Reducing scrap of 4-foot planks of hardwood is an important factor in reducing cost at a wood-floor manufacturing company. Accordingly, engineers at Lumberworks are investigating a potential new cutting method involving lateral sawing that may reduce the scrap rate. To examine its viability, two independent, random, representative samples of planks were examined. One sample contained 200 planks which were sawed using the old method. The other sample contained 400 planks which were sawed using the new method. Sixty-two of the 200 planks were scrapped under the old method of sawing, whereas 36 of the 400 planks were scrapped under the new method.

Required:
a. Construct the 90% confidence interval for the difference between the population scrap rates between the old and new methods, respectively.
b. Write the null and alternative hypotheses to test for differences in the population scrap rates between the old and new cutting methods, respectively.
c. Using the part a results, can we conclude at the 10% significance level that the scrap rate of the new method is different than the old method?

Answer:

x = 1, y = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have the two equations:

[tex]4x+3y=1[/tex] and [tex]-3x - 6y = 3[/tex], we can look at which variable will be easiest to eliminate.

[tex]y[/tex] looks like it might be easy to get rid of, we just have to multiply [tex]4x+3y=1[/tex]  by 2 and y is gone (as -6y + 6y = 0).

So let's multiply the equation [tex]4x+3y=1[/tex]  by 2.

[tex]2(4x + 3y = 1)\\8x + 6y = 2[/tex]

Now we can add these equations

[tex]8x + 6y = 2\\-3x-6y=3\\[/tex]

------------------------

[tex]5x = 5[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 5, we get [tex]x = 1[/tex].

Now we can substitute x into an equation to find y.

[tex]4(1) + 3y = 1\\4 + 3y = 1\\3y = -3\\y = -1[/tex]

C. 42 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a rectangle and to calculate the area of a rectangle we multiply length and width

The length of this rectangle is 7 units and the width is 6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

2., 3., 4., 5.

yes, you had the right idea to calculate the half distances between the coordinates. just create the absolute values of the full distance before cutting it in half.

you need to remember : we have to go this half distance from one point to the other (meaning adding our subtracting the half distance to/from the starting point).

2.

(-4, 6) to (10, -10)

in x the distance is 10 - -4 = 14. half is 7.

in y the distance is |-10 - 6| = |-16| = 16. half is 8.

so the midpoint is

(-4 + 7, 6 - 8) = (3, -2)

remember, to go the half distance in the direction towards the second point (so we have to choose properly, when to use "+" and "-" depending on the change of the coordinate : from -4 to 10 we have to add, from 6 to -10 we have to subtract, of course).

3.

(-3, -8) to (-6.5, -4.5)

in x distance : -3 - -6.5 = 3.5. half is 1.75

in y distance : -8 - -4.5 = |-3.5| = 3.5. half is 1.75

midpoint is

(-3 - 1.75, -8 + 1.75) = (-4.75, -6.25)

4.

(3, 7) to (-8, -10)

x : 3 - -8 = 11. half is 5.5

y : 7 - -10 = 17. half is 8.5

midpoint is

(3 - 5.5, 7 - 8.5) = (-2.5, -1.5)

5.

(-6, -13) to (-6.4, -3.8)

x : -6 - -6.4 = 0.4. half is 0.2

y : -13 - -3.8 = |-9.2| = 9.2. half is 4.6

midpoint is

(-6 - 0.2, -13 + 4.6) = (-6.2, -8.4)

6.

(-1, 7) to (5, 1)

x : -1 - 5 = |-6| = 6. 1/3 is 2.

y : 7 - 1 = 6. 1/3 is 2.

1/3 from C to D

(-1 + 2, 7 - 2) = (1, 5)

7.

2/3 of the way from D to C is the same point as in 6. (1/3 from C to D).

again

(1, 5)

8.

2/3 of the way from C to D.

so, we need to double what we added in 6.

(-1 + 4, 7 - 4) = (3, 3)

9.

1/3 of the way from D to C is the same point as in 8. (2/3 of the way from C to D).

again

(3, 3)

10.

exactly. Pythagoras.

the square root of the sum of the squares of the coordinate differences.

distance = sqrt((x1 - x2)² + (y1 - y2)²)

11.

(6, 8) to (-1, 8)

distance = sqrt((6 - -1)² + (8 - 8)²) = sqrt(49) = 7

12.

(5, -6) to (5, 6)

sqrt((5-5)² + (-6-6)²) = sqrt(144) = 12

13.

(-2, 0) to (11, 0)

sqrt((-2 - 11)² + (0-0)²) = sqrt(169) = 13

14.

(1, -5) to (9, 1)

sqrt((1-9)² + (-5 - 1)²) = sqrt(64 + 36) = sqrt(100) = 10

15.

