Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  250

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'a' represent the number of adult tickets.

  a +(a -73) = 427

  2a = 500 . . . . . add 73

  a = 250 . . . . . . divide by 2

250 adult tickets were sold.

I call this a "sum and difference problem" because we are given the total of two values and the difference between them. As you can see here, the larger of the two values is the average of the given numbers, their sum divided by 2. This is the generic solution to such a problem: the larger number is the average of the given sum and difference.

Julio has a net pay of $ 537.00 each paycheck. He pays $ 142.00 in pre-tax deductions and taxes each paycheck. What is Julio's gross income before the tax deductions?

Answers

Answer:

Julio's gross income before the tax deductions is $ 405.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Julio has a net pay of $ 537.00 each paycheck, and he pays $ 142.00 in pre-tax deductions and taxes each paycheck, to determine what is Julio's gross income before the tax deductions the following calculation must be performed:

547 - 142 = X

405 = X

Therefore, Julio's gross income before the tax deductions is $ 405.

A researcher wishes to estimate the proportion of adults who have​ high-speed Internet access. What size sample should be obtained if she wishes the estimate to be within with ​% confidence if ​(a) she uses a previous estimate of ​? ​(b) she does not use any prior​ estimates?

Answers

Answer:

732 samples ;

752 samples

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

α = 90% ; M.E = 0.03 ; p = 0.58 ; 1 - p = 1 - 0.58 = 0.42

Using the relation :

n = (Z² * p * (1 - p)) / M.E²

Zcritical at 90% = 1.645

n = (1.645² * 0.58 * 0.42) / 0.03²

n = 0.65918769 / 0.0009

n = 732.43076

n = 732 samples

B.)

If no prior estimate is given, then p = 0.5 ; 1 - p = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5

n = (Z² * p * (1 - p)) / M.E²

Zcritical at 90% = 1.645

n = (1.645² * 0.5 * 0.5) / 0.03²

n = 0.67650625 / 0.0009

n = 751.67361

n = 752 samples

An office manager booked 55 airline tickets. He booked 6 more tickets on Airline A than Airline B. On Airline C, he booked 5 more than twice as many tickets as on Airline B. How many tickets did he book on each Airline?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

A: 17B: 11C: 27

Step-by-step explanation:

If we let a, b, c represent tickets booked on airlines A, B, C, respectively, then we have ...

  a + b + c = 55

  a - b = 6

  -2b + c = 5

Using the last two equations to write expressions for a and c, we have ...

  a = b +6

  c = 5 +2b

These can be substituted into the first equation to give ...

  (b +6) +b +(5 +2b) = 55

  4b +11 = 55

  4b = 44

  b = 11

  a = b+6 = 17

  c = 5 +2b = 27

He booked 17 tickets on Airline A, 11 tickets on Airline B, and 27 tickets on Airline C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Positions that are n be awarded = First, Second, Third

Number of contestants who could be first = 12 (all 12 contestants)

Number of contestants who could be second = 11 (all 12 contestants - first)

Number of contestants who could be third = 10 (all 12 contestants - first and second )

The credit department of Lion's Department Store in Anaheim, California, reported that 30% of their sales are cash, 30% are paid with a credit card, and 40% with a debit card. Twenty percent of the cash purchases, 90% of the credit card purchases, and 60% of the debit card purchases are for more than $50. Ms. Tina Stevens just purchased a new dress that cost $120. What is the probability that she paid cash?

Answers

Answer:

Hence the probability that she paid cash is  0.105

Step-by-step explanation:  

P(cash) = 0.3  

P(credit card ) = 0.3  

P(debit card ) = 0.4  

P ( more than $50 | cash ) = 0.2  

P (more than $50 | credit card ) =0.9  

P (more than $ 50 |debit card ) = 0.6  

P ( more than $50) = P ( more than $50 | cash )* P (cash) + P (more than $50 credit card ) * P(credit card ) + P (more than $ 50 |debit card )* P(debit card )  

= 0.2 * 0.3 + 0.9 * 0.3 + 0.6* 0.4  

= 0.57  

P ( more than $50) = P ( more than $50 | cash )* P (cash) / P ( more than $50)  

= 0.2* 0.3 / 0.57  

= 0.105

There is not enough information to determine the mean, the median is 28.

