Urn A contains 8 yellow balls and 6 red balls. Urn B contains 3 yellow balls and 9 red balls. Urn C contains 4 yellow balls and 11 red balls. An urn is picked randomly (assume that each urn is equally likely to be chosen), and then a ball is picked from the selected urn. What is the probability that the chosen ball came from urn B, given that it was a yellow ball? a) 0.2451 b) 0.0725 c) 0.2298 d) 0.0544 e) 0.5252 f) None of the above.

Answers

Answer 1
Final answer:

The probability that a chosen ball came from Urn B, given that it was a yellow ball, is 20%, which isn't reflected in any of the provided options, making (f) None of the above the right answer.

Explanation:

To answer the question, we first need to calculate the total number of yellow balls in all urns, which is, 8 (from Urn A) + 3 (from Urn B) + 4 (from Urn C) = 15. But we are interested only in the case where the yellow ball came from Urn B, the number of which is 3. So, the probability that a yellow ball came from Urn B represents the ratio of the number of yellow balls in Urn B to the total number of yellow balls. Thus, the probability would be calculated as 3 (yellow balls in Urn B) / 15 (total yellow balls) = 0.20 or 20%. Therefore, the correct answer in the given options is (f) None of the above.

A cylindrical shaped vase has the radius of 3cm and a height of 18cm. how much water is needed to fill the vase 3/4 of the way?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To fill the entire vase:

pi(3)^2(18)= 508.9 cubic centimeters

To fill vase 3/4 of the way:

3/4= .75

So then you take what it takes to fill the vase (508.9) and multiply that by .75 which equals 381.70 cubic centimeters.

3/4 of the volume of water needed to fill the vase is 162π cm^3.

To find how much water is needed to fill the vase 3/4 of the way, we first need to calculate the volume of the vase and then determine 3/4 of that volume.

The formula to calculate the volume of a cylinder is:

[tex]Volume = \pi * radius^2 * height[/tex]

Given:

Radius (r) = 3 cm

Height (h) = 18 cm

Volume of the entire vase:

[tex]Volume = \pi * (3 cm)^2 * 18 cm\\Volume = \pi* 9 cm^2 * 18 cm\\Volume = 162\pi cm^3[/tex]

Now, to find 3/4 of the volume, multiply the total volume by 3/4:

[tex]3/4 * 162\pi cm^3 = 3 * 54\pi cm^3 = 162\pi cm^3[/tex]

So, 3/4 of the volume of water needed to fill the vase is 162π cm^3.

Solution: B. s + 9 + 16 + 19 = 52 s = 8 8 ft

Option B)s + 9 + 16 + 19 = 52. Solving this gives the fourth side as 8 ft.

To find the length of the fourth side, you need to know the equation that correctly represents the given information. The perimeter of the playground is the sum of all four sides. Therefore, the correct equation to find the fourth side (s) is:

B. s + 9 + 16 + 19 = 52

9 + 16 + 19 = 44.

s + 44 = 52.

s = 52 - 44.

s = 8.

Therefore, the length of the fourth side is 8 ft.

So, the correct option is B. s + 9 + 16 + 19 = 52.

A Petri dish contains 100 bacteria cells. The number of cells increases 5% every minute. How long will it take for the number of cells in the dish to reach 2000? Use logarithms to solve.

Answers

Using logarithm, the following equation will apply:
Y = P * [1 + z]^x
Where Y = 2000
P = 100
z = 5% = 0.05
x is the quantity we are calculating for
The equation becomes
2000 = 100 * [1+ 0.05]^x
Dividing both side by 100, we have 
20 = 10 * [ 1 + 0.05]^x
Taking the log of both sides, we have
Log 20 = Log [1 + 0.05]^x
log 20 = x * log 1.05
x = log 20/ log 1.05 = 61.40
Thus, it will takes 61.40 minutes for the number of cells in the petri dish to reach 2000.

Answer:

The monthly payment is $364.42

B is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The monthly payment on $13,300 financed at 7.9 percent for 4 years.

