Assume that adults have IQ scores that are normally distributed with a mean μ=100 and a standard deviation σ=15. Find the probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ between 81 and 119.
Answer:
The probability is [tex]P( x_1 < X < x_2) = 0.79474[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The standard deviation is σ = 15.
The mean μ= 100
The range we are considering is [tex]x_1 = 81 , \ x_2 = 119[/tex]
Now given that IQ scores are normally distributed
Then the probability that a randomly selected adult has an IQ between 81 and 119 is mathematically represented as
[tex]P( x_1 < X < x_2) = P(\frac{x_1 - \mu }{\sigma } <\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } < \frac{x_2- \mu }{\sigma } )[/tex]
Generally
[tex]\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } = Z(The \ standardized \ value \ of \ X )[/tex]
So
[tex]P( x_1 < X < x_2) = P(\frac{x_1 - \mu }{\sigma } <Z < \frac{x_2- \mu }{\sigma } )[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]P( x_1 < X < x_2) = P(\frac{81 - 100 }{15 } <Z < \frac{119- 100 }{15 } )[/tex]
[tex]P( x_1 < X < x_2) = P( -1.2667 <Z <1.2667 )[/tex]
[tex]P( x_1 < X < x_2) = P(Z <1.2667 )-P( Z < -1.2667 )[/tex]
From the standardized Z table
[tex]P(Z <-1.2667 ) = 0.10263[/tex]
And [tex]P(Z <1.2667 ) = 0.89737[/tex]
So
[tex]P( x_1 < X < x_2) = 0.89737 - 0.10263[/tex]
[tex]P( x_1 < X < x_2) = 0.79474[/tex]
If the sample size is increased and the standard deviation and confidence level stay the same, then the margin of error will also be increased.

If sin∠M = cos∠N and m∠N = 30°, what is the measure of ∠M?
Step-by-step explanation:
sin∠M = cos∠N
sin∠M = cos(30°)
sin∠M = √3 / 2
m∠M = 60° or 120°
If ∠M is acute, m∠M = 60°.
Answer: The measure of ∠M is 60°
Step-by-step explanation:
The complement of 30° is 60°
sin∠M =cos∠N
sin∠60°=cos∠30°
the measure of ∠M is 60°

Find interval of increase and decrease of f(x) = 8 sin(x) + cot(x), −π ≤ x ≤ π
Answer:
Given f(x)=8sin(x)+cot(x) for -pi<x<pi :
Note that:
f'(x)=8cos(x)-csc^2(x)
f''(x)=-8sin(x)+2csc^2(x)cot(x)
(1) To find the intervals where f(x) is increasing or decreasing we use the first derivative test; if the first derivative is positive on an interval the functio is increasing, negative implies the functio is decreasing.
Using technology we find the approximate zeros of f'(x) on -pi<x<pi :
x~~-1.443401
x~~-.3752857
x~~.3752857
x~~1.443401
Plugging in test values on the intervals yields:
f'(x)<0 on (-pi,-1.443401)
f'(x)>0 on (-1.443401,-.3752857)
f'(x)<0 on

sasha has some pennies nickels and dimes in her pocket. the number of coins is 18 the expression is 0.01p+0.05n+0.10d represents the value of the coins which is 1.08 she has twice as many dimes as pennies. How many of each coin does Sasha have
Answer:
3 pennies, 9 nickels, and 6 dimes
Step-by-step explanation:
We have three conditions:
(1) p + n + d = 18
(2) 0.01p + 0.05n + 0.10d = 1.08
(3) d = 2p
Multiply (2) by 100 and rearrange (3) to get a standard array.
(4) p + n + d = 18
(5) p + 5n + 10d = 108
(6) -2p + d = 0
Subtract (4) from (5). This gives
(4) p + n + d = 18
(7) 4n + 9d = 90
(6) -2p + d = 0
Multiply (4) by 2 and add to (6). This gives
(4) p + n + d = 18
(7) 4n + 9d = 90
(8) 2n + 3d = 36
Double (8) and subtract from (7). This gives
(4) p + n + d = 18
(7) 4n + 9d = 90
(9) 3d = 18
Divide (9) by 3. This gives
(10) d = 6
Substitute (10) into (7). This gives
4n + 9(6) = 90
4n + 54 = 90
4n = 36
(11) n = 9
Substitute (10) and (11) into (4). This gives
p + 9 + 6 = 18
p + 15 = 18
p = 3

