72 students choose to attend one of three after school activities: football, tennis or running. There are 25 boys. 27 students choose football, of which 17 are girls. 18 students choose tennis. 24 girls choose running. A student is selected at random. What is the probability this student chose running? Give your answer in its simplest form.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 72 students.  27 students choose football, and 18 choose tennis, which means 27 choose running.

So the probability that a student chooses running is 27/72, which reduces to 3/8.

11. A certain brand of margarine was analyzed to determine the level of polyunsaturated fatty acid (in percent). A sample of 6 packages had an average of 16.98 and sample standard deviation of 0.31. Assuming normality, a 99% confidence interval for the true mean of fatty acid level is:

Answers

Answer: (16.47, 17.49)

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for confidence interval for the true mean if population stanmdard deviation is unknown:

[tex]\overline{x}\pm t_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

, where [tex]\overline{x}[/tex] = sample mean

n= sample size

s= sample standard deviation

[tex]t_{\alpha/2}[/tex] = Two tailed critical value.

We assume that the level of polyunsaturated fatty acid is normally distributed.

Given,

n= 6

degree of freedom = n-1 =5

[tex]\overline{x}[/tex] = 16.98

s= 0.31

significance level[tex](\alpha)[/tex] =1-0.99=0.01

Two tailed t- value for degree of freedom of 5 and significance level of 0.01 = [tex]t_{\alpha/2}=4.0317[/tex]    [by student's t-table]

Now , the 99% confidence interval for the true mean of fatty acid level is:

[tex]16.98\pm 4.0317(\dfrac{0.31}{\sqrt{6}})\\\\=16.98\pm 4.0317(0.126557)\\\\=16.98\pm 0.51024\\\\=(16.98-0.51023,\ 16.98+0.51023)\\\\=(16.46977,\ 17.49023)\approx (16.47,\ 17.49)[/tex]

Hence, a 99% confidence interval for the true mean of fatty acid level is: (16.47, 17.49)

When a person throws a ball into the​ air, it follows a parabolic path that opens downward as shown in the figure to the right. Suppose that the​ ball's height in feet after t seconds is given by ​h(t)=-16t^2+32t+2. If​ possible, determine the​ time(s) when the ball was at a height of 14 feet.

Answers

Answer:

0.5 seconds and 1.5 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

h(t) = -16t^2 + 32t + 2

14 = -16t^2 + 32t + 2

16t^2 - 32t - 2 + 14 = 0

16t^2 - 32t + 12 = 0

8t^2 - 16t + 6 = 0

4t^2 - 8t + 3 = 0

(2x - 3)(2x - 1) = 0

2x - 3 = 0

2x = 3

x = 3/2

x = 1.5

2x - 1 = 0

2x = 1

x = 1/2

x = 0.5

So, the ball was at 14 feet at 0.5 seconds and 1.5 seconds.

Answers

Answer:

Age and pressure are related

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is rejected or accepted on the basis of level of significance. When the p-value is greater than level of significance we fail to reject the null hypothesis and null hypothesis is then accepted. It is not necessary that all null hypothesis will be rejected at 10% level of significance. To determine the criteria for accepting or rejecting a null hypothesis we should also consider p-value. In the given scenario we reject the null hypothesis because job pressure and age are related to each other.

Each of the following linear equations defines y as a function of x for all integers x from 1 to 100. For which of the following equations is the standard deviation of the y-values corresponding to all the x-values the greatest?
a) y = x/3
b) y = x/2+40
c) y = x
d) y = 2x + 50
e) y = 3x − 20

Answers

Answer:

Option E

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x /3

let x = 1, 2, 3

y = 0.333, 0.667, 1

y = x/2 + 40

let x = 1, 2, 3

y = 40.5, 41, 41.5

y = x

let x = 1, 2, 3

y = 1, 2, 3

y = 2x + 50

let x = 1, 2, 3

y = 52, 54, 56

y = 3x - 20

let x = 1, 2, 3

y = -17, -14, -11

The standard deviation is the spread of data, the data that is most spread is option E.

Carbon–14 is a radioactive isotope that decays exponentially at a rate of 0.0124 percent a year. How many years will it take for carbon–14 to decay to 10 percent of its original amount? The equation for exponential decay is At = A0e–rt.


