Bob, Paula and Sam invest $50000 in a business. Bob invests $4000 more than Paul does and Paul invests $5000 more than Sam does. If the total profit was $70000, select the correct answer. Note that the profit is distributed proportionally based on the respective amount each invested. A. The ratio of the investment of Bob, Paula and Sam is 11:15:10. B. The ratio of the investment of Bob, Paula and Sam is 12:17:21. C. The ratio of the investment of Bob, Paula and Sam is 12:5:4. D. The profit of Paula was $23,800
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
since sam invest the least, let a be the amount invested by sam
sam = a
paul = a + 5000
bob = a + 5000 + 4000
3a + 14000 = 50000
3a = 36000
a = 12000
thus sam is 12000, paul is 17000 and Bob is 21000
therefore the ratio of B:P:S is 21:17:12
profit by paula is 17/50 x 70000 = 23800
The profit by Paula is 17/50 x 70000 = 23800.
We have given that Bob, Paula and Sam invest $50000 in a business. Bob invests $4000 more than Paul does and Paul invests $5000 more than Sam does. If the total profit was $70000
Since sam invest the least, let a be the amount invested by sam
Therefore we get,
sam = a
What is the investment of Paul?
The investment of Paul = a + 5000
Bob = a + 5000 + 4000
3a + 14000 = 50000
3a = 36000
divide both sides by 3 so we get,
a=36000/3
a = 12000
Therefore, sam is 12000,
paul =5000+12000=17000 and
Bob =12000+9000= 21000
Therefore the ratio of B:P:S is 21:17:12
The profit by Paula is 17/50 x 70000 = 23800.

Answer:
D. 96
F. 32
Step-by-step explanation:
The inequality 3x ≥ 96, means that x and 3 must be multiplied to get a product that is greater than 96. So to figure this out, you must plug in the numbers given for x, like so:
3x ≥ 96
A. 3(31) ≥ 96
93 ≥ 96 This is incorrect since 93 is not greater than 96
A tip that makes this easier is that, you can see that 31 multiplied by 3 is 93, which is only a couple numbers off 96, so all numbers after 31 will result in a product greater than 96. For example:
D. 3(96) ≥ 96
288 ≥ 96 This inequality is correct
F. 3(32) ≥ 96
96 ≥ 96
The inequality sign states that the number must be either greater or equal to 96, which it is.
The operations manager at a compact fluorescent light bulb (CFL) factory needs to estimate the mean life of a large shipment of CFLs. The manufacturer’s specifications are that the population standard deviation is 1,000 hours. A random sample of 64 CFLs indicated a sample mean life of 7,500 hours.
Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate for the popu- lation mean life of compact fluorescent light bulbs in this shipment.
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean life of compact fluorescent light bulbs in this shipment is between 7,255 hours and 7,745 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:
[tex]\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]
Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex].
So it is z with a pvalue of [tex]1-0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]z = 1.95[/tex]
Now, find the margin of error M as such
[tex]M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
[tex]M = 1.96*\frac{1000}{\sqrt{64}} = 245[/tex]
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 7500 - 245 = 7255 hours.
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 7500 + 245 = 7745 hours.
The 95% confidence interval estimate for the population mean life of compact fluorescent light bulbs in this shipment is between 7,255 hours and 7,745 hours.
A means of the estimate numerical, the variation in that estimate is referred to as the confidence interval, therefore its value is "[tex][7255, 7745][/tex]".
Confidence interval:[tex]95\%[/tex] C.I. for a mean lifetime is given by
[tex]= [ \overline{X} - \tau_{0.975} \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} , \overline{X} + \tau_{0.975} \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} ][/tex], where
[tex]\bar{X}[/tex] (sample mean) [tex]= 7500[/tex]
[tex]\sigma[/tex] (standard deviation)[tex]= 1000[/tex]
[tex]n = 64[/tex]
by putting the value into the above-given formula we get the value that is [tex]= [7255, 7745].[/tex]

