The tons of gravel and sand that should be purchased each day are:
Sand = 800 tons
Gravel = 700 tons
Step-by-step explanation:
Two ingredients for producing concrete = sand and gravel
Cost of sand per ton = $6
Cost of gravel per ton = $8
Sand and gravel = 75% of the concrete
Therefore 25% (100 - 75%) will be made up of cement and water
Tons of concrete produced each day = 2,000
Sand and gravel = 1,500 (2,000 * 75%)
Sand <= 40% of 2,000 = 800 tons
Gravel => 30% of 2,000 = 700 (1,500 - 800) tons
To minimize costs, 800 tons of gravel and 700 tons of sand should be purchased each day.
Total cost incurred daily for both sand and gravel = $10,400 (800 * $6 + 700 * $8)
Coliform bacteria are randomly distributed in a river at an average concentration of 1 per 20cc of water. What is the variance of the number of Coliform bacteria in a sample of 40cc of water
Answer:
[tex]Var = 1.9[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]p = \frac{1}{20}[/tex] i.e. 1 per 20cc of water
[tex]n = 40[/tex] -- sample size
Required
The variance
This is calculated using:
[tex]Var = np(1 - p)[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]Var = 40 * \frac{1}{20} * (1 - \frac{1}{20})[/tex]
[tex]Var = 40 * \frac{1}{20} * \frac{19}{20}[/tex]
[tex]Var = 2 * \frac{19}{20}[/tex]
[tex]Var = \frac{38}{20}[/tex]
[tex]Var = 1.9[/tex]
Question 5 Multiple Choice Worth 1 points)

Bunny Hill Ski Resort charges $35 for ski rental and $10 an hour to ski. Black Diamond Ski Resort charges $40 for ski rental and $5 an hour to ski. Create an equation to determine at what point
the cost of both ski slopes is the same.
Answer:
Bunny Hill Ski Resort:
y = 10x + 35
Diamond Ski Resort:
y = 5x + 40
Point where the cost is the same:
(1, 45)
Step-by-step explanation:
The question tells us that:
$35 and $40 are initial fees
$10 and $5 are hourly fees
This means that x and y will equal:
x = number of hours
y = total cost of ski rental after a number of hours
So we can form these 2 equations:
y = 10x + 35
y = 5x + 40
Now we are going to use System of Equations to find what point the cost of both ski slopes is the same.
Because they both equal y, we can set the equations equal to each other:
10x + 35 = 5x + 40
And we use basic algebra to solve for x:
10x + 35 = 5x + 40
(subtract 5x from both sides)
5x + 35 = 40
(subtract 35 from both sides)
5x = 5
(divide both sides by 5)
x = 1
Remember, x equals the number of hours.
That means when your rent out the skis for 1 hour, you will get the same price of $45 (you find the price by plugging in 1 into both of the equations)
Hope it helps (●'◡'●)

A random sample of 16 values is drawn from a mound-shaped and symmetric distribution. The sample mean is 12 and the sample standard deviation is 2. Use a level of significance of 0.05 to conduct a two-tailed test of the claim that the population mean is 11.5.
Answer:
we conclude that population mean is not 11.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The hypothesis :
H0 : μ = 11.5
H1 : μ ≠ 11.5
The test statistic :
(xbar - μ) ÷ (s/√(n))
Test statistic = (12 - 11.5) ÷ (2/√(16))
Test statistic = (0.5) ÷ (2 ÷ 4)
Test statistic = 0.5 / 0.5
Test statistic = 1
The Pvalue from test statistic value, df = n - 1 = 16 - 1 = 15
Pvalue = 0.333
Pvalue > α ; we fail to reject the null ; Hence, we conclude that population mean is not 11.5

