Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is "[tex](25.32, 30.68)[/tex]"

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]\bar x = 28\\\\ \sigma = 4\\\\n =26\\\\[/tex]

When [tex]98\%[/tex] confidence level so, the z:

[tex]\alpha = 1 - 98\% = 1 - 0.98 = 0.2\\\\\frac{\alpha}{2} =\frac{0.02}{2} = 0.01\\\\Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}} = Z_{0.01} = 1.645\ \ \ ( Using \ z \ table )\\\\[/tex]

[tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha}{2} \times ( \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})[/tex]  

[tex]= 1.645 \times (\frac{4}{\sqrt{26}})\\\\=2.68[/tex]

When  98% confidence interval estimate of the population mean  is,

[tex]\bar x - E < \mu < \bar x + E\\\\28 - 2.68 < \mu < 28 + 2.68\\\\25.32 < \mu < 30.68\\\\(25.32, 30.68)\\\\[/tex]

Answer:

f(5) = 15

f(5) = 5² - 2(5) = 25 - 10 = 15

y are selling lollipops for $0.50 and candy bars for $1.50.
Lydia buys 6 lollipops and some candy bars.

If she spends $15 in total, how many candy bars, b, did Lydia buy?

Answers

Answer:

b=8

Step-by-step explanation:

You multiply $0.50 by 6 (to get the amount of money she spent on lollipops)=3 then you take the 3 and subtract it from $15 which gives you 12, finally you get 1.50-12 and do that 8 times which means she bought 8 candy bars

Write an inequality for the graph

Answers

The open circle means the inequality will be greater than or equal to (≥) or less than or equal to (≤).
A closed circle means the inequality will be greater than (>) or less than (<)

An arrow pointing right to increasingly positive values means the inequality is getting greater (> or ≥)
A narrowing pointing left to increasingly negative values means the inequality is getting lesser (< or ≤)

So for this graph with an open circle and rightward pointing arrow, “x” will be some number on the number line greater than the first point of -38:
x > -38

Answer:

Perimeter = 56

Area = 196

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the half-length of the sides (a):

a² + a² = (7√2)²2a² = 7² * 22a² = 98a = 7

Half of a side is 7, meaning that the full length is 14.

With that in mind we can calculate the perimeter and area:

Perimeter = 14 * 4 = 56Area = 14² = 196

Can someone answer this please l

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(5a + 18) + (48 - a) + (8a - 30) = 180 (Angles on a straight line)

5a + 18 + 48 - a + 8a - 30 = 180

12a + 36 = 180

12a = 180 - 36

a = 144/12

a = 12

therefore, the first angle is, 78 degree, second angle is 36 degree and third angle is 66 degree.

Therefore, the size of the smallest angle is 36 degree

180=5a+18+48-a+8a-30
144=12a
a=12
The middle angle= 36 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

It is known that screws produced by a certain company will be defective with probability 0.01, independently of each other. The company sells the screws in packages of 10 and offers a money-back guarantee that at most 1 of 10 screws are defective. That is, the package would have to be replaced if greater or equal to 2 screws are defective. What proportion of packages sold must the company replace

Answers

Answer:

The company must replace 0.0042 = 0.42% of packages.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each screw, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of an screw being defective is independent of any other screw. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

It is known that screws produced by a certain company will be defective with probability 0.01.

This means that [tex]p = 0.01[/tex]

The company sells the screws in packages of 10

This means that [tex]n = 10[/tex]

That is, the package would have to be replaced if greater or equal to 2 screws are defective. What proportion of packages sold must the company replace?

This is:

[tex]P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)[/tex]

In which:

[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.01)^{0}.(0.99)^{10} = 0.9044[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.01)^{1}.(0.99)^{9} = 0.0914[/tex]

[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.9044 + 0.0414 = 0.9958[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2) = 1 - 0.9958 = 0.0042[/tex]

The company must replace 0.0042 = 0.42% of packages.

Answer:

52=8n +4

4=52-8n

are equivalent

Answer:

a, b, c, e

Step-by-step explanation:

4(2n + 1) = 52 is the same as 52 = 8n + 4 if you use distributive property.

4 = 52 - 8n is the same as 52 = 8n + 4. The 8n is just subtracted from both sides.

4n = 48 is not the same as 4(2n + 1) = 52 or 52 = 8n + 4 or 4 = 52 - 8n.

n = 6 is the solution to the equation so it is equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:

So remember, 2 opposite sides of a triangle are equivelent.

We know that one of these sides are 3.

So the other side must be 3 as well.

This is 2 of the 4 sides of a rectangle.

If each side is 3, and there are two sides, this means that they add up to 6.

Subtract this from your total permiter:

22-6

Now remember, there are 2 sides left.

To find the answer, divide the 16(permiter left) by the 2(sides left):

Using the shoelace formula (Green’s Theorem) in counterclockwise fashion, the value of x is -8.

What is Shoelace formula ?

Area of Polygon can be calculated using Shoelace formula described by Mathematician and Physicist Carl Friedrich Gauss where polygon vertices are described by their Cartesian coordinates in the Cartesian plane.

A = [tex]\frac{1}{2} |x_{1} y_{2} +x_{2} y_{3}+........x_{n-1}y_{n} +x_{n} y_{1} -x_{2} y_{1} -x_{3} y_{2} - ........-x_{n}y_{n-1}-x_{2}y_{n} |[/tex]

Shoelace formula (Green’s Theorem)

A = [tex]\frac{1}{2} |x_{1} y_{2} +x_{2} y_{3}+........x_{n-1}y_{n} +x_{n} y_{1} -x_{2} y_{1} -x_{3} y_{2} - ........-x_{n}y_{n-1}-x_{2}y_{n} |[/tex]

Where A is the area of the polygon and n is the number of sides of the polygon.

Here A = 6, n = 3, [tex]x_{1}[/tex] = 6, [tex]y_{1}[/tex] = 0, [tex]x_{2}[/tex] = 5, [tex]y_{2}[/tex] = 10, [tex]x_{3}[/tex] = [tex]x[/tex], [tex]y_{3}[/tex] = 20

A = 60 = [tex]\frac{1}{2} |(6.10)+(5.20)+(x.0)-(5.0)-(x.0)-(6.20)|[/tex]

60 = [tex]\frac{1}{2} |60+100-10x-120|[/tex]

60 = [tex]\frac{1}{2} |40-10x|[/tex]

60 = [tex]|20-5x|[/tex]

So 20 - 5x = -60

5x  = 80

x = 16

20 - 5x = 60

5x  = -40

x = -8

since x is a negative value,

we can know x = -8

Hence the value of x is -8.
