A cash prize is randomly placed into certain cereal boxes that sell for $5. A $1 prize is placed in 10% of cereal boxes, a $5 prize is placed in 5% of cereal boxes, while 10% of boxes receive a $20 prize. The other boxes do not receive any cash prizes. What is the expected value of the cash prizes if you include the cost of purchasing the cereal in your calculations?
Answer:
-2.65 usd
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Note that 10%= probability 0.1 5%= 0.05 .
Lets find the average prize value :
1 usd *P(1 uzd)+5usd *P(5usd)+20,usd*P(20usd)=
= 1*0.1+5*0.05+20*0.1=2.35 USD is a value average prize brutto.
However for 1 turn the player has to pay 5 USD.
That means the net value is 2.35-5=-2.65 USD
Actually it means that every turn the player loses 2.65 USD averagly.

Factor the expression x2 − 5x − 24. A. (x − 4)(x + 6) B. (x − 3)(x + 8) C. (x + 3)(x − 8) D. (x + 4)(x − 6)
Answer:
C. (x + 3)(x − 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
We need two numbers that add to -5 and multiply to -24.
They are -8 and 3 since -8 + 3 = -5, and -8 * 3 = -24.
x^2 - 5x - 24 = (x - 8)(x + 3)
Lisa drew three circles to form a figure. The areas of the circles were in the
ratio 1:4:16. She then shaded some parts of the figure as shown.
What fraction of the figure was shaded?
Answer:
Fraction of the figure shaded = [tex]\frac{13}{16}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Ratio of the areas of the given circles are 1 : 4 : 16
Then the radii of the circles will be in the ratio = [tex]\sqrt{1}:\sqrt{4}:\sqrt{16}[/tex]
= 1 : 2 : 4
If the radius of the smallest circle = x units
Then the radius of the middle circle = 2x units
and the radius of the largest circle = 4x units
Area of the smallest circle = πx²
Area of the middle circle = π(2x)² = 4πx²
Area of the largest circle = π(4x)²= 16πx²
Area of the region which is not shaded in the middle circle = πx²(4 - 1)
= 3πx²
Therefore, area of the shaded region = Area of the largest circle - Area of the region which is not shaded
= 16πx² - 3πx²
= 13πx²
Fraction of the figure which is not shaded = [tex]\frac{\text{Area of the shaded region}}{\text{Area of the largest circle}}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{13\pi x^{2} }{16\pi x^{2} }[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{13}{16}[/tex]

A study of the use of social media asked a sample of 488 American adults under the age of 40 and a sample of 421 American adults aged 40 or over about their use of social media. Based on their answers, each subject was assigned a social media usage score on a scale of 0 to 25. Higher scores indicate greater usage. The subjects were chosen at random. Are the conditions for two-sample t inference satisfied?
a. Maybe: the SRS condition is OK but we need to look at the data to check Normality
b. No: scores in a range between 0 and 25 cant be Normal
c. Yes: the STS condition is OK and large sample sized makes the Normality condition unnecessary.
Answer:
a
Step-by-step explanation:
Maybe: the SRS condition is OK but we need to look at the data to check Normality.
The normality inference is important in that the null compares the difference in the sample means to the difference that one would expect by random variation, or by chance, alone meaning that the sample is assumed to have being from a normal distribution with a mean and standards deviation.

