Answers

Answer:

  (a) b = (4/7)c

  (b) Bill: 40 shingles/hour; Chip: 70 shingles/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b and c represent Bill's and Chip's rates in shingles per hour, respectively. Then we have ...

  7b = 4c

  c - b = 30 . . . . shingles per hour difference in rates

(a) Bill's rate in terms of Chip's rate can be found by dividing the first equation by 7

  b = (4/7)c . . . . . Bill's rate is 4/7 of Chip's rate

__

(b) To find the rates, we can multiply the second equation by 7 and substitute using the first equation:

  7c -7b = 210

  7c -4c = 210

  c = 210/3 = 70

  b = (4/7)(70) = 40

Bill's rate is 40 shingles per hour; Chip's rate is 70 shingles per hour.

A home improvement contractor is painting the walls and ceiling of a rectangular room. The volume of the room is 875.00 cubic feet. The cost of wall paint is $0.08 per square foot and the cost of ceiling paint is $0.14 per square foot. Find the room dimensions that result in a minimum cost for the paint.

Answers

Answer:

The room dimensions for a minimum cost are: sides of 10 feet and height of 8.75 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a rectangular room with sides x and height y.

The volume of the room is 875 cubic feet, and can be expressed as:

[tex]V=x^2y=875[/tex]

With this equation we can define y in function of x as:

[tex]x^2y=875\\\\y=\dfrac{875}{x^2}[/tex]

The cost of wall paint is $0.08 per square foot. We have 4 walls which have an area Aw:

[tex]A_w=xy=x\cdot \dfrac{875}{x^2}=\dfrac{875}{x}[/tex]

The cost of ceiling paint is $0.14 per square foot. We have only one ceiling with an area:

[tex]A_c=x^2[/tex]

We can express the total cost of painting as:

[tex]C=0.08\cdot (4\cdot A_w)+0.14\cdot A_c\\\\C=0.08\cdot (4\cdot \dfrac{875}{x})+0.14\cdot x^2\\\\\\C=\dfrac{280}{x}+0.14x^2[/tex]

To calculate the minimum cost, we derive this function C and equal to zero:

[tex]\dfrac{dC}{dx}=280(-1)\dfrac{1}{x^2}+0.14(2x)=0\\\\\\-\dfrac{280}{x^2}+0.28x=0\\\\\\0.28x=\dfrac{280}{x^2}\\\\\\x^3=\dfrac{280}{0.28}=1000\\\\\\x=\sqrt[3]{1000} =10[/tex]

The sides of the room have to be x=10 feet.

The height can be calculated as:

[tex]y=875/x^2=875/(10^2)=875/100=8.75[/tex]

The room will have sides of 10 feet and a height of 8.75 feet.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.03}{1.96})^2}=1067.11[/tex]  

And rounded up we have that n=1068

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following info given:

[tex] ME=0.03[/tex] the margin of error desired

[tex]Conf= 0.95[/tex] the level of confidence given

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:  

[tex] ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}[/tex]    (a)  

the critical value for 95% of confidence is [tex] z=1.96[/tex]

We can use as estimator for the population of interest [tex]\hat p=0.5[/tex]. And on this case we have that [tex]ME =\pm 0.03[/tex] and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:  

[tex]n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}[/tex]   (b)  

And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

[tex]n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.03}{1.96})^2}=1067.11[/tex]  

And rounded up we have that n=1068

tree observes the top and bottom of the flagpole below it at angles of 45° and 60° respectively. If the tree is 10.65 m high, Calculate Correct to 3 significant figures the height of the flagpole.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to represent the above information with a diagram to enable us solve the question.

Then label them for easy identification.

To determine the distance between the tree and flagpole, we would apply tangent rule.

Let their distance = x

Tan60 = opposite/adjacent

Tan60 = 10.65/y

Tan60 × y = 10.65

y = 10.65/Tan60

y = 10.65/1.7321

y = 6.15m

For a specific location in a particularly rainy city, the time a new thunderstorm begins to produce rain (first drop time) is uniformly distributed throughout the day and independent of this first drop time for the surrounding days. Given that it will rain at some point both of the next two days, what is the probability that the first drop of rain will be felt between 8: 40 AM and 2: 35 PM on both days? a) 0.2479 Web) 0.0608 om c) 0.2465 d) 0.9385 e) 0.0615 f) None of the above.

