Answer: The x-intercept is 4 and the y-intercept is 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
The x is intercept is when y is 0 and the y intercept is when x is 0.So using this information you can put in 0 for x and another 0 for y and solve for the x and y intercepts.
7(0) + 14y = 28
0 + 14y = 28
14y = 28
y = 2
7x + 14(0) = 28
7x + 0 = 28
7x = 28
x = 4
The [tex]x[/tex]-intercept of the given equation is [tex]4[/tex] and the [tex]y[/tex]-intercept is [tex]2[/tex].
Given:
The equation is:
[tex]7x+14y=28[/tex]
To find:
The [tex]x[/tex]-intercept and [tex]y[/tex]-intercept of the given equation.
Explanation:
We have,
[tex]7x+14y=28[/tex] ...(i)
Substitute [tex]x=0[/tex] in (i) to find the [tex]y[/tex]-intercept.
[tex]7(0)+14y=28[/tex]
[tex]14y=28[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{14y}{14}=\dfrac{28}{14}[/tex]
[tex]y=2[/tex]
Substitute [tex]y=0[/tex] in (i) to find the [tex]x[/tex]-intercept.
[tex]7x+14(0)=28[/tex]
[tex]7x=28[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{7x}{7}=\dfrac{28}{7}[/tex]
[tex]x=4[/tex]
Therefore, the [tex]x[/tex]-intercept of the given equation is [tex]4[/tex] and the [tex]y[/tex]-intercept is [tex]2[/tex].

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is incomplete. The complete question is:
A group of professors investigated first-year college students' knowledge of astronomy. One concept of interest was the Big Bang theory of the creation of the universe. In a sample of 149 freshmen students, 32 believed that the Big Bang theory accurately described the creation of planetary systems. Based on this information, is it correct at the alpha = 0.01 level of significance to state that more than 20% of all freshmen college students believe the Big Bang theory describes the creation of planetary systems? State the null and alternative hypotheses. Choose the correct answer below. H_0: p = 0.20 H_a: p not equal to 0.20 H_0: p not equal to 0.20 H_a: p = 0.20 H_0: p = 0.20 H_a: p 0.20 If alpha = 0.05, find the rejection region for the test. Choose the correct answer below. z > 1.645 z > 1.96 z
Solution:
We would set up the null and alternative hypothesis. The correct options are
For null hypothesis,
p ≥ 0.2
For alternative hypothesis,
p < 0.2
This is a left tailed test.
Considering the population proportion, probability of success, p = 0.2
q = probability of failure = 1 - p
q = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8
Considering the sample,
Sample proportion, P = x/n
Where
x = number of success = 32
n = number of samples = 149
P = 32/149 = 0.21
We would determine the test statistic which is the z score
z = (P - p)/√pq/n
z = (0.21 - 0.2)/√(0.2 × 0.8)/149 = 0.31
The calculated test statistic is 0.31 for the right tail and - 0.31 for the left tail
Since α = 0.05, the critical value is determined from the normal distribution table.
For the left, α/2 = 0.05/2 = 0.025
The z score for an area to the left of 0.025 is - 1.96
For the right, α/2 = 1 - 0.025 = 0.975
The z score for an area to the right of 0.975 is 1.96
In order to reject the null hypothesis, the test statistic must be smaller than - 1.96 or greater than 1.96
Therefore, the rejection region is z > 1.96

A boy is playing a ball in a garden surrounded by a wall 2.5 m high and kicks the ball vertically up from a height of 0.4 m with a speed of 14 m/s. For how long is the ball above
the height of the wall.
Answer:
2.54 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the following equation to model the vertical position of the ball:
S = So + Vo*t + a*t^2/2
Where S is the final position, So is the inicial position, Vo is the inicial speed, a is the acceleration and t is the time.
Then, using S = 2.5, So = 0.4, Vo = 14 and a = -9.8 m/s2, we have that:
2.5 = 0.4 + 14*t - 4.9t^2
4.9t^2 - 14t + 2.1 = 0
Solving this quadratic equation, we have that t1 = 2.6983 s and t2 = 0.1588 s.
Between these times, the ball will be higher than 2.5 m, so the amount of time the ball will be higher than 2.5 m is:
t1 - t2 = 2.6983 - 0.1588 = 2.54 seconds

