Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First, "boxes of two sizes" means we can assign variables:
Let x = number of large boxes
y = number of small boxes
"There are 115 boxes in all" means x + y = 115 [eq1]
Now, the pounds for each kind of box is:
(pounds per box)*(number of boxes)
So,
pounds for large boxes + pounds for small boxes = 4125 pounds
"the truck is carrying a total of 4125 pounds in boxes"
(50)*(x) + (25)*(y) = 4125 [eq2]
It is important to find two equations so we can solve for two variables.
Solve for one of the variables in eq1 then replace (substitute) the expression for that variable in eq2. Let's solve for x:
x = 115 - y [from eq1]
50(115-y) + 25y = 4125 [from eq2]
5750 - 50y + 25y = 4125 [distribute]
5750 - 25y = 4125
-25y = -1625
y = 65 [divide both sides by (-25)]
There are 65 small boxes.
Put that value into either equation (now, which is easier?) to solve for x:
x = 115 - y
x = 115 - 65
x = 50
There are 50 large boxes.
Check (very important):
Is 50+65 = 115 ? [eq1]
115 = 115 ?yes
Is 50(50) + 25(65) = 4125 ?
2500 + 1625 = 4125 ?
4125 = 4125 ? ye

2x^2 + 3/2x -5
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = x/2 -2
g(x) = 2x^2 +x -3
f(x)+ g(x) = x/2 -2+ 2x^2 +x -3
Combine like terms
= 2x^2 + 3/2x -5
ASAP! GIVING BRAINLIEST! Please read the question THEN answer CORRECTLY! NO guessing. I say no guessing because people usually guess on my questions.
You are given the equation [tex]f(x)=x+6[/tex] and [tex]g(x)=x^4[/tex]. When you combine G(F(x)) your equation would come out as [tex]g(f(x))=x^4(x+6)[/tex]. Once you distribute the equation you will get [tex]g(f(x))=(x+6)^4[/tex]
Therefore you answer choice would be B. [tex](x+6)^4[/tex]

(a) Use a linear approximation to estimate f(0.9) and f(1.1). f(0.9) ≈ f(1.1) ≈ (b) Are your estimates in part (a) too large or too small? Explain. The slopes of the tangent lines are negative, but the tangents are becoming steeper. So the tangent lines lie below the curve f. Thus, the estimates are too large. The slopes of the tangent lines are negative, but the tangents are becoming steeper. So the tangent lines lie below the curve f. Thus, the estimates are too small. The slopes of the tangent lines are positive, but the tangents are becoming less steep. So the tangent lines lie above the curve f. Thus, the estimates are too large. The slopes of the tangent lines are positive, but the tangents are becoming less steep. So the tangent lines lie above the curve f. Thus, the estimates are too small.
Answer:
(Missing part of the question is attached)
[tex]L(x)=2x+3[/tex]
Estimates are too large.
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose the only information we know about the function is:
[tex]f(1)=5[/tex]
where the graph of its derivative is shown in the attachment
(a)If the function [tex]f\\[/tex] is differentiable at point [tex]x=1[/tex] , the tangent line to the graph of [tex]f[/tex] at 1 is given by the equation:
[tex]y=f(1) +f'(1)(x-1)[/tex]
So we call the linear function:
[tex]L(x)=f(1) +f'(1)(x-1)[/tex]
We know the [tex]f(1)=5[/tex] as it is given in the question, and [tex]f'(1)=2[/tex] from the graph attached. Substitute in the equation of [tex]L(x)[/tex].
[tex]L(x)=5+2(x-1)\\L(x)=5+2x-2\\L(x)=2x+3\\[/tex]
(b)At x=1, [tex]f'(x)[/tex] is positive but it is decreasing. However. if we draw the tangent lines, we see that the tangent lines are becoming less steeper, so the tangent lines lie above the curve [tex]f[/tex]. Thus, The estimates are too large.

(A)[tex](150\sqrt{3}-75\pi) $ Square Units[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the Shaded region =Area of Hexagon-Area of the Circle
Area of Hexagon
Length of the shorter Leg = x ft
Side Length of the Hexagon =10 feet
Perimeter of the Hexagon = 10*6 =60 feet
Apothem of the Hexagon (Length of the longer leg)

8b-ab=7a, .subtracted from 3a-9ab+b
Answer: You can't. Read explanation.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can't subtract an expression from an equation. If you said something like subtract 8b-ab+7a from 3a-9ab+b that would work, but not here.
Let's just assume You mean it as 8b-ab-7a, then (3a-9ab+b)-(8b-ab-7a) = -8ab + 10a - 7b.

