A cleaning company's monthly earnings depend on the

number of houses cleaned, h. Spotless Homes charges

$150 each month to clean one house.

The owners of Spotless Homes plan to raise their fees

starting next month. They will charge $175 each month to

clean each house. The owners write this new equation to

represent the new earnings, e, for cleaning h houses:

e = 150 + 25h

Is their equation correct? Why or Why not? Explain your

reasoning

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The equation is not correct because the statement indicates that they charged $150 to clean one house which means that the equation showed that the earnings were the result of multiplying the price to clean one house for the number of houses cleaned, which is:

e=150h

As the statement indicates that they plan to raise their fees and they will charge $175 to clean each house, this means that the price changes from 150 to 175 and you have to replace this in the formula and because of this the new equation would be:

e=175h

The equation the owners wrote is not right because it shows that the earnings are equal to a fixed charge of $150 plus a price of $25 for the number of houses and the statement says that the price is $175 for each house so the number of houses cleaned should be multiplied for that price.

The number of bacterial colonies of a certain type in samples of polluted water has a Poisson distribution with a mean of 3 per cubic centimeter (cm3). (a) If eight 1 cm3 samples are independently selected from this water, find the probability that at least one sample will contain one or more bacterial colonies. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) 1 Correct: Your answer is correct. seenKey 1.000 (b) How many 1 cm3 samples should be selected in order to have a probability of approximately 0.95 of seeing at least one bacterial colony

Answers

Answer:

a) 1 = 100% probability that at least one sample will contain one or more bacterial colonies.

b) 1 sample should be selected in order to have a probability of approximately 0.95 of seeing at least one bacterial colony

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the poisson and the binomial distributions.

Poisson distribution:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Probability of a single sample having at least one bacterial colonies.

Poisson distribution with a mean of 3 per cubic centimeter (cm3), which means that [tex]\mu = 3[/tex]

This is:

[tex]P(X \geq 3) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0495[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 3) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.0495 = 0.9505[/tex]

(a) If eight 1 cm3 samples are independently selected from this water, find the probability that at least one sample will contain one or more bacterial colonies.

Multiples samples means that the binomial distribution is used.

0.9505 probability of a sample having at least one colony, which means that [tex]p = 0.9505[/tex]

8 samples means that [tex]n = 8[/tex]

The desired probability is:

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{8,0}.(0.9505)^{0}.(0.0495)^{8} \approx 0[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0 = 1[/tex]

1 = 100% probability that at least one sample will contain one or more bacterial colonies.

(b) How many 1 cm3 samples should be selected in order to have a probability of approximately 0.95 of seeing at least one bacterial colony

We have to find [tex]P(X \geq 1)[/tex] for samples of 1,2,3,..., until this probability is 0.95. So

n = 1

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{1,0}.(0.9505)^{0}.(0.0495)^{1} = 0.0495[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.0495 = 0.9505[/tex]

0.9505 > 0.95

1 sample should be selected in order to have a probability of approximately 0.95 of seeing at least one bacterial colony

Answer:

18a^3b^2/2ab

To simplify the given expression, we apply property of exponents

18/2 = 9

x^m / x^n= x^ (m-n) In division we subtract the exponents

So given expression becomes

9a^2b

The answer has only positive exponents

i think this is what you want?

The simplified exponential notation of the given expression is [tex]9a^2b[/tex].

The given expression is: [tex]\frac{18a^3b^2}{2ab}[/tex]

What is an exponential expression?

An expression in the form of [tex]a^pb^qc^r[/tex].. is called exponential expression.

We can write the above expression as:

[tex](\frac{18}{2} )(\frac{a^{3} }{a} )(\frac{b^{2} }{b} )[/tex]

We know that [tex]\frac{a^m}{a^n} =a^{m-n}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{a^{3} }{a} =a^{3-1} =a^{2} \\\frac{b^{2} }{b}=b^{2-1} =b[/tex]

So, [tex](\frac{18}{2} )(\frac{a^{3} }{a} )(\frac{b^{2} }{b} )[/tex] =[tex]9a^2b[/tex]

Hence, the simplified exponential notation of the given expression is [tex]9a^2b[/tex].

A savings account starts with $181.25. After 7 years of continuous compounding at an interest rate, r, the account has $1450. What is the interest rate percentage? Round the answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

         Rate of interest by which amount $181.25 becomes $1450 in 7 years by continuous compounding will be 29.71%.

Rule for the continuous compounding: Expression for the final amount comounded continuously is given by,

         Final amount = [tex]Pe^{rt}[/tex]

         Here, P = Principal amount

                    r = Rate of interest

                    t = Duration of investment

Given in the question,

P = $181.25

t = 7 years

Final amount = $1450

Substitute these values in the expression,

[tex]1450=181.25e^{7r}[/tex]

[tex]e^{7r}=8[/tex]

[tex]\text{ln}(e)^{7r}=\text{ln}(8)[/tex]

[tex]7r=2.07944[/tex]

[tex]r=0.2971[/tex]

[tex]r=29.71\%[/tex]

       Therefore, rate of intereset for the investment is 29.71%.
