A bucket that has a mass of 30 kg when filled with sand needs to be lifted to the top of a 30 meter tall building. You have a rope that has a mass of 0.3 kg/m that must be secured to the bucket. It takes 1 meter of rope to secure the bucket. Once the bucket reaches the top of the building it only has mass 15 kg because there was a hole in the bottom and sand was leaking out at a constant rate while it was being lifted to the top of the building. Find the work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

765 J

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Mass of bucket = 30 kg

Mass of rope = 0.3 kg/m

height of building= 30 meter

Now,

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the building = work done in lifting the rope + work done in lifting the sand

Or W = W1 + W2

Work done in lifting the rope is given as,

W1 = Force x displacement

W1 = (30,0)∫(0.2x .dx)

Integrating, we have;

W1 = [0.2x²/2] at boundary of 30 and 0

W1 = 0.1(30²)

W1 = 90 J

work done in lifting the sand is given as;

W2 = (30,0)∫(F .dx)

F = mx + c

Where, c = 30 - 15 = 15

m = (30 - 15)/(30 - 0)

m = 15/30 = 0.5

So,

F = 0.5x + 15

Thus,

W2 = (30,0)∫(0.5x + 15 .dx)

Integrating, we have;

W2 = (0.5x²/2) + 15x at boundary of 30 and 0

So,

W2 = (0.5 × 30²)/2) + 15(30)

W2 = 225 + 450

W2 = 675 J

Therefore,

work done lifting the bucket (sand and rope) to the top of the building,

W = 90 + 675

W = 765 J

The average retirement age for a certain country was reported to be 56.4 years according to an international group dedicated to promoting trade and economic growth. With the pension system operating with a​ deficit, a bill was introduced by the government during the summer to raise the minimum retirement age from 60 to 62. Suppose a survey of 40 retiring citizens is taken to investigate whether the new bill has raised the average age at which people actually retire. Assume the standard deviation of the retirement age is 55 years. Using α=0.10

Required:
Calculate the probability of a Type II error occurring if the actual population age is 57.5 years old.

Answers

Answer:

Null hypothesis is accepted

The retiring citizens is taken to investigate whether the new bill has raised the average age at which people actually retire.

μ = 57.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

The average retirement age for a certain country was reported to be 56.4 years

The mean of the sample x⁻ = 56.4

The standard  deviation of the Population 'σ'= 55 years

The mean of the population μ = 57.5

Null hypothesis: H₀:The retiring citizens is taken to investigate whether the new bill has raised the average age at which people actually retire.

μ = 57.5

Alternative Hypothesis : H₁: μ ≠57.5

Answers

Answer:

Answer is A $172.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Our output value is 575.50.

Step 2: We represent the unknown value with $x$.

Step 3: From step 1 above,$575.50=100\%$.

Step 4: Similarly, $x=30\%$.

Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations

$575.50=100\%(1)$.

$x=30\%(2)$.

Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both

equations have the same unit (%); we have

$\frac{575.50}{x}=\frac{100\%}{30\%}$

Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives

$\frac{x}{575.50}=\frac{30}{100}$

$\Rightarrow x=172.65$

Therefore, $30\%$ of $575.50$ is $172.65$

Answer:

The total that will be saved at a 30% discount is $172.65

Explanation:

Since, the marked up price of the item will be $575.50,

and the discount percentage is 30%,

Therefore, $ 172.65 will be saved.

Which equation has two real solutions?

A. x2 = –100
B. 5x2 = 1
C. 6x2 + 17 = 11
D. 7(x2 + 6) = 42

Answers

Answer:

B. 5x² = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

A. x² = –100

This equation has no solution because x² is always positive.

B. 5x² = 1

then x² = 1/5

then x = 1/(√5) or x = -1/(√5)

C. 6x² + 17 = 11

then 6x² = 11 - 17 = -6

then x² = -6/6 = -1  

This equation has no solution because x² is always positive.

D. 7(x + 6) = 42

then x + 6 = 42/7 = 6

then x = 6 - 6 = 0

SA = 1,176 ft².

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the surface area of the triangular prism, we can solve for the rectangular base, both triangular faces, and lateral sides separately.

For the rectangular base: (Use formula l×w)

20 × 18 = 360 ft²

For the triangular faces: (Use formula 1/2(b·h)

1/2(18 × 12) = 108 ft²

Since there are two faces, we need to double the amount.

108 × 2 = 216 ft².

Finally, solve for the lateral sides:

20 × 15 = 300 ft².

There are two sides, so:

300 × 2 = 600 ft².

