Answer:
0.9452 = 94.52% probability that more than 3 adults in the sample prefer saving over spending
Step-by-step explanation:
For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they prefer saving over spending, or they do not. The answers for each adult are independent, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
According to a Gallup poll, 60% of American adults prefer saving over spending.
This means that [tex]p = 0.6[/tex]
Sample of 10 American adults
This means that [tex]n = 10[/tex]
What is the probability that more than 3 adults in the sample prefer saving over spending?
This is:
[tex]P(X > 3) = 1 - P(X \leq 3)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)[/tex]
So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.6)^{0}.(0.4)^{10} = 0.0001[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.6)^{1}.(0.4)^{9} = 0.0016[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.6)^{2}.(0.4)^{8} = 0.0106[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.6)^{3}.(0.4)^{7} = 0.0425[/tex]
Then
[tex]P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.0001 + 0.0016 + 0.0106 + 0.0425 = 0.0548[/tex]
[tex]P(X > 3) = 1 - P(X \leq 3) = 1 - 0.0548 = 0.9452[/tex]
0.9452 = 94.52% probability that more than 3 adults in the sample prefer saving over spending
Matthew participates in a study that is looking at how confident students at SUNY Albany are. The mean score on the scale is 50. The distribution has a standard deviation of 10 and is normally distributed. Matthew scores a 65. What percentage of people could be expected to score the same as Matthew or higher on this scale
Answer:
The percentage of people that could be expected to score the same as Matthew or higher on this scale is:
= 93.3%.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Mean score on the scale, μ = 50
Distribution's standard deviation, σ = 10
Matthew scores, x = 65
Calculating the Z-score:
Z-score = (x – μ) / σ
= (65-50)/10
= 1.5
The probability based on a Z-score of 1.5 is 0.93319
Therefore, the percentage of people that could be expected to score the same as Matthew or higher on this scale is 93.3%.
Which pair of functions are inverses of each other?
O A. f(x) = f and g(x) = 8x?
O B. f(x) = 4 + 9 and g(x) = 4x - 9
O C. Ax) = 5x – 9 and g(x) = 149
O D. f(x) = 3 - 7 and g(x) = 247
When four times a number is added to 8 times the number, the result is 36. What is the number
Let the number = X
4x + 8x = 36
Simplify:
12x = 36
Divide both sides by 12:
x = 3
The number is 3
Help me please with this maths question thank you
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A)
The opposite sides of a rectangle are equal. The width make this obvious because both of them are x.
B)
The lengths are not so obvious, but it is never the less true. The two sides are obvious and they are therefore true.
4x + 1 = 2x + 12 Subtract 1 from both sides.
- 1 -1
4x = 2x + 11 Subtract 2x from both sides
-2x -2x
2x = 11 Divide by 2
x = 11/2
x = 5.5
C)
P = L + L + w + w
P = 4(5.5) + 1 + 2(5.5) + 12 + 5.5 + 5.5
P = 22 + 1 + 11 + 12 + 11
P = 23 + 23 + 11
P = 57
15. Mark Twain one observed that the lower Mississippi River is very crooked and that over the years, as the bends and turns straighten out, the river gets shorter and shorter. Using numerical data about the length of the lower part of the river, he noticed that in the year 1700 the river was more than 1200 miles long, yet by the year 1875 it was only 973 miles long. Twain concluded that any person “can see that 742 years from now the lower Mississippi will be only a mile and three-quarters lone.” What is wrong with his inductive reasoning?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm sure he was making a joke at the expense of people who rely on mathematics rather than common sense. It is funny, but then Twain was a remarkably funny author..
The problem is that the comparison is apt using some sort of proportion, but it is absurd to think that the land holding the river would also shrink a proportional amount.
The river reached a minimum (presumably) in 1875 by cutting out all the loops that were there in 1700. The Mississippi was then a straight line from it's beginning to its delta on the gulf of Mexico. It could not get any shorter. Still, Twain managed to get laughs with his whimsical humor.

