Plot the point (5, 5). Using a line tool, create AB with a length of 4 units from point A. Turn on the trace feature at point B, and move point B
around point A. keeping the length of AB fixed.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Plotting a point A and tracing a point B at 4 units from A results in a circle.
▪The locus of a point at equal distance from a fixed point is a circle.
▪Point A is (5,5) and length of AB is 4 units
This implies that the radius of circle is 4 units.
▪The point B can be swirled around A keeping the distance AB constant.
▪The resulting figure is a circle.
▪This circle is plotted and attached below.

A researcher predicts that listening to music while solving math problems will make a particular brain area more active. To test this, a research participant has her brain scanned while listening to music and solving math problems, and the brain area of interest has a percentage signal change of 58. From many previous studies with this same math problems procedure (but not listening to music), it is known that the signal change in this brain area is normally distributed with a mean of 35 and a standard deviation of 10. (a) Using the .01 level, what should the researcher conclude
Answer:
As the P-value (0.0107) is bigger than the significance level (0.01), the effect is not significant.
The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.
There is not enough evidence to support the claim that listening to music while solving math problems will make a particular brain area more active.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a hypothesis test for the population mean.
The claim is that listening to music while solving math problems will make a particular brain area more active.
Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:
[tex]H_0: \mu=35\\\\H_a:\mu> 35[/tex]
The significance level is 0.01.
The sample has a size n=1.
The sample mean is M=58.
The standard deviation of the population is known and has a value of σ=10.
We can calculate the standard error as:
[tex]\sigma_M=\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{10}{\sqrt{1}}=10[/tex]
Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:
[tex]z=\dfrac{M-\mu}{\sigma_M}=\dfrac{58-35}{10}=\dfrac{23}{10}=2.3[/tex]
This test is a right-tailed test, so the P-value for this test is calculated as:
[tex]\text{P-value}=P(z>2.3)=0.0107[/tex]
As the P-value (0.0107) is bigger than the significance level (0.01), the effect is not significant.
The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.
There is not enough evidence to support the claim that listening to music while solving math problems will make a particular brain area more active.
Find the equation of a line perpendicular to 4x – 4y = -4 that contains the point (-5, -2).
Answer:
Y = -X - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
y-y1 =m(x-x1)
y-(-2)= -1(x-(-5)
y+2 = -1(x+5)
Solve for y
subtract 2 from both sides
y=-x-5-2
Y = -x-7

A baseball player swings and hits a pop fly straight up in the air to the catcher. The height of the baseball in meters t seconds after it is hit is given by the quadratic function h(t)= -4.9t^2 + 9.8t + 1. How long does it take for the baseball to reach its maximum height? What is the maximum height obtained by the baseball?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
max can be found by the formula:
t=-b/2a
t=-9.8/2*(-4.9)
t=-9.8/-9.8
t=1
1 sec
to find maximum height obtained we find the vertex:
plug in 1 for t and simply solve:
h(t)= -4.9t^2 + 9.8t + 1
h(t)= -4.9*1^2 + 9.8*1 + 1
h(t)= -4.9*1 + 9.8 + 1
h(t)= -4.9 + 10.8
h(t)= 5.9
height is 5.9

