Your hose fills a swimming pool in 3 hours. When your friend's hose is used together with your hose, the pool is full in 1 hour. How long (in hours) does it take your friend's hose to fill the pool when working alone

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

My hose = 3 hours ; my rate = 1/3

Let My friend's time = x ; his rate = 1/x

Combined time = 1 hour, combined rate = 1/1 = 1

Combined rate :

1/3 + 1/x = 1

1/x = 1 - 1/3

1/x = (3 - 1)/ 3

1/x = 2/3

Cross multiply :

3 = 2x

x = 3/2

x = 1.5 hours

If the equation y = |x| is graphed and then
moved up 3 units on the y-axis, what will be
the equation of the new graph?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The new equation will be

y = abs(x) + 3

I have made a graph to show you this.

The red graph is y = abs(x)

The blue graph is y = abs(x) + 3

You need only look at the point 0,0 to see what happened. On the red graph (0,0) is the lowest point. When you add 3 to get the lowest point, you should notice that the lowest point is now (0,3)

Let f (x) = 10/x-4
What is the average rate of change of f (x) from 2 to 8 ?

Enter your response as a decimal.

Answers

Answer:

1.875

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change is the derivative of the function.

[tex]f(x) = \frac{10}{x-4}\\\\f'(x)=10\times \frac {d}{dx}\frac{1}{x-4}\\\\f'(x)=\frac{-10}{(x-4)^{2}}\\\\f'(2) = \frac{-10}{(2-4)^{2}} =-2.5\\\\f'(8)= \frac{-10}{(8-4)^{2}} =-0.625\\[/tex]

So, the rate of change is

f'(8) -  f'(2) = - 0.625 + 2.5 = 1.875

If you sleep 6 hours a day every day for a year you are sleeping of every year. If there are 365 days in a year, how
many days per year would you sleep? Simplify your answer and write it as a mixed number.
days

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

365 x 24 = 8,760

365 x 6 = 2,190

8,760 - 2,190 = 6,570

6,570 / 24 = 273 3/4

The person sleeps 91 (1/4) days per year.

What is multiplication?

Multiplication is the process of adding a number up to a given number.

Given that, the person sleeps 6 hours a day.

The total hours of sleeping over a year are:

365 × 6

= 2190 hours per year

Since there are 24 hours in a day, divide 2190 by 24 to get the answer in days per hour:

2190/24

= 91 (1/4)

Hence, the person sleeps 91 (1/4) days per year.

You can select the correct answer choice simply on the basis of "reasonableness." If this were a 9×15 rectangle, its area would be 9×15 = 135 square units, more than 85.5.

A two-sample t-test for a difference in means will be conducted to investigate whether the average amount of money spent per customer at Department Store M is different from that at Department Store V. From a random sample of 35 customers at Store M, the average amount spent was $300 with standard deviation $40. From a random sample of 40 customers at Store V, the average amount spent was $290 with standard deviation $35. Assuming a null hypothesis of no difference in population means, what is the test statistic for the appropriate test to investigate whether there is a difference in population means?

Answers

The test statistic is 1.145 for the appropriate test to investigate whether there is a difference in population means.

A test statistic is a numerical value calculated from sample data in hypothesis testing.

Given that

Sample 1: Store M

Sample size, [tex]n_1[/tex] = 35,

Sample mean, [tex]\bar{X_1}[/tex] = 300,

Standard deviation, [tex]s_1[/tex] = 40.

Sample 2: Store V

Sample size, [tex]n_2[/tex] = 40,

Sample mean, [tex]\bar{X_2}[/tex] = 290,

Standard deviation, [tex]s_2[/tex] = 35.

The null hypothesis, [tex]H_o[/tex] : there is no difference in population means, i.e.,

[tex]\mu_1 =\mu_2[/tex].

The alternate hypothesis, [tex]H_1[/tex] : there is a significant difference in population means, i.e.,

[tex]\mu_1 \neq\mu_2[/tex].

Under the null hypothesis, the test statistic is

[tex]t = \dfrac{\bar{X_1}-\bar{X_2}}{\sqrt{\frac{s_1^2}{n_1}+\frac{s_2^2}{n_2} }}[/tex]

  [tex]= \dfrac{300-290}{\sqrt{\frac{40^2}{35}+\frac{35^2}{40} }}\\=\dfrac{10}{\sqrt{\frac{1600}{35}+\frac{1225}{40} }} \\=\dfrac{10}{\sqrt{45.714+30.625 }} \\=\dfrac{10}{\sqrt{76.339 }}\\=\dfrac{10}{8.737}\\=1.145[/tex]

Hence the test statistic is 1.145.

You weigh a random sample of adult golden retrievers and get the following results: 55, 64, 58, 61, 69, 64, 59, 69, 72, and 65. Which answer gives a 98% confidence interval for the mean of the population

Answers

Answer:

The 98% confidence interval for the mean of the population is (59, 68.2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to find the sample mean and the sample standard deviation.

Sample mean:

[tex]\overline{x} = \frac{55+64+58+61+69+64+59+69+72+65}{10} = 63.6[/tex]

Sample standard deviation:

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{(55-63.6)^2+(64-63.6)^2+(58-63.6)^2+(61-63.6)^2+(69-63.6)^2+(64-63.6)^2+(59-63.6)^2+(69-63.6)^2+(72-63.6)^2+(65-63.6)^2}{10}} = 5.142[/tex]

Confidence interval:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, and thus, we use the t-distribution.

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 = 10 - 1 = 9

98% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 9 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.99[/tex]. So we have T = 2.821

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.821\frac{5.142}{\sqrt{10}} = 4.6[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 63.6 - 4.6 = 59

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 63.6 + 4.6 = 68.2.

The 98% confidence interval for the mean of the population is (59, 68.2).

If P is inversely proportional to Q and if pad when Q = 4. Find the value
of when Q = 3.

A) 7 B) 6 C) 12

Answers

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

If p is  inversely proportional to Q and P is 6 when q = 4, then;

p = k/q

6 = k/4

k = 6*4

k = 24

To get P when q = 3

Recall;

p = k/q

p = 24/3

p = 8

Hence the required value of p is 8

Note that the value of initial Q was assumed

Answers

Answer:   55

==============================================

The 125 degree angle and angle 6 are supplementary. This is because of the same side interior angles theorem.

Let x be the measure of angle 6. Add this to 125, set the sum equal to 180, and solve for x.

x+125 = 180

x = 180-125

x = 55

------------

Or you could approach it this way:

y = measure of angle 2

y+125 = 180

y = 55

angle 6 = angle 2 (corresponding angles)

angle 6 = 55 degrees

-------------

Yet another way you could solve:

z = measure of angle 3

z+125 = 180

z = 55

angle 6 = angle 3 (alternate interior angles)

angle 6 = 55 degrees

A similar approach using alternate interior angles would involve angle 5 = 125, and then noticing that x+125 = 180 solves to x = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex of a quadratic function:

Suppose we have a quadratic function in the following format:

[tex]f(x) = ax^{2} + bx + c[/tex]

It's vertex is the point [tex](x_{v}, y_{v})[/tex]

In which

[tex]x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

[tex]y_{v} = -\frac{\Delta}{4a}[/tex]

Where

[tex]\Delta = b^2-4ac[/tex]

If a<0, the vertex is a maximum point, that is, the maximum value happens at [tex]x_{v}[/tex], and it's value is [tex]y_{v}[/tex].

Equation for the height:

The height of the bird after x seconds is given by:

[tex]h(x) = -0.114x^2 + 2.29x + 3.5[/tex]

Which is a quadratic equation with [tex]a = -0.114, b = 2.29, c = 3.5[/tex].

When the bird is at its highest?

Quadratic equation with [tex]a < 0[/tex], and thus, at the vertex. The ground distance is the x-value of the vertex. Thus

[tex]x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a} = -\frac{2.29}{2(-0.114)} = 10.04[/tex]

This implies that:

[tex]y = -1.077x + 30.98[/tex]

To make prediction when [tex]x = 13.5[/tex]

We have:

[tex]y = -1.077*13.5 + 30.98[/tex]
