Step-by-step explanation:

The television show September Road has been successful for many years. That show recently had a share of 20, meaning that among the TV sets in use, 20% were tuned to September Road. Assume that an advertiser wants to verify that 20% share value by conducting its own survey, and a pilot survey begins with 11 households have TV sets in use at the time of a September Road broadcast. Find the probability that none of the households are tuned to September Road. P(none)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(none) = 0.0859[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]p =20\%[/tex] --- proportion of household that tuned to September

[tex]n =11[/tex] --- selected households

Required

[tex]P(none)[/tex]

Using the complement rule, the proportion that did not tune (q) is:

[tex]q= 1 - p[/tex]

[tex]q= 1 - 20\%[/tex]

[tex]q= 1 - 0.20[/tex]

[tex]q= 0.80[/tex]

So, the probability that none of the 11 tuned in is:

[tex]P(none) = q^{11}[/tex]

[tex]P(none) = 0.80^{11}[/tex]

[tex]P(none) = 0.0859[/tex]

Which value of “x” would satisfy the following equation 24x - 18 - 8x - 30 = 96?

Answers

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

24x - 18 - 8x - 30 = 96

add or subtract like terms

16x - 48 = 96

shift - 48 to right hand side . when it goes to other side minus changes to plus

16x = 96 + 48

16x = 144

x = 144/16

x = 9

to prove that the value of x satisfy the given equation or not.

to prove that the value of x is 9 substitute 9 inplace of x and if it gives 96 then it satisfy

24x - 18 - 8x - 30 = 96

24*9 - 18 - 8*9 - 30 = 96

216 - 18 - 72 - 30 = 96

216 - 120 = 96

96 = 96

since both sides is equal to 96 it can be concluded that the value of x is 9.

Problem

Which value of “x” would satisfy the following equation 24x - 18 - 8x - 30 = 96?

AnswerX = 9

Step by Step Explanation

24x - 18 - 8x - 30 = 96

First let's just add/subract the following terms.

16x - 48 = 96

Second.. shift the 48 to the right side. after that change the minus sign into plus sign.

16x = 48 + 96

16x = 44

x = 144/16

x = 9

Explanation:

So we just prove that the value of x satisfy the equation true or not.

To prove that the value of x is 9.. we just substitute the 9 in place of x and if it was 96 the result of the equation the problem must be true.

So we begin to solve it!

24x - 18 - 8x - 30 = 96

24*9 - 18 - 8*9 - 30 = 96

216 - 18 - 72 - 30 = 96

216 - 120 = 96

Since that all both sides are equal to 96 it can be concluded that the value of x is 9.

A steamer travels 36 km upstream and 32 km downstream in 6.5 hours. The same steamer travels 4 km upstream and 40 km downstream in 180 minutes. Determine the steamer's speed in still water and the stream's speed.

Answers

Answer:

The streamer's speed in still water is 90.23 km/h while the stream's speed is 33.33 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Let v = streamer's speed in still water and v' = stream's speed. His speed upstream is V = v + v' and his speed downstream is V' = v - v'.

Since he travels 36 km upstream, the time taken is t = 36/V = 36/(v + v').

he travels 32 km downstream, the time taken is t' = 32/V' = 32/(v - v')

The total time is thus t + t' = 36/(v + v') + 32/(v - v')

Since the whole trip takes 6,5 hours,

36/(v + v') + 32/(v - v') = 6.5  (1)

Multiplying each term by (v + v')(v - v'), we have

(v + v')(v - v')36/(v + v') + (v + v')(v - v')32/(v - v') = 6.5(v + v')(v - v')  (1)

(v - v')36 + (v + v')32 = 6.5(v + v')(v - v')  (1)

36v - 36v' + 32v + 32v' = 6.5(v² + v'²)

68v - 4v' = 6.5(v² + v'²)        (2)

Also he travels 4 km upstream, the time taken is t" = 4/V = 4/(v + v').

