Two lines intersect and two of the vertical angles measure 37°. What is the measure of the other two vertical angles?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

286 degrees and 143 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

When line intersect the two vertical angle adds up to 180 degrees

To find the other vertical angle:

180 -37=143 degrees

So for two vertical angles

we take (180*2)-(37*2)=286 degrees

Answers

Answer:

Quadrilateral ABCD is a Quadrilateral with four equal sides so either a rhombus or square

But

Quadrilateral ABC'D is a quadrilateral with two adjacent sides equal so it's a kite shape

Step-by-step explanation:

(11, -7), B(9, -4), C(11, -1), and D(13, -4).

Let's take out the values of x and y coordinate with the way they are arranged

X = 11,9,11,13

Y = -7,-4,-1,-4

So we observe that distance of the coordinates on either x is 2 units and y is 3 units.

But when the the value was changed to

C′(11, 1), (11, -7), B(9, -4), C′(11, 1), and D(13, -4).

Which equation has two real solutions?

A. x2 = –100
B. 5x2 = 1
C. 6x2 + 17 = 11
D. 7(x2 + 6) = 42

Answers

Answer:

B. 5x² = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

A. x² = –100

This equation has no solution because x² is always positive.

B. 5x² = 1

then x² = 1/5

then x = 1/(√5) or x = -1/(√5)

C. 6x² + 17 = 11

then 6x² = 11 - 17 = -6

then x² = -6/6 = -1  

This equation has no solution because x² is always positive.

D. 7(x + 6) = 42

then x + 6 = 42/7 = 6

then x = 6 - 6 = 0

(b) Two samples are described in the above situation, that is;

A survey of 100 randomly selected park visitors on a weekday in May.A survey of 100 randomly selected park visitors on a Saturday in May.

(c) The average age of 37 years is a statistic.

(d) The above information represents a quantitative variable.

(e) The possible explanation for the large difference in age between the two samples would be that during weekdays most of the teenagers or children below 20 years of age are not able to come to parks because of their schools, coachings or some studies related work.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a research firm regularly conducts customer satisfaction surveys for an amusement park. A survey of 100 randomly selected park visitors on a weekday in May concluded the average age of visitors to the park was 37 years.

When the survey was repeated with 100 randomly selected park visitors on a Saturday in May the average age of visitors to the park was determined to be 17 years.

(a) The population of interest in this situation is the average age of visitors to the park in MAY during weekdays or weekends.

(b) Two samples are described in the above situation, that is;

A survey of 100 randomly selected park visitors on a weekday in May.A survey of 100 randomly selected park visitors on a Saturday in May.

(c) The average age of 37 years is a statistic as it is the sample average age of visitors to the park on a weekday, i.e. [tex]\bar X_1[/tex] = 37 years.

(d) The above information represents a quantitative variable because in this we are concerned about the average age of visitors in the park which is a numeric value and we are not interested in any qualitative aspect.

(e) The possible explanation for the large difference in age between the two samples would be that during weekdays most of the teenagers or children below 20 years of age are not able to come to parks because of their schools, coachings or some studies related work.

But during weekends like Saturday, the schools or coaching institutions are generally closed due to which they are able to come to parks to play and because of this there are large number of children below 20 years of age who visit parks on weekends.

After 2 hours, there are 1,400 mL of fluids remaining in a patient’s IV. The fluids drip at a rate of 300 mL per hour. Let x be the time passed, in hours, and y be the amount of fluid left in the IV, in mL. Write a linear function that models this scenario.

Answers

Answer:

[tex] y(2) = 1400[/tex]

Using this condition we got:

[tex]1400= -300*2 +b[/tex]

And solving for b we got:

[tex] b= 1400+ 600= 2000[/tex]

So then our linear function is given by:

[tex] y = -300x +2000[/tex]

Where y is the amount of fluid left and x the number of hours ellapsing

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to set up a linear function like this one:

[tex]y = mx+b[/tex]

Where y is the amount of fluid left, m the slope and b the initial amount. From the info given we know thatm = -300. And we also have the following condition:

[tex] y(2) = 1400[/tex]

Using this condition we got:

[tex]1400= -300*2 +b[/tex]

And solving for b we got:

[tex] b= 1400+ 600= 2000[/tex]

So then our linear function is given by:

[tex] y = -300x +2000[/tex]

Where y is the amount of fluid left and x the number of hours ellapsing

A cognitive psychologist would like to evaluate the claim that the omega-3 fatty acids can help improve memory in normal adult humans. One group of participants is given a large dose of fish extract containing the Omega-3 (500 mg), and a second group is given a placebo containing no Omega-3 (0 mg). The researcher asks each participant to read the front page of a local newspaper thoroughly every morning and to take their prescribed dosage (of either Omega-3 or placebo) immediately afterwards. The researcher gives each participant a memory test at the end of two weeks and records how many news items each participant remembers from the past three weeks of news. Answer the following:
A) What names would you give the independent and dependent variables;
B) Is the dependent variable discrete or continuous?
C) What scale of measurement (nominal, ordinal, interval or ratio; and continuous or discrete) is used to measure the independent variable?
D) What research method is being used (experimental or observational)? Explain why you conclude that the research method is one or the other.

