Answer:
Median
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the median to measure central tendency, rather than the mean, is better for a skewed data set.
Since a skewed data set will have either very high or low extreme data points, the mean will be less representative and accurate when measuring central tendency.
Using the median will measure this better because it is not as vulnerable as the mean when there are extreme data points.
So, the answer is the median.
Lost-time accidents occur in a company at a mean rate of 0.8 per day. What is the probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2
Answer:
0.01375 = 1.375% probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the mean during the interval, which means that the Poisson distribution is used.
Poisson distribution:
In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
In which
x is the number of sucesses
e = 2.71828 is the Euler number
[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.
Lost-time accidents occur in a company at a mean rate of 0.8 per day.
This means that [tex]\mu = 0.8n[/tex], in which n is the number of days.
10 days:
This means that [tex]n = 10, \mu = 0.8(10) = 8[/tex]
What is the probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2?
This is:
[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-8}*8^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.00034[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-8}*8^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.00268[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-8}*8^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.01073[/tex]
So
[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.00034 + 0.00268 + 0.01073 = 0.01375[/tex]
0.01375 = 1.375% probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2.

A graph of 2 functions is shown below. graph of function f of x equals negative 11 by 3 multiplied by x plus 11 by 3 and graph of function g of x equals x cubed plus 2 multiplied by x squared minus x minus 2 Which of the following is a solution for f(x) = g(x)? (2 points) x = −2 x = 1 x = 0 x = −1
9514 1404 393
Answer:
(b) x = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
A graph shows the solution to f(x) = g(x) is x = 1.
__
We want to solve ...
g(x) -f(x) = 0
x^3 +2x^2 -x -2 -(-11/3x +11/3) = 0
x^2(x +2) -1(x +2) +11/3(x -1) = 0 . . . . . factor first terms by grouping
(x^2 -1)(x +2) +11/3(x -1) = 0 . . . . . . the difference of squares can be factored
(x -1)(x +1)(x +2) +(x -1)(11/3) = 0 . . . . we see (x-1) is a common factor
(x -1)(x^2 +3x +2 +11/3) = 0
The zero product rule tells us this will be true when x-1 = 0, or x = 1.
__
The discriminant of the quadratic factor is ...
b^2 -4ac = 3^2 -4(1)(17/3) = 9 -68/3 = -41/3
This is less than zero, so any other solutions are complex.

Based on your data, what is the experimental probability that the family has two dogs or
two cats?
5
If the family has three pets, what is the theoretical probability that they have three dogs or
three cats?
How could you change the simulation to generate data for three pets
6
let dogs be heads. Let cats be tails. A coin has two sides, in which you are flipping two of them. Note that there can be the possible outcomes
h-h, h-t, t-h, t-t.
How this affects the possibility of two dogs & two cats. Note that there are 1/2 a chance of getting those two (with the others being one of each), which means that out of 4 chances, 2 are allowed.
2/4 = 1/2
50% is your answer
Heads represents cats and tails represents dogs. There is two coins because we are checking the probability of two pets. You have to do the experiment to get your set of data, once you get your set of data, you will be able to divide it into the probability for cats or dogs. To change the simulation to generate data for 3 pets, simply add a new coin and category for the new pet.
Hope this helps you out!
The population, P(t), in millions, of a country, in year t, is given by the formula P(t) = 24 + 0.4t. What are the values of the population for t = 10, 20,
and 30?
Answer:
B. 28, 32, 36 millions
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
P(t) = 24 + 0.4t
Where,
P(t) = population in millions
t = number of years
✔️Value of the population when t = 10:
Plug in t = 10 into P(t) = 24 + 0.4t
P(t) = 24 + 0.4(10)
P(t) = 24 + 4
P(t) = 28 million
✔️Value of the population when t = 20:
Plug in t = 20 into P(t) = 24 + 0.4t
P(t) = 24 + 0.4(20)
P(t) = 24 + 8
P(t) = 32 million
✔️Value of the population when t = 30:
Plug in t = 30 into P(t) = 24 + 0.4t
P(t) = 24 + 0.4(30)
P(t) = 24 + 12
P(t) = 36 million
AABC-AXYZ. What's the scale factor from
AABC to AXYZ?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
(d) 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
The scale factor is the ratio of lengths of corresponding sides:
XZ/AC = 3/12 = 1/4
_____
Additional comment
I find the wording of the question a bit ambiguous. To transform ΔABC to ΔXYZ, every linear dimension of ΔABC is multiplied by 1/4. This is the sense of "ΔABC to ΔXYZ" that is used in the above answer.
On the other hand, one of the ways ratios are written is using the word "to," as in "12 to 3". Using this idea, we might interpret the question to be asking for ...
ΔABC to ΔXYZ = AC to XZ = 12 to 3 = 12/3 = 4

Answer: D' = (1, -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
When dilating by a 1/2 you take a point and divide the x and y of the point in half. So D before is (2,-2) and then divide that by a 1/2, which gives us our answer (1, -1).

