Two consecutive even numbers are such that five times the smaller number , subtracted from eight times the bigger gives 58. Find the two Numbers? show working​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]14\text{ and }16[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smaller number be [tex]x[/tex]. Since they are consecutive even numbers, the larger number can be represented by [tex]x+2[/tex].

Therefore, we have the following equation:

[tex]8(x+2)-5x=58,\\8x+16-5x=58,\\3x=42,\\x=\boxed{14}[/tex]

Thus, the larger number is [tex]x+2=\boxed{16}[/tex]

ou want to obtain a sample to estimate a population proportion. At this point in time, you have no reasonable estimate for the population proportion. You would like to be 99% confident that you esimate is within 0.1% of the true population proportion. How large of a sample size is required

Answers

Answer: the required sample size =1658944

Step-by-step explanation:

When the prior population proportion for the study is unknown , then the formula for sample size is [tex]Sample \ size = 0.25(\dfrac{z^*}{Margin\ of \ error})^2[/tex]

z-value for 99% confidence = 2.576

[tex]Sample \ size = 0.25(\dfrac{2.576}{0.001})^2\\\\=0.25(2576)^2\\\\=1658944[/tex]

Solve the system of equations



4x + 2y + 1 = 1
2x − y = 1
x + 3y + z = 1

Answers

Answer:

x = 1/4

y = -1/2

z = 9/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have a system of 3 equations with 3 variables:

4*x + 2*y + 1 = 1

2*x - y = 1

x + 3*y + z = 1

The first step to solve this, is to isolate one of the variables in one of the equations, let's isolate "y" in the second equation:

2*x - y = 1

2*x - 1 = y

Now that we have an expression equivalent to "y", we can replace this in the other two equations:

4*x + 2*(2*x - 1) + 1 = 1

x + 3*(2*x - 1) + z = 1

Now let's simplify these two equations:

8*x - 1 = 1

7*x - 3 + z = 1

Now, in the first equation we have only the variable x, so we can solve that equation to find the value of x:

8*x - 1 = 1

8*x = 1 + 1 = 2

x = 2/8 = 1/4

Now that we know the value of x, we can replace this in the other equation to find the value of z.

7*(1/4) -3 + z = 1

7/4 - 3 + z = 1

z = 1 + 3 - 7/4

z = 4 - 7/4

z = 16/4 - 7/4 = 9/4

z = 9/4

Now we can use the equation y = 2*x - 1 and the value of x to find the value of y:

y = 2*(1/4) - 1

y = 2/4 - 1

y = 1/2 - 1

y = -1/2

Then the solution is:

x = 1/4

y = -1/2

z = 9/4

You can solve this in two ways, firstly by eliminating all the wrong answers, and secondly by just knowing that the horizontal line in [tex]_[/tex][tex]\frac{}{AB}[/tex] means that we are talking about a line.

This is how we solve this question by using the eliminating process.

(A. ∠C) is not the right answer because the ∠ sign lets us know that this answer represents an angle, not a line

(B. B) is not the right answer because it represent a point, not a line (in math we use a singular capital letter to represent points)

(D. ΔABC) is not the right answer because the Δ sign lets us know that the answer represents a triangle, not a line.

On a particular game show, there are 8 covered buckets and 2 of them contain a ball.
To win the game, a contestant must select both buckets that contain a ball. Find the
probability that a contestant wins the game if he/she gets to select 4 of the buckets.

Answers

Answer:

0.2143 = 21.43% probability that a contestant wins the game if he/she gets to select 4 of the buckets.

Step-by-step explanation:

The buckets are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x sucesses is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

In which:

x is the number of sucesses.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

In this question:

8 covered buckets, so N = 8.

4 buckets are selected, so n = 4.

2 contain a ball, which means that k = 2.

Find the probability that a contestant wins the game if he/she gets to select 4 of the buckets.

This is P(X = 2). So

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = h(2,8,4,2) = \frac{C_{2,2}*C_{6,2}}{C_{8,2}} = 0.2143[/tex]

0.2143 = 21.43% probability that a contestant wins the game if he/she gets to select 4 of the buckets.

Answers

Answer:

A) 0.7696

B) 0.0474

C) Yes it's unusual

D) 0.05746

E) No, it is not unusual

F) No, it is not unusual

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a binomial probability distribution question.

We are told that 92.4% of those admitted graduated.

Thus; p = 92.4% = 0.924

From binomial probability distribution, q = 1 - p

Thus;

q = 1 - 0.924

q = 0.076

Formula for binomial probability distribution is;

P(x) = nCx × p^(x) × q^(n - x)

A) At least 11 graduated out of 12.

