Question:

The question is incomplete without the answer choice. Let's consider the following:

A line has a slope of -4/5. Which ordered pairs could be points on a line that is perpendicular to this line? select two options

a) -2,0 and 2,5

b) -4,5 and 4,-5

c) -3,4 and 2,0

d) 1,-1 and 6,-5

e) 2,-1 and 10,9

Step-by-step explanation:

The ordered pairs that could be points on a line that is perpendicular to this line would have same slope as that of the line.

Let's check out the slope of the options.

The line has slope = -4/5

Slope = m = (y subscript 2 -y subscript 1)/(x subscript 2 - x subscript 1)

The coordinates is in the form of (x,y)

Find attached the workings.

a) -2,0 and 2,5

m = 5/4

b) -4,5 and 4,-5

m = -5/4

c) -3,4 and 2,0

m = -4/5

d) 1,-1 and 6,-5

m = -4/5

e) 2,-1 and 10,9

m = 5/4

Two lines are perpendicular if (m subscript 1) × (m subscript 2) = -1

In other words, the slopes

of the two lines must be negative reciprocals of each other.

If 1st slope = -4/5

For the lines to be perpendicular, the slope of every other line = 5/4

2nd slope = 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of seconds, t it takes for an object to fall a distance of d meters can be found using the formula t=2dg−−√, where g is the constant acceleration due to gravity, 9.8msec2. How many meters does an object fall in 5 seconds? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:

d = 61.25 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of seconds, t it takes for an object to fall a distance of d meters can be found using the formula :

[tex]t=2\sqrt{\dfrac{d}{g}}[/tex] .....(1)

It is required to find the distance covered by ab object in 5 seconds

Solving equation (1) for d. So,

[tex]d=\dfrac{t^2g}{4}[/tex]

Putting all the values we get :

[tex]d=\dfrac{(5)^2\times 9.8}{4}\\\\d=61.25\ m[/tex]

So, the distance covered by the object is 61.25 m.

The object will fall at a distance of 122.5 meters.

What is acceleration?

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time, both in terms of speed and direction.

Given that, t = √(2d/g).

t = √(2d/g

t√(g/2) = √d

t²(g/2) = d

Or, d = t²(g/2)

Substitute g = 9.8 and t = 5:

d = 5²(9.8/2)

d = 122.5 meters

Hence, the object will fall at a distance of 122.5 meters.

Records on a fleet of trucks reveal that the average life of a set of spark plugs is normally distributed with a mean of 22,100 miles. The fleet owner purchased 18 sets and found that the sample average life was 23,400 miles; the sample standard deviation was 1,412 miles.

a) To decide if the sample data support the company records that the spark plugs average 22,100 miles, state your decision in terms of the null hypothesis. Use a 0.05 level of significance.

b) What is the critical value for the test using a 0.05 level of significance?

c) What is the test statistic?

d) What is your decision?

Answers

Answer:

a) We want to conduct a hypothesis in order to see if the true mean is 22100 or not, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:[tex]\mu = 22100[/tex]  

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]\mu \neq 22100[/tex]  

b) We need to find the degrees of freedom given by:

[tex] df =n-1 = 18-1=17[/tex]

And the critical values for this case are:

[tex] t_{\alpha/2}= 2.110[/tex]

c) [tex]t=\frac{23400-22100}{\frac{1412}{\sqrt{18}}}=3.906[/tex]  

d) Since the calculated value is higher than the critical value we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is significantly different from 221100 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Information provided

[tex]\bar X=23400[/tex] represent the sample mean

[tex]s=1412[/tex] represent the sample standard deviation

[tex]n=18[/tex] sample size  

[tex]\mu_o =22100[/tex] represent the value to verify

[tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] represent the significance level

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the p value

Part a

We want to conduct a hypothesis in order to see if the true mean is 22100 or not, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:[tex]\mu = 22100[/tex]  

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]\mu \neq 22100[/tex]  

Part b

We need to find the degrees of freedom given by:

[tex] df =n-1 = 18-1=17[/tex]

And the critical values for this case are:

[tex] t_{\alpha/2}= 2.110[/tex]

Part c

The statistic is given by:

[tex]t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]  (1)  

Replacing the info we got:

[tex]t=\frac{23400-22100}{\frac{1412}{\sqrt{18}}}=3.906[/tex]    

Part d

Since the calculated value is higher than the critical value we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is significantly different from 221100 mi

Solve the equation. 3= x/3.3 what is x=

Answers

Answer:

9.9

Step-by-step explanation:

remember your distribution rules.

x/3.3=3 make sure x is by itself. so take 3*3.3

When you have x divided by a number equaling a number take the number it equals to and multiply by the number that x is being divided by.

3=x/3.3

move 3.3 by multiplying it by 3 which gives you 9.9.

