The complete question is;
An eight-sided die, which may or may not be a fair die, has four colors on it; you have been tossing the die for an hour and have recorded the color rolled for each toss. What is the probability you will roll a green on your next toss of the die? Express your answer as a simplified fraction or a decimal rounded to four decimal places.
orange brown green yellow
46 23 32 19
Answer:
probability of rolling green on the next toss of the die = 4/15
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given how many times each of the colours appeared for each toss and they are;
Orange - 46
Brown - 23
Green - 32
Yellow - 19
Thus,
Total number of tosses = 46 + 23 + 32 + 19 = 120 rolls
Thus, probability of rolling green on the next toss of die will be = number of times green appeared/total number of rolls = 32/120 = 4/15

If a boat uses 25 gallons of gas to go 73 miles, how many miles
can the boat travel on 75 gallons of gas?
24 mi
438 mi
219 mi
239 mi
Answer:
For this problem we can use the following proportional rule:
[tex] \frac{73 mi}{25 gal}= \frac{x}{75 gal}[/tex]
Where x represent the number of miles that we can travel with 75 gallons. For this case we can use this proportional rule since by definition [tex] D=vt[/tex]. If we solve for x we got:
[tex] x =75 gal (\frac{73 mi}{25 gal}) =219mi[/tex]
And the best answer would be:
219 mi

A nutritionist wants to determine how much time nationally people spend eating and drinking. Suppose for a random sample of 1082 people age 15 or older, the mean amount of time spent eating or drinking per day is 1.53 hours with a standard deviation of 0.71 hour.
a. Determine and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the mean amount of time Americans age 15 or older spend eating and drinking each day
b. The nutritionist is 95% confident that the amount of time spent eating or drinking per day for any individual is between_________and_________hours.
c. There is a 95% probability that the mean amount of time spent eating or drinking per day is between and hours.
d. The nutritionist is 95% confident that the mean amount of time spent eating or drinking per day is between_______and_____________
Answer:
a) The 95% confidence interval for the mean amount of time Americans age 15 or older spend eating and drinking each day is (1.49, 1.57).
d) The nutritionist is 95% confident that the mean amount of time spent eating or drinking per day for any individual is between 1.49 and 1.57 hours.
(c and b can not be concluded from the confidence interval)
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to calculate a 95% confidence interval for the mean.
The population standard deviation is not known, so we have to estimate it from the sample standard deviation and use a t-students distribution to calculate the critical value.
The sample mean is M=1.53.
The sample size is N=1082.
When σ is not known, s divided by the square root of N is used as an estimate of σM:
[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{N}}=\dfrac{0.71}{\sqrt{1082}}=\dfrac{0.71}{32.89}=0.022[/tex]
The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:
[tex]df=n-1=1082-1=1081[/tex]
The t-value for a 95% confidence interval and 1081 degrees of freedom is t=1.962.
The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:
[tex]MOE=t\cdot s_M=1.962 \cdot 0.022=0.042[/tex]
Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:
[tex]LL=M-t \cdot s_M = 1.53-0.042=1.49\\\\UL=M+t \cdot s_M = 1.53+0.042=1.57[/tex][tex]LL=M-t \cdot s_M = 1.53-0.042=1.49\\\\UL=M+t \cdot s_M = 1.53+0.042=1.57[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval for the mean is (1.49, 1.57).

At the 5% significance level, does there appear to be a difference in last year’s mean VMT for midwestern and southern households? Use both p-value and critical value approach. Assume population variance to be equal

