Answer:
The critical value is T = 2.2622.
The 95% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Florida is between 1.352 pounds and 4.248 pounds.
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 = 10 - 1 = 9
95% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 9 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.2622, which is the critical value.
The margin of error is:
M = T*s = 2.2622*0.64 = 1.448
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 2.8 - 1.448 = 1.352 pounds
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 2.8 + 1.448 = 4.248 pounds
The 95% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Florida is between 1.352 pounds and 4.248 pounds.

A 50 ft kite string is flying on the beach above an umbrella. You are holding the end
of the string and are 12 feet from the umbrella. How high in the air is the kite flying?
Round to the nearest degree.
Answer:
The height of the kite is 48.54 feet
The angle of elevation is 76.11°
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the height of the kite, we can use the Pythagoras' theorem in the triangle created by the length of the string (hypotenuse), the height of the kite and the distance to the umbrella (catheti).
Then, we have:
50^2 = 12^2 + height^2
height^2 = 2500 - 144
height^2 = 2356
height = 48.54 ft
So the kite is 48.54 feet high in the air.
The angle of elevation can be calculated using the cosine relation:
cos(angle) = 12 / 50
cos(angle) = 0.24
angle = 76.11°
16. Model with Math What must be the sum of
the two remaining numbers, x and y? Write an
equation to show how to find this sum.
Answer:
The sum of the two remaining numbers, x and y = 60
Question:
The question isn't clear enough as some information have been omitted. Let's consider the following:
Model with Math. The average of six numbers is 18. If the average of four numbers is 12. What must be the sum of the two remaining numbers, x and y?
Write an equation to show how to find this sum.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mathematical models are applied to represent things in the real world in order to solve problems.
The formula we would use to solve this problem is an example of a mathematical model.
Types of mathematical model we can use include equations and graphs.
Using equations:
Average of six numbers = 18
Average of four of the numbers = 12
Total sum of the four numbers = 4×12 = 48
the two unknown numbers are x and y
Average of six numbers = (Sum of all 6 numbers)/6
=(Total sum of four numbers + x + y)/6
(48 + x + y)/6 = 18
The equation that shows how to find the sum:
(1/6)(48 + x + y) = 18
48 + x + y = 18×6
48 + x + y = 108
x + y = 108-48
x+y = 60
The sum of the two remaining numbers, x and y = 60
Let A be an n # n matrix, b be a nonzero vector, and x0 be a solution vector of the system Ax D b. Show that x is a solution of the nonhomogeneous system Ax D b if and only if y D x!x0 is a solution of the homogeneous system Ay D 0.
Complete Question
Let A be an n x n matrix, b be a nonzero vector, and x_0 be a solution vector of the system Ax = b. Show that x is a solution of the non-homogeneous system Ax = b if and only if y = x - x_0 is a solution of the homogeneous system Ay = 0.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
A is an n × n matrix
b is a zero vector
[tex]x_o[/tex] us the solution vector of [tex]Ax = b[/tex]
Which implies that
[tex]Ax_o = b[/tex]
So first we show that
if [tex]x[/tex] is the solution matrix of [tex]Ax = b[/tex]
and [tex]y= x-x_o[/tex] is the solution of [tex]Ay = 0[/tex]
Then
[tex]A(x-x_o) = 0[/tex]
=> [tex]Ax -Ax_o = 0[/tex]
=> [tex]b-b = 0[/tex]
Secondly to show that
if [tex]y= x-x_o[/tex] is the solution of [tex]Ay =0[/tex]
then x is the solution of the non-homogeneous system
[tex]Ax = b[/tex]
Now we know that [tex]y = x-x_o[/tex] is the solution of [tex]Ay =0[/tex]
So
[tex]Ay = 0[/tex]
=> [tex]A(x- x_o) = 0[/tex]
=> [tex]Ax - Ax_o = 0[/tex]
=> [tex]Ax - b = 0[/tex]
=> [tex]Ax = b[/tex]
Thus this has been proved

