Answer:
Option A.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given function is
[tex]a(n)=4n-20[/tex]
It can be written as
[tex]a=4n-20[/tex]
Add 20 on both sides.
[tex]a+20=4n-20+20[/tex]
[tex]a+20=4n[/tex]
Divide both sides by 4.
[tex]\dfrac{a+20}{4}=n[/tex]
Interchange the sides.
[tex]n=\dfrac{a+20}{4}[/tex]
Now, it can written in the function form as
[tex]n(a)=\dfrac{a+20}{4}[/tex]
Therefore, the correct option is A.

Correct question:
The vector matrix [ [tex] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}2\\7\end{array}\right] [/tex] is dilated by a factor of 1.5 and then reflected across the x axis. If the resulting matrix is [a/b] then a=??? and b=???
Answer:
a = 3
b = 10.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Vector matrix = [tex] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}2\\7\end{array}\right] [/tex]
Dilation factor = 1.5
Since the vector matrix is dilated by 1.5, we have:
[tex] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1.5 * 2\\1.5 * 7\end{array}\right] [/tex]
= [tex] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}3\\10.5\end{array}\right] [/tex]
Here, we are told the vector is reflected on the x axis.
Therefore,

In the parallelogram below, solve for x and y. (Give your answer as a decimal, when necessary)
Answer: x = 15, y = 12.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the three angle measures of a triangle equals 180ᴼ
Since these triangles are vertical, the measures are congruent.
45 + 60 = 105
180 - 105 = 75
So now we know that 5x = 75ᴼ and 6y = 75ᴼ.
To find x, divide 75 by 5
75 / 5 = 15
x = 15
To find y, divide 75 by 6
75 / 6 = 12.5
y = 12.5

Parking at a large university can be extremely difficult at times. One particular university is trying to determine the location of a new parking garage. As part of their research, officials are interested in estimating the average parking time of students from within the various college on campus. A survey of 338 college of business (COBA) student yields the following descriptive information regarding the length of time (in minutes) it took them to find a parking spot. Note that the "Lo 95%" and "Up 95%" refer to the endpoint s of the desired confidence interval.
Variable N Lo 95% CI Means Up 95%CI SD
Parking time 388 9.1944 10.466 11.738 11.885
Explain what the phrase "95% confident" means when working with a 95 % confidence interval.
Answer:
The phrase "95% confident" means that there is a 95% confidence that the true mean parking time of students from within the various college on campus is included in the interval (9.1944, 11.738).
Step-by-step explanation:
The (1 - α)% confidence interval for population parameter implies that there is a (1 - α) probability that the true value of the parameter is included in the interval.
Or, the (1 - α)% confidence interval for the parameter implies that there is (1 - α)% confidence or certainty that the true parameter value is contained in the interval.
From the provided data the 95% confidence interval for the population mean parking time of students from within the various college on campus is:
CI = (9.1944, 11.738)
This 95% confidence interval implies that the true mean parking time of students from within the various college on campus is included in the interval (9.1944, 11.738) with a specific probability or confidence of 95%.
Thus, the phrase "95% confident" means that there is a 95% confidence that the true mean parking time of students from within the various college on campus is included in the interval (9.1944, 11.738).

The scores from a state standardized test have a mean of 80 and a standard deviation of 10. The distribution of the scores is roughly bell shaped. to find the percentage of scores that lie between 60 and 80.
Answer:
47.5%.
Step-by-step explanation:
60 is 2 standard deviations below the mean.
According to the emperical rule, there is approximately 90% of normally distributed data within 2 standard deviations of the mean. Your interval is half of that because it is the data between the mean and two standard deviations
below the mean. therefore, the answer is 47.5%.
The percentage of scores that lie between 60 and 80 is 47.75%
Z score is used to determine by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. The z score is given by:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\\\where\ x=raw\ score,\mu=mean, \sigma=standard\ deviation[/tex]
Given that:
μ = 80, σ = 10
[tex]For\ x=60:\\\\z=\frac{60-80}{10} =-2\\\\For\ x=80:\\\\z=\frac{80-80}{10} =0[/tex]
P(60 < x < 80) = P(-2 < z < 0) = P(z < 0) - P(z < -2) = 0.5 - 0.0228 = 47.75%

