Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -6

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewriting the equations :

2x + y = -84x - 3y = -36

Now, solving the two equations using substitution method, we get :

x = -6

y = 4

Answer 2

Answer:

y = 4

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 x + 1/4 y= -2        first equation

-2/3 x + 1/2 y = 6      second equation

solution:

from the first equation:

8(1/2 x + 1/4 y) = -2*8

8x*1/2 + 8y*1/4 = -16

8x/2 + 8y/4 = -16

4x + 2y = -16        third equation

from the second equation

6(-2/3 x + 1/2 y) = 6*6

6x*-2/3 + 6y*1/2 = 36

-12x/3 + 6y/2 = 36

-4x + 3y = 36        fourth equation

from the third & fourth equation:

 4x + 2y  = -16

-4x + 3y  = 36

   0  + 5y = 20

5y = 20

y = 20/5

y = 4

from the fourth equation:

-4x + 3y = 36

-4x + 3*4 = 36

-4x + 12 = 36

-4x = 36 - 12

-4x = 24

x = 24/-4

x = -6

Check:

from the first equation:

1/2 x + 1/4 y = -2

1/2 *-6 + 1/4 * 4 = -2

-3 + 1 0 -2

from the second equation:

-2/3 x + 1/2 y = 6

-2/3 * -6  +  1/2 * 4 = 6

4 + 2 = 6

Which of the following units is incommensurable with kilograms

Answers

Answer:

All units of measurement that are not based on or do not measure mass or weight and volume are incommensurable with kilograms.

Step-by-step explanation:

A measure unit is said to be incommensurable with another if it does not have the same measurement basis with the other measure unit.  For example, a measure in time cannot be measured in kilograms because time is measured in hours, minutes, seconds, days, etc.  But, if a measurement base can be applied to two or more measurement units, then the measurement units are commensurable with the measurement base.

3 and 4 are the sides of the triangle (four triangles in rhombus)

a²+b²=c²

4³+3²=c²

c = 5

5 x 4 = 20

Hope this helped

Answer:

perimeter = 20 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

consider breaking the rhombus into four equal parts.

and that gives you a triangle.

(refer to image attached for more clarification)

let a = 3, b = 4

to get the side c, use Pythagorean theorem = c² = a² + b²

c = sqrt (3² + 4²)

side c = 5

therefore,

perimeter = 4 x sides (c)

perimeter = 4 x 5

perimeter = 20 cm

A baseball player has a batting average (probability of getting on base per time at bat) of 0.215. Based on this: What is the probability that they will get on base more than 6 of the next 15 at bats

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\mathbf{P(x>6) = 0.0265}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A baseball player has a batting average (probability of getting on base per time at bat) of 0.215

i.e

let x to be the random variable,

consider [tex]x_1 = \left \{ {{1} \atop {0}} \right.[/tex]  to be if the baseball player has a batting average or otherwise.

Then

p(x₁ = 1) = 0.125

What is the probability that they will get on base more than 6 of the next 15 at bats

So

[tex]\mathtt{x_i \sim Binomial (n,p)}[/tex]

where; n =  15 and p = 0.125

P(x>6) = P(x ≥ 7)

[tex]P(x>6) = \sum \limits ^{15}_{x=7} ( ^{15 }_x ) \ (0.215)^x \ (1 - 0.215)^{15-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(x>6) = 1 - \sum \limits ^{6}_{x=7} ( ^{15 }_x ) \ (0.215)^x \ (1 - 0.215)^{15-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(x>6) = 1 - \sum \limits ^{6}_{x=0} ( ^{15 }_x ) \ (0.215)^x \ (1 - 0.215)^{15-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(x>6) = 1 -0.9735[/tex]

The sequence below represents Marisa’s fine at the library for each day that she has an overdue book: $0.50, $0.65, $0.80, $0.95, $1.10, ... Which equation represents Marisa’s library fine as a function of a book that is n days overdue? f(n) = 0.15n f(n) = 0.50n f(n) = 0.15n + 0.35 f(n) = 0.50n + 0.15