Find the F test statistic.
Answer:
[tex]F = 39.47[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]n = 30[/tex] --- observations
[tex]p = 1[/tex] -- variables
[tex]SSR = 1,297[/tex]
[tex]SSE= 920[/tex]
Required
The F statistic
This is calculated using:
[tex]F = \frac{SSR}{p} \div \frac{SSE}{n - p -1}[/tex]
[tex]F = \frac{1297}{1} \div \frac{920}{30 - 1 -1}[/tex]
[tex]F = \frac{1297}{1} \div \frac{920}{28}[/tex]
[tex]F = 1297 \div \frac{920}{28}[/tex]
Rewrite as:
[tex]F = 1297 * \frac{28}{920}[/tex]
[tex]F = \frac{1297 *28}{920}[/tex]
[tex]F = \frac{36316}{920}[/tex]

A party supply company makes cone shaped party hats for children using thin cardboard. To the nearest square centimeter, how much cardboard is required to make the party hate use pie = 3.14.
Answer:
A. 754 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount of cardboard needed = surface area of the cone
Curved surface area of the cone = πrl
Where,
π = 3.14
r = ½(20) = 10 cm
l = 24 cm
Plug in the values into the formula
Curved surface area = 3.14 × 10 × 24 = 753.6 ≈ 754 cm²

Answer: 3 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Interest is calculated as:
= (P × R × T) / 100
where
P = principal = 150,000
R = rate = 2.5%.
I = interest = 11250
T = time = unknown.
I = (P × R × T) / 100
11250 = (150000 × 2.5 × T)/100
Cross multiply
1125000 = 375000T
T = 1125000/375000
T = 3
The time taken will be 3 years

g At a certain gas station, 30% of all customers use the restroom. What is the probability that, out of the next 10 customers, (a) exactly 4 will use the restroom
Answer:
[tex]P(x=4) = 0.200[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]n=10[/tex] --- selected customers
[tex]x = 4[/tex] --- those that are expected to use the restroom
[tex]p =30\% = 0.30[/tex] --- proportion that uses the restroom
Required
[tex]P(x = 4)[/tex]
The question illustrates binomial probability and the formula is:
[tex]P(x) = ^nC_x * p^x * (1 - p)^{n - x}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]P(x=4) = ^{10}C_4 * (0.30)^4 * (1 - 0.30)^{10 - 4}[/tex]
[tex]P(x=4) = ^{10}C_4 * (0.30)^4 * (0.70)^6[/tex]
[tex]P(x=4) = 210* (0.30)^4 * (0.70)^6[/tex]
[tex]P(x=4) = 0.200[/tex]
A box contains 5 white balls, 3 black balls, and 2 red balls.A-What is the probability of drawing a white ball?B- How many white balls must be added to the box so that the probability of drawing a white ball is 3/4?C-How many black balls must be added to the original assortment so that the probability of drawing a white ball is 1/4?
Answer:
[tex](a)\ P(White) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
(b) 10 additional white balls
(c) 10 additional black balls
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]White = 5[/tex]
[tex]Black =3[/tex]
[tex]Red = 2[/tex]
Solving (a): P(White)
This is calculated as:
[tex]P(White) = \frac{White}{Total}[/tex]
[tex]P(White) = \frac{5}{5+3+2}[/tex]
[tex]P(White) = \frac{5}{10}[/tex]
[tex]P(White) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Solving (b): Additional white balls, if [tex]P(White) = \frac{3}{4}[/tex]
Let the additional white balls be x
So:
[tex]P(White) = \frac{White+x}{Total+x}[/tex]
This gives:
[tex]\frac{3}{4} = \frac{5+x}{10+x}[/tex]
Cross multiply
[tex]30+3x = 20 + 4x[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]4x - 3x = 30 - 20[/tex]
[tex]x = 10[/tex]
Hence, 10 additional white balls must be added
Solving (c): Additional black balls, if [tex]P(White) = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]
Let the additional black balls be x
So:
[tex]P(White) = \frac{White}{Total+x}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\frac{1}{4} = \frac{5}{10+x}[/tex]
Cross multiply
[tex]10+x = 5 * 4[/tex]
[tex]10+x = 20[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]x = 20 -10[/tex]
[tex]x = 10[/tex]
Hence, 10 additional black balls must be added