Eye Color Each of two parents has the genotype brown>blue, which consists of the pair of alleles that determine eye color, and each parent contributes one of those alleles to a child. Assume that if the child has at least one brown allele, that color will dominate and the eyes will be brown. (The actual determination of eye color is more complicated than that.) a. List the different possible outcomes. Assume that these outcomes are equally likely. b. What is the probability that a child of these parents will have the blue>blue genotype? c. What is the probability that the child will have brown eyes?
Answer:
A) Brown-Brown ,Brown-Blue, Blue-Brown, Blue-Blue B) 1/4 =0,25 C)3/4=0,75
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets mother's "BROWN" is "BROWN-M",
mother's "BLUE" is " BLUE-M"
Lets father's "BROWN" is "BROWN-F" and
father's "BLUE " is "BLUE-F"
The kid can have the genotype as follows (list of possible outcomes) :
1. BROWN-M>BROWN-F ( received BROWN as from mother as from father)
2. BROWN-M>BLUE-F ( Received BROWN from mother and BLUE from father)
3. BLUE-M>BROWN-F ( Received BLUE from mother and Brown from father)
4. BLUE-M>BLUE-F ( Received BLUE as from mother as from father)
b) As we can see in a) only 1 outcome from 4 is BLUE-BLUE. So the probability of BLUE-BLUE genotype is
P(BLUE>BLUE)=1/4=0.25
c) As we know that if the child has at least one brown allele, that color will dominate and the eyes will be brown.
It means that outcomes BROWN-BROWN, BROWN-BLUE and BLUE-BROWN determine brown color of eye. So the number of these outcomes is 3. Total amount of outcomes is 4.
So probability that eyes are brown is P(Brown eyes)=3/4 =0.75
A bus can carry a maximum of 60 passengers. Each row accommodates the same number of passengers. If two rows are added then each row would accommodate one passenger less for the bus to carry maximum number of passengers. Determine number of rows in the bus and no. Of passengers per row
Answer:
10 rows with 6 passengers per row
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of rows and y the number of passengers per row.
Then we can interpret the story as the following two equations:
xy=60
(x+2)(y-1)=60
Solving these two equations:
y=60/x
(x+2)(60/x-1)=60 (substitute y)
60 - x + 120/x - 2 = 60 (multiply by -x)
x² + 2x - 120 = 0 (factor)
(x-10)(x+12) = 0
x = 10
y = 60/10 = 6
and indeed 10 * 6 = 60 and also 12 * 5 = 60
Find the area of the surface correct to four decimal places by expressing the area in terms of a single integral and using your calculator to estimate the integral. The part of the surface that lies above the disk x2 + y2 ≤ 81
Answer:
A(s) = 255.8857
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the area of the surface correct to four decimal places by expressing the area in terms of a single integral and using your calculator to estimate the integral. The part of the surface z = e^-x^2-y^2 that lies above the disk x2 + y2 ≤ 81.
Given that:
[tex]Z = e^{-x^2-y^2}[/tex]
By applying rule; the partial derivatives with respect to x and y
[tex]\dfrac{\partial z }{\partial x}= -2xe^{-x^2-y^2}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{\partial z }{\partial y}= -2ye^{-x^2-y^2}[/tex]
The integral over the general region D with respect to x and y is :
[tex]A(s) = \int \int _D \sqrt{1+(\dfrac{\partial z}{\partial x} )^2 +(\dfrac{\partial z}{\partial y} )^2 }\ dA[/tex]
[tex]A(s) = \int \int _D \sqrt{1+(-2xe^{-x^2-y^2})^2 +(-2ye^{-x^2-y^2})^2 } \ dA[/tex]
[tex]A(s) = \int \int _D \sqrt{1+4x^2({e^{-x^2-y^2})^2 +4y^2({e^{-x^2-y^2}})^2 }} \ dA[/tex]
[tex]A(s) = \int \int _D \sqrt{1+(4x^2+4y^2)({e^{-x^2-y^2})^2 }} \ dA[/tex]
[tex]A(s) = \int \int _D \sqrt{1+(4x^2+4y^2)e^{-2}({{x^2+y^2}) }} \ dA[/tex]
By relating the equation to cylindrical coordinates
[tex]A(s) = \int \int_D \sqrt{1+4r^2 e^{-2r^2} }. rdA[/tex]
The bounds for integration for the circle within the cylinder [tex]x^2+y^2 =81[/tex] is r =9
[tex]A(s) = \int \limits ^{2 \pi}_{0} \int \limits^9_0 r \sqrt{1+4r^2 e^{-2r^2} }. dr d\theta[/tex]
[tex]A(s) = {2 \pi} \int \limits^9_0 r \sqrt{1+4r^2 e^{-2r^2} }\ dr[/tex]
Using integral calculator to estimate the integral,we have:

Find the magnitude of side R. Show work please!
Answer:
21.7 metres (assuming the triangle is a right triangle)
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming this is a right triangle, we can simply use the Pythagorean Theorem, which states that in a right triangle with legs a and b and hypotenuse c:
a² + b² = c²
Here, a = 20, b = 8.5, and R = c. Plug these in:
a² + b² = c²
20² + 8.5² = R²
400 + 72.25 = R²
472.25 = R²
R = √472.25 ≈ 21.7 m
Thus, R is about 21.7 metres.

