Suppose you would like to save P9000 invested at 8% compounded quarterly for 5 years and 6 months. (Note: Round off your answer to the nearest hundredth) (a) How much would the value of her savings at the end of the term? Answer (b) How much is the interest earned by your savings? Answer

Answers

Answer:

a) 13913

b) 4913.82

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound interest formula is given by:

[tex]A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]

Where A(t) is the amount of money after t years, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per year and t is the time in years for which the money is invested or borrowed.

In this question:

Investment of 9000, so [tex]P = 9000[/tex]

Interest rate of 8%, so [tex]r = 0.08[/tex]

Compounded quarterly, so [tex]n = 4[/tex]

5 years and 6 months, that is, 5 years and half, so [tex]t = 5.5[/tex]

(a) How much would the value of her savings at the end of the term?

[tex]A(t) = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]

[tex]A(5.5) = 9000(1 + \frac{0.08}{4})^{4*5.5} = 13913.82[/tex]

(b) How much is the interest earned by your savings?

The amount subtracted by the principal. So

13913.82 - 9000 = 4913.82

g Using a calculator, find the actual error in measuring volume if the radius was really 6.5 cm instead of 6 cm, and find the actual error if the radius was actually 5.5 cm instead of 6 cm. Compare these errors to the answer you got using differentials

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "[tex]58.625 cm^3[/tex]"

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the cube volume of x =6 cm.

Substitute x = 6 cm in the volume

[tex]V= x^3\\\\ V = (6)^3\\\\ V = 216[/tex]

Therefore, whenever the cube volume

[tex]x=6 \ cm \ is \ V= 216 \ cm^3[/tex]

Then consider the cube's volume

x = 6.5 cm.

Substitute x = 6.5 cm in the volume

[tex]V_1 = x^3\\V_1 = (6.5)^3\\V_1 = 274.625 \\[/tex]   by using the calculator.

Therefore, when another cube volume

[tex]x = 6.5 cm \\\\ V_1 = 274.625 cm^3.[/tex]

The real volume error x = 6.5 cm instead of x = 6 cm is calculated as,

[tex]dV= V_1-V\\[/tex]

     [tex]=274.625-216\\=58.625\\[/tex]

Hence, the actual error in the volume when x = 6.5 cm instead of x = 6 cm is [tex]58.625 \ cm^3.[/tex]

A study was conducted to determine how bacteria cells multiply over time in a controlled environment. In the study, the bacteria cells were counted once every hour for a total of 6 hours. which one is indepedent variable and dependent varible?

Answers

Answer:

Dependent variable → bacteria cell increase or population

Independent variable → time variable

Step-by-step explanation:

An independent variable has direct effect on the dependent variable. The independent variable can stand on it own and it is not change by the other variable you are trying to measure. The independent variable have direct effect on the dependent variable.

A dependent variable is actually the variable being tested in an experiment. The dependent variable is actually dependent on the independent variable.

The dependent variable in this scenario is the bacteria cell increase or the bacteria cell multiplication.  The bacteria cell increase is dependent on the time . The time variable is the independent  variable as it can stand on it own .

Dependent variable → bacteria cell increase or population

Independent variable → time variable

On day two of a study on body temperatures, 106 temperatures were taken. Suppose that we only have the first 10 temperatures to work with. The mean and standard deviation of these 10 temperatures were 98.44oF and 0.30oF, respectively. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean of all body temperatures.

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the mean of all body temperatures is between 97.76 ºF and 99.12 ºF

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

The margin of error is:

M = T*s = 2.2622*0.3 = 0.68

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 98.44 - 0.68 = 97.76 ºF

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 98.44 + 0.68 = 99.12 ºF

The 95% confidence interval for the mean of all body temperatures is between 97.76 ºF and 99.12 ºF

DuraBurn claims that the mean lifetime of its SuperGlo light bulbs is 904 hours. A researcher wants to perform a hypothesis test to determine whether the mean lifetime is actually less than this. A random sample of 10 DuraBurn SuperGlo bulbs exhibited an average lifetime x-805 hours with a standard deviation s 158 hours. Using the hypotheses H0: μ = 904 vs Ha: μ < 904, find the P-value and state your conclusion. Use a significance level of 0.05.
1. P-value 0.039, there is not sufficient evidence to conclude the mean lifetime of its SuperGlo light bulbs is less than 904 hours
2. P-value 0.039, there is sufficient evidence to conclude the mean lifetime of its SuperGlo light bulbs is less than 904 hours.
3. P-value 0.079, there is not sufficient evidence to conclude the mean lifetime of its SuperGlo light bulbs is less than 904 hours.
4. P-value0.079, there is sufficient evidence to conclude the mean lifetime of its SuperGlo light bulbs is less than 904 hours

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We would set up the hypothesis test. This is a test of a single population mean since we are dealing with mean

For the null hypothesis,

H0: μ = 904

For the alternative hypothesis,

Ha: μ < 904

This is a left tailed test

Since the number of samples is small and no population standard deviation is given, the distribution is a student's t.