If the monthly payment per $100 is $2.74

Financed amount = $13,300

We are given monthly payment for $100 is $2.74

It means we pay $2.74 for $100.

Now we find how many number of $100 in $13,300

Number of $100 in $13,300 [tex]=\dfrac{13300}{100} = 133[/tex]

133 number of hundred in $13,300

For each $100 monthly payment  = $2.74

                           For 133 payment = 133 x 2.74

Monthly Payment for $13,300 finance = $364.42

Two planes which are 3540 miles apart fly toward each other. Their speeds differ by 35 mph. If they pass each other in 4 hours, what is the speed of each?

Answers

3540 miles divided by 4 hours is 885, divided by 2 planes is 442.5 mph if their speeds differ by 35 miles per hour, split the difference: 17.5 + 442.5=460 mph for plane A, 442.5-17.5= 425 for plane B.  So one is flying at 460 mph and the other at 425 mph


Final answer:

The speed of the slower plane is 425 mph, and the speed of the faster plane is 460 mph, determined by using the concept of relative speed and algebra to solve the given equation.

Explanation:

To solve the problem of two planes flying towards each other, we need to use the concept of relative speed. We know that the two planes are 3540 miles apart and that they pass each other after 4 hours. The speeds of the planes differ by 35 mph. The relative speed of the two planes combined is the distance divided by the time, so we calculate it as follows:

Relative Speed = Total Distance / Time = 3540 miles / 4 hours = 885 mph

So, if we denote the speed of the slower plane as S mph, the speed of the faster plane will be S + 35 mph. Since their combined speed is the relative speed, we can set up the following equation:

S + (S + 35) = 885

From this equation, we need to find the value of S which represents the speed of the slower plane. We can then add 35 to S to find the speed of the faster plane. Here's how it's done step by step:

Combine like terms: 2S + 35 = 885Subtract 35 from both sides: 2S = 850Divide by 2 to solve for S: S = 425 mphAdd 35 to S to find the speed of the faster plane: 425 + 35 = 460 mph

Therefore, the speed of the slower plane is 425 mph and the speed of the faster plane is 460 mph.

When we toss a penny, experience shows that the probability (long term proportion) of a head is close to 1-in-2. suppose now that we toss the penny repeatedly until we get a head. what is the probability that the first head comes up in an odd number of tosses (one, three, five, and so on)?

Answers

2/3 or 0.66666
       
This is a sum of an infinite series problem. A sequence of 1 will happen with a probability of 0.5 A sequence of 3 will happen with a probability of 1/2^3, 1/8, = 0.125 In general we have an infinite series of 1/2^1 + 1/2^3 + 1/2^5 + ... + 1/2^(2n-1) where n >= 1 The sum of such a series with a constant ratio between sequential terms is S = s1/(1-r) where s1 = first term in the series r = ratio between terms. The value for s1 = 0.5 as shown above and the 2nd term is 0.125. So r = 0.125 / 0.5 = 0.25 And the sum of the infinite series is S = s1/(1-r) S = 0.5/(1 - 0.25) S = 0.5/0.75 S = 2/3 S = 0.666..66 So the probability of the first head coming up in an odd number of tosses is 2/3, or 66.6%
Final answer:

The probability that the first head comes up in an odd number of tosses can be determined using geometric probability.

Explanation:

When tossing a coin repeatedly until we get a head, the probability that the first head comes up in an odd number of tosses can be determined using geometric probability. Since the probability of getting a head in one toss is 0.5, the probability of getting a head in an odd number of tosses (one, three, five, etc.) can be calculated using the formula:

P(odd number of tosses) = P(tail) * P(tail) * P(tail) * ... * P(head)

The number of terms in the product is determined by the number of tosses required to get the first head. For example, if it takes 3 tosses to get the first head, the formula becomes:

P(odd number of tosses) = P(tail) * P(tail) * P(head)

Since the probability of getting a tail is 0.5 and the probability of getting a head is also 0.5, the formula simplifies to:

P(odd number of tosses) = 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * ... * 0.5 = (0.5)^n

Where 'n' is the number of tosses required to get the first head.