Assume that the heights of men are normally distributed with a mean of 70.9 inches and a standard deviation of 2.1 inches. If 36 men are randomly selected, find the probability that they have a mean height greater than 71.9 inches. Round to four decimal places.
Answer:
The probability that they have a mean height greater than 71.9 inches
P( x⁻ ≥71.9) = 0.0022
Step-by-step explanation:
Explanation:-
Given mean of the Population μ= 70.9
Standard deviation of the Populationσ = 2.1
Given sample size 'n' =36
let x⁻ be the mean height
given x⁻ =71.9 inches
[tex]Z=\frac{x^{-} -mean}{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]
[tex]Z=\frac{71.9 -70.9}{\frac{2.1}{\sqrt{36} } } = \frac{1}{0.35} = 2.85[/tex]
The probability that they have a mean height greater than 71.9 inches
P( x⁻ ≥71.9) = P(Z ≥ 2.85)
= 1 - P(Z≤ 2.85)
= 1 - ( 0.5 + A(2.85)
= 0.5 - A( 2.85)
= 0.5 - 0.4978
= 0.0022
The probability that they have a mean height greater than 71.9 inches
P( x⁻ ≥71.9) = 0.0022

Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
It is not B because 7x^2 means multiplying the equation by seven. It isn't C because that would move the graph DOWN seven units. And it's not D because when it is in parenthesis like that, it means that it is a horizontal shift, not vertical.
Answer:
A. G(x) = [tex]x^2+7[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
→For the function to shift upwards 7 units, 7 must be added to the function, like so:
G(x) = [tex]x^2+7[/tex]
→F(x) + c (in this case is 7), cases a vertical shift and the function is moved "c," units. The graph would shift downwards if 7 was being subtracted.
This means the correct answer is A.
Suppose 90 geology students measure the mass of an ore sample. Due to human error and limitations in the reliability of the​ balance, not all the readings are equal. The results are found to closely approximate a normal​ curve, with mean 88 g and standard deviation 1 g. Use the symmetry of the normal curve and the empirical rule as needed to estimate the number of students reporting readings between 87 g and 89 g.The number of students reporting readings between 87 g and 89 g is:________
Answer:
The number of students reporting readings between 87 g and 89 g is 61
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean = 88g
Standard deviation = 1g
Percentage of students reporting readings between 87 g and 89 g
87 = 88-1
So 87 is one standard deviation below the mean.
89 = 88+1
So 89 is one standard deviation above the mean.
By the Empirical Rule, 68% of students are reporting readings between 87 g and 89 g.
Out of 90 students:
0.68*90 = 61.2
Rounding to the nearest whole number:
The number of students reporting readings between 87 g and 89 g is 61

g(x) = x2 – 5x + 2.
Answer:
Use the quadratic formula:
a = 1 b= -5 c= 2
x = - -5 +-sqr root (25 - 4 * 1 * 2) / 2 * 1
x = 5 +-sqr root (25 - 8) / 2
x = 5 +- sqr root (17) / 2
x1 = 5 +4.1231056256 / 2
x1 = 4.5615528128
x2 = 5 -4.1231056256 / 2
x2 = 4.5615528128
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the zero product property to find the solutions to the equation x2 – 9 = 16.
x= -3 or x = 3
x= -6 or x = -3
Ox= -5 or x = 5
O x= 7 or x = 1
Answer:
x = ±5
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 – 9 = 16
Add 9 to each side
x^2 – 9+9 = 16+9
x^2 = 25
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(x^2) = ±sqrt(25)
x = ±5
Answer:
[tex]x = 5 \: \: \: or \: \: x = - 5[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] {x}^{2} - 9 = 16 \\ {x}^{2} = 16 + 9 \\ {x}^{2} = 25 \\ x = \sqrt{25} \\ x = 5 \\ x = - 5[/tex]

