Answer:
The one with the better deal would be 30 ride tickets for $22.50 this is because you pay less money for more rides.
Step-by-step explanation:
First you divide 20 by 14. Doing this will give you the cost of a ride per ticket.
20/14 = 1.42
Then you do the same thing to 30 and 22.50.
30/22.50 = 1.30
Last you compare which deal has less money per ride.
1.42 > 1.30

Q 2.20: In a survey, there are two categories of respondents, employed and unemployed people, and two options, A and B. The proportion of those who have chosen option B is greater than 0.5 among the total number of the respondents, but is lower than 0.5 among the unemployed respondents. We know that 314 employed and 512 unemployed people chose option A and 356 employed chose option B. How many unemployed people chose option B
Answer:
The answer is 508
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution
First of all, the proportion of B is exceeds 0.5 in total.
Now,
To find the total of A it we have A =314 +512 = 826
The number of employed that choose B = 356
For us to have the proportion of B to be higher than the 0.5, the unemployed B from what is shown here should exceed the difference between total A and B employed
what this suggest is that the employed B is greater than 826-356 = 470
So,
The respondent that are unemployed that choose B must be greater than 470
Thus,
We recall that the B proportion among the unemployed respondent is lesser than .50
Thus suggests that the respondent that are unemployed who choose be is lesser than 512
The conditions becomes
470 lesser than the number of unemployed respondents who selected B lesser than 512
Hence the needed number of the number of unemployed respondents who chose B should be between 470 and 512
So, possible answer here is 508.
There is a bag with only red marbles and blue marbles.
The probability of randomly choosing a red marble is
7/10
There are 42 red marbles in the bag and each is equally likely to be chosen.
How many marbles in total must there be?
Answer:
There are 60 marbles in the bag
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of marbles times the probability of red marbles = number of red marbles
total * 7/10 = 42
Multiply each side by 10/7
total * 7/10 * 10/7 = 42*10/7
total
60
There are 60 marbles in the bag

What is the equation of the line that passes through (5, -2) and (-3, 4)?
Answer:
y = (-3/4)x + 7/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define general form of equation of line
An equation of a straight line on two-dimensional plane could be represented in form of: y = Mx + b, with M is slope and b is y-intercept
Step 2: Set up the system to solve for parameters of equation of line
(solve for M and b)
That equation passes 2 points, which are represented in form of (x, y), (5, -2) and (-3, 4).
Substitute these values of x and y into the original equation in step 1:
-2 = 5M + b
4 = -3M + b
Step 3: Solve the system of equations in step 2 for M and b
Subtract 1st equation from 2nd equation:
6 = -8M
=> M = -6/8 = -3/4
Substitute M back into 1st equation:
=> -2 = 5*(-3/4) + b
=> b = -2 + 15/4
=> b = 7/4
=> The equation of the line that passes through (5, -2) and (-3, 4):
y = (-3/4)x + 7/4

Answer:
Y= -4/3(x-7/2)
Step-by-step explanation:
So first calculate the difference between them,
changes by 8 x units, and -6 y units.
Then substitute them into y/x to find gradient
-6/8 = -4/3
so now we have a part of the equation:
Y= -4/3(x-a)
substitute Y= -2 and x=5 (from (5,-2))
-2= -4/3(5-a)
-2= -20/3+4a/3
Multiply by 3 on both sides
-6= -20+4a
add 20 on both sides
14=4a
a=7/2
use this as the value of a
Y= -4/3(x-7/2)

Which are steps that could be used to solve 0 = 9(x2 + 6x) – 18 by completing the square? Check all that apply. 18 + 81 = 9(x2 + 6x + 9) 18 + 9 = 9(x2 + 6x + 9) 18 + 36 = 9(x2 + 6x + 36) 11 = (x + 3)2 StartRoot 342 EndRoot = (x + 6)2 StartRoot 99 EndRoot = (x + 3)2
Answer:
18 + 81 = 9(x² + 6x + 9)
11 = (x + 3)²
When we are completing the square, we are going to move the value of c across the equals. We will do that by adding, and end up with
18=9(x²+6x)
We take the value of b (the coefficient of x), divide it by 2 and square it:
(6/2)²=3²=9
This is the value that completes the square. However, since the entire square is multiplied by 9, this value must be multiplied by 9 before we can add it across the equals:
18+9(9) = 9(x²+6x+9)
18+81=9(x²+6x+9)
99=9(x²+6x+9)
Dividing both sides by 9, we have:
11=x²+6x+9
11=(x+3)²
Answer:
18 + 81 = 9(x2 + 6x + 9) and 11 = (x + 3)2

