Use a property of equality to solve the equation
- 2a/5 = 13/15

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a = -13/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply both sides by the same number (15).  This clears out the fractions:

     -2a             13

15 -------- = 15 ----------

        5               15

Then we have -2a(3) = 13, or

                          -6a    = 13, or

                              a = -13/6

Answer:

a. The researcher makes sure that the proportion of respondents from each state matches the proportion of each state's population to the US population.

b. The researcher gets the complete list from the Census Bureau and surveys every 1500th person on the list.

c. The researcher gets the complete list from the Census Bureau and uses a computer to randomly select 2000 people.

d. The researcher picks 20 different small groups:a church group a Democrat club a student club etc. each containing 100 people. Then the researcher makes sure that everyone from each group answers the survey question.

e. The researcher posts the survey on the Internet the survey question and waits until 2000 people have responded.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Samples may be classified as:

Convenient: Sample drawn from a conveniently available pool.

Random: Basically, put all the options into a hat and drawn some of them.

Systematic: Every kth element is taken. For example, you want to survey something on the street, you interview every 5th person, for example.

Cluster: Divides population into groups, called clusters, and each element in the cluster is surveyed.

Stratified: Also divides the population into groups. However, then only some elements of the group are surveyed.

The researcher posts the survey on the Internet the survey question and waits until 2000 people have responded.  

First 2000, so convenience.

The researcher gets the complete list from the Census Bureau and surveys every 1500th person on the list.

Every kth element, k = 1500, so systematic.

The researcher gets the complete list from the Census Bureau and uses a computer to randomly select 2000 people.

Randomly selects 2000 people, so random sampling.

The researcher makes sure that the proportion of respondents from each state matches the proportion of each state's population to the US population.

Divides the population into groups(by state), and a few members of each group are surveyed, so stratified.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Identify

7x - 18 = 4x + 21

Step 2: Solve for x

[Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 4x on both sides:                      3x - 18 = 21[Addition Property of Equality] Add 18 on both sides:                                    3x = 39[Division Property of Equality] Divide 3 on both sides:                                   x = 13

Answer:

x = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

7 x - 18 = 4 x + 21

Subtract 4x on both side

7x - 4 x - 18 = 4x - 4x + 21

3 x - 18 = 21

Add 18 on each side

3 x - 18 + 18 = 21 + 18

3 x = 39

Divided each side by 3

3 x / 3 = 39 / 3

x = 13

Company A is trying to sell its website to Company B. As part of the sale, Company A claims that the average user of their site stays on the site for 10 minutes. To test this claim Company B collects the times (in minutes) below for a sample of 12 users. Assume normality. Assignment 6q3 data Construct a 94% confidence interval for the true mean time spent on the web site. a) What is the lower limit of the 94% interval

Answers

Answer:

[tex]L = 3.975[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See comment for data

Required

The lower limit 94% confidence interval

First, calculate the mean

[tex]\bar x =\frac{\sum x}{n}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x =\frac{0.9+10+0.9+8.7+4.8+2.6+1+13.3+9.5+8.9+8.9+4.6}{12}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x =\frac{74.1}{12}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x =6.175[/tex]

Next, calculate the standard deviation using:

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum(x - \bar x)^2}{n}}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{(0.9 - 6.175)^2 +(10- 6.175)^2 +.................+(8.9- 6.175)^2 +(4.6- 6.175)^2}{12}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{197.2625}{12}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{16.4385416667}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = 4.054[/tex]

For 94% interval, the z score is

[tex]z = 1.88[/tex]

So, the margin of error (E) is:

[tex]E = z * \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt n}[/tex]

[tex]E = 1.88 * \frac{4.054}{\sqrt {12}}[/tex]

[tex]E = 1.88 * \frac{4.054}{3.464}[/tex]

[tex]E = 2.200[/tex]

The confidence interval of the true mean is:

[tex]CI = (\bar x \± E)[/tex]

The lower limit (L) is:

[tex]L = \bar x -E[/tex]

[tex]L = 6.175 -2.200[/tex]

[tex]L = 3.975[/tex]

and the upper limit (U) is

[tex]U = \bar x + E[/tex]

[tex]U = 6.175 + 2.200[/tex]

[tex]U = 8.375[/tex]

The lower limit is 3.975 and the upper limit is 8.375. Then the confidence interval for the true mean is (3.975, 8.375).

What is the margin of error?

The probability or the chances of error while choosing or calculating a sample in a survey is called the margin of error.

Company A is trying to sell its website to Company B. As part of the sale, Company A claims that the average user of their site stays on the site for 10 minutes.

To test this claim Company B collects the times (in minutes) below for a sample of 12 users.

