Answer:
Our fourth number is 52.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let our first even number be x.
Then the second even number must be (x + 2), the third (x + 4), fourth (x + 6), and the fifth (x + 8).
They sum to 250. Hence:
[tex]x+(x+2)+(x+4)+(x+6)+(x+8)=250[/tex]
Solve for x. Combine like terms:
[tex]5x+20=250[/tex]
Subtract 20 from both sides:
[tex]5x=230[/tex]
And divide both sides by five. Hence:
[tex]x=46[/tex]
Thus, our sequence is 46, 48, 50, 52, and 54.
Hence, our fourth number is 52.
In a given region, the number of tornadoes in a one-week period is modeled by a Poisson distribution with mean 2. The numbers of tornadoes in different weeks are mutually independent. Calculate the probability that fewer than four tornadoes occur in a three-week period.
Answer:
0.1512 = 15.12% probability that fewer than four tornadoes occur in a three-week period.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
In which
x is the number of sucesses
e = 2.71828 is the Euler number
[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.
In a given region, the number of tornadoes in a one-week period is modeled by a Poisson distribution with mean 2
Three weeks, so [tex]\mu = 2*3 = 6[/tex]
Calculate the probability that fewer than four tornadoes occur in a three-week period.
This is:
[tex]P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0025[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.0149[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.0446[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.0892[/tex]
Then
[tex]P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.0025 + 0.0149 + 0.0446 + 0.0892 = 0.1512[/tex]
0.1512 = 15.12% probability that fewer than four tornadoes occur in a three-week period.
An internet cafe charges a fixed amount per minute to use the internet. The cost of using the
internet in dollars is, y = 3/4x. If x is the number of minutes spent on the internet, how many
minutes will $6 buy?
er
Answer:
x = 8 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
An internet cafe charges a fixed amount per minute to use the internet.
The cost of using the internet in dollars is,
[tex]y=\dfrac{3}{4}x[/tex]
Where
x is the number of minutes spent on the internet
We need to find the value of x when y = $6.
So, put y = 6 in the above equation.
[tex]6=\dfrac{3}{4}x\\\\x=\dfrac{6\times 4}{3}\\\\x=8\ min[/tex]
So, 8 minutes must spent on internet.

You may recall that the area of a rectangle is A=L⋅W, where W is the width and L is the length.
Suppose that the length of a rectangle is 3 times the width. If the area is 300 square feet, then what is the width of the rectangle, in feet?
Do not type the units in your answer.
Answer:
The width is 10 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the area of a rectangle is given by the formula:
[tex]\displaystyle A=L\cdot W[/tex]
Where L is the length and W is the width.
We are given that the length of the rectangle is three times the width. In other words:
[tex]L=3W[/tex]
The total area is 300 square feet. And we want to determine the width of the rectangle.
So, substitute 300 for A and 3W for L:
[tex](300)=(3W)\cdot W[/tex]
Multiply:
[tex]300=3W^2[/tex]
Divide both sides by three:
[tex]W^2=100[/tex]
And take the principal square root of both sides. So:
[tex]W=10[/tex]
Thus, the width of the rectangle is 10 feet.

Is the distance a baseball travels in the air after being hit a discrete random variable, a continuous random variable, or not a random variable?
Answer: a continuous random variable
Step-by-step explanation:
Can you count the distance it traveled? You can't, so it couldn't be discrete because you can count discrete variables.
Can you measure the distance it traveled? You sure can, that makes it a continuous random variable.
Do you know the exact distance it's going to travel? You won't, therefore it's a random variable since you don't know the value beforehand.
A game-show spinner has these odds of stopping on particular dollar values: 55% for $5, 20% for $25, 15% for $50, and 10% for $500. What are the odds of a player winning $5 or $25
Answer: 75%
Step-by-step explanation:
what are the zeroes of f(x)=(x-7)(x+8)
Answer:
The zeroes of f(x) = (x-7)(x+8) are 7 and -8.
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to figure out what makes each of the equal to zero.
Step 1 : Make the 2 equations both equal 0.
x-7 = 0
x+8 = 0
Step 2: Solve for x
x-7 = 0
x=7
x+8 = 0
x=-8
So 7 and -8 are both zeroes of this function.
19. In a random sample of 250 students, we found that 75 work out 4 or more times a week. Find the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of students who work out 4 or more times a week.
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of students who work out 4 or more times a week is (0.2432, 0.3568).
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
In a random sample of 250 students, we found that 75 work out 4 or more times a week.
This means that [tex]n = 250, \pi = \frac{75}{250} = 0.3[/tex]
95% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].
The lower limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.3 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.3*0.7}{250}} = 0.2432[/tex]
The upper limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.3 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.3*0.7}{250}} = 0.3568[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of students who work out 4 or more times a week is (0.2432, 0.3568).
rewrite 1/6 and 2/11 so they have a common denominator then use <, =, or > to order
Answer:
1/6 < 2/11
Step-by-step explanation:
1/6 = 2/12
2/11 >2/12
So that means 1/6 < 2/11
Answer: 1/6 < 2/11
This is the same as saying 11/66 < 12/66
===========================================================
Explanation:
1/6 is the same as 11/66 when multiplying top and bottom by 11.
2/11 is the same as 12/66 when multiplying top and bottom by 6.
The 6 and 11 multipliers are from the original denominators (just swapped).
We can see that 11/66 is smaller than 12/66, simply because 11 < 12, so that means 1/6 is smaller than 2/11
-----------------
Here's one way you could list out the steps
11 < 12
11/66 < 12/66
1/6 < 2/11
------------------
Here's another way to list out the steps. First assume that 1/6 and 2/11 are equal. Cross multiplication then leads to
1/6 = 2/11
1*11 = 6*2
11 = 12
Which is false. But we can fix this by replacing every equal sign with a less than sign
1/6 < 2/11
1*11 < 6*2
11 < 12
---------------------
Yet another way to see which is smaller is to use your calculator or long division to find the decimal form of each value
1/6 = 0.1667 approximately
2/11 = 0.1818 approximately
We see that 0.1667 is smaller than 0.1818, which must mean 1/6 is smaller than 2/11.