The curvature of a plane parametric curve x = f(t), y = g(t) is $ \kappa = \dfrac{|\dot{x} \ddot{y} - \dot{y} \ddot{x}|}{[\dot{x}^2 + \dot{y}^2]^{3/2}}$ where the dots indicate derivatives with respect to t. Use the above formula to find the curvature. x = 6et cos(t), y = 6et sin(t)
Answer:
The curvature is modelled by [tex]\kappa = \frac{e^{-t}}{6\sqrt{2}}[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of the curvature is:
[tex]\kappa = \frac{|\dot {x}\cdot \ddot {y}-\dot{y}\cdot \ddot{x}|}{[\dot{x}^{2}+\dot{y}^{2}]^{\frac{3}{2} }}[/tex]
The parametric componentes of the curve are:
[tex]x = 6\cdot e^{t} \cdot \cos t[/tex] and [tex]y = 6\cdot e^{t}\cdot \sin t[/tex]
The first and second derivative associated to each component are determined by differentiation rules:
First derivative
[tex]\dot{x} = 6\cdot e^{t}\cdot \cos t - 6\cdot e^{t}\cdot \sin t[/tex] and [tex]\dot {y} = 6\cdot e^{t}\cdot \sin t + 6\cdot e^{t} \cdot \cos t[/tex]
[tex]\dot x = 6\cdot e^{t} \cdot (\cos t - \sin t)[/tex] and [tex]\dot {y} = 6\cdot e^{t}\cdot (\sin t + \cos t)[/tex]
Second derivative
[tex]\ddot{x} = 6\cdot e^{t}\cdot (\cos t-\sin t)+6\cdot e^{t} \cdot (-\sin t -\cos t)[/tex]
[tex]\ddot x = -12\cdot e^{t}\cdot \sin t[/tex]
[tex]\ddot {y} = 6\cdot e^{t}\cdot (\sin t + \cos t) + 6\cdot e^{t}\cdot (\cos t - \sin t)[/tex]
[tex]\ddot{y} = 12\cdot e^{t}\cdot \cos t[/tex]
Now, each term is replaced in the the curvature equation:
[tex]\kappa = \frac{|6\cdot e^{t}\cdot (\cos t - \sin t)\cdot 12\cdot e^{t}\cdot \cos t-6\cdot e^{t}\cdot (\sin t + \cos t)\cdot (-12\cdot e^{t}\cdot \sin t)|}{\left\{\left[6\cdot e^{t}\cdot (\cos t - \sin t)\right]^{2}+\right[6\cdot e^{t}\cdot (\sin t + \cos t)\left]^{2}\right\}^{\frac{3}{2}}} }[/tex]
And the resulting expression is simplified by algebraic and trigonometric means:
[tex]\kappa = \frac{72\cdot e^{2\cdot t}\cdot \cos^{2}t-72\cdot e^{2\cdot t}\cdot \sin t\cdot \cos t + 72\cdot e^{2\cdot t}\cdot \sin^{2}t+72\cdot e^{2\cdot t}\cdot \sin t \cdot \cos t}{[36\cdot e^{2\cdot t}\cdot (\cos^{2}t -2\cdot \cos t \cdot \sin t +\sin^{2}t)+36\cdot e^{2\cdot t}\cdot (\sin^{2}t+2\cdot \cos t \cdot \sin t +\cos^{2} t)]^{\frac{3}{2} }}[/tex]
[tex]\kappa = \frac{72\cdot e^{2\cdot t}}{[72\cdot e^{2\cdot t}]^{\frac{3}{2} } }[/tex]
[tex]\kappa = [72\cdot e^{2\cdot t}]^{-\frac{1}{2} }[/tex]
[tex]\kappa = 72^{-\frac{1}{2} }\cdot e^{-t}[/tex]
[tex]\kappa = \frac{e^{-t}}{6\sqrt{2}}[/tex]
The curvature is modelled by [tex]\kappa = \frac{e^{-t}}{6\sqrt{2}}[/tex].
Adult male heights are normally distributed with a mean of 70 inches and a standard deviation of 3 inches. The average basketball player is 79 inches tall. Using the
empirical rule, approximately what percent of the adult male population is taller than the average basketball player?
0.15%
0.30%
49.85%
99.7%
Answer:
0.15%
Step-by-step explanation:
3 standard deviations encompasses 99.7% of the data symmetrically around the mean with 0.15% on each side that is above and below. so above would be 0.15%
The percentage of the adult male population s taller than the average basketball player is 0.15%. This option A is correct.
What is make adult height?If their heights are distributed with a mean of 70 inches the SD of 3 inches and the average play is 79 inches stated by the empirical rule. The average population should be 0.15% by the rule.
Based on the standard deviation that shows the three deviations that includes 99.7% of the data symmetrically with the mean of 0.15% on each side hence i.e above and below.
Usin the standardize x to z = (x - μ) / σ, we get 79-70 / 3 as 0.15

