Find the point P along the directed line segment from point A(–9, 5) to point B(11, –2) that divides the segment in the ratio 4 to 1.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]P = (7, -\frac{3}{5})[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]A = (-9,5)[/tex]

[tex]B = (11,-2)[/tex]

[tex]m : n = 4 : 1[/tex]

Required

Point P

This is calculated as:

[tex]P = (\frac{m * x_2 + n * x_1}{m + n}, \frac{m * y_2 + n * y_1}{m + n})[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]P = (\frac{4 * 11 + 1 * -9}{4 + 1}, \frac{4 * -2 + 1 * 5}{4+1})[/tex]

[tex]P = (\frac{35}{5}, \frac{-3}{5})[/tex]

[tex]P = (7, -\frac{3}{5})[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the number of 10-inch stones, then (x-1) is the number of 5-inch stones, and the total width is ...

  10x +5(x-1) = 130

  15x -5 = 130 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

A nurse is preparing to administer cefaclor 40 mg/kg/day PO divided in equal doses every 8 hr to a child who weighs 48 lb. Available is cefactor
suspension 375 mg/5 ml. How many mL should the nurse administer per dose? (Round the answer to the nearest tenth. Use a leading zero if it
applies. Do not use a trailing zero.)

Answers

This question is solved by proportions.

Step 1:

A nurse is preparing to administer cefaclor 40 mg/kg/day.

This means that the first step is finding the baby's weight in kg.

The child weighs 48lb. Each lb has 0,453592kg.

So the child weighs 48*0.453592 = 21.7724kg.

Step 2:

Here, we find the daily dose.

For each kg, the baby is administered 40 mg.

Since the baby weighs 21.7724 kg, the daily dose is of 40*21.7724 = 870.896 mg.

Step 3:

Here, we find how many mL in a day.

For 375 mg, 5 mL are administered. How many mL for 870.896 mg?

375 mg - 5 mL

870.896 mg - x mL

Applying cross multiplication:

[tex]375x = 5*870.896[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{5*870.896}{375}[/tex]

[tex]x = 11.6[/tex]

Step 4:

Here, we find how many mL per dose.

Equal doses every 8 hours, so 24/8 = 3 doses per day.

11.6/3 = 3.9

Thus, the nurse should administer 3.9 mL per dose.

For more on proportional variables, you can check https://brainly.com/question/23536327.

Answer:

x = 3.9 ml  quantity of ml / dose

Step-by-step explanation:

The child weighs 48 lbs.

Then the weigh in kgs is  48 * 0.454 = 21.792 kgs  (since 1000 lbs = 454 kgs)

If the nurse has to prepare doses according to 40 mg/kg/day then for a child of 21.792 kgs it is needed  21.792*40 mg or 871.68 mg/day, and the fact that he or (she) need to take three doses then each dose will be  of

871.68/3 = 290.56 mg

So far we know that each dose should contain 290.56 mg, now we have the cefactor in a suspension wich density is 375 mg/5 ml or 75 mg/ml

Then by rule of three

if              75  mg     ⇒   1 ml

        290.56 mg     ⇒     x (ml)

x = 290.56/75  ( mg*ml)/ mg

x = 3.87 ml round to the nearest tenth

x = 3.9 ml

10. In a group of 50 people, there are two types of professionals, engineers and managers. If 36 of them are engineers and 24 of them are managers, how many persons are both managers and engineers?​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

The photo above is the Venn diagram

Now, the number of persons that are both managers and engineers= n

Since, Total number of persons is 50

Therefore, 50= M+n+E

M only = 36-n

E only = 24-n

Therefore, 50= 36 - n + n + 24 - n

50 = 36+24-n

50 = 60 - n

60 - n = 50

-n = 50 - 60

-n = - 10

Therefore, n = 10

Therefore, the number of persons that are both Managers and Engineers is 10persons.

The mean output of a certain type of amplifier is 102102 watts with a standard deviation of 1212 watts. If 6363 amplifiers are sampled, what is the probability that the mean of the sample would differ from the population mean by greater than 3.43.4 watts

Answers

Answer:

0.0244 = 2.44% probability that the mean of the sample would differ from the population mean by greater than 3.4 watts.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Mean of 102, standard deviation of 12:

This means that [tex]\mu = 102, \sigma = 12[/tex]

Sample of 63:

This means that [tex]n = 63, s = \frac{12}{\sqrt{63}}[/tex]

What is the probability that the mean of the sample would differ from the population mean by greater than 3.4 watts?

Below 102 - 3.4 = 98.6 or above 102 + 3.4 = 105.4. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, these probabilities are equal, and thus, we find one of them and multiply by two.

Probability the mean is below 98.6.

p-value of Z when X = 98.6. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{98.6 - 102}{\frac{12}{\sqrt{63}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.25[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.25[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0122.

2*0.0122 = 0.0244

0.0244 = 2.44% probability that the mean of the sample would differ from the population mean by greater than 3.4 watts.

What do you mean by normal distribution ?

A probability distribution known as a "normal distribution" shows that data are more likely to occur when they are close to the mean than when they are far from the mean.

Let assume the time taken for a one way trip be x .

x ⇒ N( μ , σ ²)

x  ⇒ N( 24 , 3.8 ²)

a)

The probability that trip will take at least 1/2 hour or 30 minutes will be :

P ( x ≥ 30)

= P [ (x - μ) / σ ≥ (30 - μ) / σ ]

We know that , (x - μ) / σ = z.

= P [ z ≥ (30 - 24) / 3.8)]

= P [ z ≥ 1.578 ]

= 1 - P [  z ≤ 1.578 ]

Now , using the standard normal table :

P ( x ≥ 30)

= 1 - 0.9394

= 0.0606

b)

The percentage of the time the lawyer is late for work will be :

P ( x  ≥ 15)

= P [ z ≥ -2.368 ]

= P [  z ≤ 2.368]

= 0.9918

or

99.18%

c)

The probability that lawyer misses coffee :

P ( 15 < x < 25 ) = P ( x < 25 ) - P ( x < 15)

= P [  z < 0.263] - P ( z < -2.368)

or

= 0.3659

d)

The length of time above which we find the slowest 10​% of trips :

P( x ≥ X ) ≤ 0.10

=  0.5438

e)

Let's assume that y represents the number of trips that takes at least half hour.

y ⇒ B ( n , p)

y ⇒ B ( 3 , 0.0606)

So , the probability that exactly 2 out of 3 trips will take at least one half

1/2 hour is :

P ( Y = 2 )

= 3C2 × (0.0606)² × ( 1 - 0.0606)

= 0.0103

Therefore , the answers are :

a) The probability that trip will take at least 1/2 hour will be 0.0606.

b) The percentage of time the lawyer is late for work will be 99.18%.

c) The probability that lawyer misses coffee will be 0.3659.

d) The length of time above which we find the slowest 10​% of trips will be 0.5438.

e) The probability that exactly 2 out of 3 trips will take at least one half

The mean length of time, per week, that students at a certain school spend on their homework is 24.3 hours, with a standard deviation of 1.4 hours. Assuming the distribution of study times is normal, what percent of students study between 22.9 and 25.7 hours

Answers

Answer:

Approximately 68% of students study between 22.9 and 25.7 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean of 24.3 hours, standard deviation of 1.4 hours.

What percent of students study between 22.9 and 25.7 hours?

22.9 = 24.3 - 1.4

25.7 = 24.3 + 1.4

Within 1 standard deviation of the mean, so:

Approximately 68% of students study between 22.9 and 25.7 hours.
