Answer 1

Using the normal distribution, it is found that:

a) [tex]X \approx N(25150, 12050)[/tex]

b) There is a 0.5859 = 58.59% probability that the college graduate has between $14,200 and $33,950 in student loan debt.

c) Low: $23,519.65, High: $26,580.35.

Normal Probability Distribution

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

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

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean. Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.

The mean and the standard deviation are given, respectively, by:

[tex]\mu = 25150, \sigma = 12050[/tex].

Hence the distribution of X can be described as follows:

[tex]X \approx N(25150, 12050)[/tex]

The probability that the college graduate has between $14,200 and $33,950 in student loan debt is the p-value of Z when X = 33950 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 14200, hence:

X = 33950:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{33950 - 25150}{12050}[/tex]

Z = 0.73

Z = 0.73 has a p-value of 0.7673.

X = 14200:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{14200 - 25150}{12050}[/tex]

Z = -0.91

Z = -0.91 has a p-value of 0.1814.

0.7673 - 0.1814 = 0.5859.

There is a 0.5859 = 58.59% probability that the college graduate has between $14,200 and $33,950 in student loan debt.

Considering the symmetry of the normal distribution, the middle 10% is between the 45th percentile(X when Z = -0.127) and the 55th percentile(X when Z = 0.127), hence:

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

[tex]-0.127 = \frac{X - 25150}{12050}[/tex]

X - 25150 = -0.127(12050)

X = $23,519.65.

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

[tex]0.127 = \frac{X - 25150}{12050}[/tex]

X - 25150 = 0.127(12050)

X = $26,580.35.

A tennis ball can in the shape of a right circular cylinder holds four tennis balls snugly. If the radius of a tennis ball is 3.5 ​cm, what percentage of the can is not occupied by tennis​ balls?

Answers

Answer:

  about 33.3%

Step-by-step explanation:

The fraction of space not occupied will be the same as the unoccupied fraction of a cylinder of the same height and diameter as a sphere.

Volume of a cylinder

The volume of a cylinder of diameter d and height d will be ...

  V = πr²h = π(d/2)²(d) = (π/4)d³

Volume of a sphere

The volume of a sphere of diameter d is ...

  V = 4/3πr³ = 4/3π(d/2)³ = (π/6)d³

Unoccupied space

The fraction of space that is occupied is ...

  occupied space = (sphere volume)/(cylinder volume)

  occupied space = ((π/6)d³) / ((π/4)d³) = 4/6 = 2/3

The fraction of unoccupied space is ...

  unoccupied fraction = 1 -2/3 = 1/3

Barn Yard Inc. is a wholesaler that stocks engine components and tests equipment for the commercial aircraft industry. A new customer has placed an order for eight high-bypass turbine engines, which increase fuel economy. The variable cost is $1.6 million per unit, and the credit price is $1.725 million each. Credit is extended for one period, and based on historical experience, payment for about one out of every 200 such orders is never collected. The required return is 1.8% per period.Suppose that customers who don’t default become repeat customers and place the same order every period forever. Further assume that repeat customers never default.

Answers

The NPV is positive, therefore, this order can be placed.

How to calculate the NPV?

The calculation of probability of default will be:

= 1 / 200 = 0.005

We use NPV formula to find out whether the order should be filled or not

NPV = -Variable cost per unit +[(1-π)(price of equipment/1+percentage of return)]

= -$1.6 million +[(1-0.005)($1.725m/1.018)]

= -$1.6m + $1.6860

= 0.0860 million

As NPV is positive this order can be placed.

A town has population of 5000 and grows at 3.5% every year. To the nearest tenth
of a year, how long will it be until the population will reach 7300?

Answers

It would take approximately 11 years for this population to reach 7300.

How to calculate the time?

Based on the information provided, the future size of the population can be modelled by using an exponential function:

F = Pe^rt

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

7300 = 5000e^{0.035 × t}

7300/5000 = e^{0.035t}

1.46 = e^{0.035t}

Taking the ln of both sides, we have:

ln(1.46) = ln(e^{0.035t})

0.378 = 0.035t

t = 0.378/0.035

Answers

The inverse function of f(x) = 5x/3 + 5 is f-1(x) = 3x/5 - 3

How to determine the inverse?

