Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Decay Problem.Decay rate,  r = 0.014Initial Amount =120,000[tex]P(t)=120000(0.986)^t[/tex]P(10)=104,220

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential function for growth/decay is given as:

[tex]P(t)=P_0(1 \pm r)^t, where:\\P_0$ is the Initial Population\\r is the growth/decay rate\\t is time[/tex]

In this problem:

The city's initial population is 120,000 and it decreases by 1.4% per year.

Since the population decreases, it is a Decay Problem.Decay rate, r=1.4% =0.014Initial Amount =120,000

Therefore, the function is:

[tex]P(t)=120000(1 - 0.014)^t\\P(t)=120000(0.986)^t[/tex]

When t=10 years

[tex]P(10)=120000(0.986)^10\\=104219.8\\\approx 104220 $ (to the nearest whole number)[/tex]

The top and bottom margins of a poster are each 15 cm and the side margins are each 10 cm. If the area of printed material on the poster is fixed at 2400 cm2, find the dimensions of the poster with the smallest area.

Answers

Answer:

the dimension of the poster = 90 cm length and 60 cm  width i.e 90 cm by 60 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given question.

Let p be the length of the of the printed material

Let q be the width of the of the printed material

Therefore pq = 2400 cm ²

q = [tex]\dfrac{2400 \ cm^2}{p}[/tex]

To find the dimensions of the poster; we have:

the length of the poster to be p+30 and the width to be [tex]\dfrac{2400 \ cm^2}{p} + 20[/tex]

The area of the printed material can now be:  [tex]A = (p+30)(\dfrac{2400 }{p} + 20)[/tex]

=[tex]2400 +20 p +\dfrac{72000}{p}+600[/tex]

Let differentiate with respect to p; we have

[tex]\dfrac{dA}{dp}= 20 - \dfrac{72000}{p^3}[/tex]

Also;

[tex]\dfrac{d^2A}{dp^2}= \dfrac{144000}{p^3}[/tex]

For the smallest area [tex]\dfrac{dA}{dp }=0[/tex]

[tex]20 - \dfrac{72000}{p^2}=0[/tex]

[tex]p^2 = \dfrac{72000}{20}[/tex]

p² = 3600

p =√3600

p = 60

Since p = 60 ; replace p = 60 in the expression  q = [tex]\dfrac{2400 \ cm^2}{p}[/tex]   to solve for q;

q = [tex]\dfrac{2400 \ cm^2}{p}[/tex]

q = [tex]\dfrac{2400 \ cm^2}{60}[/tex]

q = 40

Thus; the printed material has the length of 60 cm and the width of 40cm

the length of the poster = p+30 = 60 +30 = 90 cm

the width of the poster = [tex]\dfrac{2400 \ cm^2}{p} + 20[/tex] = [tex]\dfrac{2400 \ cm^2}{60} + 20[/tex]  = 40 + 20 = 60

Hence; the dimension of the poster = 90 cm length and 60 cm  width i.e 90 cm by 60 cm.

Help! Please do a,b,c and d with explanation

Answers

Answer:

  a.  235°

  b. 146.03 km

  c. 105 km

  d. 193 km

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The bearing of E from A is given as 55°. The bearing in the opposite direction, from E to A, is this angle with 180° added:

  bearing of A from E = 55° +180° = 235°

__

b. The internal angle at E is the difference between the external angle at C and the internal angle at A:

  ∠E = 134° -55° = 79°

The law of sines tells you ...

  CE/sin(∠A) = CA/sin(∠E)

  CE = CA(sin(∠A)/sin(∠E)) = (175 km)·sin(55°)/sin(79°) ≈ 146.03 km

  CE ≈ 146 km

__

c. The internal angle at C is the supplement of the external angle, so is ...