he travels 40 km downstream, the time taken is t'" = 40/V' = 40/(v - v')

The total time is thus t" + t'" = 4/(v + v') + 40/(v - v')

Since the whole trip takes 180 minutes = 3 hours,

4/(v + v') + 40/(v - v') = 3  (3)

Multiplying each term by (v + v')(v - v'), we have

(v + v')(v - v')4/(v + v') + (v + v')(v - v')40/(v - v') = 3(v + v')(v - v')  (1)

(v - v')4 + (v + v')40 = 3(v + v')(v - v')  (1)

4v - 4v' + 40v + 40v' = 3(v² + v'²)

44v - 36v' = 3(v² + v'²)      (4)

Dividing (2) by (4), we have

(68v - 4v')/(44v - 36v') = 6.5(v² + v'²)/3(v² + v'²)      

(68v - 4v')/(44v - 36v') = 6.5/3

3(68v - 4v') = 6.5(44v - 36v')

204v - 12v' = 286v - 234v'

204v - 286v = 12v' - 234v'

-82v = -222v'

v = -222v'/82

v = 111v'/41

Substituting v into (2), we have

68v - 4v' = 6.5(v² + v'²)      

68(111v'/41) - 4v' = 6.5[(111v'/41)² + v'²]        

[68(111/41) - 4]v' = 6.5[(111/41)² + 1]v'²    

[68(111/41) - 4]v' = 6.5[(111/41)² + 1]v'²

[7548/41 - 4]v' = 6.5[12321/1681 + 1]v'²

[(7548 - 164)/41]v' = 6.5[(12321 + 1681)/1681]v'²

[7384/41]v' = 6.5[14002/1681]v'²

[7384/41]v' = [91013/1681]v'²

[91013/1681]v'² - [7384/41]v' = 0

([91013/1681]v' - [7384/41])v' = 0

⇒ v' = 0 or ([91013/1681]v' - 7384/41) = 0

⇒ v' = 0 or [91013/1681]v' - 7384/41) = 0

⇒ v' = 0 or v' =  7384/41 × 16841/91013

⇒ v' = 0 or v' =  180.097 × 0.185

⇒ v' = 0 or v' =  33.33 km/h

Since v' ≠ 0, v' = 33.33 km/h

Substituting v' into v = 111v'/41 = 111(33.33 km/h)/41 = 3699.63 km/h ÷ 41 = 90.23 km/h

So, the streamer's speed in still water is 90.23 km/h while the stream's speed is 33.33 km/h

1. Brad spent $1,200 on a credit card this
month. The credit card charges 24.77%
interest compounded continuously. If
Brad does not have to pay any monthly
minimums and makes no payments, how
long will it take until Brad owes the
credit card company $2,400?

Answers

Answer:

about 3 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the compound interest formula;

A = P(1+r)^t

Given

Amount A == $2400

Principal P = $1200

rate = 24.77% = 0.2477

Substitute the given values

2400 = 1200(1+0.2477)^t

2400/1200 = (1+0.2477)^t

2 = (1+0.2477)^t

ln 2 = tln1.2477

t = ln2/ln1.2477

t = 3.13

Hence it will take about 3 years  until Brad owes the  credit card company $2,400

52 %of U.S. Adults have very little confidence in newspapers. You randomly select 10 U.S. Adults. Find the probability that the number of U.S. Adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is ​ (a) exactly​ five, (b) at least​ six, and​ (c) less than four.

Answers

Answer:

a. P(x = 5) = 0.24

b. P(x ≥ 6) = 0.43

c. P(x < 4)= 0.14

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question,

Given, 52 %of U.S. Adults have very little confidence in newspapers & We have to randomly select 10 U.S. Adults.

