Answer:
assumed accuracy from overly precise numbers
Step-by-step explanation:
Except when counting large sums of money or considering definitions, most real-world numbers are not accurate beyond about 6 significant figures. When considering survey or sample results, the accuracy can be considerably less than that, often not even good to 3 significant figures. (Margin of error is usually some number of percentage points greater than 1.)
Expressing the given ratios to 10 significant figures substantially misstates their accuracy. (10^-9 television is less than 1 day's accumulated dust).
Prove that the square of an odd number is always 1 more than a multiple of 4
Answer:
By these examples you are able to see that the square of an odd number is always 1 more than a multiple of 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
For examples,
Let's consider squares of 3, 11, 25, 37 and 131.
[tex] {3}^{2} = 9[/tex]
8 is a multiple of 4, and 9 is more than 8.
[tex] {11}^{2} = 121[/tex]
120 is a multiple of 4 and 121 is one more than it.
[tex] {25}^{2} = 625[/tex]
624 is a multiple of 4 and 625 is one more than it.
[tex] {37}^{2} = 1369[/tex]
1368 is a multiple of 4 and 1369 is one more than 1368.
[tex] {131}^{2} = 17161[/tex]
17160 is a multiple of 4.

Find the probability that when a couple has children, at least one of them is a . (Assume that boys and girls are equally likely.)
Answer:
[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl) = 0.875[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]n = 3[/tex]
[tex]B \to boys[/tex]
[tex]G \to girls[/tex]
[tex]P(G) = P(B) = 0.5[/tex] --- equal probability
See comment for complete question
Required:
[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl)[/tex]
To do this, we make use of complement rule:
[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl) = 1 - P(No\ girl)[/tex]
The event that there is no girl out of the 3 children is: B B B
And the probability is:
[tex]P(No\ Girl) = P(B) * P(B) * P(B)[/tex]
[tex]P(No\ Girl) = 0.5*0.5*0.5[/tex]
[tex]P(No\ Girl) = 0.125[/tex]
So:
[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl) = 1 - P(No\ girl)[/tex]
[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl) = 1 - 0.125[/tex]
[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl) = 0.875[/tex]

Lena and Ras drive to work. Lena drives 24 miles in 1.5 hours. Ras drives 36 km in 1 hour 15 min. Work out the difference between their average speeds in km/h. 1 mile = 1.6 km
Answer:
Difference = 3.2 km/h
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Lena drives 24 miles in 1.5 hours. Ras drives 36 km in 1 hour 15 min.
For average speed of Lena,
d = 24 miles = 38.4 km
t = 1.5 h
[tex]v=\dfrac{38.4}{1.5}= 25.6\ km/h[/tex]
For average speed of Ras,
d = 36 km
t = 1h 15 min = 1.25 h
[tex]v=\dfrac{36}{1.25}=28.8\ km/h[/tex]
Difference = 28.8-25.6
= 3.2 km/h
So, the difference between their average speed is 3.2 km/hr.
Answer:
3.2 km/h

Answer:
Add equations A and C to eliminate y and add B and C to eliminate y
Step-by-step explanation:
From the equation given, we can see that the coefficient of y in A and C are alternating values 5 and -5 which cancels out on adding same for B and C. Hence t eliminate y, we will add B and C and A and C
Therefore the correct answer will be to eliminate add equations A and C to eliminate y and add B and C to eliminate y

4(n + 5) – 2(5 + 7n) = -70
n =
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4*(n +5) - 2*(5 + 7n) = -70
4*n + 4*5 + 5*(-2) + 7n*(-2) = -70
4n + 20 - 10 - 14n = -70
4n - 14n + 20 - 10 = -70
- 10n + 10 = -70
Subtract 10 from both sides
-10n = -70 - 10
-10n = -80
Divide both sides by (-10)
n = -80/-10
n = 8

the mean of 5 numbers is 198. the numbers are in ratio 1:2:3:4:5 find the smallest number
Answer: 13.2
In fraction form, this is 66/5
=============================================================
Explanation:
The five values are in the ratio 1:2:3:4:5 which scales up to 1x:2x:3x:4x:5x for some positive number x.
Add up the pieces of the second ratio and set that sum equal to 198. Then solve for x.
1x+2x+3x+4x+5x = 198
15x = 198
x = 198/15
x = 66/5
x = 13.2 is the smallest number since 1x = 1*13.2 = 13.2 was the smallest value of the ratio 1x:2x:3x:4x:5x.

