Student Engineers Council at an Indiana college has one student representative from each of the five engineering majors (civil, electrical, industrial, materials, and mechanical). Compute how many ways a president, a vice president, and a secretary can be selected.
Answer:
A president, a vice president, and a secretary can be selected in 60 ways.
Step-by-step explanation:
The order in which the people are chosen is important(first president, second vice president and third secretary), which means that the permutations formula is used to solve this question.
Permutations formula:
The number of possible permutations of x elements from a set of n elements is given by the following formula:
[tex]P_{(n,x)} = \frac{n!}{(n-x)!}[/tex]
In this question:
3 students from a set of 5, so:
[tex]P_{(5,3)} = \frac{5!}{2!} = 5*4*3 = 60[/tex]
A president, a vice president, and a secretary can be selected in 60 ways.
The electric cooperative needs to know the mean household usage of electricity by its non-commercial customers in kWh per day. They would like the estimate to have a maximum error of 0.09 kWh. A previous study found that for an average family the variance is 5.76 kWh and the mean is 16.6 kWh per day. If they are using a 98% level of confidence, how large of a sample is required to estimate the mean usage of electricity
Answer:
A sample of 3851 is required.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that to find our 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 .
That is z with a pvalue of , 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.
Variance is 5.76 kWh
This means that [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{5.76} = 2.4[/tex]
They would like the estimate to have a maximum error of 0.09 kWh. How large of a sample is required to estimate the mean usage of electricity?
This is n for which M = 0.09. So
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.09 = 2.327\frac{2.4}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.09\sqrt{n} = 2.327*2.4[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.327*2.4}{0.09}[/tex]
[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{2.327*2.4}{0.09})^2[/tex]
[tex]n = 3850.6[/tex]
Rounding up:
A sample of 3851 is required.

the arrows from the picture tells us that TV is parallel to RS
since TS is a transversal that cuts the 2 parallel lines TV and RS than ∠S =x
(alternate interior angles)
sum of angles in a Δ is 180° so x+x+2x = 180°, 4x =180°, x= 45°
2x = 45*2 = 90°
Triangles P Q R and S T U are shown. Angles P R Q and T S U are right angles. The length of P Q is 20, the length of Q R is 16, and the length of P R is 12. The length of S T is 30, the length of T U is 34, and the length of S U is 16.

∠P
∠Q
∠T
∠U
Answer:
[tex]\angle P[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given

The function ƒ(x) = (x − 1)^2 + 5 is not one-to-one. Find a portion of the domain where the function is one-to-one and find an inverse function.
The restricted domain for ƒ is ?
Answer:
f(x)=(x-1)^2+5 with domain x>1 and range y>5 has inverse g(x)=sqrt(x-5)+1 with domain x>5 and range y>1.
Step-by-step explanation:
The function is a parabola when graphed. It is in vertex form f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k where (h,k) is vertex and a tells us if it's reflected or not or if it's stretched. The thing we need to notice is the vertex because if we cut the graph with a vertical line here the curve will be one to one. So the vertex is (1,5). Let's restrict the domain so x >1.
* if x>1, then x-1>0.
* Also since the parabola opens up, then y>5.
So let's solve y=(x-1)^2+5 for x.
Subtract 5 on both sides:
y-5=(x-1)^2
Take square root of both sides:
Plus/minus sqrt(y-5)=x-1
We want x-1>0:
Sqrt(y-5)=x-1
Add 1 on both sides:
Sqrt(y-5)+1=x
Swap x and y:
Sqrt(x-5)+1=y
x>5
y>1

Each statement describes a transformation of the graph of y=x. Which statement correctly describes the graph of y= x - 13?
OA. It is the graph of y= x translated 13 units to the right.
OB. It is the graph of y=xwhere the slope is decreased by 13.
It is the graph of y= x translated 13 units to the left.
OD. It is the graph of y= x translated 13 units up.
ОС.
minus sign ironically makes it go to the right
because the function crosses the y axis at -13
It is the graph of y = x translated 13 units down is the statement describes a transformation of the graph of y=x.
What is Graph?Graph is a mathematical representation of a network and it describes the relationship between lines and points.
The equation y = x - 13 represents a transformation of the graph of y = x. To find the type of transformation, we have to compare the two equations and look for changes.
In the equation y = x - 13, we subtract 13 from the value of x.
This means that the graph of y = x is shifted 13 units downwards,
since every point on the graph has 13 subtracted from its y-coordinate.
Hence, It is the graph of y = x translated 13 units down is the statement describes a transformation of the graph of y=x.