An electronics company just finished designing a new tablet computer and is interested in estimating its battery-life. A random sample of 20 laptops with a full charge was tested and the battery-life was found to be approximately normal with a mean of 6 hours and a sample standard deviation of 1.5 hours. Which of the following is the correct form for a 99% confidence interval?
a) .99( ) 6 2.576(0.3354) CI
b) .99( ) 6 2.576(1.5) CI
c) .99( ) 6 2.861(0.3354)CI
d) .99( ) 6 2.861(1.5) CI
Answer:
[tex]6 \pm 2.861(0.3354)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, so we use the t-distribution to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 20 - 1 = 19
99% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 19 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.995[/tex]. So we have T = 2.861.
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.861\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{20}} = 2.861(0.3354)[/tex]
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
The format of the confidence interval is:
[tex]S_{M} \pm M[/tex]
In which [tex]S_{M}[/tex] is the sample mean
So
[tex]6 \pm 2.861(0.3354)[/tex]
Bill and Ben each have three cards numbered 4,5,6 they each take one of their own cards then they add the two numbers on the cards what is the probability that their answer is an odd number. What is the probability that their answer is a number less than 11.
Answer:
P(odd) = 4/9P(<11) = 2/3Step-by-step explanation:
There are 9 possible outcomes for (Bill, Ben)'s cards:
(4, 4) total 8; (4, 5) total 9; (4, 6) total 10;
(5, 4) total 9; (5, 5) total 10; (5, 6) total 11;
(6, 4) total 10; (6, 5) total 11; (6, 6) total 12.
Of these 9 outcomes, 4 have an odd total; 6 are less than 11.
P(odd) = 4/9
P(sum < 11) = 2/3
Dr. Pagels is a mammalogist who studies meadow and common voles. He frequently traps the moles and has noticed what appears to be a preference for a peanut butter-oatmeal mixture by the meadow voles vs apple slices are usually used in traps, where the common voles seem to prefer the apple slices. So he conducted a study where he used a peanut butter-oatmeal mixture in half the traps and the normal apple slices in his remaining traps to see if there was a food preference between the two different voles.
Indicate which of the following is the null hypothesis, and which is the alternate hypothesis.
There food preferences among vole species are independent of one another. _____
There is a relationship between voles and food preference. ______
To test for independence, we need to calculate the Chi-square statistic.
These are the data that Dr. Pagels collected:
meadow voles common voles
apple slices 26 32
peanut butter-oatmeal 35 25
When transferring your answers, make sure you carry them out to AT LEAST SIX SIGNIFICANT FIGURES unless otherwise stated.
_____= expected meadow vole/apple slices
_____= expected common vole/apple slices
_____= expected meadow vole/peanut butter-oatmeal
_____= expected common vole/peanut butter-oatmeal
_____= chi-square value
_____= degrees of freedom (whole number only)
_____= using Statistical Table A (pg 704 of your textbook), what is the chi-square critical value with significance level of alpha=0.05?
_____= will you reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis? (answer either reject or fail to reject)
Answer:
Null hypothesis = H₀ = There food preferences among vole species are independent of one another.
Alternate hypothesis = H₁ = There is a relationship between voles and food preference.
Expected meadow vole/apple slices = 29.983051
Expected common vole/apple slices = 28.016949
Expected meadow vole/peanut butter-oatmeal = 31.016949
Expected common vole/peanut butter-oatmeal = 28.983051
Chi-square value = χ² = 2.154239
Degree of freedom = 1
Critical value = 3.841
χ² < Critical value
We failed to reject H₀
We do not have significant evidence at the given significance level to show that there is a relationship between voles and food preference.
Step-by-step explanation:
He frequently traps the moles and has noticed what appears to be a preference for a peanut butter-oatmeal mixture by the meadow voles vs apple slices are usually used in traps, where the common voles seem to prefer the apple slices.
So he conducted a study where he used a peanut butter-oatmeal mixture in half the traps and the normal apple slices in his remaining traps to see if there was a food preference between the two different voles.
Null hypothesis = H₀ = There food preferences among vole species are independent of one another.
Alternate hypothesis = H₁ = There is a relationship between voles and food preference.
Data collected by Dr. Pagels:
meadow voles common voles Row Total
apple slices 26 32 58
peanut butter-oatmeal 35 25 60
Column Total 61 57 118
Where 118 is the grand total.
The expected number is given by
Expected = (row total)×(column total)/grand total
Expected meadow vole/apple slices = 58×61/118
Expected meadow vole/apple slices = 29.983051
Expected common vole/apple slices = 58×57/118
Expected common vole/apple slices = 28.016949
Expected meadow vole/peanut butter-oatmeal = 60×61/118
Expected meadow vole/peanut butter-oatmeal = 31.016949
Expected common vole/peanut butter-oatmeal = 60×57/118
Expected common vole/peanut butter-oatmeal = 28.983051
The chi-square statistic value is given by
χ² = Σ(Observed - Expected)²/Expected
χ² = (26 - 29.983051)²/29.983051 + (32 - 28.016949)²/28.016949 + (35 - 31.016949)²/31.016949 + (25 - 28.983051)²/28.983051
χ² = 2.154239
The degrees of freedom is given by
DoF = (row - 1)×(col - 1)
For the given case, we have 2 rows and 2 columns
DoF = (2 - 1)×(2 - 1)
DoF = 1
The given level of significance = 0.05
The critical value from the chi-square table at α = 0.05 and DoF = 1 is found to be
Critical value = 3.841
Conclusion:
Reject H₀ If χ² > Critical value
We reject the Null hypothesis If the calculated chi-square value is more than the critical value.
For the given case,
χ² < Critical value
We failed to reject H₀
We do not have significant evidence at the given significance level to show that there is a relationship between voles and food preference.
make h the subject of the formula A=(1/2)ah-(1/2)bh
Answer:
h = A ÷ ½(a - b)
Step-by-step explanation:
A = ½ah - ½bh
A = ½h( a - b)
Divide both sides by the coefficients of h
A ÷ ½(a - b) = h
The mean water temperature downstream from a power plant cooling tower discharge pipe should be no more than 100 degrees F. Past experience has indicated that the standard deviation of temperature is 2 degrees F. The water temperature is measured on nine randomly chosen days, and the average temperature is found to be 98 degrees F.
A) Is there evidence that the water temperature is acceptable at α = 0.05?
B) What is the P-value for this test?
C) What is the probability of accepting the null hypothesis at α = 0.05 if the water has a true mean temperature of 104 degrees F?
Answer:
A) Yes. At a significance level of 0.05, there is enough evidence to support the claim that the mean water temperature is significantly below 100 °F.
B) P-value = 0.001
C) The probability of not rejecting the null hypothesis at α = 0.05 if the true mean is 104 °F is P(M>98.9)=1. This means that is almost impossible to reject the null hypothesis μ≤100 given that the true mean is 104.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a hypothesis test for the population mean.
The claim is that the mean water temperature is significantly below 100 °F.
Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:
[tex]H_0: \mu=100\\\\H_a:\mu< 100[/tex]
The significance level is 0.05.
The sample has a size n=9.
The sample mean is M=98.
The standard deviation of the population is known and has a value of σ=2.
We can calculate the standard error as:
[tex]\sigma_M=\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{9}}=0.667[/tex]
Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:
[tex]z=\dfrac{M-\mu}{\sigma_M}=\dfrac{98-100}{0.667}=\dfrac{-2}{0.667}=-3[/tex]
This test is a left-tailed test, so the P-value for this test is calculated as:
[tex]\text{P-value}=P(z<-3)=0.001[/tex]
As the P-value (0.001) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the effect is significant.
The null hypothesis is rejected.
At a significance level of 0.05, there is enough evidence to support the claim that the mean water temperature is significantly below 100 °F.
The critical value for this left-tailed test is zc=-1.645.
The null hypothesis would be accepted if the test statistic is higher than zc=-1.645. For a normal distribution with the parameters of the null hypothesis (μ=100, σ=2), this would correspond to a value of:
[tex]X=\mu+z\sigma/\sqrt{n}=100+(-1.645)\cdot 2/\sqrt{9}=100-1.1=98.9[/tex]
This means that if we get a sample of size n=9 and mean bigger than 98.9, we will failed to reject the null hypothesis.
If the true mean is 104 °F, the probability of getting a sample mean over 98.9 for this sample size can be calculated as:
[tex]z=\dfrac{M-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{98.9-104}{2/\sqrt{9}}=\dfrac{-5.1}{0.6667}=-7.65\\\\\\P(M>98.9)=P(z>-7.65)=1[/tex]
The probability of not rejecting the null hypothesis at α = 0.05 if the true mean is 104 °F is P(M>98.9)=1. This means that is almost impossible to reject the null hypothesis μ≤100 given that the true mean is 104.