Step-by-step explanation:
In a survey, 24 people were asked how much they spent on their child's last birthday gift. The results were roughly bell-shaped with a mean of $42 and standard deviation of $2. Construct a confidence interval at a 98% confidence level.
Answer:
The 98% confidence interval for the mean amount spent on their child's last birthday gift is between $40.98 and $43.02.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 24 - 1 = 23
98% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 23 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.99[/tex]. So we have T = 2.5
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.5\frac{2}{\sqrt{24}} = 1.02[/tex]
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 42 - 1.02 = $40.98.
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 42 + 1.02 = $43.02.
The 98% confidence interval for the mean amount spent on their child's last birthday gift is between $40.98 and $43.02.

The lake is famous for cutthroat trout. Suppose a friend tells you that the average length of trout caught in Pyramid Lake is µ = 19 inches. However, a survey reported that of a random sample of 46 fish caught, the mean length was x = 18.6 inches, with estimated standard deviation s = 3.1 inches. Do these data indicate that the average length of a trout caught in Pyramid Lake is less than µ = 19 inches? Use ???? = 0.05.
Answer:
The test statistics will be "-0.876",
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
[tex]\bar x=18.6[/tex][tex]\mu = 19[/tex][tex]s = 3.1[/tex][tex]n = 46[/tex]According to the question,
Level of significance will be:

Which statement best describes g(x) = 3x + 6 - 8 and the parent function f(x) = } ?
The domains of g(x) and f(x) are the same, but their ranges are not the same.
* The ranges of g(x) and f(x) are the same, but their domains are not the same.
The ranges of g(x) and f(x) are the same, and their domains are also the same.
The domains of g(x) and f(x) are the not the same, and their ranges are also not the same.
Answer:
In general gf(x) is not equal to fg(x)
Some pairs of functions cannot be composed. Some pairs of functions can be composed only for certain values of x.
Only with they can be composed some values of x are the ranges of g(x) and f(x) are the same, and their domains are also the same. Or else lies inside it.
Step-by-step explanation:
g(x) = 3x + 6 - 8, f(x) = √x.
The domain of a composed function is either the same as the domain of the first function, or else lies inside it
The range of a composed function is either the same as the range of the second function, or else lies inside it.
Or vice versa
Now only positive numbers, or zero, have real square roots. So g is defined only for numbers
greater than or equal to zero. Therefore g(f(x)) can have a value only if f(x) is greater than or
equal to zero. You can work out that
f(x) ≥ 0 only when x ≥3/2