⇒We use Binomial Probability Formula

[tex]P(X = x ) = \frac{n!}{x!((n-x)! } * p^{x} * (1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

Where, p=0.52 & n=10

a. The probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is ​exactly​ five . So, (x=5)

Thus, [tex]P(X = 5 ) = \frac{10!}{5!((10-5)! } * 0.52^{5} * (1-0.52)^{10-5}[/tex]

On Solving Above Equation we get,

P(5)=0.2441 ≈ 0.24

b. The probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is at least 6 . So, (x≥6)

Then,

P(x≥6) = P(6)+P(7)+P(8)+P(9)+P(10)

P(x≥6) = [tex]\frac{10!}{6!((10-6)! } * 0.52^{6} * (1-0.52)^{10-6}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{10!}{7!((10-7)! } * 0.52^{7} * (1-0.52)^{10-7}[/tex] +[tex]\frac{10!}{8!((10-8)! } * 0.52^{8} * (1-0.52)^{10-8}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{10!}{9!((10-9)! } * 0.52^{9} * (1-0.52)^{10-9}[/tex]+[tex]\frac{10!}{10!((10-10)! } * 0.52^{10} * (1-0.52)^{10-10}[/tex]

On solving above equation we get,

P(x≥6) =  0.4270 ≈ 0.43

c. The probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is less than 4 . So, (x<4)

Then,

P(x < 4)=P(3) + P(2)+P(1)+P(0)

P(x<4) = [tex]\frac{10!}{3!((10-3)! } * 0.52^{3} * (1-0.52)^{10-3}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{10!}{2!((10-2)! } * 0.52^{2} * (1-0.52)^{10-2}[/tex]+ [tex]\frac{10!}{1!((10-1)! } * 0.52^{1} * (1-0.52)^{10-1}[/tex] + [tex]\frac{10!}{0!((10-0)! } * 0.52^{0} * (1-0.52)^{10-0}[/tex]

On solving we get,

P(x < 4)= 0.1410 ≈ 0.14

In fact, there are examples of the use of acronyms that date back to antiquity. Ancient scribes had a daunting enough task without having to write out every word. The Christian Church has inscribed the acronym INRI, which stands for the Latin Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum ("Jesus the Nazarene, King of the Jews") over the crucifix for centuries. American and European corporations discovered long ago that it is easier to remember three letters than it is to remember three names. During the twentieth century, there was an upsurge in the use of acronyms that corresponded with the introduction of highly technical vocabulary. The tendency to shorten has an established history and many of these abbreviations have even found their way into the dictionary. Today, the use of time-saving abbreviations provides the language of internet and other wireless communication. But should it? Unlike in the past, this shortening does not represent a natural and necessary progression of language change.

Select the correct text in the passage.The excerpt is taken from Patrick Henry's famous "Give me liberty or give me death" speech to the Second Virginia Convention in 1775. Which sentence suggests that Patrick Henry believed British rule in the American colonies was tyrannical?No man thinks more highly than I do of the patriotism, as well as abilities, of the very worthy gentlemen who have just addressed the House. But different men often see the same subject in different lights; and, therefore, I hope it will not be thought disrespectful to those gentlemen if, entertaining as I do, opinions of a character very opposite to theirs, I shall speak forth my sentiments freely, and without reserve. This is no time for ceremony. {The question before the House is one of awful moment to this country.} {For my own part, I consider it as nothing less than a question of freedom or slavery;} and in proportion to the magnitude of the subject ought to be the freedom of the debate. It is only in this way that we can hope to arrive at truth, and fulfil the great responsibility which we hold to God and our country. {Should I keep back my opinions at such a time, through fear of giving offence, I should consider myself as guilty of treason towards my country}, and of an act of disloyalty toward the majesty of heaven, which I revere above all earthly kings.Mr. President, it is natural to man to indulge in the illusions of hope. {We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth, and listen to the song of that siren till she transforms us into beasts.} Is this the part of wise men, engaged in a great and arduous struggle for liberty? Are we disposed to be of the number of those who, having eyes, see not, and, having ears, hear not, the things which so nearly concern their temporal salvation? {For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it may cost, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst, and to provide for it.} find the area of the following figures:
