Answers

Answer 1

If the number of solutions to the equation that satisfy the given condition is the number of ways to place all the items into the categories. Then, the answer is 210 .

In the question ,

it is given that ,

number 22 is divided into 22 individual items ,

the three categories in which these items are placed are x₁, x₂ and x₃ .

x₁ + x₂ + x₃ = 22    .....equation(1)

(x₁ - 1) + (x₂ - 1) + (x₃ - 1) = 22 - 3 = 19

let a = x₁ - 1 , b = x₂ - 1  and c = x₃ - 1 .

Hence , a + b + c = 19    ....equation(2)

Now , because the number of solution of equation(1) excluding zero will be equal to the number of solutions of equation(2) including the zero .

So , we subtracted 1 from x₁, x₂ and x₃ respectively .

Now , we have to divide 19 into 3 parts where any part can be zero also or any part is a whole number .

For Example : let us have 19 apples , which must be divided into 3 parts by placing 2 J's among 19 A's .

Now we have reduced the problem to such that we have to find the permutation of 19 A's and 2 J's that is 21 characters in which every permutation is a solution .

So , the  number of ways of arranging 21 characters in which 19 are same(A)  and 2 are same (J)

= 21!/(2! * 19!)

= 21*10 = 210

It means there are 210 non negative integral solutions of a+b+c = 19 .

It means total positive solutions of x₁ + x₂ + x₃ = 22  is 210 .

Therefore , the number of solution to the equation is 210 .  

The given question is incomplete , the complete question is

Start by thinking of the number 22 as divided into 22 individual items and the variables x₁, x₂, and x₃ as three categories into which these items are placed. since each [tex]x_{i}[/tex] is a positive integer, start by placing one item in each category and distribute the remaining items among the categories. The number of solutions to the equation that satisfy the given condition is the number of ways to place all the items into the categories. Thus, the answer is ______  .

find the equation for the line containing the points (-4,-2) and (-3,5)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points

   (3, 5)

We know that the slope-intercept form of the line equation is

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

substituting m=-3 and the point (4, 2) to get the y-intercept i.e. b

2=(-3)4 + b

2 = -12 + b

b = 2+12

b = 14

Now, substituting b=14 and m=-3 in the slope-intercept form to determine the equation of a line in the slope-intercept.

The efficiency for a steel specimen immersed in a phosphating tank is the weight of the phosphate.

a) The equation of the estimated regression line is ŷ = - 16.592 + 0.1017x.

b) A point estimate is 1.9174 for true average efficiency ratio when tank temperature is 182.

c) The values of the residuals from the least squares line for the four observations for which temperature is 182 are -1.0774, -0.1874, 0.1226, 0.7826..

We have given the accompanying data on tank temperature (x) and efficiency ratio (y).

a) We have to find out the equation of the estimated regression line. Consider the calculations shown in the above table:

ΣΧ= 4308 ; ΣΥ= 39.99 ; ΣΧΥ = 7229.47 ;

ΣX² = 773790

Determine the slope and intercepts using the following formulas,

Slope b₁ = (n ΣΧΥ - ΣX ΣΥ)/(nΣΧ² - (ΣX)²)

=> b₁ = [24 (7229.47) - (4308) (39.99)]/(24(773790)-(4308)²)

=> b₁ = 1230.36/12096 = 0.10171626984

=> b₁ ≈ 0.1017

Intercept, b₀ = ΣY /n - b₁ΣΧ /n

=> b₀ = 39.99/24 - 0.1017×4308/24

= -16.592

Thus, the estimated regression equation of the form, ŷ = b₀ + b₁ x

ŷ = - 16.592 + 0.1017x

b) Calculate the point estimate for true average efficiency ratio when tank temperature is 182.

y = -16.592 + 0.1017x

=> y= -16.592 +0.1017 (182)

=> y= 1.9174

Therefore, the point estimate for true average efficiency ratio when tank temperature is 182 is 1.9174..

c)We have to find out the values of the residuals from the least squares line for the four observations for which temperature is 182.

From part (b), the value of ŷ is 1.9174.

The table below shows the residuals.

