There is a triangular number that has 55 dots in its shape. Which one is it? Write your answer as a number.

The triangular number that has 55 dots in its shape is the
-th triangular number.

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  10

Step-by-step explanation:

The n-th triangular number is given by ...

  t(n) = n(n+1)/2

We went to find n when t(n) = 55.

  55 = n(n+1)/2

  110 = n(n+1)

Adding 1/4 completes the square.

  110.25 = (n +0.5)^2

  √110.25 = n+0.5 . . . . . we are interested in the positive value of n

  n = 10.5 -0.5 = 10

The triangular number that has 55 dots in its shape is the 10-th number.

__

Additional comment

Here, we have gone to the trouble to formally complete the square to find the value of n. You may realize that it isn't really necessary to go to that trouble.

A reasonable estimate of the value of n is possible by considering that the product n(n+1) is a little more than n², so the value of n will be a little less than √110 ≈ 10.49. The nearest integer is 10, which is the answer we're looking for.

Home sizes in Anytown, USA have a mean of 2400 square feet and a standard deviation of 450 square feet. What is the probability that a random sample of 50 homes in Anytown, USA has mean square footage less than 2200 square feet

Answers

Answer:

0.00084

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Mean,[tex]\mu=2400[/tex] square feet

Standard deviation, [tex]\sigma=450[/tex]square feet

n=50

We have to find the probability that a random sample of 50 homes in Anytown, USA has mean square footage less than 2200 square feet.

[tex]P(x<2200)=P(\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}<P(\frac{2200-2400}{\frac{450}{\sqrt{50}}})[/tex]

[tex]P(x<2200)=P(Z<\frac{-200}{\frac{450}{\sqrt{50}}})[/tex]

Using the formula

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]P(x<2200)=P(Z<-3.14)[/tex]

[tex]P(X<2200)=0.00084[/tex]

Hence, the probability that a random sample of 50 homes in Anytown, USA has mean square footage less than 2200 square feet=0.00084

The cost function in a computer manufacturing plant is C(x) = 0.28x^2-0.7x+1, where C(x) is the cost per hour in millions of dollars and x is the number of items produced per hour in thousands. Determine the minimum production cost.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $562,500 per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost will be a minimum where C'(x) = 0.

 C'(x) = 0.56x -0.7 = 0

  x = 0.7/0.56 = 1.25

The cost at that production point is ...

  C(1.25) = (0.28×1.25 -0.7)1.25 +1 = -0.35×1.25 +1 = 0.5625

The minimum production cost is $562,500 per hour for production of 1250 items per hour.

_____

Additional comment

This is different than the minimum cost per item. This level of production gives a per-item cost of $450. The minimum cost per item is $358.30 at a production level of 1890 per hour.

The value of a car will “depreciate” over time. For example, a car that was worth $24 000 when it was new, is being sold for $13 500 three years later. Determine the annual depreciation rate on this car. Express your final answer as a percent, rounded to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

The car will depreciate at a rate of 21.14% per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the value of a car will “depreciate” over time, and, for example, a car that was worth $ 24,000 when it was new, is being sold for $ 13,500 three years later, to determine the annual depreciation rate on this car the following calculation must be performed:

13,500 x (1 + X) ^ 1x3 = 24,000

13,500 x (1 + 0.2114) ^ 3 = 24,000

X = 21.14%

Therefore, the car will depreciate at a rate of 21.14% per year.

Answer:

  33.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

The selling price of £42 is (1 +40%) times the total purchase price.

  1.40 × purchase price = £42

  purchase price = £42/1.40 = £30

The total profit is 40% of this, so is ...

  £30 × 40% = £12

The purchase price of the skirt is ...

  total cost - glove cost = skirt cost = £30 -3 = £27

The profit on the skirt is ...

  total profit - glove profit = skirt profit = £12 -100% × £3 = £9

Then the percentage profit on the skirt is ...

  skirt profit % = skirt profit / skirt cost × 100% = £9/£27 × 100% = 33.3%

The percentage profit on the cost of the skirt was 33.3%.

A set of solar batteries is used in a research satellite. The satellite can run on only one battery, but it runs best if more than one battery is used. The variance σ2 of lifetimes of these batteries affects the useful lifetime of the satellite before it goes dead. If the variance is too small, all the batteries will tend to die at once. Why? If the variance is too large, the batteries are simply not dependable. Why? Engineers have determined that a variance of σ2 = 23 months (squared) is most desirable for these batteries. A random sample of 30 batteries gave a sample variance of 16.3 months (squared). Using a 0.05 level of significance, test the claim that σ2 = 23 against the claim that σ2 is different from 23.

Answers

Answer:

(a) 129600 J

(b) 81000 J

Step-by-step explanation:

The work done is given by the product of force and the displacement in the direction of force.

Force, F = 500 N

distance, d = 324 m

(a) friction force, f = 100 N

The work done is

W = (F - f) x d

W = (500 - 100) x 324

W = 129600 J

(b) Friction, f = 250 N

The work done is

W = (F - f) d

W = (500 - 250) x 324

W = 81000 J

2/3x - 1+1 = 27/8+1

2/3x = 27/8 + 8/8

Step-by-step explanation:

We want ...

  C(x)/x < 100

  (20x +160)/x < 100

  20 +160/x < 100 . . . . . separate the terms on the left

  160/x < 80 . . . . . . . subtract 20

  160/80 < x . . . . . multiply by x/80 . . . . . assumes x > 0

  x > 2 . . . . . . simplify

In interval notation this is (2, ∞).   matches choice A

__

Technically (mathematically), we also have ...

  160/80 > x . . . . and x < 0

which simplifies to x < 0, or the interval (-∞, 0).

If we include this solution, then choice C is the correct one.

_____

Comment on the solution

Since we are using x to count physical items, we want to assume that the practical domain of C(x) is whole numbers, where x ≥ 0, so this second interval is not in the domain of C(x). That is, the average cost of a negative number of items is meaningless.

There are 84 students in a speech contest. Yesterday, 1/4 of them gave their speeches. Today, 3/7 of the remaining students gave their speeches. How many students still haven't given their speeches?

Answers

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

Total students un the contest = 84

Number of students who gave their speech yesterday:-

[tex] \frac{1}{4} \: of \: total \\ = \frac{1}{4} \times 84 \\ = 21[/tex]

so 21 students gave their speech yesterday

remaining students = 84 - 21

= 63

Number of students who gave their speech today:-

[tex] \frac{3}{7} \: of \: remaining \\ = \frac{3}{7} \times 63 \\ = 27[/tex]

Number of students who have given their speech:-

= 21 + 27

= 48

Number of students who still haven't given their speech :-

= total - 48

= 84 - 48

= 36
