Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x=22.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the proportion:

5/x=2/9

Cross multiply. Multiply the numerator (top number) of the first fraction by the denominator (bottom number) of the second. Then multiply the denominator of the first by the numerator of the second.

5*9=2*x

45=2x

2 and x are being multiplied. The opposite of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by 2. This will cancel out the 2 being multiplied by x, and leave x by itself.

45/2=2x/2

45/2=x

22.5=x

If we substitute 22.5 in for x, the final proportion will be:

5/22.5=2/9

A statistician calculates that 8% of Americans own a Rolls Royce. If the statistician is right, what is the probability that the proportion of Rolls Royce owners in a sample of 595 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%

Answers

Answer:

0.007 = 0.7% probability that the proportion of Rolls Royce owners in a sample of 595 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%

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]

A statistician calculates that 8% of Americans own a Rolls Royce.

This means that [tex]p = 0.08[/tex]

Sample of 595:

This means that [tex]n = 595[/tex]

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = p = 0.08[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.08*0.92}{595}} = 0.0111[/tex]

What is the probability that the proportion of Rolls Royce owners in a sample of 595 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%?

Proportion above 8% + 3% = 11% or below 8% - 3% = 5%. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, these probabilities are equal, and so we find one of them and multiply by 2.

Probability the proportion is less than 5%:

P-value of Z when X = 0.05. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.05 - 0.08}{0.0111}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.7[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.7[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0035

2*0.0035 = 0.0070

0.007 = 0.7% probability that the proportion of Rolls Royce owners in a sample of 595 Americans would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%

Dale hikes up a mountain trail at 2 mph. Because Dale hikes at 4 mph downhill, the trip down the mountain takes 30 minutes less time than the trip up, even though the downward trail is 3 miles longer. How many mile did Dale hike in all?

Answers

Answer:

13 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

He hikes 4 mph downhill and it takes 30 minutes or 0.5 hours lesser than the trip uphill at 2 mph.

Thus, if the distance upward is x and we are told the distance downhill is 3 miles longer.

Then, since time = distance/speed, we have;

((x + 3)/4) + 0.5 = x/2

Multiply through by 4 to get;

x + 3 + (0.5 × 4) = 2x

x + 5 = 2x

2x - x = 5

x = 5 miles

Now, it means distance uphill = 5 miles and distance downhill = 5 + 3 = 8 miles

Thus, total distance covered = 8 + 5 = 13 miles

The average revenue collected on this flight is $145/seat. However, if the flight is overbooked and the airline needs to rebook a ticketed passenger, United typically gives the customer a free round-trip ticket for a future flight. The cost of this free round-trip ticket averages $330. By how many seats should United overbook for this route

Answers

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

United Airline flights from Newark to Seattle are typically booked to capacity. However, due to United’s current lenient rebooking policies, on average 17 customers (with a standard deviation of 10) cancel or are no shows for these flights. The average revenue collected on this flight is is $145/seat. However, if the flight is overbooked and the airline needs to rebook a ticketed passenger, United typically gives the customer a free round-trip ticket for a future flight. The cost of this free round-trip ticket averages $330. By how many seats should United overbook for this route?

Answer:

the number of seats that should be overbooked is approximately 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

average = 17 customers

standard deviation = 10

Cost of under booking the flight ( underage ); Cu = $145

Cost of overbooking the flight ( Overage ); Co = $330

we calculate the service level

service level = Cu / ( Cu + Co )

we substitute

Service level = 145 / ( 330 + 145 )

= 145 / 475

Service level = 0.3053

In excel, we use NORMSIV function to determine the z-value

z-value = NORMSIV ( 0.3053 )

z -value = -0.509

Now, the number of seats (Q) that should be overbooked will be;

Q = Average cancellations + Z-value × S.D

we substitute

Q = 17 + ( -0.509 × 10 )

Q = 17 + ( -5.09 )

Q = 17 - 5.09

Q = 11.91 ≈ 12

Therefore, the number of seats that should be overbooked is approximately 12

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is based on " Pythagoras Theorem " . If we imagine the given situation as a right angled triangle , then the base will be " 9ft " , and the perpendicular will be " 13 ft" . And the length of the ladder will be equal to hypontenuse of the triangle.