49% of U.S. adults have very little confidence in newspapers. You randomly select 10 U.S. adults. Find the probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is (a) exactly five, (b) at least six, and (c) less than four.
Answer:
a) P(x=5) = 0.2456
b) P(x≥6) = 0.3526
c) P(x<4) = 0.1887
Step-by-step explanation:
We can model this as a binomial experiment, with sample size n=10 and p=0.49.
To calculate the probability of having k subjects with very little confidence in the sample of 10, we solve:
[tex]P(x=k) = \dbinom{n}{k} p^{k}q^{n-k}[/tex]
a) We have to calculate P(x=5).
For a binomial variable with n=10 and p=0.49, this can be calculated as:
[tex]P(x=5) = \dbinom{10}{5} p^{5}q^{5}=252*0.0282*0.0345=0.2456\\\\[/tex]
b) We have to calculate P(x≥6). This can be calculated as:
[tex]P(x\geq6)=P(x=6)+P(x=7)+P(x=8)+P(x=9)+P(x=10)\\\\\\P(x=6) = \binom{10}{6} p^{6}q^{4}=210*0.0138*0.0677=0.1966\\\\P(x=7) = \binom{10}{7} p^{7}q^{3}=120*0.0068*0.1327=0.1080\\\\P(x=8) = \binom{10}{8} p^{8}q^{2}=45*0.0033*0.2601=0.0389\\\\P(x=9) = \binom{10}{9} p^{9}q^{1}=10*0.0016*0.51=0.0083\\\\P(x=10) = \binom{10}{10} p^{10}q^{0}=1*0.0008*1=0.0008\\\\\\P(x\geq6)=0.1966+0.1080+0.0389+0.0083+0.0008\\\\P(x\geq6)=0.3526[/tex]
c) We have to calculate P(x<4). That is:
[tex]P(x<4)=P(x=0)+P(x=1)+P(x=2)+P(x=3)\\\\\\P(x=0) = \binom{10}{0} p^{0}q^{10}=1*1*0.0012=0.0012\\\\P(x=1) = \binom{10}{1} p^{1}q^{9}=10*0.49*0.0023=0.0114\\\\P(x=2) = \binom{10}{2} p^{2}q^{8}=45*0.2401*0.0046=0.0494\\\\P(x=3) = \binom{10}{3} p^{3}q^{7}=120*0.1176*0.009=0.1267\\\\\\P(x<4)=0.0012+0.0114+0.0494+0.1267\\\\P(x<4)=0.1887[/tex]

Z=1.23 z=0.86 WHAT is the area of the shaded region between the two
Answer:
The area of the shaded region between [tex] \\ z = 1.23[/tex] and [tex] \\ z = 0.86[/tex] is [tex] \\ P(0.86 < z < 1.23) = 0.08554[/tex] or 8.554%.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to find the corresponding probabilities for the standardized values (or z-scores) z = 1.23 and z = 0.86, and then subtract both to obtain the area of the shaded region between these two z-scores.
We need to having into account that a z-score is given by the following formula:
[tex] \\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
Where
x is a raw score from the distribution that we want to standardize using [1].[tex] \\ \mu[/tex] is the mean of the normal distribution.[tex] \\ \sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the normal distribution.A z-score indicates the distance of x from the mean in standard deviations units, where a positive value "tell us" that x is above [tex] \\ \mu[/tex], and conversely, a negative that x is below [tex] \\ \mu[/tex].
The standard normal distribution is a normal distribution with [tex] \\ \mu = 0[/tex] and [tex] \\ \sigma = 1[/tex], and has probabilities for standardized values obtained using [1]. All these probabilities are tabulated in the standard normal table (available in any Statistical book or on the Internet).
Using the cumulative standard normal table, for [tex] \\ z = 1.23[/tex], the corresponding cumulative probability is:
[tex] \\ P(z<1.23) = 0.89065[/tex]
The steps are as follows:
Consult the cumulative standard table using z = 1.2 as an entry. Z-scores are in the first column of the mentioned table. In the first row of it we have +0.00, +0.01, +0.02 and, finally, +0.03. The probability is the point that result from the intersection of z = 1.2 and +0.03 in the table, which is [tex] \\ P(z<1.23) = 0.89065[/tex].Following the same procedure, the cumulative probability for [tex] \\ z = 0.86[/tex] is:
[tex] \\ P(z<0.86) = 0.80511[/tex]
Subtracting both probabilities (because we need to know the area between these two values) we finally obtain the corresponding area between them (two z-scores):
[tex] \\ P(0.86 < z < 1.23) = 0.89065 - 0.80511[/tex]
[tex] \\ P(0.86 < z < 1.23) = 0.08554[/tex]
Therefore, the area of the shaded region between [tex] \\ z = 1.23[/tex] and [tex] \\ z = 0.86[/tex] is [tex] \\ P(0.86 < z < 1.23) = 0.08554[/tex] or 8.554%.
We can see this resulting area (red shaded area) in the graph below for a standard normal distribution, [tex] \\ N(0, 1)[/tex], and [tex] \\ z = 0.86[/tex] and [tex] \\ z = 1.23[/tex].

