Answer:
The vector equation in terms of v1 and v2 is x₁v₁ +x₂v₂ = [296 2454]
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution
The aim is to write down a vector equation in terms of v1 and v2, when solution gives the number of days each mine should operate in order to produce 296 tons of copper and 2454 kilograms of silver.
Thus,
Suppose that b = [ 296 2454] is the corresponding vector which is representing the total needed output.
Now,
If the company operates mine 1 for x1 days and mine #2 for x2 days
Then,
The total output becomes x₁v₁ +x₂v₂ which is the same output to b = [296 2454]
Hence, x₁ and x₂ should be satisfactory to the needed vector equation x₁v₁ +x₂v₂ = [296 2454]
So, the vector equation becomes x₁v₁ +x₂v₂ = [296 2454]

An ethologist is interested in how long it takes a certain species of water shrew to catch its prey. He only has access to a sample of 100 shrews. On multiple occasions each day he lets a dragonfly loose inside the cage of the shrews and times how long it takes until the shrews catch the dragonfly. After months of research the ethologist concludes 1) that the mean prey catching time was 30 seconds, 2) the standard deviation was 5.5 seconds and 3) that the scores he has collected are normally distributed. What is the percentage of shrews that: a) catch a dragonfly in less than 18 seconds; b) catch a dragonfly in between 22 and 45 seconds; c) take longer than 45 seconds to catch a dragonfly? d) take less than 30 seconds to catch its prey;
Answer:
a) 1.46%.
b) 92.33%.
c) 0.32%.
d) 50%
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 = 30, \sigma = 5.5[/tex]
a) catch a dragonfly in less than 18 seconds;
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 18. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{18 - 30}{5.5}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.18[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.18[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0146
So the percentage of shrews is 1.46%.
b) catch a dragonfly in between 22 and 45 seconds;
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 45 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 22.
X = 45
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{45 - 30}{5.5}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.73[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.73[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9968
X = 22
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{22 - 30}{5.5}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.45[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.45[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0735
0.9968 - 0.0735 = 0.9233
So the answer is 92.33%.
c) take longer than 45 seconds to catch a dragonfly?
From b), when X = 45, Z = 2.73 has a pvalue of 0.9968
1 - 0.9968 = 0.0032
So the answer for this item is 0.32%.
d) take less than 30 seconds to catch its prey;
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 30.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{30 - 30}{5.5}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.5
So the answer for d) is 50%.

Answer:
x = 3.6 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
By the theorem of intersecting secants,
"If two secants are drawn from a point outside the circle, product of the lengths of the secant segment and its external segment are equal."
3(3 + y) = 2(2 + 6 + 3)
9 + 3y = 2 × 11
3y = 22 - 9
3y = 13
y = [tex]\frac{13}{3}[/tex] cm = 4.33 cm
Now we will apply theorem of intersecting chords to determine the value of x.
" When two chords intersect each other in a circle, product of their segments are equal"
[tex]x\times 5=6\times 3[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{18}{5}[/tex]
[tex]x=3.6[/tex] cm
Therefore, x = 3.6 cm and y = 4.33 cm
What is the equation of the line perpendicular to y = 2/3 x +1 that passes through the point (12, – 6)?
Answer:
y= -3/2x+12
Step-by-step explanation:
the slope of perpendicular lines multiplied together would be -1, so the slope of the perpendicular line is -3/2. y=-3/2x+b, so -6=-18+b, so b= 12. the equation of the line is y=-3/2x+12.
Henry, Brian and Colin share some sweets in the ratio 6:4:1. Henry gets 25 more sweets than Colin. How many sweets are there altogether?
Answer:
There are 55 sweets in total.
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of sweets is t.
Henry, Brian and Colin share some sweets in the ratio 6:4:1.
This means that Henry earns [tex]\frac{6}{6+4+1} = \frac{6}{11}[/tex] of the total(t).
Brian earns [tex]\frac{4}{11}[/tex] of the total.
Colin earns [tex]\frac{1}{11}[/tex] of the total
Henry gets 25 more sweets than Colin.
Henry earns [tex]\frac{6t}{11}[/tex]
Colin earns [tex]\frac{t}{11}[/tex]
So
[tex]\frac{6t}{11} = \frac{t}{11} + 25[/tex]
Multiplying everything by 1
[tex]6t = t + 275[/tex]
[tex]5t = 275[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{275}{5}[/tex]
[tex]t = 55[/tex]
There are 55 sweets in total.

