Gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 15 ft3/min, and its coarseness is such that it forms a pile in the shape of a cone whose base diameter and height are always equal. How fast is the height of the pile increasing when the pile is 12 ft high? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

0.13 ft/min

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=15ft^3/min[/tex]

We have to find the increasing rate of change of height of pile  when the pile is 12 ft high.

Let d be the diameter of pile

Height of pile=h

d=h

Radius of pile,r=[tex]\frac{d}{2}=\frac{h}{2}[/tex]

Volume of pile=[tex]\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h=\frac{1}{12}\pi h^3[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{1}{4}\pi h^2\frac{dh}{dt}[/tex]

h=12 ft

Substitute the values

[tex]15=\frac{1}{4}\pi(12)^2\frac{dh}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{15\times 4}{\pi(12)^2}[/tex]

Find the probability expressions: (Round your answers to 2 decimal places.)

a. P(X=50)P(X=50).
b. P(X≤75)P(X≤75).
c. P(X>50)P(X>50).
d. P(X<100)P(X<100).

Answers

Answer:

a. P(X=50)= 0.36

b. P(X≤75) =  0.9

c. P(X>50)=  0.48

d. P(X<100) = 0.9

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data is

x                      25        50       75        100          Total

P(x)                0.16       0.36    0.38    0.10          1.00

Where X is the variable and P(X) = probabililty of that variable.

From the above

a. P(X=50)= 0.36

We add the probabilities of the variable below and equal to 75

b. P(X≤75) = 0.16+ 0.36+ 0.38= 0.9

We find the probability of the variable greater than 50 and add it.

c. P(X>50)= 0.38+0.10=  0.48

It can be calculated in two ways. One is to subtract the probability of 100 from total probability of 1. And the other is to add the probabilities of all the variables less than 100 . Both would give the same answer.

d. P(X<100)= 1- P(X=100)= 1-0.1= 0.9

A physical fitness association is including the mile run in its secondary-school fitness test. The time for this event for boys in secondary school is known to possess a normal distribution with a mean of 460 seconds and a standard deviation of 40 seconds. Find the probability that a randomly selected boy in secondary school can run the mile in less than 368 seconds.

Answers

Answer:

The probability that a randomly selected boy in secondary school can run the mile in less than 368 seconds is P(X<368)=0.011.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a normal distribution with mean 460 and standard deviation 40 to describe the time for the mile run in its secondary-school fitness test.

We have to calculate the probabiltiy that a randomly selected boy in secondary school can run the mile in less than 368 seconds.

To calculate this, we have to calculate the z-score for X=368:

[tex]z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{368-460}{40}=\dfrac{-92}{40}=-2.3[/tex]

Then, we can calculate the probability:

[tex]P(X<368)=P(z<-2.3)=0.011[/tex]

Tacoma's population in 2000 was about 200 thousand, and has been growing by about 8% each year. If this continues, what will Tacoma's population be in 2013?

Answers

Answer: The population will be 408,000 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

So in 2000 there were 200,000 people and it started to grow 8% every year so up to 2013.

so find 8% of 200,000 and then multiply it by the  the number of years.

8% * 200,000 =  16,000

Find the difference between the years.

2013 - 2000 = 13 years

13 * 16000 = 208000  This is the amount of new people from 2000 to 2013 so add it to the original population.

208,000 + 200,000 = 408,000

A typical classroom is a rectangle with dimensions of 20 feet wide by 25 feet long, and the area needed for each person in the room is approximately 28 square feet, what fraction of the total area in a classroom is needed for each person? What is the largest number of people that would fit in an average sized classroom while practicing good social distancing?

Answers

Answer:

A fraction of 0.056 of the classroom is needed for each student.

A typical classroom can acomodate up to 17 persons while practicing good social distancing.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a classroom that is a recatngle with dimensions of 20 feet wide by 25 feet long.

The total area of the classroom is:

[tex]A=w\cdot l=20\cdot25=500[/tex]

As the area of the classromm is 500 square feet and we need 28 square feet for each student, the fraction that is needed for each student is:

[tex]f=\dfrac{A_{\text{student}}}{A_{\text{classroom}}}=\dfrac{28}{500}=0.056[/tex]

A fraction of 0.056 of the classroom is needed for each student.

