Find the ​z-score corresponding to the given value and use the ​z-score to determine whether the value is significant. Consider a score to be significant if its ​z-score is less than -2.00 or greater than 2.00. Round the ​z-score to the nearest tenth if necessary. A. -1.6; not significant B.-17.6; significant C. -1.6, significant D. 1.6; not significant

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. -1.6; not significant

Step-by-step explanation:

The z-score of a data set that is normally distributed with a mean of [tex]\bar x[/tex] and a standard deviation of [tex]\sigma[/tex], is given by:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\bar x}{\sigma}[/tex].

From the question, the test score is: [tex]x=48.4[/tex], the mean is [tex]\bar x=66[/tex], and the standard deviation is [tex]\sigma =11[/tex].

We just have to plug these values into the above formula to obtain:

[tex]z=\frac{48.4-66}{11}[/tex].

This simplifies to:  [tex]z=\frac{-17.6}{11}[/tex].

[tex]z=-1.6[/tex].

We can see that the z-score falls within two standard deviations of the mean.

Since [tex]-2\le-1.6\le2[/tex] the value is not significant.

The correct answer is A. -1.6; not significant

Answer:

D, D

Step-by-step explanation:

Nickels are $0.05, Dimes are $0.10 and quarters are $0.25

Simply work out the options and see which one gives you $1.95

A) By observation, we see that this combination has 16 coins, but the question says only 15 coins. Hence we can remove this as an option.

B) 5($0.05) + 7($0.10) + 3($0.25) = $1.70 ≠ $1.95 (wrong)

C) 7($0.05) + 6($0.10) + 2($0.25) = $1.45 ≠ $1.95 (wrong)

D) 3($0.05) + 8($0.10) + 4($0.25) = $1.95 (Correct)

FOr next question, D is not a function because if you observe the values in D, an input of 7 should give 11 i.e (7,11), but there is another option where 7 gives an output of 13 i.e (7,13).

Because for a function to be valid, one input cannot give 2 different outputs, D is not a function.

A study of the amount of time it takes a mechanic to rebuild the transmission for a 1992 Chevrolet Cavalier shows that the mean is 8.4 hours and the standard deviation is 1.8 hours. If 40 mechanics are randomly selected, find the probability that their mean rebuild time is less than 7.6 hours.

Answers

Answer: 0.0026

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Mean : [tex]\mu=8.4\text{ hours}[/tex]

Standard Deviation : [tex]\sigma = 1.8\text{ hours}[/tex]

Sample size : [tex]n=40[/tex]

Formula to calculate z-score :-

[tex]z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

For X=7.6 hours.

[tex]z=\dfrac{7.6-8.4}{\dfrac{1.8}{\sqrt{40}}}=-2.81091347571\approx-2.8[/tex]

[tex]P(X<7.6)=P(Z<-2.8)=0.0025551\approx0.0026[/tex]

Hence, the probability that their mean rebuild time is less than 7.6 hours = 0.0026

The probability that their mean rebuild time is less than 7.6 hours is 0.0026

Explanation:

A study of the amount of time it takes a mechanic to rebuild the transmission for a 1992 Chevrolet Cavalier shows that the mean is 8.4 hours and the standard deviation is 1.8 hours. If 40 mechanics are randomly selected, find the probability that their mean rebuild time is less than 7.6 hours.

The Chevrolet Cavalier is the line of small cars produced for the model years 1982 until 2005 by Chevrolet. Mechanics is the physics area concerned with the motions of macroscopic objects. The mean is the number average. To calculate we add up all the numbers then divide by how many numbers there are. In other words it is the sum divided by the count.

[tex]\mu = 8.4 hours[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = 1.8 hours[/tex]

[tex]n=40[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{Xbar -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{r} } } = \frac{7.6-8.4}{\frac{1.8}{\sqrt{40} } } = -2.81[/tex]

Therefore the value of  Xbar < 7.6 hours. from the standard normal table is 0.0026

Hence, the probability that their mean rebuild time is less than 7.6 hours is  0.0026  = 0.26%.

Suppose you invest $150 a month for 5 years into an account earning 7% compounded monthly. After 5 years, you leave the money, without making additional deposits, in the account for another 23 years. How much will you have in the end?

Answers

Answer:

About 0.3 billion dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

5 years = 60 months.

The 150 of the first month will be 150*1.07^60 in 5 years.

The 150 of the second month will be 150*1.07^59 in 5 years.

The 150 of the third month will be 150*1.07^58 in 5 years.

And so forth.

So we sum that up:

( sum_(n=1)^(60) 150×1.07^n)

The width of a rectangle is 4 less than twice its length. If the area of the rectangle is 153 cm2, what is the length of the diagonal?

Give your answer to 2 decimal places.

If anyone could explain this I would appreciate it, all the answers I kept getting on similar questions were a few numbers off and I don't know why.

Answers

Answer:

  diagonal ≈ 18.43 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L represent the length of the rectangle. Then the width is ...

  w = 2L -4 . . . . . . 4 less than twice the length

The area is ...

  A = wL = (2L -4)L = 2L² -4L

The area is said to be 153 cm², so we have ...