The solution of x in equation 3 = x / 3.3 is,

⇒ x = 9.9

We have to given that;

Expression is,

⇒3 = x / 3.3

Now, We can simplify the equation for x as;

⇒ 3 = x / 3.3

Multiply by 3.3 both side,

⇒ 3 × 3.3 = x

⇒ 9.9 = x

⇒ x = 9.9

Thus, Solution is,

⇒ x = 9.9

A gun mass of 5 kg fired a bullet of mass 10 g with the velocity of 360 km/h. What
is gun’s velocity of pushing behind?

answer fast please

Answers

Answer:

The recoil velocity of the gun is [tex]0.72\,\,\frac{km}{h}[/tex]  and is pointing in opposite direction to the velocity of the bullet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use conservation of linear momentum, which states that the momentum of the bullet (product of the bullet's mass times its speed) should equal in absolute value the momentum of the recoiling gun (its mass times its recoil velocity).

We also write the mass of the bullet in the same units as the mass of the gun (for example kilograms). Mass of the bullet = 0.010 kg

In mathematical terms, we have:

[tex]5\, kg * v= 0.01 \,kg\,* 360\,\frac{km}{h} \\v=\frac{0.01\,*360}{5} \,\,\frac{km}{h}\\v=0.72\,\,\frac{km}{h}[/tex]

f(x)=x^3-3x^2-9x+4 find the intervals on which f is increasing or decreasing b. find the local maximum and minimum values of f. c. find the intervals of concavity and inflection points

Answers

Answer:

Please read the complete answer below!

Step-by-step explanation:

You have the following function:

[tex]f(x)=x^3-3x^2-9x+4[/tex]   (1)

a) To find the interval on which f is increasing or decreasing, you first calculate the critical points of f(x).

You calculate the derivative f(x) respect to x:

[tex]\frac{df}{dx}=3x^2-6x-9[/tex]    (2)

Next, you equal the derivative to zero, and then you find the roots of the polynomial by using the quadratic formula:

[tex]3x^2-6x-9=0\\\\x_{1,2}=\frac{-(-6)\pm\sqrt{(-6)^2-4(3)(-9)}}{2(3)}\\\\x_{1,2}=\frac{6\pm12}{6}\\\\x_1=-1\\\\x_2=3[/tex]

Then, the critical points are x=-1 and x=3

Next, you calculate df/dx for a values of x to the left and to the right of the critical points x1 and x2. If df/dx < 0 the function is decreasing, if df/dx > 0 the function is increasing.

for x = -1.01

[tex]\frac{df(-1.01)}{dx}=3(-1.01)^2-6(-1.01)-9=0.12[/tex]

Then, in the interval (-∞,-1), the function is increasing

for x = -0.99

[tex]\frac{df(-0.99)}{dx}=3(-0.99)^2-6(-0.99)-9=-0.11[/tex]

In the interval (-1,3) the function is decreasing

for x = 3.01

[tex]\frac{df(3.01)}{dx}=3(3.01)^2-6(3.01)-9=0.12[/tex]

In the interval (3,+∞) the function is increasing

b) To find the local minimum and maximum you use the second derivative of the function:

[tex]\frac{d^2f}{dx^2}=6x-6[/tex]     (3)

you evaluate the second derivative for the critical points x1 and x2, if the second derivative is positive, you have a local minimum. If the second derivative is negative, you have a local maximum:

for x1 = -1

[tex]6(-1)-6=-12<0[/tex]

x=-1 is a local maximum

for x2 = 3

[tex]6(3)-6=12>0[/tex]

x=3 is a local minimum

c) upward concavity: (-1,3)

downward concavity: (-∞,-1)U(3,+∞)

The inflection points are calculated with the second derivative equal to zero:

[tex]6x-6=0\\\\x=1[/tex]

For x = 1 you have an inflection point

A tank contains 24 gallons of water when all of a sudden the water begins draining at a constant rate of 2 gallons per hour. Let t represent the number of hours since the water began draining and let v represent the volume of water in the tank.

Required:
a. Write a formula that expresses v in terms of t.
b. As t increases from 3 to 6, v varies from _________ to _________

Answers

Answer:

a) [tex]V(t) = 24 - 2t[/tex]

b) As t increases from 3 to 6, v varies from 18 gallons to 12 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the tank in terms of the time can be described by the following equation:

[tex]V(t) = V(0) - at[/tex]

In which V(0) is the initial volume and a is the hourly decrease rate.

a. Write a formula that expresses v in terms of t.