Answers

Answer:

f(n) = 0.15n + 0.35

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence of the problem above is an arithmetic sequence

For an nth term in an arithmetic sequence

F(n) = a + ( n - 1)d

where a is the first term

n is the number of terms

d is the common difference

To find the equation first find the common difference

0.65 - 0.5 = 0.15 or 0.80 - 0.65 = 0.15

The first term is 0.5

Substitute the values into the above formula

That's

f(n) = 0.5 + (n - 1)0.15

f(n) = 0.5 + 0.15n - 0.15

The final answer is

f(n) = 0.15n + 0.35

Ratio 1.85 2.02 2.64 1.53 2.48 2.90 1.79 3.16

A)

Using the online linear regression calculator, the lie of best fit which models the data above is :

ŷ = 0.09386X - 15.55523

Where ;

X = independent variable

ŷ = predicted or dependent variable

- 15.55523 = intercept

0.09386 = gradient / slope

B)

Point estimate when tank temperature is 186

ŷ = 0.09386(186) - 15.55523

ŷ = 17.45796 - 15.55523

ŷ = 1.90273

C)

Residual error (y - ŷ), ŷ = 1.90273 when x = 186

(0.94 - 1.90273) = −0.96273

(1.85 - 1.90273) = −0.05273

(2.02 - 1.90273) = 0.11727

(2.64 - 1.90273) = 0.73727

D)

To determine the proportion of observed variation in efficiency ratio, we find the Coefficient of determination R^2, which can be found using the online Coefficient of determination calculator : the r^2 value obtained is 0.4433.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets first find the area of the rectangle part of the house.

To find the area of a rectangle its base × height.

So its 6×4=24 in².

Now lets find the area of the top triangle.

Area for a triangle is (base × height)/2.

The height is 3 inches, because its 7-4. While the base is 6 inches.

(6×3)/2=9 in².

To find the area of the half circle the formula, (piR²)/2.

The radius of the circle is 2 because its half of the diamter which is 4.

(pi2²)/2=6.283 in².

Now we just need to add up the area of every part,

24+9+6.283=39.283in²

(Enter your answer as a fraction.) (c) What is the probability of getting a sum of 6 or 10? (Enter your answer as a fraction.) Are these outcomes mutually exclusive? Yes No

Answers

Answer:

5/36 ; 1/12 ; 2/9 ; yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Roll of two fair dice : green and red

Probability = (number of required outcomes / number of total possible outcomes)

(a) What is the probability of getting a sum of 6?

Number of required outcomes = 5

P(sum of 6) = 5/36

b.) What is the probability of getting a sum of 10?

Number of required outcomes = 3

P(sum of 10) = 3 / 36 = 1/12

c.) What is the probability of getting a sum of 6 or 10?

P(getting a sum of 6) + P(getting a sum of 10)

(5/36) + (1/12) = (5 + 3) / 36

= 8/36 = 2/9

The events are mutually exclusive because each event cannot occur at the same time.

Answers

Answer and Step-by-step explanation: The null and alternative hypothesis for this test are:

[tex]H_{0}: s_{1}^{2} = s_{2}^{2}[/tex]

[tex]H_{a}: s_{1}^{2} > s_{2}^{2}[/tex]

To test it, use F-test statistics and compare variances of each treatment.

Calculate F-value:

[tex]F=\frac{s^{2}_{1}}{s^{2}_{2}}[/tex]

[tex]F=\frac{1.26^{2}}{0.93^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]F=\frac{1.5876}{0.8649}[/tex]

F = 1.8356

The critical value of F is given by a F-distribution table with:

degree of freedom (row): 20 - 1 = 19

degree of freedom (column): 20 - 1 = 19

And a significance level: α = 0.05

[tex]F_{critical}[/tex] = 2.2341

Comparing both values of F:

1.856 < 2.2341

i.e. F-value calculated is less than F-value of the table.

Therefore, failed to reject [tex]H_{0}[/tex], meaning there is no sufficient data to support the claim that sham treatment have pain reductions which vary more than for those using magnets treatment.

