Answer:
(5x -6)(5x +6) = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 36 to put the equation in standard form. In this form, it looks like the difference of squares, so can be factored as such.
25x^2 -36 = 0
(5x)^2 -6^2 = 0
(5x -6)(5x +6) = 0
What is the surface area of a hemisphere with a radius 10
Answer:
Maths keeps one mentally active. The total surface of a hemisphere = 3(pi)r^2. So if the radius = 10 cm, then the TSA = 3(pi)r^2 = 300(pi) = 942.8571429 sq cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
hope this helps you :)
Answer:
The total surface of a hemisphere = 3(pi)r^2.
So if the radius = 10 cm, then the TSA = 3(pi)r^2 = 300(pi) = 942.8571429 sq cm.
A consumer affairs investigator records the repair cost for 4 randomly selected TVs. A sample mean of $91.78 and standard deviation of $23.13 are subsequently computed. Determine the 90% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the TVs. Assume the population is approximately normal. Step 1 of 2 : Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.
Answer:
= ( $72.756, $110.804)
Therefore, the 90% confidence interval (a,b) = ( $72.756, $110.804)
Critical value at 90% confidence = 1.645
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.
The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.
x+/-zr/√n
Given that;
Mean x = $91.78
Standard deviation r = $23.13
Number of samples n = 4
Confidence interval = 90%
Using the z table;
z(α=0.05) = 1.645
Critical value at 90% confidence = 1.645
Substituting the values we have;
$91.78+/-1.645($23.13/√4)
$91.78+/-1.645($11.565)
$91.78+/-$19.024425
$91.78+/-$19.024
= ( $72.756, $110.804)
Therefore, the 90% confidence interval (a,b) = ( $72.756, $110.804)

Mr. Azu invested an amount at rate of 12% per annum and invested another amount, 580 ghana cedis more than the first at 14% . if Mr. Azu had total accumulated amount of 2,358.60, how much was his total investment?
Answer:
2082.12 was the total invested
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount invested at 14%. Then the amount invested at 12% was (x-580). The total accumulated amount was ...
112%(x -580) +114%(x) = 2358.60
2.26x -649.60 = 2358.60
2.26x = 3008.20 . . . add 649.60
x = 1331.06 . . . . . . divide by 2.26
x -580 = 751.06
The total invested was 1331.06 +751.06 = 2082.12 cedis.
__
Check
The investment at 12% was 751.06, so the accumulated amount of that investment was 751.06×1.12 = 841.19.
The investment at 14% was 1331.06, so the accumulated amount of that investment as 1331.06×1.14 = 1517.41.
The accumulated total amount was 841.19 +1517.41 = 2358.60.

Solve x-6y = 11 for y
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: y = 11 - x / -6
Step-by-step explanation:
X - 6y = 11
Since we are solving for y, we need to isolate the variable.
Move x to the other side of the equation.
- 6y = 11 - x
Now divide bith sides by -6 to cancel out -6y and get the variable y
-6y/ -6 = 11 - x/ -6
y = 11 - x / -6
Im not sure if it was solving for y, or if it was solve for x if y = 11

3u - 3 = 15
give me a lecture so i can try to do it in the future please
Answer:
u=6
Step-by-step explanation:
One rule in algebra is what you do to one side, you do it to other side. So if you multiply a number in one side, multiply the same number in other side. Here in this question, you are trying to find the value of the variable u. Variable is called so because the value of it varies depending on different question. Here u is going to be a constant number which when multipled by 3 and then subtracted by 3 equals 15.
So first step is we try to get constants on one side. So we add 3 on both sides to get rid of 3 on left.
3u - 3 + 3= 15+3
3u= 18
Now we divide by 3 on both sides to get u by itself.
3u/3 = 18/3
u= 6

How to find a vertical asymptote
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Generally's rational functions that have vertical asymptotes, even trig functions (which, like the tangent function, are often rational).
If the given function is the ratio of two functions, polynomial or otherwise, the graph of the given function has an asymptote at any x value for which the denominator is zero. Example: y = tan x = (sin x) / (cos x) has vertical asysmptotes at π/2, 3π/2, and so on, because the denominator cos x is zero for those angles.
To solve VX +VX-5 = 5 for x, begin with which of these steps?
Answer:
x = 5/v

