as the slope
The y-intercept is at (0, -5) so put -5 in the equation
Answer: y= 1/2x + -5
Step-by-step explanation: slope is 1/2 because the line is going up one and over 2 (rise over run), the y intercept is -5 because that is where the line hits on the y axis

5. A company sells small, colored binder clips in packages of 20 and offers a money-back guarantee if two or more of the clips are defective. Suppose a clip is defective with probability 0.01, independently of other clips. Let X denote the number of defective clips in a package of 20. (a) The distribution of the random variable X is (choose one) (i) binomial (ii) hypergeometric (iii) negative binomial (iv) Poisson. (b) Specify the value of the parameter(s) of the chosen distribution and find the probability that a package sold will be refunded.
Answer:
a) Binomial.
b) n=20, p=0.01, k≥2
The probability hat a package sold will be refunded is P=0.0169.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) We know that
the defective probability is constant and independent.the sample size is bigger than one subject.The most appropiate distribution to represent this random variable is the binomial.
b) The parameters are:
Sample size (amount of clips in the package): n=20Probability of defective clips: p=0.01.number of defective clips that trigger the money-back guarantee: k≥2The probability of the package being refunded can be calculated as:
[tex]P(x\geq2)=1-(P(x=0)+P(x=1))\\\\\\P(x=k) = \dbinom{n}{k} p^{k}q^{n-k}\\\\\\P(x=0) = \dbinom{20}{0} p^{0}q^{20}=1*1*0.8179=0.8179\\\\\\P(x=1) = \dbinom{20}{1} p^{1}q^{19}=20*0.01*0.8262=0.1652\\\\\\P(x\geq2)=1-(0.8179+0.1652)=1-0.9831=0.0169[/tex]
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development publishes data on the fair market monthly rent for existing one-bedroom housing by metropolitan area (The Federal Register, April 30 1997). The standard deviation for the monthly rent is about $80. Assume that a sample of metropolitan areas will be selected in order to estimate the population mean of the monthly rent for existing one-bedroom housing. Use 95% confidence. a. How large should the sample be if the desired margin of error is $25?
Answer:
[tex]n=(\frac{1.960(80)}{25})^2 =246.73 \approx 247[/tex]
So the answer for this case would be n=247 rounded up to the nearest integer
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the standard deviation is :
[tex]\sigma = 80[/tex] represent the deviation
The margin of error is given by this formula:
[tex] ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex] (a)
And on this case we have that ME =25 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:
[tex]n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2[/tex] (b)
The critical value for 95% of confidence interval now can be founded using the normal distribution and the critical value would be [tex]z_{\alpha/2}=1.960[/tex], replacing into formula (b) we got:
[tex]n=(\frac{1.960(80)}{25})^2 =246.73 \approx 247[/tex]
So the answer for this case would be n=247 rounded up to the nearest integer

IWhat is the equation of a line that passes through the points (3, 6) and (8, 4)?
Answer:
[tex] (x_1 =2, y_1 = 6), (x_2 = 2, y_2 = 4)[/tex]
[tex] m =\frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1}[/tex]
And replacing we got:
[tex] m=\frac{4-6}{8-3}= -\frac{2}{5}[/tex]
And for this case we can use the first point to find the intercept like this:
[tex] 6 = -\frac{2}{5}(3) +b[/tex]
And solving we got:
[tex] b = 6 +\frac{6}{5}= \frac{36}{5}[/tex]
And then the line equation would be given by:
[tex] y = -\frac{2}{5}x +\frac{36}{5}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we have the following two points given:
[tex] (x_1 =2, y_1 = 6), (x_2 = 2, y_2 = 4)[/tex]
And for this case we want an equation for a line with the two points given by:
[tex] y = mx+b[/tex]
Wher m is the slope and b the y intercept. We can find the slope with this formula:
[tex] m =\frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1}[/tex]
And replacing we got:
[tex] m=\frac{4-6}{8-3}= -\frac{2}{5}[/tex]
And for this case we can use the first point to find the intercept like this:
[tex] 6 = -\frac{2}{5}(3) +b[/tex]
And solving we got:
[tex] b = 6 +\frac{6}{5}= \frac{36}{5}[/tex]
And then the line equation would be given by:
[tex] y = -\frac{2}{5}x +\frac{36}{5}[/tex]

The critical value for 80% of confidence interval now can be founded using the normal distribution the significance level would be 20% and the critical value [tex]z_{\alpha/2}=1.28[/tex], replacing into formula (b) we got:
[tex]n=(\frac{1.28(1.8)}{0.12})^2 =368.64 \approx 369[/tex]
So the answer for this case would be n=369 rounded up to the nearest integer
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the following info given:
[tex] \sigma = 1.8[/tex] represent the standard deviation
[tex]\mu = 5.8[/tex] the true mean that she believes
[tex] ME = 0.12[/tex] represent the margin of error
The margin of error is given by this formula:
[tex] ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex] (a)
And on this case we have that ME =+0.12 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:
[tex]n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2[/tex] (b)
The critical value for 80% of confidence interval now can be founded using the normal distribution the significance level would be 20% and the critical value [tex]z_{\alpha/2}=1.28[/tex], replacing into formula (b) we got:
[tex]n=(\frac{1.28(1.8)}{0.12})^2 =368.64 \approx 369[/tex]

You are earning an average of $47,400 and will retire in 10 years. If you put 20% of your gross average income in an ordinary annuity compounded at 7% annually, what will be the value of the annuity when you retire?
Answer: the value of the annuity when you retire is $130919
Step-by-step explanation:
We would apply the future value which is expressed as
FV = C × [{(1 + r)^n - 1}/r]
Where
C represents the yearly payments.
FV represents the amount of money
in your account at the end of 10 years.
r represents the annual rate.
n represents number of years or period.
From the information given,
r = 7% = 7/100 = 0.07
C = 20/100 × 47400 = $9480
n = 10 years
Therefore,
FV = 9480 × [{(1 + 0.07)^10 - 1}/0.07]
FV = 9480 × [{1.967 - 1}/0.07]
FV = 9480 × 13.81
FV = $130919
Mario’s Restaurant is planning to tile the floor of their outdoor dining area, represented by the composite figure below. The tile costs $1.50 per square foot. How much should the restaurant plan to spend on tile to complete the job?
Answer:
Cost of tiling the floor of the restaurant = $346.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Mario's restaurant is in the shape of a composite figure.
Area of the composite figure = Area of the rectangle + Area of trapezoid
Area of the rectangle = 3 × 9
= 27 square feet
Area of the trapezoid = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(b_{1}+b_{2}).h[/tex]
Here [tex]b_{1}[/tex] and [tex]b_{2}[/tex] are the parallel sides of the trapezoid and 'h' is the distance between these sides.
Area of the trapezoid = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[12+(31-9)]\times 12[/tex]
= 17 × 12
= 204 square feet
Total area of the floor = 27 + 204
= 231 square feet
Cost of the tiles = $1.5 per square feet
Total Cost of tiling the floor of Mario's restaurant will be,
= per square feet cost × Area of the floor
= 1.50 × 231
= $346.5