There is not enough information to determine the mean absolute deviation, the interquartile range is 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The box plot given has a skewed distribution, this means that both the mean and median values are not the same. From a box plot, the median value Can be obtained as the point in between the box.

From the box plot given, the marked point in between the box is 28 cm

Hence, Median = 28 cm

The mean cannot be inferred from the skewed box plot.

There is also not enough information to determine the mean absolute deviation ;

The interquartile range:

(Q3 - Q1)

Q3 = upper quartile, the endpoint of the box = 40

Q1 = the starting point of the box = 22

IQR = Q3 - Q1

IQR = 40 - 22 = 18

13 A traffic roundabout has a circular garden
in the centre and two lanes for traffic
encircling the garden. The diameter of the
garden is 16 metres and each lane is 3 metres
wide. Each lane is to be resurfaced. Calculate
the area to be resurfaced. Answer in square
metres to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The area to be resurfaced is the area of the

whole circle including garden and lanes minus  

the area of the garden.

 

Area of a circle is (pi)r2

 

radius of garden is (1/2)diameter = 8 m

Garden area:  (pi)82 = 64(pi) m2

 

Diameter of garden plus traffic lanes is

16 + 2(6) because we add 6 m to both sides

of the diameter of the garden.

Full diameter = 16+12 = 28 m

Full radius = 28/2 = 14 m

Full area:  (pi)142 = 196(pi) m2

 

Area to be resurfaced:

196(pi) - 64(pi) = 132(pi) m2  ≅ 415 m2

Find cos(2x) from the given information. tan(x)= 9/8, x in quadrant I

Answers

Answer:

cos2x=-17/145

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall cos2x=cos^2x-sin^2x

Or cos2x=cos^2x-(1-cos^2x)*

Or cos2x=2cos^2x-1**

*By a Pythagorean Identity

**Combined like terms

I'm going to use third identity from above because I only have to find cosx or cos^2x to get requested answer for cos2x.

Recall Pythagorean identity 1+tan^2x=sec^2x.

Plug in our tangent valuem...

1+(9/8)^2=sec^2x

1+81/64=sec^2x

145/64=sec^2x

Cosine and secant are reciprocals of each other.

64/145=cos^2x

Now we are ready to plug in and get final answer:

cos2x=2cos^2x-1

cos2x=2(64/145)-1

cos2x=128/145-1

he radioactive element​ carbon-14 has a​ half-life of 5750 years. A scientist determined that the bones from a mastodon had lost 77.8 ​% of their​ carbon-14. How old were the bones at the time they were​ discovered?

Answers

Answer:

The bones were 12,485 years old at the time they were​ discovered.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of the element:

The amount of the element after t years is given by the following equation, considering the decay rate proportional to the amount present:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-kt}[/tex]

In which A(0) is the initial amount and k is the decay rate, as a decimal.

The radioactive element​ carbon-14 has a​ half-life of 5750 years.

This means that [tex]A(5750) = 0.5A(0)[/tex], and we use this to find k. So

[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-kt}[/tex]

[tex]0.5A(0) = A(0)e^{-5750k}[/tex]

[tex]e^{-5750k} = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{-5750k}} = \ln{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]-5750k = \ln{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]k = -\frac{\ln{0.5}}{5750}[/tex]

[tex]k = 0.00012054733[/tex]

So

[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-0.00012054733t}[/tex]

A scientist determined that the bones from a mastodon had lost 77.8 ​% of their​ carbon-14. How old were the bones at the time they were​ discovered?

Had 100 - 77.8 = 22.2% remaining, so this is t for which:

[tex]A(t) = 0.222A(0)[/tex]

Then

[tex]0.222A(0) = A(0)e^{-0.00012054733t}[/tex]

[tex]e^{-0.00012054733t} = 0.222[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{-0.00012054733t}} = \ln{0.222}[/tex]

[tex]-0.00012054733t = \ln{0.222}[/tex]

[tex]t = -\frac{\ln{0.222}}{0.00012054733}[/tex]

[tex]t = 12485[/tex]

The bones were 12,485 years old at the time they were​ discovered.