HELP PLEASE! I tried everything from adding to dividing, subtracting, multiplying but still no correct answer. Can someone help me out here please? I am not sure where to start. Thank you for your time.
Answer:
6.09 is the answer rounded to nearest hundredths.
Step-by-step explanation:
It gives you n=150, p=0.55, and q=1-p.
If p=0.55 and q=1-p, then by substitution property we have q=1-0.55=0.45.
It ask you to evaluate the expression sqrt(npq).
So npq means find the product of 150 and 0.55 and 0.45. So that is 150(0.55)(0.45)=37.125.
The sqrt(npq) means we need to find the square root of that product. So sqrt(37.125)=6.093 approximately .
f(x) = (x + 1)^2
Determine for each x-value whether it is in the domain of f
or not.
Answer:
All of them are in the domain.
Step-by-step explanation:
The function is f(x)= (x+1)^2. If you simplify this, you get y=x^2+2x+1=0. This is a quadratic that opens upwards. There are no gaps in the x values and no impossible values. The domain is all real numbers and all the answer choices are real numbers.
Sara is working on a Geometry problem in her Algebra class. The problem requires Sara to use the two quadrilaterals below to answer a list of questions.
Part A: For what one value of are the perimeters of the quadrilaterals the same? (Hint: The perimeter of a quadrilateral is the sum of its sides.)
Part B: For what one value of are the areas of the quadrilaterals the same? (Hint: The area of a quadrilateral is the product of its base and height.)
Answer:
For the perimeters, x must be equal to 2.
For the areas, it is either undefined, or something.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can first find the perimeters for both sides.
For the left shape, we add the two sides of 6 and x + 4 to get x + 10.
Then we multiply x + 10 by 2 because there are 4 sides, and we only got 2 sides.
The perimeter of the first shape is 2x + 20.
The second shape can be solved by doing the same thing by adding 2 and 3x + 4 to get 3x + 6.
3x + 6 times 2 is 6x + 12.
The second perimeter is 6x + 12.
If both sides are supposed to be equal, then we can write these two expressions we solved for like:
6x + 12 = 2x + 20.
Subtraction property of equality
6x + 12 - 12 = 2x + 20 - 12
Simplify
6x = 2x + 8
Again
6x - 2x = 2x - 2x + 8
Simplify
4x = 8
Division property of equality
4/4x = 8/4
Simplify
x = 2
So if x = 2, the perimeters will be the same.
You can confirm this by plugging it back into either equation.
For the areas, we just multiply the length and width for both shapes, so we get
6(x+4) = 2(3x+4)
Since they are supposed to be equal.
We simplify and get
6x + 24 = 6x + 8
We know this is false and is not possible, since we can remove the 6x because it is on both sides.
We also know that 24 is not equal to 8 (who thought!)
:D
24 ≠ 8
So it is undefined or whatever you call it.

1. The area of a square is less than 25cm2. What can we say about
a. The length of one of its sides?
b. Its perimeter?
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us take a nominal square of area 25 cm².
It's length of one of it's sides will be √25 = 5 cm².It's perimeter will be 5*4 = 20 cm.So, in this question, we can say that:-
a. The length of one of its sides will be less than 5 cm.
b. Its perimeter will be less than 20 cm.
Hope it helps :)
Step-by-step explanation:
area= 25cm squared
length of one side = 5cm as 5*5 =25
perimeter= 5*4= 20cm
But since the area is less than 25cm squared
we can say that the length of one side is less than 5cm and we can also say that the length of the perimeter is less than 20cm.
Hope this helps.

Use the box below to show clearly how you get your answer.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
this is the famous dirt formula, :P I made it up :D
D=rt ( notice it looks like Dirt , kinda, but it also means it dirt simple )
D= distance
r = rate ( think speed or how fast)
t = time ( in what ever units of time you want to use, seconds, minutes, hours )
13:28 - 11:20 = 128 minutes ( b/c the question is asking in MPH convert to hours) 2.4666667 hours
210 miles = r * 2.46666667
210 / 2.46666667 = r ( in MPH) ( does anyone else find it odd that they are saying miles in London instead of kilometers? :/ )
85.135 MPH = rate
so no, not even close to 104 MPH :/
Answer:
Average speed is 98 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{distance (miles)}{time (hours)}[/tex] = speed [tex]\frac{mile}{hours}[/tex] (miles per hour is a ratio)
The time is 2 hours and 8 minutes.
[tex]\frac{8}{60}[/tex] = .13333 ( 8 minutes / 60 minutes in a hour)
So time is 2.133333 hours .
Divide the distance 210 by the time 2.13333 and get the speed.
Its 98.437..
Round to 98 miles per hour.

Two mechanics worked on a car. The first mechanic worked for 10 hours, and the second mechanic worked for 5 hours. Together they charged a total of $1125. What was the rate charged per hour by each mechanic if the sum of the two rates was $140 per hour?
Answer:
The first mechanic charged $ 85 an hour, and the second mechanic charged $ 55 an hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that two mechanics worked on a car, and the first mechanic worked for 10 hours, and the second mechanic worked for 5 hours, and together they charged a total of $ 1125, to determine what was the rate charged per hour by each mechanic if the sum of the two rates was $ 140 per hour, the following calculation must be performed:
1125/15 = X
75 = X
80 x 10 + 60 x 5 = 800 + 300 = 1100
85 x 10 + 55 x 5 = 850 + 275 = 1125
Therefore, the first mechanic charged $ 85 an hour, and the second mechanic charged $ 55 an hour.

The width of a rectangular slab of concrete is 7 m less than the length. The area is 98 m squared. Find the dimensions
Answer:
Length = 14 m, Width = 7 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length is l and width is b.
Width, b = l-7
Area of the rectangle, A = 98 m²
We know that, the area of a rectangle is as follow :
[tex]A=lb[/tex]
So,
[tex]98=l(l-7)\\\\98=l^2-7l\\\\l^2-7l-98=0\\\\l^2+7l-14l-98=0\\\\l(l+7)-14(l+7)=0\\\\l=14,-7[/tex]
Length can't be negative. So,
Width, b = 14-7 = 7 m
So, the dimensions of the rectangle are 14 m and 7 m respectively.
