Answer:

It would be B. 16 centimeters^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The functions are:

[tex]p(x)=\dfrac{1}{x+1}[/tex]

[tex]q(x)=\dfrac{1}{x-1}[/tex]

To find:

The rational expression for [tex]p(x)-q(x)[/tex].

Solution:

We have,

[tex]p(x)=\dfrac{1}{x+1}[/tex]

[tex]q(x)=\dfrac{1}{x-1}[/tex]

Now,

[tex]p(x)-q(x)=\dfrac{1}{x+1}-\dfrac{1}{x-1}[/tex]

[tex]p(x)-q(x)=\dfrac{(x-1)-(x+1)}{(x+1)(x-1)}[/tex]

[tex]p(x)-q(x)=\dfrac{x-1-x-1}{x^2-1^2}[/tex]             [tex][\because a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)][/tex]

[tex]p(x)-q(x)=\dfrac{-2}{x^2-1}[/tex]

Therefore, the required rational expression for [tex]p(x)-q(x)[/tex] is [tex]\dfrac{-2}{x^2-1}[/tex].

Part (a)

If you win $12165, then you really net 12165-35 = 12130 dollars when you consider the ticket fee. So this is the true amount of money you win, or take home at the end of the day. This is before taxes.

Multiply 0.002 with 12,130 to get 0.002*12130 = 24.26

We'll use this later so let A = 24.26

The chances that you don't win are 1 - 0.002 = 0.998 which multiplies with -35 to indicate you lost $35 in playing the game. So we get B = 0.998*(-35) = -34.93

Lastly, add the values of A and B to get the expected value:

A+B = 24.26 + (-34.93) = -10.67 is the expected value.

On average, you expect to lose about $10.67 for any time you play the game.

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

Part (b)

0.125 is the probability of winning so 1-0.125 = 0.875 is the probability of losing.

Let's say you get really unlucky and lose 12 times in a row. Assuming each trial (aka case when you play the game) is independent, this would mean the probability of such an event is (0.875)^12 = 0.2014172, which is approximate.

Subtract that from 1 to get the probability of winning at least once

1 - (0.875)^12 = 1 - 0.2014172 = 0.7985828

which is also approximate. If we rounded to three decimal places, then it would be 0.799; I'm picking three decimals since 0.125 is to three decimal places. Round however you need to if otherwise.

Answer:

[tex]g(x) = 6(2)^{x -8}+ 4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

8 ounces of tomato paste for each cup of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Just divide 48 / 6 to get 8 oz of tomato paste per cup of water.

Hope this helps!

Work Shown:

48 oz of tomato paste = 6 cups of water

48/6 oz of tomato paste = 6/6 cups of water

8 oz of tomato paste = 1 cup of water

In short, we divide both values by 6 so that the "6 cups" becomes "1 cup". We can say the unit rate is 8 oz of tomato paste per cup of water.

Answer:

0.8919 = 89.19% probability of filling a cup between 33 and 35 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

A soft drink machine outputs a mean of 29 ounces per cup. The machine's output is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 4 ounces.

This means that [tex]\mu = 29, \sigma = 4[/tex]

What is the probability of filling a cup between 33 and 35 ounces?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 35 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 33.

X = 35

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{35 - 29}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9332.

X = 33

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{33 - 29}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0413.

0.9332 - 0.0413 = 0.8919

0.8919 = 89.19% probability of filling a cup between 33 and 35 ounces.

Answer:

The number of positive real zeros is 2 or 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(x)=x^5+3x^2-4x+2[/tex]

Required

Number of positive real zeros

Using Descartes rule of signs;

We write out the signs in front of each term;

Sign = + + - +

Count the number of times the sign alternate; i.e. from positive to negative and from negative to positive

From positive to negative, we have: 1 (i.e. + - )

From negative to positive, we have: 1 (i.e. - +)

Add up the count

[tex]count = 1+1[/tex]

[tex]count = 2[/tex]

Hence, the number of positive real zeros is 2 or 0

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Use the five steps of hypothesis testing.

Step 1: The aim of the research is to conduct the five steps of hypothesis testing.

Step 2:

Null hypothesis: H0 u= 4

Population mean: H1 u = 4

Alternate hypothesis: u ≠ 4

Population mean: u ≠ 4

Step 3 and step 4 are attached.