Write one digit on each side of 73 to make a four digit multiple of 36. How many different solutions does this problem have?
Answer: an option is 2736
and we only have two possible solutions, the other is 6732
Step-by-step explanation:
we want to write a number:
a73b, where a and b are one digit numbers (0 to 9) in such way that the number is divisible by 36.
Now, we know that 36 is multiple of 6, so 6*6 = 36
The multiples of 36 are always even numbers, so we can discard all the odd options for b.
We also can discard the option a = 0, because we want a 4 digit number.
now, let's do it by brute force.
if a = 1, we have:
173b, now you can give b different values (only even values) and see if some of them is divisible by 36. You will find that none is.
if a = 2
273b
when b = 6, we have:
N = 2736, that is divisible by 36 as:
2736/36 = 79, so this is a multiple of 36.
now, you can keep changing the value of a and find all the different possible solutions.
if a = 3,
373b is not divisible by 36 for any value of b
if a = 4
473b is not divisible by 36 for any value of b
if a = 5
573b is not divisible by 36 for any value of b
if a= 6
673b it is divisible by 36 when b = 2.
6732/36 = 187
if a = 7
773b is not divisible by 36 for any value of b
if a = 8
873b is not divisible by 36 for any value of b
if a = 9
973b is not divisible by 36 for any value of b
So we only have two possible solutions
The different solutions this problem have are 2736 and 6732.
What is a Digit?This is a part of a number which consists of numerals from 0 to 9.
a73b is the first number where a and b are one digit numbers (0 to 9) which is divisible by 36.
All multiples of 36 are always even numbers, so odd number options for b isn't considered.
If a = 2 when b = 6, we have: it is divisible by 36 when b = 2.
N = 2736, which is divisible by 36 to give 76 hence it is a multiple of 36.
673b is divisible by 36 when b = 2.
N = 6732 which is divisible by 36 to give 187 hence it is a multiple of 36.
Hence, the two values are 2736 and 6732.

How does Harrison Bergeron's physical description help to create satire?
Answer:
The absurdity of Harrison's exaggerated handicaps ridicules society's obsession with equality.Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In the year 2081, the 211th, 212th, and 213th amendments to the Constitution dictate that all Americans are fully equal and not allowed to be smarter, better-looking, or more physically able than anyone else. The Handicapper General's agents enforce the equality laws, forcing citizens to wear "handicaps": masks for those who are too beautiful, loud radios that disrupt thoughts inside the ears of intelligent people, and heavy weights for the strong or athletic.
One April, 14-year-old Harrison Bergeron, an intelligent, athletic, and good-looking teenager, is taken away from his parents, George and Hazel Bergeron, by the government. They are barely aware of the tragedy, as Hazel has "average" intelligence (a euphemism for stupidity), and George has a handicap radio installed by the government to regulate his above-average intelligence.
Hazel and George watch ballet on television.They comment on the dancers, who are weighed down to counteract their gracefulness and masked to hide their attractiveness. George's thoughts are continually interrupted by the different noises emitted by his handicap radio, which piques Hazel's curiosity and imagination regarding handicaps. Noticing his exhaustion, Hazel urges George to lie down and rest his "handicap bag", 47 pounds (21 kg) of weights locked around George's neck. She suggests taking a few of the weights out of the bag, but George resists, aware of the illegality of such an action.
On television, a news reporter struggles to read the bulletin and hands it to the ballerina wearing the most grotesque mask and heaviest weights. She begins reading in her unacceptably natural, beautiful voice, then apologizes before switching to a more unpleasant voice. Harrison's escape from prison is announced, and a full-body photograph of Harrison is shown, indicating that he is seven feet (2.1 m) tall and burdened by three hundred pounds (140 kg) of handicaps.
George recognizes his son for a moment, before having the thought eliminated by his radio. Harrison himself then storms the television studio in an attempt to overthrow the government. He calls himself the Emperor and rips off all of his handicaps, along with the handicaps of a ballerina, whom he proclaims his "Empress". He orders the musicians to play, promising them nobility if they do their best. Unhappy with their initial attempt, Harrison takes control for a short while, and the music improves. After listening and being moved by the music, Harrison and his Empress dance while flying to the ceiling, then pause in mid-air to kiss.
Diana Moon Glampers, the Handicapper General, enters the studio and kills Harrison and the Empress with a ten-gauge double-barreled shotgun. She forces the musicians to put on their handicaps, and the television goes dark. George, unaware of the televised incident, returns from the kitchen and asks Hazel why she was crying, to which she replies that something sad happened on television that she cannot remember. He comforts her and they return to their average lives.