Adam earns $45,000 in his first year as an accountant and earns a 3% increase in each
successive year.
(a) Write a geometric series formula,
n S
, for Adam’s total earnings over
n
years.
(b) Use this formula to find Adam’s total earnings for her first 12 years of his job, to the nearest
cent.
Answer:
$638641.33
Step-by-step explanation:
Adam earns $45,000 in his first year.
His salary increases by 3% each successive year. Therefore, his salary the next year is 103% of his previous year.
This is a geometric sequence where the:
First Term, a= $45,000Common ratio, r =103%=1.03(a)
Sum of geometric series[tex]=\dfrac{a(r^n-1)}{r-1}[/tex]
Substituting the given values, Adam's total earnings over n years
[tex]=\dfrac{45000(1.03^n-1)}{1.03-1}\\\\$Adam's Total Earnings=\dfrac{45000(1.03^n-1)}{0,03}[/tex]
(b)When n=12 years
[tex]\text{Adam's Total Earnings for the first 12 years=}\dfrac{45000(1.03^{12}-1)}{0.03}\\=\$638641.33$ (correct to the nearest cent)[/tex]

A circular garden has a diameter of 12 feet. About how much trim is needed to surround the garden by placing trim on the garden's circumference? 38 ft or 48 ft or 144 ft or 432 ft
Answer:
About 38 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for a circle's circumference is 2 times pi times r, which is the radius.
Since the diameter is 12, the radius is half the diameter, so the radius is 6.
2 times pi times 6 is about 37.7 feet, or 38 feet.

Answer:
The lines would intersect at: (6, -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
I graphed both lines.
Answer:
(4,-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for the graphed line is [tex]y=\frac{1}{2} x-4[/tex] as it has a slope of [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] and a y-intercept of -4.
Now that we have the two equations, we can set them equal to each other to find the x-value at which they intersect
[tex]\frac{1}{2} x-4=-x+2[/tex]
First, we can add 4 to each side
[tex]\frac{1}{2} x=-x+6[/tex]
Then we can add x to each side
[tex]\frac{3}{2} x=6[/tex]
Now we need to divide both side by [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex], which is the same thing as multiplying by [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
[tex]x=6*\frac{2}{3} \\\\x=\frac{12}{3} \\\\x=4[/tex]
Now that we have the x-value, we can plug it into one of the equations to see the y-value for where they intersect.
[tex]y=-x+2\\\\y=-(4)+2\\\\y=-2[/tex]
This means that the coordinates for the intersection of these two lines would be [tex](4,-2)[/tex]
Suppose you are planning an experiment and a sample has yet been selected. For this experiment you plan on taking a SRS of 50 mice with pancreatic cancer measuring a particular hormone level. What would be the impact on a 95% confidence interval calculated from the experiment on these mice if instead of a SRS of 50 mice, a SRS of 200 mice were taken?
Answer:
The width or range of the confidence interval with sample size 200 will be about half of that of the confidence interval with sample 50.
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence Interval for the population mean is basically an interval of range of values where the true population mean can be found with a certain level of confidence.
Mathematically,
Confidence Interval = (Sample mean) ± (Margin of error)
Margin of Error is the width of the confidence interval about the mean.
It is given mathematically as,
Margin of Error = (Critical value) × (standard Error of the mean)
Confidence Interval = (Sample mean) ± [(Critical value) × (standard Error of the mean)
- For the two random samples, of sizes 50 and 200, the Central limit theorem allows us to say that the sample mean is approximately equal to the population mean as this random sample satisfies the condition of being a simple random sample and a distribution obtained from a normal distribution.
- Making the right assumption that population standard deviation is known and z-distribution is used to find the critical value
Critical value for 95% = 1.96
The critical value for both samples are the same then.
- Standard Error of the mean = σₓ = (σ/√n)
where σ = population standard deviation
n = sample size
For the two distributions
Confidence Interval = (Sample mean) ± [(Critical value) × (Standard Error of the mean)
(Sample mean)₅₀ = (Sample mean)₂₀₀
(Critical value)₅₀ = (Critical value)₂₀₀
(Standard Error of the mean)₅₀ = (σ/√50) = 0.1414σ
(Standard Error of the mean)₂₀₀ = (σ/√200) = 0.0707σ
0.1414σ = 2 × 0.0707σ
(Standard Error of the mean)₅₀ = 2 × (Standard Error of the mean)₂₀₀
(Standard Error of the mean)₅₀ > (Standard Error of the mean)₂₀₀
Hence,
(Margin of Error)₅₀ > (Margin of Error)₂₀₀
(Margin of Error)₅₀ = 2 × (Margin of Error)₂₀₀
Confidence Interval = (Sample mean) ± (Margin of error)
Hence, the width or range of the confidence interval with sample size 50 will be about two times larger than the confidence interval with sample 200.