YOU HAVE TO CLICK THE TRIANGLE TO EE IT BETTER, JUST IN CASE ON THE TOP LEFT SIDE IT IS 8IN AND THE BOTTOM OF THE TRIANGLE IS 10 IN
Answer: D) 8 inches
====================================================
Work Shown:
Refer to the diagram below.
A = 50 degrees
B = unknown
C = 80 degrees
-----
For any triangle, the three angles always add to 180
A+B+C = 180
50+B+80 = 180
B+130 = 180
B = 180-130
B = 50 degrees
Since angles B and C are the same measure, their opposite sides are the same length. Triangle ABC is isosceles. Therefore, a = x = 8
Answer: D) 8 inches.
Step-by-step explanation: The triangle has three angles: two were given (50º and 80º) and the other one can be calculated (50º). Therefore, this triangle is an isosceles triangle, it has one base and two congruent sides. Since the one side is 8in, then the other missing side must also be 8in according to the Isosceles Triangle Theorem.
The blood platelet counts of a group of women have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 255.4 and a standard deviation of 63.9. (All units are 1000 cells/muL.) Using the empirical rule, find each approximate percentage below. a. What is the approximate percentage of women with platelet counts within 3 standard deviations of the mean, or between 63.7 and 447.1? b. What is the approximate percentage of women with platelet counts between 191.5 and 319.3?
Answer:
a) From the empirical rule we know that within 3 deviations from the mean we have 99.7% of the data
b) [tex] P(191.5<X<319.5)[/tex]
We can find the number of deviations from the mean for the limits using the z score formula given by:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
And replacing we got:
[tex] z=\frac{191.5-255.4}{63.9}= -1[/tex]
[tex] z=\frac{319.3-255.4}{63.9}= 1[/tex]
So we have values within 1 deviation from the mean and using the empirical rule we know that we have 68% of the values for this case
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we have the following properties for the random variable of interest "blood platelet counts"
[tex]\mu = 255.4[/tex] represent the mean
[tex]\sigma = 63.9[/tex] represent the population deviation
Part a
From the empirical rule we know that within 3 deviations from the mean we have 99.7% of the data
Part b
We want this probability:
[tex] P(191.5<X<319.5)[/tex]
We can find the number of deviations from the mean for the limits using the z score formula given by:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
And replacing we got:
[tex] z=\frac{191.5-255.4}{63.9}= -1[/tex]
[tex] z=\frac{319.3-255.4}{63.9}= 1[/tex]
So we have values within 1 deviation from the mean and using the empirical rule we know that we have 68% of the values for this case
The probability that a person in the United States has type B+ blood is 12%. Three unrelated people in the United States are selected at random. Complete parts (a) through (d). (a) Find the probability that all three have type B+ blood. The probability that all three have type B+ blood is nothing. (Round to six decimal places as needed.)
Answer:
The probability that all three have type B+ blood is 0.001728
Step-by-step explanation:
For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have type B+ blood, or they do not. The probability of a person having type B+ blood is independent of any other person. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
The probability that a person in the United States has type B+ blood is 12%.
This means that [tex]p = 0.12[/tex]
Three unrelated people in the United States are selected at random.
This means that [tex]n = 3[/tex]
Find the probability that all three have type B+ blood.
This is P(X = 3).
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.12)^{3}.(0.88)^{0} = 0.001728[/tex]
The probability that all three have type B+ blood is 0.001728

Use the multiplication rule for independent event probabilities. Two friends are both pregnant, and find out they are each expecting twins! Let A be the event that one friend is pregnant with identical twins, and note that P(A) = 0.0045. Let B be the event that the other friend is pregnant with fraternal twins, and note that P(B)= 0.01. A and B are independent events. What is the probability that one friend is pregnant with identical twins, and one friend is pregnant with fraternal twins? Give your answer as a percent, rounded to four decimal places if necessary.
Answer:
We have to multiply P(A) and P(B) which is 0.0045 * 0.01 * 100 (to make it a percentage) = 0.0045%.

O A. 35
B.35e
C.35 + e
D. e - 35
Ronat Selection
Answer:
D. e - 35
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that:
George earned e extra points.
Kate earned k extra points.
Kate earned 35 fewer extra credit points than George.
This means that k is e subtracted by 35, that is:
k = e - 35
So the correct answer is:
D. e - 35
Management at a home improvement store randomly selected 45 customers and observed their shopping habits. They recorded the number of items each of the customers purchased as well as the total time the customers spent in the store. Identify the types of variables recorded by the managers of the home improvement store.
Answer:
c. number of items - discrete; total time - continuous
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is incomplete due to the lack of the following options:
to. number of items - continuous; total time - discrete
b. number of items - continuous; total time - continuous
c. number of items - discrete; total time - continuous
d. number of items - discrete; total time - discrete
Knowing this, the type of variables recorded by managers of the home improvement store are,
c. number of items - discrete; total time - continuous
Discrete variables are those that are well defined and in the finite set of values and continuous variables are variables that can take a value between any of the other two values.
Scores on a recent national statistics exam were normally distributed with a mean of 82.2 and a standard deviation of 5.If the top 2.5% of test scores receive merit awards, what is the lowest score eligible for an award
Answer:
The lowest score eligible for an award is 92.
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:
[tex]\mu = 82.2, \sigma = 5[/tex]
If the top 2.5% of test scores receive merit awards, what is the lowest score eligible for an award
The lowest score is the 100 - 2.5 = 97.5th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.975. So X when Z = 1.96. Then
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]1.96 = \frac{X - 82.2}{5}[/tex]
[tex]X - 82.2 = 5*1.96[/tex]
[tex]X = 92[/tex]
The lowest score eligible for an award is 92.