  ∠C = 180° -134° = 46°

The distance PE is opposite that angle, and CE is the hypotenuse of the right triangle CPE. The sine trig relation is helpful here:

  Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

  sin(46°) = PE/CE

  PE = CE·sin(46°) = 146.03 km·sin(46°) ≈ 105.05 km

  PE ≈ 105 km

__

d. DE can be found from the law of cosines:

  DE² = DC² +CE² -2·DC·CE·cos(134°)

  DE² = 60² +146.03² -2(60)(146.03)cos(134°) ≈ 37099.43

  DE = √37099.43 ≈ 192.6 . . . km

  DE is about 193 km

An aeroplane X whose average speed is 50°km/hr leaves kano airport at 7.00am and travels for 2 hours on a bearing 050°. It then changes its course and flies on a bearing 1200 to an airstrip A. Another aeroplane Y leaves kano airport at 10.00am and flies on a straight course to the airstrip A. both planes arrives at the airstrip A at 11.30am. calculate the average speed of Y to three significant figures. the direction of flight Y to the nearest degree

Answers

Answer:

(a)123 km/hr

(b)39 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Plane X with an average speed of 50km/hr travels for 2 hours from T (Kano Airport) to point U in the diagram.

Distance = Speed X Time

Therefore: Distance from T to U =50km/hr X 2 hr =100 km

It moves from Point U at 9.00 am and arrives at the airstrip A by 11.30am.

Distance, UA=50km/hr X 2.5 hr =125 km

Using alternate angles in the diagram:

[tex]\angle U=110^\circ[/tex]

(a)First, we calculate the distance traveled, TA by plane Y.

Using Cosine rule

[tex]u^2=t^2+a^2-2ta\cos U\\u^2=100^2+125^2-2(100)(125)\cos 110^\circ\\u^2=34175.50\\u=184.87$ km[/tex]

Plane Y leaves kano airport at 10.00am and arrives at 11.30am

Time taken =1.5 hour

Therefore:

Average Speed of Y

[tex]=184.87 \div 1.5\\=123.25$ km/hr\\\approx 123$ km/hr (correct to three significant figures)[/tex]

b)Flight Direction of Y

Using Law of Sines

[tex]\dfrac{t}{\sin T} =\dfrac{u}{\sin U}\\\dfrac{125}{\sin T} =\dfrac{184.87}{\sin 110}\\123 \times \sin T=125 \times \sin 110\\\sin T=(125 \times \sin 110) \div 184.87\\T=\arcsin [(125 \times \sin 110) \div 184.87]\\T=39^\circ $ (to the nearest degree)[/tex]

The direction of flight Y to the nearest degree is 39 degrees.

Reyna got a score of 7.62; this version has a mean of 7.3 and a standard deviation of 0.8. If the company has only one position to fill and prefers to fill it with the applicant who performed best on the aptitude test, which of the applicants should be offered the job?

Answers

Answer:

Due to the higher z-score, Norma should be offered the job

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score:

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.

In this question:

Whoever has the higher z-score should get the job.

Norma:

Norma got a score of 84.2; this version has a mean of 67.4 and a standard deviation of 14.

This means that [tex]X = 84.2 \mu = 67.4, \sigma = 14[/tex]

So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{84.2 - 67.4}{14}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.2[/tex]

Pierce:

Pierce got a score of 276.8; this version has a mean of 264 and a standard deviation of 16.

This means that [tex]X = 276.8, \mu = 264, \sigma = 16[/tex]

So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{276.8 - 264}{16}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.8[/tex]

Reyna:

Reyna got a score of 7.62; this version has a mean of 7.3 and a standard deviation of 0.8.

This means that [tex]X = 7.62, \mu = 7.3, \sigma = 0.8[/tex]

So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{7.62 - 7.3}{0.8}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.4[/tex]

Due to the higher z-score, Norma should be offered the job

the number of ants per acre in the forest is normally distributed with mean 42000 and standard deviation 12275. let x = number of ants in a randomly selected acre of the forest. Round all answers to 4 decimal places where possible. Find the probability that a randomly selectd acre has between 32647 and 43559 ants.

Answers

Answer:

0.3182 = 32.81% probability that a randomly selected acre has between 32647 and 43559 ants.