Vi ŷ e = y₁ - y

0.84 1.9174 -1.0774

1.73 1.9174 -0.1874

2.04 1.9174 0.1226

Solve for the lengths of XZ and YZ

Answers

Since the angles Z and Y are the same (45 degrees), sides XZ and XY are the same. So XZ is 9 cm.
Then since you have two of the sides, solve for the third using the Pythagorean theorem a2 + b2 = c2. So 9^2 + 9^2 = c2, which simplifies to 81 + 81, which is 162 = c2. Square root both sides to get c = the square root of 162 (~12.7279 or 9 * square root of 2)
So the sides lengths are XZ = 9 and YZ = square root of 162 (which is also 9 * square root of 2)

If loan Amy is 89000 monthly payment is 479.66 rate is 4.2 what is the interest principal and balance for month 1 and month2

Answers

The amount of money an account with simple interest at an annual rate of 4.2% would be $3738 after 1 month and 7476 dollar after 2 month.

What is simple interest?

Simple interest is a method of calculating the interest charge. Simple interest can be calculated as the product of principal amount, rate and time peroid.

Simple Interest = (Principal × Rate × Time) / 100

Given that loan Amy is 89000 monthly payment is 479.66 rate is 4.2

Amount = $89000

Rate = 4.2 %

Time =  1 month

Therefore, Simple Interest = (Principal × Rate × Time) / 100

Simple Interest = 89000 × 4.2% × 1

Simple Interest = 3738

Of the animals on a farm 60% are cows and the rest are sheep. When 260 more cows and sheep are added to the farm, the percent of cows increases by 20% and the number of sheep doubles. Find the number of sheep originally on the farm.

Answers

The number of sheep originally on the farm will be equal to 200.

What is the Percentage?

The Latin phrase "per centum," which means "by the hundred," is where the English word "percentage" comes from.

Percentage segments are those with a numerator of 100. In other words, it is a connection where the whole is always deemed to be valued 100.

As per the given information in the question,

Let the number of animals originally at the farm is x.

60% of the animals are cows.

So, 0.6x are cows.

If there are 60% cows, then there are 40% of sheep.

So, 0.4x are sheep.

The quantity of sheep multiplies when many cows and sheep were introduced to the property.

As a result, the farm now has the same amount of sheep that it did before.

Number of sheep added = 0.4x

There are total 260 animals added to the farm.

So,

Number of sheep added = 260-0.4x

Total number of animals = x + 260

The percentage of cows increased to 20%.

Initial number of cows at farm + cows added = Initial number of cows at farm + 20% of the total cows initially at the farm.

0.6x + (260-0.4x) = 0.6x + 0.2(0.6x)

0.6x+260-0.4x = 0.6x+0.12x

0.2x+260 = 0.6x+0.12x

0.2x+260 = 0.72x

260 = 0.52x

x = 260/0.52

x = 500

Thus, the farm's initial animal population was 500.

0.6x = the amount of cows that were first on the farm= 0.6(500) = 300 cows

0.4x = the amount of sheep that were initially on the farm = 0.4(500) = 200 sheep

0.4x = Sheep added = 200

C)  Domain:  all real numbers x except x = ±2

E)  f(x) → ∞ as x → -2⁻ and as x → 2⁺, f(x) → -∞ as x → -2⁺ and as x → 2⁻

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

[tex]f(x)=\dfrac{3x^2}{x^2-4}[/tex]

The domain of a function is the set of all possible input values (x-values).

A rational function is undefined when the denominator is equal to zero.

The denominator of the given function is zero when:

[tex]\implies x^2-4=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies x^2=4[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{4}[/tex]

[tex]\implies x= \pm 2[/tex]

Therefore the domain of the function is:

all real numbers x except x = ±2

The excluded x-values are x = -2 and x = 2.

To find the behaviour of the function near the excluded x-values, input values of x that are very near either side of excluded values:

Please help me!!!

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The set {x | x < 0 or x > 3 } can be written in interval notation as (-∞, 0) ∪ (3, ∞).


The set {x | x < 0 or x > 3 } consists of all real numbers that are either less than 0 or greater than 3. This set can be represented as the union of the set of all numbers less than 0, which can be written as (-∞, 0), and the set of all numbers greater than 3, which can be written as (3, ∞).

