The intensity of cosmic ray radiation decreases rapidly with increasing energy, but there are occasionally extremely energetic cosmic rays that create a shower of radiation from all the particles they create by striking a nucleus in the atmosphere as seen in the figure given below. Suppose a cosmic ray particle having an energy of converts its energy into particles with masses averaging .
(a) How many particles are created?
(b) If the particles rain down on a area, how many particles are there per square meter?
Answer:
(a) 5* 10¹⁰ (b) 5* 10⁴ particles / m²
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution
(a) We find the number of particles that is created
Now,
The energy will change into particles of masses that is averaging 200 MeV/c²
The number of particles that were created is stated as follows:
n = Ec/Er
Ec =This is the cosmic energy
Er =The rest mass energy
Thus, we replace 10¹⁰ with Ec and (0.200 GeV/c²)c² for Er
This gives us the following:
n = 10¹⁰ GeV/ (0.200 GeV/c²)c²
= 5* 10¹⁰
Hence the number of particle created is 5* 10¹⁰
(b) We now find how many particles are there per square meter
Thus,
n/m² = 5* 10¹⁰ particles/(1000 m)²
= 5* 10⁴ particles / m²
Hence, the particles that are there per square meter is 5* 10⁴ particles / m²

solve for y
pleaseee
Answer:
-The value of [tex]y[/tex]:
[tex]y = 1[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
-Find the value of [tex]y[/tex]:
[tex]11- 9y = -6y + 8[/tex]
-Add both sides by [tex]6y[/tex] and combine [tex]9y[/tex] and [tex]6y[/tex] together:
[tex]11- 9y + 6y = -6y + 6y+ 8[/tex]
[tex]11 - 3y = 8[/tex]
-Subtract both sides by [tex]11[/tex]:
[tex]11 - 11 - 3y = 8 -11[/tex]
[tex]-3y = -3[/tex]
-Divide both sides by [tex]-3[/tex]:
[tex]\frac{-3y}{-3} = \frac{-3}{-3}[/tex]
[tex]y = 1[/tex]
So the final answer is [tex]y = 1[/tex] .
Here is a solid square-based pyramid.
The base of the pyramid is a square of side 12cm.
The height of the pyramid is 8cm.
X is the midpoint of QR and XT = 10cm.
A) Draw the front elevation of the pyramid from the direction of the arrow. Use a scale of 1 square to 1cm.
B) Work out the total surface area of the pyramid.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A. The front elevation of the pyramid in the direction of the arrow is herewith attached to this answer.
B. Base of the pyramid is a square of side 12 cm.
The height of the pyramid is 8 cm.
Slant height, XT, is 10 cm.
The total surface area of the pyramid can be determined by adding the surface areas that make up the shape.
Area of the triangular face = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × base × slant height
= [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 12 × 10
= 60 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]
Area of the square base = length × length
= 12 × 12
= 144 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]
Total surface area of the pyramid = area of the base + 4 (area of the triangular face)
= 144 + 4(60)
= 144 + 240
= 384 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]
Therefore, total surface area of the pyramid is 384 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:
[2+ (4-2)+8²]-[2-(-1)][2+2+64]-[2-(-1)]²68-3²68-959g Brian Vanecek, VP of Operations at Portland Trust Bank, is evaluating the service level provided to walk-in customers. Accordingly, his staff recorded the waiting times for 64 randomly selected walk-in customers, and determined that their mean waiting time was 15 minutes and that the standard deviation was 4 minutes. The 88% confidence interval for the population mean of waiting times is __________.
Answer:
The 88% confidence interval for the population mean of waiting times is between 7.34 minutes and 22.66 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, so we use the t-distribution to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 64 - 1 = 63
88% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 63 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.88}{2} = 0.94[/tex]. So we have T = 1.9153
The margin of error is:
M = T*s = 1.9153*4 = 7.66.
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 15 - 7.66 = 7.34 minutes
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 15 + 7.66 = 22.66 minutes.
The 88% confidence interval for the population mean of waiting times is between 7.34 minutes and 22.66 minutes.

