Full question:
Every 5 years the Conference Board of the Mathematical Sciences surveys college math departments. In 2000 the board reported that 51% of all undergraduates taking Calculus I were in classes that used graphing calculators and 31% were in classes that used computer assignments. Suppose that 16% used both calculators and computers. a) What percent used neither kind of technology? b) What percent used calculators but not computers? c) What percent of the calculator users had computer assignments? d) Based on this survey, do calculator and computer use appear to be independent events? Explain.
Answer:
a. 34%
b. 35%
c. 31.4%
d. Independent events
Explanation:
a. To calculate percentage that used neither kind of technology, we already know those that use the technologies and total taking calculus so:
100%-51%-31%-16%= 34%
b. Percentage that used calculators but not computers.
= 51%-16%=35%
c. Percentage of the calculator users that had computer assignments?
= 16/51×100=31.4% (there are 16 people using both so that as a percentage of 51 people using calculators)
d. Independent events are events that do not affect the other, such that occurrence of one does not define occurrence of the other. Since percentage of calculator and computer assignment users is close to those who are not using any, we can say they are independent events.
The amount of tax on a chair was $3.60. The tax rate was 5%. Find the original price of the chair.
Bianca solved the problem below. Find Bianca’s error.
0.05(3.60) = Original price
The original price is $0.18.
9514 1404 393
Answer:
$72.00
Step-by-step explanation:
The relationship between price and tax is ...
tax amount = (tax rate) × (price)
Then the price can be found by dividing by the tax rate:
price = (tax amount)/(tax rate)
price = $3.60 / 0.05 = $72.00
The original price of the chair was $72.00.
__
Bianca apparently did not pay any attention to the way tax is computed. Nor did she check her work. The original price is not a small fraction of the tax. It is the other way around. Bianca used a wrong relationship between tax and price.

Suppose that the IQ of a randomly selected student from a university is normal with mean 115 and standard deviation 25. Determine the interval of values that is centered at the mean and for which 50% of the students have IQ's in that interval.
Answer:
The interval is [98,132]
Step-by-step explanation:
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.
Normal with mean 115 and standard deviation 25.
This means that [tex]\mu = 115, \sigma = 25[/tex]
Determine the interval of values that is centered at the mean and for which 50% of the students have IQ's in that interval.
Between the 50 - (50/2) = 25th percentile and the 50 + (50/2) = 75th percentile.
25th percentile:
X when Z has a p-value of 0.25, so X when Z = -0.675.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]-0.675 = \frac{X - 115}{25}[/tex]
[tex]X - 115 = -0.675*25[/tex]
[tex]X = 98[/tex]
75th percentile:
X when Z has a p-value of 0.75, so X when Z = 0.675.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]0.675 = \frac{X - 115}{25}[/tex]
[tex]X - 115 = 0.675*25[/tex]
[tex]X = 132[/tex]
The interval is [98,132]
Statesville's population in 2010 was about 24,500, and was growing by about 1% each year. continues, what will Statesville's population be in 2019? [Round to the nearest person.]
Answer:
26,795 people
Step-by-step explanation:
P(x) = 24,500 × (1 + 0.01)^(2019-2010)
= 24,500 × (1.01)^9
= 24,500 × 1.0937
= 26,795 people
The required population of Statesville in the year 2019 will be 26,795.
Statesville's population in 2010 was about 24,500, growing by about 1% each year. Statesville's population be in 2019 to be determined.
The function which is in format f(x) = a^x where, a is constant and x is variable, the domain of this exponential function lies ( -∞, ∞ ).
Let Statesville's population in 2019 = x
Statesville's population in 2010 = 24500
Population growing by about 1% = 1/100
= 0.01
Difference in year n = 2019 - 2010
n = 9
Population in 2019,
x = 24500 * ( 1 + 0.01 )^9
x = 24500 * ( 1.01 )^9
x = 26, 795.295
To the nearest people x = 26,759
the population of Statesville in the year 2019 = 26,759
Thus, the required population of Statesville in the year 2019 will be 26,795.

A. True
B. False
SUBMIT
Answer:
A. TRUE
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine if two triangles are congruent, we need to establish the facts that the three angles and three side lengths of one is congruent to corresponding angles and side lengths of the other triangle.
The diagram given only tells us the angle measure of the two triangles which are congruent to each other. The side length wasn't given. Therefore, the triangles may not be congruent.
The last dividend paid by Wilden Corporation was $1.55. The dividend growth rate is expected to be constant at 1.5% for 2 years, after which dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 6.0% forever. The firm's required return (rs) is 12.0%. What is the best estimate of the current stock price?
Answer:
Net present value= $25.17
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that The last dividend paid was $1.55 and that the dividend growth rate is constant at 1.5% for 2 years.
Thus;
1) After 1st year;
1.55 × (1 + 0.015) = 1.57325 Div1
After 2nd year;
1.57325 × (1 + 0.015) = 1.59685 Div2
After that 2 years it grows at 6% Constant rate forever;
1.59685 × (1 + 0.06) = 1.69266 Div3
Let's now use the dividend formula which grows in perpetuity at a rate of "g" since required return is 12%:
Thus;
V = 1.69266/(0.12 - 0.06) = 28.211
Thus; Div2 = 28.211 + 1.59685 ≈ 29.80785
Now, using the financial calculator of the Cash Flow function, we have:
Div0 = 0
Div1 = 1.57325
Div2 = 29.80785
i% = 12
Net present value = (1.57325/(1 + 0.12)) + ((1.59685 + 28.211)/(1 + 0.12)²)
Net present value= $25.17
What is y=-2(x+3)^2+2
Answer:
y = -2(x + 3)² + 2
y = 2{ -(x + 3)²+ 1}
y = 2{ -(x² + 6x + 9) + 1}
y = 2{ -x² - 6x - 9 + 1}
y = 2{ -x² - 6x - 8 }
y = -2 { x² + 6x + 8}
OR
y = -2{(x + 4)(x + 2)}

1 red marble 4 blue marbles 3 green marbles probability of drawing 2 blue marbles
Answer:
3/14
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming you draw one after the other without replacement, you have a 1/2 chance of drawing blue the first time, and after one is taken out, you have 7 left. In order to draw 2 blues you would have to have a blue the first time, so there would be 3 blue left. Multiplying the 2 probabilities gets 1/2*3/7= 3/14. Double check that though.