Step-by-step explanation:
A general equation of a hyperbola is
x^2 y^2
-------- - ------- = 1 (This applies only when the center of the hyperbola
a^2 b^2 is at (0, 0) ).
You must compare the given equations to this standard form to identify which represents the hyperbola shown, and also you must share the illustration of the hyperbola.
The equation represents the hyperbola shown in the graph is (y - 1)² / 9 - (x + 4)² / 4 = 1
What is a hyperbola?A hyperbola is a type of smooth curve lying in a plane, defined by its geometric properties or by equations for which it is the solution set.
A hyperbola has two pieces, called connected components or branches, that are mirror images of each other and resemble two infinite bows.
Given that, a graph, showing hyperbola, we need to find the equation,
We have the general equation for up - down facing hyperbola as
(y - k)² / b²- (x - h)² / a² = 1.
Let's start listing the properties of this graph -
Taking a look at the graph we see that the center point of our hyperbola here is (- 4, 1).
Therefore, (h, k) = (- 4,1).
This is the semi distance from the center to one of the vertices. Here it will be the distance from points (- 4,1) and (- 4,4) or 3 unit difference.
Therefore, a = 3.
That gives asymptotes. Now remember that it will be in the form
y = ± b / a.
We already know a = 3, so we have to find b.
Looking at this graph we can say that another point besides (- 4,1) that lies on the "dotted line" is (- 2, - 2).
Calculating the slope of the dotted line would be as follows,
Given: (- 4,1) and (- 2, - 2)
Slope = - 2 + 4 / - 2 - 1 = 2 / 3
We have the equation y = 2 / 3x.
Therefore, b = 2.
Let's substitute to equation...
h = - 4, k = 1, b = 2, a = 3
(y - 1)² / (3)²- (x + 4)² / (2)² = 1
(y - 1)² / 9 - (x + 4)² / 4 = 1
Hence, the equation represents the hyperbola shown in the graph is (y - 1)² / 9 - (x + 4)² / 4 = 1

State the hypotheses. The first step is to state the null hypothesis and an alternative hypothesis.
Null hypothesis: μNew< μOld
Alternative hypothesis: μNew > μOld
Note that these hypotheses constitute a one-tailed test. The null hypothesis will be rejected if the mean difference between sample means is too small.
Formulate an analysis plan. For this analysis, the significance level is 0.05. Using sample data, we will conduct a two-sample t-test of the null hypothesis.
Analyze sample data. Using sample data, we compute the standard error (SE), degrees of freedom (DF), and the t statistic test statistic (t).
[tex]SE=\sqrt{\frac{S_1^2}{n_1} +\frac{S_2^2}{n_2} } \\\\SE=4.29[/tex]
DF = 31
[tex]t = \frac{(x_1-x_2)-d}{SE} \\\\t = - 0.4997[/tex]
where s1 is the standard deviation of sample 1, s2 is the standard deviation of sample 2, n1 is the size of sample 1, n2 is the size of sample 2, x1 is the mean of sample 1, x2 is the mean of sample 2, d is the hypothesized difference between population means, and SE is the standard error.
The observed difference in sample means produced a t statistic of - 0.499. We use the t Distribution Calculator to find P(t < - 0.499) = 0.311
Therefore, the P-value in this analysis is 0.311.
Interpret results. Since the P-value (0.311) is greater than the significance level (0.05), we cannot reject the null hypothesis.
From the above test we do have sufficient evidence in the favor of the claim that new method is efficient than the old method.