[tex]a_1=1+5[/tex]
[tex]a_1=6[/tex]
For n=2,
[tex]a_2=2^2+5[/tex]
[tex]a_2=4+5[/tex]
[tex]a_2=9[/tex]
For n=3,
[tex]a_3=3^2+5[/tex]
[tex]a_3=9+5[/tex]
[tex]a_3=14[/tex]
For n=4,
[tex]a_4=4^2+5[/tex]
[tex]a_4=16+5[/tex]
[tex]a_4=21[/tex]
For n=5,
[tex]a_5=5^2+5[/tex]
[tex]a_5=25+5[/tex]
[tex]a_5=30[/tex]
Therefore, the first five terms of the given sequence are 6, 9, 14, 21, 30.
Agan Interior Design provides home and office decorating assistance to its customers. In normal operation, an average of 2.5 customers arrive each hour. One design consultant is available to answer customer questions and make product recommendations. The consultant averages 10 minutes with each customer. Compute the operating characteristics of the customer waiting line, assuming Poisson arrivals and exponential service times. Round your answers to four decimal places. Do not round intermediate calculations.
Answer:
the operating characteristics have been solved below
Step-by-step explanation:
we have an average of 10 minutes per customers
μ = mean service rate = 60/10 = 6 customers in one hr
the average number of customers that are waiting in line
mean arrival λ = 2.5
μ = 6
[tex]Lq = \frac{2.5^{2} }{6(6-2.5)} \\[/tex]
= 6.25/21
= 0.2976
we calculate the average number of customers that are in the system
[tex]L=Lq+\frac{2.5}{6}[/tex]
= 0.2976+0.4167
= 0.7143
we find the average time that a customer spends in waiting
[tex]Wq=\frac{0.2976}{2.5}[/tex]
= 0.1190 hours
when converted to minutes = 0.1190*60 = 7.1424 minutes
[tex]0.1190+\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
=0.2857
probability that arriving customers would wait for the service
= 2.5÷6 = 0.4167
What is the value of y?
Answer:
y=0
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Make variable y as subject for the first equation, which is y= -2x +10
2. substitute the first eq to the second one
3. x - (-2x+10) -5=0
4. solve x, which x = 5
5. substitute in eq 1 which is y= -2x +10
6. solve the eq, the possible solution is y=0

A display case of toy rings are marked 5 for $1. If Zach wants to buy 50 toy rings, how much will Zach spend (not including tax)
Answer:
$10
Step-by-step explanation:
5 toys = $1
Zach wants 50 of these
50 ÷ 5 = 10
10 x 1 = 10
= $10
Answer:
10 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a ratio to solve
5 rings 50 rings
---------- = --------------
1 dollar x dollars
Using cross products
5*x = 1 * 50
5x = 50
Divide by 5
5x/5 = 50/5
x = 10
number of bald eagles in a country a discrete random variable, a continuous random variable, or not a random variable?
Answer:
Discrete random variable.
Step-by-step explanation:
Discrete variable:
Countable numbers(0,1,2,3,...)
Continuous variable:
Can assume decimal values, such as 0.5, 2.5,...
Number of bald eagles:
Number of bald eagles is a countable value, either there a 0, 100, 1000,... so it is a discrete random variable.
Answer:
Discrete random variable.
Step-by-step explanation:
A town has a current population of 4,000. The population increased 4 percent per year for the past four years, Emergency response professionals
make up 3 percent of the town's population.
Part A
Write a function that represents the population (p) of the town in terms of the number of years (1) for the last four years.
Answer:
p=c(1+r)^t so the population will be 4679.43424 or rounded to 4679
Step-by-step explanation:
p=c(1+r)^t
p=4,000(1+.04)^t
p=4,000(1.04)^t
p=4,000(1.04)^4
p=4679.43424
p= the population you are solving for
c= the initial amount of the population
(1+r)= the rate of change
t= the period of time
The exponential equation that represents the population of the town in terms of the number of years : [tex]p=4000 (1+0.4)^{t}[/tex]
What is an exponential equation?An exponential equation is an equation with exponents where the exponent (or) a part of the exponent is a variable.
It is similar to the amount received after investing a certain amount compounded annually.
Given,
Initial population = 4000
Rate of increase = 4%
Let current population be p.
Let number of years passed be t.
The exponential equation will be: [tex]p=4000 (1+0.4)^{t}[/tex]
(The population of the town has grown exponentially. This means that:
Initial population = 4000
Population in year I = 4000 + 4% of 4000 = 4000(1 + 0.4)
Population in year II = 4000 + 4% of 4000(1 + 0.4) = 4000(1 + 0.4)(1+0.4)
and this goes on.)

what was the original price of the car? MUST SHOW ALL STEPS OF THE PROCESS.
Answer:
19219.48
Step-by-step explanation:
16540x0.162+16540
The original price would be 100%
It was marked down 16.2%
100 % - 16.2% = 83.8%
The price you paid was 83.8% of the original price.
To find the original price divide the amount you paid by the percentage of the original price:
16,540 / 0.838 = 19.737.47
Original price: $19,737.47