P(x ≥ 11) = P(11) + P(12)

P(11) = 12C11 × 0.924^(11) × 0.076^(12 - 11)

P(11) = 0.3823

P(12) = 12C12 × 0.924^(12) × 0.076^(12 - 12)

P(12) = 0.3873

P(x ≥ 11) = 0.3823 + 0.3873

P(x ≥ 11) = 0.7696

B) that exactly 9 of them graduated out of 12. This is;

P(9) = 12C9 × 0.924^(9) × 0.076^(12 - 9)

P(9) = 0.0474

C) We are not given significance level here but generally when not given we adopt a significance level of α = 0.05.

Now, exactly 9 out of 12 that graduated which is P(9) = 0.0474.

We see that 0.0474 is less than the significance level of 0.05. Thus, we can say that it is unusual to randomly select 12 students from the special programs and get exactly 9 that graduate

D) that at most 9 of them out of 12 graduated.

P(x ≤ 9) = P(0) + P(1) + P(2) + P(3) + P(4) + P(5) + P(6) + P(7) + P(8) + P(9)

This is going to be very long so I will make use of an online probability calculator to get the values of P(0) to P(8) since I already have P(9) as 0.0474.

Thus, we have;

P(0) = 0

P(1) = 0

P(2) = 0

P(3) = 0.00000001468

P(4) = 0.00000040161

P(5) = 0.00000781232

P(6) = 0.00011081163

P(7) = 0.00115477385

P(8) = 0.00877476184

Thus;

P(x ≤ 9) = 0 + 0 + 0 + 0.00000001468 + 0.00000040161 + 0.00000781232 + 0.00011081163 + 0.00115477385 + 0.00877476184 + 0.04741450256

P(x ≤ 9) = 0.05746

E) P(x ≤ 9) = 0.05746 is more than the significance level of 0.05, thus we will say it is not unusual.

F) from online binomial probability calculator, probability of getting only 9 out of 12 is more than the significance value of 0.05. Thus, we will say it is not unusual

Heart attack   744
Infant birth 3800

Required:
a. Construct a frequency bar graph.
b. Construct a relative frequency distribution.
c. Construct a relative frequency bar graph.
d. Construct a relative frequency Pareto chart.

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Reason \to Frequency[/tex]

[tex]Congestive\ heart\ failure \to 990[/tex]

[tex]Coronary\ atherosclerosis\to 1400[/tex]

[tex]Heart\ attack \to 744[/tex]

[tex]Infant\ birth\to 3800[/tex]

Solving (a): Frequency bar graph

To do this, we simply plot the reasons (on the x-axis) against the frequency (on the y-axis).

See attachment

Solving (b): Relative frequency distribution

The relative frequency is calculated as:

[tex]RF = \frac{F}{Total}[/tex]

Where

[tex]Total = 990+1400+744+3800[/tex]

[tex]Total = 6934[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Congestive\ heart\ failure \to \frac{990}{6934} = 0.1427[/tex]

[tex]Coronary\ atherosclerosis\to \frac{1400}{6934} = 0.2019[/tex]

[tex]Heart\ attack \to \frac{744}{6934} = 0.1073[/tex]

[tex]Infant\ birth\to \frac{3800}{6934} = 0.5481[/tex]

So, the relative distribution is:

[tex]Reason \to Frequency \to Relative\ Frequency[/tex]

[tex]Congestive\ heart\ failure \to 990 \to 0.1427[/tex]

[tex]Coronary\ atherosclerosis\to 1400 \to 0.2019[/tex]

[tex]Heart\ attack \to 744 \to 0.1073[/tex]

[tex]Infant\ birth\to 3800 \to 0.5481[/tex]

Solving (c): Relative frequency bar graph

To do this, we simply plot the reasons (on the x-axis) against the relative frequency (on the y-axis).

See attachment

Solving (d): Relative frequency Pareto chart

First, calculate the cumulative relative frequency

This is done by adding up the previous relative frequency,

So, we have:

[tex]Reason \to Relative\ Frequency \to Cumulative[/tex]

[tex]Congestive\ heart\ failure \to 0.1427 \to 0.1427[/tex]

[tex]Coronary\ atherosclerosis \to 0.2019 \to 0.2019+0.1427=0.3446[/tex]

[tex]Heart\ attack \to 0.1073\to 0.3446+0.1073 = 0.4519[/tex]

[tex]Infant\ birth \to 0.5481 \to 0.5481+4519 =1[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Reason \to Relative\ Frequency \to Cumulative[/tex]

[tex]Congestive\ heart\ failure \to 0.1427 \to 0.1427[/tex]

[tex]Coronary\ atherosclerosis \to 0.2019 \to 0.3446[/tex]

[tex]Heart\ attack \to 0.1073\to 0.4519[/tex]

[tex]Infant\ birth \to 0.5481 \to 1[/tex]

Next, we simply plot the reasons (on the x-axis) against the cumulative relative frequency (on the right) and the left of the Pareto chart.
