What is Number System?

A number system is defined as the representation of numbers by using digits or other symbols in a consistent manner.

The given sentences are

(A) Tylers puppy gained 5 pounds.

This we can take as a positive number. Because here the value is increasing. whenever we use gained means it is positive.

Tylers puppy lost 5 pounds is the negative number.

(b) The aquarium leaked two pounds of water

This we can take as a Negative number. Because here the value is decreased. whenever we use leaked means it is negative.

The aquarium added with two pounds of water is a positive.

(c) Andrew received a gift of $10.

This we can take as a positive number. Because here the value is increasing. whenever we use received means it is positive.

Andrew gifted a gift of $10.

This we can take as a Negative number. Because here the value is decreased. whenever we use gifted means it is negative.

(d) Kiran gave a gift of $10

This we can take as a Negative number. Because here the value is decreased. whenever we use gave means it is negative.

Kiran received a gift of $10 is positive.

(e) A climber descended 550 feet.

This we can take as a Negative number. Because here the value is decreased. whenever we use descended means it is negative.

Hence positive, Negative , Positive, Negative, Negative,.

Use the distributive property to simplify 3 + 5c(2 + 6c) completely.​

Answers

Answer:

Distributive property says that:

(A + B)*C = A*C + B*C

Now let's try to use it in our expression:

3 + 5*c*(2 + 6*c)

Here we can take the two terms inside the parentheses as A and B, and the term that multiplies them as C, then distributing we get:

3 + (5*c)*2 + (5*c)*(6*c)

Now remember that the multiplications are associative and commutative, then we can write this as:

3 + (2*5)*c + (5*6)*(c*c)

3 + 10*c + 30*c^2

And we can't simplify it anymore.

6. A cylindrical oatmeal canister has a diameter of 4 inches and a hight of 10 inches. The manufac-
turing company wants to package the oatmeal in square containers to cut back on wasted storage
space. If the new carton has a square base with 4 inch sides, what is the minimum height it must have,
to the nearest % inch, to hold the same volume of oatmeal? Use 3.14 for the value of T.
a. 7 3/4 inches
b. 8 inches
c. 8 1/4 inches
d. 8 1/2 inches
e. 8 3/4 inches

Answers

The minimum height the square containers should have is 8 inches.

What should be the minimum height the square containers ?

The first step is to determine the volume of the cylindrical oatmeal canister.

Volume = 1/3πr²h

Where:

π = 3.14

r = radius 4/2 = 2

3.14 x 2² x 10 = 125.6

Now, determine the minimum height of the square box.

Height = volume of the cannister / (area of the base)

125.6 / (4 x 4) = 7.85 = 8 inches

b. What appear to be the semicircles of OL?
c. What appear to be the major arcs of OL that contain point K?

Answers

Answer:

a. IH and JK

b. IK and HJ

c. HK

Step-by-step explanation:

IH and JK are the minor arcs because the other arcs (IJ and HK) are major arcs. They (IH and JK) are minor arcs because they are acute angle and the other arcs are Obtuse.

IK and HJ are semicircles because they are two points that is forming a line between the circle. two points that are connected, is already a semicircle.

HK is a major arc because it's central angle is obtuse.

Tom works at an aquarium shop cleaning reef tanks. His job is to drain the tank. How much water is initally in
the tank before he starts to drain it?
Time (minutes)
Amount of Water
1
150
3
100
6
25

Answers

Answer is 175

_________

There are 175 cubic unit initially in the tank

How to determine the initial amount of water?

The table of values is given as:

Time (minutes)     Amount of Water

1                              150

3                             100

6                             25

Calculate the slope (m) of the table using:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

This gives

m = (100 - 150)/(3 -1)

Evaluate

m = -25

This means that as the time increases by 1, the amount of the water reduces by 25 cubic unit

When x = 1, y = 150

So, we have:

x = 1 - 1 when y = 150 - (-25)

This gives

x = 0 when y = 175

Hence, there are 175 cubic unit initially in the tank

7 x - 9 + 11 x - 9 = 180

Step-by-step explanation:

For the equation: 7 x - 9 + 11 x - 9 = 180

Value of X is 11

7x - 9 + 11x - 9 = 180

combine values

18x - 18 = 180

18x = 198

18x/18 = 198/18

x = 11

Angle Measures is

7 (11) - 9 = 77-9 = 68 degrees

11 (11) - 9 = 112 degrees

Assume that the weight of cereal in a "12.6 ounce box" is N(µ,0.42). The Food and Drug Association (FDA) allows only a small percentage of boxes to contain less than 12.6 ounces. You collect a random sample of n = 35 boxes and find that the sample mean is 12.8. Test the null hypothesis H0: µ = 13 against the alternative hypothesis HA: µ < 13 at level of significance α = 0.01

Answers

Answer:

We reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis, that is, that the mean is less than 13 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is:

[tex]H_{0}: \mu = 13[/tex]

The alternate hypotesis is:

[tex]H_{a}: \mu < 13[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

13 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 13[/tex]

N(µ,0.42)

This means that the standard deviation is 0.42, that is, [tex]\sigma = 0.42[/tex]

You collect a random sample of n = 35 boxes and find that the sample mean is 12.8.

This means that [tex]n = 35, X = 12.8[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{12.8 - 13}{\frac{0.42}{\sqrt{35}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -2.82[/tex]

Pvalue of the test:

The pvalue of the test is the pvalue of z = -2.82.

Looking at the z table, z = -2.82 has a pvalue of 0.0024

0.0024 < 0.01, which means that we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis, that is, that the mean is less than 13 ounces.

For patients who have been given a diabetes test, blood-glucose readings are approximately normally distributed with mean 127 mg/dl and a standard deviation 10 mg/dl. Suppose that a sample of 4 patients will be selected and the sample mean blood-glucose level will be computed. Enter answers rounded to three decimal places.
According to the empirical rule, in 95 percent of samples the SAMPLE MEAN blood-glucose level will be between
the lower-bound of [BLANK] and the upper-bound of [BLANK]

Answers

Answer:

Between the lower-bound of 117 mg/dl and the upper bound of 137 mg/dl.

Step-by-step explanation:

Empirical Rule

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

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].

In this question:

Mean of 127, standard deviation of 10.

For the sample mean:

By the Central Limit Theorem, mean is 127, while the standard deviation is [tex]s = \frac{10}{\sqrt{4}} = 5[/tex]

According to the empirical rule, in 95 percent of samples the SAMPLE MEAN blood-glucose level will be between?

By the Empirical Rule, within 2 standard deviations of the mean. So

127 - 2*5 = 117 mg/dl

127 + 2*5 = 137 mg/dl.

Between the lower-bound of 117 mg/dl and the upper bound of 137 mg/dl.

A. Which function is growing more rapidly?
B. Between which X-values does the table indicate that the functions graphs have crossed?
C. Will the functions graphs ever intersect again? Can you prove this?
1)

Answers

Answer:

A) The first function (the quadratic one) is growing more rapidly.

B) Between x=0 and x=1.

C) We can assume that they don't intersect again.

Step-by-step explanation:

A)

The first function (the quadratic one) is growing more rapidly. We can see this because the difference between its y values is so much greater than the difference between the y values for the exponential function.

B)

Between x=0 and x=1. When functions intersect, their y and x values are equal. The y-values are equal at some point over x=0 and x=1 because they both cross over the same range (y=1 and y=2)

C)

We can assume that they don't intersect again because the y-values for the exponential equation will never reach the corresponding values for the quadratic equation; it simply isn't growing rapidly enough.