Write the equation of the piecewise function that is represented by its graph.
IS IT A, B, C, OR D
9514 1404 393
Answer:
a) domain bounds are -1 ≤ x ≤ 1, x > 1
Step-by-step explanation:
In considering the definition of any piecewise function, the domain descriptions in the function definition must match the pieces shown in the graph.
Here, the right segment has no upper bound, so x > 1 is an appropriate description of its domain.
The left segment has the points at x=-1 and x=1 included, so the appropriate domain description for that is -1 ≤ x ≤ 1.
The one answer choice that combines these domain descriptions is ...
[tex]\displaystyle f(x)=\begin{cases}x^2,&\text{if }-\!1\le x\le1\\\sqrt{x},&\text{if }x>1\end{cases}[/tex]

Last year Diana sold 800 necklaces. This year she sold 1080 necklaces. what is the percentage increase of necklaces she sold?
Answer:
13.5% is the increase in percentage
Answer:
74%
Step-by-step explanation:
To get the answer, divide 800 by 1080, and you will get a decimal. That decimal is 0.74074074074. Then, move the decimal point two times two the right, so you should have 074.074074074. Ignore everything after the decimal point as well as the 0 before the decimal point, and if done correctly, it should be 74%.
So, the final answer would be 74%.

Hari earns Rs 4300 per month. He spends 80% from his income. How much amount does he save in a year?
Answer:
Hari saves $ 10,320 in a year.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Hari earns $ 4300 per month, and he spends 80% from his income, to determine how much amount does he save in a year, the following calculation must be performed:
100 - 80 = 20
4300 x 0.20 x 12 = X
860 x 12 = X
10320 = X
Therefore, Hari saves $ 10,320 in a year.

Write the point-slope form of an equation of the line through the points (-2, 6) and (3,-2).
Answer:
[tex]y-6=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x+2)[/tex]
OR
[tex]y+2=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-3)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there!
Point-slope form: [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex] where [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] is a point and [tex]m[/tex] is the slope
1) Determine the slope
[tex]m=\frac{\displaystyle y_2-y_1}{\displaystyle x_2-x_2}[/tex] where two given points are [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex]
Plug in the given points (-2, 6) and (3,-2):
[tex]m=\frac{\displaystyle -2-6}{\displaystyle 3-(-2)}\\\\m=\frac{\displaystyle -8}{\displaystyle 3+2}\\\\m=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}[/tex]
Therefore, the slope of the line is [tex]-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}[/tex]. Plug this into [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]:
[tex]y-y_1=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-x_1)[/tex]
2) Plug in a point [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex]
[tex]y-y_1=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-x_1)[/tex]
We're given two points, (-2, 6) and (3,-2), so there are two ways we can write this equation:
[tex]y-6=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-(-2))\\\\y-6=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x+2)[/tex]
OR
[tex]y-(-2)=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-3)\\y+2=-\frac{\displaystyle 8}{\displaystyle 5}(x-3)[/tex]

The triangles are similar.
What is the value of x?
Enter your answer in the box.
x =
Answer:
x=12
Step-by-step explanation:
each side of the smaller triangle, we can multiply by 4 to get the side of the larger triangle
ex: 8*4=32 and 17*4=68
so we can assume that 15*4= 4x+12
60=4x+12
48=4x
x=12
Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles are similar so we can use ratios
4x+12 32
------- = ------------
15 8
Using cross products
(4x+12) *8 = 15 * 32
(4x+12) *8 = 480
Divide each side by 8
(4x+12) *8/8 = 480/8
4x+12 = 60
Subtract 12 from each side
4x+12 -12 = 60-12
4x = 48
Divide by 4
4x/4 = 48/4
x = 12
A market surveyor wishes to know how many energy drinks teenagers drink each week. They want to construct a 98% confidence interval for the mean and are assuming that the population standard deviation for the number of energy drinks consumed each week is 1.1. The study found that for a sample of 1027 teenagers the mean number of energy drinks consumed per week is 5.9. Construct the desired confidence interval. Round your answers to one decimal place.
Answer:
The 98% confidence interval for the mean number of energy drinks consumed per week by teenagers is (5.8, 6).
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:
[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.01[/tex]
Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].
That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.01 = 0.99[/tex], so Z = 2.327.
Now, find the margin of error M as such
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
[tex]M = 2.327\frac{1.1}{\sqrt{1027}} = 0.1[/tex]
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 5.9 - 0.1 = 5.8 drinks per week.
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 5.9 + 0.1 = 6 drinks per week.
The 98% confidence interval for the mean number of energy drinks consumed per week by teenagers is (5.8, 6).
Solve for x and y…….
The shapes are the same size. Match the sides.
3x -1 = 17
Add 1 to both sides:
3x = 18
Divide both sides by 3:
X = 6
2y = 16
Divide both sides by 2
Y = 8

I think something went wrong with the answer options you provided. and maybe with the problem statement itself.
I see 3 function definitions.
I can tell you what they are and use the provided option phrasing as closely as possible :
h(x) = 0 is a horizontal line (in fact the x-axis)
k(x) = 4x² + 312 is a parabola with the opening upwards
f(x) = x - 1 is a line with positive slope (going from left to right the line goes up)
Last year, the CDC claimed there were 1700 different strains of a virus around the
world. Since then, numbers have increased by 9.7% more than what the scientists
originally estimated. How many strains are estimated currently? Round to the nearest
number.
Answer: 1865
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Claimed strains of virus is 1700
If it is increased by 9.7%
Estimated value can be given by
[tex]\Rightarrow 1700+1700\times 9.7\%\\\Rightarrow 1700(1+0.097)\\\Rightarrow 1700\times 1.097\\\Rightarrow 1864.9\approx 1865[/tex]
Thus, the estimated number is [tex]1865[/tex]