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
The objective is to compare the VMT of mid western households and southwestern households. For this two independent random samples of households from both areas and their VMT were recorded:
Be
X₁: VMT of a mid western household
Midwest
16.2 , 14.6 , 11.2 , 24.4 , 9.4 12.9 , 18.6 , 16.6 , 20.3 ,15.1 , 17.3 , 10.8 , 16.6 , 20.9 , 18.3
n₁= 15
∑X₁= 243.20
∑X₁²= 4175.98
X[bar]₁= 16.21
S₁²= 16.64
S₁= 4.08
X₂: VMT of a southwestern household
22.2, 19.2 , 9.3 , 24.6 ,20.2 , 15.8, 18.0 , 12.2 , 20.1 , 16.0 , 17.5 , 18.2 , 22.8 , 11.5
n₂= 14
∑X₂= 247.60
∑X₂²= 4633.24
X[bar]₂= 17.69
S₂²= 19.56
S₂= 4.42
The parameters of study are the population means, if the claim is that the VMT of households is different in both areas, then you'd expect the population means to be different too.
The hypotheses are:
H₀: μ₁ = μ₂
H₁: μ₁ ≠ μ₂
α: 0.05
Assuming both populations are normal and since both population variances are equal the test to apply is an independent samples t test pooled variance:
[tex]t= \frac{(X[bar]_1-X[bar]2)-(Mu_1-Mu_2)}{Sa*\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2} } } ~~t_{n_1+n_2-2}[/tex]
[tex]Sa^2= \frac{(n_1-1)S_1^2+(n_2-1)S_2^2}{n_1+n_2-2} = \frac{14*16.67+13*19.56}{15+14-2}= \frac{487.66}{27} = 18.06[/tex]
Sa= 4.249= 4.25
[tex]t_{H_0}= \frac{(16.21-17.69)-0}{4.25*\sqrt{\frac{1}{15} +\frac{1}{14} } }= -0.937= -0.94[/tex]
Critical value approach:
This test is two-tailed, this means that the rejection region is divided in two tails:
[tex]t_{n_1+n_2-2; \alpha /2}= t_{27; 0.025}= -2.052[/tex]
[tex]t_{n_1+n_2-2; 1-\alpha /2}= t_{27; 0.975}= 2.052[/tex]
The decision rule is:
If [tex]t_{H_0}[/tex] ≤ -2.052 or if [tex]t_{H_0}[/tex] ≥ 2.052, reject the null hypothesis.
If -2.052 < [tex]t_{H_0}[/tex] < 2.052, do not reject the null hypothesis.
The calculated value is within the "no rejection region" so the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis.
Using the p-value approach:
The p-value is the probability of obtaining a value as extreme as the calculated value of the statistic under the null hypothesis ([tex]t_{H_0}[/tex]). Just as the significance level, the p-value is two tailed, you can calculate it as:
P(t₂₇ ≤ -0.93) + P(t₂₇ ≥ 0.93)= P(t₂₇ ≤ -0.93) + (1 - P(t₂₇ < 0.93)= 0.1796 + ( 1 - 0.8204)= 0.1796*2= 0.3592
p-value= 0.3592
The p-value is always compared to the significance level, the decision rule for this approach is:
If the p-value ≤ α, reject the null hypothesis.
If the p-value > α, do not reject the null hypothesis.
The p-value is greater than α, so the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis.
At a 5% significance level, there is no significant evidence to reject the null hypothesis. You can conclude that the population means of the VMT for households of the Midwest South ers households.
I hope this mhelps!

Taking the LCM , we get
A = x ( x + 7 ) - 4 ( x + 3 ) / ( x + 3 ) ( x - 5 ) ( x + 7 )
A = x² + 7x - 4x + 12 / ( x + 3 ) ( x - 5 ) ( x + 7 )
A = ( x² - 3x - 12 ) / ( x + 3 ) ( x - 5 ) ( x + 7 )
Therefore , the value of A is ( x² - 3x - 12 ) / ( x + 3 ) ( x - 5 ) ( x + 7 )
Hence , the equation is A = ( x² - 3x - 12 ) / ( x + 3 ) ( x - 5 ) ( x + 7 )

