SHOW YOUR WORK

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

A solution of 60% fertilizer is to be mixed with a solution of 21% fertilizer to form 234 liters of a 43% solution.

To find:

The quantity of the 60% solution in the mixture.

Solution:

Let x be the quantity of the 60% solution and y be the quantity of the 21% solution.

Quantity of mixture is 234. So,

[tex]x+y=234[/tex]

[tex]x=234-y[/tex]                  ...(i)

The mixture has 43% fertilizer. So,

[tex]\dfrac{60}{100}x+\dfrac{21}{100}y=\dfrac{43}{100}\times 234[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 100.

[tex]60x+21y=10062[/tex]            ...(ii)

Using (i) and (ii), we get

[tex]60(234-y)+21y=10062[/tex]

[tex]14040-60y+21y=10062[/tex]

[tex]-39y=10062-14040[/tex]

[tex]-39y=-3978[/tex]

Divide both sides by -39.

[tex]\dfrac{-39y}{-39}=\dfrac{-3978}{-39}[/tex]

[tex]y=102[/tex]

Putting this value in (i), we get

[tex]x=234-102[/tex]

[tex]x=132[/tex]

Therefore, 132 liters of the 60% solution must be used.

Jane is saving to buy a cell phone. She is given a $100 gift to start and saves $35 a month from her allowance. So after one month, Jane has saved $135. Does it make sense to represent the relationship between the amount saved and the number of months with one constant rate? Why or why not? Explain your answer.

Answers

Jane is given a $100 gift to start and saves $35 a month from her allowance.

   After 1 month, Jane has saved

   After 2 months, Jane has saved

   After three months, Jane has saved

   and so on

In general, after x months Jane has saved

This means that it makes sense to represent the relationship between the amount saved and the number of months with one constant rate (in this case the constant rate is 35). It makes sense because the amount of money increases by $35 each month. Since the amount of increase is constant, we get constant rate. Also the initial amount is known ($100), so there is a possibility to write the equation of linear function representing this situation.

2. What amount of money must Kurt Blixen invest at 4.75% to have it earn $10,000 in 90 days?

Answers

Kurt Blixen must invest $85,2296.94.

Given the following data;

Interest rate = 4.75%Simple interest = $10,000Time = 90 days

To find how much money Kurt Blixen must invest;

Mathematically, simple interest is given by the formula;

[tex]S.I = \frac{PRT}{100}[/tex]

Where:

S.I is the simple interest.P is the principal amount.R is the interest rate.T is the time measured in years.

First of all, we would convert the time in days to years.

Conversion:

365 days = 1 year

90 days = x year

Cross-multiplying, we have;

[tex]365 * x = 90\\\\x = \frac{90}{365}[/tex]

x = 0.247 year

Making P the subject of formula;

[tex]P = \frac{S.I(100)}{RT}[/tex]

Substituting the values into the formula, we have;

[tex]P = \frac{10000(100)}{4.75*0.247}\\\\P = \frac{1000000}{1.1733}[/tex]

P = $85,2296.94

Therefore, Kurt Blixen must invest $85,2296.94.

Suppose a professional baseball player hit 55 home runs his first season, 58 his second,
and 69 his third. How many home runs would he need to hit in the current season so that
his average for the 4 years is no less than 59?

Answers

Answer:

About 54

Step-by-step explanation:

To work backwards from average, you need to multiply the average by the total number of cases, which is 4, since there are 3 current cases/seasons and you want the 4th.

59 * 4 =  236

You then subtract the total home runs that you know of from 236.

236 - 55 - 58 - 69 = 54

To find average, you are adding to the total and then dividing by the number of groups, which is essentially mean (mean is basically the average).

Determine whether the following relationship is a linear inequality or not

1. Y < 3

2. x ≥ 6

3. x² > -3

4. x -3 > 1/2

5. xy + 5 ≤ 7​

Answers

Answer:

What is a linear inequality ? A linear inequality has the same condition as a linear equality, but instead of the equal sign, we have for example this one ≤ wish means less than or equal to.

But what are the condition of a linear equality ? There are many ways of writing linear equations but they usually have constants (like "2" or "c") and must have simple variables (like "x" or "y") BUT the variables (x and y) on a linear equation do NOT have Exponents (like the 2 in x²) and square roots,

1. y < 3

Yes, this is a linear inequation. Frequently, the term linear equation refers implicitly to the case of just one variable (here y).

2. x ≥ 6

Yes.

3. x² > - 3

No, remember the rule the variable (here x) must not have exponents.

4. x - 3 > 1/2

Yes.

5. xy + 5 ≤ 7

This one is nice. If both x and y are variables then the answer is no, it's not a linear inequation. Why ?The linear equation is a sum of terms like "Ax" where x is a variable, and A is a number or a constant. On the other hand if x or y was a constant (like e or π), it could be treated as a number and the whole expression would become linear.