9. There are 50 pupils in a class. Out of this
number, 1/10 speak French only and 4/5 of the remainder speak both French and
English. If the rest speak English only,
i) find the number of students who speak​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

50 : 10 = 5 speaks French only

50 -5= 45 the remainder

4/5 * 45= 36 speaks French and English

45 - 36= 9 speaks English only

The number of students who speak:

i) French only = 5 students,

ii) both French and English = 36 students,

iii) English only = 9 students.

Step 1: Find the number of students who speak French only.

Step 2: Find the remainder (students who speak both French and English) after subtracting the French-only speakers.

Step 3: Find the number of students who speak both French and English.

Step 4: Find the number of students who speak English only.

Let's calculate it step by step:

Step 1: Find the number of students who speak French only.

1/10 of 50 pupils speak French only:

French-only speakers = (1/10) * 50 = 5 students.

Step 2: Find the remainder (students who speak both French and English) after subtracting the French-only speakers.

Remaining students = Total students - French-only speakers

Remaining students = 50 - 5 = 45 students.

Step 3: Find the number of students who speak both French and English.

4/5 of the remaining students speak both French and English:

Both French and English speakers = (4/5) * 45 = 36 students.

Step 4: Find the number of students who speak English only.

To find the English-only speakers, subtract the total number of French-only speakers and both French and English speakers from the total number of students:

English-only speakers = Total students - (French-only speakers + Both French and English speakers)

English-only speakers = 50 - (5 + 36) = 50 - 41 = 9 students.

Assume that f(x)=ln(1+x) is the given function and that Pn represents the nth Taylor Polynomial centered at x=0. Find the least integer n for which Pn(0.2) approximates ln(1.2) to within 0.01.

Answers

Answer:

the least integer for n is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

f(x) = ln(1+x)

centered at x=0

Pn(0.2)

Error < 0.01

We will use the format;

[[Max(f^(n+1) (c))]/(n + 1)!] × 0.2^(n+1) < 0.01

So;

f(x) = ln(1+x)

First derivative: f'(x) = 1/(x + 1) < 0! = 1

2nd derivative: f"(x) = -1/(x + 1)² < 1! = 1

3rd derivative: f"'(x) = 2/(x + 1)³ < 2! = 2

4th derivative: f""(x) = -6/(x + 1)⁴ < 3! = 6

This follows that;

Max|f^(n+1) (c)| < n!

Thus, error is;

(n!/(n + 1)!) × 0.2^(n + 1) < 0.01

This gives;

(1/(n + 1)) × 0.2^(n + 1) < 0.01

Let's try n = 1

(1/(1 + 1)) × 0.2^(1 + 1) = 0.02

This is greater than 0.01 and so it will not work.

Let's try n = 2

(1/(2 + 1)) × 0.2^(2 + 1) = 0.00267

This is less than 0.01.

So,the least integer for n is 2

In this exercise we have to use the knowledge of Taylor Polynomial to calculate the requested function, this way we will have;

the least integer for n is 2    

The function given in this exercise corresponds to:

[tex]f(x) = ln(1+x)[/tex]

knowing that the x point will be centered on:

[tex]x=0\\Pn(0,2)\\Error < 0.01[/tex]

By rewriting the equation we have to:

[tex][[Max(f^{(n+1)} (c))]/(n + 1)!] *0.2^{(n+1)} < 0.01[/tex]

So doing the derivatives related to the first function given in the exercise we have to:

[tex]f(x) = ln(1+x)[/tex]

First derivative: [tex]f'(x) = 1/(x + 1) < 0! = 1[/tex] 2nd derivative: [tex]f"(x) = -1/(x + 1)^2 < 1! = 1[/tex] 3rd derivative: [tex]f"'(x) = 2/(x + 1)^3 < 2! = 2[/tex] 4th derivative: [tex]f""(x) = -6/(x + 1)^4 < 3! = 6[/tex]

Following this we have to:

[tex]Max|f^{(n+1)} (c)| < n![/tex]

Thus, error is;

[tex](n!/(n + 1)!) * 0.2^{(n + 1)} < 0.01[/tex]

[tex](1/(n + 1))* 0.2^{(n + 1)} < 0.01[/tex]  

Let's try n = 1

[tex](1/(1 + 1)) *0.2^{(1 + 1)} = 0.02[/tex]

This is greater than 0.01 and so it will not work. Let's try n = 2

[tex](1/(2 + 1)) * 0.2^{(2 + 1)} = 0.00267[/tex]

This is less than 0.01. So,the least integer for n is 2.

