Answer:
1.504×10⁶ ft·lb
Step-by-step explanation:
We understand the top of the oil in the tank is 12 ft below ground level, and the bottom of the tank is 8+18=26 ft below ground level. Then the average depth of the oil is (12+26)/2 = 19 ft below ground level.
The height of the oil in the tank is 26-12=14 ft, so the volume of it is ...
V = πr²h = π(6 ft)²(14 ft) = 504π ft³ ≈ 1583.36 ft³
__
So, the work required to raise that volume of oil to the surface is ...
(1538.36 ft³)(50 lb/ft³)(19 ft) = 1.504×10⁶ ft·lb
g A psychic was tested for extrasensory perception (ESP). The psychic was presented with cards face down and asked to determine if each of the cards was one of four symbols: a star, cross, circle, or square. Let p represent the probability that the psychic correctly identified the symbols on the cards in a random trial. How large a sample n would you need to estimate p with margin of error 0.01 and 95% confidence?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
The objective is to test ESP, for this, a psychic was presented with cards face down and asked to determine if each of the cards was one of four symbols: a star, cross, circle, square.
Be X: number of times the psychic identifies the symbols on the cards correctly is a size n sample.
p the probability that the psychic identified the symbol on the cards correctly
You have to calculate the sample size n to estimate the proportion with a confidence level of 95% and a margin of error of d=0.01
The CI for the population proportion is constructed "sample proportion" ± "margin of error" Symbolically:
p' ± [tex]Z_{1-\alpha /2} * (\sqrt{\frac{p'(1-p')}{n} } )[/tex]
Where [tex]d= Z_{1-\alpha /2} * (\sqrt{\frac{p'(1-p')}{n} } )[/tex] is the margin of error. As you can see, the formula contains the sample proportion (it is normally symbolized p-hat, in this explanation I'll continue to symbolize it p'), you have to do the following consideration:
Every time the psychic has to identify a card he can make two choices:
"Success" he identifies the card correctly
"Failure" he does not identify the card correctly
If we assume that each symbol has the same probability of being chosen at random P(star)=P(cross)=P(circle)=P(square)= 1/4= 0.25
Let's say, for example, that the card has the star symbol.
The probability of identifying it correctly will be P(success)= P(star)= 1/4= 0.25
And the probability of not identifying it correctly will be P(failure)= P(cross) + P(circle) + P(square)= 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4= 3/4= 0.75
So for this experiment, we'll assume the "worst case scenario" and use p'= 1/4 as the estimated probability of the psychic identifying the symbol on the card correctly.
The value of Z will be [tex]Z_{1-\alpha /2}= Z_{0.975}= 1.96[/tex]
Now using the formula you have to clear the sample size:
[tex]d= Z_{1-\alpha /2} * (\sqrt{\frac{p'(1-p')}{n} } )[/tex]
[tex]\frac{d}{Z_{1-\alpha /2}} = \sqrt{\frac{p'(1-p')}{n} }[/tex]
[tex](\frac{d}{Z_{1-\alpha /2}})^2 =\frac{p'(1-p')}{n}[/tex]
[tex]n*(\frac{d}{Z_{1-\alpha /2}})^2 = p'(1-p')[/tex]
[tex]n = p'(1-p')*(\frac{Z_{1-\alpha /2}}{d})^2[/tex]
[tex]n = (0.25*0.75)*(\frac{1.96}{0.01})^2= 7203[/tex]
To estimate p with a margin of error of 0.01 and a 95% confidence level you have to take a sample of 7203 cards.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
The sample size should be 6157
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the margin of error (e) = ± 0.01 and the confidence (C) = 95% = 0.95.
Let us assume that the guess p = 0.25 as the value of p.
α = 1 - C = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05
[tex]\frac{\alpha }{2} =\frac{0.05}{2}=0.025[/tex]
The Z score of α/2 is the same as the z score of 0.475 (0.5 - 0.025) which is 1.96. Therefore [tex]Z_\frac{\alpha }{2}=Z_{0.025}=1.96[/tex]
To determine the sample size n, we use the formula:
[tex]Z_{0.025}*\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} }\leq e\\Substituting:\\1.96*\sqrt{\frac{0.2(1-0.2)}{n} } \leq 0.01\\\sqrt{\frac{0.2(0.8)}{n} }\leq \frac{1}{196}\\\sqrt{0.16} *196 \leq \sqrt{n}\\78.4\leq \sqrt{n}\\ 6146.56\leq n\\n=6157[/tex]
To solve VX +VX-5 = 5 for x, begin with which of these steps?
Answer:
x = 5/v
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
2 v x - 5 = 5

