if a varies inversely as the cube root of b and a=1 when b=64, find b​

Answers

Answer:

  b = 64/a³

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the given information, we can only find a relation between a and b. We cannot find any specific value for b.

Since a varies inversely as the cube root of b, we have ...

  a = k/∛b

Multiplying by ∛b lets us find the value of k:

  k = a·∛b = 1·∛64 = 4

Taking the cube of this equation gives ...

  64 = a³b

  b = 64/a³ . . . . . divide by a³

The value of b is ...

  b = 64/a³

Answers

Answer:

Monthly: $4,821

Weekly: $1112.54

Step-by-step explanation:

Monthly

A monthly salary can be found by dividing the yearly salary by the number of months.

salary / months

His salary is $57,852 and there are 12 months in a year.

$57,852/ 12 months

Divide

$4,821 / month

Jeremy makes $4,821 per month.

Weekly

To find the weekly salary, divide the yearly salary by the number of weeks.

salary / weeks

He makes $57,852 each year and there are 52 weeks in one year.

$57,852 / 52 weeks

Divide

$1112.53846 / week

The mean monthly car payment for 123 residents of the local apartment complex is $624. What is the best point estimate for the mean monthly car payment for all residents of the local apartment complex?

Answers

Answer:

The best point estimate for the mean monthly car payment for all residents of the local apartment complex is $624.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

In this question:

We apply the inverse Central Limit Theorem.

The mean monthy car payment for 123 residents of the local apartment complex is $624.

So, for all residents of the local apartment complex, the best point estimate for the mean monthly car payment is $624.

Tablet Tailors sells tablet PCs combined with Internet service, which permits the tablet to connect to the Internet anywhere and set up a Wi-Fi hot spot. It offers two bundles with the following terms.

1. Tablet Bundle A sells a tablet with 3 years of Internet service. The price for the tablet and a 3-year Internet connection service contract is $500. The standalone selling price of the tablet is $250 (the cost to Tablet Tailors is $175). Tablet Tailors sells the Internet access service independently for an upfront payment of $300. On January 2, 2017, Tablet Tailors signed 100 contracts, receiving a total of $50,000 in cash.

2. After 2 years of the 3-year contract, Tablet Tailors offers a modified contract and extension incentive. The extended contract services are similar to those provided in the first 2 years of the contract. Signing the extension and paying $90 (which equals the standalone selling of the revised Internet service package) extends access for 2 more years of Internet connection.

                      Unearned Service Revenue                               3600

40 * 90 = 3600

services in the extended period are the same as the services that were provided in the original contract period. As they are not distinct hence the modifications will be considered as part of the original contract.

(B)

Date           Particulars                                    Debit           Credit

                       Service revenue                                             2413

internet = 300, price = 550, connection service = 500

(300/550) * 500 = 273

so

Original internet service contract = 40 * 273 = 10,920

Revenue recognized in 1st two years = 10,920 * 2/3 = 7280

Remaining service at original rates = 10920 - 7280 = 3640

Extended service = 3600

3640 + 3600 = $7240  

7240 / 3 = $2413

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equality y > -½, it means the values of y is greater than -½.

The values of y would range from 0 upwards. I.e. 0, ½, 1, 1½, 2. . .

Thus, when graphed on a number line, the circle that appears like "o" would start from -½, and the "o" would not be full or shaded to indicate that -½ is not included in the values of y, which are greater than -½. Since the values of y are greater than -½ the direction of the arrow that indicates values of y would point towards our far right, to indicate the values included as y.

Therefore, the graph that indicates the inequality y > ½ is A

At 95% confidence, how large a sample should be taken to obtain a margin of error of 0.05 for the estimation of a population proportion

Answers

Answer:

A sample of 385 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

95% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].

How large a sample:

We need a sample of n.

n is found when M = 0.05.

We dont know the true proportion, so we work with the worst case scenario, which is [tex]\pi = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.05 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.05\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.5[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*0.5}{0.05}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{1.96*0.5}{0.05})^{2}[/tex]

[tex]n = 384.16[/tex]

By what percent will the fraction increase if its numerator is increased by 60% and denominator is decreased by 20% ?

Answers

Answer:

100%

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with x.

x = x/1

Increase the numerator by 60% to 1.6x.

Decrease the numerator by 20% to 0.8.

The new fraction is

1.6x/0.8

Do the division.

1.6x/0.8 = 2x

The fraction increased from x to 2x. It became double of what it was. From x to 2x, the increase is x. Since x was the original number x is 100%.

The increase is 100%.

Answer:

33%

Step-by-step explanation:

let fraction be x/y

numerator increased by 60%

=x+60%ofx

=8x

denominator increased by 20%

=y+20%of y

so the increased fraction is 4x/3y

let the fraction is increased by a%

then

x/y +a%of (x/y)=4x/3y

or, a%of(x/y)=x/3y

[tex]a\% = \frac{x}{3y} \times \frac{y}{x} [/tex]

therefore a=33

d) the expected number of rolls until six 6's appear
e) the expected number of rolls until all six faces appear

Answers

Answer:

a. 0.34885

b. 0.04651

c. 0.02404

d. 36

e. 14.7, say 15 trials

Step-by-step explanation:

Q17070205

Note:  

1. In order to be applicable to established probability distributions, each roll is considered a Bernouilli trial, i.e. has only two outcomes, success or failure, and are all independent of each other.

