Answer:
1140 ways.
Step-by-step explanation:
The applicable formula is: (n +r - 1)C(r-1), where n is the number of identical items (the candies), and r is the possible number of recipients (the kids).
The 17 identical candies, can be distributed among the 4 children in :
=(17 + 4 - 1)C(4–1) = 20C3 ways.
= 20!/((20–3)!*3!) ways.
= 20*19*18*17!/(17!*(3*2*1)) = 20*19*18/6 ways
= 20*19*3 ways.
=1140 ways.
Assume that the random variable X is normally distributed, with mean 60 and standard deviation 16. Compute the probability P(X < 80). Group of answer choices
Answer:
P(X < 80) = 0.89435.
Step-by-step explanation:
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.
In this question, we have that:
[tex]\mu = 60, \sigma = 16[/tex]
P(X < 80)
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 80. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{80 - 60}{16}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.25[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.25[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.89435.
So
P(X < 80) = 0.89435.

11. If 4 < x < 14, what is the range for -x - 4?
Answer:
-18 < -x-4 < -8
Step-by-step explanation:
We start with the initial range as:
4 < x < 14
we multiplicate the inequation by -1, as:
-4 > -x > -14
if we multiply by a negative number, we need to change the symbols < to >.
Then, we sum the number -4, as:
-4-4> -x-4 > -14-4
-8 > -x-4 > -18
Finally, the range for -x-4 is:
-18 < -x-4 < -8

How much do you need in your account at the beginning b. How much total money will you pull out of the account? c. How much of that money is interest?
Answer:
starting balance: $636,215.95total withdrawals: $1,200,000interest withdrawn: $563,784.05Step-by-step explanation:
a) If we assume the annual withdrawals are at the beginning of the year, we can use the formula for an annuity due to compute the necessary savings.
The principal P that must be invested at rate r for n annual withdrawals of amount A is ...
P = A(1+r)(1 -(1 +r)^-n)/r
P = $60,000(1.08)(1 -1.08^-20)/0.08 = $636,215.95
__
b) 20 withdrawals of $60,000 each total ...
20×$60,000 = $1,200,000
__
c) The excess over the amount deposited is interest:
$1,200,000 -636,215.95 = $563,784.05

The Ball Corporation's beverage can manufacturing plant in Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin, uses a metal supplier that provides metal with a known thickness standard deviation σ = .000586 mm. Assume a random sample of 59 sheets of metal resulted in an x¯ = .2905 mm. Calculate the 95 percent confidence interval for the true mean metal thickness.
Answer:
The 95 percent confidence interval for the true mean metal thickness is between 0.2903 mm and 0.2907 mm
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:
[tex]\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]
Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex].
So it is z with a pvalue of [tex]1-0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]z = 1.96[/tex]
Now, find the margin of error M as such
[tex]M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
[tex]M = 1.96\frac{0.000586}{\sqrt{59}} = 0.0002[/tex]
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 0.2905 - 0.0002 = 0.2903 mm
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 0.2905 + 0.0002 = 0.2907 mm
The 95 percent confidence interval for the true mean metal thickness is between 0.2903 mm and 0.2907 mm

Step-by-step explanation:
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].

b. What is the monthly surplus created in the wholesale butter market due to the price support (price floor) program? 22 million pounds 79 million pounds Zero 11 million pounds Suppose that a decrease in the cost of feeding cows shifts the supply schedule to the right by 40 million pounds at every price.
Answer:
a. In the butter market, the monthly equilibrium quantity is 95 million pounds and the equilibrium price is $1.2 per pound.
b. The correct option is zero.
c. See the attached excel file for the new supply schedule.
d. The monthly surplus created by the price support program is 18 million pounds given the new supply of butter.
Step-by-step explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. A complete question is therefore provided in the attached Microsoft word file.
a. In the butter market, the monthly equilibrium quantity is million pounds and the equilibrium price is $ per pound.
At equilibrium, quantity demanded must be equal with the quantity supplied.
In this question, equilibrium occurs at the price of $1.20 per pound and quantity of 95 million pounds.
Therefore, in the butter market, the monthly equilibrium quantity is 95 million pounds and the equilibrium price is $1.2 per pound.
b. What is the monthly surplus created in the wholesale butter market due to the price support (price floor) program?
Price floor refers to a government price control on the lowest price that can be charged for a commodity.
It should be noted that for a price floor to be binding, it has to be fixed above the equilibrium price.
Since the price floor of $1 per pound is lower than the equilibrium price of $1.2 per pound, the price floor will therefore not be binding. As a result, the market will still be at the equilibrium point and the monthly surplus created in the wholesale butter market due to the price support (price floor) program will be zero.
Therefore, the correct option is zero.
c. Fill in the new supply schedule given the change in the cost of feeding cows.
Since a decrease in the cost of feeding cows shifts the supply schedule to the right by 40 million pounds at every price, this implies that there will be an increase in supply by 40 million at each price.
Note: Find attached the excel file for the new supply schedule.
d. Given the new supply of butter, what is the monthly surplus of butter created by the price support program?
Since the price floor has been fixed at $1 per pound by the price support program, we can observe that the quantity demanded is 101 million pounds and quantity supplied is 119 million pounds at this price floor of $1. The surplus created is then the difference between the quantity demanded and quantity supplied as follows:
Surplus created = Quantity supplied - Quantity demanded = 119 - 101 = 18 million pounds
Therefore, the monthly surplus created by the price support program is 18 million pounds given the new supply of butter.
A sample of 26 offshore oil workers took part in a simulated escape exercise, and their escape time (unit: second) were observed. The sample mean and sample standard deviation are 370.69 and 24.36, respectively. Suppose the investigators had believed a priori that true average escape time would be at most 6 minutes. Does the data contradict this prior belief? Assuming normality, test the appropriate hypotheses using the rejection region method at a significance level of 0.05.
Answer:
Yes, it contradict this prior belief as there is enough evidence to support the claim that the true average escape time is significantly higher than 6 minutes.
Test statistic t=2.238>tc=1.708.
The null hypothesis is rejected.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a hypothesis test for the population mean.
The claim is that the true average escape time is significantly higher than 6 minutes (360 seconds).
Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:
[tex]H_0: \mu=360\\\\H_a:\mu> 360[/tex]
The significance level is 0.05.
The sample has a size n=26.
The sample mean is M=370.69.
As the standard deviation of the population is not known, we estimate it with the sample standard deviation, that has a value of s=24.36.
The estimated standard error of the mean is computed using the formula:
[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{24.36}{\sqrt{26}}=4.777[/tex]
Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:
[tex]t=\dfrac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{370.69-360}{4.777}=\dfrac{10.69}{4.777}=2.238[/tex]
The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:
[tex]df=n-1=26-1=25[/tex]
The critical value for a right-tailed test with a significance level of 0.05 and 25 degrees of freedom is tc=1.708. If the test statistic is bigger than 1.708, it falls in the rejection region and the null hypothesis is rejected.
As the test statistic t=2.238 is bigger than the critical value t=1.708, the effect is significant. The null hypothesis is rejected.
There is enough evidence to support the claim that the true average escape time is significantly higher than 6 minutes (360 seconds).