Answer: F.) 7 triangles
Step-by-step explanation:
Congruent means completely equal in side lengths and angles. Think of this weird figure like 4 triangles that are see through and are covering a diamond underneath
Of those 4 "see through triangles", there are 3 equal to ΔABC
Now on the diamond underneath, there is another 4. Its hard to actually explain what I mean, but take two triangles from that dimaond. Theyre gonna be congruent to ΔABC.
That's 4 + 3 = 7 total triangles
What is the solution to this equation?
10x - 3(x- 6) = x + 30
O A. x = 8
O B. x = 2
C. X= 4
[tex]answer \\ 2\\ solution \\ 10x - 3(x - 6) = x + 30 \\ or \: 10x - 3x + 18 = x + 30 \\ or \: 10x - 3x - x = 30 - 18 \\ or \: 7x - x = 12 \\ or \: 6x = 12 \\ or \: x = \frac{12}{6} \\ x = 2 \\ hope \: it \: helps[/tex]
Answer:
x=2
Step-by-step explanation:
10x - 3(x- 6) = x + 30
Distribute
10x -3x+18 = x+30
Combine like terms
7x + 18 = x+30
Subtract x from each side
6x+18 = 30
Subtract 18 from each side
6x = 30-18
6x = 12
Divide by 6
6x/6 = 12/6
x =2

A clothing store determines that in order to sell x shirts, the price per shirt should be p(x)=100−x dollars. Getting x shirts from the supplier costs the store C(x)=1,600+20x dollars. If the store’s revenue from selling x shirts is R(x)=x⋅p(x), for what value of x will the store’s cost and revenue be equal?
Answer:
x= -40
Step-by-step explanation:
Cost
C(x)=1,600+20x
P(x)=100-x
Revenue=x*p(x)
=x*(100-x)
=100x-x^2
Cost=Revenue
1600+20x=100x-x^2
1600+20x-100x+x^2=0
1600-80x+x^2=0
Solve using quadratic formula
Formula where
a = 1, b = 80, and c = 1600
x=−b±√b2−4ac/2a
x=−80±√80^2−4(1)(1600) / 2(1)
x=−80±√6400−6400 / 2
x=−80±√0 / 2
The discriminant b^2−4ac=0
so, there is one real root.
x= −80/2
x= -40
According to the Rational Root Theorem, Negative two-fifths is a potential rational root of which function?
f(x) = 4x4 – 7x2 + x + 25
f(x) = 9x4 – 7x2 + x + 10
f(x) = 10x4 – 7x2 + x + 9
f(x) = 25x4 – 7x2 + x + 4
Answer:
Neither expression satisfies the given rational root.Step-by-step explanation:
To find the right answer, we just need to replace the given root in each expression and see which one gives zero.
First expression.[tex]f(x)=4x^{4} -7x^{2} +x+25\\f(-\frac{2}{5})= 4(-\frac{2}{5})^{4} -7(-\frac{2}{5})^{2} +(-\frac{2}{5})+25=\frac{64}{625}-\frac{28}{25} -\frac{2}{5} +25 \approx 23.58[/tex]
Second expression.[tex]f(x)=9x^{4}-7x^{2} +x+10=9(-\frac{2}{5} )^{4} -7(-\frac{2}{5} )^{2} +\frac{2}{5} +10 \approx 9.5[/tex]
Third expression.[tex]f(x)=10x^{4}-7x^{2} +x+9=10(-\frac{2}{5} )^{4} -7(-\frac{2}{5})^{2} +(-\frac{2}{5})+9 \approx 7.7[/tex]
Fourth expression.[tex]f(x)=25x^{4}-7x^{2} +x+4=25(-\frac{2}{5} )^{4} -7(-\frac{2}{5})^{2} +(-\frac{2}{5})+4 \approx 3.12[/tex]
Therefore, neither expression satisfies the given rational root.
Answer:
D. f(x) = 25x^4 - 7x^2 + x + 4.

