A 12 ounce bag of rice costs $4.08. A 16-ounce bag of the same rice costs $5.76. Which bag is the better by
and by how much

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

16 once is the better one.

Answer 2

Answer: 12-ounce bag is better by $0.02 per ounce

Concept:

When coming across questions that ask for a comparison between prices, we should make the final unit [price per object].

In finding [price per object], simply do [Total price / number of objects].

Solve:

A 12-ounce bag of rice costs $4.08

Total price / number of objects = 4.08 / 12 = $0.34 per ounce

A 16-ounce bag of rice costs $5.76

Total price / number of objects = 5.76 / 16 = $0.36 per ounce

$0.36 - $0.34 = $0.02

$0.34 < $0.36, therefore, 12-ounce bag is better by $0.02 per ounce.

Hope this helps!! :)

1. Consider a lottery with three possible outcomes:-$125 will be received with probability 0.2-$100 will be received with probability 0.3-$50 will be received with probability 0.5a. What is the expected value of the lottery

Answers

Answer:

The expected value of the lottery is $80

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the expected value, we have to multiply each outcome by its probability

Then we proceed to add up all of these to get the expected value of the lottery

we have this as ;;

125(0.2) + 100(0.3) + 50(0.5)

= 25 + 30 + 25 = $80

Lost-time accidents occur in a company at a mean rate of 0.8 per day. What is the probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2

Answers

Answer:

0.01375 = 1.375% probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the mean during the interval, which means that the Poisson distribution is used.

Poisson distribution:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.

Lost-time accidents occur in a company at a mean rate of 0.8 per day.

This means that [tex]\mu = 0.8n[/tex], in which n is the number of days.

10 days:

This means that [tex]n = 10, \mu = 0.8(10) = 8[/tex]

What is the probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2?

This is:

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-8}*8^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.00034[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-8}*8^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.00268[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-8}*8^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.01073[/tex]

So

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.00034 + 0.00268 + 0.01073 = 0.01375[/tex]

0.01375 = 1.375% probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2.

Answer theas question

Answers

(1) Both equations in (a) and (b) are separable.

(a)

[tex]\dfrac xy y' = \dfrac{2y^2+1}{x+1} \implies \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{y(2y^2+1)} = \dfrac{\mathrm dx}{x(x+1)}[/tex]

Expand both sides into partial fractions.

[tex]\left(\dfrac1y - \dfrac{2y}{2y^2+1}\right)\,\mathrm dy = \left(\dfrac1x - \dfrac1{x+1}\right)\,\mathrm dx[/tex]

Integrate both sides:

[tex]\ln|y| - \dfrac12 \ln\left(2y^2+1\right) = \ln|x| - \ln|x+1| + C[/tex]

[tex]\ln\left|\dfrac y{\sqrt{2y^2+1}}\right| = \ln\left|\dfrac x{x+1}\right| + C[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac y{\sqrt{2y^2+1}} = \dfrac{Cx}{x+1}[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{\dfrac{y^2}{2y^2+1} = \dfrac{Cx^2}{(x+1)^2}}[/tex]

(You could solve for y explicitly, but that's just more work.)

(b)

[tex]e^{x+y}y' = 3x \implies e^y\,\mathrm dy = 3xe^{-x}\,\mathrm dx[/tex]

Integrate both sides:

[tex]e^y = -3e^{-x}(x+1) + C[/tex]

[tex]\ln(e^y) = \ln\left(C - 3e^{-x}(x+1)\right)[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{y = \ln\left(C - 3e^{-x}(x+1)\right)}[/tex]

(2)

(a)

[tex]y' + \sec(x)y = \cos(x)[/tex]

Multiply both sides by an integrating factor, sec(x) + tan(x) :

[tex](\sec(x)+\tan(x))y' + \sec(x) (\sec(x) + \tan(x)) y = \cos(x) (\sec(x) + \tan(x))[/tex]

[tex](\sec(x)+\tan(x))y' + (\sec^2(x) + \sec(x)\tan(x)) y = 1 + \sin(x)[/tex]

[tex]\bigg((\sec(x)+\tan(x))y\bigg)' = 1 + \sin(x)[/tex]

Integrate both sides and solve for y :

[tex](\sec(x)+\tan(x))y = x - \cos(x) + C[/tex]

[tex]y=\dfrac{x-\cos(x) + C}{\sec(x) + \tan(x)}[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{y=\dfrac{(x+C)\cos(x) - \cos^2(x)}{1+\sin(x)}}[/tex]

(b)

[tex]y' + y = \dfrac{e^x-e^{-x}}2[/tex]

(Note that the right side is also written as sinh(x).)

Multiply both sides by e ˣ :

[tex]e^x y' + e^x y = \dfrac{e^{2x}-1}2[/tex]

[tex]\left(e^xy\right)' = \dfrac{e^{2x}-1}2[/tex]

Integrate both sides and solve for y :

[tex]e^xy = \dfrac{e^{2x}-2x}4 + C[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{y=\dfrac{e^x-2xe^{-x}}4 + Ce^{-x}}[/tex]

(c) I've covered this in an earlier question of yours.