Answers

Answer:

b) 0.0608

Step-by-step explanation:

As it is mentioned that the next two days i.e 24 hours, the probability of the rain is uniformly distributed

Therefore the rain probability is

[tex]= \frac{T}{24}[/tex]

where,

T = Length of the time interval

Plus, as we know that rain is independent

So let us assume the rain between the 8: 40 AM and 2: 35 PM on single day is P1 and the time interval is 5 hours 55 minutes

i.e

= 5.91666 hours long.

So, P1 should be

[tex]= \frac{5.91666}{24}[/tex]

= 0.2465

Now we assume the probability of rain on day 2 is P2

So it would be same  i.e 0.2465

Since these events are independent

So, the total probability is

[tex]= 0.2465 \times 0.2465[/tex]

= 0.0608

Hence, the b option is correct

Boys to girls ratio is 2 to 3. There are 18 girls. What is total number of students

Answers

[tex]\frac{2}{3}=\frac{boys}{18}[/tex]

3*boys=2*18

Answer:

30 students

Step-by-step explanation:

2:3 = x:18

X = number of boys

[tex]\frac{2}{3} = \frac{x}{18}[/tex]

multiply 18 by both sides

18 × [tex]\frac{2}{3} = X[/tex]

If the price of a product is p (dollars), the number of units demanded is given by the equation q-pe-3p
(a) Find the price elasticity of demand by using the differentials definition of elasticity. Fully simplify your answer.
(b) Use your answer from part (a) to estimate the percent change in q when the price is raised from $2.00 to $2.10.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\mathbf{E(p) = 1 - 3p}[/tex]

the estimate the percent change in q when the price is raised from $2.00 to $2.10 decreases by 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

the number of units demanded [tex]q = pe^{-3p}[/tex]

Taking differentiations ; we have,

[tex]\dfrac{dq}{dp}=e^{-3p}+p(-3e^{-3p})[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{dq}{dp}=(1-3)e^{-3p}[/tex]

Now; the price elasticity of demand using the differentials definition of elasticity  is:

[tex]E(p) = \dfrac{dq}{dp}*\dfrac{p}{q}[/tex]

[tex]E(p) =[(1-3)e^{-3p}]*[\dfrac{p}{pe^{-3p}}][/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{E(p) = 1 - 3p}[/tex]

(b)   Use your answer from part (a) to estimate the percent change in q when the price is raised from $2.00 to $2.10.

The estimate of the percentage change in price is :

[tex]=\dfrac{2.10-2.00}{2.00}*100 \%[/tex]

= 5%

From (a)

[tex]\mathbf{E(p) = 1 - 3p}[/tex]

Now at p = $2.00

E(2) = 1 - 3 (2.00)

E(2) = 1 - 6

E(2) = -5

The percentage change in q = -5 × 5%

The percentage change in q = -25%

Thus; we can conclude that the estimate the percent change in q when the price is raised from $2.00 to $2.10 decreases by 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the number in the middle of a data set.

First, arrange the data from least to greatest.

10 cm, 15 cm, 15 cm, 18 cm, 20 cm

Now, take one number off each end of the data set until the middle number is reached.

15 cm, 15 cm, 18 cm

15 cm

Therefore the median of the set of measurements is 15 cm.

A committee of 15 members is voting on a proposal. Each member casts a yea or nay vote. On a random voting basis, what is the probability that the final vote count is unanimous?

Answers

Answer:

0.006% probability that the final vote count is unanimous.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they vote yes, or they vote no. The probability of a person voting yes or no 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.

Random voting:

So 50% of voting yes, 50% no, so [tex]p = 0.5[/tex]

15 members:

This means that [tex]n = 15[/tex]

What is the probability that the final vote count is unanimous?