The tank initially contains 24 gallons of water, which means that [tex]V(0) = 24[/tex]

Drains at a constant rate of 2 gallons per hour, so [tex]a = 2[/tex]

Then

[tex]V(t) = V(0) - at[/tex]

[tex]V(t) = 24 - 2t[/tex]

b. As t increases from 3 to 6, v varies from _________ to _________

[tex]V(t) = 24 - 2t[/tex]

[tex]V(3) = 24 - 2*3 = 18[/tex]

[tex]V(6) = 24 - 2*6 = 12[/tex]

So as t increases from 3 to 6, v varies from 18 gallons to 12 gallons.

The breaking strength of a rivet has a mean of 10,000 psi and a standard deviation of 714.2857 psi. What is the probability that the sample mean breaking strength for a random sample of 49 rivets is between 9,832 and 10,200?

Answers

Answer:

[tex] z= \frac{9832- 10000}{\frac{714.2857}{\sqrt{49}}}= -1.646[/tex]

[tex] z= \frac{10200- 10000}{\frac{714.2857}{\sqrt{49}}}= 1.96[/tex]

And we can use the normal standard distribution table or excel and we can  find the probability with this difference:

[tex] P(-1.646 <z< 1.96) =P(z<1.96) -P(z<-1.646) =0.975-0.0499= 0.9251[/tex]

Then the probability that the sample mean breaking strength for a random sample of 49 rivets is between 9,832 and 10,200 is 0.9251

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following info given:

[tex] \mu = 10000[/tex] represent the mean

[tex] \sigma = 714.2857[/tex] represent the deviation

[tex] n = 49[/tex] represent the sample size selected

For this case since the sample size is large enough n>30 we have enough evidence to use the central llmit theorem and the distribution for the sample mena would be given by:

[tex] \bar X \sim N(\mu,\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}) [/tex]

And we want to find the following probability:

[tex] P(9832 < \bar X< 10200)[/tex]

And we can use the z score formula given by:

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

And if we use the z score formula for the limits  given we got:

[tex] z= \frac{9832- 10000}{\frac{714.2857}{\sqrt{49}}}= -1.646[/tex]

[tex] z= \frac{10200- 10000}{\frac{714.2857}{\sqrt{49}}}= 1.96[/tex]

And we can use the normal standard distribution table or excel and we can  find the probability with this difference:

[tex] P(-1.646 <z< 1.96) =P(z<1.96) -P(z<-1.646) =0.975-0.0499= 0.9251[/tex]

Then the probability that the sample mean breaking strength for a random sample of 49 rivets is between 9,832 and 10,200 is 0.9251

Two events, A and B.

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

In which P(B|A) is the probability of B happening when A has happened and P(A|B) is the probability of A happening when B has happened.

In this question:

Event A: Having a college degree.

Event B: Voting for Scott Walker.

They found that 57% of the respondents voted in favor of Scott Walker.

This means that [tex]P(B) = 0.57[/tex]

Additionally, they estimated that of those who did vote in favor for Scott Walker, 33% had a college degree

This means that [tex]P(A|B) = 0.33[/tex]

Probability of having a college degree.

33% of those who voted for Scott Walker(57%).

45% of those who voted against Scott Walker(100 - 57 = 43%). So

[tex]P(A) = 0.33*0.57 + 0.45*0.43 = 0.3816[/tex]

What is the probability that he voted in favor of Scott Walker?

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{0.57*0.33}{0.3816} = 0.4929[/tex]

0.4929 = 49.29% probability that he voted in favor of Scott Walker

Step-by-step explanation:

Three potential employees took an aptitude test. Each person took a different version of the test. The scores are reported below. Norma got a score of 84.2; this version has a mean of 67.4 and a standard deviation of 14. Pierce got a score of 276.8; this version has a mean of 264 and a standard deviation of 16. Reyna got a score of 7.62; this version has a mean of 7.3 and a standard deviation of 0.8. If the company has only one position to fill and prefers to fill it with the applicant who performed best on the aptitude test, which of the applicants should be offered the job?

Answers

Answer:

Due to the higher z-score, Norma should be offered the job

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score:

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question:

Whoever has the higher z-score should get the job.

Norma:

Norma got a score of 84.2; this version has a mean of 67.4 and a standard deviation of 14.

This means that [tex]X = 84.2 \mu = 67.4, \sigma = 14[/tex]

So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{84.2 - 67.4}{14}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.2[/tex]

Pierce:

Pierce got a score of 276.8; this version has a mean of 264 and a standard deviation of 16.

This means that [tex]X = 276.8, \mu = 264, \sigma = 16[/tex]

So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{276.8 - 264}{16}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.8[/tex]

Reyna:

Reyna got a score of 7.62; this version has a mean of 7.3 and a standard deviation of 0.8.

This means that [tex]X = 7.62, \mu = 7.3, \sigma = 0.8[/tex]

So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{7.62 - 7.3}{0.8}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.4[/tex]

Due to the higher z-score, Norma should be offered the job
