Suppose that each student at a university has one of 4 expected graduation years and one of 21 majors. How many students must be enrolled to guarantee 2 graduations in the same year and major?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is "168 students".

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

Graduation probability,

[tex]P_g=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Major probability,

[tex]P_m=\frac{1}{21}[/tex]

Now,

The probability of having both graduation as well as major will be:

= [tex]\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{1}{21}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{1}{84}[/tex]

hence,

The number of students having guarantee two graduations throughout the same year and major will be:

⇒ [tex]\frac{x}{84}=2[/tex]

By applying cross-multiplication, we get

⇒ [tex]x = 84\times 2[/tex]

⇒    [tex]=168[/tex]

Maria's Pizza Palace offers 4 types of crust, 7 toppings, and 6 kinds of cheese for the mega calzone. How many different mega calzones can be made if a mega calzone contains 5 different toppings and 3 different cheeses

Answers

Answer:

210 different mega calzones can be made.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fundamental counting principle:

States that if there are p ways to do a thing, and q ways to do another thing, and these two things are independent, there are p*q ways to do both things.

Additionally:

The order in which the toppings and the cheeses are chosen is not important, which means that the combinations formula is used to solve this question.

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]

Toppings:

5 from a set of 7. So

[tex]C_{7,5} = \frac{7!}{5!2!} = 21[/tex]

Cheeses

3 from a set of 6. So

[tex]C_{6,3} = \frac{6!}{3!3!} = 20[/tex]

How many different mega calzones can be made if a mega calzone contains 5 different toppings and 3 different cheeses?

Toppings and cheeses are independent, and thus, by the fundamental counting principle:

21*20 = 210

210 different mega calzones can be made.

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  e. Exponential growth occurs when a population increases at a fixed percentage of every generation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential growth occurs when the amount of increase is proportional to the population. That is, the increase is a fixed percentage of the population in any given time period (generation).

__

Many populations appear to have exponential growth when resources are effectively unlimited. The growth can be rapid, but isn't always. At some point, the population generally finds a limit to its growth, which then ceases to be exponential.

A function describing population growth that is jointly proportional to population and available resources is called a logistic function. It has an exponential component, but is not an exponential function.

A college admissions officer takes a simple random sample of 90 entering freshman and computes their mean mathematics sat score to be 436. assume the population standard deviation is σ = 101. Based on a 99% confidence interval for the mean mathematics SAT score, is it likely that the mean mathematics SAT score for entering freshmen class is greater than 460?

Answers

Answer:

460 is part of the confidence interval, which means that we cannot say that there is significant evidence that the mean mathematics SAT score for entering freshmen class is greater than 460

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 - 0.99}{2} = 0.005[/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 - 0.005 = 0.995[/tex], so Z = 2.575.

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 = 2.575\frac{101}{\sqrt{90}} = 27.4[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 436 - 27.4 = 408.6.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 436 + 27.4 = 463.4.

460 is part of the confidence interval, which means that we cannot say that there is significant evidence that the mean mathematics SAT score for entering freshmen class is greater than 460

Leila is arranging 11 cans of food in a row on a shelf. She has 4 cans of corn, 1 can of peas, and 6 cans of beets. In how many distinct orders can the cans be arranged if two cans of the same food are considered identical.

Answers

Given:

Leila is arranging 11 cans of food in a row on a shelf. She has 4 cans of corn, 1 can of peas, and 6 cans of beets.

To find:

The distinct orders can the cans be arranged if two cans of the same food are considered identical.

Solution:

Total number of cans = 11

Cans of corn = 4

Cans of Peas = 1

Cans of beets = 6

We need to find divide total possible arrangements (11!) by the repeating arrangements (1!, 4!, 6!) to find the distinct orders can the cans be arranged if two cans of the same food are considered identical.

[tex]\text{Distinct order}=\dfrac{11!}{1!4!6!}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Distinct order}=\dfrac{11\times 10\times 9\times 8\times 7\times 6!}{1\times (4\times 3\times 2\times 1)\times 6!}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Distinct order}=\dfrac{55440}{24}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Distinct order}=2310[/tex]

Therefore, the total number of distinct orders is 2310.

santino is renting a canoe from a local shop that charges a $10 fee, plus an hourly rate of $7.50. For how long can santino rent a canoe if he pays a total of $70

Answers

Answer:

Santino rented the canoe for 8 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total bill is represented by the formula r(h) = $10 + ($7.50/hour)h,

where h is the number of hours over which the canoe is rented.

If the total bill is $70, then $70 = $10 +  ($7.50/hour)h.

Solve this for h.  Start by subtracting $10 from both sides, obtaining:

$60 =  ($7.50/hour)h.

Dividing both sides by ($7.50/hour), we get:

           $60

h = --------------------- = 8 hours

      ($7.50/hour)

Santino rented the canoe for 8 hours.

where b is the base and h is the height.

Plug in what we know.

[tex] \frac{b \times 6x}{2} = 6 {x}^{2} + 24x[/tex]

Multiply 2 by both sides.

[tex]b \times 6x = 2(6 {x}^{2} + 24x)[/tex]

Sonia took a loan of $10 000 from ABC bank tob pay for a renovation at home. The bank offered her a period of 30 months at a rate of 10.5%. to repay the loan:

a) Calculate the Simple Interest she would pay in 30 months.

b) Calculate the Total amount Sonia would have to repay the bank.