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

In this question, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 42000, \sigma = 12275[/tex]

Find the probability that a randomly selectd acre has between 32647 and 43559 ants.

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 43559 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 32647. So

X = 43559:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{43559 - 42000}{12275}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.13[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.13[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.5517.

X = 32647:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{32647 - 42000}{12275}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.76[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.76[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.2236

0.5517 - 0.2236 = 0.3281

0.3182 = 32.81% probability that a randomly selected acre has between 32647 and 43559 ants.

The combined SAT scores for the students at a local high school are normally distributed with a mean of 1527 and a standard deviation of 291. The local college includes a minimum score of 1207 in its admission requirements. What percentage of students from this school earn scores that satisfy the admission requirement? P(X > 1207) =

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the random variable representing the SAT scores for the students at a local high school. Since it is normally distributed and the population mean and population standard deviation are known, we would apply the formula,

z = (x - µ)/σ

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = standard deviation

From the information given,

µ = 1527

σ = 291

the probability to be determined is expressed as P(x > 1207)

P(x > 1207) = 1 - P(x ≤ 1207)

For x < 1208

z = (1207 - 1527)/291 = - 1.1

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.16

P(x > 1207) = 1 - 0.16 = 0.84

Therefore, the percentage of students from this school earn scores that satisfy the admission requirement is

0.84 × 100 = 84%

I would like to purchase 20 products at a cost of $65 per product. What would be my total with 3.5 sales tax

Answers

Answer:

Answer:

The total is: $ 1345.5

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

I would like to purchase 20 products at a cost 65.00 per product.

This means that the cost of 20 products will be:

Also, there is a sales tax of 3.5%

This means that a person has to pay a extra 3.5% on the total cost of the items he purchased.

i.e. he need to pay 3/5% on $ 1300

This means that the amount of tax he need to pay is: 3.5% of 1300

                                                                             =  3.5%×1300

                                                                            = 0.035×1300

                                                                           = $ 45.5.

Hence, the total cost is: $ 1300+$ 45.5

This means that the total cost is: $ 134.5

Suppose this estimate is based on a sample of 80 persons and that the sample standard deviation is $550. a. At 95% confidence, what is the margin of error

Answers

Answer:

$120.52

Margin of error M.E = $120.52

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

x+/-M.E

Where M.E = margin of error

M.E = zr/√n

Given that;

Mean x = $1,873

Standard deviation r = $550

Number of samples n = 80

Confidence interval = 95%

z(at 95% confidence) = 1.96

Substituting the values we have;

M.E = (1.96 × $550/√80) = 120.5240639872

Duke takes a car in for basic service. The service agent says a few extra repairs are needed, so Duke adds the cost of those repairs mentally, rounding to the nearest 10. What is Duke's total estimate for the repairs? The costs are as follows: Wheel alignment: $82 Transmission fluid flush: $157 Cabin air filter: $58 Note: 4 or less rounds down, 5 or more rounds up. For example, 14 becomes 10, while 15 becomes 20.

Answers

Answer:

The total repair cost was around $300 .

Step-by-step explanation:

I wasn't sure when you were saying to round, so here are two options.

(For rounding at the end) :

82+157+58 = 297

Rounds to 300.

(For rounding as he's adding everything up) :

80+160+60= 300.

So either way it's 300!

Hope this helped!

Tori needs to make some house repairs in three years that will cost $9,000. She has some money in an account earning 9% annual interest. How much money needs to be in the account today so she will have enough to pay for the repairs

Answers

Answer:

She needs to have approximately $6950 on that account.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the account has an interest rate of 9% annually, then it's compounded and the earnings can be found by the following expression:

[tex]M = C*(1 + r)^t[/tex]

Where M is the final amount, C is the initial amount, r is the interest rate and t is the time elapsed in years.

She needs the money in 3 years, therefore t = 3. Applying this to the problem we have:

[tex]9000 = C*(1 + 0.09)^3\\9000 = C*(1.09)^3\\C*1.295 = 9000\\C = \frac{9000}{1.295}\\C = 6949.81[/tex]

She needs to have approximately $6950 on that account.