Add up all of these areas:

600 + 216 + 360 = 1,176 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a research firm regularly conducts customer satisfaction surveys for an amusement park. A survey of 100 randomly selected park visitors on a weekday in May concluded the average age of visitors to the park was 37 years.

When the survey was repeated with 100 randomly selected park visitors on a Saturday in May the average age of visitors to the park was determined to be 17 years.

(a) The population of interest in this situation is the average age of visitors to the park in MAY during weekdays or weekends.

(b) Two samples are described in the above situation, that is;

A survey of 100 randomly selected park visitors on a weekday in May.A survey of 100 randomly selected park visitors on a Saturday in May.

(c) The average age of 37 years is a statistic as it is the sample average age of visitors to the park on a weekday, i.e. [tex]\bar X_1[/tex] = 37 years.

(d) The above information represents a quantitative variable because in this we are concerned about the average age of visitors in the park which is a numeric value and we are not interested in any qualitative aspect.

(e) The possible explanation for the large difference in age between the two samples would be that during weekdays most of the teenagers or children below 20 years of age are not able to come to parks because of their schools, coachings or some studies related work.

But during weekends like Saturday, the schools or coaching institutions are generally closed due to which they are able to come to parks to play and because of this there are large number of children below 20 years of age who visit parks on weekends.

b)Combinations: 20,160

c)Permutations: 40320

d)Combinations: 8

Answers

Answer:

c) Permutations: 40320

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that permutations are groupings in which the order of the objects matters. Combinations are groupings where content matters but order does not.

In this case, then the batting order, therefore the order does matter, therefore, it would be a permutation, where n = 8 and r = 7

nPr = n! / (n-r)!

Replacing:

8P7 = 8! / (8-7)! = 40320

Which means that the answer is c) Permutations: 40320

Z-score:

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question:

Whoever has the higher z-score should be offered the job.

Alissa:

[tex]X = 68.5, \mu = 60.4, \sigma = 9[/tex]

So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{68.5 - 60.4}{9}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.9[/tex]

Morgan:

[tex]X = 252.5, \mu = 227, \sigma = 17[/tex]

So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{252.5 - 227}{17}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.5[/tex]

Norma:

[tex]X = 7.96, \mu = 6.7, \sigma = 0.7[tex]

So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{7.96 - 6.7}{0.7}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.8[/tex]

Due to the higher Z-score, Norma should be offered the job

Do consumers spend more on a trip to Target or​ Walmart? Suppose researchers interested in this question collected a systematic sample for 84 Target customers and 80 Walmart customers by asking customers for their purchase amount as they left the store. Using the given summary​ statistics, researchers calculated a​ 95% confidence interval for the mean difference between Target and Walmart purchase amounts. The interval was ​($negative 15.05​,$negative 2.95​). Explain in context what this interval means.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval for the difference between two population means is written in the form,

difference in sample means ± margin of error

The difference in sample means is the point estimate for the difference in population means. In the given scenario, the point estimate is the difference in mean amount spent by the sampled customers on a trip to Target or​ Walmart.

Since the interval was (- $15.05​,$2.95), it means that the lower limit is - $15.05 and the upper limit us $2.95.

Therefore, the 95% confidence interval is providing a range that we are 95% confident that the true difference in mean amount spent by Target customers and Walmart customers falls between - $15.05​ and $2.95

There are 11 apples in a basket. 9 of these apples are green. The rest of them are red. What is the ratio of red apples to all apples in the basket? What is the ratio of red apples to green apples?

Answers

Answer:

Red apples to all apples =2/11

Red apples to green apples =2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 11 total apples 9 of them are green and the rest are red so there are 11-9=2 red apples

The ratio of red apples to all apples = number of red apples ÷ total apples number = 2÷11

The ratio of red apples to green apples = number of red apples ÷ number of green apples = 2÷9

Answer:

Red apples to all apples =2/11

Red apples to green apples =2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 11 total apples 9 of them are green and the rest are red so there are 11-9=2 red apples

The ratio of red apples to all apples = number of red apples ÷ total apples number = 2÷11

The ratio of red apples to green apples = number of red apples ÷ number of green apples = 2÷9

Step-by-step explanation:

Perhaps the most popular fighter since the turn of the decade, Ronda Rousey is famous for defeating her opponents quickly. The five number summary for the times of her first 12 UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) fights, in seconds, is .(a) Only three of her fights have lasted more than a minute, at 289, 267, and 66 seconds, respectively. Use the IQR method to see which, if any, of these values are high outliers. (b) Are there any low outliers in these data, according to the IQR method? (c) Draw the boxplot for Ronda Rousey's fight times. (d) Based on the boxplot or five number summary, would we expect Ronda's mean fight time to be greater than or less than her median?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The variable of interest is "the time a fight lasts" measured in seconds

The five number summary for her first 12 UFC fights are:

Minimum: Min= 14

First Quartile: Q₁= 25

Second Quartile/Median: Me= 44

Third Quartile: Q₃= 64

Maximum: Max= 289

a)

Three of her fights lasted more than one minute: 289, 267, 66. Out of these three fights, you have to determine if they are outliers using the IQR method.