The largest number of students that would fit in an average sized classroom while practicing good social distancing can be calculated dividing the area of the classroom by the area needed for each student. This is equal to the inverse of the fraction calculated previously:

[tex]n=\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{0.056}\approx17.86[/tex]

A typical classroom can acomodate up to 17 persons while practicing good social distancing.

what value of x makes the equation true ? 9.68x + 21.6 -6.23x = 2.3x + 17​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

9.68x+21.6-6.23x=2.3x+17

lets move it to the left

9.68x+21.6-6.23x-(2.3x+17)=0

Then, We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

3.45x-(2.3x+17)+21.6=0

We get rid of parentheses

3.45x-2.3x-17+21.6=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

1.15x+4.6=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

1.15x=-4.6

x=-4.6/1.15

x=-4

x= -8 makes the equation true.

What is Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides. LHS = RHS is a common mathematical formula.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given:

9.68x + 21.6 -6.23x = 2.3x + 17​

Now, solving for x

9.68 x - 6.23x - 2.3x = 17 - 21.6

1.15x= -4.6

x= -4.6 / 1.15

x= -8

Hence, x= -8 makes the equation true.

A high school student took two college entrance exams, scoring 1070 on the SAT and 25 on the ACT. Suppose that SAT scores have a mean of 950 and a standard deviation of 155 while the ACT scores have a mean of 22 and a standard deviation of 4. Assuming the performance on both tests follows a normal distribution, determine which test the student did better on.

Answers

Answer:

Due to the higher z-score, he did better on the SAT.

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.

Determine which test the student did better on.

He did better on whichever test he had the higher z-score.

SAT:

Scored 1070, so [tex]X = 1070[/tex]

SAT scores have a mean of 950 and a standard deviation of 155. This means that [tex]\mu = 950, \sigma = 155[/tex].

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{1070 - 950}{155}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.77[/tex]

ACT:

Scored 25, so [tex]X = 25[/tex]

ACT scores have a mean of 22 and a standard deviation of 4. This means that [tex]\mu = 22, \sigma = 4[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{25 - 22}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.75[/tex]

Due to the higher z-score, he did better on the SAT.

A team of researchers published an article on the study of how vehicles are dispatched based on an airport-based taxi service.

(c) If two taxis are dispatched together, what is the probability that both of them will be gone for more than 25 minutes? (d) what is the likelihood of at least of one of the taxis returning within 25?

Answers

Answer:

a. The mean would be 0.067

The standard deviation would be 0.285

b. Would be of 1-e∧-375

c. The probability that both of them will be gone for more than 25 minutes is 1-e∧-187.5

d. The likelihood of at least of one of the taxis returning within 25 is 1-e∧-375

Step-by-step explanation:

a. According to the given data the mean and the standard deviation would be as follows:

mean=1/β=1/15=0.0666=0.067

standard deviation=√1/15=√0.067=0.285

b. To calculate How likely is it for a particular trip to take more than 25 minutes we would calculate the following:

p(x>25)=1-p(x≤25)

since f(x)=p(x≤x)=1-e∧-βx

p(x>25)=1-p(x≤25)=1-e∧-15x25=1-e∧-375

c. p(x>25/2)=1-p(x≤25/2)=1-e∧-15x25/2=1-e∧-187.5

A standard cube has six numbers on it (1,2,3,4,5 and 6).

P( NOT 6) =[tex]\dfrac{\text{Numbers that are not 6}}{\text{Total numbers}}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{5}{6}=0.8333[/tex]

We know that when the probability of any event lies between 0.5 and 1then the event is said to be likely to happen.

Since , P(not 6)=0.8333 which lies between 0 and 0.5.

That means, it is likely to happen.

Note :

When probability of having A = 0 , we call A as uncertain event.

When probability of having A = 1 , we call A as certain event.

When probability of having A = 0.5 , we call A as equally likely event.

When probability of having A lies between 0 and 0.5 , we call A as unlikely event.

When probability of having A lies between 0.5 and 1 , we call A as likely event.