Answer:
jhshejwjabsgsgshshsnsjs
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Put the equation into center-radius form.
x² + y² + 8x - 12y + 24 = 0
x² + y² + 8x - 12y = -24
(x²+8x) + (y²-12y) = -24
(x²+8x+4²) + (y²-12y+6²) = 4²+6²-24
(x+4)² + (y-6)² = 28

Verify that the indicated family of functions is a solution of the given differential equation. Assume an appropriate interval I of definition for each solution.
d^2y/ dx^2 − 6 dy/dx + 9y = 0; y = c1e3x + c2xe3x When y = c1e3x + c2xe3x,
y'' - 6y' + 9y = 0
If y = C₁ exp(3x) + C₂ x exp(3x), then
y' = 3C₁ exp(3x) + C₂ (exp(3x) + 3x exp(3x))
y'' = 9C₁ exp(3x) + C₂ (6 exp(3x) + 9x exp(3x))
Substituting these into the DE gives
(9C₁ exp(3x) + C₂ (6 exp(3x) + 9x exp(3x)))
… … … - 6 (3C₁ exp(3x) + C₂ (exp(3x) + 3x exp(3x)))
… … … + 9 (C₁ exp(3x) + C₂ x exp(3x))

… … … - 18C₁ exp(3x) - 6C₂ (exp(3x) - 18x exp(3x))
… … … + 9C₁ exp(3x) + 9C₂ x exp(3x)

Two workers finished a job in 12 days. How long would it take each worker to do the job by himself if one of the workers needs 10 more days to finish the job than the other worker
Two workers finished a job in 7.5 days.
How long would it take each worker to do the job by himself if one of the workers needs 8 more days to finish the job than the other worker?
let t = time required by one worker to complete the job alone
then
(t+8) = time required by the other worker (shirker)
let the completed job = 1
A typical shared work equation
7.5%2Ft + 7.5%2F%28%28t%2B8%29%29 = 1
multiply by t(t+8), cancel the denominators, and you have
7.5(t+8) + 7.5t = t(t+8)
7.5t + 60 + 7.5t = t^2 + 8t
15t + 60 = t^2 + 8t
form a quadratic equation on the right
0 = t^2 + 8t - 15t - 60
t^2 - 7t - 60 = 0
Factor easily to
(t-12) (t+5) = 0
the positive solution is all we want here
t = 12 days, the first guy working alone
then
the shirker would struggle thru the job in 20 days.

Question: Describe how to eliminate the parameter to change from parametric to rectangular form. How does this ability help us with graphing parametric equations?
Answer:
rectangular equation, or an equation in rectangular form is an equation composed of variables like xx and yy which can be graphed on a regular Cartesian plane. For example y=4x+3y=4x+3 is a rectangular equation.
A curve in the plane is said to be parameterized if the set of coordinates on the curve, (x,y)(x,y) , are represented as functions of a variable tt .
x=f(t)y=g(t)x=f(t)y=g(t)

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
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]
Subtraction between normal variables:
When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.
Men:
98 out of 200, so:
[tex]p_M = \frac{98}{200} = 0.49[/tex]
[tex]s_M = \sqrt{\frac{0.49*0.51}{200}} = 0.0353[/tex]
Women:
72 out of 200, so:
[tex]p_W = \frac{72}{200} = 0.36[/tex]
[tex]s_W = \sqrt{\frac{0.36*0.64}{200}} = 0.0339[/tex]
a. State the hypothesis test in terms of the population proportion of men and the population proportion of women.
At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion are similar, that is, if the subtraction of the proportions is 0, so:
[tex]H_0: p_M - p_W = 0[/tex]
At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion of men is greater, that is, the subtraction is greater than 0, so:
[tex]H_1: p_M - p_W > 0[/tex]
b. What is the sample proportion for men? For women?
For men is of 0.49 and for women is of 0.36.
c. Use α= 0.01 level of significance. What is the p-value and what is your conclusion?
From the sample, we have that:
[tex]X = p_M - p_W = 0.49 - 0.36 = 0.13[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{s_M^2+s_W^2} = \sqrt{0.0353^2 + 0.0339^2} = 0.0489[/tex]
The test statistic is:
[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, and s is the standard error, so:
[tex]z = \frac{0.13 - 0}{0.0489}[/tex]
[tex]z = 2.66[/tex]
P-value of the test and decision:
The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a difference above 0.13, which is the p-value of z = 2.66.
Looking at the z-table, z = 2.66 has a p-value of 0.9961.
1 - 0.9961 = 0.0039.
The p-value of the test is 0.0039 < 0.01, which means that the results are statistically significant so that you can conclude a greater proportion of men expect to get a raise or a promotion this year.