Someone claims that the breaking strength of their climbing rope is 2,000 psi, with a standard deviation of 10 psi. We think the actual amount is lower than that and want to run the test at an alpha level of 5%. What would our sample size need to be if we want to reject the null hypothesis if the sample mean is at or below 1,997.2956?
Answer:
The sample size must be greater than 37 if we want to reject the null hypothesis.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that someone claims that the breaking strength of their climbing rope is 2,000 psi, with a standard deviation of 10 psi.
Also, we are given a level of significance of 5%.
Let [tex]\mu[/tex] = mean breaking strength of their climbing rope
SO, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] = 2,000 psi {means that the mean breaking strength of their climbing rope is 2,000 psi}
Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] < 2,000 psi {means that the mean breaking strength of their climbing rope is lower than 2,000 psi}
Now, the test statistics that we will use here is One-sample z-test statistics as we know about population standard deviation;
T.S. = [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = ample mean strength = 1,997.2956 psi
[tex]\sigma[/tex] = population standard devaition = 10 psi
n = sample size
Now, at the 5% level of significance, the z table gives a critical value of -1.645 for the left-tailed test.
So, to reject our null hypothesis our test statistics must be less than -1.645 as only then we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis.
SO, T.S. < -1.645 {then reject null hypothesis}
[tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } < -1.645[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1,997.2956-2,000}{\frac{10}{\sqrt{n} } } < -1.645[/tex]
[tex](\frac{1,997.2956-2,000}{10}) \times {\sqrt{n} } } < -1.645[/tex]
[tex]-0.27044 \times \sqrt{n}< -1.645[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n}> \frac{-1.645}{-0.27044}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n}>6.083[/tex]
n > 36.99 ≈ 37.
SO, the sample size must be greater than 37 if we want to reject the null hypothesis.

Some have argued that throwing darts at the stock pages to decide which companies to invest in could be a successful stock-picking strategy. Suppose a researcher decides to test this theory and randomly chooses 250 companies to invest in. After 1 year, 135 of the companies were considered winners; that is, they outperformed other companies in the same investment class. To assess whether the dart-picking strategy resulted in a majority of winners, the researcher tested Upper H 0: pequals0.5 versus Upper H 1: pgreater than0.5 and obtained a P-value of 0.1030. Explain what this P-value means and write a conclusion for the researcher.
Answer:
The calculated value Z = 1.2903 < 1.96 at 0.05 level of significance
Null hypothesis is accepted at 0.05 level of significance
The population proportion is equal to 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Step (i):-
Given random sample size ' n' = 250
Sample proportion 'p'
[tex]p= \frac{x}{n} = \frac{135}{250} = 0.54[/tex]
Given Population proportion P = 0.5
Q = 1-P = 1-0.5 =0.5
Null Hypothesis : H₀ : P = 0.5
Alternative Hypothesis : H₁ : P≥ 0.5
Step(ii):-
Test statistic
[tex]Z = \frac{p - P}{\sqrt{\frac{PQ}{n} } }[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{0.54-0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5 X 0.5}{250} } }[/tex]
Z = 1.2903
Level of significance α = 0.05
Z₀.₀₅ = 1.96
The calculated value Z = 1.2903 < 1.96 at 0.05 level of significance
Null hypothesis is accepted at 0.05 level of significance
Step(iii):-
P- value
The probability of test statistic
P(Z > 1.2903) = 0.5 - A ( 1.2903)
= 0.5 - 0.4015
= 0.0985≅ 0.10
i) P- value =0.10 > α = 0.05
null hypothesis is accepted
Conclusion:-
The population proportion is equal to 0.5
The notation f:S→T denotes that f is a function, also called a map , defined on all of a set S and whose outputs lie in a set T . A function f:S→T is injective if for all x,y∈S , f(x)=f(y) implies that x=y . Alternatively: a function is injective if we can uniquely recover some input x based on an output f(x) . What functions are injective?
Answer:
There are many. Two examples are
[tex]f(x) = x, \\f(x) = x^3[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
There are many examples. The simplest is
1 -
[tex]f(x) = x[/tex]
It is trivial that
[tex]\text{if \,\,\,\,} f(x) = f(y) \,\,\,\,\,\text{then} \,\,\,\,\, x=y[/tex]
2 -
[tex]f(x) = x^3[/tex]
That function is injective as well.
[tex]\text{if \,\,\,\,} x^3 = y^3 \,\,\,\,\,\text{then} \,\,\,\,\, x=y[/tex]
An example of a function that is NOT injective is
[tex]f(x) = x^2[/tex]
Notice that
[tex]f(-2) = (-2)^2 = 2^2 = 4[/tex]
A rocket moves through outer space at 10,500 m/s. At this rate how much time would be required to travel the distance from Earth to the moon, which is 380,000 km?
Answer:
The answer is around 27.63 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
1 km equals 1000 meters so we have to multiply 10,500 and 1,000 which would equal 10,500,000 km. 10,500,000 divided by 380,000 which is around 27.63 seconds.
Mo has some red and green sweets He eats 1/3 of the sweets ¾ of the sweets left over are green Mo buys himself 30 more green sweets. There are now 162 green sweets. How many sweets did Mo start with?
Answer:
176 sweets
Step-by-step explanation:
162 - 30 = 132 this finds the 3/4 before he purchased more sweets.
132 divided by 3 = 44 This finds how many thirds their are. (We do 3 not 4 because 1/4 is already gone and there are only 3rds lefts.)
44 x 4 = 176 This finds the total before he purchased more.

