Answer:
(x -3) +(x -1) +(x +1) +(x +3) = -72-21, -19, -17, -15Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the even integer between the middle two odd integers. Then the sum of the four odd integers is ...
(x -3) +(x -1) +(x +1) +(x +3) = -72
4x = -72
x = -18
The four integers are -21, -19, -17, -15.
_____
Additional comment
You could let x represent one of the integers. Often, people choose to let it represent the least of them. Then the equation becomes x +(x+2) +(x+4) +(x+6) = -72, so 4x = -84 and x = -21. This introduces a "subtract 12" step in the solution process that is unnecessary if x is chosen to be the average of the integers.
As the average, x is the sum divided by the number of them, so you know x=-72/4 = -18 immediately. Then you just have to find the nearest two odd integers below and above -18. You can do the whole problem mentally.

A hotel manager believes that 23% of the hotel rooms are booked. If the manager is right, what is the probability that the proportion of rooms booked in a sample of 610 rooms would differ from the population proportion by less than 3%
Answer:
0.9216 = 92.16% probability that the proportion of rooms booked in a sample of 610 rooms would differ from the population proportion by less than 3%
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
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.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]
A hotel manager believes that 23% of the hotel rooms are booked.
This means that [tex]p = 0.23[/tex]
Sample of 610 rooms
This means that [tex]n = 610[/tex]
Mean and standard deviation:
[tex]\mu = p = 0.23[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.23*0.77}{610}} = 0.017[/tex]
What is the probability that the proportion of rooms booked in a sample of 610 rooms would differ from the population proportion by less than 3%?
p-value of Z when X = 0.23 + 0.03 = 0.26 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.23 - 0.03 = 0.2. So
X = 0.26
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{0.26 - 0.23}{0.017}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.76[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.76[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9608
X = 0.2
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{0.2 - 0.23}{0.017}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.76[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.76[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0392
0.9608 - 0.0392 = 0.9216
0.9216 = 92.16% probability that the proportion of rooms booked in a sample of 610 rooms would differ from the population proportion by less than 3%
According to Okun's law, if the unemployment rate goes from 5% to 3%, what will be the effect on the GDP?
A. It will increase by 7%.
B. It will decrease by 7%.
C. It will decrease by 1%.
D. It will increase by 1%.
Answer:
D. It will increase by 1%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]u_1 = 5\%[/tex] --- initial rate
[tex]u_2 = 3\%[/tex] --- final rate
Required
The effect on the GDP
To calculate this, we make use of:
[tex]\frac{\triangle Y}{Y} = u_1 - 2\triangle u[/tex]
This gives:
[tex]\frac{\triangle Y}{Y} = 5\% - 2(5\% - 3\%)[/tex]
[tex]\frac{\triangle Y}{Y} = 5\% - 2(2\%)[/tex]
[tex]\frac{\triangle Y}{Y} = 5\% - 4\%[/tex]
[tex]\frac{\triangle Y}{Y} = 1\%[/tex]
This implies that the GDP will increase by 1%
Answer: A. It will increase by 7%.

Find the direction cosines and direction angles of the vector. (Give the direction angles correct to the nearest degree.) c, c, c , where c > 0
Answer:
cos(∝) = 1/√3
cos(β) = 1/√3
cos(γ) = 1/√3
∝ = 55°
β = 55°
γ = 55°
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data in the question;
vector is z = < c,c,c >
the direction cosines and direction angles of the vector = ?
Cosines are the angle made with the respect to the axes.
cos(∝) = z < 1,0,0 > / |z|
so
cos(∝) = < c,c,c > < 1,0,0 > / √[c² + c² + c²] = ( c + 0 + 0 ) / √[ 3c² ]
cos(∝) = c / √[ 3c² ] = c / c√3 = 1/√3
∝ = cos⁻¹( 1/√3 ) = 54.7356° ≈ 55°
cos(β) = < c,c,c > < 0,1,0 > / √[c² + c² + c²] = ( 0 + c + 0 ) / √[ 3c² ]
cos(β) = c / √[ 3c² ] = c / c√3 = 1/√3
β = cos⁻¹( 1/√3 ) = 54.7356° ≈ 55°
cos(γ) = < c,c,c > < 0,0,1 > / √[c² + c² + c²] = ( 0 + 0 + c ) / √[ 3c² ]
cos(γ) = c / √[ 3c² ] = c / c√3 = 1/√3
γ = cos⁻¹( 1/√3 ) = 54.7356° ≈ 55°
Therefore;
cos(∝) = 1/√3
cos(β) = 1/√3
cos(γ) = 1/√3
∝ = 55°
β = 55°
γ = 55°