The IQR is the distance between the third quartile and the first quartile

IQR= Q₃ - Q₁= 64 - 25= 39

Remember, an outlier is an observation that is significantly distant from the rest of the data set. They usually represent experimental errors (such as a measurement) or atypical observations. Some statistical measurements, such as the sample mean, are severely affected by this type of values and their presence tends to cause misleading results on a statistical analysis.  

Considering the 1st quartile (Q₁), the 3rd quartile (Q₃) and the interquartile range IQR, any value X is considered an outlier if:

X < Q₁ - 1.5 IQR

X > Q₃ + 1.5 IQR

Or extreme outliers if:

X < Q₁ - 3 IQR

X > Q₃ + 3 IQR

The limits that define if a value is an outlier or not are:

X < 25 - 1.5*39 = -33.5

X > 64 + 1.5*39= 122.5

And for extreme outliers:

X < 25 - 3*39 = -92

X > 64 + 3*39= 181

So fights that lasted less than -33.5 or more than 122.5 seconds are to be considered outliers, and those who lasted less than -92 or more than 181 seconds are extreme outliers.

Out of the three fights, the ones that lasted 289 and 267 seconds can be considered extreme values.

b) The minimum observed value for this data set is 14 seconds, values are considered to be outliers if they are less to -33.5, so there is no low outliers on the sample.

As you can see, both values that allow you to determine if the observation is an outlier or not are negative, since the variable is "the time a fight lasts" it is impossible for it to have negative values. The lowest value of time a fight can last is "zero seconds". Although mathematically correct, these values make no sense.

c)

See attachment.

d)

The average or mean is a measurement of central tendency that shows you the value around which most of the distribution will be. It is very affected by the presence of outliers, especially extreme ones. Outliers make the mean "move" towards them, this means, that if there are small outliers, then the mean will move to the lower side of the distribution. But if the outliers are big, then the mean will move to the higher side of the distribution.

For example, let's say 5 of the fight times were:

10, 37, 49, 51, 68

For these values the mean would be:

X[bar]₀= ∑X/n= (10+37+49+51+68)/5= 215/5= 43

Now let's change one of these values for an extreme one:

Small value:

0, 37, 49, 51, 68

X[bar]₁= ∑X/n= (0+37+49+51+68)/5= 205/5= 41

⇒ As you can see, one change for a smaller value reduces the mean value X[bar]₁ < X[bar]₀

Big value:

10, 37, 49, 51, 268

X[bar]₂= ∑X/n= (10+37+49+51+268)/5= 415/5= 83

⇒ In this case, changing one of the 5 values to a bigger one moved the mean to the right: X[bar]₀ < X[bar]₂

So for the given distribution, since there are at least two high outliers, you'd expect the mean to be greater than the median.

I hope this helps!

Determine the center and radius of the circle described by the question.

(X+2)

Answers

The question is incomplete, I will however explain, with an illustration, how to determine the center and radius of a circle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard equation of a circle is given as:

(x - a)² + (y - b)² = r² ........................(1)

Where (a, b) is the center of the circle, and r is the radius.

An expression can be given for us to find the center and the radius of the circle.

Suppose we were given the expression:

x² + y² - 10x + 4y - 7 = 0.....................(2)

To find the center and the radius, it is left for us to rewrite (2) in the form of (1).

Rearranging (2), we have

(x² - 10x) + (y² + 4y) = 7

Completing the squares of each bracket

(x² - 10x + 25 - 25) + (y² + 4y + 4 - 4) = 7

(x² - 10x + 25) + (y² + 4y + 4) - 25 - 4 = 7

(x² - 10x + 25) + (y² + 4y + 4) - 29 = 7

(x - 5)² + (y + 2)² = 7 + 29

(x - 5)² + (y + 2)² = 36

Or

(x - 5)² + (y + 2)² = 6² .....................(3)

Comparing (3) with one, we see that

a = 5, b = -2, and r = 6

Therefore it is a circle centered at (5, -2) with a 6 unit radius.
