In a mid-size company, the distribution of the number of phone calls answered each day by each of the 12 receptionists is bell-shaped and has a mean of 43 and a standard deviation of 8. Using the empirical rule (as presented in the book), what is the approximate percentage of daily phone calls numbering between 19 and 67

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If you drew out the bell curve and put the values where they go, this would be a no-brainer that doesn't even need math to solve. However, we will use the formula and then the table for z-scores to find this answer.

We are looking for the probability that the number of calls falls between 19 and 67. The standard deviation is 8 and the mean is 43. The probability we are looking for is P(19 < x < 67), therefore we look for the probability first that number of calls is greater than 19:

[tex]z=\frac{19-43}{8}=-3[/tex] and from the table and to the right of the z-score, the probability that the number of calls is greater than 19 is .99865 (or 99.8%). Likewise,

[tex]z=\frac{67-43}{8}=3[/tex] and from the table and to the right of the z-score, the probability that the number of calls is greater than 67 is .00315.

Take the difference of these to get the probability that the number of calls falls between these 2:

.99865 - .00135 = .9973 or 99.7%

Chris and Josh have a total of 1,800 stamps in their collections, Josh and Jessica have a total of 2,200 stamps, and Jessica and Chris have a total of 2,000. How many stamps in all the three children have?

Answers

Answer: 3000 stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Chris and Josh have 1800 stamps

Josh and Jessica have 2200 stamps

Jessica and Chris have 2000 stamps

Suppose Chris, Josh, and Jessica have [tex]x,y, \text{and}\ z[/tex] stamps

[tex]\therefore x+y=1800\quad \ldots(i)\\\Rightarrow y+z=2200\quad \ldots(ii)\\\Rightarrow z+x=2000\quad \ldots(iii)\\\text{Add (i), (ii), and (iii)}\\\Rightarrow 2(x+y+z)=1800+2200+2000\\\Rightarrow x+y+z=3000[/tex]

Thus, all three have 3000 stamps

Solve the equation x^2 - 4x + 6 = 9 by completing the square.

Answers

Answer:

-4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

sin theta = opp/ hyp

sin theta = -3 /5

Using the Pythagorean theorem

opp ^2 + adj ^2 = hyp ^2

(-3) ^2 + adj ^2 = 5^2

9+ adj ^2 = 25

adj ^2 = 25 - 9

adj ^2 = 16

Taking the square root of each side

adj = ±4

Since we are in the 3rd quadrant  sin and cos are both negative so adj must be negative

adj = -4

cos theta = adj / hyp

cos theta = -4/5

What is the price of 450 g of nuts show ur work pls lol

Answers

Given:

Cost of 200 g of mixed nuts = $2.50.

To find:

The price of 450 g of nuts.

Solution:

We have,

Cost of 200 g of mixed nuts = 2.50 dollars

Cost of 1 g of mixed nuts = [tex]\dfrac{2.50}{200}[/tex] dollars

Cost of 450 g of mixed nuts = [tex]\dfrac{2.50}{200}\times 450[/tex] dollars

                                               = [tex]\dfrac{2.50}{4}\times 9[/tex] dollars

                                               = [tex]5.625[/tex] dollars

Therefore, the price of 450 g of nuts is $5.625.

Entonces…

5^2 + 12^2 = c^2

Nota: podemos ver que esto esta bien porque el sum de los dos lados suma el mas largo.

Ahora

In the xv-plane, the line determined by the
points (2,k) and (k, 32) passes through the origin.
Which of the following could be the value of k ?

Answers

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

If the diagonal line passes through the origin, that means it is proportional. That means that for every point on the line y/x is constantly the same value. So we have k/2=32/k.

Cross multiply: k^2=64

Square root both sides: k=8

Which of the following is the equation of a line that passes through the point
(1.4) and is parallel to the x-axis?
A.x=1 B.y=4 C.x=4 D.y=1

Answers

Given:

A line passes through the point (1,4) and is parallel to the x-axis.

To find:

The equation of the line.

Solution:

If a line is parallel to x-axis, then the line is a horizontal line. We know that the slope of a horizontal line is always 0. So, the slope of the required line is 0.

The point-slope form of a line is:

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Where, m is the slope and [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] is the point.

The slope of the required line is 0 and it passes through the point (1,4). So, the equation of the line is:

[tex]y-4=0(x-1)[/tex]

[tex]y-4=0[/tex]

[tex]y-4+4=0+4[/tex]

[tex]y=4[/tex]

The required equation is [tex]y=4[/tex].

Therefore, the correct option is B.

