You need to sketch f given the information you have.

f'(x) is approximately a a cubic polynomial which means f will look like a quartic (think W)

f slopes down (negative slope) to x=2 and then slopes down again...this is a horizontal tangent.

f then slopes down to to x=5 where is has a minimum and then slopes up.

Of the 64 people who answered "yes" to a question, 6 were male. Of the 70 people that answered "no" to the question, 8 were male. If one person is selected at random from the group, what is the probability that the person answered "yes" or was male?

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the person answered "yes" or was male is 0.537

Step-by-step explanation:

The union of events is equivalent to the disjunction "or". Given two events A and B, the union of events, denoted by A∪B, is defined as the event formed by all the elements that are in A or B. That is, the event A∪B is verified when one of the two or both occurs.

Considering two events A and B with probabilities P (A) and P (B), respectively, the probability of their union is given by:

P(A∪B)= P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B)

In this case:

A: the person answered "yes" B: the person was male

So, being the probability calculated as the number of favorable cases divided by the total number of possible cases, then in this case it is known that the number of people who answered yes is 64, while the number of people who responded is not 70. Therefore , the total number of people who answered is equal to 64 + 70 = 134. So, the probability of answering yes is:

P(A)=[tex]\frac{64}{134}[/tex]=0.478

On the other hand, you know that out of 64 people who answered yes, the number of being male is 6. And out of 70 people who answered no, the number of being male is 8. So the probability that men answer yes is calculated as:

P (A∩B) =[tex]\frac{6}{134}[/tex]= 0.045

Finally, with the total number of men equal to 6 + 8 = 14, the probability of being male is:

P(B)=[tex]\frac{14}{134}[/tex] = 0.104

Then:

P(A∪B)= P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B)

P(A∪B)= 0.478 + 0.104 - 0.045

Solving:

P(A∪B)= 0.537

The probability that the person answered "yes" or was male is 0.537

1. The mean number of siblings for respondents in a survey is 3.76 with a standard deviation of 3.18. Calculate the Z score associated with 3 siblings. Your answer should be rounded to two decimal places, like 5.43 or 1.30.
2. The mean number of siblings for respondents in a survey is 3.76 with a standard deviation of 3.18. Using the standard normal table, calculate the proportion of respondents who had more than 2 siblings. Your answer should be rounded to two decimal places, like 0.43 or 0.30.

Answers

Answer:

-0.24 ; 0.71

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean number of siblings (m) = 3.76

Standard deviation (s) = 3.18

Z score associated with 3 siblings

x = 3

Using the relation :

Zscore = (x - m) / s

Zscore = (3 - 3.76) / 3.18

Zscore = - 0.76 / 3.18

Zscore = −0.238993

Zscore = - 0.24

2.) proportion of respondents with more than 2 siblings

Using the z probability calculator :

X > 2

Obtain the standardized score :

Zscore = (x - m) / s

Zscore = (2 - 3.76) / 3.18

Zscore = - 1.76 / 3.18

Zscore = −0.5534591

Zscore = - 0.55

Using the z table :

P(Z ≥ - 0.55) = 1 - p(Z ≤ - 0.55) ; p(Z ≤ - 0.55) = 0.2912

1 - p(Z ≤ - 0.55) = 1 - 0.2912 = 0.7088 = 0.71

The price of a TV after a 20% discount is $620, what was the price before the discount?​

Answers

Answer:

The original prince is: $775            

Step-by-step explanation:

As the discount is 20%.

As we know that

100% - 20%  = 80% = 80/100 = 0.8

The price after 20% discount = Discounted price = $620

We have to find the original price before the discount.

using the formula

(Discounted price) = (100 percent - discount percent) x (original price)

          $620            = (100% - 20%) x (original price)

          $620            = (80%) x (original price)

          $620             = (80/100) x (original price)

          $620              = (0.8) x (original price)

so

original price = $620/0.8

                      = $775

Therefore, the original prince is: $775

The total length of wires A,B and C is 445cm. Wire A is 45cm longer then wire B,and wire B is half as long as wire C. How long is wire A?

