Answer: We have two solutions:
1000 - 998 = 2
1001 - 999 = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
So we have the problem:
****-*** = 2
where each star is a different digit, so in this case, we have a 4 digit number minus a 3 digit number, and the difference is 2.
we know that if we have a number like 99*, we can add a number between 1 and 9 and we will have a 4-digit as a result:
So we could write this as:
1000 - 998 = 2
now, if we add one to each number, the difference will be the same, and the number of digits in each number will remain equal:
1000 - 998 + 1 - 1 = 2
(1000 + 1) - (998 + 1) = 2
1001 - 999 = 2
now, there is a trivial case where we can find other solutions where the digits can be zero, like:
0004 - 0002 = 2
But this is trivial, so we can ignore this case.
Then we have two different solutions.

Gwen has $20, $10, and $5 bills in her purse worth a total of $220. She has 15 bills in all. There are 3 more $20 bills than there are $10 bills. How many of each does she have?
Answer:
x = 8 ( 20$ bills)
y = 5 ( 10 $ bills)
z = 2 ( 5 $ bills)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let call x, y, and z the number of bill of 20, 10, and 5 $ respectively
then according to problem statement, we can write
20*x + 10*y + 5*z = 220 (1)
We also know the total number of bills (15), then
x + y + z = 15 (2)
And that quantity of 20 $ bill is equal to
x = 3 + y (3)
Now we got a three equation system we have to solve for x, y, and z for which we can use any valid procedure.
As x = 3 + y by substitution in equation (2) and (1)
( 3 + y ) + y + z = 15 ⇒ 3 + 2*y + z = 15 ⇒ 2*y + z = 12
20* ( 3 + y ) + 10*y + 5*z = 220 ⇒ 60 + 20*y + 10*y + 5*z = 220
30*y + 5*z = 160 (a)
Now we have only 2 equations
2*y + z = 12 ⇒ z = 12 - 2*y
30*y + 5*z = 160 30*y + 5* ( 12 - 2*y) = 160
30*y + 60 - 10*y = 160
20*y = 100
y = 100/20 y = 5 Then by substitution in (a)
30*y + 5*z = 160
30*5 + 5*z = 160
150 + 5*z = 160 ⇒ 5*z = 10 z = 10/5 z = 2
And x
x + y + z = 15
x + 5 + 2 = 15
x = 8
Answer:
x=8 y=5 x=2

A boat that can travel 18 mph in still water can travel 21 miles downstream in the same amount of time that it can travel 15 miles upstream. Find the speed (in mph) of the current in the river.
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
We see that if the river isn't moving at all the boat can move at 18 mph (most likely because it has an engine propelling it.)
We want to set up a proportion where our 21 miles downstream time is equal to our 15 miles upstream time so we can find the speed. A proportion is basically showing that two ratios are equal. Since our downstream distance and upstream distance can be done in the same amount of time, we will write it as a proportion.
We want to find the speed of the river. We will use r to represent the speed of the river. When going downstream, the boat will go faster, so it will have a higher mph. So, our speed going down is 18+r. When you are going upstream, it's the opposite, so it will be 18-r.
[tex]\frac{distance}{speed} =\frac{21}{18+r} = \frac{15}{18-r}[/tex]
So, how do we figure out what r is now? Well, one nice thing to know about proportions is that the product of the items diagonal from each other equals the product of the other items. Basically, that means that 15(18+r) is equal to 21(18-r). This is a very nice trick to solve proportions quickly. We see that we have made an equation and now we can solve it!
15(18+r)=21(18-r)
We use the distributive property to undo the parentheses.
270+15r=378-21r
We subtract 270 from both sides.
15r=108-21
We add 21 to both sides.
36r=108
We divide both sides by 36.
r=3
Therefore, the speed of the river is 3 mph.
You also could have noticed that 18mph to 21 mph is +3, and 18mph to 15 mph -3 in -3 mph, so the speed of the river is 3 mph. That would have been a quicker way to solve it XD!

The time X(mins) for Ayesha to prepare breakfast for her family is believed to have a uniform
distribution with A=25 and B=35.
a) Determine the pdf of X and draw its density curve.
b) What is the probability that time taken by Ayesha to prepare breakfast exceeds 33 mins?
c) What is the probability that cooking or preparation time is within 2 mins of the mean time?
(Hint: Identify mean from the graph of f(x))
Answer:
(c) [tex]f_{X}(x)=\left \{ {{\frac{1}{35-25}=\frac{1}{10};\ 25<X<35} \atop {0;\ Otherwise}} \right.[/tex]
(b) The probability that time taken by Ayesha to prepare breakfast exceeds 33 minutes is 0.20.
(c) The probability that cooking or preparation time is within 2 mins of the mean time is 0.40.
Step-by-step explanation:
The random variable X follows a Uniform (25, 35).
(a)
The probability density function of an Uniform distribution is:
[tex]f_{X}(x)=\left \{ {{\frac{1}{B-A};\ A<X<B} \atop {0;\ Otherwise}} \right.[/tex]
Then the probability density function of the random variable X is:
[tex]f_{X}(x)=\left \{ {{\frac{1}{35-25}=\frac{1}{10};\ 25<X<35} \atop {0;\ Otherwise}} \right.[/tex]
(b)
Compute the value of P (X > 33) as follows:
[tex]P(X>33)=\int\limits^{35}_{33} {\frac{1}{10}} \, dx \\\\=\frac{1}{10}\cdot\int\limits^{35}_{33} {1} \, dx \\\\=\frac{1}{10}\times [x]^{35}_{33}\\\\=\frac{35-33}{10}\\\\=\frac{2}{10}\\\\=0.20[/tex]
Thus, the probability that time taken by Ayesha to prepare breakfast exceeds 33 minutes is 0.20.
(c)
Compute the mean of X as follows:
[tex]\mu=\frac{A+B}{2}=\frac{25+35}{2}=30[/tex]
Compute the probability that cooking or preparation time is within 2 mins of the mean time as follows:
[tex]P(30-2<X<30+2)=P(28<X<32)[/tex]
[tex]=\int\limits^{32}_{28} {\frac{1}{10}} \, dx \\\\=\frac{1}{10}\cdot\int\limits^{32}_{28}{1} \, dx \\\\=\frac{1}{10}\times [x]^{32}_{28}\\\\=\frac{32-28}{10}\\\\=\frac{4}{10}\\\\=0.40[/tex]
Thus, the probability that cooking or preparation time is within 2 mins of the mean time is 0.40.

Answer:
[tex]\boxed{\sf \ \ \ a=-2, \ b = 1 \ \ \ }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,
saying that the function is continuous means that you cannot have a "jump" in the graph of the function
so we want
a*(-3)+b=7 and a*4+b=-7
it comes
(1) -3a + b = 7
(2) 4a + b = -7
(2)-(1) gives 4a + b + 3a - b =7a = -7-7 = -14
so a = -14/7 = -2
we replace in (1)
b = 7 + 3*(-2) = 7 - 6 = 1

