On vacation, Jocelyn wants to have her hair braided in multiple braids to cover her head. It costs a flat rate of $3, plus $0.85 per braid. She had saved $32. How many braids can she get?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

34 Braids

Step-by-step explanation:

.85 per braid means 1 is 85 cents, 2 is $1.70 and so on.  So normally you would just divide the total amount of money, so for instance if you had $2.55 you would be able to afford 3 braids, since 3 braids cost $2.55.  in fact $2.56, $2.57 aaaaaaaaaaall the way up to $3.39 would be 3 braids, then $3.40 would be 4 braids.

Here though you first pay 3 dollars.  so you need 3 first, then an extra 85 cents to get 1 braid.  2 braids is 3 dollars plus 1.70, 3 braids is 3 + 2.55 4 braids is 3 + 3.40 and so on.

So what you want to do is first take away that 3 dollars you need before the braids, then divide by .85.  for instance $6.40 would get you 4 braids as I showed bcause 3 + 3.40 = 6.40.  now 6.40 - 3 = 3.40 then 3.40 divided by .85 = 4

The problem says we start with$32, so lets do those steps.  first 32 - 3 = 29.  then 29 divided by .85 = 34.11.  well it's not  whole number so lets try something.  34 braids would be 3 + .85*34 = 31.90 and 35 braids would be 32.75  So 31.90, 31.91 aaaaaaaaall the way up to 32.74 would be 34 braids then 32.75 would be 35 braids.  well, $32 is in that in between space, so it is 34 braids.

When I did 32 - 3 = 29.  then 29 divided by .85 = 34.11 that 34.11 does actually tell us we wouldn't get to 35, I just wanted to make it very clear.  so the answer is 34 braids.

In selecting a sulfur concrete for roadway construction in regions that experience heavy frost, it is important that the chosen concrete has a low value of ther- mal conductivity in order to minimize subsequent damage due to changing temperatures. Suppose two types of concrete, a graded aggregate and a no-fines aggregate, are being considered for a certain road. The table below summarizes data on thermal conductivity from an experiment carried out to compare the two types of concrete.

Assume that the conductivity for each sample of concrete is independent of that of all the others. Our interest is in determining if the mean conductivity for the graded concrete is significantly different than the mean conductivity for the no-fines concrete?

a. Formulate the above in terms of a hypothesis testing problem.
b. Give the test statistic and its reference distribution (under the null hypothesis).

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - In selecting a sulfur concrete for roadway construction in regions that experience heavy frost, it is important that the chosen concrete has a low value of thermal conductivity in order to minimize subsequent damage due to changing temperatures. Suppose two types of concrete, a graded aggregate and a no-fines aggregate, are being considered for a certain road. The table below summarizes data on thermal conductivity from an experiment carried out to compare the two types of concrete.

Type            ni                xi                  si

Graded       42           0.486            0.187

No-fines      42           0.359           0.158

To find - a. Formulate the above in terms of a hypothesis testing problem.

b. Give the test statistic and its reference distribution (under the null hypothesis).

c. Report the p-value of the test statistic and use it to assess the evidence that this sample provides on the scientific question of difference in mean conductivity of the two materials at the 5% level of significance.

Proof -

a.)

Hypothesis testing problem :

H0 : There is significant difference between mean conductivity for the graded concrete and mean conductivity for the no fines concrete.

H1 : There is no significant difference between mean conductivity for the graded concrete and mean conductivity for the no fines concrete.

b)

Test statistic :

[tex]Z = \frac{x_{1} - x_{2} }{\sqrt{\frac{s_{1} ^{2} }{n_{1}} + \frac{s_{2}^{2} }{n_{2}} } }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.486 - 0.359 }{\sqrt{\frac{0.03496 }{42} + \frac{0.02496 }{42} } }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.127 }{\sqrt{0.001468}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.127 }{0.0377}[/tex]

⇒Z(cal) = 3.3687

Z(tab) = 1.96

As Z (cal) > Z(tab)

So, we reject H0 at 5% Level of significance

p-value = 0.99962

Hence

There is significant difference in mean conductivity at the two materials.

Yah, i plugged this into m a t h w a y

(all of ur questions pretty much can use this app or website)

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2x² + 16x - 8 = 0 ( divide through by 2 )

x² + 8x - 4 = 0 ( add 4 to both sides )

x² + 8x = 4

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(4)x + 16 = 4 + 16

(x + 4)² = 20 ( take the square root of both sides )

x + 4 = ± [tex]\sqrt{20}[/tex] = ± [tex]\sqrt{4(5)}[/tex] = ± 2[tex]\sqrt{5}[/tex] ( subtract 4 from both sides )

x = - 4 ± 2[tex]\sqrt{5}[/tex] → D

Answers

Option (E) 7x^2/(6x-10) is the reduced form of the rational expression is the correct answer.

What is a rational expression?

A rational expression is the ratio of two polynomials. It looks like fractions that have variables in their denominators. A rational expression is considered simplified if there are no common factors in its numerator and denominator.

For the given situation,

The rational expression is

7x²/(2x + 6) ÷ (3х - 5)/(x +3)

⇒ [tex]\frac{\frac{7x^{2} }{2x+6} }{\frac{3x-5}{x+3} }[/tex]

In conversion of division to multiplication, we need to change the division sign to multiplication sign and reciprocal the rational expression for simplification.

⇒ [tex](\frac{7x^{2} }{2x+6} )(\frac{x+3}{3x-5} )[/tex]

⇒ [tex](\frac{7x^{2} }{2(x+3)} )(\frac{x+3}{3x-5} )[/tex]

⇒ [tex](\frac{7x^{2} }{2(1)} )(\frac{1}{3x-5} )[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\frac{7x^{2} }{6x-10}[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that option (E) 7x^2/(6x-10) is the reduced form of the rational expression is the correct answer.

The given figure has a rotation of 90° counterclockwise, then translation 3 down.

What is translation?

A translation moves a shape left, right, up, or down without turning it. The translated (or picture) shapes appear to be the same size as the original shape, showing that they are congruent. They've just moved in one or more directions.

The two figures given in the image are plotted on the coordinate plane having axis x and y.

From the figure it is observed that the given figure has a rotation of 90° counterclockwise, then translation 3 down.

Therefore, the given figure has a rotation of 90° counterclockwise, then translation 3 down.

Which of the following distributions is the best approximation of the sampling distribution of p?
Each distribution uses the same scale.
Choose 1 answer:
0.22
0.22

Answers

Answer: C 0.22,

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a normal sampling distribution because we expect at least 10 successes and 10 failures per sample

Using the Central Limit Theorem, it is found that the best approximation of the sampling distribution of p is that it is approximately normal, with mean of 0.22 and standard deviation of 0.0586.

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 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]

In this problem:

The proportion is of [tex]p = 0.22[/tex].Samples of 50 students are taken, hence [tex]n = 50[/tex].

Then, [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{0.22(0.78)}{50}} = 0.0586[/tex]

The sampling distribution of p is approximately normal, with mean of 0.22 and standard deviation of 0.0586.