Find the median of the data in the dot plot below.
The value of the median is 25 from the dot plot because the middle value is 25 on the dot plot,
What is the median?A median is a middle number in a series of numbers that have been arranged to lift, and it might be more informative of the set of data than the average. When there are extremes in the sequences that might affect the average of the numbers, the median is sometimes employed instead of the mean.
We have a dot plot shown in the picture.
As we can see in the dot plot there are a total of 9 dots.
4 dots left side and 4 dots right side.
One dot is left which is pointing to the value 25 at the number line.
Thus, the value of the median is 25 from the dot plot because the middle value is 25 on the dot plot,

Answer without actually performing the reexpression. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)s^2 =______ hr^2s = ______hr
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean = (87 + 105 + 130 + 160 + 180 + 195 + 135 + 145 + 213 + 105 + 145 + 151 152 + 136 + 87 + 99 + 92 + 119 + 129)/19 = 129
Variance = (summation(x - mean)²/n
Standard deviation = √(summation(x - mean)²/n
n = 19
Variance = [(87 - 129)^2 + (105 - 129)^2 + (130 - 129)^2+ (160 - 129)^2 + (180 - 129)^2 + (195 - 129)^2 + (135 - 129)^2 + (145 - 129)^2 + (213 - 129)^2 + (105 - 129)^2 + (145 - 129)^2 + (151 - 129)^2 + (152 - 129)^2 + (136 - 129)^2 + (87 - 129)^2 + (99 - 129)^2 + (92 - 129)^2 + (119 - 129)^2 + (129 - 129)^2]/19 = 23634/19 1243.895 min
Standard deviation = √1243.895 = 35.269 min
60 minutes = 1 hour
Converting the variance to hours,
Each division would have been divided by 60². 60² can be factorized out
Variance = 23634/60² = 6.565 hours
Converting the standard deviation to hours, it becomes
√6.565 = 2.562 hours