Of the mathematics degrees awarded in recent years, 76% were bachelor’s degrees, 21% were master’s degrees and the remaining 3% were doctorates. Moreover, women earned 52% of bachelors, 40% of masters and 22% of doctorates. What is the probability that a randomly chosen mathematics degree was a master's degree given that it was awarded to a woman? Give your answer to 4 decimal places.
Answer:
0.1729 = 17.29% probability that a randomly chosen mathematics degree was a master's degree given that it was awarded to a woman
Step-by-step explanation:
Bayes Theorem:
Two events, A and B.
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(B)*P(A|B)}{P(A)}[/tex]
In which P(B|A) is the probability of B happening when A has happened and P(A|B) is the probability of A happening when B has happened.
In this question:
Event A: Given to a woman.
Event B: Masters degree.
21% were master’s degrees
This means that [tex]P(B) = 0.21[/tex]
Women earned 40% of masters
This means that [tex]P(A|B) = 0.4[/tex]
Probability of the degree being given to a women:
52% of 76%, 40% of 21% and 22% of 3%. So
[tex]P(A) = 0.52*0.76 + 0.4*0.21 + 0.22*0.03 = 0.4858[/tex]
What is the probability that a randomly chosen mathematics degree was a master's degree given that it was awarded to a woman?
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{0.21*0.4}{0.4858} = 0.1729[/tex]
0.1729 = 17.29% probability that a randomly chosen mathematics degree was a master's degree given that it was awarded to a woman

A gun mass of 5 kg fired a bullet of mass 10 g with the velocity of 360 km/h. What
is gun’s velocity of pushing behind?
answer fast please
Answer:
The recoil velocity of the gun is [tex]0.72\,\,\frac{km}{h}[/tex] and is pointing in opposite direction to the velocity of the bullet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Use conservation of linear momentum, which states that the momentum of the bullet (product of the bullet's mass times its speed) should equal in absolute value the momentum of the recoiling gun (its mass times its recoil velocity).
We also write the mass of the bullet in the same units as the mass of the gun (for example kilograms). Mass of the bullet = 0.010 kg
In mathematical terms, we have:
[tex]5\, kg * v= 0.01 \,kg\,* 360\,\frac{km}{h} \\v=\frac{0.01\,*360}{5} \,\,\frac{km}{h}\\v=0.72\,\,\frac{km}{h}[/tex]

And so on, so that the nth term in the sequence is multiplied by n/(n + 1) to get the (n + 1)th term.
Recursively, the sequence is given by
[tex]\begin{cases}a_1=2\\a_n=\dfrac{n-1}na_{n-1}&\text{for }n>1\end{cases}[/tex]
We can solve this exactly by iterating:
[tex]a_n=\dfrac{n-1}na_{n-1}=\dfrac{n-1}n\dfrac{n-2}na_{n-1}=\dfrac{n-1}n\dfrac{n-2}{n-1}\dfrac{n-3}{n-2}a_{n-3}=\cdots[/tex]
and so on down to
[tex]a_n=\dfrac{(n-1)\cdot(n-2)\cdot(n-3)\cdot\cdots\cdot3\cdot2\cdot1}{n\cdot(n-1)\cdot(n-2)\cdot\cdots\cdot4\cdot3\cdot2}a_1[/tex]
or
[tex]a_n=\dfrac{(n-1)!}{n!}a_1[/tex]
and with lots of cancellation, we end up with
[tex]a_n=\dfrac{a_1}n=\boxed{\dfrac2n}[/tex]