2. use R to find the probability values from the respective distributions.

a) the chance that the first 6 appears before the tenth roll

This means that a six appears exactly once between the first and the nineth roll.

Using binomial distribution, p=1/6, n=9, x=1

dbinom(1,9,1/6) = 0.34885

b) the chance that the third 6 appears on the tenth roll

This means exactly two six's appear between the first and 9th rolls, and the tenth roll is a six.

Again, we have a binomial distribution of p=1/6, n=9, x=2

p1 = dbinom(2,9,1/6) = 0.27908

The probability of the tenth roll being a 6 is, evidently, p2 = 1/6.

Thus the probability of both happening, by the multiplication rule, assuming independence  

P(third on the tenth roll) = p1*p2 = 0.04651

c) the chance of seeing three 6's among the first ten rolls given that there were six 6's among the first twenty roles.

Again, using binomial distribution, probability of 3-6's in the first 10 rolls,

p1 = dbinom(3,10,1/6) = 0.15504

Probability of 3-6's in the NEXT 10 rolls

p1 = dbinom(3,10,1/6) = 0.15504

Probability of both happening  (multiplication rule, assuming both events are independent)

= p1 *  p1 = 0.02404

d) the expected number of rolls until six 6's appear

Using the negative binomial distribution, the expected number of failures before n=6 successes, with probability p = 1/6

=  n(1-p)/p

Total number of rolls by adding n  

= n(1-p)/p + n = n(1-p+p)/p = n/p = 6/(1/6) = 36

e) the expected number of rolls until all six faces appear

P1 = 6/6 because the firs trial (roll) can be any face with probability 1

P2 = 6/5 because the second trial for a different face has probability 5/6, so requires 6/5 trials

P3 = 6/4 ...

P4 = 6/3

P5 = 6/2

P6 = 6/1

So the total mean (expected) number of trials is 6/6+6/5+6/4+6/3+6/2+6/1 = 14.7, say 15 trials

The width of a casing for a door is normally distributed with a mean of 24 inches and a standard deviation of 1/8 inch. The width of a door is normally distributed with a mean of 23 7/8 inches and a standard deviation of 1/16 inch. Assume independence. a. Determine the mean and standard deviation of the difference between the width of the casing and the width of the door. b. What is the probability that the width of the casing minus the width of the door exceeds 1/4 inch? c. What is the probability that the door does not fit in the casing?

Answers

Answer:

a) Mean = 0.125 inch

Standard deviation = 0.13975 inch

b) Probability that the width of the casing minus the width of the door exceeds 1/4 inch = P(X > 0.25) = 0.18673

c) Probability that the door does not fit in the casing = P(X < 0) = 0.18673

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the distribution of the width of the casing be X₁ (μ₁, σ₁²)

Let the distribution of the width of the door be X₂ (μ₂, σ₂²)

The distribution of the difference between the width of the casing and the width of the door = X = X₁ - X₂

when two independent normal distributions are combined in any manner, the resulting distribution is also a normal distribution with

Mean = Σλᵢμᵢ

λᵢ = coefficient of each disteibution in the manner that they are combined

μᵢ = Mean of each distribution

Combined variance = σ² = Σλᵢ²σᵢ²

λ₁ = 1, λ₂ = -1

μ₁ = 24 inches

μ₂ = 23 7/8 inches = 23.875 inches

σ₁² = (1/8)² = (1/64) = 0.015625

σ₂ ² = (1/16)² = (1/256) = 0.00390625

Combined mean = μ = 24 - 23.875 = 0.125 inch

Combined variance = σ² = (1² × 0.015625) + [(-1)² × 0.00390625] = 0.01953125

Standard deviation = √(Variance) = √(0.01953125) = 0.1397542486 = 0.13975 inch

b) Probability that the width of the casing minus the width of the door exceeds 1/4 inch = P(X > 0.25)

This is a normal distribution problem

Mean = μ = 0.125 inch

Standard deviation = σ = 0.13975 inch

We first normalize/standardize 0.25 inch

The standardized score of any value is that value minus the mean divided by the standard deviation.

z = (x - μ)/σ = (0.25 - 0.125)/0.13975 = 0.89

P(X > 0.25) = P(z > 0.89)

Checking the tables

P(x > 0.25) = P(z > 0.89) = 1 - P(z ≤ 0.89) = 1 - 0.81327 = 0.18673

c) Probability that the door does not fit in the casing

If X₂ > X₁, X < 0

P(X < 0)

We first normalize/standardize 0 inch

z = (x - μ)/σ = (0 - 0.125)/0.13975 = -0.89

P(X < 0) = P(z < -0.89)

Checking the tables

P(X < 0) = P(z < -0.89) = 0.18673

Would this be correct even though I didn’t use the chain rule to solve?