Engineers must consider the breadths of male heads when designing helmets. The company researchers have determined that the population of potential clientele have head breadths that are Normally distributed with a mean of 6.5 inches and a standard deviation of 1.2 inches. According to the 68-95-99.7 rule, we expect 95% of head breadths to be:___________.
Answer:
"According to the 68-95-99.7 rule, we expect 95% [95.45%] of head breadths to be" between 4.1 inches and 8.9 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the 68-95-99.7 rule, approximately:
68% (more precisely, 68.27%) of the data from the normal distribution lie one standard deviation, [tex] \\ \sigma[/tex], above and below the population mean, [tex] \\ \mu[/tex].95% (more precisely, 95.45%) of the data lie two standard deviations, [tex] \\ 2\sigma[/tex], above and below the population mean, [tex] \\ \mu[/tex], and finally,99.7 (or more precisely, 99.73%) of the data lie three standard deviations, [tex] \\ 3\sigma[/tex], above and below the population mean, [tex] \\ \mu[/tex].Then, if we have--from the question--that:
The random variable is head breadths.This variable follows a normal distribution.The population's mean for this distribution is [tex] \\ \mu = 6.5[/tex] inches.The population's standard deviation is [tex] \\ \sigma =1.2[/tex] inches.We have to remember that two parameters characterize a normal distribution: the population's mean and the population's standard deviation. So, mathematically, the distribution we have from question is [tex] \\ N(6.5, 1.2)[/tex].
For 95% (95.45%) of the head breadths, we expect that they are two standard deviations below and above the population's mean.
For solving this, we need to use the cumulative standard normal distribution (in case we need to find probabilities) and also use standardized values or z-scores:
[tex] \\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex] [1]
A z-score "tells us" the distance from the mean in standard deviations units. If the z-score is positive, it is above the mean. If it is negative, it is below the mean.
Since 95% (95.45%) of the head breadths are two standard deviations (above and below the mean), we have (using [1]):
[tex] \\ \pm2 = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
But we already know that [tex] \\ \mu=6.5[/tex] inches and [tex] \\ \sigma=1.2[/tex] inches.
Thus (without using units) for values above the population's mean:
[tex] \\ 2 = \frac{x - 6.5}{1.2}[/tex]
Solving the equation for x, we multiply by 1.2 at each side of [1] :
[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = \frac{x - 6.5}{1.2} * 1.2[/tex]
[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = (x - 6.5)\frac{1.2}{1.2}[/tex]
[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = (x - 6.5)\frac{1.2}{1.2}[/tex]
[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = (x - 6.5)*1[/tex]
[tex] \\ 2 * 1.2 = x - 6.5[/tex]
Adding 6.5 at each side of the previous equation:
[tex] \\ (2 * 1.2) + 6.5 = x - 6.5 + 6.5[/tex]
[tex] \\ (2 * 1.2) + 6.5 = x + 0[/tex]
[tex] \\ (2 * 1.2) + 6.5 = x[/tex]
Therefore, the raw value, x, in the distribution that is two standard deviations above the population's mean is:
[tex] \\ x = (2 * 1.2) + 6.5[/tex]
[tex] \\ x = 2.4 + 6.5[/tex]
[tex] \\ x = 8.9[/tex] inches.
For two standard deviations below the mean, we proceed in the same way:
[tex] \\ -2 = \frac{x - 6.5}{1.2}[/tex]
[tex] \\ -2*1.2 = x - 6.5[/tex]
[tex] \\ (-2*1.2) + 6.5 = x[/tex]
[tex] \\ x = (-2*1.2) + 6.5[/tex]
[tex] \\ x = -2.4 + 6.5[/tex]
[tex] \\ x = 4.1[/tex] inches
Therefore, "according to the 68-95-99.7 rule, we expect 95% [95.45%] of head breadths to be" between 4.1 inches and 8.9 inches.
The graph below shows these values, and the shaded area represents 95% of the data, or, to be more precise, 95.45% (0.954499).

