What is the formula to find the area of a triangle
Answer:
A= 1/2bh
Step-by-step explanation:
(how its supposed to be said: Area= one half base times height)
:)
Answer:
(1) As a simple definition, a triangle is a two-dimensional figure that has 3 sides (and 3 angles as well).
(2) A triangle as shown in attached picture has the area that is typical calculated by the multiplication of half of base and height.
A = (1/2) x Base x Height
Base can be a particular side of triangle
Height is the perpendicular line segment between the opposite vertex of selected base and that base.

Identify the type of sampling that is used: A list of all registered voters in a state is given to a researcher who would like to determine if a particular candidate is likely to be elected. The researcher has a computer randomly generate several hundred numbers, and those numbers are used to select names from the list to form a sample. a. systematic b. random c. convenience d. stratified
Answer:
The correct option is (b) random.
Step-by-step explanation:
A simple random sample is a part of a statistical population in which every individual of the population has an equal probability of being selected.
Assigning each individual of the population a unique number and using a computer or random number generator for selection is a procedure to select a simple random sample.
In this case the researcher has a computer randomly generate several hundred numbers, and those numbers are used to select names from the list to form a sample.
The procedure indicates that the researcher used a simple random sampling technique to select the sample.
Thus, the correct option is (b).

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?
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
Write the equation of the line parallel to y+4= 1/4(x+5) and passing through the point (8, 20). Write in the format y = mx + b
Answer:
[tex]y=0.25x+18[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
So first we take the equation we are given and write it in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b):
[tex]y+4= \frac{1}{4} (x+5)\\\\y+4=0.25x +1.25\\\\y=0.25x-2.75[/tex]
Now we know parallel lines have the same slope, so the line we are looking for has a slope of 0.25.
so we can start to set up our equation:
[tex]y=0.25x+b[/tex]
and then substitue in the point (8,20) to find the y-intercept.
[tex]20=0.25(8)+b\\20=2+b\\b=18[/tex]
So now we have our equation:
[tex]y=0.25x+18[/tex]

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?
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

The amount of energy associated with a production of bottled water is approximately Normal with a mean of 8.7 million Joules and a standard deviation 0.5 million Joules. How much energy should be required for the bottom 80% of bottled water?
Answer:
At most 9.12 joules should be required for the bottom 80% of bottled water
Step-by-step explanation:
Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
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, we have that:
[tex]\mu = 8.7, \sigma = 0.5[/tex]
How much energy should be required for the bottom 80% of bottled water?
At most the 80th percentile.
The 80th percentile is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.8. So it is X when Z = 0.84.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]0.84 = \frac{X - 8.7}{0.5}[/tex]
[tex]X - 8.7 = 0.84*0.5[/tex]
[tex]X = 9.12[/tex]
At most 9.12 joules should be required for the bottom 80% of bottled water

The total claim amount for a health insurance policy follows a distribution with density function 1 ( /1000) ( ) 1000 x fx e− = , x > 0. The premium for the policy is set at the expected total claim amount plus 100. If 100 policies are sold, calculate the approximate probability that the insurance company will have claims exceeding the premiums collected.
Answer:
the approximate probability that the insurance company will have claims exceeding the premiums collected is [tex]\mathbf{P(X>1100n) = 0.158655}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of the density function of the total claim amount for the health insurance policy is given as :
[tex]f_x(x) = \dfrac{1}{1000}e^{\frac{-x}{1000}}, \ x> 0[/tex]
Thus, the expected total claim amount [tex]\mu[/tex] = 1000
The variance of the total claim amount [tex]\sigma ^2 = 1000^2[/tex]
However; the premium for the policy is set at the expected total claim amount plus 100. i.e (1000+100) = 1100
To determine the approximate probability that the insurance company will have claims exceeding the premiums collected if 100 policies are sold; we have :
P(X > 1100 n )
where n = numbers of premium sold
[tex]P (X> 1100n) = P (\dfrac{X - n \mu}{\sqrt{n \sigma ^2 }}> \dfrac{1100n - n \mu }{\sqrt{n \sigma^2}})[/tex]
[tex]P(X>1100n) = P(Z> \dfrac{\sqrt{n}(1100-1000}{1000})[/tex]
[tex]P(X>1100n) = P(Z> \dfrac{10*100}{1000})[/tex]
[tex]P(X>1100n) = P(Z> 1) \\ \\ P(X>1100n) = 1-P ( Z \leq 1) \\ \\ P(X>1100n) =1- 0.841345[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{P(X>1100n) = 0.158655}[/tex]
Therefore: the approximate probability that the insurance company will have claims exceeding the premiums collected is [tex]\mathbf{P(X>1100n) = 0.158655}[/tex]