what set of Reflections and rotations could carry ABCD onto itself?
Reflect over y-axis,reflect over the X axis ,rotate 180°
Option D is the correct option.
Explanation:
Let's take point A which is (4,-1)
Reflection over y- axis will make this point (4,1)
Then, reflection over X axis will make this point (4,-1)
After rotation of 180 degree we will get (-4,1) .
Please see the attached picture....
Hope it helps...
Good luck on your assignment...
Answer: d) reflect over the x-axis, reflect over y-axis, rotate 180°
Step-by-step explanation:
A reflection over the x-axis and a reflection over the y-axis is the SAME as a rotation of 180°. Together they make a rotation of 360°, which results in the image staying at the same place.
Reflection over the x-axis changes the sign of the y-coordinate
Z = (x, y) → Z' = (x, -y)
Reflection over the y-axis changes the sign of the x-coordinate
Z' = (x, -y) → Z'' = (-x, -y)
Rotation of 180° changes the signs of both the x- and y-coordinates
Z'' = (-x, -y) → Z''' = (x, y)
A corporation must appoint a​ president, chief executive officer​ (CEO), chief operating officer​ (COO), and chief financial officer​ (CFO). It must also appoint a planning committee with four different members. There are 13 qualified​ candidates, and officers can also serve on the committee. A. How many different ways can the officers be​ appointed?B. How many different ways can the committee be​ appointed?
C. What is the probability of randomly selecting the committee members and getting the four youngest of the qualified​candidates?
Answer:
A) 715 ways
B) 715 ways
C) (1/715)
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a permutation and combination problem.
Since we want to select a number of people from a larger number of people, we use combination as the order of selection isn't important now.
A) How many different ways can the officers be appointed?
There are 4 officer positions.
There are 13 people in total.
We want to select 4 people from 13
Number of ways to select 4 people from 13 = ¹³C₄ = 715
B) How many different ways can the committee be appointed?
Number of committee members = 4
Total number of people available = 13
Number of ways to select 4 people from 13 = ¹³C₄ = 715
C) What is the probability of randomly selecting the committee members and getting the four youngest of the qualified candidates?
Selecting a group of the youngest candidates is just 1 amongst the total number of ways the 4 committee members can be picked,
Hence, the required probability = (1/715)

Fill out the tables for each scenario and answer the question that follows. Use $7.25 as the minimum wage and remember that employees in the United States must be paid time-and-a-half (1.5 times the normal hourly rate) for each hour worked over 40 hours per week
Answer:
see below for the table valuesUS labor cost: $115275 per yearStep-by-step explanation:
The labor charge is for (6 days/week). In Mongolia, the charge per laborer is then ...
(6 days/week)($1.10/day) = $6.60/week
The three laborers working 50 weeks/year will have a labor cost of ...
(3 laborers)($6.60/week/laborer)(50 weeks/year) = $990/year
__
In the US, the labor charge per person per week is ...
(14 hr/day)(6 day/week) = 84 hr/week
That's 40 hours of straight pay and 44 hours of overtime pay, or ...
7.25(40 +1.5(44)) = 7.25(106) = 768.50
For 150 person-weeks per year, the total US labor charge is ...
($768.50/person/week)(3 persons)(50 weeks/year) = $115,275/year
__
The materials cost for a year is ...
($50/rug)(12 rugs/year) = $600/year
__
The revenue is ...
($2000/rug)(12 rugs/year) = $24,000/year
Profit is the difference between revenue and the total of costs:
profit = $24,000 -($990 +600 +10000) = $12410 . . . made in Mongolia
__
So, the table gets filled as follows:
(labor, material, fixed cost, revenue, profit)
Mongolian-made
($990, $600, $10000, $24000, $12410)
US-made
($115275, $600, $10000, $24000, -$101,875)
The US labor cost would be $115,275.

