Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Substituting y = 4x+1 into 2y = -x-1 gives the equation

2(4x+1) = -x-1

Solve the equation:

8x+2 = -x-1

9x = -3

x = -⅓

Substituting y = 4x+1 into 2y = -x-1 will produce the equation 2(4x+1) = -x-1

What are the equations?

A mathematical statement known as an equation is made up of two expressions joined together by the equal sign. Based on the degree, there are four different main types of equations. Equations that are linear, quadratic, cubic, and polynomial

Given,  the equation y = 4x + 1 and another equation 2y = -x – 1.

Answer:

3.564 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the original garden is

A = 5.4 * 1.5 = 8.1

The new garden is

5.4*1.2 = 6.48 by 1.5*1.2 =1.8

The area is

A = 6.48*1.8=11.664

The increase in area is

11.664-8.1=3.564

The given information is,

To find the increase in area of the garden.

Formula we use,

→ Area = Length × Width

Area of the real garden is,

→ 5.4 × 1.5

→ 8.1 m

The new garden will be,

→ 5.4 × 1.2 = 6.48 m

→ 1.5 × 1.2 = 1.8 m

The area of the new garden is,

→ 6.48 × 1.8

→ 11.664

Then the increase in area of the garden,

→ 11.664 - 8.1

→ 3.564 m²

Hence, 3.564 m² is the increase in area.

A BYU-Idaho professor took a survey of his classes and found that 82 out of 90 people who had served a mission had personally met a member of the quorum of the twelve apostles. Of the non-returned missionaries that were surveyed 86 of 110 had personally met a member of the quorum of the twelve apostles. Calculate a 99% confidence interval for the difference in the two proportions.

Answers

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the difference in the two proportions is (-0.0247, 0.2833).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the Central Limit Theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

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.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

A BYU-Idaho professor took a survey of his classes and found that 82 out of 90 people who had served a mission had personally met a member of the quorum of the twelve apostles.

This means that:

[tex]p_S = \frac{82}{90} = 0.9111[/tex]

[tex]s_S = \sqrt{\frac{0.9111*0.0888}{90}} = 0.045[/tex]

Of the non-returned missionaries that were surveyed 86 of 110 had personally met a member of the quorum of the twelve apostles.

This means that:

[tex]p_N = \frac{86}{110} = 0.7818[/tex]

[tex]s_N = \sqrt{\frac{0.7818*0.2182}{110}} = 0.0394[/tex]

Distribution of the difference:

[tex]p = p_S - p_N = 0.9111 - 0.7818 = 0.1293[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_S^2+s_N^2} = \sqrt{0.045^2+0.0394^2} = 0.0598[/tex]

Calculate a 99% confidence interval for the difference in the two proportions.

The confidence interval is:

[tex]p \pm zs[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

99% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.575[/tex].

The lower bound of the interval is:

[tex]p - zs = 0.1293 - 2.575*0.0598 = -0.0247[/tex]

[tex]p + zs = 0.1293 + 2.575*0.0598 = 0.2833[/tex]

The 99% confidence interval for the difference in the two proportions is (-0.0247, 0.2833).

how many models does the following set have? 5,5,5,7,8,12,12,12,150,150,150

Answers

Answer:  3 modes

The three modes are 5, 12, and 150 since they occur the most times and they tie one another in being the most frequent (each occurring 3 times).

Only the 7 and 8 occur once each, and aren't modes. Everything else is a mode. It's possible to have more than one mode and often we represent this as a set. So we'd say the mode is {5, 12, 150} where the order doesn't matter.

Step-by-step explanation:

One thing we can do is to make everything in the same format, under one square root, with no non-square roots.

First, we can say that 6 is equal to √36 as 6² =36, and 6 ≥ 0. Therefore, 6√3 = √36 * √3 = √108

For A, √3 * √36 = √108, so this applies

For B, √18 * √6 = √108, so this applies

For C, 108² = √something bigger than 108 = √11664, so this does not apply

For D, √54 ≠ √108, so this does not apply

For E, √108 = √108, so this applies

For F, √3 * √6 = √18, so this does not apply

Answer:

2 = x          -7 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x - 2)(x + 7)

y  = (x - 2)(x + 7)

Chau Took 5 3/8 hours to clean the bedroom. Then he took a 1/2 to clean the den. How much total time did he take to clean two rooms.