Are we adding all 4 sides ?
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
you would do 2(5x-10) + 2(8x+4)= 26x-12
Answer:
26x - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter is the sum of all the exterior sides of a figure.
Here, we have a parallelogram, and its sides are 5x - 10, 8x + 4, 5x - 10, and 8x + 4. Adding these, we get:
(5x - 10) + (8x + 4) + (5x - 10) + (8x + 4) = 26x - 12
Thus, the answer is 26x - 12. Note that since the problem doesn't give a value for x, this cannot be simplified further.

23. f(x) is vertically shrank by a factor of 1/3. How will you represent f(x) after transformation?
A. f(3x)
B. 3f(x)
C. 13f(x)
D. f(13x)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
vertical stretching / shrinking has the following transformation.
f(x) -> a * f(x)
when a > 1, it is stretching
when 0< a < 1, it is shrinking.
when -1 < a < 0, it is shringking + reflection about the x-axis
when a < -1, it is stretching + reflection about the x axis.
Here it is simple shrinking, so 0 < a < 1.
I expect the answer choice to show (1/3) f(x).
However, if the question plays with the words
"shrink by a factor of 1/3" to actually mean a "stretching by a factor of three", then B is the answer (stretch by a factor of three).

Find the measure of ∠BEF
Please HELP ASAP
Answer:
100°
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that angles EFD and AEF are the same as they are alternate interior angles.
We also can note that BEF and AEF are supplementary, meaning their angle lengths will add up to 180°.
So we can create an equation:
(2x + 60) + (3x + 20) = 180
Combine like terms:
5x + 80 = 180
Subtract 80 from both sides
5x = 100
Divide both sides by 5
x = 20.
Now we can use this to find the measure of BEF.
[tex]2\cdot20 + 60[/tex]
[tex]40 + 60 = 100[/tex]
Hope this helped!
Answer:
BEF = 100
Step-by-step explanation:
The angles are same side interior angles and same side interior angles add to 180 degrees
2x+60 + 3x+20 = 180
Combine like terms
5x+80 = 180
Subtract 80
5x = 100
Divide by 5
5x/5 = 100/5
x = 20
We want BEF
BEF = 2x+60
= 2x+60
= 2*20 +60
= 40+60
= 100

[tex]a^{2} +b^2=c^2\\a=5\\b=x\\c=14\\5^2+x^2=14^2\\x^2=196-25\\x^2=171\\x=3\sqrt{19} =13.08[/tex]
When you enter the Texas Turnpike, they give you a ticket showing the time and place of your entry. When you exit, you turn in this ticket and they use it to figure your toll. Because they know the distance between toll stations, they can also use it to check your average speed against the turnpike limit of 65 mph. On your trip, heavy snow limits your speed to 40 mph for the first 120 mi. At what average speed can you drive for the remaining 300 mi without having your ticket prove that you broke the speed limit?
Answer:
87 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Total distance needed is 120 mi + 300 mi and that is 420 mi.
Driving at 65 mph means that it would take
420 / 65 hours to reach his destination.
6.46 hours .
at the first phase, he drove at 40 mph for 120 mi, this means that it took him
120 / 40 hours to complete the journey.
3 hours.
the total time needed for the whole journey is 6.46 hours, and he already spent 3 hours in the first phase. To keep up with the 6.46 hours required, in the second phase, he has to drive at a speed of
6.46 - 3 hours = 3.46 hours.
300 mi / 3.46 hours => 86.71 mph approximately 87 mph
Therefore, he needs to drive at not more than 87 mph to keep up with the journey while not breaking his speed limit