Assume normality. Assignment 6q3 data Construct a 94% confidence interval for the true mean time spent on the website.

z-value for 94% of confidence level is 1.88.

z = 1.88

The mean will be

[tex]\mu = \dfrac{\Sigma x}{n}\\\\\mu = \dfrac{0.9+10+0.9+8.7+8.4+2.6+1+13.3+9.5+8.9+8.9+4.6}{12}\\\\\mu = \dfrac{74.1}{12}\\\\\mu = 6.175[/tex]

Then the stabndard devistion will be

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{ \dfrac{\Sigma (x - \mu )^2}{n}}\\\\\sigma = \sqrt{ \dfrac{\Sigma (0.9-6.175 )^2+(10-6.175 )^2+...+(4.6-6.175 )^2}{12}}\\\\\sigma = \sqrt{ \dfrac{197.2625}{12}}\\\\\sigma = \sqrt{16.438}\\\\\sigma = 4.054[/tex]

The margin of error (E) will be

[tex]E = z*\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\E = 1.88*\dfrac{4.054}{\sqrt{12}}\\\\E = 2.200[/tex]

Then the confidence interval of the true mean will be

[tex]CI = (\mu \pm E)[/tex]

The lower limit (L) will be

[tex]L = \mu - E \\\\L = 6.175 - 2.200\\\\L = 3.975[/tex]

The upper limit (U) will be

[tex]U = \mu + E \\\\U = 6.175 + 2.200\\\\U = 8.375[/tex]

At a basketball game, a vender sold a combined total of 200 sodas and hot dogs. The number of sodas sold was three times the number of hot dogs sold. Find the number of sodas and the number of hot dogs sold.

Answers

Answer:

50 hot dogs

150 sodas

Step-by-step explanation:

set up a system of equations where 'h' = # hot dogs sold and '3h' = # sodas sold

h + s = 200

s = 3h

h + 3h = 200

4h = 200

h = 50

s = 200-50 or 150

A new medical test has been designed to detect the presence of the mysterious Brainlesserian disease. Among those who have the disease, the probability that the disease will be detected by the new test is 0.7. However, the probability that the test will erroneously indicate the presence of the disease in those who do not actually have it is 0.02. It is estimated that 20 % of the population who take this test have the disease. If the test administered to an individual is positive, what is the probability that the person actually has the disease

Answers

Answer:

0.8974 = 89.74% probability that the person actually has the disease.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Positive test.

Event B: Has the disease.

Probability of a positive test:

0.7 of 0.2(has the disease).

0.02 of 100 - 20 = 80%(does not have the disease). Thus:

[tex]P(A) = 0.7*0.2 + 0.02*0.8 = 0.156[/tex]

Probability of a positive test and having the disease:

0.7 of 0.2. So

[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.7*0.2 = 0.14[/tex]

What is the probability that the person actually has the disease?

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.14}{0.156} = 0.8974[/tex]

0.8974 = 89.74% probability that the person actually has the disease.

The monthly cost of driving a car depends on the number of miles driven. Lynn found that in May it cost her $420 to drive 500 mi and in June it cost her $444 to drive 620 mi. (a) Express the monthly cost C as a function of the distance driven d, assuming that a linear relationship gives a suitable model. C(d)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]C(d) = \frac{1}{5}d + 320[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]d \to miles[/tex]

[tex]C \to cost[/tex]

So:

[tex](d_1,C_1) = (500,420)[/tex] --- May

[tex](d_2,C_2) = (620,444)[/tex] --- June

Required

Express as a function

Start by calculating the slope (m)

[tex]m = \frac{\triangle C}{\triangle d}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{444-420}{620-500}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{24}{120}[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]m = \frac{1}{5}[/tex]

The equation is:

[tex]C(d) = m(d - d_1) +C_1[/tex]

[tex]C(d) = \frac{1}{5}(d - 500) +420[/tex]

[tex]C(d) = \frac{1}{5}d - 100 +420[/tex]

% compounded continuously. After 17 years, how much more money would Serenity have in her account than Avery, to the nearest dollar?

Answers

After 17 years, Serenity has $778 more than Avery

The formula for calculating the compound amount is expressed according to the formula;

[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}\\[/tex]

For Avery;

P = $3,800

rate = 5 1/2 % = 0.055

time = 17 years

n = 12 (monthly compounding)

Substitute into the formula to have:

[tex]A=3800(1+\frac{0.055}{12} )^{12(17)}\\A=3800(1+0.00458)^{204}\\A=3800(1.00458)^{204}\\A=3800(2.5401)\\A = \$9,652.22[/tex]

Hence the amount that will be in Avery's account after 17years is $9,652

For Serenity;

P = $3,800

rate = 6 1/8 % = 0.06125

time = 17 years

n = 1 (continuous compounding)

Substitute into the formula to have:

[tex]A=3800(1+\frac{0.06125}{1} )^{1(17)}\\A=3800(1+0.06125)^{17}\\A=3800(1.06125)^{17}\\A=3800(2.7473)\\A = \$10,439.62[/tex]

Hence the amount that will be in Serenity's account after 17years is $10,430.

Amount Serenity have more than Avery = $10,430 - $9652 = $778