4x-y+ 2z=-1
Given the system -x+2y + 5z = 2, which is true?
|-x+y-3z= 1
Answer:
Y = 0
X= 1/2
Z = -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
4x-y+ 2z=-1
-x+y-3z= 1
-x+2y + 5z = 2
Solving simultenously
Y= 4x + 2z -1
Y =1+ 3z+ x
Y =x/2 -( 5z/2) - 1
Equating y will give two equations
3x-z = 2
3x + 11z = -4
Subtracting the equations
-12z =6
Z= -1/2
Substituting z
3x +1/2 = 2
3x = 3/2
X= 1/2
Substituting x and z to find y in
-x+y-3z= 1
-1/2 + y +3/2 = 1
Y = 1-1
Y = 0

If (x + k) is a factor of f(x), which of the following must be true?
f(K) = 0
fl-k)=0
A root of f(x) is x = k.
A y intercept of f(x) is x = -k.
Answer:
f(-k)=0Step-by-step explanation:
(x + k) is a factor of f(x)
x+k=0 => x= -k; -k is a root of f(x)
=> f(-k)=0
[tex](x + k) is a factor of f(x)x+k=0 = > x= -k; -k is a root of f(x)= > f(-k)=0[/tex]
So the correct option is B.fl-k)=0.
What is a root function example?
The cube root function is f(x)=3√x f ( x ) = x 3 . A radical function is a function that is defined by a radical expression. The following are examples of rational functions: f(x)=√2x4−5 f ( x ) = 2 x 4 − 5 ; g(x)=3√4x−7 g ( x ) = 4 x − 7 3 ; h(x)=7√−8x2+4 h ( x ) = − 8 x 2 + 4 7 .

At the beginning of an experiment, a scientist has 300 grams of radioactive goo. After 150 minutes, her sample has decayed to 37.5 grams.
What is the half-life of the goo in minutes?
________
Find a formula for
G(t),
the amount of goo remaining at time T.
G= _________
How many grams of goo will remain after 32 minutes?
Answer:
Half-life of the goo is 49.5 minutes
[tex]G(t)= 300e^{-0.014t}[/tex]
191.7 grams of goo will remain after 32 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let [tex]M_0\,,\,M_f[/tex] denotes initial and final mass.
[tex]M_0=300\,\,grams\,,\,M_f=37.5\,\,grams[/tex]
According to exponential decay,
[tex]\ln \left ( \frac{M_f}{M_0} \right )=-kt[/tex]
Here, t denotes time and k denotes decay constant.
[tex]\ln \left ( \frac{M_f}{M_0} \right )=-kt\\\ln \left ( \frac{37.5}{300} \right )=-k(150)\\-2.079=-k(150)\\k=\frac{2.079}{150}=0.014[/tex]
So, half-life of the goo in minutes is calculated as follows:
[tex]\ln \left ( \frac{50}{100} \right )=-kt\\\ln \left ( \frac{50}{100} \right )=-(0.014)t\\t=\frac{-0.693}{-0.014}=49.5\,\,minutes[/tex]
Half-life of the goo is 49.5 minutes
[tex]\ln \left ( \frac{M_f}{M_0} \right )=-kt\Rightarrow M_f=M_0e^{-kt}[/tex]
So,
[tex]G(t)= M_f=M_0e^{-kt}[/tex]
Put [tex]M_0=300\,\,grams\,,\,k=0.014[/tex]
[tex]G(t)= 300e^{-0.014t}[/tex]
Put t = 32 minutes
[tex]G(32)= 300e^{-0.014(32)}=300e^{-0.448}=191.7\,\,grams[/tex]