What equation can be used to calculate the measure of angle ? Describe, in words, the
process you would use to find
Answer:
44°
Step-by-step explanation:
A pair of angles formed from the intersection of two lines opposite to each other at the point of intersection (vertex) is called vertically opposite angles. These vertically opposite angles are congruent to each other (that means they are equal).
Since opposite angles are equal, the equation needed to calculate w is given as:
80° = 36° + w
w = 80° - 36°
w = 44°
a 680g patient comes in with diarrhea. the doctor orders anti-diarrhea medication at a dosage of 15 mcg/kg TID x 3 days. rhye medication concentration 50mcg/ml. What is the patients dose in MCG? What is the total volume of medication you will send home?
Answer:
dose in MCG = 10.2 mcg
Total volume to be sent home = 1.836 ml (1836μl)
Step-by-step explanation:
weight of patient = 680g
dosage in mcg of medication = 15mcg/kg
This means that
for every 1kg weight, 15mcg is given,
since 1kg = 1000g, we can also say that for every 1000g weigh, 15mcg is given.
1000g = 15mcg
1g = 15/1000 mcg = 0.015 mcg
∴ 680g = 0.015 × 680 = 10.2 mcg
Dosage in MCG = 10.2 mcg
Next, we are also told ever ml volume of the drug contains 50 mcg weight of the drug (50mcg/ml). This can also be written as:
50mcg = 1 ml
1 mcg = 1/50 ml = 0.02 ml
∴ 10.2 mcg = 10.2 × 0.02 = 0.204 ml
since the medication is to be taken TID (three times daily) for 3 days, the total number of times the drug is to be taken = 9 times.
therefore, the total volume required = 0.204 × 9 = 1.836 ml (1836 μl)

The amount of time, in minutes, that a woman must wait for a cab is uniformly distributed between zero and 12 minutes, inclusive. What is the probability that a person waits fewer than 11 minutes
Answer:
[tex] P(X\leq x) =\frac{x-a}{b-a}, a \leq x \leq b[/tex]
And using this formula we have this:
[tex] P(X<11) = \frac{11-0}{12-0}= 0.917[/tex]
Then we can conclude that the probability that that a person waits fewer than 11 minutes is approximately 0.917
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X the random variable of interest that a woman must wait for a cab"the amount of time in minutes " and we know that the distribution for this random variable is given by:
[tex] X \sim Unif (a=0, b =12)[/tex]
And we want to find the following probability:
[tex] P(X<11)[/tex]
And for this case we can use the cumulative distribution function given by:
[tex] P(X\leq x) =\frac{x-a}{b-a}, a \leq x \leq b[/tex]
And using this formula we have this:
[tex] P(X<11) = \frac{11-0}{12-0}= 0.917[/tex]
Then we can conclude that the probability that that a person waits fewer than 11 minutes is approximately 0.917

The question is incomplete without the answer choice. Let's consider the following:
A line has a slope of -4/5. Which ordered pairs could be points on a line that is perpendicular to this line? select two options
a) -2,0 and 2,5
b) -4,5 and 4,-5
c) -3,4 and 2,0
d) 1,-1 and 6,-5
e) 2,-1 and 10,9
Step-by-step explanation:
The ordered pairs that could be points on a line that is perpendicular to this line would have same slope as that of the line.
Let's check out the slope of the options.
The line has slope = -4/5
Slope = m = (y subscript 2 -y subscript 1)/(x subscript 2 - x subscript 1)
The coordinates is in the form of (x,y)
Find attached the workings.
a) -2,0 and 2,5
m = 5/4
b) -4,5 and 4,-5
m = -5/4
c) -3,4 and 2,0
m = -4/5
d) 1,-1 and 6,-5
m = -4/5
e) 2,-1 and 10,9
m = 5/4
Two lines are perpendicular if (m subscript 1) × (m subscript 2) = -1
In other words, the slopes
of the two lines must be negative reciprocals of each other.
If 1st slope = -4/5
For the lines to be perpendicular, the slope of every other line = 5/4
2nd slope = 5/4
The ordered pairs that are points on the line perpendicular to the line:
(a) -2,0 and 2,5 and (b) 2,-1 and 10,9

