At a particular school, all students participate in at least one out of three activities: debate, music, and community service. 3 students do all three activities, 21 students do two or more activities, half of all students participate in music, and the ratio of participants in debate, music, and community service, respectively, is $5:4:3$. What is the total number of students at the school

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

48

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The activities in which the students of the school participate = 1) Debate, 2) Music, and 3) Community services

The number of students that do all three activities = 3

The number of students that do two or more activities = 21

The number of the students that participate in music = Half of the students

The ratio of the students that take part in debate, music, and community service = 5 : 4 : 3

Let x represent a common number factor of participants in each of the given three activities, we have;

5·x participate in debate, A

4·x participate in music, B

3·x participate in community service, C

We get;

The sum of the students in the school = A∪B∪C = A + B + C - A∩B - A∩C - B∩C + A∩B∩C

Given that the number of students that do two or ore activities = 21, we have;

(A∩B)∪(A∩C)∪(B∩C) = 21

However, we have;

(A∩B)∪(A∩C)∪(B∩C) = (A∩B) + (A∩C) + (B∩C) - A∩B∩C - B∩A∩C - C∩B∩A + A∩B∩C

∴ 21 = (A∩B) + (A∩C) + (B∩C) - 3 - 3 - 3 + 3

(A∩B) + (A∩C) + (B∩C) = 21 + 3 + 3 + 3 - 3 = 21 + 6 = 27

∴ -(A∩B) - (A∩C) - (B∩C) = -27

Therefore;

A + B + C - A∩B - A∩C - B∩C + A∩B∩C = 5·x + 4·x + 3·x - 27 + 3

5·x + 4·x + 3·x - 27 + 3 = 12·x - 24

The total number of students = A∪B∪C = 12·x - 24

The number of students participating in music, B = 4·x = Half the total number of students = (12·x - 24)/2

∴ 4·x = (12·x - 24)/2

8·x = 12·x - 24

12·x - 8·x = 24

4·x = 24

x = 24/4 = 6

The total number of students at the school = 12·x - 24 = 12 × 6 - 24 = 48

Find the value of DE.

Answers

Answer:

DE = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3 sides of the triangle are congruent , then

DF = EF , that is

[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] a - 15 = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] a - 5 ( multiply through by 5 to clear the fractions )

2a - 75 = a - 25 ( subtract a from both sides )

a - 75 = - 25 ( add 75 to both sides )

a = 50

Then

DE = EF = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] × 50 - 5 = 10 - 5 = 5

Step 1 of 2 : Find the expected value of the proposition. Round your answer to two decimal places. Losses must be expressed as negative values

Answers

Answer:

$1.46

Step-by-step explanation:

Required cards for winning :

1's, 2's and 3's

There are 4 cards of each in a total of 52 cards ;

Therefore, number of winning cards ;

(4 * 3) = 12 cards

Hence,

P(winning) = 12 / 52 = 3 / 13

P(not winning) = 1 - 3 /13 = (13 - 3) / 13 = 10/13

Earning (X)

Amount earned for winning = $43

Amount lost for not winning = $11

X ___ $43 ______ - $11

P(X) _ 3/13 _______ 10/13

Expected value, E(X) = ΣX*P(X)

Σ(X) = (43 * 3/13) + (-11 * 10/13)

E(X) = 9.9230769 - 8.4615384

E(X) = 1.4615385

E(X) = $1.46

Answers

Complete question is;

A soccer ball was kicked through the air and it followed the path. Let h(s) = −3s² +75 represent the height of the soccer ball after s seconds.

Find the time at which the soccer ball hits the ground.

Answer:

s = 5 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function;

h(s) = −3s² +75

Where;

h(s) is height at time s

s is the time taken

Now, the time at which the time at which the soccer ball hits the ground would be at h(s) = 0 since height is at 0 point.

Thus;

−3s² +75 = 0

−3s² = -75

s² = 75/3

s² = 25

s = √25

s = 5 seconds.

shanika has a lamp that she wants to send to her sister in baltimore.the lamp is in the shape of a rectangular prism.it measures 14 high, 9 wide, and 3 long.she wants to buy a box so that there is 1 all around the lamp for bubble wrap

Answers

Consider we need to find the dimensions and volume of the box.