Answers

Answer:

It took Chau 5 hours, 52 minutes, and 30 seconds to clean both rooms.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Chau took 5 3/8 hours to clean the bedroom, and then he took a 1/2 to clean the den, to determine how much total time did he take to clean two rooms the following calculation must be performed:

5 + 3/8 + 1/2 = X

5 + 0.375 + 0.5 = X

5.875 = X

0.875 = 7/8

60/8 x 7 = 52.5

Therefore, it took Chau 5 hours, 52 minutes, and 30 seconds to clean both rooms.

A five-year prospective cohort study has just been completed. The study was designed to assess the association between supplemental vitamin A exposure and mortality and morbidity for measles.

a. Exposure to vitamin A appears to protect against morbidity and mortality for measles.
b. Exposure to vitamin A appears to be a risk factor for morbidity and mortality for measles.
c. Exposure to vitamin A is not associated with morbidity and mortality for measles.
d. Exposure to vitamin A is a risk factor for morbidity and a protective factor for mortality for measles.

Answers

Answer:

Assessing the association between supplemental vitamin A exposure and mortality and morbidity for measles:

Regarding the relative risk, the correct statement is:

a. Exposure to vitamin A appears to protect against morbidity and mortality for measles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Relative risk for incidence of measles = 0.75

Relative risk for measles mortality = 0.5

Relative risk for mortality and morbidity for measles = 0.375 (0.75 * 0.5)

The combined relative risk is less than 50%

The association is weak because RR is less than 1.

Therefore, there is no association between supplemental vitamin A exposure and mortality and morbidity for measles.

Answers

(4) y = (3 - 2x)³ + 24x

Use the power and chain rules:

dy/dx = 3 (3 - 2x)² d/dx [3 - 2x] + 24

dy/dx = 3 (3 - 2x)² (-2) + 24

dy/dx = -24x ² + 72x - 30

A study conducted by the Center for Population Economics at the University of Chicago studied the birth weights of 614 babies born in New York. The mean weight was 3398 grams with a standard deviation of 892 grams. Assume that birth weight data are approximately bell-shaped. Estimate the number of newborns who weighed between 1614 grams and 5182 grams. Round to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:

The number of newborns who weighed between 1614 grams and 5182 grams was of 586.

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

The mean weight was 3398 grams with a standard deviation of 892 grams.

This means that [tex]\mu = 3398, \sigma = 892[/tex]

Proportion that weighed between 1614 and 5182 grams:

p-value of Z when X = 5182 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 1614.

X = 5182

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

[tex]Z = \frac{5182 - 3398}{892}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9772

X = 1614

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

[tex]Z = \frac{1614 - 3398}{892}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0228

0.9772 - 0.0228 = 0.9544.

Out of 614 babies:

0.9544*614 = 586

The number of newborns who weighed between 1614 grams and 5182 grams was of 586.

A cylindrical piece of iron pipe is shown below. The wall of the pipe is 1.25 inches thick: The figure shows a cylinder of height 14 inches and diameter 8 inches What is the approximate inside volume of the pipe?
332 cubic inches
69 cubic inches
703 cubic inches
99 cubic inches

Answers

Answer: 332 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

You can eliminate 69 and 99 as those answers don't make any sense. This leaves you with 703 and 332.

It says the wall of the pipe is 1.25 inches thick so you multiply that by 2 and subtract it by the diameter to get the insider diameter of 5.5

Now you just use the equation V = (3.14)(r^2)(14) where the radius is half of 5.5.

So to finalize the equation you get V = (3.14)(5.5)^2(14) which comes out to 332 cubic inches

The best choice is 332 cubic inches.

69 cubic inches and 99 cubic inches are less and 703 cubic inches is a large approximation.

Diameter = d= 8 inches

Height= Length = l= 14 inches

Thickness= 1.25 inches

Outer Radius= R= diameter/2= 8/2=4 inches

Inner radius = r= Radius - thickness

                            = 4- 1.25= 2.75 inches

Volume of the cylinder = Area × length

                                      = π r²× l

                                       = 22/7 × (2.75)² × 14

                                          = 332. 616 inches cube

So the best answer is 332 cubic inches