PLS HELPPPPPPPPPPP :p 8*10^3 is how many times larger that 4*10^2?
Answer:
20 times.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find out how many times larger a number is than another number, simply divide the two numbers, with the larger number being in the numerator.
For example, how many times larger is 6 than 2? The answer would be 6/2 or 3 times larger.
So, divide 8*(10^3) and 4*(10^2):
[tex]\frac{8\times10^3}{4\times10^2}[/tex]
Expand the expressions. This is the same as saying:
[tex]\frac{8\times10\times10\times10}{4\times10\times10}[/tex]
We can cancel two of the 10s since they are in both the numerator and the denominator. Thus, only one 10 is left in the numerator:
[tex]\frac{8\times10}{4}[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]=\frac{80}{4} =20[/tex]
Therefore, 8*(10^3) (or 8000) is 20 times larger than 4*(10^2) (or 400).
Answer:
20 times
Step-by-step explanation:
hey,
so lets solve 8*10^3 first
so we use the order of operations
P
= Parentheses first
E
= Exponents (ie Powers and Square Roots, etc.)
MD
= Multiplication and Division (left-to-right)
AS
= Addition and Subtraction (left-to-right)
so after doing the exponents part 8*1000
we do the multiplication
=8000
SO THE FIRST NUMBER IS 8000
now lets solve 4*10^2
so we use the order of operations
P
= Parentheses first
E
= Exponents (ie Powers and Square Roots, etc.)
MD
= Multiplication and Division (left-to-right)
AS
= Addition and Subtraction (left-to-right)
so we do exponents first 4*100
then multiplication
=400
SO THE SECOND NUMBER IS 400
To find out how many times larger a number is than another number, simply divide the two numbers, with the larger number being in the numerator.
now we divide 8000 by 400
=20
so 8*10^3 is 20 times larger than 4*10^2

5p - 3p = 4 - 2
2p = 2
Divide both sides by 2
We have the final answer as
p = 1Hope this helps you
When a constant force acts upon an object, the acceleration of the object varies inversely with its mass. When a certain constant force acts upon an object with mass 4kg, the acceleration of the object is 15/ms2. If the same force acts upon another object whose mass is
10kg, what is this object's acceleration?
Answer:
[tex]a = 6m/s^2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
When mass = 4kg; Acceleration = 15m/s²
Required
Determine the acceleration when mass = 10kg, provided force is constant;
Represent mass with m and acceleration with a
The question says there's an inverse variation between acceleration and mass; This is represented as thus;
[tex]a\ \alpha\ \frac{1}{m}[/tex]
Convert variation to equality
[tex]a = \frac{F}{m}[/tex]; Where F is the constant of variation (Force)
Make F the subject of formula;
[tex]F = ma[/tex]
When mass = 4kg; Acceleration = 15m/s²
[tex]F = 4 * 15[/tex]
[tex]F = 60N[/tex]
When mass = 10kg; Substitute 60 for Force
[tex]F = ma[/tex]
[tex]60 = 10 * a[/tex]
[tex]60 = 10a[/tex]
Divide both sides by 10
[tex]\frac{60}{10} = \frac{10a}{10}[/tex]
[tex]a = 6m/s^2[/tex]
Hence, the acceleration is [tex]a = 6m/s^2[/tex]
Find the surface area of the regular pyramid shown in the accompanying diagram. If necessary, express your answer in simplest radical form.
Answer:
The area of the pyramid is 360 unit²
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Base Edge, a = 10
Height, h = 12
Required
Determine the surface area
The surface area of a regular pyramid is calculated as thus;
[tex]A = a^2 + 2a\sqrt{\frac{a^2}{4} + h^2}[/tex]
Substitute values for a and h
[tex]A = 10^2 + 2 * 10 * \sqrt{\frac{10^2}{4} + 12^2}[/tex]
Evaluate all squares
[tex]A = 100 + 2 * 10 * \sqrt{\frac{100}{4} + 144}[/tex]
[tex]A = 100 + 2 * 10 * \sqrt{25 + 144}[/tex]
[tex]A = 100 + 2 * 10 * \sqrt{169}[/tex]
Take positive square root of 169
[tex]A = 100 + 2 * 10 * 13[/tex]
[tex]A = 100 + 260[/tex]
[tex]A = 360[/tex]
Hence, the area of the pyramid is 360 unit²