In a randomly selected sample of 500 Phoenix residents, 445 supported mandatory sick leave for food handlers. Legislators want to be very confident that voters will support this issue before drafting a bill. What is the 99% confidence interval for the percentage of Phoenix residents who support mandatory sick leave for food handlers?
Answer:
The 99% confidence interval for the percentage of Phoenix residents who support mandatory sick leave for food handlers is between 85.40% and 92.60%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence interval for the proportion:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
In which
z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
For this problem, we have that:
[tex]n = 500, \pi = \frac{445}{500} = 0.89[/tex]
99% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.575[/tex].
The lower limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.89 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.89*0.11}{500}} = 0.8540[/tex]
The upper limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.89 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.89*0.11}{500}} = 0.9260[/tex]
For the percentage:
Multiply the proportion by 100.
0.8540*100 = 85.40%
0.9260*100 = 92.60%
The 99% confidence interval for the percentage of Phoenix residents who support mandatory sick leave for food handlers is between 85.40% and 92.60%.
Suppose cattle in a large herd have a mean weight of 3181lbs and a standard deviation of 119lbs. What is the probability that the mean weight of the sample of cows would differ from the population mean by greater than 11lbs if 49 cows are sampled at random from the herd
Answer:
51.56% probability that the mean weight of the sample of cows would differ from the population mean by greater than 11lbs if 49 cows are sampled at random from the herd
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.
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 = 3181, \sigma = 119, n = 49, s = \frac{119}{\sqrt{49}} = 17[/tex]
What is the probability that the mean weight of the sample of cows would differ from the population mean by greater than 11lbs if 49 cows are sampled at random from the herd
Lower than 3181 - 11 = 3170 lbs or greater than 3181 + 11 = 3192 lbs. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, these probabilities are equal. So i will find one of them, and multiply by 2.
Probability of mean weight lower than 3170 lbs:
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 3170. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{3170 - 3181}{17}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.65[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.65[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.2578
2*0.2578 = 0.5156
51.56% probability that the mean weight of the sample of cows would differ from the population mean by greater than 11lbs if 49 cows are sampled at random from the herd
True or False: As the value of cos(x) approaches 1 and the value of sin(x) approaches 0, the value of tan(x) approaches infinity
Answer: False
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x)
if cos(x) tends to 1, and sin (x) tends to 0 (this happens aronund the point x = 0)
then we have:
Tan(x) = 0/1 = 0
Then the statement is false, as cos(x) approaches 1 and sin(x) approaches 0, tan(x) also approaches 0.
Find the measure of angle b
Answer: The measure of angle B is 31 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
180 -149 = 31
Answer:
31 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
We can see that 149 degrees and b are on a line. If they are next to each other they are called adjacent angles. There is a rule that adjacent angles add up to 180 degrees. So we subtract 149 from 180 and we get 31 degrees for angle b.
Hope this helps! :)

If the reciprocal of a number is multiplied by 1 less than the original number, the results exceed 1/2 the reciprocal of the original number by 5/8. Find the number.
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's try this a different way than perhaps the usual way. Let r represent the reciprocal of the number.
r(1/r -1) -1/2r = 5/8
1 -r -1/2r = 5/8 . . . . . . eliminate parentheses
-3/2r = -3/8 . . . . . . . . collect terms, subtract 1
(-3/2)/(-3/8) = 1/r = 4 . . . . . divide by (-3/8)r because we actually want 1/r
The number is 4.
_____
Check
The reciprocal of the number is 1/4.
1 less than the original number is 4 -1 = 3. The product of these is 3/4.
__
Half the reciprocal of the original number is (1/2)(1/4) = 1/8.
Then the difference between these is ...
3/4 -1/8 = (6 -1)/8 = 5/8 . . . . as required.
A store has 8 puppies, including 3 poodles, 3 terries, and 2 retrievers. If Rebecca and Jas, in that order, each select one puppy at random without replacement, find the probability that Jas Selects a retriever, given that Rebecca selects a poodle.
Answer:
2/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Rebecca is garunteed to pick a poodle, there are 7 puppies left. There are 2 retrievers so the probability is 2/7
Answer:2/7

Answer:
Option 2
Step-by-step explanation:
So you know that you have to START with 16 gallons, so you can eliminate options 3 and 4.
Then calculate how long you can drive on 16 gallons. 75 * 4 = 300
It's option 2
Answer:
Option 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope will have to be negative since the amount of gas decreases as the miles traveled increased. If the car travels 75 miles on 4 gallons of gas it travels 75 * 4 = 300 miles on 16 gallons of gas, meaning (300, 0) is a point on the line. The only line that satisfies this is Option 2.