Assume a simple random sample of 10 BMIs with a standard deviation of 1.186 is selected from a normally distributed population of recent Miss America winners. Use 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the BMI for recent Miss America winners are from a population with standard deviation of 1.34.
A. Identify the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis.
B. Find the critical value or values.
C. Find the test statistic.
D. State the conclusion that addresses the original claim.
Answer:
a) H0: [tex]\sigma = 1.34[/tex]
H1: [tex]\sigma \neq 1.34[/tex]
b) [tex] df = n-1= 10-1=9[/tex]
And the critical values with [tex]\alpha/2=0.005[/tex] on each tail are:
[tex] \chi_{\alpha/2}= 1.735, \chi_{1-\alpha/2}= 23.589[/tex]
c) [tex] t=(10-1) [\frac{1.186}{1.34}]^2 =7.05[/tex]
d) For this case since the critical value is not higher or lower than the critical values we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true deviation is not significantly different from 1.34
Step-by-step explanation:
Information provided
n = 10 sample size
s= 1.186 the sample deviation
[tex]\sigma_o =1.34[/tex] the value that we want to test
[tex]p_v [/tex] represent the p value for the test
t represent the statistic (chi square test)
[tex]\alpha=0.01[/tex] significance level
Part a
On this case we want to test if the true deviation is 1,34 or no, so the system of hypothesis are:
H0: [tex]\sigma = 1.34[/tex]
H1: [tex]\sigma \neq 1.34[/tex]
The statistic is given by:
[tex] t=(n-1) [\frac{s}{\sigma_o}]^2 [/tex]
Part b
The degrees of freedom are given by:
[tex] df = n-1= 10-1=9[/tex]
And the critical values with [tex]\alpha/2=0.005[/tex] on each tail are:
[tex] \chi_{\alpha/2}= 1.735, \chi_{1-\alpha/2}= 23.589[/tex]
Part c
Replacing the info we got:
[tex] t=(10-1) [\frac{1.186}{1.34}]^2 =7.05[/tex]
Part d
For this case since the critical value is not higher or lower than the critical values we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true deviation is not significantly different from 1.34
In ABC, mA = 46, mB = 105, and c = 19.8. Find a to the nearest tenth.
Answer:
a = 29.3785
Step-by-step explanation:
Given ∠A = 46° and ∠B = 105°
we know that ∠A +∠B+∠C = 180°
46° + 105° +∠C = 180°
∠C = 180 - 46 -105
∠ C = 29°
By using sine rule
[tex]\frac{a}{sin A} = \frac{b}{Sin B} = \frac{c}{Sin C} = 2 R[/tex]
[tex]\frac{a}{sin A} = \frac{c}{Sin C}[/tex]
Given ∠A = 46° and ∠ C = 29° and c = 19.8
[tex]\frac{a}{sin 46} = \frac{19.8}{Sin 29}[/tex]
on cross multiplication , we get
[tex]a = \frac{19.8 X sin 46}{Sin 29}[/tex]
a = 29.3785

An urban economist is curious if the distribution in where Oregon residents live is different today than it was in 1990. She observes that today there are approximately 3,109 thousand residents in NW Oregon, 902 thousand residents in SW Oregon, 244 thousand in Central Oregon, and 102 thousand in Eastern Oregon. She knows that in 1990 the breakdown was as follows:
72.7% NW Oregon, 20.7% SW Oregon, 4.8% Central Oregon, and 2.8% Eastern Oregon.
Can she conclude that the distribution in residence is different today at a 0.05 level of significance?
a) Yes, because the p-value = .0009.
b) No, because the p-value = .0009.
c) Yes, because the p-value = .0172.
d) No, because the p-value = .0172.
Answer:
c) Yes, because the p-value = 0.0172
Step-by-step explanation:
The following table is obtained:
Categories Observed(fo) Expected (fe) (fo-fe)²/fe
NW Oregon 3109 4357*0.727=3167.539 1.082
SW Oregon 902 4357*0.207=901.899 0
Central Oregon 244 4357*0.048=209.136 5.812
Eastern Oregon 102 4357*0.028=121.996 3.277
Sum = 4357 4357 10.171
(1) Null and Alternative Hypotheses
The following null and alternative hypotheses need to be tested:
H0:p1=0.727,p2=0.207,p3=0.048,p4=0.028
Ha: Some of the population proportions differ from the values stated in the null hypothesis
This corresponds to a Chi-Square test for Goodness of Fit.
(2) Rejection Region
Based on the information provided, the significance level is α=0.05, the number of degrees of freedom is df=4−1=3, so then the rejection region for this test is R={χ2:χ2>7.815}.
(3) Test Statistics
The Chi-Squared statistic is computed as follows:
[tex]X^2=\sum^n_{i=1}\frac{(O_i-E_i)^2}{y} \\\\= 1.082+0+5.812 +3.277 = 10.171[/tex]
(4) Decision about the null hypothesis
Since it is observed that
[tex]X^2 = 10.171 > X_c^2 = 7.815[/tex]
it is then concluded that the null hypothesis is rejected.
(5) Conclusion
It is concluded that the null hypothesis H_o is rejected. Therefore, there is enough evidence to claim that some of the population proportions differ from those stated in the null hypothesis, at the α=0.05 significance level.