20 = 2x

x = 10

3(10) + 15 = 30+15 = 45

Remember that a line has a measure of 180 degrees. So we can just subtract the angle we found from 180 degrees to get BFG.

180-45 = 135.

The height (in centimeters) of a candle is a linear function of the amount of time (in hours) it has been burning. When graphed, the function gives a line with a slope of −0.4. See the figure below. Suppose that the height of the candle after 11 hours is 16.6 centimeters. What was the height of the candle after 6 hours?

Answers

Answer:

height of the candle after 6 hours= 18.6 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

the function gives a line with a slope of −0.4.

the height of the candle after 11 hours is 16.6 centimeters.

after 6 hours, the height will be

But slope= y2-y1/x2-x1

Y2 is the unknown

Y1 = 16.6

X1= 11 hours

X2= 6 hours

y2-y1/x2-x1= -0.4

(Y2-16.6)/(6-11)= -0.4

(Y2-16.6)/(-5)= -0.4

(Y2-16.6)= -5( -0.4)

(Y2-16.6)= 2

Y2 = 2+16.6

Y2 = 18.6 centimeters

height of the candle after 6 hours= 18.6 centimeters

The scores of 10 randomly selected students from each class are listed below. • Sample of Class A: 75, 80, 60, 90, 85, 80, 70, 90, 70, 65 • Sample of Class B: 95, 90, 85, 90, 100, 75, 90, 85, 90, 85 Based on the medians of the scores for each class, what inference would you make about the quiz scores of all the students in Class A compared to all the students in Class B? Explain your reasoning to justify your answer.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to find the medians which is when you put the numbers in number order and find the one in the middle.

Class A: 60,65,70,70,75,80,80,85,90,90

=77.5

Class B: 75,85,85,85,90,90,90,90,95,100

=90

find the greatest common factor of 108d^2 and 216d

Answers

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

If d is a positive number then the greatest common factor is 108d.

To get it isolate d and d^2 from the numbers.

108 divides 216. (216 = 2×108)

Then the greatest common factor of 216 and 108 is 108.

For d^2 and d we will follow the same strategy

d divides d^2 (d^2 = d*d)

Then the greatest common factor of them is d.

So the greatest common factor will be 108d if and only if d is positive. If not then 108 is the answer

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{108d}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1: Find GCF of variables

The equation gives d ² and d as variables. The GCF rules for variables are:

The variables must have the same base.If one variable is raised to a power and the other is not, the GCF is the variable that does not have a power.If one variable is raised to a power and the other is raised to a power of lesser value, the GCF is the variable with the lesser value power.

The GCF for the variables is d.

Part 2: Find GCF of bases (Method #1)

The equation gives 108 and 216 as coefficients. To check for a GCF, use prime factorization trees to find common factors in between the values.

Key: If a number is in bold, it is marked this way because it cannot be divided further AND is a prime number!

Prime Factorization of 108

108 ⇒ 54 & 2

54 ⇒ 27 & 2

27 ⇒ 9 & 3

9 ⇒ 3 & 3

Therefore, the prime factorization of 108 is 2 * 2 * 3 * 3 * 3, or simplified as 2² * 3³.

Prime Factorization of 216

216 ⇒ 108 & 2

108 ⇒ 54 & 2

54 ⇒ 27 & 2

27 ⇒ 9 & 3

9 ⇒ 3 & 3

Therefore, the prime factorization of 216 is 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3 * 3, or simplified as 2³ * 3³.

After completing the prime factorization trees, check for the common factors in between the two values.

The prime factorization of 216 is 2³ * 3³ and the prime factorization of 108 is 2² * 3³.  Follow the same rules for GCFs of variables listed above and declare that the common factor is the factor of 108.