Complete Question
Which of the following statements are true?
I. The sampling distribution of [tex]\= x[/tex] has standard deviation [tex]\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex] even if the population is not normally distributed.
II. The sampling distribution of [tex]\= x[/tex] is normal if the population has a normal distribution.
III. When n is large, the sampling distribution of [tex]\= x[/tex] is approximately normal even if the the population is not normally distributed.
A I and II
B I and III
C II and III
D I, II, and III
None of the above gives the complete set of true responses.
Answer:
The correct option is D
Step-by-step explanation:
Generally the mathematically equation for evaluating the standard deviation of the mean([tex]\= x[/tex]) of samples is [tex]\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex] hence the the first statement is correct
Generally the second statement is true, that is the sampling distribution of the mean ([tex]\= x[/tex]) is normal given that the population distribution is normal
Now according to central limiting theorem given that the sample size is large the distribution of the mean ([tex]\= x[/tex]) is approximately normal notwithstanding the distribution of the population
An article reported that for a sample of 52 kitchens with gas cooking appliances monitored during a one-week period, the sample mean CO2 level (ppm) was 654.16, and the sample standard deviation was 165.4.
Required:
a. Calculate and interpret a 9596 (two-sided) confidence interval for true average C02 level in the population of all homes from which the sample was selected.
b. Suppose the investigators had made a rough guess of 175 for the value of s before collecting data. What sample size would be necessary to obtain an interval width of 50 ppm for a confidence level of 95%?
Answer:
a) [tex]654.16-2.01\frac{165.4}{\sqrt{52}}=608.06[/tex]
[tex]654.16+2.01\frac{165.4}{\sqrt{52}}=700.26[/tex]
b) [tex]n=(\frac{1.960(175)}{25})^2 =188.23 \approx 189[/tex]
So the answer for this case would be n=189 rounded up to the nearest integer
Step-by-step explanation:
Part a
[tex]\bar X=654.16[/tex] represent the sample mean
[tex]\mu[/tex] population mean (variable of interest)
s=165.4 represent the sample standard deviation
n =52represent the sample size
The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:
[tex]\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex] (1)
The degrees of freedom aregiven by:
[tex]df=n-1=52-1=51[/tex]
Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the significance [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2 =0.025[/tex], and the critical value would be [tex]t_{\alpha/2}=2.01[/tex]
Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):
[tex]654.16-2.01\frac{165.4}{\sqrt{52}}=608.06[/tex]
[tex]654.16+2.01\frac{165.4}{\sqrt{52}}=700.26[/tex]
Part b
The margin of error is given by this formula:
[tex] ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex] (a)
And on this case we have that ME =25 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} s}{ME})^2[/tex] (b)
The critical value for this case wuld be [tex]z_{\alpha/2}=1.960[/tex], replacing into formula (b) we got:
[tex]n=(\frac{1.960(175)}{25})^2 =188.23 \approx 189[/tex]
So the answer for this case would be n=189 rounded up to the nearest integer
the depth D, in inches, od wsnow in my yard t hours after it started snowing this morning is given by D=1.5t + 4. if the depth of the snow is 7 inches now, what will be the depth one hour from now?
Answer:
8.5 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
First let's find the time t when the depth of the snow is 7 inches.
To do this, we just need to use the value of D = 7 then find the value of t:
[tex]7 = 1.5t + 4[/tex]
[tex]1.5t = 3[/tex]
[tex]t = 2\ hours[/tex]
We want to find the depth of snow one hour from now, so we just need to use the value of t = 3 to calculate D:
[tex]D = 1.5*3 + 4[/tex]
[tex]D = 4.5 + 4 = 8.5\ inches[/tex]
The depth of snow one hour from now will be 8.5 inches.
The depth of the snow one hour from now is 8.5 inches.
Let D represent the depth of snow in inches at time t. It is given by the relationship:
D=1.5t + 4
Since the depth of the snow is 7 inches now, hence, the time now is:
7 = 1.5t + 4
1.5t = 3
t = 2 hours
One hour from now, the time would be t = 2 + 1 = 3 hours. Hence the depth at this time is:
D = 1.5(3) + 4 = 8.5 inches
Therefore the depth of the snow one hour from now is 8.5 inches.

What is the value of the angle marked with xxx?
Answer:
Here you go!! :)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the sides of the quadrilateral are 3.3
The measure of one angle is 116°
We need to determine the value of x.
Value of x:
Since, the given quadrilateral is a rhombus because it has all four sides equal.
We know the property that the opposite sides of the rhombus are equal.
The measure of the opposite angle is 116°
x = measure of opposite angle
x = 116°
Then, the value of x is 116°
Therefore, the value of x is 116°
Answer:
In the diagram, the measurement of x is 87°
Step-by-step explanation:
In this diagram, this shape is a quadrilateral. This quadrilateral in this picture is known as rhombus. In a rhombus, the consecutive angles are supplementary meaning they have a sum of 180°. Consecutive means the angles are beside each other. So, we will subtract 93 from 180 to find the value of x.
180 - 93 = 87
The measurement of x is 87°