Determine whether the underlined number is a statistic or a parameter. In a study of all 1963 employees at a college, it is found that "40%" own a computer. Choose the correct statement below.
1. Parameter because the value is a numerical measurement describing a characteristic of a population
2. Statistic because the value is a numerical measurement describing a characteristic of a population
3. Statistic because the value is a numerical measurement describing a characteristic of a sample.
4. Parameter because the value is a numerical measurement describing a characteristic of a sample.
Answer:
1. Parameter because the value is a numerical measurement describing a characteristic of a population
Step-by-step explanation:
A parameter is a fixed measure which describes the whole population while a statistic is a characteristic of a sample (which is a portion of the target population).
In a study of all 1963 employees at a college, it is found that "40%" own a computer.
The study involved the entire population of employees in the college, therefore the result describes the computer owning characteristics of the whole population under study. It is therefore a parameter.
The correct option is 1.
The probability that a randomly chosen sales prospect will make a purchase is 20%. What is the probability (to three decimal places) that the salesperson will make four or more sales if six sales calls are made on a given day
Answer:
1.7%
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to calculate the probability that the salesperson will make four or more sales if six sales calls are made on a given day, that is:
P (x => 4)
Therefore, we must calculate when x = 4, when x = 5, and when x = 6 and add. p = 0.2, n = 6
P (x = r) = nCr * p ^ r * (1 - p) ^ (n-r)
Also, nCr = n! / (r! * (n-r) !, now replacing:
P (x = 4) = 6! / (4! * (6-4)! * 0.20 ^ 4 * 0.80 ^ (6-4)
P (x = 4) = 15 * 0.001024 = 0.01536
P (x = 5) = 6! / (5! * (6-5)! * 0.20 ^ 5 * 0.80 ^ (6-5)
P (x = 5) = 6 * 0.000256 = 0.001536
P (x = 6) = 6! / (6! * (6-6)! * 0.20 ^ 6 * 0.80 ^ (6-6)
P (x = 6) = 1 * 0.000064 = 0.000064
now,
P (x => 4) = P (x = 4) + P (x = 5) + P (x = 6)
P (x => 4) = 0.01536) + 0.001536 + 0.000064
P (x => 4) = 0.01696 = 0.017
It means that the probability is 1.7%

The Gleason family has a monthly budget of $4,500. Mr. Gleason has a full-time job and takes home $900 each week. Mrs. Gleason works part time and brings home $9 each week. For every hour she works. How many hours per month must Mrs. Gleason work to make sure that she and Mr. Gleason have met their monthly budget?
Answer:
The value of x from the equation is 100. Thus, Mrs. Gleason should work for 100 hours per month.
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer this item, we let x be the number of hours per month that Mrs. Gleason should work. The total budget is equal to sum of the amount acquired by Mr. Gleason and Mrs. Gleason. The equation that would express this is,
4,500 = 900(4) + 9x
The value of x from the equation is 100. Thus, Mrs. Gleason should work for 100 hours per month.

Point R has coordinates (-5, -7) and point T has coordinates (3,-3).
Which point is located 1/4 of the distance from point R to point T?
Enter x-coordinate of the point here .......
and the y-
coordinate of the point here....
Answer:
(x, y) = (-3, -6)
Step-by-step explanation:
The (x, y) distance from R to T is ...
(Δx, Δy) = T - R = (3, -3) -(-5, -7) = (3 -(-5), -3 -(-7)) = (8, 4)
Then 1/4 of the distance is ...
(Δx, Δy)/4 = (8, 4)/4 = (2, 1)
This is added to the R coordinates to find the desired point:
point = R +(2, 1) = (-5, -7) +(2, 1) = (-5+2, -7+1) = (-3, -6)
The coordinates are ...
x-coordinate: -3
y-coordinate: -6
I would like to purchase 20 products at a cost of $65 per product. What would be my total with 3.5 sales tax
Answer:
Answer:
The total is: $ 1345.5
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that:
I would like to purchase 20 products at a cost 65.00 per product.