Answers

By "y = −9x2 − 2x" I assume you meant  y = −9x^2 − 2x (the "^" symbol represents exponentiation).

Let's find the first derivative of y with respect to x:  dy/dx = -18x - 2.  This is equivalent to the slope of the tangent line to the (parabolic) curve.  Now let this derivative (slope) = 0 and solve for the critical value:  -18x - 2 = 0, or
-18x = 2.  Solving for x,   x = -2/18,    or    x = -1/9.

When x = -1/9, y = -9(-1/9)^2 - 2(-1/9).  This simplifies to y = -9/9 + 2/9, or 
y = -7/9.

The only point at which the tangent to the curve is horiz. is (-1/9,-7/9).

The tangent line is the point that touches a graph at a point.

The value of x at the tangent line to the graph of [tex]\mathbf{y=-9x^2 - 2x}[/tex] is [tex]\mathbf{x = -\frac 19 }[/tex]

The function is given as:

[tex]\mathbf{y=-9x^2 - 2x}[/tex]

Differentiate both sides with respect to x

[tex]\mathbf{y' =-18x - 2}[/tex]

Set the above equation to 0, to calculate the value of x

Collect like terms

[tex]\mathbf{-18x = 2 }[/tex]

Divide both sides by -18

[tex]\mathbf{x = -\frac 19 }[/tex]

[tex]273=16\times17+\underline1[/tex]
[tex]\implies\mathrm{gcd}(3019,273)=1[/tex]

Final answer:

To find the greatest common divisor of 273 and 3019 using Euclid's algorithm, we divide the larger number by the smaller and use the remainder to repeat the process until we reach a remainder of 0. The gcd of 273 and 3019 is determined to be 1, indicating that they are coprime.

Explanation:

Using Euclid's Algorithm to Find the GCD

Euclid's algorithm is a method to determine the greatest common divisor (gcd) of two numbers. To find the gcd of 273 and 3019, we perform the Euclidean division repeatedly until we get a remainder of zero. The last non-zero remainder will be the gcd of the given numbers.

Divide 3019 by 273 to get a quotient of 11 and a remainder of 46.

Next, divide 273 by 46 to get a quotient of 5 and a remainder of 43.

Then, divide 46 by 43 to get a quotient of 1 and a remainder of 3.

Finally, divide 43 by 3 to get a quotient of 14 and a remainder of 1.

Now, divide 3 by 1 to get a quotient of 3 and a remainder of 0.

Since the last non-zero remainder is 1, the greatest common divisor (gcd) or g of 273 and 3019 is 1. Thus, 273 and 3019 are coprime or relatively prime to each other.

The sum of two positive numbers is 12. what two numbers will maximize the product g

Answers

Given two numbers x and y such that:

x + y = 12   ...    (1)


two numbers will maximize the product g

from  equation (1) 

y = 12 - x  

Using this value of y, we represent xy as

xy = f(x)= x(12 - x)

 f(x) = 12x - x^2

Differentiating the above function:

f'(x) = 12 - 2x

Maximum value of f(x) occurs at point for which f'(x) = 0.

Equating f'(x) to 0 we get:

12 - 2x = 0

 2x =  12

> x = 12/2 = 6

Substituting this value of x in equation (2):

y = 12 - 6 = 6

Therefore, value of xy is maximum when:

x = 6 and y = 6

The maximum value of xy = 6*6 = 36

The two numbers that sum up to 12 and maximize the product are 6 and 6.

Let's denote the two numbers by x and y. We know that x + y = 12, and we want to maximize the product P = xy.

First, express y in terms of x,

y = 12 - x

P = x(12 - x)
= 12x - x²

To find the maximum value of P, we can take the derivative of P with respect to x and set it to zero,

dP/dx = 12 - 2x

Set dP/dx to 0: 12 - 2x = 0

x = 6

Since x + y = 12, if x = 6, then y = 12 - 6 = 6.

The two numbers are 6 and 6.
This combination will maximize the product, which is 6 * 6 = 36.

