What is the decay factor that corresponds to a product that decreases its value first by 20%, and than decreases by 40% of its value, and finally decreases by 62% of its value?
a.
0.22
c.
0.1824
b.
0.0496
d.
0.62

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

c.

0.1824

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the decay factor is as follows;

= (1 - decrease percentage) × (1 - decrease percentage) × (1 - decrease percentage)

= (1 - 0.2) × (1 - 0.4) × (1 - 0.62)

= (0.8) × (0.6) × (0.38)

= 0.1824

hence, the decay factor is 0.1824

Therefore the option c is correct

To evaluate whether or not the intake of a vitamin or mineral is adequate, comparisons are made between the intake distribution and the requirement distribution. Here is some information about the distribution of vitamin C intake, in milligrams per day, for women aged 19 to 30 years:

Percentile (mg/d)
Mean 1st 5th 19th 25th 50th 75th 90th 95th 99th
84.2 31 43 47 60 79 103 126 141 180

Use the 5th, the 50th, and the 95th percentiles of this distribution to estimate the mean (±0.01) and standard deviation (±0.01) of this distribution assuming that the distribution is Normal.

μ = _________
σ = _________

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Mean=79[/tex]

[tex]\sigma=30.3951.[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

[tex]Age Bracket :19-20[/tex]

[tex]5th\ percentile = 42[/tex]  

[tex]50th\ percentile = 79[/tex]  

[tex]95th\ percentile = 142.[/tex]

Generally the mean Median and mode of the 50th percentile is are all equal

[tex]Mean=Median=Mode[/tex]

Therefore

[tex]Mean=79[/tex]

Generally for Normal distribution

[tex]5th\ percentile\ = mean - 1.645*\sigma[/tex]  

[tex]95th\ percentile\ = mean + 1.645*\sigma[/tex]

Therefore

[tex](95th\ percentile\ - 5th\ percentile) = 2*(1.645*SD).[/tex]

[tex]\sigma=(95th\ percentile\ - 5th\ percentile)/3.29[/tex]

[tex]\sigma=\frac{142-42}{3.29}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma=30.3951.[/tex]

If you use 128m of fencing, what is the largest possible rectangular area you can enclose? What is
the smallest? (Assume all lengths are whole numbers.)

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

largest: 1024 m²smallest: 0 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

The largest rectangular area with a given perimeter is a square. Each side of the square will be 1/4 of the fence, or 32 m.

The largest enclosed area is (32 m)² = 1024 m².

__

The smallest area will be that of an enclosure consisting of a double-row of fence: 64 m long and 0 m wide.

The smallest enclosed area is (64 m)(0 m) = 0 m².

_____

"Whole numbers" include zero. If you want the lengths to be Natural numbers, then the smallest area will be 63 m long and 1 m wide, or 63 m².

Answer:

$3700 at 1%$3300 at 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

For "mixture" problems, I like to let the variable represent the amount of the largest contributor. Here, we can let x represent the amount invested at 5%. Then the amount invested at 1% is (7000-x). The total interest earned is ...

  0.05x +0.01(7000 -x) = 202

  0.04x = 132 . . . . . . . . simplify, subtract 70

  x = 3300

  (7000 -x) = 7000 -3300 = 3700 . . . . at 1%

$3700 was invested at 1% interest.

$3300 was invested at 5% interest.

Step-by-step explanation:

A company hopes to improve customer satisfaction, setting a goal of less than 5% negative comments. A random survey of 850 customers found only 34 with complaints. Does this provide evidence at the 10% significance level that the company has reached its goal of decreasing the percentage of complaints

Answers

Answer:

The p-value of the test is 0.0901 < 0.1, which means that this provides evidence at the 10% significance level that the company has reached its goal of decreasing the percentage of complaints.

Step-by-step explanation:

A company hopes to improve customer satisfaction, setting a goal of less than 5% negative comments.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion of negative comments is of at least 5%, that is:

[tex]H_0: p \geq 0.05[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if this proportion is less than 0.05, that is:

[tex]H_1: p < 0.05[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.05 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 0.05, \sigma = \sqrt{0.05*0.95}[/tex]

A random survey of 850 customers found only 34 with complaints.

This means that [tex]n = 850, X = \frac{34}{850} = 0.04[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{0.04 - 0.05}{\frac{\sqrt{0.05*0.95}}{\sqrt{850}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -1.34[/tex]

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample proportion below 0.04, which is the p-value of z = -1.34.

Looking at the z-table, z = -1.34 has a p-value of 0.0901.

The p-value of the test is 0.0901 < 0.1, which means that this provides evidence at the 10% significance level that the company has reached its goal of decreasing the percentage of complaints.

C. A horizontal stretch by a factor of 5/4
D. A vertical stretch by a factor of 5/4

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  C. A horizontal stretch by a factor of 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Replacing x in f(x) by kx introduces a horizontal compression by a factor of k, or a stretch by a factor of 1/k. Here, we have k=4/5, so the curve is stretched horizontally by a factor of 5/4.

In circle S, angle QTR is an inscribed angle.


What is the measure of angle QRS?

Answers

Answer:

angle QRS = 51°

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram for the question has been attached to this response.

From the diagram, some circle theorems can be applied.

Circle theorem:

The angle subtended by an arc of a circle at the centre is twice the angle subtended by it at any other point on the remaining part of the circle.

From the diagram, QR is the arc and therefore:

∠QSR = 2 x ∠ QTR

Since ∠QTR = 39°

=> ∠QSR = 2 x 39°

=> ∠QSR = 78°

Other theorem:

(i)The base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal.

Triangle QSR is an isosceles triangle, therefore, angles SQR and QRS are equal. i.e

∠SQR = ∠QRS

(ii) The sum of angles of a triangle is 180°. i.e

∠SQR + ∠QRS + ∠QSR = 180°

Since ∠SQR = ∠QRS and ∠QSR = 78°

=> ∠QRS + ∠QRS + 78° = 180°

=> 2(∠QRS) = 180° - 78°

=> 2(∠QRS) = 102°

Divide both sides by 2

=> ∠QRS = 51°

Therefore, angle QRS = 51°

Find the volume of the prism.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  420 mm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume is given by the formula ...

  V = Bh

where B is the area of the triangular base, and h is the height.

The triangular base area is given by the formula ...

  A = 1/2bh

  A = 1/2(10.5 mm)(10 mm) = 52.5 mm²

Then the volume of the prism is ...

  V = (52.5 mm²)(8 mm) = 420 mm³

A local dealership provides you with statistics that show the number of each color car they sold last year along with the percentages that those sales represented relative to their inventory for that color car.

For each color, how many cars did the dealership have in its inventory before they started selling them?

Answers

Answer:

red: 20

white: 30

black: 25

silver: 40

other: 12

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the original number of cars per color in the inventory, divide the sold number of cars by the percent of the inventory.

red: 20 = 10/0.5

white: 30 = 21/0.7

black: 25 = 19/0.76

silver: 40 = 10/0.25

other: 12 = 4/0.33
