Helpppppppp. Jason inherited a piece of land from his great-uncle. Owners in the area claim that there is a 45% chance that the land has oil. Jason decides to test the land for oil. He buys a kit that claims to have an 80% accuracy rate of indicating oil in the soil. What is the probability that the land has no oil and the test shows that it has oil? A. 0.09 B. 0.11 C. 0.36 D. 0.44

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Jason Inherit a land with a 45% chance of having oil.

Step-by-step explanation:

 The probability of the land having oil is = P ( O) = 45 /100

The probability of the land having oil is= Q(O ) =55/100

The machine has an accuracy of 80%. This suggests that 8 out of 10 times the machine will give a wrong reading.

The probability of the correct reading is=  P(M)=80/100

The probability of the incorrect reading is=Q(M)=20/100

The case when the machine predicts there is no oil and there is indeed oil can be calculated:Probability=Probability of oil present  ×  probability of the incorrect reading

Probability=P(O) x Q(M)

Probability=45/100 x 20/100

Probability=9/100

The probability of the test predicting no oil in land and the land has oil is  0.09 or 9%

Answer:

x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

\left(5^3\right)^2\cdot 5^{x+4}=5^7

Apply\:exponent\:rule

x+10=7

x=-3

Answer:

x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

(5^3)^2 · 5^(x+4) = 5^7

First of all, we simplify (5^3)^2. When you have an exponent in parentheses that is raised to another exponent that is outside the parentheses, you multiply the exponents.

(5^3)^2 = 5^(3·2) = 5^6

We cannot simplify 5^(x+4) or 5^7 any further, so our equation is now:

5^6 · 5^(x+4) = 5^7

We can divide 5^6 from both sides to get:

5^(x+4) = (5^7)/(5^6)

When exponents of like terms are divided we can subtract the exponents.

5^(x+4) = 5^(7-6)

5^(x+4) = 5^1

This last part is a bit trickier. When exponents of like terms are multiplied we add the exponents. We can use this knowledge to determine that 5^(x+4) is made up of 5^x · 5^4. Now we have:

5^x · 5^4 = 5^1

We can divide both sides by 5^4.

5^x = (5^1)/(5^4)

We simplify the right side by the same way we did earlier when we divided exponents:

5^x = 5^(1-4)

5^x = 5^-3

We can see that x = -3, but using logarithms, we can finish isolating x. Taking the log base 5 of both sides, we get:

x = log₅(5^-3)

If you don't already know, log₅(5^-3) means what exponent do you raise 5 to in order to get 5^-3. After stating it like this, we can clearly see that log₅(5^-3) equals -3.

So x = -3

Another way we could have solved the logarithm is by using one of the laws of exponents. In this case, we would use logₐ(x^y) = y(logₐm). This would give us:

x = -3(log₅5)

x = -3(1)

x = -3

Either way works.

Using the sine rule:

These are two fractions that are equal so we can cross multiply to get:

40 x sin(x) = 28 x sin(90)

Rearranging:

Our first clue is that Baker is a girl, as this person was referred to as a she. Now she claims to have been placed higher if she didn't eat that blueberry pie, which means she is not first place. Our second clue is that Patrick ranked higher than Davis but lower than Natalie. Patrick and Davis are first and last names, which means they do not go together. And of course Davis is lower than Natalie. Coaster's father was proud of her daughter's ability to eat so much pie, so Coaster must be a girl's last name. There are only two girls, Analee and Natalie, so Coaster should be one of their names. This girl Coaster must have ranked first place. Analee ranked lower than Adam. If this is true, it should be that Natalie is associated with Coaster, considering she is the only girl that could have ranked first place! Lastly, Conner didn't rank last place;

[tex]Baker - she, Baker - Not 1st\\Patrick \neq Davis, Patrick > Davis, Patrick < Natalie,\\Natalie Coaster - 1st Place,\\Analee Baker[/tex]

Colleen is knitting a scarf. For every 45 pieces of blue yarn she uses, she uses 18 pieces of red yard. What equation can be used to represent the proportional relationship between the amount of blue yarn, b, and red yard, r, that Colleen uses when knitting a scarf?

Answers

Answer:

The equation that can be used to represent the proportional relationship between the amount of blue yarn, b, and red yarn, r, that Colleen uses when knitting a scarf is:

b = 2.5 r

or

b = 5r/2

Step-by-step explanation:

In the exercise are given the variables that we must use in the equation: b and r, where b is the amount of blue yarn and r is the amount of the red yarn, now it's just missing the proportion that must be used in the equation, to identify this you only must divide the biggest amount (45) by the smallest amount (18), how I show below:

Proportion = 45/18 = 2.5 or 5/2

Having this, you can make the equation taking into account the proportion:

b = 2.5 r

This equation marks that by each piece of blue yarn, are needed 2.5 pieces of red yarn, we can prove the equation replacing the r-value by 18:

b = 2.5 r b = 2.5 (18) b = 45

How you can see, replacing the r-value by 18, the value given for red yarn, we obtain the value given for the blue yarn: 45.

Answer:

b = 2.5 r

or

b = 5r/2

Which correlation coefficient could represent the relationship in the scatterplot? A) 0.34 B) -.098 C) -1.43 D) 0.99

Answers

Answer:

B) -0.98

Step-by-step explanation:

Correlation coefficient is usually denoted with numbers ranging from 1 to -1. Automatically, this eliminates option C) as our possible answer, since -1.43 is outside the range.

The trend shown in the scatter plot describes a negative relationship because, as the values in the Y-axis decreases, the values at the X-axis increases. The possible correlation coefficient we are likely to get is one that is negative. This eliminates option A and option and option D is our possible correlation coefficient for the scatter plot given since both values are positive.

Option B) -0.98, best represents the correlation coefficient of the given scatter plot. Since the points on the scatter plot seem closely aligned on a straight line, a negative value if -0.98 is mostly the possible one to get.

What is the area of the garden in Plan B? (Type the numeric answer only).

Answers

Answer:

241.5 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the area of the deck. A = LW.  L = 20, W = 16.

20 x 16 = 320.

Now that we have found the area of the deck, let's find the area of the garden. A = [tex]r^{2} \pi[/tex].   r = 5.  

A = (pi)5^2

A = 25(pi)       pi =  3.14

A = 78.5

Since the deck will not cover the garden, we must subtract the area of the garden from the total area of the deck.

320 - 78.5 = 241.5

Write the equation of the line passing through the points (10, 50) and (25, 20).

Answers

To write the equation, we need the slope and y-intercept.

Remember that slope is the same as rate of change

or the change in y over the change in x.

Start by setting up a table with x and y values

which I have provided below.

Filling out our table, our given points are (10, 50) and (25, 20).

In the y column, we can see that the value of y

goes from 50 to 20 so it decreases by -30.

This means that the change in y is -30.

In the x column, we can see that the value of x goes from 10 to 25

so it increases by 15 which means that the change in x is 15.

So the rate of change is -30/15 which simplifies to -2.

To find b, we can use any ordered pair

in our table as the values for x and y.

Let's use the first ordered pair.

So we have 50 = -2(10) + b.

Solving from here, we get 50 = -20 + b.

Now add 20 to both sides to get 70 = b.

So if our slope is -2 and our y-intercept is 70,

we can substitute these values into our formula.

This gives us y = -2x + 70.