A bacteria culture initially contains 100 cells and grows at a rate proportional to its size. After an hour the population has increased to 310.
(a) Find an expression for the number of bacteria after
hours.
(b) Find the number of bacteria after 3 hours.
(c) Find the rate of growth after 3 hours.
(d) When will the population reach 10,000?
Answer:
a) The expression for the number of bacteria is [tex]P(t) = 100\cdot e^{1.131\cdot t}[/tex].
b) There are 2975 bacteria after 3 hours.
c) The rate of growth after 3 hours is about 3365.3 bacteria per hour.
d) A population of 10,000 will be reached after 4.072 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The population growth of the bacteria culture is described by this ordinary differential equation:
[tex]\frac{dP}{dt} = k\cdot P[/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]k[/tex] - Rate of proportionality, in [tex]\frac{1}{h}[/tex].
[tex]P[/tex] - Population of the bacteria culture, no unit.
[tex]t[/tex] - Time, in hours.
The solution of this differential equation is:
[tex]P(t) = P_{o}\cdot e^{k\cdot t}[/tex] (2)
Where:
[tex]P_{o}[/tex] - Initial population, no unit.
[tex]P(t)[/tex] - Current population, no unit.
If we know that [tex]P_{o} = 100[/tex], [tex]t = 1\,h[/tex] and [tex]P(t) = 310[/tex], then the rate of proportionality is:
[tex]P(t) = P_{o}\cdot e^{k\cdot t}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{P(t)}{P_{o}} = e^{k\cdot t}[/tex]
[tex]k\cdot t = \ln \frac{P(t)}{P_{o}}[/tex]
[tex]k = \frac{1}{t}\cdot \ln \frac{P(t)}{P_{o}}[/tex]
[tex]k = \frac{1}{1}\cdot \ln \frac{310}{100}[/tex]
[tex]k\approx 1.131\,\frac{1}{h}[/tex]
Hence, the expression for the number of bacteria is [tex]P(t) = 100\cdot e^{1.131\cdot t}[/tex].
b) If we know that [tex]t = 3\,h[/tex], then the number of bacteria is:
[tex]P(t) = 100\cdot e^{1.131\cdot t}[/tex]
[tex]P(3) = 100\cdot e^{1.131\cdot (3)}[/tex]
[tex]P(3) \approx 2975.508[/tex]
There are 2975 bacteria after 3 hours.
c) The rate of growth of the population is represented by (1):
[tex]\frac{dP}{dt} = k\cdot P[/tex]
If we know that [tex]k\approx 1.131\,\frac{1}{h}[/tex] and [tex]P \approx 2975.508[/tex], then the rate of growth after 3 hours:
[tex]\frac{dP}{dt} = \left(1.131\,\frac{1}{h} \right)\cdot (2975.508)[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dP}{dt} = 3365.3\,\frac{1}{h}[/tex]
The rate of growth after 3 hours is about 3365.3 bacteria per hour.
d) If we know that [tex]P(t) = 10000[/tex], then the time associated with the size of the bacteria culture is:
[tex]P(t) = 100\cdot e^{1.131\cdot t}[/tex]
[tex]10000 = 100\cdot e^{1.131\cdot t}[/tex]
[tex]100 = e^{1.131\cdot t}[/tex]
[tex]\ln 100 = 1.131\cdot t[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{\ln 100}{1.131}[/tex]
[tex]t \approx 4.072\,h[/tex]
A population of 10,000 will be reached after 4.072 hours.

Answer:
[tex]x=-1\text{ or }x=11[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
For [tex]a=|b|[/tex], we have two cases:
[tex]\begin{cases}a=b,\\a=-b\end{cases}[/tex]
Therefore, for [tex]18=|15-3x|[/tex], we have the following cases:
[tex]\begin{cases}18=15-3x,\\18=-(15-3x)\end{cases}[/tex]
Solving, we have:
[tex]\begin{cases}18=15-3x, -3x=3, x=\boxed{-1},\\18=-(15-3x), 18=-15+3x, 33=3x, x=\boxed{11}\end{cases}[/tex].
Therefore,
[tex]\implies \boxed{x=-1\text{ or }x=11}[/tex]

If f(x) =4x2 - 8x - 20 and g(x) = 2x + a, find the value of a so that the y-intercept of the graph of the composite function (fog)(x) is (0, 25).
Answer:
The possible values are a = -2.5 or a = 4.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Composite function:
The composite function of f(x) and g(x) is given by:
[tex](f \circ g)(x) = f(g(x))[/tex]
In this case:
[tex]f(x) = 4x^2 - 8x - 20[/tex]
[tex]g(x) = 2x + a[/tex]
So
[tex](f \circ g)(x) = f(g(x)) = f(2x + a) = 4(2x + a)^2 - 8(2x + a) - 20 = 4(4x^2 + 4ax + a^2) - 16x - 8a - 20 = 16x^2 + 16ax + 4a^2 - 16x - 8a - 20 = 16x^2 +(16a-16)x + 4a^2 - 8a - 20[/tex]
Value of a so that the y-intercept of the graph of the composite function (fog)(x) is (0, 25).
This means that when [tex]x = 0, f(g(x)) = 25[/tex]. So
[tex]4a^2 - 8a - 20 = 25[/tex]
[tex]4a^2 - 8a - 45 = 0[/tex]
Solving a quadratic equation, by Bhaskara:
[tex]\Delta = (-8)^2 - 4(4)(-45) = 784[/tex]
[tex]x_{1} = \frac{-(-8) + \sqrt{784}}{2*(4)} = \frac{36}{8} = 4.5[/tex]
[tex]x_{2} = \frac{-(-8) - \sqrt{784}}{2*(4)} = -\frac{20}{8} = -2.5[/tex]
The possible values are a = -2.5 or a = 4.5.
A river is 212 mile long. What is the length of the river on a map, if the scale is 1 inch : 50 miles?
Answer:
4.24 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
1 inch / 50 miles = x / 212 miles Cross multiply
1 inch * 212 miles = 50 miles * x Divide by 50 miles
1 inch * 212 miles / 50 miles = x
x = 4.24 inches.
How much is 0.24 of an inch?
0.24 * 50 = 12
So 0.24 inches represents 12 miles.