What is the equation of the exponential graph shown?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]100(0.5)^{x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the graph, the y int is at 100

so that is the starting point

Then at 1 it is at 50

[tex]\frac{100}{50}[/tex] is 2 so that means it is reduced by half

Just to make sure, [tex]\frac{50}{25}[/tex] is also /2 so that means it is the slope

Since it is a decay, the slope has to be less than one so you get the reciprecol of 2 to get....

Step-by-step explanation:

Three security cameras were mounted at the corners of a triangles parking lot. Camera 1 was 110 ft from camera 2, which was 137 ft from camera 3. Cameras 1 and 3 were 158 ft apart. Which camera had to cover the greatest angle

Answers

Answer:

Camera 2nd has to cover the maximum angle, i.e. [tex]78.70^\circ[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Please have a look at the triangular park represented as a triangle [tex]\triangle ABC[/tex] with sides

a = 110 ft

b = 158 ft

c = 137 ft

1st camera is located at point C, 2nd camera at point B and 3rd camera at point A respectively.

We can use law of cosines here, to find out the angles [tex]\angle A, \angle B, \angle C[/tex]

As per Law of cosine:

[tex]cos C = \dfrac{a^{2}+b^2-c^2 }{2ab}\\cos B = \dfrac{a^{2}+c^2-b^2 }{2ac}\\cos A = \dfrac{b^{2}+c^2-a^2 }{2bc}[/tex]

Putting the values of a,b and c to find out angles [tex]\angle A, \angle B, \angle C[/tex].

[tex]cos C = \dfrac{110^{2}+158^2-137^2 }{2\times 110 \times 158}\\\Rightarrow cos C = \dfrac{12100+24964-18769 }{24760}\\\Rightarrow cos C =0.526\\\Rightarrow C = 58.24^\circ[/tex]

[tex]cos B = \dfrac{110^{2}+137^2-158^2 }{2\times 110 \times 137}\\\Rightarrow cos B = \dfrac{12100+18769 -24964}{30140}\\\Rightarrow cos B = \dfrac{5905}{30140}\\\Rightarrow cos B =0.196\\\Rightarrow B = 78.70^\circ[/tex]

[tex]cos A = \dfrac{158^{2}+137^2-110^2 }{2\times 158 \times 137}\\\Rightarrow cos A = \dfrac{24964+18769-12100}{43292}\\\Rightarrow cos A = \dfrac{31633}{43292}\\\Rightarrow cos A = 0.731\\\Rightarrow A = 43.05^\circ[/tex]

Camera 2nd has to cover the maximum angle, i.e. [tex]78.70^\circ[/tex].

Which two lines in this excerpt from Tolstoy's The Death of Ivan Ilyich demonstrate that Gerasim is a character foil to Ivan Ilyich? But he had never had the spirit to do it. The awful, terrible act of his dying was, he could see, reduced by those about him to the level of a casual, unpleasant, and almost indecorous incident (as if someone entered a drawing room defusing an unpleasant odour) and this was done by that very decorum which he had served all his life long. He saw that no one felt for him, because no one even wished to grasp his position. Only Gerasim recognized it and pitied him. And so Ivan Ilyich felt at ease only with him. He felt comforted when Gerasim supported his legs (sometimes all night long) and refused to go to bed, saying: "Don't you worry, Ivan Ilyich. I'll get sleep enough later on," or when he suddenly became familiar and exclaimed: "If you weren't sick it would be another matter, but as it is, why should I grudge a little trouble?" Gerasim alone did not lie; everything showed that he alone understood the facts of the case and did not consider it necessary to disguise them, but simply felt sorry for his emaciated and enfeebled master. Once when Ivan Ilyich was sending him away he even said straight out: "We shall all of us die, so why should I grudge a little trouble?"expressing the fact that he did not think his work burdensome, because he was doing it for a dying man and hoped someone would do the same for him when his time came.