The first card selected from a standard 52-card deck was a king. If it is returned to the deck, what is the probability that a king will be drawn on the second selection
Answer:
[tex]\frac{1}{13}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability P(A) that an event A will occur is given by;
P(A) = [tex]\frac{number-of-possible-outcomes-of-event-A}{total-number-of-sample-space}[/tex]
From the question,
=>The event A is selecting a king the second time from a 52-card deck.
=> In the card deck, there are 4 king cards. After the first selection which was a king, the king was returned. This makes the number of king cards return back to 4. Therefore,
number-of-possible-outcomes-of-event-A = 4
=> Since there are 52 cards in total,
total-number-of-sample-space = 52
Substitute these values into equation above;
P(Selecting a king the second time) = [tex]\frac{4}{52}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{13}[/tex]

We are standing on the top of a 320 foot tall building and launch a small object upward. The object's vertical altitude, measured in feet, after t seconds is h ( t ) = − 16 t 2 + 128 t + 320 . What is the highest altitude that the object reaches?
Answer:
The highest altitude that the object reaches is 576 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
The maximum altitude reached by the object can be found by using the first and second derivatives of the given function. (First and Second Derivative Tests). Let be [tex]h(t) = -16\cdot t^{2} + 128\cdot t + 320[/tex], the first and second derivatives are, respectively:
First Derivative
[tex]h'(t) = -32\cdot t +128[/tex]
Second Derivative
[tex]h''(t) = -32[/tex]
Then, the First and Second Derivative Test can be performed as follows. Let equalize the first derivative to zero and solve the resultant expression:
[tex]-32\cdot t +128 = 0[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{128}{32}\,s[/tex]
[tex]t = 4\,s[/tex] (Critical value)
The second derivative of the second-order polynomial presented above is a constant function and a negative number, which means that critical values leads to an absolute maximum, that is, the highest altitude reached by the object. Then, let is evaluate the function at the critical value:
[tex]h(4\,s) = -16\cdot (4\,s)^{2}+128\cdot (4\,s) +320[/tex]
[tex]h(4\,s) = 576\,ft[/tex]
The highest altitude that the object reaches is 576 feet.

(vi) For x = 7.01:
mPQ = (2/(6 - 7.01) - (-2)) / (7.01 - 7)
= 1.980198
(vii) For x = 7.001:
mPQ = (2/(6 - 7.001) - (-2)) / (7.001 - 7)
= 1.998002
(viii) For x = 7.0001:
mPQ = (2/(6 - 7.0001) - (-2)) / (7.0001 - 7)
= 1.999800
By observing the pattern in the calculated slopes, we can see that as x approaches 7, the slope of the secant line PQ approaches 2.
Using the point-slope form, we have:
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
Substituting the values of P(7, -2), we have:
y - (-2) = 2(x - 7)
y = 2x -16
Therefore, the equation of the tangent line to the curve at P(7, -2) is y = 2x -16.

a.) The perimeter of a rectangular field is 354 m. If the length of the field is 95m, what is its width? b.) The area of a rectangular painting is 8439 cm^2. If the width of the painting is 87cm, what is its length?
Answer:
a) 82
b) 97
Step-by-step explanation:
a) 354 - (95+95)
354 - 190
164
164 ÷ 2 = 82
(82+82+95+95=254)
b) 8439 cm^2 = 87x
8439 cm^2 ÷ 87 = 87x ÷ 87
97 = x