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

Answer:
100 muffins
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a ratio to solve
6 cups 15 cups
------------- = -----------
40 muffins x muffins
Using cross products
6x = 40*15
Divide each side by 6
6x/6 = 40*15/6

Answer:
(a) -2,0 and 2,5 and (b) 2,-1 and 10,9
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
The ordered pairs that are points on the line perpendicular to the line:

The sales tax in Pennsylvania is 4%. If the tax on an item is $94, find the cost of the item
Answer:
$2350
Step-by-step explanation:
If 94 is 4%, multiply it by 25 to get $2350, or 100%
the cost of the item is $ 2350.
To find the cost of the item, we can set up an equation using the information given.
Let's denote the cost of the item as $ x.
According to the given information, the sales tax on the item is 4 % and is equal to $ 94. We can express this as:
0.04 x = 94
To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 0.04:
x = tax on item / sales tax
x = 94 / 0.04
x = 2350
Therefore, the cost of the item is $ 2350.

If a tank holds 4500 gallons of water, which drains from the bottom of the tank in 50 minutes, then Toricelli's Law gives the volume V of water remaining in the tank after t minutes as V = 4500 1 − 1 50 t 2 0≤ t ≤ 50. Find the rate at which water is draining from the tank after the following amounts of time.a) 5 min 855 x gal/min b) 10 min 160 x gal/min c) 20 min 120 x gal/min d) 50 min gal/min
Answer:
a) at 5 minutes: 162 gal/min
b) at 10 minutes: 144 gal/min
c) at 20 minutes: 108 gal/min
d) at 50 minutes: 0 gal/min
Step-by-step explanation:
Considering the formula given by the volume of water remaining in the tank:
[tex]V(t)=4500\,(1-\frac{1}{50} \,t)^2[/tex]we can find the rate of water draining from the tank, (that is change in volume divided elapsed time) with the derivative of the function at the different times. Notice that this function has a decaying curvature (see attached image) of volume as a function of time, and the idea is therefore to find the slope of the tangent line at the different requested times.
So we first calculate the derivative of this function at any time 't":
[tex]V(t)=4500\,(1-\frac{1}{50} \,t)^2\\V'(t)=9000\,(1-\frac{1}{50} \,t)\,(-\frac{1}{50})\\V'(t)=-180(1-\frac{1}{50} \,t)\\V'(t)=-180+3.6\,t[/tex]
And now we estimate this derivative at the different requested points for time values:
a) at 5 minutes: [tex]V'(5)=-180+3.6\,(5) = -162\,\,gal/min[/tex]
b) at 10 minutes: [tex]V'(10)=-180+3.6\,(10) = -144\,\,gal/min[/tex]
c) at 20 minutes: [tex]V'(20)=-180+3.6\,(20) = -108\,\,gal/min[/tex]
d) at 50 minutes: [tex]V'(50)=-180+3.6\,(50) = 0\,\,gal/min[/tex]
All the negative signs preceding indicate that the remaining volume in the tank is reducing as time goes by, so the volume at which the water is draining is actually the absolute value of those numbers.

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