Either all vote no(P(X = 0)) or all vote yes(P(X = 15)). So

[tex]p = P(X = 0) + P(X = 15)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{15,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{15} = 0.00003[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 15) = C_{15,15}.(0.5)^{15}.(0.5)^{0} = 0.00003[/tex]

So

[tex]p = P(X = 0) + P(X = 15) = 0.00003 + 0.00003 = 0.00006[/tex]

0.006% probability that the final vote count is unanimous.

Heights of Women. Heights of adult women are distributed normally with a mean of 162 centimeters and a standard deviation of 8 centimeters. Use the Table B.3 Areas under the Normal Curve (page 519 of the textbook) to find the indicated quantities: a) The percentage of heights less than 150 centimeters b) The percentage of heights between 160 centimeters and 180 centimeters

Answers

Answer:

a) 6.68% of heights less than 150 centimeters

b) 58.65% of heights between 160 centimeters and 180 centimeters

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, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 162, \sigma = 8[/tex]

a) The percentage of heights less than 150 centimeters

We have to find the pvalue of Z when X = 150. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{150 - 162}{8}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.5[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0668

6.68% of heights less than 150 centimeters

b) The percentage of heights between 160 centimeters and 180 centimeters

We have to find the pvalue of Z when X = 180 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 160.

X = 180

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{180 - 162}{8}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.25[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.25[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9878

X = 160

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{160 - 162}{8}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.25[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.25[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.4013

0.9878 - 0.4013 = 0.5865

58.65% of heights between 160 centimeters and 180 centimeters

Edith is purchasing a car whose MSRP is $22,750. She has asked for an

upgrade to a premium package for which the cost is $5050. The delivery of

this vehicle is an additional $700. Edith will trade in her own car, and the

dealer has offered her $8000. If Edith agrees to this, what will be her total

price for the vehicle?

Answers

Answer:

Dear Yates

Answer to your query is provided below

Total Price for her vehicle will be $20600

Step-by-step explanation:

Edith's trading is worth $8000. So, without the package upgrade of the vehicle delivery charge, her cost is:

$22750 - $8000 = $14750.

Now, add the package upgrade ($5050) and the delivery charge ($800).

$14750 + $5050 + $800 = $20600.

The total cost price of the vehicle after all the expenses is given by the equation A = $ 20,500

What is an Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the equation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

The initial cost of the vehicle is = $ 22,750

Now , Edith has asked for an upgrade to a premium package for which the cost is $5050

So , the new cost of the vehicle = $ 22,750 + $ 5050 = $ 27,800

Now , the delivery charge of the vehicle = $ 700

And , the updated total price = $ 27,800 + $ 700 = $ 28,500

Now , the dealer has offered her $8000

So , the final price of the vehicle = updated total price - $ 8000

On simplifying the equation , we get

The final price of the vehicle A = $ 28,500 - $ 8,000

The final price of the vehicle A = $ 20,500

Hence , the final price of the vehicle is $ 20,500

A piece of wire 30 m long is cut into two pieces. One piece is bent into a square and the other is bent into a circle.
(a) How much wire should be used for the square in order to maximize the total area?m
(b) How much wire should be used for the square in order to minimize the total area? m

Answers

The length of wire used for the square in order to minimize the total area is 9.42m.

We are given that;

Length of wire= 30m

Now

Let the length of the wire used for the square x. The length of the wire used for the circle is 30-x.

The perimeter of the square is 4x and the perimeter of the circle is 2πr=2π(30-x)/(2π)=15-x/π.

The area of the square is [tex]x^2/16[/tex] and

the area of the circle is π(15-x/π)2/4π=225/π-(15x)/π2+[tex]x^2[/tex]/4π.

The total area is A=x2/16+225/π-(15x)/π2+[tex]x^2[/tex]/4π.

To maximize A, we take its derivative with respect to x and set it equal to zero: d[tex]A/dx=x/8-15/π^2+1/(4π)(x)=0[/tex]

Solving for x, we get x=120/(8+4π).

Therefore, 30-x=120/(8+4π)(3-π).