Answer:
z less-than negative 19 or z greater-than 11Step-by-step explanation:
Given the inequality [tex]|z+4|>15[/tex], we are to find the solution set of the inequality. Since the the function is an absolute value, this means that the function will be positive and negative.
For the positive value of the function;
[tex]z+4>15\\\\subtract\ 4\ from \ both \ sides\\z+4-4 > 15 -4\\\\z>11[/tex]
For the negative value of the function we have;
[tex]-(z+4) > 15\\\\-z-4> 15\\add\ 4 \ to\ both \ sides\\\\-z-4+4> 15+4\\\\-z> 19\\\\[/tex]
Multiplying both sides of the inequality by -1 will change the sense of the inequality sign;'

What are the solutions of the equation x4 + 6x2 + 5 = 0? Use u substitution to solve.
x = i and x = i5
x=+ i and x
x= +115
O x=V-1 and x = = -5
x=+ -1 and x = = -5
Answer:
A; The first choice.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the equation [tex]x^4+6x^2+5=0[/tex] and we want to solve using u-substitution.
When solving by u-substitution, we essentially want to turn our equation into quadratic form.
So, let [tex]u=x^2[/tex]. We can rewrite our equation as:
[tex](x^2)^2+6(x^2)+5=0[/tex]
Substitute:
[tex]u^2+6u+5=0[/tex]
Solve. We can factor:
[tex](u+5)(u+1)=0[/tex]
Zero Product Property:
[tex]u+5=0\text{ and } u+1=0[/tex]
Solve for each case:
[tex]u=-5\text{ and } u=-1[/tex]
Substitute back u:
[tex]x^2=-5\text{ and } x^2=-1[/tex]
Take the square root of both sides for each case. Since we are taking an even root, we need plus-minus. Thus:
[tex]x=\pm\sqrt{-5}\text{ and } x=\pm\sqrt{-1}[/tex]
Simplify:
[tex]x=\pm i\sqrt{5}\text{ and } x=\pm i[/tex]

C) n = 20, p = 0.05, find P(at least 3 successes)
P(X≥ 3) = p(3) + p(4) + p(5) +.... p(20)
To avoid complicated calculations, we can use the online binomial probability distribution calculator :
P(X≥ 3) = 0.07548
Chen is bringing fruit and veggies to serve at an afternoon meeting. He spends a total of $28.70 on 5 pints of cut veggies and 7 pints of cut fruit. The food cost is modeled by the equation 5 v plus 7 f equals 28.70, where v represents the cost of one pint of cut veggies and f represents the cost of one pint of cut fruit. If the cost of each pint of fruit is $2.85, what is the approximate price of a pint of veggies?
Answer:
(7 x 2.85) + 5v = 28.70. 19.95 + 5v = 28.70. 5v = 28.70 - 19.95. 5v = 8.75. v = 8.75/5. v = 1.75. A pint of veggies costs $1.75.
A restaurant hands out a scratch-off game ticket with prizes being worth purchases at the restaurant. The back of the ticket lists the odds of winning each dollar value: 0.05 for $10, 0.04 for $25, 0.01 for $50, and 0.003 for $100. What are the odds that the ticket is worth at least $25?
Answer: 0.05412
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula : Odds of having an event is given by [tex]o=\dfrac{p}{1-p}[/tex], where p = probability that event happens.
In terms to find p , we use [tex]p=\dfrac{o}{1+o}[/tex]
Given, he back of the ticket lists the odds of winning each dollar value: 0.05 for $10, 0.04 for $25, 0.01 for $50, and 0.003 for $100.
Let X be the worth of ticket.
Then, the probability that the ticket is worth at least $25 =
[tex]P(X\geq 25)=P(X=25)+P(X=50)+P(X=100)[/tex]
[tex]=\dfrac{0.04}{1+0.04}+\dfrac{0.01}{1+0.01}+\dfrac{0.003}{1+0.003}\\\\=0.05135[/tex]
The odds that the ticket is worth at least $25 = [tex]\dfrac{0.05135}{1-0.05135}[/tex]
=0.05412
hence, the odds that the ticket is worth at least $25 is 0.05412 .