A driver and a passenger are in a car accident. Each of them independently has probability 0.3 of being hospitalized. When a hospitalization occurs, the loss is uniformly distributed on [0, 1]. When two hospitalizations occur, the losses are independent. Calculate the expected number of people in the car who are hospitalized, given that the total loss due to hospitalizations from the accident is less than 1.
Answer:
0.534
Step-by-step explanation:
p(0 losses) = 0.7² = 0.49
p(1 loss) = 2 x 0.3 x 0.7 = 0.42
p(2 losses) = 0.09
This is a conditional probability problem. If the number of people hospitalized is 0 or 1, then the total loss will be less than 1. However, if two people are hospitalized, the probability that the total loss will be less than 1 is 0.5. we need to exclude the 50% x 0.09 chance of a double loss costing more than 1. So
P(Cost < 1)
= 0.49 + 0.42 +0.045
= 0.955
P(0 losses | Cost < 1)
= P(0 losses and Cost < 1) / P(Cost < 1)
= 0.49 / 0.955 = 0.513
P(1 loss | Cost < 1)
= 0.42 / 0.955 = 0.440
P(2 losses | Cost < 1) = 0.045 / 0.955 = 0.047
Now take the expectation:
E[X] = (0)(0.513) + (1)(0.440) + (2)(0.047)
= 0.440 + 0.094
= 0.534
Suppose that a large mixing tank initially holds 100 gallons of water in which 50 pounds of salt have been dissolved. Another brine solution is pumped into the tank at a rate of 3 gal/min, and when the solution is well stirred, it is then pumped out at a slower rate of 2 gal/min. If the concentration of the solution entering is 4 lb/gal, determine a differential equation (in lb/min) for the amount of salt A(t) (in lb) in the tank at time t > 0. (Use A for A(t).)
Answer:
dA/dt = 12 - 2A/(100 + t)
Step-by-step explanation:
The differential equation of this problem is;
dA/dt = R_in - R_out
Where;
R_in is the rate at which salt enters
R_out is the rate at which salt exits
R_in = (concentration of salt in inflow) × (input rate of brine)
We are given;
Concentration of salt in inflow = 4 lb/gal
Input rate of brine = 3 gal/min
Thus;
R_in = 4 × 3 = 12 lb/min
Due to the fact that solution is pumped out at a slower rate, thus it is accumulating at the rate of (3 - 2)gal/min = 1 gal/min
So, after t minutes, there will be (100 + t) gallons in the tank
Therefore;
R_out = (concentration of salt in outflow) × (output rate of brine)
R_out = [A(t)/(100 + t)]lb/gal × 2 gal/min
R_out = 2A(t)/(100 + t) lb/min
So, we substitute the values of R_in and R_out into the Differential equation to get;
dA/dt = 12 - 2A(t)/(100 + t)
Since we are to use A foe A(t), thus the Differential equation is now;
dA/dt = 12 - 2A/(100 + t)
A fast food hamburger restaurant uses 3,500 lbs. of hamburger each week. The manager of the restaurant wants to ensure that the meat is always fresh i.e. the meat should be no more than two days old on average when used. How much hamburger should be kept in the refrigerator as inventory
Answer:
The peak inventory will be 2 sales days of hamburguers, which is equivalent to 7,000 lbs. As they are consumed in 2 days, the average inventory is 3,500 lbs.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the meat should be no more than two days old on average when used, the stock of hamburguer in the refrigerator has to be at most the equivalent to 2 day of sales.
The "2 days old" represents the inventory turnover.
If we use all the hamburguers in the refrigerator and refill inmediatly, the average inventory is:
[tex]\bar I=\dfrac{\text{Beginning inventory}+\text{Ending inventory}}{2}\\\\\\\bar I=\dfrac{2*3,500+0}{2}=3,500[/tex]
The peak inventory will be 2 sales days of hamburguers, which is equivalent to 7,000 lbs. As they are consumed in 2 days, the average inventory is 3,500 lbs.

YOU HAVE TO LOOK CLOSLY TO SEE THE NUMBERS ON THE TRIANGLE
IN CASE YOU CANNOT ON THE LEFT IT IS 15CM AND ON THE BOTTOM IT IS 14 CM
Find the unknown side of the triangle below (round to the nearest tenth).
A) 20.5 cm
B) 210.5 cm
C) 5.4 cm
D) 16 cm
Answer:
A. 20.5
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this equation for the missing side length, X.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
We have a and b, we just need c, the hypotenuse.
14^2 + 15^2 = c^2
196 + 225 = c^2
421 = c^2
Now, we will square both sides:
The answer is about 20.5
The diagram shows a rectangle and a square.