In conclusion, the two numbers that add up to 12 and maximize their product are both 6.

u = 3 x^2 + 6 [(2401 – 490 x + 25 x^2) / 121]

u = 3 x^2 + 14406/121 – 2940x/121 + 150x^2/121

u = 4.24 x^2 – 24.3 x + 119.06

Derive then set du/dx = 0 to get the maxima:

du/dx = 8.48 x – 24.3 = 0

solving for x:

8.48 x = 24.3

x = 2.87

 

so y is:

y = (49 – 5x) / 11 = (49 – 5*2.87) / 11

y = 3.15

 

Answer:

George will choose some of each commodity but more y than x.

A rectangular garden must have an area of 64 square feet. find the minimum perimeter of the garden.

Answers

A rectangular garden must have an area of 64 square feet then the minimum perimeter of the garden is 32 feet and this can be determined by using the formula of the perimeter of a rectangle.

Given :

A rectangular garden must have an area of 64 square feet.

The area of a rectangle is given by:

[tex]\rm A =l\times w[/tex]

where 'l' is the length of the rectangle and 'w' is the width of the rectangle.

Given that area of the rectangular garden is 64 square feet that is:

64 = lw

[tex]\rm w = \dfrac{64}{l}[/tex]   ---- (1)

Now the perimeter of a rectangle is given by:

P = 2(l + w)

Put the value of w in the above equation.

[tex]\rm P = 2 (l + \dfrac{64}{l})[/tex]   ---- (2)

For minimum perimeter differentiate the above equation with respect to the length of the garden.

[tex]\rm P' = 2 - \dfrac{128}{l^2}[/tex]  

Now, equate the above equation to zero.

[tex]\rm 0 = 2-\dfrac{128}{l^2}[/tex]

[tex]l^2 = 64[/tex]

[tex]l = 8[/tex]

Now put the value of l in equation (2).

[tex]\rm P = 2(8 + \dfrac{64}{8})[/tex]

P = 32 feet.

A rectangular garden must have an area of 64 square feet then the minimum perimeter of the garden is 32 feet.

What number should I multiply 1 1/4 by to get 7/12

Answers

Let's take our given information and transform it into numbers. We will let x equal the "mystery" number we need to find. Here is our equation:
[tex]1 \frac{1}{4} x= \frac{7}{12} [/tex]
Now, all we need to do is convert the mixed fraction into an improper fraction:
[tex] \frac{5}{4} x= \frac{7}{12}[/tex] 
Now, just multiply the reciprocal of 5/4 with 7/12, giving us:
[tex] x=\frac{4}{5}* \frac{7}{12} [/tex]
Finally, just straight up multiply to get an answer of x = 28/60, which can be simplified down to x = 7/15. Therefore, the number you have to multiply 1 1/4 to get 7/12 is 7/15. Hope this helped!
1 and 1/4 is the same as 5/4 so essentially we are asking what do we multiple 5/4 by to get 7/12. Try to keep things as fractions initially to see if there is a fractional answer with whole numbers.

Let x represent the number:
x . 5/4 = 7/12
i.e. 5x/4 = 7/12
We want to get x on it's own so multiply both sides of equation by 4
5x = 4 . (7/12) = 28/12
now divide both sides by 5 to get x on its own
x = (28/12) / 5
This does not equate to a whole number fraction as 28 and 12 are not divisible by 5. So simply convert to decimal
x = 2.3333 / 5 = 0.46666



50% of all the cakes jenny baked were party cakes, 1/5 were fruit cakes and the remainder were sponge cakes. What percentage of cakes were sponge cakes?

Answers

So basically you want to find the total percentage of cakes that weren't sponge cakes first.

You already have the 50% of party cakes. For the 1/5 percent of fruit cakes, you can multiply it by 20/20, to get 20/100, and then just take the 20 to get 20% that were fruit cakes.

Now you can just add the percentages together.

50% + 20% = 70%

So now you know 70% weren't sponge cakes, out of 100%.

So here you can just subtract 70% from 100% to figure out the remaining part of 100%, which must be sponge cakes.

100% - 70% = 30%

So 30% of the cakes were sponge cakes.
