At snack time, Ms. Rivera passes out 24 cookies to her class. She also passes out 1 glass of lemonade to each student. This equation correctly represents the total number of items distributed, where a is the number of students in the class.

a(2+1)=36
What is the value of a?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:  a = 12

=======================================================

Explanation:

Let's solve the given equation for the variable 'a'

a(2+1) = 36

a*(3) = 36

3a = 36

a = 36/3

a = 12

There are 12 students in the class. This must mean there are 12 lemonades, because each person gets 1 lemonade.

Since there are 24 cookies, each student gets 24/12 = 2 cookies

Since each student gets 2 cookies and 1 lemonade, this is where the "2+1" comes from in the original equation. Each student gets 3 items total, which explains the notation 3a.

Answer 2

The value of 'a' from the given expression would be 13.

Given that;

At snack time, Ms. Rivera passes out 24 cookies to her class. She also passes out 1 glass of lemonade to each student.

Here, the equation is,

a(2+1)=36

Solve for a;

a × 3 = 36

3a = 36

Divide both sides by 3;

a = 36/3

a = 13

Thus, the value of a is 13.

use induction method to prove that 1.2^2+2.3^2+3.4^2+...+r(r+1)^2= n(n+1)(3n^2+11n+10)/12

Answers

Base case (n = 1):

• left side = 1×2² = 4

• right side = 1×(1 + 1)×(3×1² + 11×1 + 10)/12 = 4

Induction hypothesis: Assume equality holds for n = k, so that

1×2² + 2×3² + 3×4² + … + k × (k + 1)² = k × (k + 1) × (3k ² + 11k + 10)/12

Induction step (n = k + 1):

1×2² + 2×3² + 3×4² + … + k × (k + 1)² + (k + 1) × (k + 2)²

= k × (k + 1) × (3k ² + 11k + 10)/12 + (k + 1) × (k + 2)²

= (k + 1)/12 × (k × (3k ² + 11k + 10) + 12 × (k + 2)²)

= (k + 1)/12 × ((3k ³ + 11k ² + 10k) + 12 × (k ² + 4k + 4))

= (k + 1)/12 × (3k ³ + 23k ² + 58k + 48)

= (k + 1)/12 × (3k ³ + 23k ² + 58k + 48)

On the right side, we want to end up with

(k + 1) × (k + 2) × (3 (k + 1) ² + 11 (k + 1) + 10)/12

which suggests that k + 2 should be factor of the cubic. Indeed, we have

3k ³ + 23k ² + 58k + 48 = (k + 2) (3k ² + 17k + 24)

and we can rewrite the remaining quadratic as

3k ² + 17k + 24 = 3 (k + 1)² + 11 (k + 1) + 10

so we would arrive at the desired conclusion.

To see how the above rewriting is possible, we want to find coefficients a, b, and c such that

3k ² + 17k + 24 = a (k + 1)² + b (k + 1) + c

Expand the right side and collect like powers of k :

3k ² + 17k + 24 = ak ² + (2a + b) k + a + b + c

==>   a = 3   and   2a + b = 17   and   a + b + c = 24

==>   a = 3, b = 11, c = 10

Joe used a project management software package and has determined the following results for a given project.: Expected completion time of the project = 22 days Variance of project completion time = 2.77 What is the probability of completing the project over 20 days?

Answers

Answer:

0.1151 = 11.51% probability of completing the project over 20 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Expected completion time of the project = 22 days.

Variance of project completion time = 2.77

This means that [tex]\mu = 22, \sigma = \sqrt{2.77}[/tex]

What is the probability of completing the project over 20 days?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 20, so:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{20 - 22}{\sqrt{2.77}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.2[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.2[/tex] has a p-value of 0.1151.

0.1151 = 11.51% probability of completing the project over 20 days.

Using a profit P1 of $5,000, a profit P2 of $4,500, and a profit P3 of $4,000, calculate a 95% confidence interval for the mean profit per customer that SoftBus can expect to obtain. (Round your answers to one decimal place.) Lower Limit Upper Limit

Answers

Answer:

Confidence Interval

Lower Limit = $4,233.3

Upper Limit = $4,766.7

With 95% confidence, the mean profit per customer that SoftBus can expect to obtain is between $4,233.30 and $4,766.7 based on the given sample data.

