A study of long-distance phone calls made from General Electric Corporate Headquarters in Fairfield, Connecticut, revealed the length of the calls, in minutes, follows the normal probability distribution. The mean length of time per call was 3.5 minutes and the standard deviation was 0.70 minutes. What is the probability that calls last between 3.5 and 4.0 minutes? (Round your z value to 2 decimal places and final answer to 4 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.2611

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following information :

Normal distribution:

Mean (m) length of time per call = 3.5 minutes

Standard deviation (sd) = 0.7 minutes

Probability that length of calls last between 3.5 and 4.0 minutes :

P(3.5 < x < 4):

Find z- score of 3.5:

z = (x - m) / sd

x = 3.5

z = (3.5 - 3.5) / 0.7 = 0

x = 4

z = (4.0 - 3.5) / 0.7 = 0.5 / 0.7 = 0.71

P(3.5 < x < 4) = P( 0 < z < 0.714)

From the z - distribution table :

0 = 0.500

0.71 = very close to 0.7611

(0.7611 - 0.5000) = 0.2611

P(3.5 < x < 4) = P( 0 < z < 0.714) = 0.2611

The 4th term of an exponential sequence is 108 and the common ratio is 3. Calculate the value of the eighth term of the sequence.

Answers

Answer:

The eighth term is 8748

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sequence is a geometric sequence

For an nth term in a geometric sequence

[tex]A (n) = a ({r})^{n - 1} [/tex]

where

a is the first term

r is the common ratio

n is the number of terms

To find the eighth term we must first find the first term

4th term = 108

common ratio = 3

That's

[tex]A(4) = a ({r})^{4 - 1} [/tex]

[tex]108 = a ({3})^{3} [/tex]

[tex]27a = 108[/tex]

Divide both sides by 27

a = 4

The first term is 4

For the eighth term

[tex]A(8) = 4 ({3})^{8 - 1} [/tex]

[tex]A(8) = 4({3})^{7} [/tex]

The final answer is

A(8) = 8748

The eighth term is 8748

Answer:

Difference : 4th option

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing we want to do here is to factor the expression x² + 3x + 2. This will help us if it is similar to the factored expression " ( x + 2 )( x + 1 ). " The denominators will be the same, and hence we can combine the fractions.

x² + 3x + 2 - Break the expression into groups,

( x² + x ) + ( 2x + 2 ) - Factor x from x² + x and 2 from 2x + 2,

x( x + 1 ) + 2( x + 2 ) - Group,

( x + 2 )( x + 1 )

This is the same as the denominator of the other fraction, and therefore we can combine the fractions.

x - 1 / ( x + 2 )( x + 1 )

As you can see this is not any of the options present, as we have not expanded ( x + 2 )( x + 1 ). Remember previously that ( x + 2 )( x + 1 ) = x² + 3x + 2. Hence our solution is x - 1 / x² + 3x + 2, or option d.

Your mother has left you in charge of the annual family yard sale. Before she leaves you to your entrepreneurial abilities, she explains that she has made the job easy for you: everything costs either $1.50 or $3.50. She asks you to keep track of how many of each type of item is sold, and you make a list, but it gets lost sometime throughout the day. Just before she’s supposed to get home, you realize that all you know is that there were 150 items to start with (your mom counted) and you have 41 items left. Also, you know that you made $227.50. Write a system of equations that you could solve to figure out how many of each type of item you sold.

A) x + y = 109
(1.5)x + 227.50 = (3.5)y
B) x + y = 109
(3.5)x + 227.50 = (1.5)y
C) x + y = 41
(1.5)x + 227.50 = (3.5)y
D) x + y = 109
(1.5)x + (3.5)y = 227.50
E) x + y = 150
(1.5)x + (3.5)y = 227.50
F) x + y = $3.50
(1.5)x + (3.5)y = 227.50

Answers

Answer:

[tex]D)\ x + y = 109\\(1.5)x + (3.5)y = 227.50[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the items sold with price $1.5 = [tex]x[/tex]

Let the items sold with price $3.5 = [tex]y[/tex]

Initially, total number of items = 150

Items left at the end of the day = 41

So, number of items sold throughout the day = Total number of items - Number of items left

Number of Items sold = 150 - 41 = 109

So, the first equation can be written as:

[tex]\bold{x+y = 109} ....... (1)[/tex]

Now, let us calculate the sales done by each item.