In a study of the effectiveness of airbags in cars, 11,541 occupants were observed in car crashes with airbags available, and 41 of them were fatalities. Among 9,853 occupants in crashes with airbags not available, 52 were fatalities. (a) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference of the two population fatality rates. (please keep 4 decimal places throughout for accuracy) (b) Based on the confidence interval
Answer:
Please the read the answer below
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the 95% confidence interval for the difference of the two populations, you use the following formula (which is available when the population size is greater than 30):
CI = [tex](p_1-p_2)\pm Z_{\alpha/2}(\sqrt{\frac{p_1(1-p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{p_2(1-p_2)}{n_2}})[/tex] (1)
where:
p1: proportion of one population = 52/9853 = 0.0052
p2: proportion of the other population = 41/11541 = 0.0035
α: tail area = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05
Z_α/2: Z factor of normal distribution = Z_0.025 = 1.96
n1: sample of the first population = 52
n2: sample of the second population = 41
You replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1) :
[tex]CI =(0.0052-0.0035)\pm (1.96)(\sqrt{\frac{0.0052(1-0.0052)}{52}+\frac{0.0035(1-0.0035)}{41}})\\\\CI=0.0017\pm0.026[/tex]
By the result obtained in the solution, you can conclude that the sample is not enough, because the margin error is greater that the difference of proportion of each sample population.
Compute the standard error for sample proportions from a population with proportion p= 0.55 for sample sizes of n=30, n=100 and n=1000 . Round your answers to three decimal places.
Given Information:
Population proportion = p = 0.55
Sample size 1 = n₁ = 30
Sample size 2 = n₂ = 100
Sample size 3 = n₃ = 1000
Required Information:
Standard error = σ = ?
Answer:
[tex]$ \sigma_1 = 0.091 $[/tex]
[tex]$ \sigma_2 = 0.050 $[/tex]
[tex]$ \sigma_3 = 0.016 $[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard error for sample proportions from a population is given by
[tex]$ \sigma = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} } $[/tex]
Where p is the population proportion and n is the sample size.
For sample size n₁ = 30
[tex]$ \sigma_1 = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n_1} } $[/tex]
[tex]$ \sigma_1 = \sqrt{\frac{0.55(1-0.55)}{30} } $[/tex]
[tex]$ \sigma_1 = 0.091 $[/tex]
For sample size n₂ = 100
[tex]$ \sigma_2 = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n_2} } $[/tex]
[tex]$ \sigma_2 = \sqrt{\frac{0.55(1-0.55)}{100} } $[/tex]
[tex]$ \sigma_2 = 0.050 $[/tex]
For sample size n₃ = 1000
[tex]$ \sigma_3 = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n_3} } $[/tex]
[tex]$ \sigma_3 = \sqrt{\frac{0.55(1-0.55)}{1000} } $[/tex]
[tex]$ \sigma_3 = 0.016 $[/tex]
As you can notice, the standard error decreases as the sample size increases.
Therefore, the greater the sample size lesser will be the standard error.
Halfway through the season, a soccer player has made 15 penalty kicks in 19 attempts. Based on her performance to date, what is the relative frequency probability that she will make her next penalty kick?
Answer:
[tex]\dfrac{15}{19}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The soccer player so far has made 15 penalty kicks in 19 attempts.
Therefore:
Total Number of trials =19
Number of Successes =15
Therefore, the relative frequency probability that she will make her next penalty kick is:
[tex]=\dfrac{\text{Number of Successes}}{\text{Total Number of Trials}} \\=\dfrac{15}{19}[/tex]
a dock is 5 feet above water. suppose you stand on the edge of the dock and pull a rope to a boat at a constant rate of 2 ft/s. assume the boat remains at water level. at what speed is the boat approaching the dock when it is 4 feet from the dock
Answer:
The boat is approaching the dock at a speed of 3.20 ft/s when it is 4 feet from the dock.
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram of the situation described is shown in the attached image.
The distance of the boat to the dock along the water level at any time is x
The distance from the person on the dock to the boat at any time is y
The height of the dock is 5 ft.
These 3 dimensions form a right angle triangle at any time with y being the hypotenuse side.
According to Pythagoras' theorem
y² = x² + 5²
y² = x² + 25
(d/dt) y² = (d/dt) (x² + 5²)
2y (dy/dt) = 2x (dx/dt) + 0
2y (dy/dt) = 2x (dx/dt)
When the boat is 4 ft from dock, that is x = 4 ft,
The boat is being pulled at a speed of 2 ft/s, that is, (dy/dt) = 2 ft/s
The speed with which the boat is approaching the dock = (dx/dt)
Since we are asked to find the speed with which the boat is approaching the dock when the boat is 4 ft from the dock
When the boat is 4 ft from the dock, x = 4 ft.
And we can obtain y at that point.
y² = x² + 5²
y² = 4² + 5² = 16 + 25 = 41
y = 6.40 ft.
So, to the differential equation relation
2y (dy/dt) = 2x (dx/dt)
when x = 4 ft,
y = 6.40 ft
(dy/dt) = 2 ft/s
(dx/dt) = ?
2 × 6.40 × 2 = 2 × 4 × (dx/dt)
25.6 = 8 (dx/dt)
(dx/dt) = (25.6/8) = 3.20 ft/s.

A farmer wanted to paint a shed out in his field. Here is the breakdown of the dimensions: the building is sitting on a square slab of cement that is 10' x 10'. It is 8 feet from the bottom of the shed to the bottom of the roof on the edge, and 10 feet from the bottom of the shed to the top of the very tip top of the roof. So A = 10, B = 8 and C = 10. Using the formula for the area of a rectangle, A = l x w and the area of a triangle, 1/2(bh), b is base and h is height, then find the total area that needs to be painted. Total area =
Answer:
340 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
If we "unwrap" the painted surface from the shed, it will have the shape shown in the attachment. It is essentially a 40' by 8' rectangle with two 10' wide by 2' high triangles added.
The rectangle area is ...
A = LW = (40 ft)(8 ft) = 320 ft²
The total area of the two triangles is ...
A = 2(1/2)bh = (10 ft)(2 ft) = 20 ft²
Then the painted area is ...
total area = 320 ft² +20 ft²
total area = 340 ft²
a painter paints the side of a house at a rate of 3 square feet per minute. if the dimensions of the side of the house are 15 feet by 18, how many minutes does it take the painter to finish the job?
Answer: 90 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the side = 15 x 18 = 270 sq. ft.
3 sq. ft take a minute to paint
270 sq. ft. will take 270 / 3
= 90 minutes
