After approximately 113 minutes, there will be only 40 bacteria remaining.

Half-life is defined as the time it will took a substance to reduce to half of its initial amount. The half-life of a substance is determined with respect to the rate of the reaction. It can be calculated using the formula below.

N(t) = N₀(1/2)^(t/T)

where N(t) = amount of substance remaining after time t

N₀ = initial amount of substance

t = time

T = half-life

If the sample begins with 500 bacteria, and after 16 minutes there are 350 bacteria, then

N₀ = 500, and N(t) = 350 when t = 16 minutes

Substitute the given values and solve for the half-life.

N(t) = N₀(1/2)^(t/T)

350 = 500(1/2)^(16/T)

T = 31.09 minutes

Using the formula, solve for t when n(t) = 40.

N(t) = N₀(1/2)^(t/T)

40 = 500(1/2)^(t/31.09)

t = 113.30 minutes

t ≅ 113 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The first two events are not independent, with a probability P = 0.00603

The second pair of events is independent, and the probability is P = 0.0625

First, all the cards on the deck have the same probability of being randomly drawn, which will be p = 1/52.

A) Now, if Lacy first draws a spade card, now the number of cards in the deck are less (now there are 51 cards on the deck). So the probability of drawing now a spade is larger than before. Then the first two events are not independent.

The probability of drawing a 10 card at first is:

P = 4/52 (because there are 4 10's and a total of 52 cards).

The probability of drawing a 4's after is:

Q = (4/51)

The joint probability is the product of the individual probabilities, this will give: p = P*Q = (4/52)*(4/51) = 0.00603

B) Now we replace the first card, then the events are now independent, as the probability of drawing a spade after the first draw is not changed (because the total number of cards will be 52).

The probability of drawing a spade is:

P = 13/52

Now we replace the spade card drawn.

The probability of drawing a club will be:

Q = 13/52

The joint probability is:

p = P×Q = (13/52)² = 0.0625

Tn the given situation, the appro[riate null hypotheses and alternative hypotheses are: H₀: μ₁ ≥ μ₂a and H₁: μ₁ < μ₂

An assertion used in statistical inference experiments is known as the alternative hypothesis.

It is indicated by Ha or H1 and runs counter to the null hypothesis.

Another way to put it is that it is only a different option from the null.

An alternative theory in hypothesis testing is a claim that the researcher is testing.

The initial assertion that forms the null hypothesis frequently rests on research from the past or expert knowledge.

According to the alternative hypothesis, a population parameter is either less, larger, or different from the value predicted by the null hypothesis.

So, the new production method supposedly lowers the mean operating cost per hour.

The following are the hypothesis when comparing the average production costs of the new production method (μ₁) with the old production method (μ₂):

Alternate interior angles --> 3,6 and 4,5

The probability that the cost will be between $250 and $470 is 0.7354.

What is probability?

The area of mathematics known as probability deals with numerical representations of the likelihood that an event will occur or that a proposition is true. An event's probability is a number between 0 and 1, where, roughly speaking, 0 denotes the event's impossibility and 1 denotes certainty.

Given:

Automobile repair costs continue to rise with the average cost now at $367 per repair.†

Assume that the cost for an automobile repair is normally distributed with a standard deviation of $88.

We have to find the probability that the cost will be between $250 and $470.

P( 250 < x < 470 ) = P( x <470 ) - P( x < 250 )

P( x < 470 ) = NORMDIST( 470 , 367, 88, 1 ) = 0.8272

P( x < 250 ) = NORMDIST( 250 , 367, 88, 1 ) = 0.09183

P( 250 < x < 470 ) = 0.8272 - 0.09183 = 0.7354

P( 250 < x < 470 ) = 0.7354

Hence, the probability that the cost will be between $250 and $470 is 0.7354.