Suppose you flip 3 quarters, one at a time. What is the probability that you will
get the combination below?
Heads
Tails
Heads
Answer:
The probability of the combination {H, T and H} is 0.125.
Step-by-step explanation:
The sample space of flipping a quarter is:
S = {H and T}
The probability of both outcomes is same, i.e. P (H) = P (T) = 0.50.
It is provided that three quarters are flipped one at a time.
The outcomes of all the three quarters are independent of each other.
Compute the probability of the combination {H, T and H} as follows:
[tex]P(\text{H},\text{T and H}) = P(\text{H})\times P(\text{T})\times P(\text{H})[/tex]
[tex]=0.50\times 0.50\times 0.50\\=0.125[/tex]
Thus, the probability of the combination {H, T and H} is 0.125.
There are 12 teams, each representing a different country, in a women’s Olympic basketball tournament. In how many ways is it possible for the gold, silver, and bronze medals to be awarded? Use the formula for permutations to find your answer.
Answer:
1320 ways
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve we need to use permutations and factorials. If we wanted to find where they would all place 1-12, we would do 12!
12! is the same as 12x11x10x9x8... etc
But in this problem, we are only looking for the top 3.
We can set up a formula
[tex]\frac{n!}{(n-r)!}[/tex]
N is the number of options that are available and r represents the amount we are choosing
In this case, we have 12 teams so n=12
We are looking for the top 3 so r=3
[tex]\frac{12!}{(12-3)!}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{12!}{9!}[/tex]
We expand the equation and cancel out
[tex]\frac{12x11x10x9x8x7x6x5x4x3x2}{9x8x7x6x5x4x3x2}[/tex]
Notice how both sides can cancel out every number 9 and below
That leaves us with 12x11x10
1320 ways
The possible ways for the gold, silver, and bronze medals to be awarded is 1320
What is permutation?A permutation of a set is, loosely speaking, an arrangement of its members into a sequence or linear order, or if the set is already ordered, a rearrangement of its elements.
The word "permutation" also refers to the act or process of changing the linear order of an ordered set.
Given that, there are 12 teams, each representing a different country, in a women’s Olympic basketball tournament.
We need to find that, in how many ways is it possible for the gold, silver, and bronze medals to be awarded,
Using the concept of permutation, to find the number of ways
ⁿPₓ = n!/(n-x)!
= 12! / (12-3)!
= 12! / 9!
= 1320
Hence, the possible ways for the gold, silver, and bronze medals to be awarded is 1320

Answer:
Option B) 0.52 to 0.72
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a very trivial exercise. A very good point that is required to solve this question is that the wider the Confidence level, the wider the Confidence Interval.
Let us consider the options one after the other for the width of interval:
Option A) 0.56 to 0.68
Width of Interval = 0.68 - 0.56 = 0.12
Option B) 0.52 to 0.72
Width of Interval = 0.72 - 0.52 = 0.20
Option C) 0.53 to 0.71
Width of Interval = 0.71 - 0.53 = 0.18
Option D) 0.55 to 0.69
Width of Interval = 0.69 - 0.55 = 0.14

Answer:
3780 different words
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of possible words that can be formed by a word with n letters is given by n! (factorial of n), but when we have repeated letters, we need to divide the result by the factorial of each number of repeated letters.
In this case, we have 9 letters, but we have 4 times A, 2 times B and 2 times C, so the formula to calculate the number of different words is:
[tex]number = {9!}/(4!2!2!)[/tex]
[tex]number = (9*8*7*6*5*4*3*2)/(4*3*2*2*2)[/tex]
[tex]number = 3780\ words[/tex]
So we can form 3780 different words.