An architect creates a scale model. The volume of the scale model is 0.1 cubic meters. The volume of the real-world
building is 100,000 cubic meters. What is the ratio of corresponding sides from model to real world?
Answer:
1:0.4641
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that the scale of the model with respect to the real world is 0.1 cubic meter. This means that for every 1 cubic meter in the real world the model represents 0.1.
They tell us that the real world volume is 100,000, that if we assume a cube, we have to:
V = l ^ 3
l = 100000 ^ (1/3)
l = 46.41
46.41 meters would be each side, now the volume of the model would be:
100,000 * 0.1 = 10,000
Which means that its sides would be:
V = l ^ 3
l = 100000 ^ (1/3)
l = 21.54
We calculate the scale of the sides:
21.54 / 46.41 = 0.4641
Which means that for every 1 meter in the real world the model represents 0.4641 meters.

the infinite sum.
Answer:
a). r = [tex]\frac{6}{7}[/tex]
b). At least 5 terms should be added.
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula representing sum of infinite geometric sequence is,
[tex]S_{\inf}=\frac{a}{1-r}[/tex]
Where a = first term of the sequence
r = common ratio
a). If the sum is seven times the value of its first term.
[tex]7a=\frac{a}{1-r}[/tex]
[tex]7=\frac{1}{1-r}[/tex]
7(1 - r) = 1
7 - 7r = 1
7r = 7 - 1
7r = 6
r = [tex]\frac{6}{7}[/tex]
b). Since sum of n terms of the geometric sequence is given by,
[tex]S_{n}=\frac{a(1-r^{n})}{1-r}[/tex]
If the sum of n terms of this sequence is more than half the value of the infinite sum.
[tex]\frac{a[1-(\frac{6}{7})^{n}]}{1-\frac{6}{7}}[/tex] > [tex]\frac{7a}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1-(\frac{6}{7})^{n}}{1-\frac{6}{7}}> \frac{7}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1-(\frac{6}{7})^{n}}{\frac{1}{7}}> \frac{7}{2}[/tex]
[tex]1-(\frac{6}{7})^{n}> \frac{7}{2}\times \frac{1}{7}[/tex]
[tex]1-(\frac{6}{7})^{n}> \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex]-(\frac{6}{7})^{n}> -\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex](\frac{6}{7})^{n}< \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
[tex](0.85714)^{n}< (0.5)[/tex]
n[log(0.85714)] < log(0.5)
-n(0.06695) < -0.30102
n > [tex]\frac{0.30102}{0.06695}[/tex]
n > 4.496
n > 4.5
Therefore, at least 5 terms of the sequence should be added.
An online shopping website collected data regarding its operations and obtained the following linear regression model for the estimated revenue in millions, Y-hat, based on the click-through rate in thousands, x. Y-hat = 1.2+0.2x
What is the best interpretation of the value of the estimated slope of 0.2?
Answer:
There is an estimated increase in revenue of $0.2 million for each 1,000 additional clicks
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope (0.2) is the rate of change in Y-hat for each unit change in x.
In this specific case, since Y-hat is the revenue, in millions, and x is the number of clicks, in thousands, the best interpretation is that there is an estimated increase in revenue of $0.2 million for each 1,000 additional clicks