Therefore, the greatest common factor (combining both the coefficient and the variable) is [tex]\boxed{108d}[/tex].

Part 3: Find GCF of bases (Method #2)

This is the quicker method of the two. Simply divide the two coefficients and see if the result is 2. If so, the lesser number is immediately the coefficient.

[tex]\frac{216}{108}=2[/tex]

Therefore, the coefficient of the GCF will be 108.

Then, follow the process described for variables to determine that the GCF of the variables is d.

Therefore, the GCF is [tex]\boxed{108d}[/tex].

A bag contains two six-sided dice: one red, one green. The red die has faces numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. The green die has faces numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, and 4. A die is selected at random and rolled four times. You are told that two rolls were 1's and two were 4's. Find the probability the die chosen was green.

Answers

Answer:

the probability the die chosen was green is 0.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A bag contains two six-sided dice: one red, one green.

The red die has faces numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.

The green die has faces numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, and 4.

From above, the probability of obtaining 4 in a single throw of a fair die is:

P (4  | red dice) = [tex]\dfrac{1}{6}[/tex]

P (4 | green dice) = [tex]\dfrac{3}{6}[/tex] =[tex]\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

A die is selected at random and rolled four times.

As the die is selected randomly; the probability of the first die must be equal to the probability of the second die = [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

The probability of two 1's and two 4's in the first dice can be calculated as:

= [tex]\begin {pmatrix} \left \begin{array}{c}4\\2\\ \end{array} \right \end {pmatrix} \times \begin {pmatrix} \dfrac{1}{6} \end {pmatrix} ^4[/tex]

= [tex]\dfrac{4!}{2!(4-2)!} ( \dfrac{1}{6})^4[/tex]

= [tex]\dfrac{4!}{2!(2)!} \times ( \dfrac{1}{6})^4[/tex]

= [tex]6 \times ( \dfrac{1}{6})^4[/tex]

= [tex](\dfrac{1}{6})^3[/tex]

= [tex]\dfrac{1}{216}[/tex]

The probability of two 1's and two 4's in the second  dice can be calculated as:

= [tex]\begin {pmatrix} \left \begin{array}{c}4\\2\\ \end{array} \right \end {pmatrix} \times \begin {pmatrix} \dfrac{1}{6} \end {pmatrix} ^2 \times \begin {pmatrix} \dfrac{3}{6} \end {pmatrix} ^2[/tex]

= [tex]\dfrac{4!}{2!(2)!} \times ( \dfrac{1}{6})^2 \times ( \dfrac{3}{6})^2[/tex]

= [tex]6 \times ( \dfrac{1}{6})^2 \times ( \dfrac{3}{6})^2[/tex]

= [tex]( \dfrac{1}{6}) \times ( \dfrac{3}{6})^2[/tex]

= [tex]\dfrac{9}{216}[/tex]

The probability of two 1's and two 4's in both dies = P( two 1s and two 4s | first dice ) P( first dice ) + P( two 1s and two 4s | second dice ) P( second dice )

The probability of two 1's and two 4's in both die = [tex]\dfrac{1}{216} \times \dfrac{1}{2} + \dfrac{9}{216} \times \dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

The probability of two 1's and two 4's in both die = [tex]\dfrac{1}{432} + \dfrac{1}{48}[/tex]

The probability of two 1's and two 4's in both die = [tex]\dfrac{5}{216}[/tex]

By applying  Bayes Theorem; the probability that the die was green can be calculated as:

P(second die (green) | two 1's and two 4's )  = The probability of two 1's and two 4's | second dice)P (second die) ÷ P(two 1's and two 4's in both die)

P(second die (green) | two 1's and two 4's )  = [tex]\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2} \times \dfrac{9}{216}}{\dfrac{5}{216}}[/tex]

P(second die (green) | two 1's and two 4's )  = [tex]\dfrac{0.5 \times 0.04166666667}{0.02314814815}[/tex]

P(second die (green) | two 1's and two 4's )  = 0.9

Thus; the probability the die chosen was green is 0.9