A senior class of 420 students will rent buses and vans for a class trip. Each bus can transport 50 students and 3 chaperones and costs $1200 to rent. Each van can transport 10 students and 1 chaperone and costs $100 to rent. There are 36 chaperones available (so they can't all go in vans). How many vehicles of each type should be rented in order to minimize the cost
Answer:
37 buses and 1 van.
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost to rent a van is $1200 for 50 students and 3 chaperones, while a bus for 10 students and a chaperone is $100 .
The cost of renting buses for 50 students is $500
What we do is rent 37 buses and 1 van
37 buses will take in 370 students with empty 2 spaces in 2 buses for chaperones since the chaperones are 36.
Then rent 1 van to take in 50 students and 1 chaperone.
The total cost here will be
$3700 + $1200 = $ 4900
This will help to safe cost.

Mrs. Rodger got a weekly raise of $145. If she gets paid every other week, write an integer describing how the raise will affect her paycheck.
Answer:
her salary will increase by $ 145 for every week
Step-by-step explanation:
x=1st paycheck (integer).
weekly raise = $ 145.
After completing the 1st week she will get $ (x+145).
Similarly after completing the 2nd week she will get
$ (x + 145) + $ 145.
= $ (x + 145 + 145)
= $ (x + 290)
So in this way end of every week her salary will increase by $ 145.

Javier volunteers in community events each month. He does not do more than five events in a month. He attends exactly five events 25% of the time, four events 30% of the time, three events 20% of the time, two events 15% of the time, one event 5% of the time, and no events 5% of the time. Find the probability that Javier volunteers for less than three events each month. P (x < 3) = 2 Find the expected number of events Javier volunteers in a month. 3.6 It is given that x must be below a certain value, which limits the rows to use in the PDF table. What is the sum of the probabilities of those rows?
Answer:
[tex]P(x < 3) = 25\%[/tex]
[tex]E(x) = 3[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The given parameters can be represented as:
[tex]\begin{array}{ccccccc}x & {5} & {4} & {3} & {2} & {1}& {0} & P(x) & {25\%} & {30\%} & {20\%} & {15\%} & {5\%} & {5\%} \ \end{array}[/tex]
Solving (a): P(x < 3)
This is calculated as:
[tex]P(x < 3) = P(x = 0) + P(x = 1) + P(x =2)[/tex] ----- i.e. all probabilities less than 3
So, we have:
[tex]P(x < 3) = 5\% + 5\% + 15\%[/tex]
[tex]P(x < 3) = 25\%[/tex]
Solving (b): Expected number of events
This is calculated as:
[tex]E(x) = \sum x * P(x)[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]E(x) = 5 * 25\% + 4 * 30\% + 3 * 20\% + 2 * 15\% + 1 * 5\% + 0 * 5\%[/tex]
[tex]E(x) = 125\% + 120\% + 60\% + 30\% + 5\% + 0\%[/tex]
[tex]E(x) = 340\%[/tex]
Express as decimal
[tex]E(x) = 3.40[/tex]
Approximate to the nearest integer
[tex]E(x) = 3[/tex]

The least-squares regression line has been drawn in on the plot. We would like to predict what the number of juvenile violent crime arrests would be in a state if 25% of children are not in school or in the labor force. This is called
Answer:
Extrapolation
Step-by-step explanation:
From the linear regression plot created in the picture given, se could see that Tha percentage of student covered by the the plot is just above 16%. Therefore, to predict the percentage of the number of juvenile violent crime arrests would be in a state if 25% of children are not in school or in the labor force will require us to assume that the current trend continues into the future. Hence, we use the information and indications we have at present to make prediction into the future based on the assumption that we the current trend will remain relevant and applicable. This assumption into the future based on current trend is called EXTRAPOLATION.