There are 300 raffle tickets.
The prizes are as follows:
First prize - voucher for meal at local restaurant
Second prize - food hamper
Third prize - chocolate cake
4x homemade jams
3x homemade pickles
A prize is won after the first raffle ticket is drawn.
What is the probability of winning a prize when the next ticket is drawn?
Answer: 0.007
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that you have a ticket.
We have 3 prizes, and 300 tickets.
After the first tiket is drawn, someone win a prize, so now we have 299 tikets left and 2 prizes left.
Then, for the next draw, you have p = 1/299 of wining a prize.
If you did not win there, the probability for the third price is p = 1/298 (because there are 2 less tickets now)
Then the probability of winning at least one prize is:
P = 1/299 + 1/298 = 0.007
A $210 suit is marked down by 10%. Find the sale price.
Answer:
sale prices = $252
Step-by-step explanation: 280 - (280 x 10%) = 280 - 28 = $252
Answer:
$189
Step-by-step explanation:
10% of 210 = 21
210 - 21 = 189
A large car insurance company selected samples of single and married male policyholders and recorded the number who made an insurance claim over the preceding three-year period. Single Policyholders Married Policyholders n1 = 450 n2 = 925 # making claim = 67 # making claim = 93 Using alpha = 0.05, determine whether the claim rates are higher for single male policyholders verses married male policyholders. Solve using the p-value approach only.
Answer:
The null hypothesis is rejected.
There is enough evidence to support the claim that rates are higher for single male policyholders verses married male policyholders (P-value = 0.004).
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a hypothesis test for the difference between proportions.
The claim is that rates are higher for single male policyholders verses married male policyholders.
Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:
[tex]H_0: \pi_1-\pi_2=0\\\\H_a:\pi_1-\pi_2> 0[/tex]
The significance level is 0.05.
The sample 1 (single group), of size n1=450 has a proportion of p1=0.1489.
[tex]p_1=X_1/n_1=67/450=0.1489[/tex]
The sample 2 (married group), of size n2=925 has a proportion of p2=0.1005.
[tex]p_2=X_2/n_2=93/925=0.1005[/tex]
The difference between proportions is (p1-p2)=0.0483.
[tex]p_d=p_1-p_2=0.1489-0.1005=0.0483[/tex]
The pooled proportion, needed to calculate the standard error, is:
[tex]p=\dfrac{X_1+X_2}{n_1+n_2}=\dfrac{67.005+93}{450+925}=\dfrac{160}{1375}=0.1164[/tex]
The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:
[tex]s_{p1-p2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_1}+\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_2}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.1164*0.8836}{450}+\dfrac{0.1164*0.8836}{925}}\\\\\\s_{p1-p2}=\sqrt{0.0002+0.0001}=\sqrt{0.0003}=0.0184[/tex]
Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:
[tex]z=\dfrac{p_d-(\pi_1-\pi_2)}{s_{p1-p2}}=\dfrac{0.0483-0}{0.0184}=\dfrac{0.0483}{0.0184}=2.62[/tex]
This test is a right-tailed test, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a z-table):
[tex]P-value=P(z>2.62)=0.004[/tex]
As the P-value (0.004) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the effect is significant.
The null hypothesis is rejected.
There is enough evidence to support the claim that rates are higher for single male policyholders verses married male policyholders.
