Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Kelvin did not skied without falling more than twice as long as anyone else in his family.

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality representing the event where Kelvin skied without falling more than twice as long as anyone else in his family is:

[tex]2f<223[/tex]

Here 223 is the time for Kelvin.

Check for Lori as follows:

[tex]2f<223[/tex]

[tex]2\times 55=110<223[/tex]

Kelvin skied without falling more than twice as long as Lori.

Check for Vanessa as follows:

[tex]2f<223[/tex]

[tex]2\times 265=530>223[/tex]

Kelvin skied without falling less than twice as long as Vanessa.

Check for Devon as follows:

[tex]2f<223[/tex]

[tex]2\times 172=344>223[/tex]

Kelvin skied without falling less than twice as long as Devon.

Check for Celia as follows:

[tex]2f<223[/tex]

[tex]2\times 112=224>223[/tex]

Kelvin skied without falling less than twice as long as Celia.

Check for Arnold as follows:

[tex]2f<223[/tex]

[tex]2\times 356=712>223[/tex]

Kelvin skied without falling less than twice as long as Arnold.

Thus, Kelvin did not skied without falling more than twice as long as anyone else in his family.

Answer 2

Answer:

Yes, Kevin skied 2x as long as Lori.

Step-by-step explanation:

Kevin's time was 223 seconds; Lori's time was 110 seconds.

110^2 = 220 or 110 multiplied by 2 equals 220 or 110 x 2 = 220 or

110 * 2 = 220

Thus, Kevin indeed, skied twice as long as Lori.

Kelvin Wants To Know Whether He Skied Without Falling More Than Twice As Long As Anyone Else In His Family.

Identify whether the sampling method is simple random, systematic, stratified, cluster, or convenience. Explain.

In a nationwide study of registered voters conducted by The New York Times, 390 people are randomly selected out of those registered as Republicans, 430 people are randomly selected out of those registered as Democrats, and 180 people are randomly selected out of those registered as Independents.

Answers

Answer: stratified

Step-by-step explanation:

In stratified sampling, you divide the population into subgroups, or strata, with similar characteristics, like here we have divided the population into subgroups that depend on their political alignment. This is used when you can expect that the results have a noticeable variation between the different subgroups. Usually, you want to have the same number of population for eac subgroup, but sometimes it is hard for different reasons (not enough people in one subgroup, for example)

In cluster sampling we also use subgroups, but the subgroup itself is the unit of the sampling, while in this case, we are randomly selecting individuals of the given subgroups.

So this would be a "stratified sampling".

Step-by-step explanation:

Cube Area: A = l²

Triangle Area: A = 1/2bh

Step 1: Find area of biggest triangle

A = 1/2(3.5)(2 + 2 + 5)

A = 1.75(9)

A = 15.75

Step 2: Find area of 2nd biggest triangle

A = 1/2(5)(2)

A = 1/2(10)

A = 5

Step 3: Find area of smallest triangle

A = 1/2(2)(2)

A = 1/2(4)

A = 2

Step 4: Find area of cube

A = 2²

A = 4

Step 5: Add all the values together

A = 15.75 + 5 + 2 + 4

A = 20.75 + 2 + 4

A = 22.75 + 4

A = 26.75

Tessa’s employee benefits include family health care coverage. She contributes 18% of the cost. Tessa gets paid biweekly and $108.00 is taken out of each paycheck for family health care coverage. How much does her employer contribute annually for the family coverage? Clearly show your work.

Answers

The answer is $12792

Explanation:

It is known Tessa pays $108.00 to contribute to family coverage every two weeks and this represents 18% of the total payment. This implies the employer pays the 82% missing (100% - 18% = 82%). Additionally, with this information, it is possible to know the amount the employer has to pay every two weeks that represents 82%. The process is shown below:

1. Write the values you know and use x to represent the value you need to find

108 = 18        

  x =   82      

3. Cross multiply

x 18 = 8856

4. Find  the value of x by solving this simple equation

x = 8856 ÷ 18

x = 492 - Amount the employer pays every two weeks for Tessa's family coverage

Now that we know the money the employer pays every two weeks, it is possible to calculate the annual amount of money. Follow the process below.

1. Consider one year has a total of 52 weeks and divide this number of weeks by 2 because the payment for the family coverage occurs every 2 weeks

52 ÷ 2 = 26

2. Finally, multiply the money paid by the employer every two weeks by 26

26 weeks x $492 = $12792- This is the total the employer pays annually

Records indicate that x years after 2008, the average property tax on a three bedroom home in a certain community was T(x) =20x^2+40x+600 dollars.

Required:
a. At what rate was the property tax increasing with respect to time in 2008?
b. By how much did the tax change between the years 2008 and 2012?