To minimize A, we take its derivative with respect to x and set it equal to zero:

[tex]dA/dx=x/8-15/π^2+1/(4π)(x)=0[/tex]

Solving for x, we get x=120/(8+4π)(3+π).

So, 30-x=120/(8+4π)(3-π).

Therefore, by area the answer will be approximately 9.42 m.

on monday, it took 3 builders 5 1/2 hours to build a wall. an identical wall needs to be built on tuesday and 5 builders are available. each builder is paid £8.90 for each hour they work. work out how much each builder will be paid for the work completed on tuesday

Answers

Answer:

£29.37

Step-by-step explanation:

→ First step is to find the amount of hours it takes for 5 builders

[tex]\frac{3*\frac{11}{2} }{5} =\frac{33}{2} /5=\frac{33}{2} *\frac{1}{5} =\frac{33}{10} =3\frac{3}{10}[/tex]

→ Now we know how long 5 builder takes we need to multiply the hourly rate by their time worked

[tex]3\frac{3}{10} *8.90=\frac{33}{10} *8.90=3.3*8.90 = 29.37[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When the number of builders is increased, the hours worked will be reduced.

So, this is inverse proportion.

Number of hours worked by  5 builders = [tex]\frac{3*\frac{11}{2}}{5}\\\\[/tex]

                                                                  [tex]=3*\frac{11}{2}*\frac{1}{5}\\\\=\frac{33}{10}\\\\=3\frac{1}{10}[/tex]

Amount received by each builder= 33/10 * 8.90

                                                       =    £ 29.37

Step-by-step explanation:

The construction makes ray BF a bisector of angle ABC. That bisector divides ABC into the two congruent angles DBF and EBF. As a consequence, angle EBF will be half of ABC, not equal to ABC.

an oil company conducts a geological study that indicates that an exploratory oil well should have a 20% chance of striking oil. assuming independence, what is that probability that the third strike comes on the seventh well drilled

Answers

Answer:

4.92% probability that the third strike comes on the seventh well drilled

Step-by-step explanation:

For each drill, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is a strike, or it is not. Each drill is independent of other drills. 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.

20% chance of striking oil.

This means that [tex]p = 0.2[/tex]

What is that probability that the third strike comes on the seventh well drilled

2 stikers during the first 6 drills(P(X = 2) when n = 6)[/tex]

Strike during the 7th drill, with 0.2 probability. So

[tex]P = 0.2P(X = 2)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{6,2}.(0.2)^{2}.(0.8)^{4} = 0.2458[/tex]

Then

[tex]P = 0.2P(X = 2) = 0.2*0.2458 = 0.0492[/tex]

4.92% probability that the third strike comes on the seventh well drilled

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. The complete question is:

Clarkson University surveyed alumni to learn more about what they think of Clarkson. One part of the survey asked respondents to indicate whether their overall experience at Clarkson fell short of expectations, met expectations, or surpassed expectations. The results showed that 4% of respondents did not provide a response, 26% said that their experience fell short of expectations, 65% of the respondents said that their experience met expectations (Clarkson Magazine, Summer, 2001). If we chose an alumnus at random, what is the probability that the alumnus would say their experience surpassed expectations? If we chose an alumnus at random, what is the probability that the alumnus would say their experience met or surpassed expectations?

Solution:

Probability = number of favorable outcomes/number of total outcomes

From the information given,

The probability that respondents did not provide a response, P(A) is 4/100 = 0.04

The probability that a respondent said that their experience fell short of expectations, P(B) is 26/100 = 0.26

The probability that a respondent said that their experience met expectations, P(C) is 65/100 = 0.65

A) Adding all the probabilities, it becomes 0.04 + 0.26 + 0.65 = 0.95

Therefore, the probability,P(D) that a respondent said that their experience surpassed expectations is 1 - 0.95 = 0.05

B) The event of a randomly chosen respondent saying that their experience met expectations and that their experience surpassed expectations are mutually exclusive because they cannot occur together. It means that P(C) × P(D) = 0

Therefore, the probability of P(C) or P(D) is 0.65 + 0.05 = 0.7