Step-by-step explanation:

The z-score of 95% = 1.96

             Profit         Mean      Square Root

                          Difference    of MD

P1        $5,000       $500        $250,000

P2         4,500          0              0

P3         4,000       -500         $250,000

Total $13,500                        $500,000

Mean $4,500 ($13,500/3)    $166,667 ($500,000/3)

Standard Deviation = Square root of $166,667 = 408.2

Margin of error = (z-score * standard deviation)/n

= (1.96 * 408.2)/3

= 266.7

= $266.7

Confidence Interval = Sample mean +/- Margin of error

= $4,500 +/- 266.7

Lower Limit = $4,233.3 ($4,500 - $266.7)

Upper Limit = $4,766.7 ($4,500 + $266.7)

Answers

Answer:

The right solution is:

(a) 0.8849

(b) 12.28%

(c) 4.9935

(d) 28004

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mean,

= 4.5

Standard deviation,

= 0.3

(a)

P(x > 4.14)

As we know,

⇒ [tex]z = \frac{4.14-4.5}{0.3}[/tex]

      [tex]=-1.20[/tex]

then,

⇒ [tex]P(z>-1.20) = P(z<1.20)[/tex]

                          [tex]=0.8849[/tex]

(b)

P(4.8 < x < 5.04)

= [tex]P(\frac{4.8-4.5}{0.3} < \frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{5.04-4.5}{0.3} )[/tex]

= [tex]P(1<z<1.80)[/tex]

= [tex]P(z<1.80)-P(z<1)[/tex]

= [tex]0.9641 -0.8413[/tex]

= [tex]0.1228[/tex]

or,

= [tex]12.28[/tex] (%)

(c)

P(x > x) = 0.05

z value will be,

= 1.645

⇒ [tex]1.645 = \frac{x - 4.5}{0.3}[/tex]

         [tex]x = 4.9935[/tex]

(d)

P(x < 5.01)

⇒ [tex]z = \frac{x- \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

      [tex]=\frac{5.01-4.5}{0.3}[/tex]

      [tex]=1.7[/tex]

P(z < 1.70) = 0.9554

⇒ [tex]n = \frac{27875}{0.9954}[/tex]

       [tex]=28004[/tex]

7 people can pave a driveway in 9 hours. how long will it take for 11 people to pave a driveway? ​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If 7 people can pave the drive in 9 hours, we can use that information in equation form to find out how long it would take 1 person to pave the drive alone.

[tex]\frac{7}{x}=\frac{1}{9}[/tex] and cross multiply

x = 63. That means that it would take 1 person, working alone, 63 hours to get the job done. If that be the case, and assuming that the 2 added people work at the same rate as do the first 9, we simply divide that time alone into 11 parts.

It would take 11 people [tex]5.\bar{27}[/tex] hours to pave that driveway.

A toy rocket is shot vertically into the air from a launching pad 9 feet above the ground with an initial velocity of 88 feet per second. The height h, in feet, of the rocket above the ground at t seconds after launch is given by the function
h(t) - 16^2 + 88ft +9. How long will it take the rocket to reach its maximum height? What is the maximum height?
The rocket reaches its maximum height at ____ second(s) after launch.
(Simplify your answer.)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The position function for this is:

[tex]s(t)=-16t^2+88t+9[/tex]. We can use this equation to find the position (or height) of the rocket at ANY TIME during its flight. I could find out the height of the rocket at 3 seconds by plugging in a 3 for t and solving for s(t); I could find the height of the rocket at 12 seconds by plugging in a 12 for t and solving for s(t), etc.

The first derivative of position is velocity:

v(t) = -32t + 88.

If we are looking for the time the rocket reaches it max height, we need to remember from physics class that this happens when the velocity of the object is at 0. We set the velocity equation equal to 0 then and solve for t:

0 = -32t + 88 and

-88 = -32t so

t = 2.75 seconds. This means that 2.75 seconds after the rocket is launched, it reaches its max height. In order to find what that max height is we plug 2.75 into the position equation for t and solve:

[tex]s(2.75)=-16(2.75)^2+88(2.75)+9[/tex] to get that

s(2.75) = 130

The max height is 130 feet and it reaches this point at 2.75 seconds into its motion.

Answer:

Dependent event

[tex]P(Red = 2) = \frac{5}{588}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Total = 49[/tex]

[tex]Red = 5[/tex]

Solving (a): Are the events dependent?

Yes, they are.

When the first red candy is selected and eaten, the total number of candies reduced to 48 and the number of red candies also reduced to 4.

So, the probability of selecting a 2nd candy is dependent on the first candy selected.

Solving (b): P(Red = 2)

This is calculated as:

[tex]P(Red = 2) = P(Red) * P(Red | Red)[/tex]

The first selection has the following probability:

[tex]P(Red) = \frac{Red}{Total}[/tex]

[tex]P(Red) = \frac{5}{49}[/tex]

The second selection has the following probability:

[tex]P(Red|Red) = \frac{Red - 1}{Total - 1}[/tex]

[tex]P(Red|Red) = \frac{5 - 1}{49 - 1}[/tex]

[tex]P(Red|Red) = \frac{4}{48}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]P(Red = 2) = P(Red) * P(Red | Red)[/tex]

[tex]P(Red = 2) = \frac{5}{49} * \frac{4}{48}[/tex]

Reduce fraction

[tex]P(Red = 2) = \frac{5}{49} * \frac{1}{12}[/tex]

[tex]P(Red = 2) = \frac{5}{588}[/tex]
