Answer:
-The independent variable is whether the motivational signs were posted, and the dependent variable is the amount of use of the stairs.
-Nominal scale.
Step-by-step explanation:
Independent variable: In research methods, the term "independent variable" is described as the variable that is being altered, manipulated, or changed by an investigator to see its effects on the dependent variable in specific research or experiment.
Dependent variable: In research methods, the term "dependent variable" is described as the variable that is being measured, analysed, or tested in an experiment by the experimenter or researcher. The dependent variable is being directly affected by the independent variable.
Nominal scale: In research methods, the term "nominal scale" is determined as one the different measurement scales in which a specific number is being served as labels or tags only and to classify and identify an object.
A trailer in the shape of a rectangular prism has a volume of 3,816 cubic feet. The length of the trailer is 11 feet less than 8 times the width w, and the height is 1 foot more than the width. Please help right away! Thank you so much!
Answer:
Width = 8 ft
Length = 53 ft
Height = 9 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let width be x
Length will be 8x-11
Height will be x + 1
Volume = width x height x length
=
x * (8x-11) * (x+1) = 3816
(8x^2 - 11x) * (x+1) = 3816
8x^3 + 8x^2 - 11x^2 - 11x = 3816
8x^3 -3x^2 - 11x = 3816
8x^3+64x^2-61x^2-488x +477x-3816= 0
8x^2 (x-8)+61x(x-8)+488(x-8)
(x-8)(8x^2 + 61x + 477) = 0
x-8
8x^2 + 61x + 477 = 0
Solve the equations:
x = 8
Length = 8x -11 = 64-11 = 53
Height = 8+1 = 9
Answer:
8w^3-3w^2-11w=3816
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the equation, in terms of w, that could be used to find the dimensions of the trailer in feet. Your answer should be in the form of a polynomial equals a constant.
Logs are stacked in a pile. The bottom row has 50 logs and next to bottom row has 49 logs. Each row has one less log than the row below it. How many logs will be there in 5th row? Use the recursive formula.
Answer:
46 logs on the 5th row.
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of logs on the nth row is
n = 50 - (n-1)
n = 51 - n (so on the first row we have 51 - 1 = 50 logs).
So on the 5th row we have 51 - 5 = 46 logs.
The given relation is an arithmetic progression, which can be solved using the recursive formula: aₙ = aₙ₋₁ + d.
The 5th row has 46 logs.
What is an arithmetic progression?An arithmetic progression is a special series in which every number is the sum of a fixed number, called the constant difference, and the first term.
The first term of the arithmetic progression is taken as a₁.
The constant difference is taken as d.
The n-th term of an arithmetic progression is found using the explicit formula:
aₙ = a₁ + (n - 1)d.
The recursive formula of an arithmetic progression is:
aₙ = aₙ₋₁ + d.
How to solve the question?In the question, we are informed that logs are stacked in a pile. The bottom row has 50 logs and the next bottom row has 49 logs. Each row has one less log than the row below it.
The number of rows represents an arithmetic progression, with the first term being the row in the bottom row having 50 logs, that is, a₁ = 50, and the constant difference, d = -1.
We are instructed to use the recursive formula. We know the recursive formula of an arithmetic progression is, aₙ = aₙ₋₁ + d.
a₁ = 50.
a₂ = a₁ + d = 50 + (-1) = 49.
a₃ = a₂ + d = 49 + (-1) = 48.
a₄ = a₃ + d = 48 + (-1) = 47.
a₅ = a₄ + d = 47 + (-1) = 46.
Hence, the 5th row will have 46 logs.

Find the indicated conditional probability
using the following two-way table:
P( Drive to school | Sophomore ) = [?]
Round to the nearest hundredth.
Answer:
0.07
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of sophmores is 2+25+3 = 30.
Of these sophmores, 2 drive to school.
So the probability that a student drives to school, given that they are a sophmore, is 2/30, or approximately 0.07.
Answer:
[tex]\large \boxed{0.07}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The usual question is, "What is the probability of A, given B?"
They are asking, "What is the probability that you are driving to school if you are a sophomore (rather than taking the bus or walking)?"
We must first complete your frequency table by calculating the totals for each row and column.
The table shows that there are 30 students, two of whom drive to school.
[tex]P = \dfrac{2}{30}= \mathbf{0.07}\\\\\text{The conditional probability is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{0.07}}$}[/tex]
Suppose the sequence StartSet a Subscript n Baseline EndSet is defined by the recurrence relation a Subscript n plus 1equalsnegative 2na Subscript n, for nequals1, 2, 3,..., where a1equals5. Write out the first five terms of the sequence.
Answer:
-10, 40, -240, 1,920 and -19, 200
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the recurrence relation of the sequence defined as aₙ₊₁ = -2naₙ for n = 1, 2, 3... where a₁ = 5, to get the first five terms of the sequence, we will find the values for when n = 1 to n =5.
when n= 1;
aₙ₊₁ = -2naₙ
a₁₊₁ = -2(1)a₁
a₂ = -2(1)(5)
a₂ = -10
when n = 2;
a₂₊₁ = -2(2)a₂
a₃ = -2(2)(-10)
a₃ = 40
when n = 3;
a₃₊₁ = -2(3)a₃
a₄ = -2(3)(40)
a₄ = -240
when n= 4;
a₄₊₁ = -2(4)a₄
a₅ = -2(4)(-240)
a₅ = 1,920
when n = 5;
a₅₊₁ = -2(5)a₅
a₆ = -2(5)(1920)
a₆ = -19,200
Hence, the first five terms of the sequence is -10, 40, -240, 1,920 and -19, 200