William has been contracted to paint a school classroom. The classroom is 20 m long, 15 m wide and 5 m high. There are four windows (2m by 3m) and a door (2m by 1m). Determine the cost of painting the ceiling at N$ 6.50/m²
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
l -> length
b -> width
h -> height
Find the area of four walls and ceiling. then subtract the area of four windows and a door form that area.
Area of four walls + ceiling = 2( lh + bh) +lb
= 2*(20*5 + 15*5) + 20*15
= 2( 100 + 75) + 300
= 2* 175 + 300
= 350 +300
= 650 sq m
Area of window = 2 *3 = 6 sq.m
Area of four windows = 4*6 = 24 sq.m
Area of door = 2 * 1 = 2 sq.m
Area of four walls excluding 4 windows and door = 650 - 24 - 2 = 624 sq.m
Cost of painting = 624 * 6.50
= $ 4056
Answer: 1950 dollars to paint the ceiling only (ignoring the walls)
The cost to paint the walls only is 2106 dollars.
The cost to paint the walls and ceiling is 4056 dollars.
==================================================
Explanation:
It seems a bit strange how your teacher mentions the windows and doors, but then asks about the ceiling only. Perhaps this is a red herring, but I'm not sure.
Anyway, to directly answer the question, we'll need to find the area of the ceiling first. The ceiling is a rectangle of dimensions 20 m by 15 m, so its area is 20*15 = 300 square meters.
Since paint costs 6.50 dollars per square meter, the total cost for the ceiling alone is 6.50*300 = 1950 dollars
If your teacher only cares about the ceiling, then you can stop here (and ignore the next section below).
---------------------------
If you wanted to find the cost to paint the walls, then we need to find the area of the walls.
For now, ignore the windows and door. Two opposite walls have area of 20*5 = 100 m^2 each. That accounts for 2*100 = 200 m^2 of wall area so far.
The other pair of opposite walls have area 15*5 = 75 m^2 each. That's another 2*75 = 150 m^2 of wall area.
In all, the total wall area without considering the windows or door is 200+150 = 350 m^2.
Now we consider the windows. Each window is 2 m by 3 m, yielding an area of 2*3 = 6 m^2. Four such windows have a total area of 4*6 = 24 m^2.
The door is 2 m by 1 m, so its area is 2*1 = 2 m^2
We'll subtract the wall area and the combined window+door areas to get
wallArea - windowArea - doorArea = 350-24-2 = 324
So after accounting for the windows and door, the amount of wall to paint is 324 m^2, which leads to a cost of 6.50*324 = 2106 dollars.
Therefore, painting the walls and ceiling gets us a total cost of 1950+2106 = 4056 dollars
This section is entirely optional if your teacher only cares about the ceiling.
Describe the motion of a particle with position (x, y) as t varies in the given interval. (For each answer, enter an ordered pair of the form x, y.) x = 1 + sin(t), y = 3 + 2 cos(t), π/2 ≤ t ≤ 2π
Answer:
The motion of the particle describes an ellipse.
Step-by-step explanation:
The characteristics of the motion of the particle is derived by eliminating [tex]t[/tex] in the parametric expressions. Since both expressions are based on trigonometric functions, we proceed to use the following trigonometric identity:
[tex]\cos^{2} t + \sin^{2} t = 1[/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]\cos t = \frac{y-3}{2}[/tex] (2)
[tex]\sin t = x - 1[/tex] (3)
By (2) and (3) in (1):
[tex]\left(\frac{y-3}{2} \right)^{2} + (x-1)^{2} = 1[/tex]
[tex]\frac{(x-1)^{2}}{1}+\frac{(y-3)^{2}}{4} = 1[/tex] (4)
The motion of the particle describes an ellipse.
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.
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.