The graph of f(x) = x2 is shifted 3 units to the left to obtain the graph of g(x). Which of the following equations best describes g(x)?
g(x) = (x + 3)2
g(x) = x2 − 3
g(x) = x2 + 3
g(x) = (x − 3)2
Answer:
g(x) = (x + 3)^2
Step-by-step explanation:
When a function is shifted to the left or right we can think of a change of units, like a new independent variable is used.
If we have a quadratic function
[tex]f(x)=x^2[/tex]
and the graph is shifted 3 units to the left, then we can think of a new unit u that is:
[tex]g(x)=u^2[/tex]
The vertix of this parabola, that happens for u=0, happens for x=-3, as the graph is shifted 3 units to the left.
Then, the relation between u and x is:
[tex]u-x=0-(-3)=3\\\\u=x+3[/tex]
We can use this relation in the new graph and replace u as:
[tex]g(x)=(x+3)^2[/tex]
Answer:
g(x) = (x + 3)^2

In 1994 the city of Anoka had a population of 18,000 people. Since then the population has grown by 5.2% each year. In 1994 the city of Minneapolis had a population of 390,000 and has been decreasing by 2.3% each year. How many more people will be living in Minneapolis compared to Anoka after 25 years?
Answer:
After 25 years, Minneapolis will have 154,062 more residents than Anoka.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's write a function for each case.
For Anoka, the initial population is 18,000. The population grows 5.2% or 0.052 each year. Thus:
[tex]A(x)=18000(1.052)^x[/tex], where x represents the amount of years after 1994.
Inversely, for Minneapolis, the population decreases by 2.3% or 0.023. Another way to write this is that it in changes by 1-0.023 or .977 or 97.7%. Thus:
[tex]M(x)=390000(0.977)^x[/tex].
To find how many more people are living in Minneapolis than Anoka after 25 years, simply plug 25 into the functions and then subtract.
In Anoka, after 25 years, there will be:
[tex]A(25)=18000(1.052)^{25}\approx 63924[/tex] residents.
In Minneapolis, after 25 years, there will be:
[tex]M(25)=390000(.977)^{25}\approx217986[/tex] residents.
217986-63924=154,062 residents.