Since n = 10,

Degrees of freedom, df = n - 1 = 10 - 1 = 9

t = (x - µ)/(s/√n)

Where

x = sample mean = 805

µ = population mean = 904

s = samples standard deviation = 158

t = (805 - 904)/(158/√10) = - 1.98

We would determine the p value using the t test calculator. It becomes

p = 0.039

Since alpha, 0.05 > than the p value, 0.03953, then we would reject the null hypothesis. Therefore, the correct option is:

2. P-value 0.039, there is sufficient evidence to conclude the mean lifetime of its SuperGlo light bulbs is less than 904 hours.

An animal shelter has a 65% adoption rate for puppies. Of all puppies in the shelter, 75% live to be 7 years or older. Of the puppies who are adopted, 80% live to be 7 years or older. What is the probability that a randomly selected puppy in the shelter will get adopted and live 7 or more years

Answers

Answer:

52% probability that a randomly selected puppy in the shelter will get adopted and live 7 or more years

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: A puppy is adopted.

Event B: The puppy lives 7 or more years.

An animal shelter has a 65% adoption rate for puppies

This means that [tex]P(A) = 0.65[/tex]

Of the puppies who are adopted, 80% live to be 7 years or older.

This means that [tex]P(B|A) = 0.8[/tex]

What is the probability that a randomly selected puppy in the shelter will get adopted and live 7 or more years

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(A)*P(B|A)[/tex]

[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.65*0.8[/tex]

[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.52[/tex]

52% probability that a randomly selected puppy in the shelter will get adopted and live 7 or more years

The PIN is 4829

Step-by-step explanation:

(2) b+c=10

(3) d=b+1

(4) a+b+c+d=23

from (2) c = 10 - b

from (3) d = b + 1

so (4) gives

b/2 + b + 10 - b + b +1 = 23

so

3/2 b = 23 -11 = 12

b = 12*2/3 = 8

so d = 9

c = 10-8=2

and a = 4

g A cannonball is shot with an initial speed of 62 meters per second at a launch angle of 25 degrees toward a castle wall that is 260 meters away. If the wall is 20 meters tall, how high off the ground will the cannonball hit

Answers

Answer:

h = 16.23 m

The cannonball will hit the wall at 16.23m from the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Initial speed v = 62m/s

Angle ∅ = 25°

Horizontal distance d = 260 m

Height of wall y = 20

Resolving the initial speed to vertical and horizontal components;

Horizontal vx = vcos∅ = 62cos25°

Vertical vy = vsin∅ = 62cos25°

The time taken for the cannon ball to reach the wall is;

Time t = horizontal distance/horizontal speed

t = d/vx (since horizontal speed is constant)

t = 260/(62cos25°)

t = 4.627 seconds.

Applying the equation of motion;

The height of the cannonball at time t is;

h = (vy)t - 0.5gt^2

Acceleration due to gravity g = 9.81 m/s

Substituting the given values;

h = 62sin25×4.627 - 0.5×9.81×4.627^2

h = 16.2264134736

h = 16.23 m

The cannonball will hit the wall at 16.23m from the ground.

A company is producing two types of ski goggles. Thirty percent of the production is of type A, and the rest is of type B.

Answers

Answer:

The required probability is 0.4828.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a company is producing two types of ski goggles. Thirty percent of the production is of type A, and the rest is of type B.

Five percent of all type A goggles are returned within 10 days after the sale, whereas only two percent of type B are returned.

Let the probability that production is of Type A = P(A) = 30%

Probability that production is of Type B = P(B) = 1 - P(A) = 1 - 0.30 = 70%

Also, let R = event that pair of goggles are returned

So, the probability that type A goggles are returned within 10 days after the sale = P(R/A) = 5%

Probability that type B goggles are returned within 10 days after the sale = P(R/B) = 2%  

Now, given a pair of goggles is returned within the first 10 days after the sale, the probability that the goggles returned are of type B is given by = P(B/R)

We will use the concept of Bayes' Theorem to calculate the above probability.

So,  P(B/R)  =  [tex]\frac{P(B) \times P(R/B)}{P(A) \times P(R/A)+P(B) \times P(R/B)}[/tex]

                   =  [tex]\frac{0.70 \times 0.02}{0.30 \times 0.05+0.70 \times 0.02}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

  it is the complement of 28°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle DAB made by a tangent and a chord to the point of tangency is equivalent to every other inscribed angle that intercepts the same arc. Those angles have half the measure of the central angle ACB intercepting the same arc.

In isosceles triangle ABC the base angles (shown as 28°) are the complement of half the measure of the central angle. Hence angle DAB will be the complement of the angle marked 28°.