Answers

Answer:

A = 145cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A+B+C = 445cm  

b = 1/2c

a = b+45  =  1/2c + 45

445 = c + (0.5c) + (0.5c + 45)

445 = 2c + 45

445 - 45 = 2c

400/2 = c

c = 200cm

a = 1/2c + 45 = 1/2*200 + 45 = 100 + 45 = 145cm

The equation of the line is y = –3x.

Answers

Answer:

The relationship is proportional.

The relationship is linear.

The equation of the line is y = –3x.

Step-by-step explanation:

The line in the question passes through origin and (4,-12).

The rate of change of the line is

[tex]m=\dfrac{-12-0}{4-0}\\\Rightarrow m=\dfrac{-12}{4}\\\Rightarrow m=-3[/tex]

The rate of change of the line or slope of the line is -3

Equation of the line is given by

This means that the relationship is linear.

If we take any value of x then there will be only one value of y this means that the relationship is proportional.

given that a=2 and b=3, what is (ab)^2

Answers

Answer:

(ab)² = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in 2 for a and 3 for b:

(2·3)²

Multiply 2 and 3:

Square the number:

36

(ab)² is the same as writing:

(a x b)²

We know that a is 2 and that b is 3, so we substitute these into the expression:

(2 x 3)²

Then because of the Order of Operations we multiply INSIDE the brackets first:

(6)²

And when we square (²) a number we are simply multiplying it by itself:

(6)² = 6 x 6

So our final answer is:

6 x 6 = 36

Daniel bought a package of 12 water bottles for $6. Write an equation that relates the cost, c, of a package of water bottles to the number of bottles, b, in the package?

Answers

Answer:

c = 2b

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the cost of one water bottle by dividing the total cost by the number of water bottles:

12/6

= 2

Then, set up an equation.

2b, where b is the number of bottles, represents the cost of the package of water bottles.

Set this equal to c, the cost, to create the equation.

c = 2b is the equation relating the cost to the number of bottles

Refrigerators in a random sample of 55 refrigerators, the mean repair cost was $150.00 and the standard deviation was $15.50. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the population mean repair cost. Interpret the results.

Answers

Answer:

146.5619<x<153.4381

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the confidence interval is expressed as:

CI =  xbar±(z*s/√n)

xbar is the mean = 150

s is the standard deviation = 15.50

n is the sample size = 55

z is the z score at 90% CI = 1.645

Substitute and get CI

CI = 150±(1.645*15.50/√55)

CI = 150±(1.645*15.50/7.4162)

CI = 150±(1.645*2.09)

CI = 150±(3.4381)

CI = (150-3.4381, 150+3.4381)

CI = (146.5619, 153.4381)

CI = 146.5619<x<153.4381

Hence a 90% confidence interval for the population mean repair cost 146.5619<x<153.4381

The minimum cost is approximately $147 while the maximum cost of the refrigerator is $153

If y varies jointly as x and z and inversely as the square of w, and y = 3 when x = 3, Z = 10, and w = 2, then y = 4 when x = 4, z = 20, and w= 4.

True or False ?

Answers

Answer:

True ; it is true

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that y = 4 when x = 4, z = 20, and w= 4 is not true because the constant of proportionality is not equals to 2 / 5.

What is variation?

Variation describes a simple relationship between two variables.

Therefore, y varies jointly as x and z and inversely as the square of w

y ∝ xz ∝ 1 / w²

Therefore,

y = kxz / w²

where

k = constant of proportionality

Hence,

y = 3

x = 3

z = 10

w = 2

yw² / xz = k

k = 3 × 2² / 3 × 10

k = 12 / 30

k = 6 / 15 = 2 / 5

Therefore, let's test for y = 4 when x = 4, z = 20, and w= 4.

k = 4 × 4²  / 4 × 20

k = 64 / 80

k = 16 / 20 = 4 / 5