ST and MT are basically the same equation.

MT is half of ST.

ST equation based on 2 points :

y – yS={(yT – yS)/(xT – xS)}(x – xS)

M = (xS + (xT - xS)/2, yS +(yT - yS)/2)

so, let's put that into the general equation :

y - yM={(yT - yM)/(xT - xM)}(x - xM)

y - (yS +(yT - yS)/2) = {(yT - (yS +(yT - yS)/2))/(xT - (xS + (xT - xS)/2))}(x - (xS + (xT - xS)/2))

16.

the two corners farthest away are (5, 10) and (9, 6).

what distance from (0, 0) is now bigger ?

since it is (0, 0), we can skip the 0s and just sum up the squares of the coordinates.

5² + 10² = 125

9² + 6² = 117

so, the corner (5, 10) is the farthest away.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

3 pennies, 9 nickels, and 6 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

We have three conditions:

(1)         p +        n +        d = 18

(2) 0.01p + 0.05n + 0.10d = 1.08

(3)                                   d = 2p

Multiply (2) by 100 and rearrange (3) to get a standard array.

(4)      p +   n +     d =   18

(5)      p + 5n + 10d = 108

(6)  -2p          +     d =    0

Subtract (4) from (5). This gives

(4)      p +   n +   d =  18

(7)            4n + 9d = 90

(6)  -2p          +   d =   0

Multiply (4) by 2 and add to (6). This gives

(4) p +   n +    d =  18

(7)        4n + 9d = 90

(8)        2n + 3d = 36

Double (8) and subtract from (7). This gives

(4)      p +   n +   d = 18

(7)            4n + 9d = 90

(9)                    3d = 18

Divide (9) by 3. This gives

(10) d = 6

Substitute (10) into (7). This gives

4n + 9(6) = 90

4n +   54 = 90

4n           = 36

(11) n       =    9

Substitute (10) and (11) into (4). This gives

p + 9 + 6 = 18

p +      15 = 18

p              =  3

Sasha has 3 pennies, 9 nickels, and 6 dimes.

Answer:

  5i) f(x) = 3·13^x +5

  5ii) f(x) = -6·(1/2)^x +5

  6) f(x) = 3·8^x -1

  9a) (1, 0), (0, -3)

  9b) (2, 0), (0, 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

5. The horizontal asymptote is y = c. To meet the requirements of the problem, you must choose c=5 and any other (non-zero) numbers for 'a' and 'b'. (You probably want 'b' to be positive, so as to avoid complex numbers.)

i) f(x) = 3·13^x +5

ii) f(x) = -6·(1/2)^x +5

__

6. You already know c=-1, so put x=0 in the equation and solve for 'a'. As in problem 5, 'b' can be any positive value.

  f(0) = 2 = a·b^0 -1

  3 = a

One possible function is ...

  f(x) = 3·8^x -1

__

9. The x-intercept is the value of x that makes y=0. We can solve for the general case:

  0 = a·b^x +c

  -c = a·b^x

  -c/a = b^x

Taking logarithms, we have ...

  log(-c/a) = x·log(b)

  [tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{\log\left(-\dfrac{c}{a}\right)}{\log(b)}=\log_b\left(-\dfrac{c}{a}\right)[/tex]

Of course, the y-intercept is (a+c), since the b-factor is 1 when x=0.

a) x-intercept: log2(6/3) = log2(2) = 1, or point (1, 0)

   y-intercept: 3-6 = -3, or point (0, -3)

b) x-intercept: log3(9/1) = log3(3^2) = 2, or point (2, 0)

  y-intercept: -1 +9 = 8, or point (0, 8)

Additional comment

It is nice to be comfortable with logarithms. It can be helpful to remember that a logarithm is an exponent. Even so, you can solve the x-intercepts of problem 9 using the expression we had just before taking logarithms.

  a) 6/3 = 2^x   ⇒   2^1 = 2^x   ⇒   x=1

  b) -9/-1 = 3^x   ⇒   3^2 = 3^x   ⇒   x=2

Answer:

610805 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of grain in the silo will be calculated as equal to the volume of the cylinder formed by the silo

Height of the silo [tex]l[/tex] = 30 ft

radius of the silo r = 12 ft

volume of a cylinder = [tex]\pi r^{2} l[/tex]

substituting, we have

V = 3.142 x [tex]12^{2}[/tex] x 30 = 13573.44 cubic feet

We know that density ρ = weight/volume

density of the grains in the silo = 45 pound/cubic feet

therefore,

weight of grains = density x volume

weight of grains = 45 x 13573.44 = 610804.8 ≅ 610805 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

She had $155 dollars in the starting = +155

She withdrew $65.5 = -65.5

She withdrew another $23.25 = -23.25

She withdrew another $26.45 = -26.45

The deposited $165.3 = +165.3

The expression looks like:

155 + 165.3 - 65.5 - 23.25 - 26.45

We could simplify the expression:

155 + 165.3 - 65.5 - 23.25 - 26.45

=> 320.3 - 88.75 - 26.45

=> 320.3 -115.2

Answer:

[tex]\frac{784}{15} \pi[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given situation, the calculation of volume of the solid is shown below:-

Here we will consider the curves that is

[tex]x = 7y^2, x = 7[/tex]

Now, rotating the line for the line x which is equals to 7

[tex]7y^2 = 7\\\\y^2 = 1\\\\ y = \pm1[/tex]

So, the inner radio is

7 - 7 = 0

and the outer radius is

[tex]7y^2 - 7\\\\ = 7(y^2 - 1)[/tex]

Now, the area of cross section is

[tex]A(y) = \pi(7(y^2 - 1))^2\\\\ = 49\pi(y^4 - 2y^2 + 1)[/tex]

The volume is

[tex]V = \int\limits^1_{-1} A(y)dy[/tex]

now we will put the values into the above formula

[tex]= \int\limits^1_{-1} 49\pi(y^4 - 2y^2 + 1)dy\\\\ = 49\pi(\frac{y^5}{5} - \frac{2y^3}{3} + y)^{-1}\\\\ = 49\pi(\frac{1}{5} - \frac{2}{3} + 1 + \frac{1}{5} - \frac{2}{3} + 1)\\\\ = 49\pi(2 + \frac{2}{5} - \frac{4}{3} )\\\\ = 49\pi(\frac{30+6-20}{15} )\\\\ = \frac{49\pi}{15} (16)[/tex]

After solving the above equation we will get

[tex]= \frac{784}{15} \pi[/tex]

Answer:

a) 5[tex]cm^{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Bodies have three dimensions (width, height and depth). Measuring volume is calculating the number of cubic units that can fit inside.

When raising to 3, these dimensions are included and therefore  5[tex]cm^{3}[/tex] is a measure of volume.

Answer:

5cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume for a form will always be in cubic units.

Area of a shape will always be in squared units.

Length will not be in cubic or squared units.

Hence, the first option is a measure for volume.

The second option is equal to 5cm^2 which represents a measure for area, as does the fourth option.

The third option represents a measurement of length, for example the length of a line segment or the height of a figure.

Answer:

For the null hypothesis to be rejected , then the conclusion of the test is that the absolute values of the z-statistic and/or the t-test statistic is greater than the critical value

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to explain the conclusion of the test given that the null hypothesis is rejected.

Mathematically, the null hypothesis is as expressed as below;

H0: μ = 1,200

The alternative hypothesis H1 would be;

H1: μ > 1,200

Now, before we can reject or accept the null hypothesis, we will need a sample size and thus calculate the test statistics and the z statistics

For us to reject the null hypothesis, one of two things, or two things must have occurred.

The absolute value of the z statistic |z| or the test statistic |t| must be greater than the critical value.

If this happens, then we can make a rejection of the null hypothesis

Explanation:

The piecewise function shows that we have two cases. Either x = 1 or [tex]x \ne 1[/tex].

If x = 1, then g(x) = 3 as shown in the bottom row. This is why g(1) = 3.

If [tex]x \ne 1[/tex], then g(x) = (1/4)x^2-4

Plug x = -5 into this second definition

g(x) = (1/4)x^2-4

g(-5) = (1/4)(-5)^2-4

g(-5) = (1/4)(25)-4

g(-5) = 25/4 - 4

g(-5) = 25/4 - 16/4

g(-5) = 9/4

Repeat for x = 4

g(x) = (1/4)x^2-4

g(4) = (1/4)(4)^2-4

g(4) = (1/4)(16)-4

g(4) = 4-4

g(4) = 0

The value of the function at x = -5, x = 1, and x = 4 will be 2.25, 3, and 0, respectively.

A function is an assertion, concept, or principle that establishes an association between two variables. Functions may be found throughout mathematics and are essential for the development of significant links.

The functions are given below.

g(x) = (1/4)x² - 4, x ≠ 1

g(x) = 3, x = 1

The value of the function at x = -5 will be given as,

g(-5) = (1/4)(-5)² - 4

g(-5) = 25 / 4 - 4

g(-5) = 6.25 - 4

g(-5) = 2.25

The value of the function at x = 4 will be given as,

g(4) = (1/4)(4)² - 4

g(4) = 16 / 4 - 4

g(4) = 4 - 4

g(4) = 0

The value of the function at x = 1 will be given as,

g(1) = 3

The value of the function at x = -5, x = 1, and x = 4 will be 2.25, 3, and 0, respectively.