You can also have fun and write :

xy ≤ 2

for y > 0 we write:

x ≤ 2/y

x ≤ 2[tex]y^{-1}[/tex]

and then simply say exponents are not allowed so not a linear inequation.

You need 675 mL of a 90% alcohol solution. On hand, you have a 25% alcohol mixture. How much of the 25% alcohol mixture and pure alcohol will you need to obtain the desired solution?

Answers

Answer:

90 ml of the 25 percent mixture and 585 of pure alcohol

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, you should find the quantity of alcohol in the desired mixture.

675:100*90= 675*0.9= 607.5

Firstly,  define all the 25 percents mixure as x, the pure alcohol weight is y.

1. x+y= 675 (because the first and the second liquid form a desired liquid).

Then find the equation for spirit

The first mixture contains 25 percents. It is x/100*25= 0.25x

When the second one consists of pure alcohol, it contains 100 percents of spirit,  so it is x.

2. 0.25x+y=607.5

Then you have a system of equations ( 1.x+y= 675 and 2. 0.25x+y= 607.5)

try 2-1 to get rid of y

x+y- (0.25x+y)= 675-607.5

0.75x= 67.5

x= 90

y= 675-x= 675-90= 585

It means that you need90 ml of the 25percents mixture and 585 0f pure alcohol

In an accelerated failure test, components are operated under extreme conditions so that a substantial number will fail in a rather short time. In such a test involving two types of microchips, 580 chips manufactured by an existing process were tested, and 125 of them failed. Then, 780 chips manufactured by a new process were tested, and 130 of them failed. Find a 90% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of failures for chips manufactured by the two processes. (Round the final answers to four decimal places.) The 90% confidence interval is

Answers

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval is (0.0131, 0.0845).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before finding the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes 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].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Old process:

125 out of 580, so:

[tex]p_O = \frac{125}{580} = 0.2155[/tex]

[tex]s_O = \sqrt{\frac{0.2155*0.7845}{580}} = 0.0171[/tex]

New process:

130 out of 780. So

[tex]p_N = \frac{130}{780} = 0.1667[/tex]

[tex]s_N = \sqrt{\frac{0.1667*0.8333}{780}} = 0.0133[/tex]

Distribution of the difference:

[tex]p = p_O - p_N = 0.2155 - 0.1667 = 0.0488[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_O^2+s_N^2} = \sqrt{0.0171^2 + 0.0133^2} = 0.0217[/tex]

Confidence interval:

[tex]p \pm zs[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

90% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.1[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.645[/tex].

The lower bound of the interval is:

[tex]p - zs = 0.0488 - 1.645*0.0217 = 0.0131[/tex]

The upper bound of the interval is:

[tex]p + zs = 0.0488 + 1.645*0.0217 = 0.0845[/tex]

The 90% confidence interval is (0.0131, 0.0845).

Give a vector parametric equation for the line through the point (−2,−4,0) that is parallel to the line ⟨−2−3t,1−4t,−5t⟩:

Answers

The tangent vector for the given line is

T(t) = d/dt ⟨-2 - 3t, 1 - 4t, -5t⟩ = ⟨-3, -4, -5⟩

On its own, this vector points to a single point in space, (-3, -4, -5).

Multiply this vector by some scalar t to get a whole set of vectors, essentially stretching or contracting the vector ⟨-3, -4, -5⟩. This set is a line through the origin.

Now translate this set of vectors by adding to it the vector ⟨-2, -4, 0⟩, which correspond to the given point.

Then the equation for this new line is simply

L(t) = ⟨-3, -4, -5⟩t + ⟨-2, -4, 0⟩ = ⟨-2 - 3t, -4 - 4t, -5t

Give a vector parametric equation for the line through the point (−2,−4,0) that is parallel to the line ⟨−2−3t,1−4t,−5t⟩.

What is a parametric equation vector?

Parametric equations of the line segment are defined by its endpoints.

To find the vector equation of the line segment, we’ll convert its endpoints to their vector equivalents.

Two lines are parallel if they have the same direction, and in the parametric form, the direction of a line is always the vector of constants that multiply t (or the parameter).

The vector equation of a line is given by:

[tex]\rm v = r_0+tv[/tex]

Where v is the direction vector and [tex]\rm r_0[/tex] is a point of the line.

The tangent vector for the given line is

T(t) = d/dt ⟨-2 - 3t, 1 - 4t, -5t⟩ = ⟨-3, -4, -5⟩

Here,

[tex]\rm r_0 = (-2,-4,0) \ and \ v=(-3, \ -4, \ -5)t\\\\[/tex]

Then,

[tex]r = (-2, \ -4, \ 0) +(-3, \ -4, \ -5)t\\\\[/tex]
