Answer:
(a) 160 Naira
(b) Undefined
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Let:
[tex]y \to[/tex] cost of bag of rice
[tex]x \to[/tex] people demanding the bag
So, we have:
[tex]y\ = \frac{k}{\sqrt x} + c[/tex] ---- The variation
[tex]y = 100; x = 36[/tex]
[tex]y = 150; x = 144[/tex]
We have:
[tex]y\ = \frac{k}{\sqrt x} + c[/tex]
When: [tex]y = 100; x = 36[/tex]
[tex]100 = \frac{k}{\sqrt {36}} + c[/tex]
[tex]100 = \frac{k}{6} + c[/tex] -- (1)
When: [tex]y = 150; x = 144[/tex]
[tex]150 = \frac{k}{\sqrt {144}} + c[/tex]
[tex]150 = \frac{k}{12} + c[/tex]--- (2)
Subtract (1) from (2)
[tex]150 - 100 = \frac{k}{12} - \frac{k}{6} + c - c[/tex]
[tex]50 = \frac{k}{12} - \frac{k}{6}[/tex]
Multiply through by 12
[tex]600 = k - 2k[/tex]
[tex]600 = -k[/tex]
[tex]k = -600[/tex]
To solve for x, we have:
[tex]100 = \frac{k}{6} + c[/tex] -- (1)
This gives:
[tex]100 = \frac{-600}{6} + c[/tex]
[tex]100 = -100 + c[/tex]
[tex]c = 100 + 100[/tex]
[tex]c = 200[/tex]
So, the equation is:
[tex]y\ = \frac{k}{\sqrt x} + c[/tex]
[tex]y = -\frac{600}{\sqrt x} + 200[/tex]
Solving (1): y; when x = 225
We have:
[tex]y = -\frac{600}{\sqrt x} + 200[/tex]
[tex]y = -\frac{600}{\sqrt {225}} + 200[/tex]
[tex]y = -\frac{600}{15} + 200[/tex]
[tex]y = -40 + 200[/tex]
[tex]y = 160[/tex]
Solving (2): x; when x = 200
We have:
[tex]y = -\frac{600}{\sqrt x} + 200[/tex]
[tex]200 = -\frac{600}{\sqrt x} + 200[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]\frac{600}{\sqrt x} = 200 - 200[/tex]
[tex]\frac{600}{\sqrt x} =0[/tex]
Cross multiply
[tex]600 =0 * \sqrt x[/tex]
[tex]600 =0[/tex]
x is undefined

Answer:
[tex] a^{5} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the mathematical expression;
a⁸/a³
To rewrite the expression in the form [tex] a^{m} [/tex]
We would have to apply the law of indices.
[tex] Law \; of \; division = \frac {a^{x}}{a^{y}} = a^{x - y} [/tex]
[tex] Law \; of \; division = \frac {a^{8}}{a^{3}} = a^{8 - 3} [/tex]
[tex] a^{m} = a^{8 - 3} = a^{5} [/tex]
Raw scores on a certain standardized test one year were normally distributed, with a mean of 156 and a standard deviation of 23. If
48,592 students took the test, about how many of the students scored less than 96?
Answer:
About 220 of the students scored less than 96
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution:
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Mean of 156 and a standard deviation of 23.
This means that [tex]\mu = 156, \sigma = 23[/tex]
Proportion that scored less than 96:
p-value of Z when X = 96. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{96 - 156}{23}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.61[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.61[/tex] has a p-value of 0.00453.
About how many of the students scored less than 96?
0.00453 out of 48592.
0.00453*48592 = 220.1.
Rounding to the closest integer:
About 220 of the students scored less than 96

Classify the following triangle. Check all that apply.
A
I A. Equilateral
B. Right
C. Acute
I D. Isosceles
O E Obtuse
O F. Scalene
Answer:
A and C
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle given has three equal sides and three equal angles.
Since the sum of a triangle = 180°, therefore, each angle equals 60°
Thus, we can conclude that the triangle is an acute triangle because an acute triangle has all three sides measuring less than 90°. This implies that all it's angles are acute angles.
Also, since all its sides are equal and the same as well as it's three angles, based on this, we can equally say the triangle is an equilateral triangle.
The triangle can be referred to as an acute triangle and also as an equilateral triangle.

The "freshman 15" is the name of a common belief that college students, particularly women, gain an average of 15 pounds during their first year of college. In one study of 110 female first‐year college students (Psychology of Women Quarterly, vol 17, pp.119‐126, 1993), the mean weight was 130.6 pounds at the beginning of the study and 131.4 pounds six months later. The standard deviation was about 20 pounds at each time.
Required:
a. Estimate the change in the mean weight over this six‐month period.
b. Is this sufficient information to find a confidence interval or conduct at estimate about the change in the mean over six months? If not what else do you need to know?
Answer:
A) - 0.8 Ibs
B) There isn't enough information
The standard deviations of the difference scores is needed
Step-by-step explanation:
N = 110 female first year college students
Mean weight at beginning of study = 130.6 Ib
Mean weight after six ( 6 ) months = 131.4 Ib
standard deviation = 20 pounds
A) Determine the change in the mean weight over the six(6) months period
mean weight at beginning - mean weight after six(6) months
= 130.6 - 131.4
= -0.8 Ibs
B) Determine if there is sufficient information to find a confidence interval
There isn't sufficient information to determine the confidence interval but in other to determine the confidence interval or conduct an estimate You need standard deviations of the difference scores to calculate the standard error of mean