  2L² -4L = 153

  2L² -4L -153 = 0 . . . . . . subtract 153 to put into standard form

We can find the solution to this using the quadratic formula. It tells us the solution to ax²+bx+c=0 is given by ...

  x = (-b±√(b²-4ac))/(2a)

We have a=2, b=-4, c=-153, so our solution for L is ...

  L = (-(-4) ±√((-4)²-4(2)(-153)))/(2(2)) = (4±√1240)/4

Only the positive solution is of interest, so L = 1+√77.5.

__

Now we know the rectangle is 1+√77.5 long and -2+2√77.5 wide. The diagonal (d) is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with these leg lengths. Its measure can be found from ...

  d² = w² +L² = (-2+2√77.5)² +(1+√77.5)²

It can work well to simply evaluate this using a calculator, or it can be simplified first.

  d² = 4 -8√77.5 +4·77.5 + 1 +2√77.5 +77.5 = 392.5 -6√77.5

Taking the square root gives the diagonal length:

  d = √(392.5 -6√77.5) ≈ 18.43 . . . . cm

b. [2 pts] The stones used to build the Great Pyramid were limestone blocks
with an average volume of 1.5 cubic yards. Assuming a solid
pyramid, how many of these blocks were needed to construct the
Great Pyramid?

Answers

First convert the dimensions of the pyramid from feet to yards.

1 yard = 3 feet.

756 feet / 3 ft per yard = 252 yards.

480 feet / 3 ft per yard = 160 yards.

The formula for volume of a pyramid is:  Area of the base x the height divided by 3.

Volume = 252 yds^2 x 160/3 = 63504 x 160/3 = 3,386,880 cubic yards.

Now to find the number of bricks needed. divide the total volume by the volume of 1 brick:

3,386,880 / 1.5 = 2,257,920 total bricks.

Electric power costs 17.8 cents per kWh in Los Angeles in July 2017 (compared to the national average of 14.3 cents per kWh). How much did it cost (in cents) to run a 1500 W hair dryer for 10 minutes in Los Angeles during July 2017? Assume 3 significant digits in your answer.

Answers

Answer:

The cost to run a 1500 W hair dryer for 10 minutes in Los Angeles during July 2017 is:

                   4.45 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

Electric power costs 17.8 cents per kWh in Los Angeles in July 2017.

Now we are asked to find the cost to run  a 1500 W hair dryer for 10 minutes in Los Angeles during July 2017.

We know that: 1 w=0.001 kW

This means that:

   1500 W= 1.500 kW

Also, it is used for 10 minutes

i.e. 1/6 hours

Hence, the electric power used to run the hair dryer is: 1.500×(1/6)

i.e. Electric power to used by hair dryer is: 0.25 kWh

Cost of 1 kwh is: 17.8 cents

This means that cost of 0.25 kwh is: 17.8×0.25

                                                        =  4.45 cents

Hence, the answer is:

                      4.45 cents

Suppose that there are two types of tickets to a show: advance and same-day. Advance tickets cost $25 and same-day tickets cost $35. For one performance, there were 45 tickets sold in all, and the total amount paid for them was $1375
. How many tickets of each type were sold?

Answers

For this case we propose a system of equations:

x: Variable representing the anticipated tickets

y: Variable representing the same day tickets

So:

[tex]x + y = 45\\25x + 35y = 1375[/tex]

We clear x from the first equation:

[tex]x = 45-y[/tex]

We substitute in the second equation:

[tex]25 (45-y) + 35y = 1375\\1125-25y + 35y = 1375\\10y = 1375-1125\\10y = 250\\y = 25[/tex]

We look for the value of x:

[tex]x = 45-25\\x = 20[/tex]

Thus, 20 of anticipated type and 25 of same day type were sold.

Answer:

20 of anticipated type and 25 of same day type were sold.

Answer: 20 advance tickets and 25 same-day tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a system of equations.

Let be "a" the number of advance tickets and "s" the number of same-day tickets.

Then:

[tex]\left \{ {{25a+35s=1375} \atop {a+s=45}} \right.[/tex]

You can use the Elimination method. Multiply the second equation by -25, then add both equations and solve for "s":

[tex]\left \{ {{25a+35s=1,375} \atop {-25a-25s=-1,125}} \right.\\.............................\\10s=250\\\\s=\frac{250}{10}\\\\s=25[/tex]

Substitute [tex]s=25[/tex] into an original equation and solve for "a":

[tex]a+(25)=45\\\\a=45-25\\\\a=20[/tex]

A. The point-slope form of the equation of a line is y ? y1 = m(x ? x1), where m is the slope and (x1, y1) is a point on the line. Write the equation of the line in point-slope form perpendicular to the graph of y = 1/2x -7 passing through the point (6, 5).

B. Write an equation of the perpendicular bisector of JK, where J = (?8, 4) and K = (4, 4).

Can you show work please.

Answers

Answer:

A.

[tex]y - 5 = -2(x-6)[/tex]

Negative reciprocal gives you the perpendicular slope so negative reciprocal of 1/2 is -2.