O B. y + 5 = 2(x + 2)
O C. y + 5 = -2(x + 2)
OD. y- 5 = 2(x - 2)
Answer:
B. [tex] y + 5 = 2(x + 2) [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Point-slope equation is given as [tex] y - b = m(x - a) [/tex], where,
(a, b) = (-2, -5)
[tex] m = slope = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} [/tex]
Using two points on the line (-2, -5) and (0, -1),
Slope (m) = (-1 -(-5))/(0 -(-2)) = 4/2
m = 2
✔️To write the equation in point-slope form, substitute a = -2, b = -5, and m = 2 into [tex] y - b = m(x - a) [/tex]
Thus:
[tex] y - (-5) = 2(x - (-2)) [/tex]
[tex] y + 5 = 2(x + 2) [/tex]

Suppose 46% of politicians are lawyers. If a random sample of size 662 is selected, what is the probability that the proportion of politicians who are lawyers will differ from the total politicians proportion by less than 4%
Answer:
0.9606 = 96.06% probability that the proportion of politicians who are lawyers will differ from the total politicians proportion by less than 4%
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]
Suppose 46% of politicians are lawyers.
This means that [tex]p = 0.46[/tex]
Sample of size 662
This means that [tex]n = 662[/tex]
Mean and standard deviation:
[tex]\mu = p = 0.46[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.46*0.54}{662}} = 0.0194[/tex]
What is the probability that the proportion of politicians who are lawyers will differ from the total politicians proportion by less than 4%?
p-value of Z when X = 0.46 + 0.04 = 0.5 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.46 - 0.04 = 0.42. So
X = 0.5
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{0.5 - 0.46}{0.0194}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.06[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.06[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9803
X = 0.42
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{0.42 - 0.46}{0.0194}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.06[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.06[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0197
0.9803 - 0.0197 = 0.9606
0.9606 = 96.06% probability that the proportion of politicians who are lawyers will differ from the total politicians proportion by less than 4%
If the angles (4x + 4)° and (6x – 4)° are the supplementary angles, find the value of x.
Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
Supplementary angles means sum of angles is 180.
4x + 4 + 6x - 4 = 180
4x + 6x + 4 - 4 = 180
10x = 180
x = 180 / 10
x = 18
Answer:
x=18 degree
Step-by-step explanation:
If they are supplementary angles, then their sum = 180 degree
4x+4 + 6x-4 =180
4x+6x + 4-4 = 180
10x = 180
x=180/10
x=18
If m and n are positive integers and m^2 - n^2 = 9, which of the following could be the value of
n?
A) 1
B) 16
C) 9
D) 4
Answer:
4
Problem:
If m and n are positive integers and m^2 - n^2 = 9, which of the following could be the value of
n?
A) 1
B) 16
C) 9
D) 4
Step-by-step explanation:
One approach would be to plug in the choices and see.
If n=1, then we have m^2-1=9.
This would give m^2=10 after adding 1 on both sides. There is no integer m when squared would give us 10. ( Square root of 9 is a decimal )
If n=16, then we would have m^2-256=9.
This would give m^2=265 after adding 256 on both sides. There is no integer m when squared would give us 265. ( Square root of 265 is a decimal )
If n=9, then we would have m^2-81=9.
This would give m^2=90 after adding 81 on both sides. There is no integer m when squared would give us 90. ( Square root of 90 is a decimal )
If n=4, then we would have m^2-16=9.
This would give m^2=25 after adding 16 on both sides. There is an integer m when squared would give us 25. ( Square root of 25 is a 5)

Allie rode her bike up a hill at an average speed of 12 feet/second. She then rode back down the hill at an average speed of 60 feet/second. The entire trip took her 2 minutes. What is the total distance she traveled. [Hint: use t = time traveling down the hill]
Answer:
The total distance Allie traveled was 0.81 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Allie rode her bike up a hill at an average speed of 12 feet / second, and she then rode back down the hill at an average speed of 60 feet / second, and the entire trip took her 2 minutes, to determine what is the total distance she traveled, the following calculation must be performed:
12 + 60 = 72
72 x 60 = 4320
1000 feet = 0.189394 miles
4320 feet = 0.8181818 miles
Therefore, the total distance Allie traveled was 0.81 miles.
