Answer:

[tex]\dfrac{-14}{9}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

The given number is [tex]-1.\overline{5}[/tex].

We need to find a rational number in fraction form that is equivalent to given number.

Let [tex]x=-1.\overline{5}[/tex]

[tex]x=-1.555...[/tex]     ...(1)

Multiply both sides by 10.

[tex]10x=-15.555...[/tex]  ...(2)

Subtracting (1) from (2), we get

[tex]10x-x=-15.555...-(-1.555...)[/tex]

[tex]9x=-14[/tex]

Divide both sides by 9.

[tex]x=\dfrac{-14}{9}[/tex]

Therefore, the required rational number is [tex]\dfrac{-14}{9}[/tex].

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(1-CotA)² + (tanA-1)² = 4csc2A(csc2A-1)

To prove this equation we will take the expression given in left hand side and will convert it into the expression given in right hand side of the equation.

L.H.S. = (1-CotA)² + (tanA-1)²

          = 1 + Cot²A - 2CotA + 1 + tan²A - 2tanA

          = cosec²A - 2CotA + Sec²A - 2tanA

[Since, (1 + Cot²A = cosec²A) and (1 + tan²A = Sec²A)]

          = (cosec²A + Sec²A) - 2(CotA + tanA)

          = [tex](\frac{1}{\text{SinA}})^{2}+(\frac{1}{CosA} )^{2}-2\text{(tanA}+\frac{1}{\text{tanA}})}[/tex]

          = [tex]\frac{1}{(\text{SinA.CosA})^2}-2(\frac{tan^2A+1}{tanA} )[/tex]

          = [tex]\frac{4}{\text{(Sin2A})^{2}}-4(\frac{1}{\text{Sin2A}} )[/tex]

[Since 2SinA.CosA = Sin2A and [tex]\frac{2(\text{tanA})}{1+\text{tan}^{2}A}=\text{Sin2A}[/tex]]

          = 4Cosec²2A - 4Cosec2A

          = 4Cosec2A(Cosec2A - 1)

          = R.H.S. (Right hand side)

Hence the equation is proved.

Answer:

If a number is an integer, then it is irrational.  ⇒ false statement

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's check:

If a number is an integer, then it is irrational.

- incorrect, as all integers are rational

If a number is a natural number, then it is rational.

- correct, natural numbers are subset of rational numbers

If a number is a fraction, then it is rational.

- correct, they can be shown as p/q

If a number is a whole number, then it is rational.

- correct, whole numbers are subset of rational numbers

The statement "If a number is an integer, then it is irrational" is false.

The statement "If a number is an integer, then it is irrational" is false. This is because not all integers are irrational.

The other statements are all true:

"If a number is a natural number, then it is rational." This is true because all natural numbers are integers, and all integers are rational.

"If a number is a fraction, then it is rational." This is true because a fraction is a number of the form p/q, where p and q are integers and q is not equal to 0. Any number of this form is rational.

"If a number is a whole number, then it is rational." This is true because all whole numbers are integers, and all integers are rational.

Therefore, the false statement is the first one: "If a number is an integer, then it is irrational."

Below is a table summarizing the statements:

Statement                                                                  Truth value    

If a number is an integer, then it is irrational               False

If a number is a natural number, then it is rational     True

If a number is a fraction, then it is rational                  True

If a number is a whole number, then it is rational      True

Answer:

160 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a ratio to solve

220 miles         x miles

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

5.5 hours          4 hours

Using cross products

220 *4 = 5.5x

880 = 5.5x

Divide each side by 5.5

880/5.5 = x

160 miles

Answer:

[tex]\large \boxed{\mathrm{C. \ 160 \ miles}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this problem by ratios.

Let x be the missing value.

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{220}{5.5} =\frac{x}{4}[/tex]

Cross multiply.

[tex]5.5 \times x = 220 \times 4[/tex]

[tex]5.5x=880[/tex]

Divide both sides by 5.5.

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{5.5x}{5.5} =\frac{880}{5.5}[/tex]

[tex]x=160[/tex]

Answer:

La pendiente de la recta L es [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

La recta está presentada en su forma implícita, es decir, que está bajo la forma:

[tex]f(x,y) = 0[/tex]

Para determinar la pendiente de la recta, se debe transformarla a su forma explícita, cuya fórmula es:

[tex]y = m \cdot x + b[/tex]

Donde:

[tex]x[/tex] - Variable independiente, adimensional.

[tex]y[/tex] - Variable dependiente, adimensional.

[tex]m[/tex] - Pendiente, adimensional.

[tex]b[/tex] - Intercepto, adimensional.

Entonces:

[tex]3\cdot x - 2\cdot y + 1 = 0[/tex]

[tex]2\cdot y = 3\cdot x +1[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{3}{2}\cdot x + \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Por simple inspección, se determina que la pendiente de la recta L es [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex].

