Find the equation of a line which is perpendicular to y = 1/2x - 5 and goes throught the point (0, 0). Write your answer in the form y=mx+c.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: y = -2x

Step-by-step explanation:

For a line to be perpendicular to another, it must have the opposite reciprocal slope.  In this case, that means 1/2 becomes -2/1 or -2.  For the line to pass through 0,0 the y intercept must be 0.  Thus the line is y = -2x + 0, or y = -2x

One rule of thumb in the fast-food restaurant business is a "4 times markup": The price of a food item should be four times the price of the ingredients used in making the item. If the cost of ingredients used in making a taco is 1.5 dollars, what should be the price of the taco?

Answers

Answer:

The price of taco should be $6

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule is that the price of a food item should be four times the price of the ingredients used in making the food item.

mathematically,

[tex]y = 4x[/tex]

where [tex]y[/tex] is the price of the food item

¿Qué hora es? Si el cuadrado de la mitad del
número de horas que faltan transcurrir del día,
coinciden con el número de horas transcurridas
del día.

Answers

Answer:

Si el cuadrado de la mitad del número de horas que faltan transcurrir del día coinciden con el número de horas transcurridas del día, son las 16:00 hs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Si el cuadrado de la mitad del número de horas que faltan transcurrir del día coinciden con el número de horas transcurridas del día, son las 16:00 hs.

Esto es así porque, como primera medida, la mitad de horas que faltan transcurrir del día no puede ser mayor a 4, puesto que 5 al cuadrado da como resultado 25, es decir, excede el número de horas que tiene un día.

Entonces, siguiendo con dicho razonamiento en sentido decreciente, tenemos que 4 al cuadrado da como resultado 16 (4 x 4). En este caso, 4 sería la mitad de horas que faltan transcurrir en el día, y 16 las horas ya transcurridas. Entonces, como 16 mas 8 da 24, y esa es la cantidad de horas que tiene el día, ésta es la opción correcta.

A veterinarian is enclosing a rectangular outdoor running area against his building for the dogs he cares for. He needs to maximize the area using 100 feet of fencing. The quadratic function A(x)=x(100−2x) gives the area, A, of the dog run for the length, x, of the building that will border the dog run. Find the length of the building that should border the dog run to give the maximum area, and then find the maximum area of the dog run.

Answers

Answer:

a) The length of the building that should border the dog run to give the maximum area = 25feet

b)    The maximum area of the dog run  = 1250 s q feet²

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given function

                       A(x) = x (100-2x)

                      A (x) = 100x - 2x²...(i)

Differentiating equation (i) with respective to 'x'

             [tex]\frac{dA}{dx} = 100 (1) - 2 (2x)[/tex]

     ⇒    [tex]\frac{dA}{dx} = 100 - 4 x[/tex]      ...(ii)

Equating  zero

         ⇒ 100 - 4x =0

         ⇒  100 = 4x

Dividing '4' on both sides , we get

             x = 25

Step(ii):-

Again differentiating equation (ii) with respective to 'x' , we get

    [tex]\frac{d^{2} A}{dx^{2} } = -4 (1) < 0[/tex]

Therefore The maximum value at x = 25

The length of the building that should border the dog run to give the maximum area = 25

Step(iii)

  Given  A (x) = x ( 100 -2 x)

substitute  'x' = 25 feet

             A(x) = 25 ( 100 - 2(25))

                    = 25(50)

                   = 1250

Conclusion:-

   The maximum area of the dog run  = 12 50  s q feet²

Where:

The height of a certain plant is determined by a dominant allele T corresponding to tall plants, and a recessive allele t corresponding to short (or
dwarf) plants. If both parent plants have genotype Tt, compute the probability that the offspring plants will be tall. Hint: Draw a Punnett square.
(Enter your probability as a fraction.)​

Answers

Answer:

The probability of the plants being tall is equal to P(TT) + P(Tt)= 1/4+1/2=3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The characteristic "height" of a plant is determined by the alleles "tall" T (dominant) and "short" a (recessive). If both parents are Tt, you have to calculate the probability of the offspring being tall (TT or Tt)

To construct the Punnet square you have to make a table, where the parental alleles will be in the margins, for example: the father's alleles in the columns and the mother's alleles in the rows.

