5640, 5090, 6590, 6380, 7165, 8440, 9980
The population has a standard deviation equal to 1210. Assuming that the data is from a distribution that is approximately normal, construct a 90 % confidence interval for the mean number of home fires started by candles each year

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(6290.678 ; 7790.742)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

5640, 5090, 6590, 6380, 7165, 8440, 9980

The sample mean, xbar = Σx / n = 49285 / 7 = 7040.71

The 90% confidence interval :

Xbar ± Margin of error

Margin of Error = Zcritical * σ/√n

Since the σ is known, we use the z- distribution

Zcritical at 90% confidence = 1.64

Hence,

Margin of Error = 1.64 * 1210/√7

Margin of Error = 750.032

90% confidence interval is :

7040.71 ± 750.032

Lower boundary = 7040.71 - 750.032 = 6290.678

Upper boundary = 7040.71 + 750.032 = 7790.742

(6290.678 ; 7790.742)

Answers

Answer:

The first 5 months Paul paid $ 15.50, and in the next 7 months he paid $ 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Paul signs up for a new cell phone plan, and he is offered a discount for the first five months, and after this period, his rate increases by $ 8.50 per month, and his total cost at the end of the year is $ 245.50, and Paul wrote the following equation to represent his plan: 5x + 7 (x + 8.50) = 245.50; To determine the value of X, the following calculation must be performed:

5X + 7 x (X + 8.50) = 245.50

5X + 7X + 59.50 = 245.50

12X + 59.50 = 245.50

12X = 245.50 - 59.50

12X = 186

X = 186/12

X = 15.50

Therefore, the first 5 months Paul paid $ 15.50, and in the next 7 months he paid $ 24.

write an equation of the line with slope -2 and passing through (3,1) in slope-intercept form

Answers

Answer:

y=-2x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

The form of slope-intercept form is given as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

We are given the slope (-2) and a point (3,1)

We can immediately substitute -2 as the slope in the equation

y=-2x+b

Now we need to find b

Because the line will pass through the point (3,1), we can use it to solve for b

Substitute 3 as x and 1 as y

1=-2(3)+b

multiply

1=-6+b

add 6 to both sides to isolate b

7=b

Substitute 7 as b into the equation

The line is y=-2x+7

The height of a triangle is 7 feet greater than the base. the area of the triangle is 247 ft.² find the length of the base and the height of the triangle

Answers

Answer:

Base = 19

Height = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Height, h = base, b + 7 feets

The area of triangle, A = 247 ft²

The area of a triangle is given by :

A = 1/2 * base * height

247 = 1/2 * b * (b + 7)

247 = 0.5 * b * (b + 7)

247 = 0.5b² + 3.5b

0.5b² + 3.5b - 247 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation ; using the quadratic equation solver, the roots are :

b = -26 or b = 19

Length of base can't be negative :

Hence,

Base, b = 19

Height, h = base + 7 = 19 + 7 = 26

Step-by-step explanation:

You can figure it out by adding all the interior angles.

(180-75=105º)

(180-67=113º)

105+113+90=308º

The sum of interior angles is (n-2) × 180 so the sum in his case is

(5-2) ×180=540º

540º-308º=232º

However that is the sum of the two angles but since the angles are the same size, we can divide by 2

232º÷2=116º

We must remember that this is an interior angle so we now can calculate the value of y

A stack of squares has 170 squares in the bottom row, 156 in the second row from the bottom, 142 in the third row from the bottom and 128 in the fourth row from the bottom. How many squares will there be in the 11th row from the bottom ? - a table always makes these sums easier!)​

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  30

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence of square counts is ...

  170, 156, 142, 128

The differences from one row to the next are ...

  -14, -14, -14

We see that the differences are constant, so we know the sequence is an arithmetic sequence with first term 170 and common difference -14. This means the n-th term is ...

  an = a1 +d(n -1) . . . . . . for first term a1 and common difference d

  an = 170 -14(n -1)

For n=11, the number of squares is ...

  a11 = 170 -14(11 -1) = 30

There will be 30 squares in the 11th row.

A cone-shaped paper drinking cup is to be made to hold 24 cm3 of water. Find the height and radius of the cup that will use the smallest amount of paper. (Round your answers to two decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

I. Radius, r = 2.90 cm

II. Height, h = 4.10 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Volume of cone = 24 cm³

To find the height and radius of the cup that will use the smallest amount of paper;

Mathematically, the volume of a cone is given by the formula;

[tex] V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2}h[/tex]  ......equation 1

Where;

V is the volume of the cone.

r is the radius of the base of the cone.

h is the height of the cone.