Answers

Answer:

Dy/Dx=1/√ (2x+3)

Yeah it's correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying differential by chain differentiation method.

The differential of y = √(2x+3) with respect to x

y = √(2x+3)

Let y = √u

Y = u^½

U = 2x +3

The formula for chain differentiation is

Dy/Dx = Dy/Du *Du/Dx

So

Dy/Dx = Dy/Du *Du/Dx

Dy/Du= 1/2u^-½

Du/Dx = 2

Dy/Dx =( 1/2u^-½)2

Dy/Dx= u^-½

Dy/Dx=1/√ u

But u = 2x+3

Dy/Dx=1/√ (2x+3)

Find the length and width of a rectangle that has the given perimeter and a maximum area. Perimeter: 116 meters

Answers

Answer:

Length = 29 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y be the length and width of the rectangle, respectively.

The area and perimeter are given by:

[tex]A=xy\\p=116=2x+2y\\y=58-x[/tex]

Rewriting the area as a function of x:

[tex]A(x) = x(58-x)\\A(x) = 58x-x^2[/tex]

The value of x for which the derivate of the area function is zero, is the length that maximizes the area:

[tex]A(x) = 58x-x^2\\\frac{dA}{dx}=0=58-2x\\ x=29\ m[/tex]

The value of y is:

[tex]y = 58-29\\y=29\ m[/tex]

Length = 29 m

Width = 29 m

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

You have to determine the sample size to take to estimate the population proportion of Democrats among registered voters in Texas for a 96% interval with a margin of error of 0.01 and sample proportion p'= 0.28

The interval for the population proportion is

p' ± [tex]Z_{1-\alpha /2}[/tex]*[tex]\sqrt{\frac{p'(1-p')}{n} }[/tex]

The margin of error of the interval is:

d= [tex]Z_{1-\alpha /2}[/tex]*[tex]\sqrt{\frac{p'(1-p')}{n} }[/tex]

[tex]\frac{d}{Z_{1-\alpha /2}}= \sqrt{\frac{p'(1-p')}{n} }\\(\frac{d}{Z_{1-\alpha /2}} )^2= \frac{p'(1-p)}{n} \\n*(\frac{d}{Z_{1-\alpha /2}} )^2= p'(1-p)\\n= p'(1-p)*(\frac{Z_{1-\alpha /2}}{d} )^2\\[/tex]

[tex]Z_{1-\alpha /2}= Z_{0.98}= 2.054[/tex]

[tex]n= 0.28*(1-0.28)*(\frac{2.054}{0.01} )^2= 8505.33[/tex]

n= 8506 voters

I hope this helps!

Show all work to solve 3x^2 – 5x – 2 = 0.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

3x2−5x−2=0

For this equation: a=3, b=-5, c=-2

3x2+−5x+−2=0

Step 1: Use quadratic formula with a=3, b=-5, c=-2.

x= (−b±√b2−4ac )2a

x= (−(−5)±√(−5)2−4(3)(−2) )/2(3)

x= (5±√49 )/6

x=2 or x= −1 /3

Answer:

x=2 or x= −1/ 3

The solutions to the equation are x = -1/3 and x = 2.

Here are the steps on how to solve [tex]3x^{2}[/tex] – 5x – 2 = 0:

First, we need to factor the polynomial. The factors of 3 are 1, 3, and the factors of -2 are -1, 2. The coefficient on the x term is -5, so we need to find two numbers that add up to -5 and multiply to -2. The two numbers -1 and 2 satisfy both conditions, so the factored polynomial is (3x + 1)(x - 2).

Next, we set each factor equal to 0 and solve for x.

(3x + 1)(x - 2) = 0

3x + 1 = 0

3x = -1

x = -1/3

x - 2 = 0

x = 2

Therefore, the solutions to the equation [tex]3x^{2}[/tex] – 5x – 2 = 0 are x = -1/3 and x = 2.

Here is the explanation for each of the steps:

Step 1: In order to factor the polynomial, we need to find two numbers that add up to -5 and multiply to -2. The two numbers -1 and 2 satisfy both conditions, so the factored polynomial is (3x + 1)(x - 2).

Step 2: We set each factor equal to 0 and solve for x. When we set 3x + 1 equal to 0, we get x = -1/3. When we set x - 2 equal to 0, we get x = 2. Therefore, the solutions to the equation are x = -1/3 and x = 2.

In a survey, 205 people indicated they prefer cats, 160 indicated they prefer dots, and 40 indicated they don’t enjoy either pet. Find the probability that if a person is chosen at random, they prefer cats

Answers

Answer: probability =  0.506

Step-by-step explanation:

The data we have is:

Total people: 205 + 160 + 40 = 405

prefer cats: 205

prefer dogs: 160

neither: 40

The probability that a person chosen at random prefers cats is equal to the number of people that prefer cats divided the total number of people:

p = 205/405 = 0.506

in percent form, this is 50.6%