You want to obtain a sample to estimate a population mean. Based on previous evidence, you believe the population standard deviation is approximately σ = 58.2 σ=58.2. You would like to be 99% confident that your estimate is within 1 of the true population mean. How large of a sample size is required? Do not round mid-calculation.
Answer:
[tex]n=(\frac{2.58(58.2)}{1})^2 =22546.82 \approx 22547[/tex]
So the answer for this case would be n=22547 rounded up to the nearest integer
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define some notation
[tex]\bar X[/tex] represent the sample mean
[tex]\mu[/tex] population mean (variable of interest)
[tex]\sigma=58.2[/tex] represent the population standard deviation
n represent the sample size
[tex] ME =1[/tex] represent the margin of error desire
The margin of error is given by this formula:
[tex] ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex] (a)
And on this case we have that ME =+1 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:
[tex]n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2[/tex] (b)
The critical value for 99% of confidence interval now can be founded using the normal distribution. The significance would be [tex]\alpha=0.01[/tex] and the critical value [tex]z_{\alpha/2}=2.58[/tex], replacing into formula (b) we got:
[tex]n=(\frac{2.58(58.2)}{1})^2 =22546.82 \approx 22547[/tex]
So the answer for this case would be n=22547 rounded up to the nearest integer

Tension needs to eat at least an extra 1,000 calories a day to prepare for running a marathon. He has only $25 to spend on the extra food he needs and will spend it on $0.75 donuts that have 360 calories each and $2 energy drinks that have 110 calories. This results in the following system of equations:
0.75d+2e≤25
360d+110e≥1,000
where d is donuts and e is energy drinks. Can Tension buy 8 donuts and 4 energy drinks?
Select the correct answer below:
Yes or No
Answer:
Yes, he can buy 8 donuts and 4 energy drinks.
Step-by-step explanation:
If Tension is able to buy 8 donuts and 4 energy drinks, then both inequalities would be valid when we use these numbers as inputs. Let's check each expression at a time:
[tex]0.75*d + 2*e \leq 25\\0.75*8 + 2*4 \leq 25\\6 + 8 \leq 25\\14 \leq 25[/tex]
The first one is valid, since 14 is less than 25. Let's check the second one.
[tex]360*d + 110*e \geq 1000\\360*8 + 110*4 \geq 1000\\2880 + 440 \geq 1000\\3320 \geq 1000[/tex]
The second one is also valid.
Since both expressions are valid, Tension can buy 8 donuts and 4 energy drinks and achieve his goal of having a caloric surplus of at least 1000 cal.
Betty has several of the standard six-sided dice that are common in many board games. If Betty rolls one of these dice, what is the probability that: She rolls a three. (enter the answer as a percent rounded to the nearest tenth as needed)
Answer:
16.7%
Step-by-step explanation:
Each of the six faces of a six-faced die shows one of the numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.
A roll of a die is equally likely to land on any face, so the total number of possible outputs is 6, corresponding to the number of faces on the die.
The desired outcome here is 3, meaning the face that shows the number 3. Only one face has the number 3, so the number of desired outcomes is 1.
p(event) = (number of desired outcomes)/(total number of possible outcomes)
p(3) = 1/6 = 0.16666... = 16.7%

CHECK THE ATTACHMENT FOR COMPLETE QUESTION
Answer:
We can show that ΔABC is congruent to ΔA'B'C' by a translation of 2 unit(s) Left and a Reflection across the x axis.
Step-by-step explanation:
We were given triangles ABC and A'B'C' of which were told are congruents,
Now we can provide the coordinates of A and A' from the given triangles ΔABC and ΔA'B'C' ,if we choose a point of A from ΔABC and A' from ΔA'B'C' we have these coordinates;
A as (8,8) and A' (6,-8) from the two triangles.
If we shift A to A' , we have (8_6) = 2 unit for that of x- axis
If we try the shift on the y-coordinates we will see that there is no translation.
Hence, the only translation that take place is of 2 units left.
It can also be deducted that there is a reflection
by x-axis to form A'B'C' by the ΔABC.

PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!! Consider what would happen if you were to slice a face at a vertex (cut a corner) of a particular polyhedron. You would see a new polygonal face where the old vertex used to be. What type of polygon would a slice of a cube at a vertex create? Explain how you know.
Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 3 edges and 3 faces projecting out from a vertex of a cube.
So the polygon produced would be a triangle.
Answer:
A triangle.
Step-by-step explanation:
As shown above, the plane which slices a corner intersects the polyhedron in [tex] n [/tex] faces which depend on the particular polyhedron.
Here it is a cube, and it intersects three faces. Since the intersection of two planes is a line and there are three planes to intersect with, there are three sides of the polygon.
Hence the polygon is a triangle.

Answer:
-1/3 (given that the first co-ordinate is the initial point)
Step-by-step explanation:
slope of a line is basically the change in y divided by the change in x.
we have the 2 co-ordinates (7,-1) , (6,-4)
lets find the change in x = 7 - 6 (the difference of the x - values of both the coordinates)
change in y = -1 - (-4)
change in x = -1
change in y = 3
now, slope is change in y / change in x
slope = -1/3

The area of a rectangular horse pasture is 268,500 square yards. The length of the pasture is 5 yards less than three times the width. What is the width of the pasture in yards? Do not include units in your answer. Please help right away! Thank you very much!
Answer: width = 300
Step-by-step explanation:
Area (A) = Length (L) x width (w)
Given: A = 268,500
L = 3w - 5
w = w
268,500 = (3w - 5) x (w)
268,500 = 3w² - 5w
0 = 3w² - 5w - 268,500
0 = (3w + 895) (w - 300)
0 = 3w + 895 0 = w - 300
-985/3 = w 300 = w
Since width cannot be negative, disregard w = -985/3
So the only valid answer is: w = 300