Given:

The shape of the lamp is a rectangular prism.

It measures 14 high, 9 wide, and 3 long.

There is 1 all around the lamp for bubble wrap

To find:

The dimensions and volume of the box.

Solution:

Length of the box is:

[tex]3+2=5[/tex]

Width of the box is:

[tex]9+2=11[/tex]

Height of the box is:

[tex]14+2=16[/tex]

Therefore, the dimensions of the box are 5 by 11 by 16 units.

The volume of the box is:

[tex]V=l\times w\times h[/tex]

Where, l is length, w is width and h is height.

Putting [tex]l=5, w=11, h=16[/tex], we get

[tex]V=5\times 11\times 16[/tex]

[tex]V=880[/tex]

Therefore, the volume of the box is 880 cubic units.

Two legs of a right triangle measure 23 inches and 38 inches. What is the length of the hypotenuse, to the nearest

Answers

Answer:

hypotenuse ≈ 44 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides.

let the hypotenuse be h , then

h² = 23² + 38² = 529 + 1444 = 1973 ( take square root of both sides )

h = [tex]\sqrt{1973}[/tex] ≈ 44 inches ( to the nearest inch )

You want to find Pr[-2 < Z < -1].

The table tells you that

• Pr[Z < 0] = 0.5000

• Pr[Z < 1.00] = 0.8412

• Pr[Z < 2.00] = 0.9772

• Pr[Z < 3.00] = 0.9987

We have

Pr[-2 < Z < -1] = Pr[Z < -1] - Pr[Z < -2]

(because the distribution of Z is continuous)

… = Pr[Z > 1] - Pr[Z > 2]

(by symmetry of the distribution about its mean)

… = (1 - Pr[Z < 1]) - (1 - Pr[Z < 2])

(by definition of complement)

… = Pr[Z < 2] - Pr[Z < 1]

… = 0.9772 - 0.8412

where x is the number of members currently enrolled in the club. Approximate the total profit when 120 members are enrolled by computing the sum

Summation from i equals 1 to 6 Upper P prime (x Subscript i Baseline )Upper Delta x with Upper Delta x equals 20.

Answers

Solution :

Given :

[tex]$P'(x) = -0.0008x^3+0.20x^2+46.8x,$[/tex]    for x ≤ 200

Total profit when 120 members are enrolled is :

[tex]$\sum_{i=1}^6P'(x_i) \Delta x$[/tex]      with [tex]\Delta x = 20[/tex]

Using the left end points, we get,

The values of [tex]x_i[/tex] are : { 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100}

Therefore,

[tex]$P'(x_1) = P'(0)=-(0.0008)(0)^3+(0.20)(0)^2+(46.8)(0)$[/tex]

                        = 0

[tex]$P'(x_2) = P'(20)=-(0.0008)(20)^3+(0.20)(20)^2+(46.8)(20)$[/tex]

                          = 1009.6

[tex]$P'(x_3) = P'(40)=-(0.0008)(40)^3+(0.20)(40)^2+(46.8)(40)$[/tex]

                         =  2140.8

[tex]$P'(x_4) = P'(60)=-(0.0008)(60)^3+(0.20)(60)^2+(46.8)(60)$[/tex]

                         = 3355.2

[tex]$P'(x_5) = P'(80)=-(0.0008)(80)^3+(0.20)(80)^2+(46.8)(80)$[/tex]

                         = 4614.4

[tex]$P'(x_6) = P'(100)=-(0.0008)(100)^3+(0.20)(100)^2+(46.8)(100)$[/tex]

                           = 5880

[tex]$\sum_{i=1}^6P'(x_i) \Delta x = P'(x_1)\Delta x + P'(x_2)\Delta x + P'(x_3)\Delta x + P'(x_4)\Delta x + P'(x_5)\Delta x + P'(x_6)\Delta x $[/tex]  

= (0)(20) + (1009.6)(20) + (2140.8)(20) + (3355.2)(20) + (4614.4)(20) + (5880)(20)

= (20)( 0 + 1009.6 + 2140.8 + 3355.2 + 4614.4 + 5880)

= (20)(17,000)

= 340,000 cents

[tex]$=\frac{340000}{100} \ \text{dollars}$[/tex]