Step 5: Based on the calculation, the calculated value of t is less than the t critical value, therefore, the null hypothesis will be failed to be rejected.

2. Sketch the distributions involved

This has been attached.

3. Explain the logic of what you did to a person who is familiar with hypothesis testing, but knows nothing about t tests of any kind.

Answer:

On average, a player should expect to win $15.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value in an event with outcomes:

x₁, x₂, ..., xₙ

Each with probability:

p₁, ..., pₙ

is given by:

Ev = x₁*p₁ + ... +xₙ*pₙ

In this case we have 3 outcomes:

player wins $75 = x₁

player wins $45 = x₂

player does not win = x₃

Let's find the probabilities of these events.

player wins $75)

Here we must have the 3 coins landing on heads, so there is only one possible outcome to win $75

While the total number of outcomes for tossing 3 coins, is the product between the number of outcomes for each individual event (where the individual events are tossing each individual coin, each one with 2 outcomes)

Then the number total of outcomes is:

C = 2*2*2 = 8

Then the probability of winning $75 is the quotient between the number of outcomes to win (only one) and the total number of outcomes (8)

p₁ = 1/8

Win $45:

This happens if the 3 coins land on tails, so is exactly equal to the case above, and the probability is the same:

p₂ = 1/8

Not wining:

Remember that:

p₁ + p₂ + ... + pₙ = 1

Then for this case, we must have:

p₁ + p₂ + p₃ = 1

1/8 + 1/8 + p₃ = 1

p₃ = 1 - 1/8 - 1/8

p₃ = 6/8

Then the expected value will be:

Ev = $75*1/8 + $45*1/8 + $0*6/8 = $15

On average, a player should expect to win $15.

Answer:

a. best score to guess would be 33

b. Standard deviation simplifies the square root of the mean so makes it closer to 1 has more consistency as the mean of 32 when squared is sqrt 32  is Class A as class a = 4 and is closer to 5.65685425

as 5.65685425^2 = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are comparing two normally-distributed variables on the same measurement scale then yes, you can regard the standard deviation as an indicator of how reliable the mean is--the smaller the standard deviation, the better able you are to "zero in" on the actual population mean.

a. proofs;

We find  32/6 = 5.333 and 32/5 = 6.4 and 6.4 is closer to both sd 4 and 8 than 5.33 is. As 6.4 it is closer to 6

But when we use 33/6 = 5.5 and therefore shows close range 6

therefore the two sd  proves it is slightly high 32 score average for both classes A + B when joined and high 32 = 33 mean when classes A+B are joined or you could say 32/8 = 4 is class B becomes lower tests scores as 32/4 = 8 of class A that has higher test scores.

In this exercise we have to use probability and statistics to organize the students' grades, so we have:

A) best score is  33

B) Class A

In the first part of the exercise we have to analyze the grades of each class, like this:

A)Class A: 32/4

Class B: 32/8

Dividing each of them we have:

[tex]32/4=8 \\32/8=4[/tex]

B) With the information given above, we can say that the best class is A.

Answer:

0.8 = 80% probability that either your aunt or your father will become a city commissioner.

Step-by-step explanation:

The candidates are chosen from the sample without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

In this question:

6 candidates, which means that [tex]N = 6[/tex]

2 are the aunt and father, which means that [tex]k = 2[/tex]

3 are chosen, which means that [tex]n = 3[/tex]

What is the probability that either your aunt or your father will become a city commissioner?

Probability of at least one of them being chosen, which is:

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = h(0,6,3,2) = \frac{C_{2,0}*C_{4,3}}{C_{6,3}} = 0.2[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8[/tex]

0.8 = 80% probability that either your aunt or your father will become a city commissioner.

Here, we want to find the interest rate and principal

The interest rate, r = 6% and the principal, P = Rs 65,000

Compound interest:

A = P(1 + r/n)^t

Simple interest :

I = P * r * t

Simple interest for 2 years = Rs 7800

Simple interest for 1 year = Rs 7800 / 2

= Rs 3900

Compound interest for 2 years = Rs 8034

Compound interest for the second year = Rs 8034 - Rs 3900

= Rs 4134

Interest on Rs 3900 = Rs 4134 - Rs 3900

= Rs 234

Therefore,

Interest rate, r = 234/3900 × 100

= 0.06 × 100

r = 6%

Recall,

Simple interest :

I = P * r * t

Then,

P = I / r * t

= 3900 / 6% * 1

= 3900 / 0.06

= 65,000

P = Rs 65,000

Answer:

The null hypothesis is [tex]H_0: \mu = 444[/tex]

The alternative hypothesis is [tex]H_1: \mu < 444[/tex]

The p-value of the test is 0.1148 > 0.05, which means that the sample does not give enough evidence to conclude that the machine is underfilling the bags.