Answers

Answer:

a) 40 dollars

b) 480 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the average property tax on a three bedroom home in a certain community modelled by the equation T(x) =20x²+40x+600, the rate at which the property tax is increasing with respect to time in 2008 can be derived by solving for the function T'(x) at x=0

T'(x) = 2(20)x¹ + 40x° + 0

T'(x) = 40x+40

At x = 0,

T'(0) = 40(0)+40

T'(0) = 40

Hence the property tax was increasing at a rate of 40dollars with respect to the initial year (2008).

b) There are 4 years between 2008 and 2012. To know how much that the tax change between the years 2008 and 2012, we will find T(4) - T(0)

Given T(x) =20x²+40x+600

T(4) =20(4)²+40(4)+600

T(4) = 320+160+600

T(4) = 1080 dollars

Also T(0) =20(0)²+40(0)+600

T(0) = 0+0+600

T(0)= 600 dollars

T(4) - T(0) = 1080 - 600

T(4) - T(0) = 480 dollars

Hence, the tax has changed by $480 between 2008 and 2012

c) F2 = F1.
d) F2 = -F1.
e) 5F2 = F1.

Answers

Answer:

d) F2 = -F1.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Coulomb's law of forces on electrostatic charges, the force of attraction is proportional to the product of their charges, and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart.

What this law means is that both particles will experience an equal amount of force on them, due to the presence of the other particle. This force is not just as a result of their individual charges, but as a result of the product of their charges. Also, the force is a vector quantity that must have a direction alongside its magnitude, and the force on the two particles will always act in opposite direction, be it repulsive or attractive.

Answer: Rational, integer, whole, natural, real

So basically everything but irrational

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

Explanation:

109 is a rational number because 109 = 109/1. Any rational number is a fraction of two integers. Because of this, it cannot be irrational as "irrational" means "not rational".

An integer is anything that does not have a fractional or decimal part. So it involves the set of positive and negative whole numbers, and zero as well. So we can see that 109 is an integer.

A whole number is very similar to an integer, but we're referring to the set {0, 1, 2, 3, ..} meaning we ignore the negative integers. This makes 109 a whole number as well.

A natural number is from the set {1, 2, 3, ...}. We've kicked 0 out from the set of whole numbers. This is the set of counting numbers. So 109 is also a natural number.

A real number is any number you have encountered so far assuming your teacher has not introduced complex and imaginary numbers yet. Effectively a real number is any number that can be written as decimal. This makes 109 to be a real number.

How to graph the line y=4/3x

Answers

Answer:

make a table of values

Step-by-step explanation:

then plot using those values

The required graph has been attached which represents the line y = 4/3x

What is a graph?

A graph can be defined as a pictorial representation or a diagram that represents data or values.

We have been given the equation of a line below as:

y = 4/3x

Rewrite in slope-intercept form.

y = (4/3)x

Use the slope-intercept form to discover the slope and y-intercept.

Here the slope is 4/3 and  y-intercept = (0, 0)

Any line can be graphed using two points. Select two x values, and plug them into the equation to find the corresponding y values.

When substitute the value of x = 0, then the value of y = 0, and When substitute the value of x = 3, then the value of y = -4,

Hence, the graph represents the line y = 4/3x

Therefore, the required graph of the line y=4/3x will be shown in the as attached file.

D. x= 9​

Answers

Answer:

X+9=24

Or,x=24-9

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

B. x=15

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the solution to the equation, we must get x by itself on one side of the equation.

[tex]x+9=24[/tex]

9 is being added to x. The inverse of addition is subtraction. Subtract 9 from both sides of the equation.

[tex]x+9-9=24-9[/tex]

[tex]x=24-9[/tex]

[tex]x=15[/tex]

Let's check our solution. Plug 15 in for x.

[tex]x+9=24 (x=15)[/tex]

[tex]15+9=24[/tex]

[tex]24=24[/tex]

This checks out, so we know our solution is correct. The answer is B. x=15

The radius of a right circular cylinder is increasing at the rate of 7 in./sec, while the height is decreasing at the rate of 6 in./sec. At what rate is the volume of the cylinder changing when the radius is 20 in. and the height is 16 in.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\approx \bold{6544\ in^3/sec}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Rate of change of radius of cylinder:

[tex]\dfrac{dr}{dt} = +7\ in/sec[/tex]

(This is increasing rate so positive)

Rate of change of height of cylinder:

[tex]\dfrac{dh}{dt} = -6\ in/sec[/tex]

(This is decreasing rate so negative)

To find:

Rate of change of volume when r = 20 inches and h = 16 inches.