A research company desires to know the mean consumption of meat per week among people over age 27. A sample of 1179 people over age 27 was drawn and the mean meat consumption was 1.5 pounds. Assume that the population standard deviation is known to be 1.2 pounds. Construct the 99% confidence interval for the mean consumption of meat among people over age 27. Round your answers to one decimal place.
Answer:
The 99% confidence interval for the mean consumption of meat among people over age 27 is between 1.4 pounds and 1.6 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:
[tex]\alpha = \frac{1-0.99}{2} = 0.005[/tex]
Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex].
So it is z with a pvalue of [tex]1-0.005 = 0.995[/tex], so [tex]z = 2.575[/tex]
Now, find the margin of error M as such
[tex]M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
[tex]M = 2.575*\frac{1.2}{\sqrt{1179}} = 0.1[/tex]
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 1.5 - 0.1 = 1.4 pounds
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 1.5 + 0.1 = 1.6 pounds
The 99% confidence interval for the mean consumption of meat among people over age 27 is between 1.4 pounds and 1.6 pounds.

It is thought that prehistoric Indians did not take their best tools, pottery, and household items when they visited higher elevations for their summer camps. It is hypothesized that archaeological sites tend to lose their cultural identity and specific cultural affiliation as the elevation of the site increases. Let x be the elevation (in thousands of feet) of an archaeological site in the southwestern United States. Let y be the percentage of unidentified artifacts (no specific cultural affiliation) at a given elevation. The following data were obtained for a collection of archaeological sites in New Mexico. x = 5.22 5.69 6.25 6.75 7.25 y 17 12 33 37 62What percentage of the variation in y can be explained by the corresponding variation in x and the least-squares line? a. 95.7% b. 0.7% c. 8.4% d. 91.6% e. 4.3%
Answer:
(B) 0.7%
Step-by-step explanation:
X = Land Elevation (in ,000 feet)
Y = Unidentified Artifacts (in %)
The hypothetical theory says that:
The higher the elevation, the higher the percentage of unidentified artifacts in the location.
To find the percentage of variation in Y that can be explained by variations in X, we find the slope of the graph of X on Y.
Transforming X to thousand feets, we have 5220, 5690, 6250, 6750, 7250. This is in the attachment, plotted against 17, 12, 33, 37 and 62 respectively.
Further calculations, along with the graph, are in the attachment below. The answer therein is (B) 0.7%

The web publisher www.exploreiceland.is (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. provides information on traveling to Iceland. Access to the website is free but revenues are generated by selling ads that are posted on the website. In the following month, the website has committed to displaying ads to 650,000 viewers, i.e., 650,000 impressions. Based on data from previous months the traffic to the website is estimated to be normally distributed with a mean of 850,000 viewers and a standard deviation of 150,000.
How many impressions should the web publisher have taken on, to be able to guarantee a 95% service level?
Answer:
1096750 impressions
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Mean = 850,000
Standard deviation = 150,000
If we assume that X should be the numbers of impressions created;
Then ;
[tex]X \approx N (\mu , \sigma^2)[/tex]
Now ; representing x as the value for the number of impression needed ; Then ;
[tex]P(X>x) = 0.95[/tex]
[tex]P(\dfrac{X- \mu}{\sigma} > \dfrac{x -850000}{150000}) = 0.95[/tex]
[tex]P(Z> \dfrac{ x -850000}{150000}) = 0.95[/tex]
From normal tables:
[tex]P(Z >1.645) = 0.95[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{x - 850000}{150000} =1.645[/tex]
(x- 850000) = 1.645(150000)
x - 850000 = 246750
x = 246750 + 850000
x = 1096750 impressions