Step-by-step explanation:

A manufacturer of potato chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 444 gram setting.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the machine works correctly, that is, the mean is of 444. So

[tex]H_0: \mu = 444[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if they are underfilling, that is, if the mean is of less than 444. So

[tex]H_1: \mu < 444[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

444 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 444[/tex]

A 41 bag sample had a mean of 440 grams with a variance of 441.

This means that [tex]n = 41, X = 440, s = \sqrt{441} = 21[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{440 - 444}{\frac{21}{\sqrt{41}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = -1.22[/tex]

P-value of the test:

Right-tailed test(test if the mean is less than a value), with 41 - 1 = 40 df and t = -1.22.

Using a t-distribution calculator, this p-value is of 0.1148

The p-value of the test is 0.1148 > 0.05, which means that the sample does not give enough evidence to conclude that the machine is underfilling the bags.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall: when two tangents are drawn to meet at a point outside a circle, the segments of the two tangents are congruent.

Given,

CQ = 5

PQ = 10

Perimeter of ∆PQR = RC + CQ + QB + BP + PA + AR

CQ = QB = 5 (tangents drawn from an external point)

BP = PQ - QB

BP = 10 - 5 = 5

BP = PA = 5 (tangents drawn from an external point)

AR = PR - PA

AR = 14 - 5 = 9

AR = RC = 9 (tangents drawn from an external point)

Answer:

yeah

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

a) Because this asks about the radius and height, I assume that we are talking about a cylinder shape.

Remember that for a cylinder of radius R and height H the volume is:

V = pi*R^2*H

And the surface will be:

S = 2*pi*R*H + pi*R^2

where pi = 3.14

Here we know that the volume is 1000cm^3, then:

1000cm^3 = pi*R^2*H

We can rewrite this as:

(1000cm^3)/pi = R^2*H

Now we can isolate H to get:

H = (1000cm^3)/(pi*R^2)

Replacing that in the surface equation, we get:

S = 2*pi*R*H + pi*R^2

S = 2*pi*R*(1000cm^3)/(pi*R^2) + pi*R^2

S = 2*(1000cm^3)/R + pi*R^2

So we want to minimize this.

Then we need to find the zeros of S'

S' = dS/dR = -(2000cm^3)/R^2 + 2*pi*R = 0

So we want to find R such that:

2*pi*R = (2000cm^3)/R^2

2*pi*R^3 = 2000cm^3

R^3 = (2000cm^3/2*3.14)

R = ∛(2000cm^3/2*3.14) = 6.83 cm

The radius that minimizes the surface is R = 6.83 cm

With the equation:

H = (1000cm^3)/(pi*R^2)

We can find the height:

H = (1000cm^3)/(3.14*(6.83 cm)^2) =  6.83 cm

(so the height is equal to the radius)

b) The surface equation is:

S = 2*pi*R*H + pi*R^2

replacing the values of H and R we get:

S = 2*3.14*(6.83 cm)*(6.83 cm) + 3.14*(6.83 cm)^2 = 439.43 cm^2

c) Because if we pack cylinders, there is a lot of space between the cylinders, so when you store it, there will be a lot of space that is not used and that can't be used for other things.

Similarly for transport problems, for that dead space, you would need more trucks to transport your ice cream packages.

Answer: Given

room length is 3x feet

room width is 3x feet

a door 3 ft wide by 7 ft tall

Find

The net area of the wall, excluding the door

Solution

The area of the wall, including the door, is the room perimeter multiplied by the height of the room. The room perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the four walls.

... gross wall area = (3x +3x +3x +3x)·x = 12x²

The area of the door is the product of its height and width.

... door area = (7 t)×(3 ft) = 21 ft²

Then the net wall area, exclusive of the door is ...

... net wall area = gross wall area - door area

... net wall area = 12x² -21 . . . . square feet