Answers

Answer:

(a)

Independent Variable- Dosage of Omega-3 Fatty AcidsDependent Variable - Number of news item remembered

(b)Discrete

(c)Ratio Scale and Discrete Variable

(d) Experimental Method

Step-by-step explanation:

The psychologist wants to evaluate the claim that omega-3 fatty acids can help improve memory in normal adult humans.

(a)In the study, the participants in the two groups were given fish extracts containing Omega-3 (500 mg) and no Omega-3 (0 mg).

The memory test involves measuring the number of items each participant remembers from the past three weeks of news.

Therefore:

Independent Variable- Dosage of Omega-3Dependent Variable - Number of news item remembered

(b) The dependent variable is discrete since the number of news items remembered can only be whole numbers.

(c)The independent variable is in milligrams of Omega-3 where the placebo is 0 mg. This is a ratio scale since it has an absolute zero.

Since the dosage is given in multiples of 50mg, it is a discrete variable.

(d)Since the psychologist seeks to manipulate the conditions of the study by introducing Omega-3 to some of the participants and placebo to other participants, it is an experimental distribution.

How do you solve this problem? population proportion is to be estimated from a sample of 400 with a sample proportion of 0.1. Approximate the​ 95% confidence interval of the population proportion

Answers

Answer:

(0.0706, 0.1294)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval of a proportion is:

CI = p ± CV × SE

where p is the proportion,

CV is the critical value (z score or t score),

and SE is the standard error.

The sample is large enough to estimate as normal.  For 95% confidence level, CV = z = 1.96.

Standard error for a proportion is:

SE = √(pq/n)

SE = √(0.1 × 0.9 / 400)

SE = 0.015

The confidence interval is:

CI = 0.1 ± (1.96)(0.015)

CI = (0.0706, 0.1294)

Do consumers spend more on a trip to Target or​ Walmart? Suppose researchers interested in this question collected a systematic sample for 84 Target customers and 80 Walmart customers by asking customers for their purchase amount as they left the store. Using the given summary​ statistics, researchers calculated a​ 95% confidence interval for the mean difference between Target and Walmart purchase amounts. The interval was ​($negative 15.05​,$negative 2.95​). Explain in context what this interval means.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval for the difference between two population means is written in the form,

difference in sample means ± margin of error

The difference in sample means is the point estimate for the difference in population means. In the given scenario, the point estimate is the difference in mean amount spent by the sampled customers on a trip to Target or​ Walmart.

Since the interval was (- $15.05​,$2.95), it means that the lower limit is - $15.05 and the upper limit us $2.95.

Therefore, the 95% confidence interval is providing a range that we are 95% confident that the true difference in mean amount spent by Target customers and Walmart customers falls between - $15.05​ and $2.95

Robin read somewhere that adding salt to water while heating it will raise the temperature of

the water causing it to boil faster. To test this claim, she filled 30 identical pots with one quart

of water. She randomly selected 15 of the pots and added 1 teaspoon of salt. She then placed

each pot on identical burners set to the highest setting. She measured the water temperature

In each pot after 5 minutes.

Is Robin's research method an example of an observational study experiment, or

simulation?

b

If Robin does find that there is a difference between the water temperatures in the pots

with salt compared to those without can she conclude that the salt caused the

difference in temperature?

Answers

Answer:

a. An experiment

b. No

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Robin's research method can be concluded to be an experiment because she has a testable group (pots of water with salt) and a control group (pots of water without salt).