Solution:

First of all, let us have a look at the formula for Volume:

[tex]V = \pi r^2h[/tex]

Differentiating it w.r.to 't':

[tex]\dfrac{dV}{dt} = \dfrac{d}{dt}(\pi r^2h)[/tex]

Let us have a look at the formula:

[tex]1.\ \dfrac{d}{dx} (C.f(x)) = C\dfrac{d(f(x))}{dx} \ \ \ (\text{C is a constant})\\2.\ \dfrac{d}{dx} (f(x).g(x)) = f(x)\dfrac{d}{dx} (g(x))+g(x)\dfrac{d}{dx} (f(x))[/tex]

[tex]3.\ \dfrac{dx^n}{dx} = nx^{n-1}[/tex]

Applying the two formula for the above differentiation:

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{dV}{dt} = \pi\dfrac{d}{dt}( r^2h)\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dV}{dt} = \pi h\dfrac{d }{dt}( r^2)+\pi r^2\dfrac{dh }{dt}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dV}{dt} = \pi h\times 2r \dfrac{dr }{dt}+\pi r^2\dfrac{dh }{dt}[/tex]

Now, putting the values:

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{dV}{dt} = \pi \times 16\times 2\times 20 \times 7+\pi\times 20^2\times (-6)\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dV}{dt} = 22 \times 16\times 2\times 20 +3.14\times 400\times (-6)\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dV}{dt} = 14080 -7536\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dV}{dt} \approx \bold{6544\ in^3/sec}[/tex]

So, the answer is: [tex]\approx \bold{6544\ in^3/sec}[/tex]

  19 -13 = 6, 37 -19 = 18, 91 -37 = 54, 253 -91 = 162

The second differences are not constant:

  18 -6 = 12, 54 -18 = 36, 162 -54 = 108

But, we notice that both the first and second differences have a common ratio. This is characteristic of an exponential function. The common ratio is 18/6 = 3, so the parent function is 3^x.

Answers

Answer:

ok as we know 15 is a whole number by itself and 3/8 is the decimal part

so we know it is 15. something

that something is 3/8 to find decimal you do 3/8

3/8 is = .375

so 15.375 is the answer

hope it helps

A waiter earns $11.00 an hour and approximately 10% of what he serves in a shift. If he works a 6 hour shift and takes $425 in orders, his total earnings for the six hours would be:


Answers

Answer:

108.50

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the wages

11* 6 = 66 dollars

Then figure the commission

10% of 425

.10 * 425

42.5

Add the two amounts together

42.5+66

Sarah has $30,000 in her bank account today. Her grand-father has opened this account for her 15 years ago when she was born. Calculate the money that was deposited in the account 15 years ago if money has earned 3.5% p.a. compounded monthly through all these years.

Answers

Answer:

Deposit value(P) = $17,760 (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Future value (F) = $30,000

Number of Year (n) = 15 year = 15 × 12 = 180 month

rate of interest (r) = 3.5% = 0.035 / 12 = 0.0029167

Find:

Deposit value(P)

Computation:

[tex]A = P(1+r)^n\\\\ 30000 = P(1+0.0029167)^{180} \\\\ 30000 = P(1.68917) \\\\ P = 17760.2018[/tex]

Deposit value(P) = $17,760 (Approx)

You are an assistant director of the alumni association at a local university. You attend a presentation given by the university’s research director and one of the topics discussed is what undergraduates do after they matriculate. More specifically, you learn that in the year 2018, a random sample of 216 undergraduates was surveyed and 54 of them (25%) decided to continue school to pursue another degree, and that was up two percentage points from the prior year. The Dean of the College of Business asks the research director if that is a statistically significant increase. The research director says she isn’t sure, but she will have her analyst follow up. You notice in the footnotes of the presentation the sample size in the year of 2017 was 200 undergraduates, and that 46 of them continued their education to pursue another degree.

There is a short break in the meeting. Take this opportunity to answer the dean’s question using a confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of students who continued their education in 2018 and 2017. (Use 95% confidence level and note that the university has about 10,000 undergraduate students).

Answers

Answer:

(0.102, -0.062)

Step-by-step explanation:

sample size in 2018 = n1 = 216

sample size in 2017 = n2 = 200

number of people who went for another degree in 2018 = x1 = 54

number of people who went for another degree in 2017 = x2 = 46

p1 = x1/n1 = 0.25

p2 = x2/n2 = 0.23

At 95% confidence level, z critical = 1.96

now we have to solve for the confidence interval =

[tex]p1 -p2 ± z*\sqrt{((1-p1)*p1)/n1 + ((1-p2)*p2/n2}[/tex]

[tex]0.25 -0.23 ± 1.96*\sqrt{((1 - 0.25) * 0.25)/216 + ((1 - 0.23) *0.23/200}[/tex]

= 0.02 ± 1.96 * 0.042

= 0.02 + 0.082 = 0.102

= 0.02 - 0.082 = -0.062

There is 95% confidence that there is a difference that lies between  - 0.062 and 0.102 on the proportion of students who continued their education in the years, 2017 and 2018.

There is no significant difference between the two.