Using Pythagoras Theorem :-

[tex]\implies\rm h^2= p^2+b^2 \\\\\implies\rm h^2 = (9ft)^2+(13ft)^2 \\\\\implies\rm h^2 = 81 ft^2 + 169 ft^2 \\\\\implies\rm h^2 = 250ft^2 \\\\\implies \boxed{ \rm Ladder's \ Length = 15.81 \ ft }[/tex]

Average rate of change:

33000/6 = 5500

It has been 6 years,

The main difference in profit over 6 years between 1999 and 2005 is,

→ 206000 - 173000

Step-by-step explanation:

I find this approach the most straightforward of the various ways that trinomial factoring is explained or diagramed.

You want two factors of "ac" that have a total of "b". Here, that means you want factors of 2·50 = 100 that have a total of 25. It is helpful to know your times tables.

  100 = 1·100 = 2·50 = 4·25 = 5·20 = 10·10

The sums of these factor pairs are 101, 52, 29, 25, and 20. We want the pair with a sum of 25, so that's 5 and 20.

The trinomial can be rewritten using these factors as ...

  2x^2 +5x +20x +50

Then it can be factored by grouping consecutive pairs:

  (2x^2 +5x) +(20x +50) = x(2x +5) +10(2x +5) = (x +10)(2x +5)

_____

Additional comment

It doesn't matter which of the factors of the pair you write first. If our rewrite were ...

  2x^2 +20x +5x +50

Then the grouping and factoring would be (2x^2 +20x) +(5x +50)

  = 2x(x +10) +5(x +10) = (2x +5)(x +10) . . . . . same factoring

two angles are complementary. The measure of one angle is 15° more than one-half of the measure of the other. Find the measure of each angle.​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to know two definitions. Well, you only have to know one for this problem, but you should probably learn the 2nd just to be thorough.

Definition 1: Complementary angles are two angles whose sum is 90 degrees.

Definition 2: Supplementary angles are two angles whose sum is 180 degrees.

For this problem, we'll work with the definition that says two complementary angles have a sum of 90 degrees.

Soooo, here are the facts from your problem: if one angle is 15 degree more than 2 times the other.find the measure of two angles.

Let's let the larger angle equal this: 15 + 2(x) (<--See how it is 15 degrees MORE than 2 times the other?)

Let's let the smaller angle equal: x

SO now our total equation is:

15 + 2(x) + x = 90

3x + 15 = 90 (combined like terms)

3x = 75 (subtracted 15 from both sides)

x = 25 (divided both sides by 3)

Now we know that one angle is 25. The other angle must add to 25 to make 90 degrees, so 90 - 25 = 65.

Therefore, your two angles are 25 and 65 degrees.

Does this check out? Let's see...

First: 25 + 65 = 90 Therefore, this checks out.

Second: The angle that is 65 degrees must be 15 degrees more than twice the other. So, let's take twice the other...... 25 * 2 = 50. And, let's add 15....50 + 15 = 65. Therefore YES, the 2nd angle is 15 more than 2 times the angle that was 25 degrees.

I hope this is helpful. :-)

The average height of a current NBA player is 79 inches with a standard deviation of 3.4 inches. A random sample of 35 current NBA players is taken. What is the probability that the mean height of the 35 NBA players will be more than 80 inches?

Answers

Answer:

0.0409 = 4.09% probability that the mean height of the 35 NBA players will be more than 80 inches.

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.

The average height of a current NBA player is 79 inches with a standard deviation of 3.4 inches.

This means that [tex]\mu = 79, \sigma = 3.4[/tex]

A random sample of 35 current NBA players is taken.

This means that [tex]n = 35, s = \frac{3.4}{\sqrt{35}}[/tex]

What is the probability that the mean height of the 35 NBA players will be more than 80 inches?

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 80. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{80 - 79}{\frac{3.4}{\sqrt{35}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.74[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.74[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9591

1 - 0.9591 = 0.0409

0.0409 = 4.09% probability that the mean height of the 35 NBA players will be more than 80 inches.