Suppose U.S. consumers 21 years and older consumed 26.4 gallons of beer and cider per person during 2017. A distributor in Milwaukee believes that beer and cider consumption are higher in that city. A sample of consumers 21 years and older in Milwaukee will be taken, and the sample mean 2017 beer and cider consumption will be used to test the following null and alternative hypotheses:
H0: μ ≤ 26.4
Ha: μ > 26.4
(a) Assume the sample data led to rejection of the null hypothesis. What would be your conclusion about consumption of beer and cider in Milwaukee?
a) Conclude that the population mean annual consumption of beer and cider in Milwaukee is greater than 26.4 gallons and hence lower than throughout the United States.
b) Conclude that the population mean annual consumption of beer and cider in Milwaukee is greater than 26.4 gallons and hence higher than throughout the United States.
c) Conclude that the population mean annual consumption of beer and cider in Milwaukee is less than or equal to 26.4 gallons and hence higher than throughout the United States.
d) Conclude that the population mean annual consumption of beer and cider in Milwaukee is less than or equal to 26.4 gallons and hence lower than throughout the United States.
(b) What is the Type I error in this situation? What are the consequences of making this error?
a) The type I error is rejecting H0 when it is true. This error would claim the consumption in Milwaukee is greater than 26.4 when it is actually less than or equal to 26.4.
b) The type I error is not rejecting H0 when it is true. This error would claim the consumption in Milwaukee is less than or equal to 26.4 when it is actually less than or equal to 26.4.
c) The type I error is not rejecting H0 when it is false. This error would claim the consumption in Milwaukee is less than or equal to 26.4 when it is actually greater than 26.4.
d) The type I error is rejecting H0 when it is false. This error would claim the consumption in Milwaukee is greater than 26.4 when it is actually greater than 26.4.
(c) What is the Type II error in this situation? What are the consequences of making this error?
a) The type II error is accepting H0 when it is true. This error would claim that the population mean annual consumption of beer and cider in Milwaukee is less than or equal to 26.4 gallons when it is less than or equal to 26.4.
b) The type II error is not accepting H0 when it is true. This error would claim that the population mean annual consumption of beer and cider in Milwaukee is greater than 26.4 gallons when it is not.
c) The type II error is accepting H0 when it is false. This error would claim that the population mean annual consumption of beer and cider in Milwaukee is less than or equal to 26.4 gallons when it is not.
d) The type II error is not accepting H0 when it is false. This error would claim that the population mean annual consumption of beer and cider in Milwaukee is greater than 26.4 gallons when it is greater than 26.4.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A. If the null hypothesis was rejected, the conclusion would be
b) Conclude that the population mean annual consumption of beer and cider in Milwaukee is greater than 26.4 gallons and hence higher than throughout the United States.
B. The correct option is
a) The type I error is rejecting H0 when it is true. This error would claim the consumption in Milwaukee is greater than 26.4 when it is actually less than or equal to 26.4.
C. The correct option is
c) The type II error is accepting H0 when it is false. This error would claim that the population mean annual consumption of beer and cider in Milwaukee is less than or equal to 26.4 gallons when it is not.
Which of the following sets would have a graph with an open circle on 5 and a ray pointing right on the number line?
The open circle means we do not include the endpoint, hence the use of a greater than symbol. If we were to include the endpoint, then we'd have greater than or equal to. We can rule out choice B due to this reasoning.
The ray pointing to the right indicates we are talking about x values larger than 5, so we can rule out choice A and conclude the answer is C.

Ariana is a songwriter who collects royalties on her songs whenever they are played in a commercial or a movie. Arians will earn $40 every time one of her songs is played in a commercial and she will earn $110 every time one of her songs is played in a movie. Ariana earned a total of $500 in royalties on 9 commercials and movies. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of commercials and the number of movies on which Arianas songs were played. Define the variables that you use to write the system.
Answer:
Commercials x = 7
Movies y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let commercials = x
Let's movies = y
$40 is for commercials
$110 is for movies.
Commercials plus movies for the Year = 9
She earned total of $500
X+ y = 9..... equation 1
40x + 110y = 500.... Equation 2
Multipling equation one by 40
40x + 40y = 360
Subtracting equation one from equation 2
70y = 140
Y = 2
If y = 2
X + y = 9
X + 2 = 9
X = 9-2
X = 7
For 120 consecutive days, a process engineer has measured the temperature of champagne bottles as they are made ready for serving. Each day, she took a sample of 8 bottles. The average across all 960 bottles (120 days, 8 bottles per day) was 46 degrees Fahrenheit. The standard deviation across all bottles was 0.8 degree.Round your answer to 4 digits after the decimal point if it is not an integer. Do NOT use comma in your numeric answers.Sample size is .Number of samples is .When constructing a x-bar chart:The center line should be .ESD(x-bar) equals .The upper control limit (UCL) should be .The lower control limit (LCL) should be .
Answer:
Center line = 46
UCL = 46.84852
LCL = 45.15148
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Standard deviation = 0.8
Mean, u = 46
Sample size, n= 8
First calculate the estimated standard deviation:
[tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{0.8}{\sqrt{8}} = 0.282843[/tex]
a) The center line, X', would be the average across all components. Here the average across all 960 bottles is 46
Therefore,
[tex] X' = 46 [/tex]
b) The upper control limit, UCL:
UCL = u + 3s
= 46 + 3(0.28284)
= 46 + 0.84852
= 46.84852
c) The upper control limit, LCL:
LCL = u + 3s
= 46 - 3(0.28284)
= 46 - 0.84853
= 45.15148