A researcher reports that the farther college students are from their parents, the more often they communicate with their parents (either by phone or by e-mail). Is this an example of a positive correlation or a negative correlation?
Answer:
Positive correlation
Step-by-step explanation:
A positive correlation exists between two variables, when both variables tend to move along the same direction. In order words, when one particular variable increases, there is also an increase in the other variable.
The case stated above is an example of positive correlation, because, the farther the students are from their parents, the more often they communicate with them. As distance increases, so does the number of, perhaps, phone calls increases as well.
Answer:
Positive correlation
Step-by-step explanation:
A positive correlation occurs whereby in a relationship between two variables, both variable move in the same direction meaning as one increases, the other also increases.
In this study, an increase in distance enforces an increase in communication with the parents.
Approximately 1.65 million high school students take the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) each year and nearly 80% of the college and universities without open admissions policies use SAT scores in making admission decisions (College Board, March 2009). The current version of the SAT includes three parts: reading comprehension, mathematics, and writing. A perfect combined score for all three parts is 2400. A sample of SAT scores for the combined three-part SAT are as follows:
1665 1275 1650 1590 1475 1490
1525 2135 1560 1880 1680 1560
1355 1280 1150 1420 14409 4016
4510 6014 8517 5512 6013 9017
8015 8519 901 3751 7301 1755
Required:
a. Show a frequency distribution and histogram. Begin with the first class starting at 800 and use a class width of 200.
b. Comment on the shape of the distribution.
c. What other observations can be made about the SAT scores based on the tabular and graphical summaries?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
The sample shows the scores for the combined three-part SAT.
Raw data in first attachment.
a.
To arrange the data in a frequency table using class intervals you have to determine the number of intervals you want to use and calculate their width. In this case, the width is given and so is the lower limit of the first interval, you calculate the successive limits by adding the width. The lower limit of the next interval will be the upper limit of the previous one:
1) 800 + 200= 100
First interval [800; 1000)
2) 1000 + 200
Second interval
[1000; 1200)
And so on until you reach the maximum value of the data set,
[1200; 1400)
[1400; 1600)
[1600; 1800)
[1800; 2000)
[2000; 2200)
Then you have to order the data from least to greatest and count how many observations correspond to each value, this way you'll determine the observed frequency for each interval.
Table and histogram in second attachment.
b.
As you can see in the histogram, this distribution is symmetrical centered in the interval [1400; 1600) and there are no outliers observed.
c.
Values around 1400-1600 are the most common ones while scores around 800-1000 or 2000-2200 are more uncommon, in this sample it seems the probability to obtain a perfect score for the combined three-part SAT is extremely low.
I hope you have a nice day!

In the transmission of digital information, the probability that a bit has high, moderate, and low distortion is 0.02, 0.07, and 0.91, respectively. Suppose that three bits are transmitted and that the amount of distortion of each bit is assumed to be independent. Let and denote the number of bits with high and moderate distortion out of the three, respectively. Determine the following:
A. fxy(x,y).
B. fx(x).
C. E(X).
D. Are X and Y independent?
Answer:
A. (Table Attached)
B. (See Step 3)
C. 0.06 (See Step 4)
D. NOT independent (See Step 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
STEP 1:Name the probabilities:
p₁ = 0.02, p₂ = 0.07, p₃ = 0.91
q₁ = 1-p₁ = 0.98 , q₂ = 1-p₂ = 0.93 , q₃ = 0.09
Let X and Y be the number of bits with high and moderate distortion out of three.
STEP 2:A.
The function will follow multinomial distribution:
[tex]f_{XY}(x,y) = P(X=x, Y=y) = \frac{3!}{x!y!(3-x-y)!} (p_1^x)(p_2^y)(p_3^{3-x-y})[/tex]
Substitute the values and make a table.