Show all work to solve the equation for x. If a solution is extraneous, be sure to identify it. Square root of the quantity x + 6 end quantity - 4 = x.
Answer:
x = 2 is the solution of the given equation
Step-by-step explanation:
Step(i):-
Given equation
[tex]\sqrt{x+6-4} = x[/tex]
squaring on both sides , we get
[tex](\sqrt{x+2})^{2} = x^{2}[/tex]
⇒ x + 2 = x²
⇒x² - x -2 =0
Step(ii):-
Given x² - x -2 =0
⇒ x² - 2x + x - 2 =0
⇒ x ( x-2) + 1(x - 2) =0
⇒ (x + 1) ( x-2) =0
⇒ x = -1 and x =2
x = 2 is the solution of the given equation
Verification:-
[tex]\sqrt{x+6-4} = x[/tex]
Put x= 2
[tex]\sqrt{2+6-4} = 2[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{4} = 2[/tex]
2 = 2

Jamie needs the following items from the hardware store a drill bit that cost 4.99 nails that caused 0.46 and sandpaper that cost 0.89 how much money was spent if the sales tax rate is 6%
Answer: $5.96
Step-by-step explanation:
4.99 + 0.46 + 0.89 is what she paid, not with tax. That equals 6.34.
Applying 6% means we calculate 6% of 6.34 and then subtract it from 6.34. (Or, we can also calculate 100-6%=94% of 6.34). Either way, the answer is 5.9596, or rounded, 5.96.

The population P of a culture of Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria is given by P = −1718t2 + 82,000t + 10,000, where t is the time in hours since the culture was started. Determine the time(s) at which the population was 600,000. Round to the nearest hour.
Answer:
Rounding to the nearest hour, the times at which the population was 600,000 was at 9 hours and at 39 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Determine the time(s) at which the population was 600,000.
This is t for which P(t) = 600000. To do this, we solve a quadratic equation.
Solving a quadratic equation:
Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:
[tex]ax^{2} + bx + c, a\neq0[/tex].
This polynomial has roots [tex]x_{1}, x_{2}[/tex] such that [tex]ax^{2} + bx + c = a(x - x_{1})*(x - x_{2})[/tex], given by the following formulas:
[tex]x_{1} = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}[/tex]
[tex]x_{2} = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}[/tex]
[tex]\bigtriangleup = b^{2} - 4ac[/tex]
In this question:
[tex]P(t) = -1718t^{2} + 82000t + 10000[/tex]
We have to find t for which P(t) = 600000. Then
[tex]600000 = -1718t^{2} + 82000t + 10000[/tex]
[tex]-1718t^{2} + 82000t - 590000 = 0[/tex]
So [tex]a = -1718, b = 82000, c = -590000[/tex]
Then
[tex]\bigtriangleup = 82000^{2} - 4*(-1718)*(-590000) = 2669520000[/tex]
[tex]t_{1} = \frac{-82000 + \sqrt{2669520000}}{2*(-1718)} = 8.8[/tex]
[tex]t_{2} = \frac{-82000 - \sqrt{2669520000}}{2*(-1718)} = 38.9[/tex]
Rounding to the nearest hour, the times at which the population was 600,000 was at 9 hours and at 39 hours.
A gun mass of 5 kg fired a bullet of mass 10 g with the velocity of 360 km/h. What
is gun’s velocity of pushing behind?
answer fast please
Answer:
The recoil velocity of the gun is [tex]0.72\,\,\frac{km}{h}[/tex] and is pointing in opposite direction to the velocity of the bullet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use conservation of linear momentum, which states that the momentum of the bullet (product of the bullet's mass times its speed) should equal in absolute value the momentum of the recoiling gun (its mass times its recoil velocity).
We also write the mass of the bullet in the same units as the mass of the gun (for example kilograms). Mass of the bullet = 0.010 kg
In mathematical terms, we have:
[tex]5\, kg * v= 0.01 \,kg\,* 360\,\frac{km}{h} \\v=\frac{0.01\,*360}{5} \,\,\frac{km}{h}\\v=0.72\,\,\frac{km}{h}[/tex]