Each parent will produce a haploid gamete that will carry one of the alleles, so the probability for the offspring receiving one of the alleles is 1/2

Father (Tt): gametes will carry either the dominant allele T or the recessive allele t with equal probability 1/2

Mother (Tt): gametes will also carry either the dominant allele T or the recessive allele t with equal probability 1/2

Then you have to cross each allele to determine all possible outcomes for the offsprings. For each cell, the probability of obtaining both alleles will be the product of the probability of each allele (See attachment)

First combination, the offspring will receive one dominant allele from his father and one dominant allele from his mother: TT, the probability of obtaining an offspring with this genotype will be P(T) * P(T) = 1/2*1/2=1/4

Second combination, the offspring will receive the recessive allele from the father and the dominant allele from the mother, then its genotype till be tT with probability: P(t)*P(T)= 1/2*1/2=1/4

Third combination, the offspring will receive one dominant allele from his father and one recessive allele from his mother, the resulting genotype will be Tt with probability: P(T)*P(t)= 1/2*1/2=1/4

Combination, the offspring will receive both recessive alleles from his parents, the resulting genotype will be tt with probability: P(t)*P(t)= 1/2*1/2=1/4

So there are three possible genotypes for the next generation:

TT with probability P(TT)= 1/4

Tt with probability: P(Tt)+P(tT)=1/4+1/4=1/2⇒ This genotype is observed twice so you have to add them.

tt with probability P(tt)= 1/4

Assuming this genotype shows complete dominance, you'll observe the characteristic "Tall" in individuals that carry the dominant allele "T", i.e. individuals with genotype "TT" and "Tt"

So the probability of the plants being tall is equal to P(TT) + P(Tt)= 1/4+1/2=3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find a pair of numbers that when substituted in 2x-y we get 9.

because this equation is linear there are actually an infinite number of solutions. So all we have to to is pick a random number for x, say 3, and there will only be 1 value of y that will satisfy the equation, so we just plug it in.

let x =3

2x - y = 9 ⇒ 2×3 - y = 9

                ⇒ 6 -y = 9

(, –7.7)
(0.4, )

Answers

Answer:

(4.75, 2.5), (-0.35, -7.7), (0.4, -6.2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the line

[tex]y = 2x- 7[/tex]

Given the missing coordinates:

(4.75, )

(, –7.7)

(0.4, )

We know that every coordinate is of the form [tex](x,y)[/tex].

So, we can easily solve the for other variable if one variable is given from the given line using the graph or the given equation.

For the first coordinate:

(4.75, )

From graph it can be found that y = 2.5

Verifying using the equation.

Putting the value of x = 4.75 in the equation we get:

y = 2[tex]\times[/tex] 4.75 - 7

y = 9.5 - 7 = 2.5

So, the coordinate is  (4.75, 2.5)

For the second coordinate:

(, -7.7 )

From graph it can be found that x = -0.35

Verifying using the equation:

Putting the value of y = -7.7 in the equation we get:

-7.7 = 2x - 7

2x = -7.7 + 7 = -0.7

x = -0.35

So, the coordinate is  (-0.35, -7.7).

For the third coordinate:

(0.4, )

From graph it can be found that y = -6.2

Verifying using the equation.

Putting the value of x = 0.4 in the equation we get:

y = 2[tex]\times[/tex] 0.4 - 7

y = 0.8 - 7 = -6.2

So, the coordinate is  (0.4, -6.2)

Also, please refer to the attached graph.

So, the answer is:

(4.75, 2.5), (-0.35, -7.7), (0.4, -6.2)

Answer: its 2.5, -0.35, -6.2

Construct a​ 95% confidence interval for the population standard deviation sigma of a random sample of 15 crates which have a mean weight of 165.2 pounds and a standard deviation of 12.4 pounds. Round to the nearest thousandth. Assume the population is normally distributed.

Answers

Answer:

There is a 95% confidence that the sample has a mean between 158.92 pounds and 171.48 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that mean (μ) = 165.2 pounds, standard deviation (σ) = 12.4 pounds, sample size (n) = 15 crates. Confidence (C) = 95% = 0.95

α = 1 - C = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05

α/2 = 0.05/2 = 0.025

The z score of α/2 corresponds to the z score of 0.475 (0.5 - 0.025) which is 1.96. [tex]z_{\frac{\alpha}{2} }=1.96[/tex]

The margin of error (E) is given by:

[tex]E=z_{\frac{\alpha}{2} }\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } =1.96*\frac{12.4}{\sqrt{15} }= 6.28[/tex]

The confidence interval = μ ± E = 165.2 ± 6.28 = (158.92, 171.48)

The confidence interval is between 158.92 pounds and 171.48 pounds. There is a 95% confidence that the sample has a mean between 158.92 pounds and 171.48 pounds

The mean height of women in a country (ages 20-29) is 63.5 inches. A random sample of 50 women in this age group is selected. What is the probability that the mean height for the sample is greater than 64 inches? Assume the standard deviation equals 2.96.