An office manager buys 2 office chairs and 4 file cabinets for $380. Next year she buys 4 office chairs and 6 file cabinets for $660. What is the cost of each office chair, c? What is the cost of each file cabinet, f? Explain how you fond the cost of each chair and file cabinet.
Answer:
16.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
file cabinet = 50
chair = 90
Step-by-step explanation:
x = chair
y = file cabinet
1st year, solve for x
2x+4y = 380
2x = 380 - 4y
x = 190 - 2y
2nd year
Now substitute x = 190 - 2y in your 2nd year formula
4x+6y = 660
4(190-2y)+6y = 660
760 - 8y + 6y = 660
-2y = -100
y = 50
The cost of the filling cabinet is 50 each
Now use the value for y (50) in your first formula to get x
2x+4y=380
2x+4*50=380
2x=380-200
2x=180
x=90

The first quartile of these data is . The third quartile of these data is
Answer:
[tex]Q_1 = 19[/tex] --- first quartile
[tex]Q_3 = 41.5[/tex] --- third quartile
Step-by-step explanation:
Required:
The first and the third quartile
First, we order the dataset in ascending order[tex]Sorted: 6, 10, 11, 12, 15, 18, 20, 21, 24, 25, 26, 29, 30, 34, 35, 38, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 46, 55, 61[/tex]
The count of the dataset is:
[tex]n = 24[/tex]
Calculate the median position
[tex]Median=\frac{n+1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Median=\frac{24+1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Median=\frac{25}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Median=12.5th[/tex]
This means that the median is between the 12th and the 13th item
Next;
Split the dataset to two parts: 1 to 12 and 13 to 24
[tex]First: 6, 10, 11, 12, 15, 18, 20, 21, 24, 25, 26, 29[/tex]
[tex]Second: 30, 34, 35, 38, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 46, 55, 61[/tex]
The median position is:
[tex]Median = \frac{n + 1}{2}[/tex]
In this case; n = 12
So:
[tex]Median = \frac{12 + 1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Median = \frac{13}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Median = 6.5th[/tex]
This means that the median is the average of the 6th and 7th item of the sorted dataset
So, we have:
[tex]Q_1 = \frac{18 + 20}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = \frac{38}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Q_1 = 19[/tex] --- first quartile
[tex]Q_3 = \frac{41+42}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = \frac{83}{2}[/tex]
[tex]Q_3 = 41.5[/tex] --- third quartile

g A two-factor study with 3 levels of factor A and 3 levels of factor B uses a separate sample of 10 participants in each treatment condition. How many participants are needed for the entire study
Answer:
the total number of participants required is 90
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data in the question;
Factor A has three levels
Factor B has three levels
sample size n; ten participants
we have two Way ANOVA involving Factor A and Factor B.
Now,
{ Total # Participants Required } = { #Levels factor A } × { #Levels factor B } × { Sample size of each level }
we substitute
{ Total # Participants Required } = 3 × 3 × 10
{ Total # Participants Required } = 9 × 10
{ Total # Participants Required } = 90
Therefore, the total number of participants required is 90

Additional comment
The vertical angles in the center of the figure are v = 62°, the measure required to bring the total to 180° in each triangle. We have shortcut the equation(s) ...
? + 74 + v = 180 = 92 + 26 + v
by subtracting v from both sides, giving ...
? +74 = 92 +26

The x intercepts of the function f(x) = 2x(x-5)^2(x+4)^3
are…
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{\sf x- intercepts = 0 , 5 \ and \ -4}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
A function is given to us and we need to find the x Intercepts of the graph of the given function . The function is ,
[tex]\sf \implies f(x) = 2x( x - 5 ) ^2(x+4)^3 [/tex]
For finding the x intercept , equate the given function with 0, we have ;
[tex]\sf \implies 2x ( x - 5 )^2(x+4)^3= 0 [/tex]
Equate each factor with 0 ,
[tex]\sf \implies 2x = 0[/tex]
Divide both sides by 2 ,
[tex]\sf \implies\bf x = 0[/tex]
Again ,
[tex]\sf \implies ( x - 5)^2=0 [/tex]
Taking squareroot on both sides,
[tex]\sf \implies x - 5 = 0 [/tex]
Add 5 to both sides,
[tex]\sf \implies \bf x = 5[/tex]
Similarly ,
[tex]\sf \implies \bf x = -4 [/tex]
Hence the x Intercepts are -4 , 0 and 5 .

an oil tank, which is a shape of a cylinder, is 3m high and has a diameter of 6m. the oil tank is two-thirds full. find the number of cubic meters of oil in the tank. use 3.14 for pi
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The key is to find out the entire volume the tank can hold when it is full, then take 2/3 of that amount. The volume of a cylinder is
[tex]V=\pi r^2h[/tex] and filling in:
[tex]V=3.14(3)^2(3)[/tex] (if the diameter is 6 m, the radius is 3) so
V = 84.78 m³ when it is full all the way. If we need the amount that makes up 2/3 of that:
[tex]\frac{2}{3}(84.78)=56.52m^3[/tex]
