Answer 1

Answer:

The data is:

From the adults in town:

8% have liver problems, of those:

  25% heavy drinkers

  35% social drinkers

  40% non-drinkers.

92% do not have liver problems (100% - 8% = 92%)

   5%  heavy drinkers

   65% social drinkers.

   30% non-drinkers

a) An adult is chosen at random, then:

Has a liver problems

We know that 8% of the adults have liver problems, so the probability is 8%, or 8%/100% = 0.08.

Is a heavy drinker

Out of the 8%, 25% are heavy drinkers, and out of the other 92%, 5% are heavy drinkers, so the total percentage of heavy drinkers is:

(i will use decimal math, because you always should work with decimals instead of percentages)

P = 0.08*0.25 + 0.92*0.05 = 0.066

or 6.6% in percentage form

If a person is found to be a heavy drinker, what is the probability that this person

the proability that some one is a heavy drinker was already found, it is p = 0.066.

Now, of those 0.066 we have:

p1 = 0.08*0.25 = 0.02 have liver problems.

So the probability that, given that some one is a heavy drinker, that her/him also have liver problems is:

P = 0.02/0.066 = 0.3 or 30%.

If a person is found to have liver problems, what is the probability that this person  is a heavy drinker?

]We already know that out of the 8% with liver problems, a 25% are heavy drinkers, so here the answer is 25% or 0.25.

If a person is found to be a non –drinker, what is the probability that this person has  liver problems.

From the 8% with liver problems, we have 40% of non-drinkers,

So the total proportion of non-drinkers with liver problems is:

p1 = 0.8*0.40 = 0.032

From the 92% with no liver problems, we have that 30% of them are non-drinkers, so here we have:

p2 = 0.92*0.30 = 0.276

The total proportion of non drinkers is:

p1 + p2 = 0.032 + 0.276 = 0.308.

Then if we know that some one is non drinker, the proability that the person has liver problems is equal to the quotient between the proportion of non-drinkers with liver problems ( 0.032) and the total proportion of non-drinkers.

p = 0.032/0.308 = 0.104

or 10.4% in percentage form.

The mean area of 7 halls is 55m².If the mean of 6 of them be 58m², find the area of the seventh all.​

Answers

Answer:

Area of 7th hall = 37 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Total area of 7 halls = 7*55 = 385

Total area of 6 halls = 6*58 = 348

Area of 7th hall = 385-348 = 37 m^2

Answer:

The area of the seventh hall = 37m²

Step-by-step explanation:

for 6 halls

Mean area of 6 halls = 58m²

[tex]Mean\ area = \frac{sum\ of\ areas}{Number\ of\ halls} \\58\ =\ \frac{sum\ of\ areas}{6} \\sum\ of\ areas\ of\ 6\ halls\ = 58\ \times\ 6 = 348\\sum\ of\ areas\ of\ 6\ halls\ = 348[/tex]

Let the area of the 7th hall be x

The sum of the areas of 7 halls = 348 + x   - - - - - - (1)

[tex]Mean = \frac{sum\ of\ the\ areas\ of\ 7\ halls}{7} \\55 = \frac{sum\ of\ the\ areas\ of\ 7\ halls}{7} \\sum\ of\ the\ areas\ of\ 7\ halls\ = 55\ \times\ 7\ = 385\\sum\ of\ the\ areas\ of\ 7\ halls\ =\ 385 - - - - (2)[/tex]

notice that equation (1) = equation (2)

348 + x = 385

x = 385 - 348 = 37m²

Therefore, the area of the seventh hall = 37m²

Answers

Answer:

Yes, Rolle's theorem can be applied

There is only one value of c such that f'(c) = 0, and this is c = 1.5 (or 3/2 in fraction form)

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes, Rolle's theorem can be applied on this function because the function is continuous in the closed interval (it is a polynomial function) and differentiable  in the open interval, and f(a) = f(b) given that:

[tex]f(0)=-0^2+3\,(0)=0\\f(3)=-3^2+3\,(3)=-9+9=0[/tex]

Then there must be a c in the open interval for which f'(c) =0

In order to find "c", we derive the function and evaluate it at "c", making the derivative equal zero, to solve for c:

[tex]f(x)=-x^2+3\,x\\f'(x)=-2\,x+3\\f'(c)=-2\,c+3\\0=-2\,c+3\\2\,c=3\\c=\frac{3}{2} =1.5[/tex]

There is a unique answer for c, and that is c = 1.5

Rolle's theorem is applicable if [tex]f(a)=f(b)[/tex] and $f$ is differentiable in $(a,b)$

since it's polynomial function, it's always continuous and differentiable..

and you can easily check that $f(0)=f(-3)=0$

so it is applicable.

now, $f'(x)=-2x+3=0 \implies x=\frac32$

there is only once value (as you can imagine, the graph will be downward parabola)

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at this table, we can see that the beginning point is (0,0) so this is a linear slope, meaning we won’t have to add anything.

This means that for every time we rise in x, y will rise by the same amount.

When x is 1, y is 68 - so the constant of proportionality here is 68.

2/5 ( 1/3 x− 15/8 )− 1/3 ( 1/2 − 2/3 x)

16/45x-11/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply across

2/15x-30/40-1/6+2/9x=

Get common denominators of like terms

6/45x+10/45x-9/12-2/12=

Combine like terms

16/45x-11/12

The simplified expression is: (16/45)x - (11/12)

To simplify the given expression, we'll follow the steps:

Step 1: Distribute the fractions through the parentheses.

