Part B: If (70)x = 1, what are the possible values of x? Explain your answer. (5 points)
Can you Help Me I NEED ANSWER ASAP!!!
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A: (72)^x = 1
Take the log base 72 of each side
log72(72^x) = log 72(1)
We know log a^b = b log a
x log72(72) = log72(1)
x = log72(1)
x = 0
Part A: (70)^x = 1
Take the log base 70 of each side
log70(70^x) = log70(1)
We know log a^b = b log a
x log70(70) = log70(1)
x = log70(1)
x = 0

what is the prime factorization of 225 in exponent form
Answer:
prime factorization of 225 = 32•52.
Step-by-step explanation:
The number 225 is a composite number so, it is possible to factorize it. 225 can be divided by 1, by itself and at least by 3 and 5.
A composite number is a positive integer that has at least one positive divisor other than one or the number itself. In other words, a composite number is any integer greater than one that is not a prime number.
A study was conducted to determine whether there were significant differences between medical students admitted through special programs (such as retention incentive and guaranteed placement programs) and medical students admitted through the regular admissions criteria. It was found that the graduation rate was 92.4% for the medical students admitted through special programs. Be sure to enter at least 4 digits of accuracy for this problem!
If 12 of the students from the special programs are randomly selected, find the probability that at least 11 of them graduated.
prob =
At least 4 digits!
If 12 of the students from the special programs are randomly selected, find the probability that exactly 9 of them graduated.
prob =
At least 4 digits!
Would it be unusual to randomly select 12 students from the special programs and get exactly 9 that graduate?
no, it is not unusual
yes, it is unusual
If 12 of the students from the special programs are randomly selected, find the probability that at most 9 of them graduated.
prob =
At least 4 digits!
Would it be unusual to randomly select 12 students from the special programs and get at most 9 that graduate?
yes, it is unusual
no, it is not unusual
Would it be unusual to randomly select 12 students from the special programs and get only 9 that graduate?
no, it is not unusual
yes, it is unusual
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
Solve the system of equations
4x + 2y + 1 = 1
2x − y = 1
x + 3y + z = 1
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
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
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]
Hence, the required sample size =1658944

The future value
This is calculated using:
[tex]FV = PV*(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]FV = 800 * (1 + 3.25\%/1)^{2*1}[/tex]
[tex]FV = 800 * (1 + 3.25\%)^{2}[/tex]
[tex]FV = 800 * (1 + 0.0325)^{2}[/tex]
[tex]FV = 800 * (1 .0325)^2[/tex]
[tex]FV = 852.845[/tex]
[tex]FV = 852.8[/tex]
FV =

Answer:
5 batches
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide yesterday's batches by the usual.
(5/6)/(1/6) = 5
Since it only takes 1/6 to make a batch and they used 5x that we know they made 5 batches.
how can i solve the following
2(x + 3) = x - 4
Answer:
x=-10
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x+3)=x-4
2*x+2*3=x-4
2x+6=x-4
2x-x=-4-6
x=-10
Answer:
[tex]x = - 10[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve:
[tex]2(x+3)=x−4[/tex]
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
[tex]2(x+3)=x−4 \\ (2)(x)+(2)(3)=x+−4(Distribute) \\ 2x+6=x+−4 \\ 2x+6=x−4[/tex]
Step 2: Subtract x from both sides.
[tex]2x+6−x=x−4−x \\ x+6=−4[/tex]
Step 3: Subtract 6 from both sides.
[tex]x+6−6=−4−6 \\ x=−10[/tex]

an = -28 + (n-1)(-17)
simplify
an = -17n - 11
Now that we have the formula, we just plug in 66 for n
a66 = -17(66) - 11
a66 = -1133
A person takes a multiple-choice exam in which each question has five possible answers. Suppose that the person has no idea about the answers to three of the questions and simply chooses randomly for each one.
Required:
a. What is the probability that the person will answer all three questions correctly?
b. What is the probability that the person will answer exactly two questions correctly?
c. What is the probability that the person will answer exactly one question correctly?
d. What is the probability that the person will answer no questions correctly?
e. Suppose that the person gets one point of credit for each correct answer and that 1/3 point is deducted for each incorrect answer. What is the expected value of the person’s score for the three questions?
Answer:
a. 0.008 = 0.8% probability that the person will answer all three questions correctly.
b. 0.096 = 9.6% probability that the person will answer exactly two questions correctly.
c. 0.384 = 38.4% probability that the person will answer exactly one question correctly.
d. 0.512 = 51.2% probability that the person will answer no questions correctly.
e. The expected value of the person’s score for the three questions is -0.2.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each question, there are only two possible outcomes. Either the person answers it correctly, or they do not. The probability of a person answering a question correctly is independent of any other question. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [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]
And p is the probability of X happening.
Each question has five possible answers.
Person has no idea which option is correct, so the probability of answering correctly is:
[tex]p = \frac{1}{5} = 0.2[/tex]
Three questions:
This means that [tex]n = 3[/tex]
a. What is the probability that the person will answer all three questions correctly?
This is [tex]P(X = 3)[/tex]. So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.2)^{3}.(0.8)^{0} = 0.008[/tex]
0.008 = 0.8% probability that the person will answer all three questions correctly.
b. What is the probability that the person will answer exactly two questions correctly?
This is [tex]P(X = 2)[/tex]. So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{3,2}.(0.2)^{2}.(0.8)^{1} = 0.096[/tex]
0.096 = 9.6% probability that the person will answer exactly two questions correctly.
c. What is the probability that the person will answer exactly one question correctly?
This is [tex]P(X = 1)[/tex]. So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{3,1}.(0.2)^{1}.(0.8)^{2} = 0.384[/tex]
0.384 = 38.4% probability that the person will answer exactly one question correctly.
d. What is the probability that the person will answer no questions correctly?
This is [tex]P(X = 0)[/tex]. So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{3,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{3} = 0.512[/tex]
0.512 = 51.2% probability that the person will answer no questions correctly.
e. Suppose that the person gets one point of credit for each correct answer and that 1/3 point is deducted for each incorrect answer. What is the expected value of the person’s score for the three questions?
The expected number of correct answer is:
[tex]E(X) = np = 3*0.2 = 0.6[/tex]
And the expected number of wrong answers is 3 - 0.6 = 2.4. So, the expected score is:
[tex]S(x) = 0.6 - \frac{2.4}{3} = 0.6 - 0.8 = -0.2[/tex]
The expected value of the person’s score for the three questions is -0.2.

where is EF to the nearest tenth??
Answer:
37.7
Step-by-step explanation:
EF and ED define the Tangent of D
Tan(37) = side opposite D / side adjacent to D
Opposite means a line (FE) that is not connected to the angle. It is never the longest line (hypotenuse) in a Right Triangle
Adjacent means the leg that is connected to the angle, but is not the hypotenuse.
Tan(D) = opposite over adjacent
Opposite = x
Adjacent = 50
Tan(37) = 0.7536 rounded to 4 places, but I've kept the exact value in my calculator.
0.7536 = x / 50 Multiply both sides by 50
0.7536*50 = x
x = 37.6777
The nearest 1/10 is 37.7