Answers

Answer:

It will take 18,569.2 years for carbon–14 to decay to 10 percent of its original amount

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of Carbon-14 after t years is given by the following equation:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-rt}[/tex]

In which A(0) is the initial amount and r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

Carbon–14 is a radioactive isotope that decays exponentially at a rate of 0.0124 percent a year.

This means that [tex]r = \frac{0.0124}{100} = 0.000124[/tex]

How many years will it take for carbon–14 to decay to 10 percent of its original amount?

This is t for which:

[tex]A(t) = 0.1A(0)[/tex]

So

[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-rt}[/tex]

[tex]0.1A(0) = A(0)e^{-0.000124t}[/tex]

[tex]e^{-0.000124t} = 0.1[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{-0.000124t}} = \ln{0.1}[/tex]

[tex]-0.000124t = \ln{0.1}[/tex]

[tex]t = -\frac{\ln{0.1}}{0.000124}[/tex]

[tex]t = 18569.2[/tex]

It will take 18,569.2 years for carbon–14 to decay to 10 percent of its original amount

-2x + 3y = -16
-4.

оооо

Answers

Answer:

y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 5y = -12 ....eq1

-2x + 3y = -16 ...eq2

From eq1, solve for x:

4x + 5y = -12

4x = -12 - 5y

x = -12 - 5y/4

From eq2, substitute value of x:

-2(-12-5y/4) + 3y = -16

3y - 2 (-5y-12/4) = -16

3y - 2(-5y-12)/4 = -16

12y - 2(-5y - 12) = -16

4*3y - 4*2(-5y-12)/4 = 4*(-16)

12y - 2(-5y-12) = -64

12y + 10y + 24 = -64 (divide both sides by common factor 2)

6y + 5y + 12 = -32

11y = -32 - 12

11y = -44

Divide both sides by 11

11y/11 = -44/11

y = -4

HELP PLEASE! A Blue Jay wanted to store some acorns for the winter. If she hides 18 acorns per tree, she will be left with four acorns; if she hides 20 acorns per tree, there will be extra space for an additional four acorns (the number of trees is always the same). How many acorns is the Blue Jay going to store for the winter, and in how many trees?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

T = number of trees

A = number of acorns

Given:

A =  18T + 4 ...........................(1)

A = 20T -4 .........................(2)

Equate A from (1) and (2)

20T-4 = 18T+4

simplify and solve for T

20T - 18T = 4+4

2T = 8

T = 4 trees

A = 18T + 4 = 72+4 = 76 acorns, or

A = 20T - 4 = 80 - 4 = 76 acorns.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-1, 12

-2, 6

-3, 4

1, -12

2, -6

3, -4

We would like to find a pair whose sum is -4. Inspecting each pair, we realise that only the pair 2, -6 works because 2 + (-6) = -4.

Thus, our factors are:

A cosine function is graphed below. Use the drop-down menus to describe the graph. The amplitude of the graph is __ . The equation of the midline is __ . The period of the function is __ . The function is shifted __ left. The function is shifted __ units up.

Answers

Amplitude:4

Equation of Midline: 2

Period of function:3

Function shifted left:0.5

Function shifted up: 2

From the graphed cosine function we are given, we have;

1) Amplitude = 4

2) Equation of midline; m = 2

3) Period of the function = 3π

4) The function shifted 0.5 units left.

5) The function shifted 2 units up.

1) The amplitude is the distance between the center line and the positive or negative peak of the graph. Now, the positive peak is 6 and the negative one is 2. Thus, Amplitude = 6 - 2 = 4

2) Equation of the midline is the line that divides the entire sinusoidal curve into 2 equal parts along the x-axis. Since amplitude is 4, then the equation of midline is; m = 4/2 ; m = 2.

3) The period is the time it takes for the graph to repeat or complete one cycle and in this graph, it is 3π.

4) Looking at the graph, ideally the coordinate (-0.5π, 6) should have been on the y-axis which is at (0π, 6). This means it was shifted by 0.5 units to the left side.

5) The positive peak should be equal to the negative peak but in this case, positive is 6 and negative is 2. This means, for them to be equal, they have to each be 4. Thus, the graph was shifted by 2 units upwards .