Step 2: Simplify the expression by combining like terms.

Let's proceed with the simplification:

Step 1: Distribute the fractions through the parentheses:

2/5 * (1/3x - 15/8) - 1/3 * (1/2 - 2/3x)

Step 2: Simplify the expression:

To distribute 2/5 through (1/3x - 15/8):

2/5 * 1/3x = 2/15x

2/5 * (-15/8) = -15/20 = -3/4

So, the first part becomes: 2/15x - 3/4

To distribute -1/3 through (1/2 - 2/3x):

-1/3 * 1/2 = -1/6

-1/3 * (-2/3x) = 2/9x

So, the second part becomes: -1/6 + 2/9x

Now, the entire expression becomes:

2/15x - 3/4 - 1/6 + 2/9x

Step 3: Combine like terms:

To combine the terms with "x":

2/15x + 2/9x = (2/15 + 2/9)x

Now, find the common denominator for (2/15) and (2/9), which is 45:

(2/15 + 2/9) = (6/45 + 10/45) = 16/45

So, the combined x term becomes:

(16/45)x

Now, combine the constant terms:

-3/4 - 1/6 = (-18/24 - 4/24) = -22/24

To simplify -22/24, we can divide both numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor (which is 2):

-22 ÷ 2 = -11

24 ÷ 2 = 12

So, the combined constant term becomes:

(-11/12)

Putting it all together, the simplified expression is:

(16/45)x - (11/12)

It is determined that the function for the learning process is T(x) = 2 + 0.3 1 x , where T(x) is the time, in hours, required to produce the xth unit. Find the time required for a new worker to produce units 10 through 19.

Answers

Answer: 2.79 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the function for the learning process is T(x) = 2 + 0.3 1 x , where T(x) is the time, in hours, required to produce the xth unit

To calculate the time for the new worker to produce 10 units, substitute 10 for x in the equation above.

T(x) = 2 + 0.31 (10)

T(x) = 2 + 3.1

T(x) = 5.1 hours

To calculate the time for the new worker to produce 19 units, substitute 19 for x in the equation above.

T(x) = 2 + 0.31(19)

T(x) = 2 + 5.89

T(x) = 7.89 hours

The time required for a new worker to produce units 10 through 19 will be

7.89 - 5.1 = 2.79 hours

We know that the numbers 2, 3, and 5 are prime, while 1, 4, and 6 are not.

3 out of the 6 numbers are prime, therefore 3 out of the 6 numbers are not prime.

So the fraction is [tex]\frac{3}{6}[/tex]

This simplifies to [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex].

the prime numbers between 1 and 6 inclusive are:  2, 3, 5  (i.e 3 possible outcomes)

the non prime numbers are : 1, 4 and 6 (i.e 3 possible outcomes)

for each roll, the total number of possible outcomes is 6 (because its a 6-sided die)

P(does not roll a prime number) = P (rolls 1, 4 or 6)

= number of possible non-prime outcomes / total number of outcomes

Area of unshaded part = 2(8² - ¼*3.14*8²)

= 2(64 - ¼*3.14*64)

= 2(64 - 1*3.14*16)

= 2(64 - 50.24)

= 2(13.76)

Area of unshaded part = 27.52 cm²

Area of shaded part = Area of Square - Area of Unshaded part

Area of shaded part = 64 - 27.52 = 36.48 cm²

Joy is preparing 20 liters of a 25% saline solution. She has only a 40% solution and a 10% solution in her lab. How many liters of the 40% solution and how many liters of the 10% solution should she mix to make the 25% solution?

Answers

Answer:

10 Liters of 40% solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

10 liters of the 40% solution, and 10 liters of the 10% solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us say that x = the liters of the 40% solution, and y = liters of the 10% solution in her lab. We know that Joy is preparing a solution containing a total 20 liters, so x + y = 20. We can respectively create the following system of equations,

x + y = 20,

0.40x + 0.10y = 0.25 ( 20 )

And now we have to solve this system of equations for x and y, the liters of the 40% solution and the liters of the 10% solution,

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}x+y=20\\ 0.4x+0.1y=0.25\left(20\right)\end{bmatrix}[/tex]  ( Substitute x as 20 - y )

[tex]0.4\left(20-y\right)+0.1y=0.25\cdot \:20\end{bmatrix}[/tex] ( Isolate y )

[tex]8-0.3y=5[/tex] ⇒ [tex]80-3y=50[/tex] ⇒ [tex]-3y=-30[/tex] ⇒ y = 10

[tex]x=20-10 = 10[/tex] ⇒ x = 10

Therefore, there are 10 liters of both the 40% and 10% solution.

If x represents the rate that Joy traveled at for the first half of the trip, write an
expression that represents the amount of time it takes Joy to complete the second half of the
trip at the slower rate.

Answers

Answer:

time taken for trip 2nd half >  time taken for trip 1st half

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total distance of Joy's trip be = D

Then, the first half distance travelled = D/2

The rate (speed) at which Joy travels during first half = x

So, time taken to travel first half  = Distance / Speed

= (D/2) / x = D / 2x

Second half of trip distance travelled = remaining D/2

Let the rate (speed) at which Joy travels during second half = x'

As given, x' (second half speed) < x (first half speed)

So, time taken to travel first half =  Distance / Speed  

(D/2) / x' =  D / 2x'

As  x' < x : D / 2x'  > D / 2x .

Trip 1st half Time taken trip < 2nd half ; or trip 2nd half time taken > 1st half