The following is a Markov (migration) matrix for three locations
[1/5 1/5 2/5
2/5 2/5 1/5
2/5 2/5 2/5]
(a) Initially, there are 130 individuals in location 1, 300 in location 2, and 70 in location 3. How many are in each location after two time periods?
(b) The total number of individuals in the migration process is 500. After a long time, how many are in each location?
Answer:
(a) [tex]\mathbf{P_2 = \left[\begin{array}{c}140 \\ 160 \\ 200 \end{array}\right]}[/tex]
(b) After an infinite period of time; we will get back to a result similar to after the two time period which will be [tex]= \left[\begin{array}{c}140 \\ 160 \\ 200 \end{array}\right]}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The Markov Matrix can be interpret as :
[tex]M = \left[\begin{array}{ccc} \dfrac{1}{5} & \dfrac{2}{5} &\dfrac{1}{5} \\ \\ \dfrac{2}{5}&\dfrac{2}{5}&\dfrac{1}{5}\\ \\ \dfrac{2}{5}& \dfrac{2}{5}& \dfrac{2}{5} \end{array}\right][/tex]
From (a) ; we see that the initial population are as follows: 130 individuals in location 1, 300 in location 2, and 70 in location 3.
Le P represent the Population; So ; [tex]P = \left[\begin{array}{c}130 \\ 300 \\ 70 \end{array}\right][/tex]
The objective is to find How many are in each location after two time periods;
So, after two time period ; we have the population [tex]P_2 = [M]^2 [P][/tex]
where;
[tex][M]^ 2 = \left[\begin{array}{ccc} \dfrac{1}{5} & \dfrac{2}{5} &\dfrac{1}{5} \\ \\ \dfrac{2}{5}&\dfrac{2}{5}&\dfrac{1}{5}\\ \\ \dfrac{2}{5}& \dfrac{2}{5}& \dfrac{2}{5} \end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{ccc} \dfrac{1}{5} & \dfrac{2}{5} &\dfrac{1}{5} \\ \\ \dfrac{2}{5}&\dfrac{2}{5}&\dfrac{1}{5}\\ \\ \dfrac{2}{5}& \dfrac{2}{5}& \dfrac{2}{5} \end{array}\right][/tex]
[tex][M]^ 2 = \dfrac{1}{25} \left[\begin{array}{ccc} 1+2+4 & 1+2+4 &1+2+4 \\ \\ 2+2+4&2+2+4&2+2+4\\ \\ 2+4+4&2+4+4& 2+4+4 \end{array}\right][/tex]
[tex][M]^ 2 = \dfrac{1}{25} \left[\begin{array}{ccc}7&7&7 \\ \\ 8 &8&8\\ \\10&10& 10 \end{array}\right][/tex]
Now; Over to after two time period ; when the population [tex]P_2 = [M]^2 [P][/tex]
[tex]P_2 = \dfrac{1}{25} \left[\begin{array}{ccc}7&7&7 \\ \\ 8 &8&8\\ \\10&10& 10 \end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{c}130 \\ 300 \\ 70 \end{array}\right][/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{P_2 = \left[\begin{array}{c}140 \\ 160 \\ 200 \end{array}\right]}[/tex]
(b) The total number of individuals in the migration process is 500. After a long time, how many are in each location?
After a long time; that is referring to an infinite time (n)
So; [tex]P_n = [M]^n [P][/tex]
where ;
[tex][M]^n \ can \ be \ [M]^2 , [M]^3 , [M]^4 .... \infty[/tex]
; if we determine the respective values of [tex][M]^2 , [M]^3 , [M]^4 .... \infty[/tex] we will always result to the value for [tex][M]^n[/tex]; Now if [tex][M]^n[/tex] is said to be a positive integer; then :
After an infinite period of time; we will get back to a result similar to after the two time period which will be [tex]= \left[\begin{array}{c}140 \\ 160 \\ 200 \end{array}\right]}[/tex]