The state of Wisconsin would like to understand the fraction of its adult residents that consumed alcohol in the last year, specifically if the rate is different from the national rate of 70%. To help them answer this question, they conduct a random sample of 852 residents and ask them about their alcohol consumption.
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
What we should do is the following:
First, from the random sample of 852 researchers, it is necessary to obtain the number of adult residents who consumed alcohol in the past year.
After the above, we must calculate the proportion of adult residents who consumed alcohol in the last year by dividing the number of adult residents who consumed alcohol in the last year by 852.
After this, we must compare if the proportion is exactly 70% or different from it.
We have the following hypotheses:
Null Hypothesis: The proportion of adult residents who consumed alcohol in the last year in the state of Wisconsin is exactly 70%
Alternative hypothesis: The proportion of adult residents who consumed alcohol in the last year in the state of Wisconsin is not equal to 70%

two taxis be the same?
Answer:
30 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Jose's charges are ...
j = 5 + 0.30m . . . . . for m miles
Kathy's charges are ...
k = 8 +0.20m . . . . . for m miles
The charges are the same when ...
j = k
5 +0.30m = 8 + 0.20m
0.30m = 3 + 0.20m . . . . subtract 5
0.10m = 3 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 0.20m
m = 30 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 10
The charges will be the same for a distance of 30 miles.
Classify the function as linear or quadratic and identify the quadratic, linear, and constant terms. y=(3x+4)(-2x-3)
Answer:
[tex] y = -6x^2 -17 x -12[/tex]
And since the higher exponent for the x term is 2 we can classify the equation as quadratic
Quadratic term: -6
Linear term: -17
Constant term: -12
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem we have the following equation:
[tex] y = (3x+4)(-2x-3)[/tex]
And we can distribute the terms and we got:
[tex] y = -6x^2 -9x -8x -12[/tex]
And solving we got:
[tex] y = -6x^2 -17 x -12[/tex]
And since the higher exponent for the x term is 2 we can classify the equation as quadratic
Quadratic term: -6
Linear term: -17
Constant term: -12
Suppose that E(θˆ1) = E(θˆ2) = θ, V(θˆ 1) = σ2 1 , and V(θˆ2) = σ2 2 . Consider the estimator θˆ 3 = aθˆ 1 + (1 − a)θˆ 2. a Show that θˆ 3 is an unbiased estimator for θ. b If θˆ1 and θˆ2 are independent, how should the constant a be chosen in order to minimize the variance of θˆ3?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
[tex]E( \hat \theta _1) = \theta \ \ \ \ E( \hat \theta _2) = \theta \ \ \ \ V( \hat \theta _1) = \sigma_1^2 \ \ \ \ V(\hat \theta_2) = \sigma_2^2[/tex]
If we are to consider the estimator [tex]\hat \theta _3 = a \hat \theta_1 + (1-a) \hat \theta_2[/tex]
a. Then, for [tex]\hat \theta_3[/tex] to be an unbiased estimator ; Then:
[tex]E ( \hat \theta_3) = E ( a \hat \theta_1+ (1-a) \hat \theta_2)[/tex]
[tex]E ( \hat \theta_3) = aE ( \theta_1) + (1-a) E ( \hat \theta_2)[/tex]
[tex]E ( \hat \theta_3) = a \theta + (1-a) \theta = \theta[/tex]
b) If [tex]\hat \theta _1 \ \ and \ \ \hat \theta_2[/tex] are independent
[tex]V(\hat \theta _3) = V (a \hat \theta_1+ (1-a) \hat \theta_2)[/tex]
[tex]V(\hat \theta _3) = a ^2 V ( \hat \theta_1) + (1-a)^2 V ( \hat \theta_2)[/tex]
Thus; in order to minimize the variance of [tex]\hat \theta_3[/tex] ; then constant a can be determined as :
[tex]V( \hat \theta_3) = a^2 \sigma_1^2 + (1-a)^2 \sigma^2_2[/tex]
Using differentiation:
[tex]\dfrac{d}{da}(V \ \hat \theta_3) = 0 \implies 2a \ \sigma_1^2 + 2(1-a)(-1) \sigma_2^2 = 0[/tex]
⇒
[tex]a (\sigma_1^2 + \sigma_2^2) = \sigma^2_2[/tex]
[tex]\hat a = \dfrac{\sigma^2_2}{\sigma^2_1+\sigma^2_2}[/tex]
This implies that
[tex]\dfrac{d}{da}(V \ \hat \theta_3)|_{a = \hat a} = 2 \ \sigma_1^2 + 2 \ \sigma_2^2 > 0[/tex]
So, [tex]V( \hat \theta_3)[/tex] is minimum when [tex]\hat a = \dfrac{\sigma_2^2}{\sigma_1^2+\sigma_2^2}[/tex]
As such; [tex]a = \dfrac{1}{2}[/tex] if [tex]\sigma_1^2 \ \ = \ \ \sigma_2^2[/tex]