From 1960 to 2010, a certain money stock measure was growing at the rate of approximately 43e(1/2)x billion dollars per decade, where x is the number of decades since 1950. Find the total increase in the money stock measure from 1960 to 2010. (Round your answer to the nearest billion dollars.)
Answer:
1222 billion dollars.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the total increase from 1960 to 2010, we need to find the growth of each decade and sum them all:
In the period 1960-1970, we have x = 1, and the growth is:
[tex]y(1) = 43e(1/2) = 70.895[/tex]
In the period 1970-1980, we have x = 2, and the growth is:
[tex]y(2) = 43e(2/2) = 116.8861[/tex]
The growth in the following 3 periods are:
[tex]y(3) = 43e(3/2) =192.7126[/tex]
[tex]y(4) = 43e(4/2) = 317.7294[/tex]
[tex]y(5) = 43e(5/2) =523.8472[/tex]
So the total growth in the period 1960 - 2010 is:
[tex]Total = y(1) + y(2) + y(3) + y(4) + y(5)[/tex]
[tex]Total = 70.895 + 116.8861+192.726+317.7294+523.8472[/tex]
[tex]Total = 1222.08\ billion\ dollars[/tex]
Rounding to the nearest billion dollars, we have a total of 1222 billion dollars.
Please help The answer is 0.8284 unit2.
Answer: 0.8284 units²
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area between curves, we need to use the integral. We can see that both sides of the shaded region are equal to each other. Therefore, we can find the area of one shaded part and multiply it by 2 for the 2 shaded regions. For the integral, we can find the area of the shaded region on the left side, on the interval from 0 to π/4.
Now that we know the integral, we can figure out the function. We do this by subtracting the top curve by the bottom curve. The top curve on the left shaded region, is y=cosx. The bottom curve on the shaded region is y=sinx. Therefore, we will subtract cosx-sinx.
[tex]2\int\limits^\frac{\pi }{4} _0 {cosx-sinx} \, dx[/tex]
Now that we have the integral, we can solve by splitting the integral into 2 separate integrals by the Sum Rule. Let's disregard the multiply by 2 for now, but we will make sure to multiply by 2 at the end.
[tex]\int\limits^\frac{\pi }{4} _0 {cosx} \, dx -\int\limits^\frac{\pi }{4} _0 {sinx} \, dx[/tex]
Now, we can solve each integral separately.
[tex]\int\limits^\frac{\pi }{4} _0 {cosx} \, dx =sinx]^\pi^ /^40[/tex]
*Note: The 0 is at the base of the bracket. I can't find a way to do it in the equation editor, but know that it's there.
[tex]sin(\frac{\pi }{4} )-sin(0)=\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} -0=\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}[/tex]
Now, we can find the integral of sinx.
[tex]\int\limits^\frac{\pi }{4} _0 {sinx} \, dx=-cos]^\pi ^/^40[/tex]
*Note: The 0 is at the base of the bracket. I can't find a way to do it in the equation editor, but know that it's there.
[tex]-cos(\frac{\pi }{4} )-(-cos(0))=-\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} -(-1)=-\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} +1[/tex]
Now that we have the integral of each integral, we can subtract them, and multiply by 2.
[tex]\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} -(-\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} +1)=\sqrt{2}+1[/tex]
[tex]2(\sqrt{2} +1)=0.8284 units^2[/tex]

-150° is found at the third quadrant so the cost value at third quadrant is negative
Cos(-150°)= -cos(30)=-cos(210)
Cos(-150°)=- (√3/2)
Cos(-150°)=-√3/2

If the measure of angle 2 is (5 x + 14) degrees and angle 3 is (7 x minus 14) degrees, what is the measure of angle 1 in degrees? 2 lines intersect to form 4 angles. From top left, clockwise, the angles are 1, 2, 3, 4. 88 degrees 89 degrees 90 degrees 91 degrees
Answer:
m∠1 = 91°
Step-by-step explanation:
Since ∠2 and ∠3 are Supplementary Angles, to find x:
5x + 14 + 7x - 14 = 180
12x = 180
x = 15
Now we plug in x as 15 in to find m∠2:
m∠2 = 5(15) + 14
m∠2 = 75 + 14
m∠2 = 89
Since ∠1 and ∠2 are also supplementary, to find m∠1, we simply subtract 180°:
m∠1 = 180 - m∠2
m∠1 = 180 - 89
m∠1 = 91°