Substituting into the formula, we have;

[tex] 36 = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2}h[/tex]

Multiplying both sides by 3, we have;

[tex] 108 = \pi r^{2}h[/tex]

Making radius, r the subject of formula, we have;

[tex] r^{2} = \frac {108}{ \pi h} [/tex]

Taking the square root of both sides, we have;

[tex] r = \sqrt { \frac {108}{ \pi h}} [/tex]

Mathematically, the lateral surface area of a cone is given by the formula;

[tex] LSA = \pi rl [/tex]  ......equation 2

Where;

r is the radius of a cone

l is the slant height of a cone.

To find the slant height, we would apply the Pythagorean' theorem;

[tex] l = \sqrt {r^{2} + h^{2}} [/tex]

Substituting r into the above equation, we have;

[tex] l = \sqrt {\frac {108}{\pi h} + h^{2}} [/tex]

Substituting the values of r and l into eqn 2, we have;

[tex] LSA = \pi * \sqrt { \frac {108}{ \pi h}} * \sqrt {\frac {108}{\pi h} + h^{2}} [/tex]

Simplifying further, we have;

[tex] LSA = \sqrt {108} * \sqrt { \frac {\pi h^{3} + 108}{\pi h}} [/tex]

[tex] LSA = \sqrt {108} * \sqrt { \frac {108}{ h^{2}} + \pi h}} [/tex]

Next, to find the value of h, we differentiate the above mathematical equation with respect to h;

[tex] \frac {dS}{dh} = \sqrt {108} * (\pi - \frac {216}{h^{3}}) * (\pi h + \frac {108}{h^{2}}) [/tex]

Limiting [tex] \frac {dS}{dh} [/tex] w.r.t 0;

[tex] \frac {dS}{dh} = 0 [/tex]

[tex] (\pi - \frac {216}{h^{3}}) = 0 [/tex]

Rearranging the equation, we have;

[tex] \pi = \frac {216}{h^{3}} [/tex]

We know that π = 3.142

[tex] 3.142 = \frac {216}{h^{3}} [/tex]

Cross-multiplying, we have;

[tex] 3.142h^{3} = 216 [/tex]

[tex] h^{3} = \frac {216}{3.142} [/tex]

[tex] h^{3} = 68.75 [/tex]

Taking the cube root of both sides, we have;

Height, h = 4.10 cm

Lastly, we find the value of r;

[tex] r = \sqrt { \frac {108}{ \pi h}} [/tex]

[tex] r = \sqrt { \frac {108}{3.142 * 4.10}} [/tex]

[tex] r = \sqrt { \frac {108}{12.88}} [/tex]

[tex] r = \sqrt {8.39} [/tex]

Radius, r = 2.90 cm

The height and radius of the cup that will use the smallest amount of paper is;

Radius = 2.52 cm

Radius = 2.52 cmHeight = 3.58 cm

Let us first state some relevant formulas;

Volume of a cone is;

V = ⅓πr²h

Surface area of a cone is;

S = πrL

Where L is Slant height and has a formula;

L = √(h² + r²)

We are told that the cone is to hold 24 cm³. Thus; V = 24 cm³

24 = ⅓πr²h

πr²h = 72

r = √(72/πh)

Putting √(72/πh) for r in the Slant height equation gives;

L = √(h² + (72/πh))

Thus;

S = π × √(72/πh) × √(h² + (72/πh))

Differentiating with respect to h gives;

dS/dh = √72 × (π - 144/h³) × 1/√(πh + 72/h²)

At dS/dh = 0,we will have;

(π - 144/h³) = 0

Thus;

h³ = 144/π

h = 3.58 cm

Thus, from r = √(72/πh);

r = √(72/(π × 3.58))

r = 2.52 cm

c² = a² + b² (where c is the hypotenuse, and a and b are the other two sides)

c =  65       , a = 16        b = ?

65² = 16² + b²

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angles in a quadrilateral is 360°, so the measure of x° is ...

  x° = 360° -127° -90° -40° = 103°

  x = 103

Answer:

The measure of x is 103 °.

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept :- As we know that sum angles of quadrilateral is 360 ° so, to find the measure of x.

Firstly add all the angles that we have given and subtract from 360 ° and we get the vue of x.

Solution :-

We know that The sum angles of quadrilateral is 360 ° , Hence, value of x =

x + 127 ° + 90 ° + 40 ° = 360 °

x + 257 ° = 360 °

Subtract 257 ° from 360 °

x = 360 ° - 257 °

x = 103 °

Therefore, The measure of x is 103 °.