Find the value of x. What is the value of x?
Answer:
x = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
The product of the lengths theorem is a property that can be sued to describe the relationships of the sides between the tangents and secants in a circle. One of these products states the following;
The distance between the point of tangency and its intersection point with the exterior secant squared is equal to the product of the exterior secant times the interior secant.
This essentially means the following equation can be formed;
[tex](AB)^2=(DC)(CB)[/tex]
Substitute,
[tex]12^2=x*9[/tex]
Simplify,
[tex]144=9x[/tex]
Inverse operations,
[tex]\frac{144}{9}=x\\\\16=x[/tex]
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{\sf x=7}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
By Targent-secant theorem...
[tex]\sf 9(x + 9) = {12}^{2} [/tex]
Use the distributive property to multiply 9 by x+9.
[tex]\sf 9x+81= {12}^{2} [/tex]
Now, let calculate 12 to the power of 2 and get 144.
[tex]\sf 9x+81=144[/tex]
Subtract 81 from both sides.
[tex]\sf 9x=63[/tex]
Divide both sides by 9.
[tex] \sf \cfrac{ 9x}{9} = \cfrac{63}{9} [/tex]
[tex]\sf x=7[/tex]

A pizza dough recipe calls for 6 1/2 cups of flour. The recipe makes 37 1/2 ounces of dough. How many ounces of dough does 1 cup of flour make?
Answer:
[tex]n = 5\frac{10}{13}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Call = 6\frac{1}{2}[/tex] cups
[tex]Recipe = 37\frac{1}{2}[/tex] ounce
Required
Number of ounces per cup (n)
To do this, we simply divide the Recipe by the call
So, we have:
[tex]n = \frac{Recipe}{Call}[/tex]
[tex]n = 37\frac{1}{2} \div 6\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Express as improper fraction
[tex]n = \frac{75}{2} \div \frac{13}{2}[/tex]
Rewrite as:
[tex]n = \frac{75}{2} * \frac{2}{13}[/tex]
[tex]n = \frac{75}{13}[/tex]
[tex]n = 5\frac{10}{13}[/tex]

The greatest common factor of 45a^2b^3 and 18a^4b
Answer:
9a²b
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
We need to find the greatest common factor out of 45a²b³ and 18[tex]a^{4}[/tex]b
We can split apart the monomials to make it easier
45a²b³ is 45*a²b³
18[tex]a^{4}[/tex]b is 18*[tex]a^{4}[/tex]b
First, let's find the GCF out of 45 and 18 (the number coefficients)
we can find all of the multiples of the 2 numbers:
45 is made up of 9 and 5
9 is made up of 3 and 3
so 3*3*5 is 45
18 is made up of 2 and 9
9 is made up of 3 and 3
so 2*3*3 is 18
3*3 is in both 45 and 18, so 9 is the GCF out of 45 and 18
Now let's find the GCF out of a²b³ and [tex]a^{4}[/tex]b
a²b³ made up of a² and b³
so a²b³ is a*a*b*b*b
[tex]a^{4}[/tex]b is made up of [tex]a^{4}[/tex] and b
so [tex]a^{4}[/tex]b is a*a*a*a*b
a*a*b is in both a²b³ and [tex]a^{4}[/tex]b, so the GCF out of a²b³ and [tex]a^{4}[/tex]b is a²b
Now multiply 9 and a²b together, as they are only the GCF of the parts of the monomials
9*a²b=9a²b
there's the greatest common factor of the 2 monomials
Hope this helps!
Cenntura was having fun playing poker she needed the next two cards out to be heart so she could make a flesh five cards of the same suit there are 10 cards left on the deck and three our hearts what is the probability that two cards doubt to Seterra without replacement will both be hearts answer choices are in percentage for format rounded to the nearest whole number
Answer:
7% probability that the next 2 cards are hearts.
Step-by-step explanation:
Cards are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.
Hypergeometric distribution:
The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:
[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]
In which:
x is the number of successes.
N is the size of the population.
n is the size of the sample.
k is the total number of desired outcomes.
Combinations formula:
[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
In this question:
10 cards, which means that [tex]N = 10[/tex]
3 are hearts, which means that [tex]k = 3[/tex]
Probability that the next 2 cards are hearts:
This is P(X = 2) when n = 2. So
[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = h(2,10,2,3) = \frac{C_{3,2}*C_{7,0}}{C_{10,2}} = 0.0667[/tex]
0.0667*100% = 6.67%
Rounded to the nearest whole number, 7% probability that the next 2 cards are hearts.
Which complex number does not lie on the line segment plotted on the graph?
Answer:
Notice that for 3 out of the 4 numbers, there is a relationship between the x and the y coordinate of the number; for 3+i, -2i, -2-4i we have that the real part is larger by 2 from the imaginary part. Thus, the points are on the same line in the imaginary plane; they satisfy x=y+2 or Re{z}=Im{z}+2. However, 2-4i does not satisfy this equation since 2 is not equal to -4+2. Hence, this point does not belong to the line that the other 3 points define.
Step-by-step explanation:
