Answer: The ramp must be 32 feet long. In inches, 384.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each 16 inches of run, there is one inch of rise. To get 24 inches of rise, multiply 16 by 24 to get 384 inches. To convert to a more useful measurement, convert to feet. 12 inches per foot. 384/12 = 32
Measurement is the process of assigning numbers to physical quantities and phenomena.
If a 1-inch rise for a 16-inch run makes it easier for the wheelchair rider, this can be expressed as:
1inch rise = 16-inch run
In order to determine how long must a ramp be to easily accommodate a 24-inch rise to the door, we can write:
24in rise = x
Divide both expressions:
[tex]\dfrac{1}{24}=\dfrac{16}{x}\\[/tex]
Cross multiply:
[tex]x=16 \times 24\\x=384inches[/tex]
Hence the ramp must be 384inches long in order to easily accommodate a 24-inch rise to the door.

Last winter Armand had StartFraction 5 Over 6 EndFraction of a row of stacked logs. At the end of the winter he had StartFraction 8 Over 15 EndFraction of the same row left. How much wood did he burn over the winter?
Answer:
3/10
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that the Armans last winter had 5/6 of a row of stacked logs and at the end of the winter he had 8/15 of the same row left, therefore:
Ambitious
First we have to do is that the denominator is the same.
in the case of 5/6 it would be 25/30
and for 8/15 it would be 16/30
Now if we can do the subtraction and it would be:
25/30 - 16/30 = 9/30 or what equals 3/10
3/10 was the amount of wood he burned in the winter

Answer:
x = 15
y = 90
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Find x
We use Definition of Supplementary Angles
9x + 3x = 180
12x = 180
x = 15
Step 2: Find y
All angles in a triangle add up to 180°
3(15) + 3(15) + y = 180
45 + 45 + y = 180
90 + y = 180
y = 90°
When Vlad moved to his new home a few years ago, there was a young oak tree in his backyard. He measured it once a year and found that it grew by 26 centimeters each year. 4.5 years after he moved into the house, the tree was 292 centimeters tall. How tall was the tree when Vlad moved into the house? centimeters How many years passed from the time Vlad moved in until the tree was 357 centimeters tall? years
Answer:
The tree was 175 centimeters tall when Vlad moved into the house.
7 years passed from the time Vlad moved in until the tree was 357 centimeters tall.
Step-by-step explanation:
The height of the tree, in centimeters, in t years after Vlad moved into the house is given by an equation in the following format:
[tex]H(t) = H(0) + at[/tex]
In which H(0) is the height of the tree when Vlad moved into the house and a is the yearly increase.
He measured it once a year and found that it grew by 26 centimeters each year.
This means that [tex]a = 26[/tex]
So
[tex]H(t) = H(0) + 26t[/tex]
4.5 years after he moved into the house, the tree was 292 centimeters tall. How tall was the tree when Vlad moved into the house?
This means that when t = 4.5, H(t) = 292. We use this to find H(0).
[tex]H(t) = H(0) + 26t[/tex]
[tex]292 = H(0) + 26*4.5[/tex]
[tex]H(0) = 292 - 26*4.5[/tex]
[tex]H(0) = 175[/tex]
The tree was 175 centimeters tall when Vlad moved into the house.
How many years passed from the time Vlad moved in until the tree was 357 centimeters tall?
This is t for which H(t) = 357. So
[tex]H(t) = H(0) + 26t[/tex]
[tex]H(t) = 175 + 26t[/tex]
[tex]357 = 175 + 26t[/tex]
[tex]26t = 182[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{182}{26}[/tex]
[tex]t = 7[/tex]
7 years passed from the time Vlad moved in until the tree was 357 centimeters tall.

What’s the probability of getting each card out of a deck?
Determine the probability of drawing the card(s) at random from a well-shuffled regular deck of 52 playing cards.
a. a seven __________
b. a six of clubs. ___________
c. a five or a queen ___________
d. a black card. ___________
e. a red card or a jack. ___________
f. a club or an ace. ___________
g. a diamond or a spade. ___________
Answer:
a. 1/13
b. 1/52
c. 2/13
d. 1/2
e. 15/26
f. 17/52
g. 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
a. In a deck of cards, there are 4 suits and each of them has a 7. Therefore, the probability of drawing a 7 is:
P(7) = 4/52 = 1/13
b. There is only one 6 of clubs, therefore, the probability of drawing a 6 of clubs is:
P(6 of clubs) = 1/52
c. There 4 fives (one for each suit) and 4 queens in a deck of cards. Therefore, the probability of drawing a five or a queen is:
P(5 or Q) = P(5) + P(Q)
= 4/52 + 4/52
= 1/13 + 1/13
P(5 or Q) = 2/13
d. There are 2 suits that are black. Each suit has 13 cards. Therefore, there are 26 black cards. The probability of drawing a black card is:
P(B) = 26/52 = 1/2
e. There are 2 suits that are red. Each suit has 13 cards. Therefore, there are 26 red cards. There are 4 jacks. Therefore:
P(R or J) = P(R) + P(J)
= 26/52 + 4/52
= 30/52
P(R or J) = 15/26
f. There are 13 cards in clubs suit and there are 4 aces, therefore:
P(C or A) = P(C) + P(A)
= 13/52 + 4/52
P(C or A) = 17/52
g. There are 13 cards in the diamonds suit and there are 13 in the spades suit, therefore:
P(D or S) = P(D) + P(S)
= 13/52 + 13/52
= 26/52
P(D or S) = 1/2

An experiment consists of dealing 7 cards from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. What is the probability of being dealt exactly 4 clubs and 3 spades?
Answer: 0.00153
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: An experiment consists of dealing 7 cards from a standard deck of 52 playing cards.
Number of ways of dealing 7 cards from 52 cards = [tex]^{52}C_7[/tex]
Since there are 13 clubs and 13 spades.
Number of ways of getting exactly 4 clubs and 3 spades=[tex]^{13}C_4\times\ ^{13}C_3[/tex]
Now, the probability of being dealt exactly 4 clubs and 3 spades
[tex]=\dfrac{^{13}C_4\times\ ^{13}C_3}{^{52}C_7}\\\\\\=\dfrac{{\dfrac{13!}{4!(9!)}\times\dfrac{13!}{3!10!}}}{\dfrac{52!}{7!45!}}\\\\=\dfrac{715\times286}{133784560}\\\\=0.00152850224271\approx0.00153[/tex]
Hence, the probability of being dealt exactly 4 clubs and 3 spades = 0.00153

Answer:
2/7
Step-by-step explanation:
The numbers greater than 7 or less than 3 are 2 and 8.
2 numbers out of 7.
P(greater than 7 or less than 3) = 2/7
Answer:
2/7
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a total of 7 sample spaces also known as 2,3,4,5,6,7,8. Now we have to find a number greater than 7 and less than 3. 2 is less than 3, and 8 is greater than 7, so two numbers are selected. This would become 2/7 because out of all of the 7 outcomes, only two are selected.
The scientist performs additional analyses and observes that the number of major earthquakes does appear to be decreasing but wonders whether the relationship is statistically significant. Based on the partial regression output below and a 5% significance level, is the year statistically significant in determining the number of earthquakes above magnitude 7.0?Dependent Variable: Earthquakes above Magnitude 7.0 Coefficients Standard t Stat P-value Lower 95% Upper 95% ErrorIntercept 64.67 38.08 4.32 89.22 240.12Year -0.07 0.02 -3.82 -0.11 -0.04
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
A regression model was determined in order to predict the number of earthquakes above magnitude 7.0 regarding the year.
^Y= 164.67 - 0.07Xi
Y: earthquake above magnitude 7.0
X: year
The researcher wants to test the claim that the regression is statistically significant, i.e. if the year is a good predictor of the number of earthquakes with magnitude above 7.0 If he is correct, you'd expect the slope to be different from zero: β ≠ 0, if the claim is not correct, then the slope will be equal to zero: β = 0
The hypotheses are:
H₀: β = 0
H₁: β ≠ 0
α: 0.05
The statistic for this test is a student's t: [tex]t= \frac{b - \beta }{Sb} ~~t_{n-2}[/tex]
The calculated value is in the regression output [tex]t_{H_0}= -3.82[/tex]
This test is two-tailed, meaning that the rejection region is divided in two and you'll reject the null hypothesis to small values of t or to high values of t, the p-value for this test will also be divided in two.
The p-value is the probability of obtaining a value as extreme as the one calculated under the null hypothesis:
p-value: [tex]P(t_{n-2}\leq -3.82) + P(t_{n-2}\geq 3.82)[/tex]
As you can see to calculate it you need the information of the sample size to determine the degrees of freedom of the distribution.
If you want to use the rejection region approach, the sample size is also needed to determine the critical values.
But since this test is two tailed at α: 0.05 and there was a confidence interval with confidence level 0.95 (which is complementary to the level of significance) you can use it to decide whether to reject the null hypothesis.
Using the CI, the decision rule is as follows:
If the CI includes the "zero", do not reject the null hypothesis.
If the CI doesn't include the "zero", reject the null hypothesis.
The calculated interval for the slope is: [-0.11; -0.04]
As you can see, both limits of the interval are negative and do not include the zero, so the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.
At a 5% significance level, you can conclude that the relationship between the year and the number of earthquakes above magnitude 7.0 is statistically significant.
I hope this helps!

Answer:
(f o g) = x, then, g(x) is the inverse of f(x).
Step-by-step explanation:
You have the following functions:
[tex]f(x)=-\frac{2}{x}-1\\\\g(x)=-\frac{2}{x+1}[/tex]
In order to know if f and g are inverse functions you calculate (f o g) and (g o f):
[tex]f\ o\ g=f(g(x))=-\frac{2}{-\frac{2}{x+1}}-1=x+1-1=x[/tex]
[tex]g\ o\ f=g(f(x))=-\frac{2}{-\frac{2}{x}+1}=-\frac{2}{\frac{-2+x}{x}}=\frac{2x}{2-x}[/tex]
(f o g) = x, then, g(x) is the inverse of f(x).
State the coordinates of the vertex for each of the following
Answer:
[a] y=x^2+3, vertex, V(0,3)
[b] y=2x^2, vertex, V(0,0)
[c] y=-x^2 + 4, vertex, V(0,4)
[d] y= (1/2)x^2 - 5, vertex, V(0,-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertex, V, of a quadratic can be found as follows:
1. find the x-coordinate, x0, by completing the square
2. find the y-coordinate, y0, by substituting the x-value of the vertex.
[a] y=x^2+3, vertex, V(0,3)
y=(x-0)^2 + 3
x0=0, y0=0^2+3=3
vertex, V(0,3)
[b] y=2x^2, vertex, V(0,0)
y=2(x-0)^2+0
x0 = 0, y0=0^2 + 0 = 0
vertex, V(0,0)
[c] y=-x^2 + 4, vertex, V(0,4)
y=-(x^2-0)^2 + 4
x0 = 0, y0 = 0^2 + 4 = 4
vertex, V(0,4)
y = (1/2)(x-0)^2 -5
x0 = 0, y0=(1/2)0^2 -5 = -5
vertex, V(0,-5)
Conclusion:
When the linear term (term in x) is absent, the vertex is at (0,k)
where k is the constant term.

Given:
An equilateral triangle JKL inscribed in circle M.
Solution:
To draw an equilateral triangle inscribed in circle follow the steps:
1: Draw a circle with any radius.
2. Take any point A, anywhere on the circumference of the circle.
3. Place the compass on point A, and swing a small arc crossing the circumference of the circle.
Remember the span of the compass should be the same as the radius of the circle.
4. Place the compass at the intersection of the previous arc and the circumference and draw another arc but don't change the span of the compass.
5. Repeat this process until you return to point A.
6. Join the intersecting points on the circle to form the equilateral triangle.
So the correct option is A. The width must be equal to the radius of circle M.

An object is dropped from the top of a tower with a height of 1160 feet. Neglecting air resistance, the height of the object at time t seconds is given by the
polynomial - 16t square + 1160. Find the height of the object at t = 1 second.
The height of the object at 1 second is feet.
Answer:
Height at t = 1 sec is 1144 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Initial height of object = 1160 feet
Height of object after t seconds is given by the polynomial:
[tex]- 16t ^2+ 1160[/tex]
Let [tex]h(t)=- 16t ^2+ 1160[/tex]
Let us analyze the given equation once.
[tex]t^2[/tex] will always be positive.
and coefficient of [tex]t^2[/tex] is [tex]-16[/tex] i.e. negative value.
It means something is subtracted from 1160 ft (i.e. the initial height).
So, height will keep on decreasing with increasing value of t.
Also, given that the object is dropped from the top of a tower.
To find:
Height of object at t = 1 sec.
OR
[tex]h (1)[/tex] = ?
Solution:
Let us put t = 1 in the given equation: [tex]h(t)=- 16t ^2+ 1160[/tex]
[tex]h(1)=- 16\times 1 ^2+ 1160\\\Rightarrow h(1) = -16 + 1160\\\Rightarrow h(1) = 1144\ ft[/tex]
So, height of object at t = 1 sec is 1144 ft.
ga political candidate has asked you to conduct a poll to determine what percentage of people support her. if the candidate only wants a 8% margin of error at a 95% cnofidence level, what size of sample is needed
Answer: 151
Step-by-step explanation:
if prior population proportion is unknown , then the formula is used to find the sample size :
[tex]n=0.25(\frac{z_{\alpha/2}}{E})^2[/tex]
, where [tex]z_{\alpha/2}[/tex] = Two tailed critical value for significance level of [tex]\alpha.[/tex]
E = Margin of error.
Given : margin of error = 8%= .08
For 95% confidence level , two tailed critical value = 1.96
Now, the required sample size :
[tex]n=0.25(\frac{1.96}{0.08})^2\\\\=0.25(24.5)^2\\\\=150.0625\approx151[/tex]
Hence, the size of the sample needed = 151.
You want to be able to withdraw $4000 a month for 30 years how much would you need to have in your account with an APR of 3.4% to accomplish this goal
Answer:
$904,510.28
Step-by-step explanation:
If we assume the withdrawals are at the beginning of the month, we can use the annuity-due formula.
P = A(1 +r/n)(1 -(1 +r/n)^(-nt))/(r/n)
where r is the APR, n is the number of times interest is compounded per year (12), A is the amount withdrawn, and t is the number of years.
Filling in your values, we have ...
P = $4000(1 +.034/12)(1 -(1 +.034/12)^(-12·30))/(.034/12)
P = $904,510.28
You need to have $904,510.28 in your account when you begin withdrawals.
Answer:
You need to have $904,510.28 in your account when you begin

The answer is explained below
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that, the equation H*x = c is inconsistent for some c in R^n, we can say that the equation A*x = b has at least one solution for each b in R^n of IMT (Inverse Matrix Theorem) is not fulfilled.
Thanks to this we can say that by equivalence of theorem statement, the equation H*x = 0 will not have only the trivial solution. It will have non-trivial solutions too.

(c) For the group of 43 pancake eaters, the probability that the average amount of syrup is between 61.4 mL and 62.8 mL is 0.2512.
(d) Yes, for part (d), the assumption that the distribution is normally distributed necessary.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the amount of syrup that people put on their pancakes is normally distributed with mean 63 mL and a standard deviation of 13 mL.
Suppose that 43 randomly selected people are observed pouring syrup on their pancakes.
(a) Let X = amount of syrup that people put on their pancakes
The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;
Z = [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
where, [tex]\mu[/tex] = mean amount of syrup = 63 mL
[tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation = 13 mL
So, the distribution of X ~ N([tex]\mu=63, \sigma^{2} = 13^{2}[/tex]).
Let [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample mean amount of syrup that people put on their pancakes
The z-score probability distribution for the sample mean is given by;
Z = [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
where, [tex]\mu[/tex] = mean amount of syrup = 63 mL
[tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation = 13 mL
n = sample of people = 43
So, the distribution of [tex]\bar X[/tex] ~ N([tex]\mu=63,s^{2} = (\frac{13}{\sqrt{43} } )^{2}[/tex]).
(b) If a single randomly selected individual is observed, the probability that this person consumes is between 61.4 mL and 62.8 mL is given by = P(61.4 mL < X < 62.8 mL)
P(61.4 mL < X < 62.8 mL) = P(X < 62.8 mL) - P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 61.4 mL)
P(X < 62.8 mL) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{62.8-63}{13}[/tex] ) = P(Z < -0.02) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 0.02)
= 1 - 0.50798 = 0.49202
P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 61.4 mL) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] [tex]\frac{61.4-63}{13}[/tex] ) = P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] -0.12) = 1 - P(Z < 0.12)
= 1 - 0.54776 = 0.45224
Therefore, P(61.4 mL < X < 62.8 mL) = 0.49202 - 0.45224 = 0.0398.
(c) For the group of 43 pancake eaters, the probability that the average amount of syrup is between 61.4 mL and 62.8 mL is given by = P(61.4 mL < [tex]\bar X[/tex] < 62.8 mL)
P(61.4 mL < [tex]\bar X[/tex] < 62.8 mL) = P([tex]\bar X[/tex] < 62.8 mL) - P([tex]\bar X[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] 61.4 mL)
P([tex]\bar X[/tex] < 62.8 mL) = P( [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]\frac{62.8-63}{\frac{13}{\sqrt{43} } }[/tex] ) = P(Z < -0.10) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 0.10)
= 1 - 0.53983 = 0.46017
P([tex]\bar X[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] 61.4 mL) = P( [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] [tex]\frac{61.4-63}{\frac{13}{\sqrt{43} } }[/tex] ) = P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] -0.81) = 1 - P(Z < 0.81)
= 1 - 0.79103 = 0.20897
Therefore, P(61.4 mL < X < 62.8 mL) = 0.46017 - 0.20897 = 0.2512.
(d) Yes, for part (d), the assumption that the distribution is normally distributed necessary.
A positive integer is twice another. The sum of the reciprocals of the two positive integers is 3/14. Find the two integers.
Answer:
The integers are 7 and 14.
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 2x
1/y + 1/x = 3/14
1/(2x) + 1/x 3/14
1/(2x) + 2/(2x) = 3/14
3/(2x) = 3/14
1/2x = 1/14
2x = 14
x = 7
y = 2x = 2(7) = 14
Answer: The integers are 7 and 14.
The required two integers are 7 and 14
This is a question on word problems leading to the simultaneous equation:
Let the two unknown integers be x and y. If a positive integer is twice another, then x = 2y .......... 1
Also, if the sum of the reciprocals of the two positive integers is 3/14, then:
[tex]\frac{1}{x}+ \frac{1}{y} =\frac{3}{14}[/tex] ..........2
Substitute equation 1 into 2
[tex]\frac{1}{2y} +\frac{1}{y} =\frac{3}{14} \\[/tex]
Find the LCM of 2y and y
[tex]\frac{1+2}{2y} =\frac{3}{14} \\\frac{3}{2y} =\frac{3}{14} \\\\cross \ multiply\\2y \times 3=3 \times 14\\6y=42\\y=\frac{42}{6}\\y=7[/tex]
Substitute y = 7 into equation 1:
Recall that x = 2y
[tex]x = 2(7)\\x = 14[/tex]
Hence the required two integers are 7 and 14.

