Answer:
a) 0.0008 = 0.08% probability that the number of adults who oppose special tax on junk food and soda is exactly one.
b) 0.9644 = 96.44% probability that the number of adults who oppose special tax on junk food and soda is at least four.
c) 0.7795 = 77.95% probability that the number of adults who oppose special tax on junk food and soda is less than eight.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are opposed to taxes on junk food and soda, or they are not. Each adult is independent of other adults, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve the question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
63% of US adults opposed to taxes on junk food and soda.
This means that [tex]p = 0.63[/tex]
You randomly select 10 US adults.
This means that [tex]n = 10[/tex]
(a) exactly one
This is [tex]P(X = 1)[/tex]. So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.63)^{1}.(0.37)^{9} = 0.0008[/tex]
0.0008 = 0.08% probability that the number of adults who oppose special tax on junk food and soda is exactly one.
(b) at least four
This is
[tex]P(X \geq 4) = 1 - P(X < 4)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)[/tex]
So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{10,0}.(0.63)^{0}.(0.37)^{10} \approx 0[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{10,1}.(0.63)^{1}.(0.37)^{9} = 0.0008[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{10,2}.(0.63)^{2}.(0.37)^{8} = 0.0063[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{10,3}.(0.63)^{3}.(0.37)^{7} = 0.0285[/tex]
[tex]P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0 + 0.0008 + 0.0063 + 0.0285 = 0.0356[/tex]
[tex]P(X \geq 4) = 1 - P(X < 4) = 1 - 0.0356 = 0.9644[/tex]
0.9644 = 96.44% probability that the number of adults who oppose special tax on junk food and soda is at least four.
(c) less than eight
This is
[tex]P(X < 8) = 1 - P(X \geq 8)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X \geq 8) = P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 8) = C_{10,8}.(0.63)^{8}.(0.37)^{2} = 0.1529[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 9) = C_{10,1}.(0.63)^{9}.(0.37)^{1} = 0.0578[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 10) = C_{10,2}.(0.63)^{10}.(0.37)^{0} = 0.0098[/tex]
[tex]P(X \geq 8) = P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10) = 0.1529 + 0.0578 + 0.0098 = 0.2205[/tex]
[tex]P(X < 8) = 1 - P(X \geq 8) = 1 - 0.2205 = 0.7795[/tex]
0.7795 = 77.95% probability that the number of adults who oppose special tax on junk food and soda is less than eight.

Solve the equation for x. 2x + 22 = 4(x+3)
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the algebraic expression and are asked to solve for x.
To solve, we need to isolate x.
2x + 22 = 4(x + 3)
Distribute :
2x + 22 = (4(x) + 4(3))
2x + 22 = 4x + 12
Subtract 12 from both sides :
2x + 10 = 4x
4x = 2x + 10
Subtract 2x from both sides :
2x = 10
Divide 2 from both sides to get x alone :
x = 5
Answer:
x = 5

4x = 2x + 10
Subtract 2x from both sides :
2x = 10
Divide 2 from both sides to get x alone :

the half life of carbon 14 is 5730 years. how much of a 50 gram sample would be left after 15000 years
Answer:
In this question (t½) of C-14 is 5730 years, which means that after 5730 years half of the sample would have decayed and half would be left as it is. After 5730 years ( first half life) 70 /2 = 35 mg decays and 35 g remains left. After another 5730 years ( two half lives or 11460 years) 35 /2 = 17.5mg decays and 17.5 g remains left . After another 5730 years ( three half lives or 17190 years) 17.5 /2 = 8.75mg decays and 8.75g remains left. after three half lives or 17190 years, 8.75 g of C-14 will be left.

Answer:
3√41
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonal can be gotten using the pythagoras theorem
d² = l²+w²
d² = 12²+15²
d² = 144 + 225
d² = 369
d = √9*41
d = 3√41
Hence the diagonal is 3√41

A store owner purchased 70 soccer balls for $24.50 each. The store owne sold 40 of the soccer balls for $39.75 each. The remainder of the soccer balls were sold for $29.50 each. How much profit did the store owner earn?
Answer:
The stores profit was $757
Step-by-step explanation:
70 x 24.50=1715
they spent 1715 on 70 soccer balls.
They sold 40 of the soccer balls for 39.75 each.
so 40 x 39.75=1590
Then the the remainder of the soccer balls would be 30 since they only started with 70
so they sold 30 soccer balls for 29.50 each.
30 x 29.50= 882
So add 882+1590=2472
then take that number and subtract it from 1715
2472-1715=757 So in profit they made $757 dollars.