STEP 3:
B.
We calculate marginal distribution by:
[tex]P (X=x)=[/tex] ∑ [tex]P(X=x,Y=y)[/tex]
[tex]fx(x)[/tex] can be found by adding all the probabilities in each row for different value of X
For X=0 , ∑P = 0.94157441
For X=1 , ∑P = 0.057624
For X=2 , ∑P = 0.001176
For X=3 , ∑P =0.000008
STEP 4:C.
The mathematic expectation E is the sum of product of each possibility with its probabiity.
[tex]E(X)=[/tex]∑ [tex]xP(X=x)[/tex]
Find E(X):
[tex]E(X)= (0*0.9415744)+(1*0.057624)+(2*0.001176)+(3*0.000008)[/tex]
[tex]E(X)=0.06[/tex]
STEP 5:
Condition probability states:
[tex]P(A|B)=\frac{P(A,B)}{P(B)}[/tex]
It can also be written as:
[tex]f_{Y|X=1}(y)=\frac{f_{XY}(1,y)}{f_x(1)}[/tex]
Where [tex]f_x(1)\\[/tex] = 0.057624
Calculate the quotient:
[tex]Y|_{x=1}[/tex] = 0 , [tex]f_{Y|_X=1[/tex] = 0.862245
[tex]Y|_{x=1}[/tex] = 1 , [tex]f_{Y|_X=1[/tex] = 0.132653
[tex]Y|_{x=1}[/tex] = 2 , [tex]f_{Y|_X=1[/tex] = 0.000510
[tex]Y|_{x=1}[/tex] = 3 , [tex]f_{Y|_X=1[/tex] = 0
Find the dependency:
[tex]f_{XY}(y)=f_X(x)f_Y(y)[/tex]
We found that
[tex]f_{Y|_X=1[/tex] = 0.862245
Calculate [tex]f_Y(1)[/tex] from summing the column from the table
[tex]f_Y(1)=0.17428341+0.007644+0.000084\\f_Y(1)=0.18201141[/tex]