"with replacement". that means any pulled ball is returned into the bag, and we have the full 7+3 = 10 balls to pull from every time.

remember, a probability is always

desired cases / totally possible cases

(a) 2 back will be red. I understand this, that exactly 2 balls will be red (not fewer, not more).

to get exactly 2 red balls we get 2 red balls and 4 black balls.

the probability for such a single event is

7/10 × 7/10 × 3/10 × 3/10 × 3/10 × 3/10 = 49×81/1000000 =

= 0.003969

because the probably to get a red ball (one from 7 out of 10) is 7/10.

the probability to get a black ball is 3/10.

how many different such single events are possible ?

as many as there are combinations to pick 2 out of 6 :

C(6, 2) = 6! / (2! × (6-2)!) = 6! / (2 × 4!) =

= 6×5 / 2 = 3×5 = 15

so, the probability to get exactly 2 red balls is

15 × 0.003969 = 0.059535 ≈ 0.05954

(b)

the probability of all 6 balls being black is

3/10 × 3/10 × 3/10 × 3/10 × 3/10 × 3/10 =

= 3⁶/1000000 = 0.000729 ≈ 0.00073

(c)

"at least 4 black balls" means exactly 4, or exactly 5, or exactly 6 balls are black.

that means we need to calculate all 3 probabilities and add them (non-overlapping "or"-cases means addition of probabilities, "and" cases mean multiplication as above).

to get exactly 4 black balls (= 4 black balls and 2 red balls) is the same as (a) : 0.059535

to get exactly 5 black balls (= 5 black balls and 1 red ball) in one specific constellation is

3⁵/10⁵ × 7/10 = 243×7/1000000 = 0.001701

and we have C(6, 5) possible constellations

C(6, 5) = 6! / (5! × (6-5)! = 6! / 5! = 6

the total probability to get exactly 5 black balls is

6 × 0.001701 = 0.010206

to get exactly 6 black balls is (b) : 0.000729

the probability to get at least 4 black balls is

0.059535 + 0.010206 + 0.000729 =

= 0.07047

If Shen produced and Manuel consumed one additional bottle of water, total surplus would be $2

The law of supply and demand combines two fundamental economic ideas that describe how changes in the price of a resource, commodity, or product affect its supply and demand.

Supply grows as the price rises, but demand drops. In contrast, as the price falls, supply is constrained and demand is increased.

Demand and supply levels for different prices can be displayed as curves on a graph. The intersection of these curves symbolizes the process of price discovery in the marketplace, as it indicates the balance, or market-clearing price, at which demand equals supply.

According to the law of demand, demand for a good or resource will decrease as its price increases and increase as its price decreases.

Price of raffle ticket= $10

First price= $5460

Second prize= $496

Remaining 18 prize= $100

$0 for the remaining tickets= 3500-20=3480 tickets

When winning the 1st prize, the winnings = $5460−$10=$5450.

When winning the 2nd prize, the profit= $496−$10=$486.

When winning the other 18 prizes, the profit= $100−$10=$90.

Sample size determination is the act of choosing the number of observations or replicates to include in a statistical sample. The sample size is an important feature of any empirical study in which the goal is to make inferences about a population from a sample. In practice, the sample size used in a study is usually determined based on the cost, time, or convenience of collecting the data, and the need for it to offer sufficient statistical power. In complicated studies there may be several different sample sizes.

Sample sizes may be chosen in several ways:

Given in the question:

A sample size of n is needed.

n is found when M = 0.4.

95% Central interval

Z = 1.96

  M = z × σ /√n

⇒ 0.40 = 1.96 × 0.75 /√n

⇒ 0.40√n = 1.96 ×0.75

⇒ √n = 1.96 ×0.75/0.40

⇒ (√n)² = (1.96 ×0.75 / 0.40 )²

(5, 3), (4, 3), and (5, 5)

translate to the origin

= (5 - 3, 3 - 3), (4 - 3, 3 - 3), and (5 - 3, 5 - 3)

= (2, 0), (1, 0), and (2, 2)

dilate about the origin

2 * { (2, 0), (1, 0), and (2, 2) }

(4, 0), (2, 0), and (4, 4)

translate back to usual position

(4 + 3, 0 + 3), (2 + 3, 0 + 3), and (4 + 3, 4 + 3)

(7, 3), (5, 3), and (7, 7)

Therefore the image is at (7, 3), (5, 3), and (7, 7)

Answer:

Positive seven.

Step-by-step explanation:

Go past zero to normal seven.

Answer:positive 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution for y in the expression is y = -53 and y = 63

From the question, the expression is given as

y = 5 ± 58

We start by expanding the expression

So, we have the following representation

y = 5 - 58 and y = 5 + 58

Evaluate the sum and the difference of the like terms in the above expression

So, we have the following representation

y = -53 and y = 63

Hence, the solution is

y = -53 and y = 63