The life of light bulbs is distributed normally. The standard deviation of the lifetime is 25 hours and the mean lifetime of a bulb is 510 hours. Find the probability of a bulb lasting for at most 552 hours.
Answer:
The probability of a bulb lasting for at most 552 hours.
P(x>552) = 0.0515
Step-by-step explanation:
Step(i):-
Given mean of the life time of a bulb = 510 hours
Standard deviation of the lifetime of a bulb = 25 hours
Let 'X' be the random variable in normal distribution
Let 'x' = 552
[tex]Z = \frac{x-mean}{S.D} = \frac{552-510}{25} =1.628[/tex]
Step(ii):-
The probability of a bulb lasting for at most 552 hours.
P(x>552) = P(Z>1.63)
= 1- P( Z< 1.63)
= 1 - ( 0.5 + A(1.63)
= 1- 0.5 - A(1.63)
= 0.5 -A(1.63)
= 0.5 -0.4485
= 0.0515

the linear equation y=2x represents the cost y of x pounds of pears. which order pair lies on the graph of the equation? A. (2,4) B. (1,0) C.(10,5) D. (4,12)
Answer:
A. (2, 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The ordered pairs represent (x, y). Since you have y =2x, this is the same as ...
(x, 2x)
That is, the second number in the pair needs to be twice the first number in the pair. Since you know your times tables, you know that this is not the case for (1, 0), (10, 5) or (4, 12). Those values of x would give (1, 2), (10, 20), (4, 8).
It is the case that you have (x, 2x) for (2, 4).
The point (2, 4) lies on the graph of y = 2x.

vertex form of x^2+6x+3
Answer:
y = (x + 3)^2 - 6.
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertex formula is Y = a(x - h)^2 + k.
To find the vertex formula, we need to find h and k, by finding the vertex of x^2 + 6x + 3.
h = -b/2a
a = 1, b = 6.
h = -6 / 2 * 1 = -6 / 2 = -3
k = (-3)^2 + 6(-3) + 3 = 9 - 18 + 3 = -9 + 3 = -6
So far, we have Y = a(x - (-3))^2 + -6, so y = a(x + 3)^2 - 6.
In this case, the coefficient of x^2 of the given formula is 1, which means that a will be 1.
The vertex form of x^2 + 6x + 3 is y = (x + 3)^2 - 6.
To check our work...
y = (x + 3)^2 - 6
= x^2 + 3x + 3x + 9 - 6
= x^2 + 6x + 3

Making handcrafted pottery generally takes two major steps: wheel throwing and firing. The time of wheel throwing and the time of firing are normally distributed random variables with means of 40 minutes and 60 minutes and standard deviations of 2 minutes and 3 minutes, respectively. Assume the time of wheel throwing and time of firing are independent random variables. (d) What is the probability that a piece of pottery will be finished within 95 minutes
Answer:
The probability that a piece of pottery will be finished within 95 minutes is 0.0823.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the time of wheel throwing and the time of firing are normally distributed variables with means of 40 minutes and 60 minutes and standard deviations of 2 minutes and 3 minutes, respectively.
Let X = time of wheel throwing
So, X ~ Normal([tex]\mu_x=40 \text{ min}, \sigma^{2}_x = 2^{2} \text{ min}[/tex])
where, [tex]\mu_x[/tex] = mean time of wheel throwing
[tex]\sigma_x[/tex] = standard deviation of wheel throwing
Similarly, let Y = time of firing
So, Y ~ Normal([tex]\mu_y=60 \text{ min}, \sigma^{2}_y = 3^{2} \text{ min}[/tex])
where, [tex]\mu_y[/tex] = mean time of firing
[tex]\sigma_y[/tex] = standard deviation of firing
Now, let P = a random variable that involves both the steps of throwing and firing of wheel
SO, P = X + Y
Mean of P, E(P) = E(X) + E(Y)
[tex]\mu_p=\mu_x+\mu_y[/tex]
= 40 + 60 = 100 minutes
Variance of P, V(P) = V(X + Y)
= V(X) + V(Y) - Cov(X,Y)
= [tex]2^{2} +3^{2}-0[/tex]
{Here Cov(X,Y) = 0 because the time of wheel throwing and time of firing are independent random variables}
SO, V(P) = 4 + 9 = 13
which means Standard deviation(P), [tex]\sigma_p[/tex] = [tex]\sqrt{13}[/tex]
Hence, P ~ Normal([tex]\mu_p=100, \sigma_p^{2} = (\sqrt{13})^{2}[/tex])
The z-score probability distribution of the normal distribution is given by;
Z = [tex]\frac{P- \mu_p}{\sigma_p}[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
where, [tex]\mu_p[/tex] = mean time in making pottery = 100 minutes
[tex]\sigma_p[/tex] = standard deviation = [tex]\sqrt{13}[/tex] minutes
Now, the probability that a piece of pottery will be finished within 95 minutes is given by = P(P [tex]\leq[/tex] 95 min)
P(P [tex]\leq[/tex] 95 min) = P( [tex]\frac{P- \mu_p}{\sigma_p}[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] [tex]\frac{95-100}{\sqrt{13} }[/tex] ) = P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] -1.39) = 1 - P(Z < 1.39)
= 1 - 0.9177 = 0.0823
The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.39 in the z table which has an area of 0.9177.