Find the (a) mean, (b) median, (c) mode, and (d) midrange for the data and then (e) answer the given question. Listed below are the jersey numbers of 11 players randomly selected from the roster of a championship sports team. What do the results tell us? 24 72 41 76 15 29 64 93 74 38 99
Answer:
a) 56.82
b) 64
c) there is no mode
d) 57
e) the jersey numbers are nominal data and they do not measure or count anything, so the resulting statistic are meaningless
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing is to organize the data from least to greatest:
15 24 29 38 41 64 72 74 76 93 99
a) the mean would be the average of the data, thus:
m = (15 + 24 + 29 + 38 + 41 + 64 + 72 + 74 + 76 + 93 + 99) / 11
m = 56.82
b) the median is the data of half, when the data is organized, in this case the value of half would be the sixth data that is 64.
c) the mode is the value that is most repeated, therefore as none is repeated there is no mode.
d) the midrange is the average between the minimum value and the maximum value:
mr = (15 + 99) / 2
mr = 57
e) the jersey numbers are nominal data and they do not measure or count anything, so the resulting statistic are meaningless
The probability of teenager owning a game system is .72 and the probability of teenager owning a cell phone is .93.
the probability of a teenager owning both gaming system and cell phone is .68
what is the probability of a teenager owning a gaming system or a cell phone? round to the nearest thousandth
Answer: 0.97
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula : For events A and B
P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)
Given : The probability of teenager owning a game system is .72.
i.e. P(game system) =0.72
The probability of teenager owning a cell phone is .93.
i.e. P(cell phone) = 0.93
The probability of a teenager owning both gaming system and cell phone is .68
i.e. P( game system and cell phone) = 0.68
Now , the probability of a teenager owning a gaming system or a cell phone is given by :_
P(game system or cell phone) = P(game system) +P(cell phone)- P( game system and cell phone)
= 0.72+0.93-0.68
= 0.97
Hence, the probability of a teenager owning a gaming system or a cell phone is 0.97.
A mail carrier can deliver mail to 36 houses in 30 minutes. Mark wants to determine how many houses the carrier can deliver mail to in 7.5 minutes at this rate. He thinks that to find the answer, he should do the following.
1. First divide 36 houses by 30 minutes to find a unit rate of 1.2 houses per minute.
2. Then multiply 1.2 houses per minute by 7.5 minutes to get 9 houses.
Which statement is correct?
-Mark’s method is wrong, because it is impossible to deliver mail to 1.2 houses in a minute. The carrier can only deliver to a whole number of houses.
-Mark’s method is wrong, because it is impossible to deliver mail for 7.5 minutes. The carrier can only deliver mail for a whole number of minutes.
-Mark’s method is correct, because even though it is impossible to deliver mail to 1.2 houses in a minute, 1.2 represents the unit rate of houses per minute.
-Mark’s method is correct, because it is possible to deliver mail for 7.5 minutes; 7.5 represents the unit rate of 7.5 minutes per house.
The correct answer is C. Mark’s method is correct because even though it is impossible to deliver mail to 1.2 houses in a minute, 1.2 represents the unit rate of houses per minute.
Explanation:
To begin Mark should determine the rate of delivery (number of houses the carrier can deliver in 1 minute). This can be found by dividing the houses by the minutes (36 / 30 = 1.2 houses per minute). This means the 1.2 rate found by Mark is correct; also, in this case, it is important to clarify, the carrier will not deliver to 1.2 houses at the same time, but this is the delivery rate or number used to understand the relationship between the number of houses, and the time.
Moreover, you can use this rate, and multiply it by 7.5 and this will show you how many houses the carrier can deliver in this time (7.5 (minutes) x 1.2 (delivery rate) = 9 houses). Thus, the method is correct, and in it, 1.2 represents the unit rate, this is why even when it is not possible to deliver to 1.2 houses all the process is correct.

A system of equations has 1 solution. If 4x - y = 5 is one of the equations, which could be the other equation?
O y=-4x + 5
y = 4x-5
2y = 8x - 10
-2y = -8x - 10
Answer:
[tex]4x -y = 5[/tex]
And if we rewrite this expression we got:
[tex] y= 4x -5[/tex]
If the system have just one solution then we need the slope different and for this reason we can discard the options:
y = 4x-5
-2y = -8x - 10 equivalent to y =4x+5
2y = 8x - 10 equivalent to y = 4x -5
And then the correct answer would be:
y=-4x + 5

For this case we have the following equation given:
[tex]4x -y = 5[/tex]
And if we rewrite this expression we got:
[tex] y= 4x -5[/tex]
If the system have just one solution then we need the slope different and for this reason we can discard the options:
y = 4x-5
-2y = -8x - 10 equivalent to y =4x+5
2y = 8x - 10 equivalent to y = 4x -5