Answer:

(A) The probability that a male spent less than $210 online before deciding to visit a store is 0.0668.

(B) The probability that a male spent between $270 and $300 online before deciding to visit a store is 0.0655.

(C) Ninety percent of the amounts spent online by a male before deciding to visit a store is less than $265.632.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the reports indicate that men spend an average of $240 online before they decide to visit a store. If the spending limit is normally distributed and the standard deviation is $20.

Let X = the spending limit

The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;

                           Z  =  [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where, [tex]\mu[/tex] = mean spending limit = $240

           [tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation = $20

So, X ~ Normal([tex]\mu=\$240,\sigma^{2} =\$20^{2}[/tex])

(A) The probability that a male spent less than $210 online before deciding to visit a store is given by = P(X < $210)

     P(X < $210) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{\$210-\$240}{\$20}[/tex] ) = P(Z < -1.50) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 1.50)

                                                            = 1 - 0.9332 = 0.0668

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.50 in the z table which has an area of 0.9332.

(B) The probability that a male spent between $270 and $300 online before deciding to visit a store is given by = P($270 < X < $300)

     P($270 < X < $300) = P(X < $300) - P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] $270)

     P(X < $300) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{\$300-\$240}{\$20}[/tex] ) = P(Z < 3) = 0.9987

     P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] $270) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] [tex]\frac{\$270-\$240}{\$20}[/tex] ) = P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 1.50) = 0.9332

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 3 and x = 1.50 in the z table which has an area of 0.9987 and 0.9332 respectively.

Therefore, P($270 < X < $300) = 0.9987 - 0.9332 = 0.0655.

(C) Now, we have to find ninety percent of the amounts spent online by a male before deciding to visit a store is less than what value, that is;

         P(X < x) = 0.90     {where x is the required value}

         P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{x-\$240}{\$20}[/tex] ) = 0.90

         P(Z < [tex]\frac{x-\$240}{\$20}[/tex] ) = 0.90

In the z table, the critical value of z that represents the bottom 90% of the area is given as 1.2816, i.e;

                     [tex]\frac{x-\$240}{\$20}=1.2816[/tex]

                     [tex]x-240=1.2816\times 20[/tex]

                     [tex]x=240 + 25.632[/tex]

                     x = 265.632

Hence, Ninety percent of the amounts spent online by a male before deciding to visit a store is less than $265.632.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total surface of the cardboard box is expressed as S = 2LW + 2WH + 2LH where L is the length of the box, W is the width and H is the height of the box. Since the cardboard box is without a lid, then the total surface area will be expressed as;

S  = lw+2wh+2lh ... 1

Given the volume V = lwh = 4ft³ ... 2

From equation 2;

h = 4/lw

Substituting into r[equation 1;

S = lw + 2w(4/lw)+ 2l(4/lw)

S = lw+8/l+8/w

Differentiating the resulting equation with respect to w and l will give;

dS/dw = l + (-8w⁻²)

dS/dw = l - 8/w²

Similarly,

dS/dl = w  + (-8l⁻²)

dS/dw = w - 8/l²

At turning point, ds/dw = 0 and ds/dl = 0

l - 8/w² = 0 and w - 8/l² = 0

l = 8/w²  and w =8/l²

l = 8/(8/l² )²

l = 8/(64/I⁴)

l = 8*l⁴/64

l = l⁴/8

8l = l⁴

l³ = 8

l = ∛8

l = 2

Hence the length of the box is 2 feet

Substituting l = 2 into the function l = 8/w² to get the eidth w

2 = 8/w²

1 = 4/w²

w² = 4

w = 2 ft

width of the cardboard is 2 ft

Since Volume = lwh

4 = 2(2)h

4 = 4h

h = 1 ft

Height of the cardboard is 1 ft

The dimensions of the box that requires the least amount of cardboard is 2ft by 2ft by 1 ft

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = systolic blood pressure measurements.

It is provided that, [tex]X\sim N(\mu=80,\sigma^{2}=3^{2})[/tex].

(a)

Compute the percentage of measurements that are between 71 and 89 as follows:

[tex]P(71<X<89)=P(\frac{71-80}{3}<\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{89-80}{3})[/tex]

                        [tex]=P(-3<Z<3)\\=P(Z<3)-P(Z<-3)\\=0.99865-0.00135\\=0.9973[/tex]

The percentage is, 0.9973 × 100 = 99.73%.

Thus, the percentage of measurements that are between 71 and 89 is 99.73%.

(b)

Compute the probability that a person's blood systolic pressure measures more than 89 as follows:

[tex]P(X>89)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{89-80}{3})[/tex]

                [tex]=P(Z>3)\\=1-P(Z<3)\\=1-0.99865\\=0.00135\\\approx 0.0014[/tex]

Thus, the probability that a person's blood systolic pressure measures more than 89 is 0.0014.