Step-by-step explanation:
This problem can be solved using angular bisector theorem.
It states that if any angle of triangle is bisected by a line , then that line
divides the opposite side of that angle in same proportion as that of two other sides which contain the angle.
__________________________________
Here one angle is is divided into parts theta
Thus,
using angular bisector theorem
14/21 = 6/3x-12
=> 14(3x-12) = 21*6
=> 3x-12 = 21*6/14 = 9
=> 3x = 12+9 = 21
=> x = 21/3 = 7
Thus, x = 7
A car travelling from Ibadan to Lagos at 90 km/hr
takes 1 hour 20 min. How fast must one travel to
cover the distance in one hour?
Answer:
A velocity of 120km/h is needed to cover the distance in one hour
Step-by-step explanation:
The velocity formula is:
[tex]v = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]
In which v is the velocity, d is the distance and t is the time.
A car travelling from Ibadan to Lagos at 90 km/hr takes 1 hour 20 min.
This means that [tex]v = 90, t = 1 + \frac{20}{60} = 1.3333[/tex]
We use this to find d.
[tex]v = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]
[tex]90 = \frac{d}{1.3333}[/tex]
[tex]d = 90*1.3333[/tex]
[tex]d = 120[/tex]
The distance is 120 km.
How fast must one travel to cover the distance in one hour?
Velocity for a distance of 120 km(d = 120) in 1 hour(t = 1). So
[tex]v = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]
[tex]v = \frac{120}{1}[/tex]
[tex]v = 120[/tex]
A velocity of 120km/h is needed to cover the distance in one hour
In a random sample of 2,305 college students, 339 reported getting 8 or more hours of sleep per night. Create a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of college students who get 8 or more hours of sleep per night. Use a TI-83, TI-83 plus, or TI-84 calculator, rounding your answers to three decimal places.
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of college students who get 8 or more hours of sleep per night is (0.133, 0.161).
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
In which
z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
For this problem, we have that:
[tex]n = 2305, \pi = \frac{339}{2305} = 0.147[/tex]
95% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].
The lower limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.147 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.147*0.853}{2305}} = 0.133[/tex]
The upper limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.147 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.147*0.853}{2305}} = 0.161[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of college students who get 8 or more hours of sleep per night is (0.133, 0.161).