The function is given as:

f(x) = 5x/3 + 5

Rewrite as:

y = 5x/3 + 5

Swap x and y

x = 5y/3 + 5

Subtract 5 from both sides

x - 5 = 5y/3

Multiply through by 3

3x - 15 = 5y

Divide through by 5

y = 3x/5 - 3

Express as inverse function

f-1(x) = 3x/5 - 3

Prove that there is no prime trio with common difference 70.
P.S. I want actual proof.

Answers

Answer:

Proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

General outlineLemma regarding remainders of non-small primes divided by 6Check [tex]p=2[/tex] and [tex]p=3[/tex] directlyProof the rest by contradiction

Lemma

If [tex]p[/tex] is prime such that [tex]p \neq2[/tex] and [tex]p \neq 3[/tex], then [tex]p[/tex] divided by 6 has remainder of 1 or 5.

Case 1: p/6 has remainder 0, 2, or 4.

Then there exists some natural number [tex]n[/tex] such that either [tex]p=6n[/tex], [tex]p=6n+2[/tex], or [tex]p=6n+4[/tex].  However,

if [tex]p=6n[/tex], then [tex]p=2*3n[/tex],if [tex]p=6n+2[/tex], then [tex]p=2*(3n+1)[/tex], and if [tex]p=6n+4[/tex], then [tex]p=2*(3n+2)[/tex].

By definition of divisibility, [tex]p[/tex] is divisible by 2.  Since [tex]p \neq2[/tex], [tex]p[/tex] cannot be prime.  This contradiction implies [tex]p[/tex] cannot have a remainder of 0, 2, or 4 when divided by 6.

Case 2: p/6 has remainder 3.

Then there exists some natural number [tex]n[/tex] such that [tex]p=6n+3[/tex].  However, if [tex]p=6n+3[/tex], then [tex]p=3*(2n+1)[/tex], so [tex]p[/tex] is divisible by 3.  Since [tex]p \neq 3[/tex], [tex]p[/tex] is not prime.  This contradiction implies [tex]p[/tex] cannot have a remainder of 3 when divided by 6.

Therefore, if [tex]p[/tex] is a prime number such that  [tex]p \neq2[/tex] and [tex]p \neq 3[/tex], then when divided by 6, [tex]p[/tex] must have a remainder of 1 or 5.

Main proof of no prime trio with common difference of 70.

Check p=2

Consider [tex]p=2[/tex].  Then [tex]q=2+70=72[/tex].  However, [tex]72=2*36[/tex], so [tex]q[/tex] is not prime.  Hence, [tex]p \neq2[/tex].

Check p=3

Consider [tex]p=3[/tex].  Then [tex]q=3+70=73[/tex], and [tex]r=73+70=143[/tex].  However, [tex]143=11*13[/tex], so [tex]r[/tex] is not prime.  Hence, [tex]p \neq 3[/tex].

So, thus far, we've proven that if there is a prime trio with a common difference of 70, that [tex]p \neq2[/tex] and [tex]p \neq 3[/tex].

Proof of the rest of primes by contradiction

By way of contradiction, assume that there does exist some prime trio [tex]\{ p,q,r \}[/tex] such that [tex]q-p=r-q=70[/tex], and [tex]p \neq2[/tex] and [tex]p \neq 3[/tex].

Then, by the Lemma proven earlier, when [tex]p[/tex] is divided by 6, it must have a remainder of 1 or 5.

Case 1: p/6 has remainder 5

Assume that [tex]p[/tex] has remainder 5 when divided by 6.  Then, there exists some natural number [tex]n[/tex], such that [tex]p=6n+5[/tex].  

[tex]q=p+70\\q=(6n+5)+70\\q=6n+75\\q=3*(2n+25)[/tex]

Since [tex]n[/tex] was a natural number, and the natural numbers are closed over multiplication and addition (meaning, multiplying and adding more natural numbers results in another natural number), then [tex]q[/tex] is divisible by 3.

Since [tex]p[/tex] is prime, [tex]0 < p[/tex], which implies [tex]0+70 < p+70[/tex]

Since [tex]q=p+70[/tex], [tex]70 < q[/tex], so [tex]q[/tex] cannot equal 3.  Since [tex]q[/tex] is divisible by 3, but [tex]q \neq 3[/tex], [tex]q[/tex] is not prime, which is a contradiction to the existence of this prime trio.