In a sample of real estate ads, 62% of homes for sale have garages, 19% have swimming pools, and 15% have both features. What is the probability that a home for sale has a pool, a garage or both? State your answer as a decimal, not as a percent.
Answer:
66%
Step-by-step explanation:
15% of homes have both features.
The percentage of homes that have a pool and no garage is:
Pool only = 19% - 15% = 4%
The percentage of homes that have a garage and no pool is:
Garage only = 62% - 15% = 47%
Therefore, the percentage of homes that have a pool, a garage or both is:
[tex]P = 4\%+47\%+15\%\\P=66\%[/tex]

Dora likes to explore. Recently, she explored southeast Australia where she found some very large trees known as Eucalyptus regnans or Mountain Ash. She wondered if they were taller, on average, than the coastal Douglas Firs of her native state of Oregon in the United States, which have an average height of 250 feet in old growth areas. Dora measured the heights of 15 Mountain Ash trees in southeast Australia and found an average height of these trees of 293 feet. Suppose s 25 feet. Assume the heights of the 15 trees in Dora's sample are representative of the heights of all Mountain Ash trees in southeast Australia. The t-statistic for this problem is 6.661. Based on this t-statistic, which of the following is true? Choose the correct answer below.
A. With a p-value of 0.999, there is sufficient evidence to accept the null hypothesis as true.
B. With a p-value less than 0.0001, there is not sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative as true. y
C. With a p-value less than 0.0001, there is sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative as true.
D. With a p-value less than 0.0001, there is not sufficient evidence to accept the null hypothesis as true. 0 E. With a p-value of 0.999, there is not sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative as true.
Answer:
C. With a p-value less than 0.0001, there is sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative as true.
Step-by-step explanation:
She performed an hypothesis test with the sample of size n=15 that she takes. The t-statistic has a value of 6.661.
The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:
[tex]df=n-1=15-1=14[/tex]
The P-value for a statistic t=6.661 and 14 degrees of freedom is:
[tex]\text{P-value}=P(t>6.661)=0.00001[/tex]
With these P-value we know that the effect is significant and the null hypothesis is rejected. There is enough evidence to support the claim that the mean height of Mountain Ash trees is greater than the coastal Douglas Firs.

estimate the average number of miles she runs in each week. For a random sample
of 20 weeks, the mean is
x
= 17.5 miles with standard deviation s = 3.8 miles. Find
a 99% confidence interval for the population mean number of weekly miles Isaac runs.
(a) 15.01 to 19.99 miles (b) 15.07 to 19.93 miles
(c) 15.34 to 19.66 miles (d) 15.31 to 19.69 miles
(e) 15.08 to 19.92 miles
Answer: (b) 15.07 to 19.93 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence interval is written in the form,
(Sample mean - margin of error, sample mean + margin of error)
The sample mean, x is the point estimate for the population mean.
Margin of error = z × s/√n
Where
s = sample standard deviation = 3.8
n = number of samples = 20
From the information given, the population standard deviation is unknown and the sample size is small, hence, we would use the t distribution to find the z score
In order to use the t distribution, we would determine the degree of freedom, df for the sample.
df = n - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19
Since confidence level = 99% = 0.99, α = 1 - CL = 1 – 0.99 = 0.01
α/2 = 0.02/2 = 0.005
the area to the right of z0.005 is 0.025 and the area to the left of z0.025 is 1 - 0.005 = 0.995
Looking at the t distribution table,
z = 2.861
Margin of error = 2.861 × 3.8/√20
= 2.43
the lower limit of this confidence interval is
17.5 - 2.43 = 15.07 miles
the upper limit of this confidence interval is
17.5 + 2.43 = 19.93 miles