(c)[tex]a_n=(-5)^{n-1}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The sequence [tex]a_n$ _{n=1}^\infty[/tex] is given as:
[tex]\{1,-5,25,-125,625,\cdots\}[/tex]
(a)The next two terms of the sequence are:
625 X -5 = - 3125
-3125 X -5 =15625
(b)Recurrence Relation
The recurrence relation that generates the sequence is:
[tex]a_n=-5a_{n-1}, \\n\geq 2 \\a_1=1[/tex]
(c)Explicit Formula
The sequence is an alternating geometric sequence where:
Common Ratio, r=-5First Term, a=1Therefore, an explicit formula for the sequence is:
[tex]a_n=1\times (-5)^{n-1}\\a_n=(-5)^{n-1}[/tex]

Slope is the change in y over the change in x
Slope = (1-0) /( -3 - -4)
Slope = 1/1
Slope = 1
In 1998, the average price for bananas was 51 cents per pound. In 2003, the following 7 sample prices (in cents) were obtained from local markets:
50, 53, 55, 43, 50, 47, 58.
Is there significant evidence to suggest that the average retail price of bananas is different than 51 cents per pound? Test at the 5% significance level.
Answer:
[tex]t=\frac{50.857-51}{\frac{5.014}{\sqrt{7}}}=-0.075[/tex]
The degrees of freedom are given by:
[tex]df=n-1=7-1=6[/tex]
The p value for this case would be given:
[tex]p_v = 2*P(t_6 <-0.075)=0.943[/tex]
The p value for this case is lower than the significance level so then we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly different from 51
Step-by-step explanation:
Info given
50, 53, 55, 43, 50, 47, 58.
We can calculate the sample mean and deviation with this formula:
[tex]\bar X=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}[/tex]
[tex]s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2)}{n-1}}[/tex]
represent the mean height for the sample
[tex]s=5.014[/tex] represent the sample standard deviation for the sample
[tex]n=7[/tex] sample size
represent the value that we want to test
[tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.
t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)
[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the p value
Hypothesis to test
We want to test if the true mean is equal to 51, the system of hypothesis would be:
Null hypothesis:[tex]\mu = 51[/tex]
Alternative hypothesis:[tex]\mu \neq 51[/tex]
The statistic is given by:
[tex]t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex] (1)
Replacing we got:
[tex]t=\frac{50.857-51}{\frac{5.014}{\sqrt{7}}}=-0.075[/tex]
The degrees of freedom are given by:
[tex]df=n-1=7-1=6[/tex]
The p value for this case would be given:
[tex]p_v = 2*P(t_6 <-0.075)=0.943[/tex]
The p value for this case is lower than the significance level so then we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly different from 51