Which value is an output of the function? –6 –2 4 7
Answer:
-2 is an output of the function.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given table is as follows:
[tex]\left[\begin{array}{cc}{x}&f(x)\\-6&8\\7&3\\4&-5\\3&-2\\-5&12\end{array}\right][/tex]
Here, the values written on the left side of table i.e. values of [tex]x[/tex] are known as the domain values or input values to a function.
The values written on the right side of table i.e. values of [tex]f(x)[/tex] are known as the range values or output values of the function [tex]f(x)[/tex].
Let us consider the pairs of values:
(-6,8) then left side value is of [tex]x[/tex] and right side value is of [tex]f(x)[/tex]
i.e. when [tex]x=-6[/tex], the output value [tex]f(x) =8[/tex].
The same thing applies for all the pairs of values.
similarly for the pair (3,-2):
Left side value is of [tex]x[/tex] and right side value is of [tex]f(x)[/tex]
i.e. when [tex]x=3[/tex], the output value [tex]f(x) =-2[/tex].
So, the answer is:

An automobile manufacturer is concerned about a fault in the braking mechanism of a particular model. The fault can, on rare occasions, cause a catastrophe at high speed. The distribution of the number of cars per year that will experience the catastrophe is a random variable with variance = 5.
a) What is the probability that at most 3 cars per year will experience a catastrophe?
b) What is the probability that more than 1 car per year will experience a catastrophe?
Answer:
(a) Probability that at most 3 cars per year will experience a catastrophe is 0.2650.
(b) Probability that more than 1 car per year will experience a catastrophe is 0.9596.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that the distribution of the number of cars per year that will experience the catastrophe is a Poisson random variable with variance = 5.
Let X = the number of cars per year that will experience the catastrophe
SO, X ~ Poisson([tex]\lambda = 5[/tex])
The probability distribution for Poisson random variable is given by;
[tex]P(X=x) = \frac{e^{-\lambda} \times \lambda^{x} }{x!} ; \text{ where} \text{ x} = 0,1,2,3,...[/tex]
where, [tex]\lambda[/tex] = Poisson parameter = 5 {because variance of Poisson distribution is [tex]\lambda[/tex] only}
(a) Probability that at most 3 cars per year will experience a catastrophe is given by = P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 3)
P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)
= [tex]\frac{e^{-5} \times 5^{0} }{0!} +\frac{e^{-5} \times 5^{1} }{1!} +\frac{e^{-5} \times 5^{2} }{2!} +\frac{e^{-5} \times 5^{3} }{3!}[/tex]
= [tex]e^{-5} +(e^{-5} \times 5) +\frac{e^{-5} \times 25 }{2} +\frac{e^{-5} \times 125}{6}[/tex]
= 0.2650
(b) Probability that more than 1 car per year will experience a catastrophe is given by = P(X > 1)
P(X > 1) = 1 - P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 1)
= 1 - P(X = 0) - P(X = 1)
= [tex]1-\frac{e^{-5} \times 5^{0} }{0!} -\frac{e^{-5} \times 5^{1} }{1!}[/tex]
= 1 - 0.00674 - 0.03369
= 0.9596

A fuel oil tank is an upright cylinder, buried so that its circular top is 8 feet beneath ground level. The tank has a radius of 6 feet and is 18 feet high, although the current oil level is only 12 feet deep. Calculate the work required to pump all of the oil to the surface. Oil weighs 50\, \hbox{lb/ft}^3.
Answer:
1.504×10⁶ ft·lb
Step-by-step explanation:
We understand the top of the oil in the tank is 12 ft below ground level, and the bottom of the tank is 8+18=26 ft below ground level. Then the average depth of the oil is (12+26)/2 = 19 ft below ground level.
The height of the oil in the tank is 26-12=14 ft, so the volume of it is ...
V = πr²h = π(6 ft)²(14 ft) = 504π ft³ ≈ 1583.36 ft³
__
So, the work required to raise that volume of oil to the surface is ...
(1538.36 ft³)(50 lb/ft³)(19 ft) = 1.504×10⁶ ft·lb