Therefore, either [tex]p[/tex] cannot have a remainder of 5 when divided by 6, or the prime trio does not exist.

Case 2: p/6 has remainder 1

Assume that [tex]p[/tex] has remainder 1 when divided by 6.  Then, there exists some natural number [tex]n[/tex], such that [tex]p=6n+1[/tex].  

[tex]q=p+70\\q=(6n+1)+70\\r=q+70\\r=((6n+1)+70)+70\\r=6n+141\\r=3*(2n+47)[/tex]

Since [tex]n[/tex] was a natural number, and the natural numbers are closed over multiplication and addition (meaning, multiplying and adding more natural numbers results in another natural number), [tex]r[/tex] is divisible by 3.

Since [tex]q[/tex] is prime, [tex]0 < q[/tex], implying [tex]0 +70 < q+70[/tex].

Since [tex]r=q+70[/tex], then [tex]70 < r[/tex].  Therefore, [tex]r\neq 3[/tex].

Since [tex]r[/tex] is divisible by 3, but [tex]r\neq 3[/tex], [tex]r[/tex] is not prime, which is a contradiction to the existence of this prime trio (with a common difference of 70).  Therefore, either [tex]p[/tex] cannot have a remainder of 1 when divided by 6, or the prime trio does not exist.

Since [tex]p[/tex] was prime, by our lemma [tex]p[/tex] must have either a remainder of 1 or 5.  Since both remainder possibilities resulted in a contradiction, our contradiction assumption is false, so there cannot exist a prime trio such that their common difference is 70.

A.2r^2+13r-24
B.-2r^2-24r+19
C.-2r^2+19r-24
D.2r^2+19r+24

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

(5r + 8 - 6r)(4 + 2r - 7) ← collect like terms inside each parenthesis

= (8 - r)(2r - 3)

each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor.

8(2r - 3) - r(2r - 3) ← distribute parenthesis

= 16r - 24 - 2r² + 3r ← collect like terms

= - 2r² + 19r - 24

Maria spends ​$19 on lottery tickets every week and spends ​$122 per month on food.On an annual​ basis, the money spent on lottery tickets is ______% of the money spent to buy food.

Answers

The money spent on lottery tickets is 15.6% of the money spent to buy food.

How to determine the proportion?

The given parameters are:

Food = $122

Lottery = $19

The proportion of the lottery tickets is:

Proportion = Lottery/Food * 100%

This gives

Proportion = 19/122* 100%

Evaluate

Proportion = 15.6%

Hence, the money spent on lottery tickets is 15.6% of the money spent to buy food.

What method of matrixes would be used for this question? ( Inverse Matrices, Cramer's Rule, Gaussian Elimination, and Gauss-Jordan Elimination)

John had $24,500 to invest. He divided the money into three different accounts. At the end of the first year he had made a total of $1,300 in interest between the three accounts. If the first account earned 4% interest on its original amount for the year, the second account earned 5.5% interest on its original amount for the year, and the third account earned 6% interest on its original amount for the year. Also, the amount of money in the first account was 4 times the amount in the second account. How much had he originally placed in each account?

Answers

Answer:

The method of matrixes that would be used for this question is Gaussian Elimination.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gaussian Elimination is a method of solving linear equations by transforming them into upper triangular form. In this case, we want to solve for the original amount of money placed in each account, which can be represented by variables x, y, and z. We can set up the equations as follows:

4x + 5.5y + 6z = 1,300

x + y + z = 24,500

4x = y

We can then use Gaussian Elimination to solve for x, y, and z.

Which of the following are geometric sequences?
Check all that apply.
A. 5, 10, 15, 20, 25
B. 10, 5, 2.5, 1.25, 0.625, 0.3125
C. 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13
D. -9, -3, -1, -1/3, -1/9, -1/27

Answers

Answer: B and D

Step-by-step explanation:

A is not, it's an arithmetic sequence where each term is +5 greater than the previous

B is because each term is 1/2 the previous term (common ratio of 1/2) thus making it a geometric sequence

C is not, it's the Fibonnaci sequence which is neither an arithmetic or geometric sequence

D is because each term is 1/3 the previous term (common ratio of 1/3) thus making it a geometric sequence