The rectangle is 2 cm long and 6 cm wide.
The perimeter of the rectangle is the same as the perimeter of the square.
Work out the length of one side of the square.
Answer:
4 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The side of the square will be the average of the two sides of the rectangle with the same perimeter.
Formulas for the perimeters are ...
P = 2(L+W)
P = 4s
Equating these gives ...
4s = 2(L+W)
s = (L +W)/2 . . . . . divide by 4
For the given side lengths, ...
s = (2 cm +6 cm)/2 = (8/2) cm = 4 cm
The length of one side of the square is 4 cm.
According to market research, a business has a 75% chance of making money in the first 3 years. According to lab testing, of a certain kind of experimental light bulb will work after 3 years. According to experts, the likelihood of a car needing major repairs in the first 3 years is 0.7. 1. Write the scenarios in order of likelihood from least to greatest after three years: the business makes money, the light bulb still works, and the car needs major repairs.
The question is incomplete! Complete question along with answer and step by step explanation is provided below.
Question:
Here are some scenarios:
According to market research, a business has a 75% chance of making money in the first 3 years.
According to lab testing, 5/6 of a certain kind of experimental light bulb will work after 3 years.
According to experts, the likelihood of a car needing major repairs in the first 3 years is 0.7.
1. Write the scenarios in order of likelihood from least to greatest after three years: the business makes money, the light bulb still works, and the car needs major repairs.
Answer:
The correct order in terms of likelihood from least to greatest would be
P(Car repair) = 0.70 -> P(Business) = 0.75 -> P(Light bulb) = 0.83
Car needs major repairs -> Business makes money -> Light bulb still works
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given probabilities of three different events.
According to market research, a business has a 75% chance of making money in the first 3 years.
P(Business) = 75% = 0.75
According to lab testing, 5/6 of a certain kind of experimental light bulb will work after 3 years.
P(Light bulb) = 5/6 = 0.83
According to experts, the likelihood of a car needing major repairs in the first 3 years is 0.7.
P(Car repair) = 0.70
We are asked to write these scenarios in order of likelihood from least to greatest after three years.
Which means that the events with least probability is less likely to occur.
The least probability is of car repair, then business and then light bulb.
So the correct order in terms of likelihood from least to greatest would be
P(Car repair) = 0.70 -> P(Business) = 0.75 -> P(Light bulb) = 0.83
Car needs major repairs -> Business makes money -> Light bulb still works
Among fatal plane crashes that occurred during the past 65 years, 627 were due to pilot error, 64 were due to other human error, 113 were due to weather, 382 were due to mechanical problems, and 481 were due to sabotage. Construct the relative frequency distribution.
What is the most serious threat to aviation safety, and can anything be done about it?
A. Sabotage is the most serious threat to aviation safety. Airport security could be increased.
B. Mechanical problems are the most serious threat to aviation safety. New planes could be better engineered.
C. Weather is the most serious threat to aviation safety. Weather monitoring systems could be improved.
D. Pilot error isPilot error is the most serious threat to aviation safety. Pilots could be better trained.
Answer:
D. Pilot error isPilot error is the most serious threat to aviation safety. Pilots could be better trained.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can construct the relative frequency distribution dividing the amount of incidents for each category by the total amount of incidents.
This amount is:
[tex]\sum x_i=627+64+113+382+481=1667[/tex]
Then, the relative frequency for each category is:
[tex]\text{Pilot error}=627/1667=0.38\\\\\text{Human error}=64/1667=0.04\\\\\text{Weather}=113/1667=0.07\\\\\text{Mechanical problems}=382/1667=0.23\\\\\text{Sabotage}=481/1667=0.29\\\\[/tex]
As the pilot error has the largest relative frequency, we can conclude that pilot error is the most serious threat to aviation safety.
Here is a solid square-based pyramid.
The base of the pyramid is a square of side 12cm.
The height of the pyramid is 8cm.
X is the midpoint of QR and XT = 10cm.
A) Draw the front elevation of the pyramid from the direction of the arrow. Use a scale of 1 square to 1cm.
B) Work out the total surface area of the pyramid.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A. The front elevation of the pyramid in the direction of the arrow is herewith attached to this answer.
B. Base of the pyramid is a square of side 12 cm.
The height of the pyramid is 8 cm.
Slant height, XT, is 10 cm.
The total surface area of the pyramid can be determined by adding the surface areas that make up the shape.
Area of the triangular face = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × base × slant height
= [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 12 × 10
= 60 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]
Area of the square base = length × length
= 12 × 12
= 144 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]
Total surface area of the pyramid = area of the base + 4 (area of the triangular face)
= 144 + 4(60)
= 144 + 240
= 384 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]
Therefore, total surface area of the pyramid is 384 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex].