Step-by-step explanation:
A leasing firm claims that the mean number of miles driven annually, , in its leased cars is less than miles. A random sample of cars leased from this firm had a mean of annual miles driven. It is known that the population standard deviation of the number of miles driven in cars from this firm is miles. Assume that the population is normally distributed.
Is there support for the firm's claim at the level of significance?
Perform a one-tailed test.
null hypothesis?
alternative hypothesis?
type of test statistic?
value of the test statistic?
the p-value?
Can we support the leasing firm's claim that the mean number of miles driven annually is less than 12800 miles?
Complete question is;
A leasing firm claims that the mean number of miles driven annually, u , in its leased cars is less than 12800 miles. A random sample of 50 cars leased from this firm had a mean of 12499 annual miles driven. It is known that the population standard deviation of the number of miles driven in cars from this firm is 3140 miles. Is there support for the firm's claim at the 0.05 level of significance?
Perform a one-tailed test.
null hypothesis?
alternative hypothesis?
type of test statistic?
value of the test statistic?
the p-value?
Can we support the leasing firm’s claim that the mean number of miles driven annually is less than 12800 miles?
Answer:
A) Null hypothesis; μ ≥ 12800
Alternative hypothesis; μ < 12800
B) type of test statistic: z-score test
C) test statistic; z = -0.678
D) p - value = 0.2489
E) No, we can't support the leasing firms claim
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
Population mean; μ = 12800 miles
Sample mean; x¯ = 12499 miles
Sample size; n = 50
Population standard deviation; σ = 3140
Let's define the hypothesis;
Null hypothesis; μ ≥ 12800
Alternative hypothesis; μ < 12800
The alternative hypothesis is the claim.
Since sample size is greater than 30, we will use z-score test.
Formula for z-score;
z = (x¯ - μ)/(σ/√n)
z = (12499 - 12800)/(3140/√50)
z = -0.678
From online p-value from z-score calculator attached, using z = -0.678 with one tailed hypothesis and significance value of 0.05,we have;
p - value = P(z < -0.678) = 0.2489
The p-value is greater than the significance value, so we will fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is no sufficient information to support the leasing firm's claim

A market researcher would like to know how much time the average college student spends watching sports. Suppose he does a preliminary study based upon a sample of 25 college students. The mean amount of time spent watching sports, by those in the sample, is 90 minutes per day with a standard deviation of 15 minutes per day.
(a) Which of the following numbers gives the value of the point estimate?
a. 15.
b. 25.
c. 90.
d. 0.
e. 95.
(b) Using the information given above, calculate the margin of error (in minutes) of the point estimate. Assume we would like to estimate the population mean with 95% confidence.
(c) Suppose that the researcher is not content with the current margin of error. He would like the margin of error of the point estimate to be no more than 4 minutes with 95% confidence. The researcher is unwilling to trust that the sample standard deviation from his previous study accurately estimates the true population standard deviation. He does, however, know that college students tend to watch sports between 0 and 120 minutes per day. What is the minimum sample size needed to obtain this amount of precision?
Answer:
a) c. 90.
b) The margin of error of the point estimate is of 6.19 minutes.
c) The minimum sample size needed to obtain this amount of precision is 289.
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) Which of the following numbers gives the value of the point estimate?
The value of the point estimate is the sample mean, of 90 minutes. So the answer is given by option c.
(b) Using the information given above, calculate the margin of error (in minutes) of the point estimate. Assume we would like to estimate the population mean with 95% confidence.
We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 25 - 1 = 24
95% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 24 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.0639.
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
Here, we have [tex]s = 15, n = 25[/tex]. So
[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]M = 2.0639\frac{15}{\sqrt{25}}[/tex]
[tex]M = 6.19[/tex]
The margin of error of the point estimate is of 6.19 minutes.
Question c:
College students tend to watch sports between 0 and 120 minutes per day, which means that the standard deviation for population can be estimated as the standard deviation of an uniform distribution with [tex]a = 0, b = 120[/tex]. This standard deviation is:
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{(b-a)^2}{12}}[/tex]
Then
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{(120-0)^2}{12}}[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = 34.64[/tex]
Minimum sample size:
Now, since we have an estimate for the standard deviation of the population, we use the z-distribution.
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].
That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so Z = 1.96.
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.
The minimum sample size is n for which M = 4. So
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]4 = 1.96\frac{34.64}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]4\sqrt{n} = 1.96*34.64[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*34.64}{4}[/tex]
[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*34.64}{4})^2[/tex]
[tex]n = 288.1[/tex]
Rounding up:
The minimum sample size needed to obtain this amount of precision is 289.
Find the side lengths of the triangle in this picture.
Answer:
Hypotenuse: 41 meters, Long leg: 40 meters, Short leg: 9 meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the statement, we have the following information about the lengths of the right triangle:
Hypotenuse
[tex]3\cdot x + 14[/tex]
Long leg
[tex]3\cdot x + 13[/tex]
Short leg
[tex]x[/tex]
By the Pythagoric Theorem, we have the following expression:
[tex](3\cdot x + 14)^{2} = x^{2} + (3\cdot x + 13)^{2}[/tex] (1)
[tex]9\cdot x^{2}+84\cdot x + 196 = x^{2} + 9\cdot x^{2} + 78\cdot x + 169[/tex]
[tex]9\cdot x^{2} + 84\cdot x + 196 = 10\cdot x^{2} + 78\cdot x +169[/tex]
[tex]x^{2} -6\cdot x -27 = 0[/tex]
[tex](x-9)\cdot (x+3) = 0[/tex]
As length is a positive variable by nature, then the only possible solution is [tex]x = 9[/tex]. Lastly, the side lengths of the right triangle are:
Hypotenuse: 41 meters, Long leg: 40 meters, Short leg: 9 meters.