Then apply point-slope form.

B. The answer is x = 6.

The midpoint of JK is

[tex]\left( \frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2} \right) = \left( \frac{8+ 4}{2}, \frac{4 + 4}{2} \right) = \left(6,4\right)[/tex]

The line that goes through JK is just a horizontal line [tex]y = 4[/tex] because the y-coordinate does not change. So its perpendicular bisector is the vertical line that goes through the x-coordinate of the midpoint, that is, [tex]x = 6[/tex].

If the nominal interest rate is 6 percent and the rate of inflation is 10 percent, then the real interest rate is A. -16 percent. B. 4 percent. C. -4 percent. D. 16 percent.

Answers

Answer: C. -4 percent

Step-by-step explanation:

Nominal interest rate is the interest rate before taking inflation into account.

Real interest rate takes the inflation rate into account.

The equation that links all three values is

nominal rate - inflation rate = real rate

6 - 10 = -4

-4 percent

Final answer:

The real interest rate can be calculated by subtracting the inflation rate from the nominal interest rate. In this case, the real interest rate is -4%, suggesting an investor would lose value due to inflation.

Explanation:

The calculation of the real interest rate involves subtracting inflation from the nominal interest rate. This is essential since inflation erodes the purchasing power of money, making it an important factor to consider when dealing with interest rates. In this case, you need to subtract the inflation rate (10 percent) from the nominal interest rate (6 percent).

So, performing this calculation:
6% (Nominal Interest Rate) - 10% (Inflation Rate) = -4%

Thus, in this scenario, the correct option would be C. -4 percent. This implies that an investor would actually lose ground when considering the effect of inflation.

what is the y-coordinate of the vertex of the parabola?

f(x)= -x^2 - 2x +6

Answers

Answer:

  7

Step-by-step explanation:

The function can be written in vertex form as ...

  f(x) = -(x +1)^2 +7

The vertex is then identifiable as (-1, 7). The y-coordinate is 7.

_____

Vertex form is ...

  f(x) = a(x -h)^2 +k

where "a" is the vertical scale factor, and (h, k) is the vertex point. It is convenient to arrive at this form by factoring "a" from the first two terms, then adding and subtracting the square of the remaining x-coefficient inside and outside parentheses.

  f(x) = -(x^2 +2x) +6

  f(x) = -(x^2 +2x +1) + 6 -(-1) . . . . completing the square

  f(x) = -(x +1)^2 +7 . . . . . . . . . . . . vertex form; a=-1, (h, k) = (-1, 7)

The y-coordinate of the vertex of the parabola defined by the function f(x)= -x² - 2x + 6 is 3. This is found by using the vertex formula and then substituting the x-coordinate back into the original function.

To find the y-coordinate of the vertex of the parabola defined by the quadratic function f(x)= -x² - 2x + 6, we can use the vertex formula for a parabola in standard form, which is y = ax² + bx + c. The x-coordinate of the vertex is given by the formula -b/(2a), and the y-coordinate can then be calculated by applying the x-coordinate to the original function.

First, let's find the x-coordinate of the vertex:

a = -1 (coefficient of x²)b = -2 (coefficient of x)

x-coordinate of the vertex, x_v = -(-2)/(2*(-1)) = -(-2)/(-2) = 1

Now, substitute x_v back into the function to find the y-coordinate:

y-coordinate of the vertex, y_v = f(1) = -1² - 2*1 + 6 = -1 - 2 + 6 = 3

Therefore, the y-coordinate of the vertex is 3.

what is the value of X

Answers

I believe it would be 50 degrees because 180-130=50 and this is a straight line.

i think 134 is supposed to throw you off. if no one else answers i would go with this.

let me know if this is correct, if you get the chance. i apologize in advance if i’m wrong.

Answer:

The value of x = 96°

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we consider two angles be <1, <2 and < 3, where <1 is the linear pair of angle measures 130° and <2 be the linear pair of angle measures 134°

To find the value of m<1

m<1 = 180 - 130 = 50°

To find the value of m<2

m<2 = 180 - 134 = 46°

To find the value of m<3

By using angle sum property,

m<1 + m<2 + m< 3 = 180

m<3 =180 - (m<1 + m<2)

 = 180 - (50 + 46 = 96

 = 84°

To find the value of x

Here x and <3 are linear pair,

x + m<3 = 180

x = 180 - m<3

 = 180 - 84 = 96°

Therefore the value of x = 96°

For each of the following statements, state whether it is true (meaning, always true) or false (meaning, not always true): Let X and Y be two binomial random variables. (a) If X and Y are independent, then X+Y is also a binomial random variable.

Answers

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

it is absolutely true that biononmials always gives biononmials when added

If X and Y are independent, then X+Y is not a binomial random variable and so it is a false statement.

What is the sum of independent binomial random variables?

This term is known to be a binomial random variable that occurs when all the parts of the variables is said to have similar success probability.

The best method to check if two random variables are said to be independent is through the  calculation of the covariance of the two specific random variables.

Note that if If the variables are said to be independent (X and Y), then their difference is said to be not binomially distributed.