Sales from item with price $1.5 = Number of items sold [tex]\times[/tex] price of each item

= (1.5)[tex]x[/tex]

Sales from item with price $3.5 = Number of items sold [tex]\times[/tex] price of each item

= (3.5)[tex]y[/tex]

Total sales = [tex]\bold{(1.5)x+(3.5)y = 227.50} ....... (2)[/tex]

So, the correct answer is:

[tex]D)\ x + y = 109\\(1.5)x + (3.5)y = 227.50[/tex]

For part two, the only number not multiplying a variable is the 10, so that is the constant.

To find how many miles she drove, we first need to subtract the first 30 dollars from the final payment.

300-30=270

We than need to divide 270 by .25, because that is how much it costed per mile.

270/.25=1080

Answer:

In the first question shown, the answer is 3

In the second question shown, the answer is 10

In the third question shown, the answer is 1080 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

First question - 3 is the number before x, making it the coefficient

Second question - 10 is the only number without a variable, making it a constant

Third question - .25 * 1080 = 270. 270 + 30 = 300.

Given the equations of a straight line f(x) (in slope-intercept form) and a parabola g(x) (in standard form), describe how to determine the number of intersection points, without finding the coordinates of such points. Do not give an example.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, when you try to find the intersection point(s) you need to solve a system like this one

[tex]\begin{cases} y&= m * x + p }\\ y &= a*x^2 +b*x+c }\end{cases}[/tex]

So, you come up with a polynomial equation like.

[tex]ax^2+bx+c=mx+p\\\\ax^2+(b-m)x+c-p=0[/tex]

And then, we can estimate the discriminant.

[tex]\Delta=(b-m)^2-4*a*(c-p)[/tex]

If [tex]\Delta<0[/tex] there is no real solution, no intersection point.

If [tex]\Delta=0[/tex] there is one intersection point.

If [tex]\Delta>0[/tex] there are two real solutions, so two intersection points.

GCD of 86 and 42 = 2   [GCD = greatest common factor]

Hence, the greatest number of identical packages that Shaquira can make =2

The probability that a company will launch the product A and B are 0.45 and 0.60 respectively, in main while, probability that both products launched, is 0.35. What is the probability that Neither will of these products launch? (04) At least one product will be launched ?

Answers

Answer:

1) 0.3 ; 0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Probability that product A launch : P(A) = 0.45

Probability that product B launch : P(B) = 0.60

Probability that both product launch : P(AnB) = 0.35

P(A alone) = p(A) - p(AnB)

P(A alone) = 0.45 - 0.35 = 0.1

P(B alone) = p(B) - p(AnB)

P(B alone) = 0.60 - 0.35 = 0.25

Probability that neither product will launch :

1 - [p(A alone) + p(B alone) + p(AnB)]

1 - [0.1 + 0.25 + 0.35]

1 - 0.7 = 0.3

Probability that at least one product will launch :

P(A alone) + p(B alone) + p(AnB)

0.1 + 0.25 + 0.35 = 0.7

The cost of a pizza at the local pizza shop has a base price of $12 for a cheese pizza, plus $2 for each additional topping? What is the value of the slope?

Answers

Answer:

$2.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the base price is $12, which means the constant is 12. The toppings are the only things you can add to the pizza, so the price of each additional topping is the slope of the pizza's cost. The slope is 2 dollars.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

If we were to write a linear equation in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b where m = slope and b = y-intercept) of this situation, it would be y = 2x + 12 where y is the price and x is the number of toppings. This is because the price for every topping is 2x but the base price doesn't change, therefore it's a constant so it would be + 12. In this case, since m = slope, the slope is 2.

Answers

Answer: C. It is a function, but is it not one-to-one

The vertical line test helps us see that we have a function. Note how it is not possible to draw a single straight line through more than one point on the curve. Any x input leads to exactly one y output. This graph passes the vertical line test. Therefore it is a function.

The function is not one-to-one because the graph fails the horizontal line test. Here it is possible to draw a single straight horizontal line through more than one point on the curve. The horizontal line through y = 2 is one example of many where the graph fails the horizontal line test, meaning the function is not one-to-one.

The term "one-to-one" means that each y value only pairs up with one x value. Here we have something like y = 2 pair up with multiple x values at the same time. This concept is useful when it comes to determining inverse functions.

The key to answering this question is having a correct diagrammatic representation. Please check attachment for this.

We can see we have the formation of a right angled triangle with the distance between Clyde’s ship and the harbor the hypotenuse.

To calculate the distance between the two, we shall employ the use of Pythagoras’ theorem which states that the square of the hypotenuse is equal the sum of the squares of the two other sides.

Let’s call the distance we want to calculate h.

Mathematically;

h^2 = 25^2 + 43^2

h^2 = 625 + 1849

h^2 = 2474

h = √2474

h = 49.74 miles