This means that the cost of 20 products will be:
Also, there is a sales tax of 3.5%
This means that a person has to pay a extra 3.5% on the total cost of the items he purchased.
i.e. he need to pay 3/5% on $ 1300
This means that the amount of tax he need to pay is: 3.5% of 1300
= 3.5%×1300
= 0.035×1300
= $ 45.5.
Hence, the total cost is: $ 1300+$ 45.5
This means that the total cost is: $ 134.5
Environmental Protection Agency standards require that the amount of lead in drinking water be less than 15 ppb. Twelve samples of water from a particular source have the following concentrations, in ppb. 11.4 13.9 11.2 14.5 15.2 8.1 12.4 8.6 10.5 17.1 9.8 15.9 A hypothesis test will be performed to determine whether the water from this source meets the EPA standard.
Required:
a. State the appropriate null and alternate hypotheses.
b. Compute the P-value.
c. Can you conclude that the water from this source meets the EPA standard? Explain.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean = (11.4 + 13.9 + 11.2 + 14.5 + 15.2 + 8.1 + 12.4 + 8.6 + 10.5 + 17.1 + 9.8 + 15.9)/12 = 12.4
Standard deviation = √(summation(x - mean)²/n
n = 12
Summation(x - mean)² = (11.4 - 12.4)^2 + (13.9 - 12.4)^2 + (11.2 - 12.4)^2+ (14.5 - 12.4)^2 + (15.2 - 12.4)^2 + (8.1 - 12.4)^2 + (12.4 - 12.4)^2 + (8.6 - 12.4)^2 + (10.5 - 12.4)^2 + (17.1 - 12.4)^2 + (9.8 - 12.4)^2 + (15.1 - 12.4)^2 = 89.62
Standard deviation = √(89.62/13) = 2.7
We would set up the hypothesis test. This is a test of a single population mean since we are dealing with mean
a) For the null hypothesis,
µ ≤ 15
For the alternative hypothesis,
µ > 15
This is a right tailed test
b) Since the number of samples is small and no population standard deviation is given, the distribution is a student's t.
Since n = 12,
Degrees of freedom, df = n - 1 = 12 - 1 = 11
t = (x - µ)/(s/√n)
Where
x = sample mean = 12.4
µ = population mean = 15
s = samples standard deviation = 2.7
t = (12.4 - 15)/(2.7/√12) = - 3.34
We would determine the p value using the t test calculator. It becomes
p = 0.0034
c) Assuming level of significance = 0.05.
Since alpha, 0.05 > than the p value, 0.0034, then we would reject the null hypothesis. Therefore, At a 5% level of significance, we can conclude that the water from this source does meets the EPA standard. They are higher than 15ppb
Using the t-distribution, we have that:
a)
The null hypothesis is: [tex]H_0: \mu \geq 15[/tex]
The alternative hypothesis is: [tex]H_1: \mu < 15[/tex]
b) The p-value is of 0.0051.
c) Since the p-value is of 0.0051, which is less than the standard significance level of 0.0051, it can be concluded that the mean is less than 15 ppb, and thus, this source meets the EPA standard.
Item a:
At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the mean is of at least 15 ppb, that is:
[tex]H_0: \mu \geq 15[/tex]
At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the mean is of less than 15 ppb, that is:
[tex]H_1: \mu < 15[/tex]
Item b:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, thus, the t-distribution is used. The test statistic is given by:
[tex]t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
The parameters are:
[tex]\overline{x}[/tex] is the sample mean. [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis. s is the standard deviation of the sample. n is the sample size.In this problem, we have that [tex]\mu = 15, n = 12[/tex]. Additionally, using a calculator, the other parameters are: [tex]\overline{x} = 12.38, s = 2.93[/tex]
Hence, the value of the test statistic is:
[tex]t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{12.38 - 15}{\frac{2.93}{\sqrt{12}}}[/tex]
[tex]t = -3.1[/tex]
The p-value is found using a left-tailed test, as we are testing if the mean is less than a value, with t = -3.1 and 12 - 1 = 11 df.
Using a calculator, this p-value is of 0.0051.Item c:
Since the p-value is of 0.0051, which is less than the standard significance level of 0.0051, it can be concluded that the mean is less than 15 ppb, and thus, this source meets the EPA standard.