A bottle maker believes that 14% of his bottles are defective. If the bottle maker is accurate, what is the probability that the proportion of defective bottles in a sample of 622 bottles would be less than 11%
Answer:
[tex] z = \frac{0.11-0.14}{0.0139} = -2.156[/tex]
And we can use the normal standard distribution table and we got:
[tex] P(Z<-2.156) =0.0155[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we know the following info given:
[tex] p =0.14[/tex] represent the population proportion
[tex] n = 622[/tex] represent the sample size selected
We want to find the following proportion:
[tex] P(\hat p <0.11)[/tex]
For this case we can use the normal approximation since we have the following conditions:
i) np = 622*0.14 = 87.08>10
ii) n(1-p) = 622*(1-0.14) =534.92>10
The distribution for the sample proportion would be given by:
[tex] \hat p \sim N (p ,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}) [/tex]
The mean is given by:
[tex] \mu_{\hat p}= 0.14[/tex]
And the deviation:
[tex]\sigma_{\hat p}= \sqrt{\frac{0.14*(1-0.14)}{622}}= 0.0139[/tex]
We can use the z score formula given by:
[tex] z=\frac{\hat p -\mu_{\hat p}}{\sigma_{\hat p}}[/tex]
And replacing we got:
[tex] z = \frac{0.11-0.14}{0.0139} = -2.156[/tex]
And we can use the normal standard distribution table and we got:
[tex] P(Z<-2.156) =0.0155[/tex]

Where Ab is the area of base, h is height
Volume of cone = 1/3(Ab)(h)
a) Their formula for finding volume is same. Also, their painting heads are same.
b) Pyramids have a tetragonal base while cones have a polygonal base
2) Pyramids
Volume of cone = (1/3) πr²h
Since Area of a circle = πr²
So
Volume of pyramid = (1/3)(A)(h)
So we can use the formula of a circle in cone's formula

(C) y = 3x
Step-by-step explanation:
Directly proportional relation is one in which the value of x and y gets increases or decreased in same proportion.
example of such relation can be y = kx
where k is the constant of proportionality which depicts by how much value of y will change in response to change of x.
_______________________________________________
now in the option
A and B
y= 9 , y =1/5
value of y is constant and does not depend on other variable. it value will remain same.
for y = x+4
value of y increases with x but it does not increase proportionally.
let see an example for x =1 , y = 1+4 = 5
x =2 , y = 2+4 = 6
(1,5) and (2,6) are not proportionally changing also this equation is not of form y = kx
thus, it is incorrect option.
_______________________________
(C) y = 3x
here equation is form y =kx . in place of k there is 3
let see an example for x =1 , y = 3*1 = 3
x =2 , y = 3*2 = 6
(1,3) and (2,6) are proportionally changing (1/3 = 2/6) also this equation is of form y = kx
thus, it is correct option.
What is five + five
Can someone plz help me solved this problem I need help ASAP plz help me! Will mark you as brainiest!
Answer:
2 & 8
-4 & -4
Step-by-step explanation:
x and y are the numbers, as per question:
x= 4+2y and xy= 16
y(4+2y)= 162y²+4y=16y²+2y - 8= 0y²+2y+1 =9(y+1)²=9y+1=3 ⇒ y= 2 ⇒ x= 4+2*2= 8y+1= -3 ⇒ y= -4 ⇒ x= 4+2*(-4)= -43u - 3 = 15
give me a lecture so i can try to do it in the future please
Answer:
u=6
Step-by-step explanation:
One rule in algebra is what you do to one side, you do it to other side. So if you multiply a number in one side, multiply the same number in other side. Here in this question, you are trying to find the value of the variable u. Variable is called so because the value of it varies depending on different question. Here u is going to be a constant number which when multipled by 3 and then subtracted by 3 equals 15.
So first step is we try to get constants on one side. So we add 3 on both sides to get rid of 3 on left.
3u - 3 + 3= 15+3
3u= 18
Now we divide by 3 on both sides to get u by itself.
3u/3 = 18/3
u= 6
You are going to sell your Samsung so you can get the new iPhone. You purchased your Samsung 2 years ago for $200. It's
value decreases at a rate of 2% each month. To the nearest dollar, how much is your Samsung worth now?
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{\ 123 \ dollars\ }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
its value decreases at a rate of 2% each month
in 2 years there are 12*2=24 months
so the Samsung worth [tex]200(0.98)^{24}\\[/tex]
it gives 123 rounded to the nearest dollar
Answer:
$123
Step-by-step explanation:
initial price= $200
value decrease rate= 2% = 0.98 times a month
time = 2 years
current value= $200*0.98²⁴= $123