(d)

[tex]y'=\dfrac y{x+y}[/tex]

Multiply through the right side by x/x :

[tex]y' = \dfrac{\dfrac yx}{1+\dfrac yx}[/tex]

Substitute y(x) = x v(x), so that y' = xv' + v, and the DE becomes separable:

[tex]xv' + v = \dfrac{v}{1+v}[/tex]

[tex]xv' = -\dfrac{v^2}{1+v}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1+v}{v^2}\,\mathrm dv = -\dfrac{\mathrm dx}x[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac1v + \ln|v| = -\ln|x| + C[/tex]

[tex]\ln\left|\dfrac yx\right| -\dfrac xy = C - \ln|x|[/tex]

[tex]\ln|y| - \ln|x|  -\dfrac xy = C - \ln|x|[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{\ln|y| -\dfrac xy = C}[/tex]

A presidential candidate plans to begin her campaign by visiting the capitals in 3 of 47 states. What is the probability that she selects the route of three specific​ capitals?

Answers

Answer:

1 / 97290

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of ways of selecting 3 specific route capitals from 47 states can be obtained thus :

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Total possible outcomes = 47P3

Recall :

nPr = n! / (n-r)!

47P3 = 47! / (47-3)! = 47! / 44! = 97290

Hence, probability of selecting route if 3 specific capitals is = 1 / 97290

Game consoles: A poll surveyed 341 video gamers, and 95 of them said that they prefer playing games on a console, rather than a computer or hand-held device. An executive at a game console manufacturing company claims that the proportion of gamers who prefer consoles differs from . Does the poll provide convincing evidence that the claim is true

Answers

Answer:

proportion of gamers who prefer console does not differ from 29%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

n = 341 ; x = 95 ; Phat = x / n = 95/341 = 0.279

H0 : p = 0.29

H1 : p ≠ 0.29

The test statistic :

T = (phat - p) ÷ √[(p(1 - p)) / n]

T = (0.279 - 0.29) ÷ √[(0.29(1 - 0.29)) / 341]

T = (-0.011) ÷ √[(0.29 * 0.71) / 341]

T = -0.011 ÷ 0.0245725

T = - 0.4476532

Using the Pvalue calculator from test statistic score :

df = 341 - 1 = 340

Pvalue(-0.447, 340) ; two tailed = 0.654

At α = 0.01

Pvalue > α ; We fail to reject the null and conclude that there is no significant evidence that proportion of gamers who prefer console differs from 29%

Ethan buys a video game on sale. If the video game usually costs $60, and it was on sale for 20% off, how much did Ethan pay? Round to the nearest whole dollar.

Answers

Ethan will pay $31.99 with the discount.

How? This is the answer because:

If 39.99 is 100%, and you are trying to find 20%...

1. you need to set it up as a ratio (of course, you do not need to do this, but it is easier for me to do it this way)

2. the ratio will look like this: 39.99/100% x/20%

3. all we need to do from here is to cross multiply!

4 39.99 x

---------- = ----------

100 20

-price is on the top and percent on the bottom

-you would now do 39.99 times 20

-then divide by 100

5. once you have 20% of 39.99, you need to subtract that answer from the total

6. 39.99 - 7.998 = 31.992 (you need to round to the nearest hundredth)

A farmer has 80 feet of wire mesh to surround a rectangular pen.
A) Express the area A of the pen as a function of x, also draw the figure of A indicating the admissible values ​​of x for this problem.
B) What are the dimensions of the maximum area pen?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A). Let the dimensions of the rectangular pen are,

Length = l

Width = x

Since, farmer has the wire measuring 80 feet to surround the the pen.

Perimeter of the pen = 80 feet

2(l + x) = 80

l + x = 40

l = 40 - x ------(1)

Area of the rectangular pen = Length × width

                                               = lx

By substituting the value of l from equation (1),

Area (A) of the pen will be modeled by the expression,

A = (40 - x)

A = 40x - x²

B). For maximum area of the pen,

Derivative of the area = 0

[tex]\frac{d}{dx}(A)=0[/tex]

[tex]\frac{d}{dx}(A)=\frac{d}{dx}(40x-x^2)[/tex]

         = 40 - 2x

And (40 - 2x) = 0

x = 20

Therefore, width of the pen = 20 feet

And length of the pen = 40 - 20

                                     = 20 feet

Dimensions of the pen should be 20 feet by 20 feet.

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Rounding each number to 4 significant figures and expressing in standard notation :

(a) 102.53070,

Since the number starts with a non-zero, the 4 digits are counted from the left ;

102.53070 = 102.5 (4 significant figures) = 1.025 * 10^2

(b) 656.980,

Since the number starts with a non-zero, the 4 digits are counted from the left ; the value after the 4th significant value is greater than 5, it is rounded to 1 and added to the significant figure.

656.980 = 657.0 (4 significant figures) = 6.57 * 10^2

(c) 0.008543210,

Since number starts at 0 ; the first significant figure is the first non - zero digit ;

0.008543210 = 0.008543 (4 significant figures) = 8.543 * 10^-3

(d) 0.000257870,

Since number starts at 0 ; the first significant figure is the first non - zero digit ;

0.000257870 = 0.0002579 (4 significant figures) = 2.579 * 10^-4

(e) -0.0357202,

Since number starts at 0 ; the first significant figure is the first non - zero digit ;

-0.0357202 = - 0.03572 (4 significant figures) = - 3.572* 10^-2