Miguel can drive 4 times as fast as Raul can ride his bicycle. If it takes Raul 3 hours longer than Miguel to travel 68 miles, how fast (in mph) can Raul ride his bicycle? Round your answer to two decimal places, if needed.
Answer:
17 mphStep-by-step explanation:
Miguel's speed = m, Raul's speed = rGivenm = 4rDistance = 68 milesTime difference = 3 hoursSolutiontime = distance/speedSubstitute values and solve for r the equation of the time difference:
68/m + 3 = 68/r68/4r + 3 = 68/r17/r + 3 = 68/r17 + 3r = 683r = 68 - 173r = 51r = 17Raul's speed is 17 mph

15 + 6 x 7 - 12 divided by 2
Answer:
22.5
Step-by-step explanation:
It is very important to use bidmas (the order of mathematical functions - standing for brackets, indices, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction) in this question. 15 + 6 x 7 - 12 divided by 2 can also be written as (15 + 6 × 7 - 12) ÷ 2. First, you should complete the multiplication to make (15 + 42 - 12) ÷ 2. Then, complete the addition which makes (57 - 12) ÷ 2. Afterwards, do the subtraction which makes it 45 ÷ 2. This is 22.5. I hope this helps!

3) Cory is standing on a cliff that is 48 feet above the ground. He throws a rock in to the air. The height, h, of the rock
after t seconds is given by h(t) = -2t+4t +48.
a) What is the initial height?
b) How many seconds does it take to reach the maximum height?
c) What is the rock's maximum height?
d) How many seconds does it take to for the rock to land on the ground?
Answer:
a) The initial height of the rock is of 48 feet.
b) It takes 1 seconds for the rock to reach maximum height.
c) The rock's maximum height is 50 feet.
d) It takes 6 seconds for the rock to land on the ground.
Step-by-step explanation:
Vertex of a quadratic function:
Suppose we have a quadratic function in the following format:
[tex]f(x) = ax^{2} + bx + c[/tex]
It's vertex is the point [tex](x_{v}, f(x_{v})[/tex]
In which
[tex]x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]
If a<0, the vertex is a maximum point, that is, the maximum value happens at [tex]x_{v}[/tex], and it's value is [tex]f(x_{v})[/tex]
Solving a quadratic equation:
Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:
[tex]ax^{2} + bx + c, a\neq0[/tex].
This polynomial has roots [tex]x_{1}, x_{2}[/tex] such that [tex]ax^{2} + bx + c = a(x - x_{1})*(x - x_{2})[/tex], given by the following formulas:
[tex]x_{1} = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}[/tex]
[tex]x_{2} = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}[/tex]
[tex]\bigtriangleup = b^{2} - 4ac[/tex]
In this question:
The height of the ball after t seconds, in feet, is given by:
[tex]h(t) = -2t^2 + 4t + 48[/tex]
Which is a quadratic equation with [tex]a = -2, b = 4, c = 48[/tex]
a) What is the initial height?
This is [tex]h(0) = 48[/tex]. So the initial height of the rock is of 48 feet.
b) How many seconds does it take to reach the maximum height?
This is the value of t at the vertex. So
[tex]t_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a} = -\frac{4}{2(-2)} = 1[/tex]
It takes 1 seconds for the rock to reach maximum height.
c) What is the rock's maximum height?
This is the height of the ball after 1 second. So
[tex]h(1) = -2(1)^2 + 4(1) + 48 = 50[/tex]
The rock's maximum height is 50 feet.
d) How many seconds does it take to for the rock to land on the ground?
This is t for which [tex]h(t) = 0[/tex], so we solve the quadratic equation.
[tex]\bigtriangleup = (4)^2-4(-2)(48) = 400[/tex]
[tex]t_{1} = \frac{-4 + \sqrt{400}}{2*(-2)} = -4[/tex]
[tex]t_{2} = \frac{-4 - \sqrt{400}}{2*(-2)} = 6[/tex]
Time is a positive measures, so it takes 6 seconds for the rock to land on the ground.

Three uniform shirts sell for $34.50. How much will 5 uniform shirts cost?
Answer:
57.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Recognize our numbers
3,5,34.50
Three uniform shirts sell for 34.50
34.50/3
=11.5
How much will five cost?
5x11.5
=57.5
Hope this helps!
Answer:
55.25
Step-by-step explanation:
1. First we need to work out the price of ONE shirt. To do that we divide the total price of 3 shirts by 3.
34.50 / 3 = 11.05
2. Now we know that the price of one shirt is $11.05p we can multiply that by 5 to get the price of 5 shirts.
11.05 * 5 = 55.25
= $55.25p
