Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

54, 55, 56, 57, 58

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

56 problems

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation.

[tex]\frac{3}{5}x<35<\frac{13}{20}x[/tex]

Why do we do this? We are told that she solved MORE than 60%, or [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex], and LESS than 65%, or [tex]\frac{13}{20}[/tex]. Therefore, if we set the TOTAL number of problems to x, we have an equation we can solve.

[tex]\frac{3}{5}x<35<\frac{13}{20}x\\[/tex]

Multiply all parts of the inequality by 20 to get rid of the denominators.

[tex]20*\frac{3}{5}x<20*35<20*\frac{13}{20}x\\ \\12x<700<13x[/tex]

Now we can solve TWO individual inequalities to isolate the x variable.

[tex]12x<700\\x<\frac{700}{12}\\x < 175/3\\x<58[/tex]

We can approximate 175/3 to about 58 (rounding down). We will sometimes round down when we have to deal with whole numbers.

The second inequality is as follows.

[tex]13x>700\\x>700/13\\x>53[/tex]

Therefore, we can combine the two inequalities.

[tex]53<x<58[/tex]

There were in between 53 and 58 questions. Since the number of questions must be a whole number, there can be 54, 55, 56, 57, OR 58. Why does 58 also work? When you plug 58 back into the original equation, you get that it STILL works. This is due to the fact that inaccuracies in computations allow you to round UP.

However, the last thing to keep in mind is that there are four sections with an equal number of questions. Meaning, the final answer has to be a multiple of four. The only multiple of 4 is 56; therefore, the final answer is 56.

The scores for a particular examination are normally distributed with a mean of 68.5% and a standard deviation of 8.2%. What is the probability that a student who wrote the examination had a mark between 80% and 100%? Give your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(80/100<x<100/100)=0.08[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Mean,[tex]\mu=68.5[/tex]%=68.5/100

Standard deviation, [tex]\sigma=8.2[/tex]%=8.2/100

We have to find the probability that a student who wrote the examination had a mark between 80% and 100%.

[tex]P(80/100<x<100/100)=P(\frac{80/100-68.5/100}{8.2/100}<\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{100/100-68.5/100}{8.2/100})[/tex]

[tex]P(80/100<x<100/100)=P(1.40<Z<3.84)[/tex]

We know that

[tex]P(a<Z<b)=P(Z<b)-P(Z<a)[/tex]

Using the formula

[tex]P(80/100<x<100/100)=P(Z<3.84)-P(Z<1.40)[/tex]

[tex]P(80/100<x<100/100)=0.99994-0.91924[/tex]

[tex]P(80/100<x<100/100)=0.0807\approx 0.08[/tex]

Question: Describe how to eliminate the parameter to change from parametric to rectangular form. How does this ability help us with graphing parametric equations?

Answers

Answer:

rectangular equation, or an equation in rectangular form is an equation composed of variables like xx and yy which can be graphed on a regular Cartesian plane. For example y=4x+3y=4x+3 is a rectangular equation.

A curve in the plane is said to be parameterized if the set of coordinates on the curve, (x,y)(x,y) , are represented as functions of a variable tt .

x=f(t)y=g(t)x=f(t)y=g(t)

These equations may or may not be graphed on Cartesian plane.

Answer:

$3309 at 6%$9985 at 9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y represent amounts invested at 6% and 9%, respectively.

  y = 3x +58 . . . . . . . the amount invested at 9%

  0.06x +0.09y = 1097.19 . . . . . . total interest earned

__

Substituting for y, we have ...

  0.06x +0.09(3x +58) = 1097.19

  0.33x + 5.22 = 1097.19 . . . . . . . . . simplify

  0.33x = 1091.97 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 5.22

  x = 3309 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.33

  y = 3(3309) +58 = 9985

$3309 is invested at 6%; $9985 is invested at 9%.

The height (in meters) of a shot cannonball follows a trajectory given by h(t) = -4.9t^2 + 14t - 0.4 at time t (in seconds). As an improper fraction, for how long is the cannonball above a height of 6 meters? Please show steps. Thank you!

Answers

Solve for 6 = -4.9t^2 + 14t - 0.4 and you will have 2 positive numbers. First one is when cannonball reach 6 meters and second is when after it starts to fall down to 6 meters. I estimate first number to be 0.5 and the second to be 2.5 so the duration is 2 seconds.

The electric cooperative needs to know the mean household usage of electricity by its non-commercial customers in kWh per day. They would like the estimate to have a maximum error of 0.09 kWh. A previous study found that for an average family the variance is 5.76 kWh and the mean is 16.6 kWh per day. If they are using a 98% level of confidence, how large of a sample is required to estimate the mean usage of electricity

Answers

Answer:

A sample of 3851 is required.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.01[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of .

That is z with a pvalue of , so Z = 2.327.

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.

Variance is 5.76 kWh

This means that [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{5.76} = 2.4[/tex]

They would like the estimate to have a maximum error of 0.09 kWh. How large of a sample is required to estimate the mean usage of electricity?

This is n for which M = 0.09. So

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.09 = 2.327\frac{2.4}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.09\sqrt{n} = 2.327*2.4[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.327*2.4}{0.09}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{2.327*2.4}{0.09})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 3850.6[/tex]

Rounding up:

A sample of 3851 is required.

The radius of a sphere is increasing at a rate of 3 mm/s. How fast is the volume increasing when the diameter is 60 mm

Answers

Answer:

The volume is increasing at a rate of 33929.3 cubic millimeters per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a sphere:

The volume of a sphere of radius r is given by:

[tex]V = \frac{4\pi r^3}{3}[/tex]

In this question:

We have to derivate V and r implicitly in function of time, so:

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = 4\pi r^2\frac{dr}{dt}[/tex]

The radius of a sphere is increasing at a rate of 3 mm/s.

This means that [tex]\frac{dr}{dt} = 3[/tex]

How fast is the volume increasing when the diameter is 60 mm?

Radius is half the diameter, so [tex]r = 30[/tex]. We have to find [tex]\frac{dV}{dt}[/tex]. So

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = 4\pi r^2\frac{dr}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = 4\pi (30)^2(3) = 33929.3[/tex]

The volume is increasing at a rate of 33929.3 cubic millimeters per second.

according to the fundemental theorem of algebra, how many roots exist for the polynomial function? f(x) = (x^3-3x+1)^2

Answers

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can expand the function to get its expanded form and to figure out what degree it is. For a polynomial function with one variable, the degree is the largest exponent value (once fully expanded/simplified) of the entire function that is connected to a variable. For example, x²+1 has a degree of 2, as 2 is the largest exponent value connected to a variable. Similarly, x³+2^5 has a degree of 2 as 5 is not an exponent value connected to a variable.

Expanding, we get

(x³-3x+1)²  = (x³-3x+1)(x³-3x+1)

= x^6 - 3x^4 +x³ - 3x^4 +9x²-3x + x³-3x+1

= x^6 - 6x^4 + 2x³ +9x²-6x + 1

In this function, the largest exponential value connected to the variable, x, is 6. Therefore, this is to the 6th degree. The fundamental theorem of algebra states that a polynomial of degree n has n roots, and as this is of degree 6, this has 6 roots