(c)

Compute the probability that a person's blood systolic pressure being at most 75 as follows:

Apply continuity correction:

[tex]P(X\leq 75)=P(X<75-0.5)[/tex]

                [tex]=P(X<74.5)\\\\=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{74.5-80}{3})\\\\=P(Z<-1.83)\\\\=0.03362\\\\\approx 0.034[/tex]

Thus, the probability that a person's blood systolic pressure being at most 75 is 0.034.

(d)

Let x be the blood pressure required.

Then,

P (X < x) = 0.15

⇒ P (Z < z) = 0.15

⇒ z = -1.04

Compute the value of x as follows:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\-1.04=\frac{x-80}{3}\\\\x=80-(1.04\times3)\\\\x=76.88\\\\x\approx 76.9[/tex]

Thus, the 15% of patients are expected to have a blood pressure below 76.9.

(e)

A z-score more than 2 or less than -2 are considered as unusual.

Compute the z score for [tex]\bar x[/tex] as follows:

[tex]z=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

  [tex]=\frac{84-80}{3/\sqrt{3}}\\\\=2.31[/tex]

The z-score for the mean blood pressure measurement of 3 patients is more than 2.

Thus, it would be unusual.

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

First plug in the variable amounts so the expression now looks like this:

(3 × 4 - 12) + 1/2(4 × 6 - 10)

Now, start by solving the multiplication parts first, so it now looks like this:

(12 - 12) + 1/2(24 - 10)

Now, apply the rules of order of operation, so start by solving what's in parenthesis. It should now look like this: (0) + 1/2(14)

Next, solve the multiplication part, so it now looks like this: 0 + 7

Solve that and the answer is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

The scores of the students represented on the dot plot are:

1 dot => 24

3 dots => 26, 26, 26

3 dots => 27, 27, 27

5 dots => 28, 28, 28, 28, 28

3 dots => 30, 30, 30

3 dots => 32, 32, 32

1 dot => 35

Quickly, we can ascertain 3 values from these data points of which we can use to find out which box plot represents the dot plot data.

The minimum score = 24

The maximum score = 35

The median score is the 10th value, which is the middle value of the data point = 28

Therefore, we can conclude that: "box plot titled ACT Score with a minimum of 24, quartile 1 of 27, median of 28, quartile 3 of 30, and maximum of 35".

Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

first, we know that:

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +5 +6 = 21

Now, which two numbers we should take out in order to have 15?

we can remove the 2 and the 4, or the 1 and the 5.

so here we have two possibilities, 2 and 4 are opposite, or 1 and 5 are opposite (they are located in opposite faces of the die)

in the other arrange, we have that removing two numbers we should get 12.

in order to reach 12, we should remove two numbers that add 9 together.

those can be 4 and 5, or 6 and 3.

Now, notice that in the first restriction we have that:

Or 2 and 4 are opposite,

or 1 and 5 are opposite.

So 4 and 5 can never be opposite, so we should have that 6 and 3 are opposite.

Then we can affirm that the value that appears in the face opposite to the 6, is the 3.

Answer:

0.90415

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Arrival rate = mean(μ) = 24

Probability that at most 30 customers arrive in the next hour:

The poisson distribution formula :

P(x, μ) = [(e^-μ) * (μ^x)] / x!

Where :

e = euler's constant

P(x ⩽ 30) = p(0) + p(1) + p(2) +.... + p(30)

Using the online poisson probability distribution calculator :

P(x ⩽ 30, 24) = 0.90415

Therefore there is about 90.4% probability that at most 30 customers will arrive in the next hour.

Answer: -9/5

Step-by-step explanation: To find the slope, we must understand that the slope of a line is defined as the ratio rise/run.

The rise is the vertical direction of the line and the

run is the horizontal direction of the line.

So to start, I am going to pick 2 points on this line.

You want to find points where the line crosses the four corners.

In the diagram, those would be the points (-4, 5) and (1, -4).

Now, we can use slope formula.

Slope = y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁

So we have -4 - 5/1 - -4 which simplifies to -9/5.

So the slope is -9/5.

Answer:

The expression = [tex] \frac{40}{y - 16} [/tex]

Value of the expression = 4 (when y is 20)

Step-by-step explanation:

Quotient simply means the result you get when you divide two numbers. Thus, dividend (the numerator) ÷ divisor (the denominator) = quotient.

From the information given to us here,

the dividend = 40

the divisor = y - 16

The quotient = [tex] \frac{40}{y - 16} [/tex]

There, the expression would be [tex] \frac{40}{y - 16} [/tex]

Find the value of the expression when y = 20.

Plug in 20 for y in the expression and evaluate.

[tex] \frac{40}{y - 16} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{40}{20 - 16} [/tex]