2. Based on this alone, she cannot conclude that the salt caused the

difference in temperature because she has not set some appropriate conditions which are to be met for this test.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

The probability of winning is 0.8

i.e P(winning) = 0.8

Then P(losing) = 0.2

a) Y ~ Geometric distribution

[tex]P = P(loose) =0.2 \\ \\ \mu_{\delta} = \dfrac{1}{P}= \dfrac{1}{0.2}\\ \\ = 5.0 \\ \\ \\ \dfrac{\sigma ^2 }{\delta } = \dfrac{1-P}{P^2} \\ \\ =\dfrac{0.8}{0.04} \\ \\ = 20[/tex]

b) Y ~ Negative Binomial Distribution

[tex]P = P (loose) =0.2 \\ \\ \delta = number \ of \ loss = 4 \\ \\ \mu_{\delta} = \dfrac{\delta}{P} \\ \\ =\dfrac{4}{0.2} \\ \\ = 20 \\ \\ \\ \sigma ^2_{\delta} = \dfrac{\delta (1-P)}{P^2} \\ \\ = \dfrac{4*0.8}{0.04}\\ \\ = 80[/tex]

c) Y ~ Binomial Distribution;

n = 100 ; P = 0.8

[tex]\mu_{\delta} = nP \\ \\ = 100*0.8 \\ \\ = 80 \\ \\ \\ \sigma_{\delta}^2 = nP(1-P) \\ \\ =80*0.2 \\ \\ = 16[/tex]

V. Money Magazine reported that the average price of gasoline in the United States during the first quarter of 2008 was $3.46. Assume that the price reported by Money is the population mean, and the standard deviation σ is $0.15. a. What is the probability that the mean price for a sample of 30 gas stations is within $0.03 of the population mean?

Answers

Answer:

[tex] z=\frac{3.43 -3.46}{\frac{0.15}{\sqrt{30}}} = -1.095[/tex]

[tex] z=\frac{3.49 -3.46}{\frac{0.15}{\sqrt{30}}} = 1.095[/tex]

And we can find this probability using the normal standard table and we got:

[tex] P(-1.095<z<1.095) = P(z<1.095) -P(z<-1.095) =0.863 -0.137= 0.726[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the price of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

[tex]X \sim N(3.46,0.15)[/tex]  

Where [tex]\mu=3.46[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=0.15[/tex]

And for this case we want to find the following probability:

[tex] P(3.43 \leq \bar X \leq 3.49)[/tex]

And we can use the z score formula given by:

[tex] z=\frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

If we find the z score for the limits we got:

[tex] z=\frac{3.43 -3.46}{\frac{0.15}{\sqrt{30}}} = -1.095[/tex]

[tex] z=\frac{3.49 -3.46}{\frac{0.15}{\sqrt{30}}} = 1.095[/tex]

And we can find this probability using the normal standard table and we got:

[tex] P(-1.095<z<1.095) = P(z<1.095) -P(z<-1.095) =0.863 -0.137= 0.726[/tex]

Apparently they are significantly different, as this is the conclusion with a P-value of 0.025.

Suppose that it costs $200 per day to search for chanterelle mushrooms at Pt. Reyes National Seashore. On an average day, the total weight of mushrooms M found at Pt. Reyes is M = 100x-x^2 pounds ,where x is the number of people mushroom hunting on that day. Chanterelles can be sold for $60 per pound. How many more people will go mushroom hunting than is socially optimal?

Answers

Answer:

For an overall profit, we need at least 97 people to go mushroom hunting.

Any number of people that is more than the socially optimal number should go mushroom hunting on any given day.

Step-by-step explanation:

The socially optimal number of people that will go mushroom hunting is the number where amount spent to go mushroom hunting equally balances the amount obtained by selling the mushrooms obtained.

If x people go mushroom hunting in a day, the total cost of hunting for that day = 200x

The amount of mushroom obtained is given as

M = (100x - x²) in pounds

The selling price of 1 pound = $60

The cost of M pounds = 60M = 60(100x - x²)

= (6000x - 60x²)

At socially optimal number,

200x = 6000x - 60x²

60x² - 6000x + 200x = 0

60x² - 5800x = 0

x(60x - 5800)

x = 0 or (60x - 5800) = 0

x = 0 or x = (5800/60) = 96.67

Socially optimal number of people = 0 or 96.67

For realistic purposes, we take the socially optimal number of people that went mushroom hunting as 96.67

Any number above this number will result in an overall profit, and any number below it results in an overall loss.

So, for an overall profit, we need at least 97 people to go mushroom hunting.

Hope this Helps!!

Answer:

48 people

Step-by-step explanation:

When allocating resources to a particular task it is important to assign optimal units of resources.

In this scenario if the people hunting mushrooms are too many they will not make profit. But an optimal number will guarantee everyone makes positive profit.

Optimal = (M÷x)Px - 200= 0

Optimal= {(100x -x^2) ÷ x} * 60 = 200

Optimal = 6000 - 60x = 200

x= 96.666~ 97 people

However to maximise profit MTB = MTC

Socially Optimal quantity = 60(100x - x^2) -200

∂(Socially Optimal amount) ÷ ∂ x= 6000 - 120x - 200

x = 48.33~ 48 people

So 48 more people go mushroom hunting than is socially optimal