A hall has 22 rows of chairs there are 18 chairs in each row how many extra rows of chairs are needed to seat 468

Answers

Answer:

Total chairs = 18×22= 396

so no. of extra chairs need = 468-396 = 72

Now( 72/18) rows = 4 rows

Therefore 4 more rows are needed here

Hope it helps you

Answer: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of chairs in the hall can be found by multiplying 22 by 18 and getting 396. The amount of chairs needed is 468, so 468-396 gets you the amount of chairs still needed and the number 72. There are 18 chairs in each row, and 72/18 is 4. So 4 more rows are needed.

Pieter wrote and solved an equation that models the number of hours it takes to dig a well to a level of 72 feet below sea level

Answers

Answer:

It must be a positive number since it represents a number of hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Pieter's equation :

7h – 5(3h – 8) = –72

Opening up the bracket

7h - 15h + 40 = - 72

7h - 15h = - 72 - 40

-8h = - 112

Divide both sides by -8

-8h / -8 = - 112 / - 8

h = 14

Since, h represents the number of hours, and the value of h equals 14 (h cannot be negative), hence, option 2 is correct.

Answer:  x = 3

============================================

Explanation:

Since we have an isosceles right triangle, the the length of the hypotenuse (let's call it y) is equal to sqrt(2) times the leg length x.

In other words, [tex]y = x*\sqrt{2}[/tex]

If we replaced y with 3*sqrt(2), then we could say,

[tex]y = x*\sqrt{2}\\\\3\sqrt{2} = x*\sqrt{2}[/tex]

in which we can see that x = 3 must be the case. Or you could divide both sides of that last equation by sqrt(2) to find x = 3.

-------------------------

Another method:

We'll use the pythagorean theorem

[tex]a^2+b^2 = c^2\\\\x^2+x^2 = \left(3\sqrt{2}\right)^2\\\\2x^2 = 3^2*\left(\sqrt{2}\right)^2\\\\2x^2 = 9*2\\\\2x^2 = 18\\\\x^2 = 18/2\\\\x^2 = 9\\\\x = \sqrt{9}\\\\x = 3\\\\[/tex]

Determine the value of K that will cause f(x)=Kx^2+4x-3 to intersect the line g(x)=2x-7 at one point. SHOW ALL YOUR STEPS, DON'T USE DECIMALS INSTEAD USE FRACTIONS PLEASE!!!!!

Answers

Given:

The function are:

[tex]f(x)=Kx^2+4x-3[/tex]

[tex]g(x)=2x-7[/tex]

The graph of f(x) intersect the line g(x) at one point.

To find:

The value of K.

Solution:

The graph of f(x) intersect the line g(x) at one point. It means the line g(x) is the tangent line.

We have,

[tex]f(x)=Kx^2+4x-3[/tex]

Differentiate this function with respect to x.

[tex]f'(x)=K(2x)+4(1)-(0)[/tex]

[tex]f'(x)=2Kx+4[/tex]

Let the point of tangency is [tex](x_0,y_0)[/tex]. So, the slope of the tangent line is:

[tex][f'(x)]_{(x_0,y_0)}=2Kx_0+4[/tex]

On comparing [tex]g(x)=2x-7[/tex] with slope-intercept form, we get

[tex]m=2[/tex]

So, the slope of the tangent line is 2.

[tex]2Kx_0+4=2[/tex]

[tex]2Kx_0=2-4[/tex]

[tex]x_0=\dfrac{-2}{2K}[/tex]

[tex]x_0=-\dfrac{1}{K}[/tex]

Putting [tex]x=x_0,g(x)=y_0[/tex] in g(x), we get

[tex]y_0=2x_0-7[/tex]

Putting [tex]x=-\dfrac{1}{K}[/tex] in the above equation, we get

[tex]y_0=2(-\dfrac{1}{K})-7[/tex]

[tex]y_0=-\dfrac{2}{K}-7[/tex]

Putting [tex]x=-\dfrac{1}{K}[/tex] and [tex]f(x)=-\dfrac{2}{K}-7[/tex] in f(x).

[tex]-\dfrac{2}{K}-7=K\left(-\dfrac{1}{K}\right)^2+4(-\dfrac{1}{K})-3[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{2}{K}-7=\dfrac{1}{K}-\dfrac{4}{K}-3[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac{2}{K}-7=\dfrac{-3}{K}-3[/tex]

Multiply both sides by K.

[tex]-2-7K=-3-3K[/tex]

[tex]-2+3=7K-3k[/tex]

[tex]1=4k[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{4}=K[/tex]

Therefore, the value of K is [tex]\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex].