Answers

Answer:

a. Simple interest, S.I = $2,625

b. Total amount = $12,625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Principal = $10,000

Interest rate = 10.5%

Time = 30 months to years = 2.5 years

a. To find the simple interest;

Mathematically, simple interest is calculated using this formula;

[tex] S.I = \frac {PRT}{100} [/tex]

Where;

S.I is simple interest. P is the principal. R is the interest rate. T is the time.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

[tex] S.I = \frac {10000*10.5*2.5}{100} [/tex]

[tex] S.I = \frac {262500}{100} [/tex]

Simple interest, S.I = $2,625

b. To calculate the total amount Sonia would have to repay the bank;

Total amount = simple interest + principal

Total amount = 2625 + 10000

Total amount = $12,625

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f^{-1}(x) =\frac{x}{3} - 5[/tex]

The inverse function is to calculate the number of rides; given the amount paid

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Admission = 15[/tex]

[tex]Ride = 3[/tex] per ride

Required

Explain the inverse function

First, we calculate the function

Let x represents the number of rides

So:

[tex]f(x) = Admission + Ride * x[/tex]

[tex]f(x) = 15 + 3 * x[/tex]

[tex]f(x) = 15 + 3x[/tex]

For the inverse function, we have:

[tex]y = 15 + 3x[/tex]

Swap x and y

[tex]x = 15 + 3y[/tex]

Make 3y the subject

[tex]3y = x - 15[/tex]

Make y the subject

[tex]y =\frac{x}{3} - 5[/tex]

Replace y with the inverse function

[tex]f^{-1}(x) =\frac{x}{3} - 5[/tex]

The above is to calculate the number of rides; given the amount paid

Answer:

[tex]h(t)[/tex] is likely a quadratic function.

Based on values in the table, domain of [tex]h(t)[/tex] : [tex]\lbrace 0,\, 1,\, 2,\, 3,\, 4,\, 5,\, 6,\, 7,\, 8\rbrace[/tex]; range of [tex]h(t)\![/tex]: [tex]\lbrace 0,\, 35.1,\, 60.1\, 75.2,\, 80.3,\, 75.3,\, 60.2,\, 35.0 \rbrace[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

By the power rule, [tex]h(t)[/tex] is a quadratic function if and only if its first derivative, [tex]h^\prime(t)[/tex], is linear.

In other words, [tex]h(t)[/tex] is quadratic if and only if [tex]h^\prime(t)[/tex] is of the form [tex]a\, x + b[/tex] for some constants [tex]a[/tex] and [tex]b[/tex]. Tables of differences of [tex]h(t)\![/tex] could help approximate  whether [tex]h^\prime(t)\![/tex] is indeed linear.

Make sure that values of [tex]t[/tex] in the first row of the table are equally spaced. Calculate the change in [tex]h(t)[/tex] over each interval:

[tex]h(1) - h(0) = 35.1[/tex].[tex]h(2) - h(1) = 25.0[/tex].[tex]h(3) - h(2) = 15.1[/tex].[tex]h(4) - h(3) = 5.1[/tex].[tex]h(5) - h(4) = -5.0[/tex].[tex]h(6) - h(5) = -15.1[/tex].[tex]h(7) - h(6) = -25.2[/tex].[tex]h(8) - h(7) = -35.0[/tex].

Consecutive changes to the value of [tex]h(t)[/tex] appears to resemble a line with slope [tex](-10)[/tex] within a margin of [tex]0.2[/tex]. Hence, it is likely that [tex]h(t)\![/tex] is indeed a quadratic function of [tex]t[/tex].

The domain of a function is the set of input values that it accepts. For the [tex]h(t)[/tex] of this question, the domain of [tex]h(t)\![/tex] is the set of values that [tex]t[/tex] could take. These are listed in the first row of this table.

On the other hand, the range of a function is the set of values that it outputs. For the [tex]h(t)[/tex] of this question, these are the values in the second row of the table.

Since both the domain and range of a function are sets, their members are supposed to be unique. For example, the number "[tex]0[/tex]" appears twice in the second row of this table: one for [tex]t = 0[/tex] and the other for [tex]t = 8[/tex]. However, since the range of [tex]h(t)[/tex] is a set, it should include the number [tex]0\![/tex] only once.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the total amount of money (in cents) of the expression:

[tex]\text{$x$ nickels, $(x+3)$ quarters, and $3x$ dimes}[/tex]

Since each nickel is worth five cents, each quarter 25 cents, and each dime ten cents, we can write that:

Simplify. Distribute:

[tex]T=5x+25x+75+30x[/tex]

Combine like terms. Therefore, the total amount of money (in cents) is represented by:

To paint interior​ walls, a person charges 50¢ per square foot plus the cost of the paint. For a recent​ job, the paint cost ​$100 and the total bill was ​$475.
The person must have painted ____ ft^2.

Answers

Answer:

750 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

.Given :

Charge per ft² = 50¢ = $0.5

Total cost = ((charge per ft² * number of ft²) + cost of paint)

Given that :

Paint cost = $100

Total cost = $475

Number of ft² = x

Plugging values into the equation :

475 = (( 0.5 * x) + 100)

475 = 0.5x + 100

475 - 100 = 0.5x

375 = 0.5x

x = 375 / 0.5

x = 750 ft²