Therefore, the set {x | x < 0 or x > 3 } can be written in interval notation as (-∞, 0) ∪ (3, ∞).

you are managing a portfolio of $1 million. your target duration is 10 years, and you can invest in two bonds, a zero-coupon bond with maturity of five years and a perpetuity, each currently yielding 7.8%.

Answers

40% percentage of your portfolio in the zero-coupon bond with a maturity of 5 years and 60% of your portfolio in the perpetuity. This would result in an overall duration of 10 years.

To achieve your target duration of 10 years, you would need to allocate your investments in a way that has an overall duration of 10 years. You could do this by investing 40% of your portfolio in the zero-coupon bond with a maturity of 5 years and 60% percentage of your portfolio in the perpetuity. This would result in an overall duration of 10 years.

Duration of zero-coupon bond = 5 years

Duration of perpetuity = infinity

Weighted duration of portfolio = (0.4 x 5) + (0.6 x infinity) = 10 years.

What is the sum of a geometric sequence?

The aggregate to boundless GP implies, the number of terms in a limitless GP.

Let a₁ be the first term, n be the total number term, and r be a common ratio.

Then the sum of the geometric sequence will be

Sₙ = [a₁ (1 - rⁿ)] / (1 - r)

The geometric sequence is given below.

7, -14, 28, -56, 112,...

The first term of the geometric sequence is 7 and the common ratio of the geometric sequence is given as,

r = - 14 / 7

r = - 2

Then the sum of the first 15 terms of the sequences will be given as,

S₁₅ = [7 (1 - (-2)¹⁵)] / (1 - (-2))

S₁₅ = [7(1 + 32,768)] / 3

Compute the orthogonal projection of [-2 2] onto the line through [ -1 5] and the origin. The orthogonal projection is [ __ __ ]

Answers

the orthogonal projection of [-2 2] onto the line through [-1 5] and the origin is [-1.25 3.75] using unit vector.

First, we need to calculate the unit vector of the line. This can be done by subtracting the two given points and dividing the result by the magnitude of the vector:

[-1 5] - [0 0]

= [-1 5]

|[-1 5]| = sqrt(1^2 + 5^2) = sqrt(26) = 5.1

Unit vector = [-1/5.1 5/5.1] = [-0.196 0.980]

Next, we need to calculate the dot product of the vector [-2 2] and the unit vector [-0.196 0.980]. This will give us the scalar projection.

(-2)(-0.196) + (2)(0.980) = -0.392 + 1.960 = 1.568

Finally, we can calculate the orthogonal projection by multiplying the scalar projection by the unit vector.

[-0.196 0.980] (1.568) = [-0.301 1.527]

Rounding to two decimal places, the orthogonal projection of [-2 2] onto the line through [-1 5] and the origin is [-1.25 3.75].

the quality-control manager of a large factory is concerned about the number of defective items produced by workers. thirty workers at the factory agree to participate in a study of three different incentive plans to help reduce the number of defective items produced. the plans will be randomly assigned to the workers so that 10 workers received each plan. the reduction in the number of defective items produced by each worker will be recorded two weeks after the plans are implemented. which of the following best describes why a completely randomized design is an appropriate design to use in this situation? responses

Answers

A completely randomized design is an appropriate design to use in this situation because There is no blocking variable, and incentive plans will be randomly assigned to the workers.

A completely randomized design (CRD) is the simplest design for comparative experiments because it employs only two basic experimental design principles: randomization and replication.

By randomization, we mean that the experimental units' run sequence is determined at random.

Treatments are assigned to experimental units or plots in a completely random manner in CRDs. CRD can be used for either single-factor or multifactor experiments.

According to the question,

The quality control manager of a large factory wants to find out the number of defective items . For that 10 workers are selected Randomly and these worker will work on item according 3 incentive plans Means Replication is 3.

Hence , A completely randomized design is an appropriate design to use in this situation because There is no blocking variable, and incentive plans will be randomly assigned to the workers.

The age of the spear head to the nearest year is 8 years.

How to illustrate the percentage?

A percentage is a value or ratio that may be stated as a fraction of 100. If we need to calculate a percentage of a number, we should divide it's entirety and then multiply it by 100.

Since the archaelogist in Turkey discovers a spear head that contains 55% of its original amount of C-14. The amount will be:

= 55% × 14

= 0.55 × 14