Answers

Answer:

11.70% probability that the mean height for the sample is greater than 64 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

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.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this question:

[tex]\mu = 63.5, \sigma = 2.96, n = 50, s = \frac{2.96}{\sqrt{50}} = 0.4186[/tex]

What is the probability that the mean height for the sample is greater than 64 inches?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 64.

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{64 - 63.5}{0.4186}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.19[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.19[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.8830

1 - 0.8830 = 0.1170

11.70% probability that the mean height for the sample is greater than 64 inches

After scoring a touchdown, a football team may elect to attempt a two-point conversion, by running or passing the ball into the end zone. If successful, the team scores two points. For a certain football team, the probability that this play is successful is 0.40.

a.â Let X =1 if successful, X= 0 if not. Find the mean and variance of X.

b.â If the conversion is successful, the team scores 2 points; if not the team scores 0 points. Let Y be the number of points scored. Does Y have a Bernoulli distribution? If so, find the success probability. If not, explain why not.

c.â Find the mean and variance of Y.

Answers

Answer:

a) Mean of X = 0.40

Variance of X = 0.24

b) Y is a Bernoulli's distribution. Check Explanation for reasons.

c) Mean of Y = 0.80 points

Variance of Y = 0.96

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The probability that play is successful is 0.40. Hence, the probability that play isn't successful is then 1 - 0.40 = 0.60.

Random variable X represents when play is successful or not, X = 1 when play is successful and X = 0 when play isn't successful.

The probability mass function of X is then

X | Probability of X

0 | 0.60

1 | 0.40

The mean is given in terms of the expected value, which is expressed as

E(X) = Σ xᵢpᵢ

xᵢ = each variable

pᵢ = probability of each variable

Mean = E(X) = (0 × 0.60) + (1 × 0.40) = 0.40

Variance = Var(X) = Σx²p − μ²

μ = mean = E(X) = 0.40

Σx²p = (0² × 0.60) + (1² × 0.40) = 0.40

Variance = Var(X) = 0.40 - 0.40² = 0.24

b) If the conversion is successful, the team scores 2 points; if not the team scores 0 points. If Y ia the number of points that team scores.Y can take on values of 2 and 0 only.

A Bernoulli distribution is a discrete distribution with only two possible outcomes in which success occurs with probability of p and failure occurs with probability of (1 - p).

Since the probability of a successful conversion and subsequent 2 points is 0.40 and the probability of failure and subsequent 0 point is 0.60, it is evident that Y is a Bernoulli's distribution.

The probability mass function for Y is then

Y | Probability of Y

0 | 0.60

2 | 0.40

c) Mean and Variance of Y

Mean = E(Y)

E(Y) = Σ yᵢpᵢ

yᵢ = each variable

pᵢ = probability of each variable

E(Y) = (0 × 0.60) + (2 × 0.40) = 0.80 points

Variance = Var(Y) = Σy²p − μ²

μ = mean = E(Y) = 0.80

Σy²p = (0² × 0.60) + (2² × 0.40) = 1.60

Variance = Var(Y) = 1.60 - 0.80² = 0.96

Hope this Helps!!!

Fungi When4a- a x 3a + 7ais simplified it is equivalent to Using the passage below, please answer the question that follows.The Tuscarora people lived in the eastern areas of North Carolina in the 17th century. As European settlers moved into their homelands, tensions between these groups rose. European settlers moved onto native lands without apology. Soon Tuscarora women and children were being abducted and sold into slavery by the settlers. Tuscarora hunting parties were attacked and killed or sold into slavery. In 1710, prior to the outbreak of the Tuscarora War, the Tuscarora people made a plea to the governor of Pennsylvania. Desperate for peace, the Tuscarora begged for sanctuary in Pennsylvania. The speakers for the tribe talked of women and children unable to gather food and play in the forest for fear of being captured. They talked of not being able to hunt freely to support their families. They talked, above all, of a desire for peace between the settlers and themselves, even if it required leaving their homelands. However, the governor of Pennsylvania was reluctant to give them sanctuary. Among other issues, the governor feared an alliance between the Tuscarora and the Pennsylvania Iroquois. He feared increasing the Native American presence in Pennsylvania would upset the settlers already there. Ultimately, the Tuscarora had to make the best of their hard life in North Carolina. The harassment from settlers did not stop, and in 1711, war broke out between the settlers and the Tuscarora.Which of the following represents the most likely view European settlers had of the events leading up to the Tuscarora War?A. "The natives were peaceful so we should not exploit them, enslave them, and take their land."B. "The natives gave us many chances to find a peaceful solution and we just would not listen."C. "The natives were not legal owners of the land and we were justified in our treatment of them."D.
