Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the slide is inclined at an angle of 52.0° to the horizontal, Danny's weight (mass, m) of 46.0 pounds has a component W = mgcos52.0° perpendicular to the incline and W' = mgsin52.0° parallel to the incline where g = acceleration due to gravity = 32 ft/s²
The perpendicular component of Danny's weight is the normal force to the incline. This normal force would determine the magnitude of the friction along the incline.
Since the wax paper makes the incline surface frictionless, so, there is no friction along the surface and thus the only horizontal force acting along the surface is the component of Danny's weight along the surface.
For Stacey to keep Danny from sliding down along the incline, the force she applies along the incline, F must be equal to the component of Danny's weight along the incline.
So, F = W'
F = mgsin52.0°
F = 46lb × 32 ft/s² × sin52°
F = 1472 lb-ft/s² 0.7880
F = 1159.95 lb-f
F ≅ 1160 lb-f

In my town, it's rainy one third of the days. Given that it is rainy, there will be heavy traffic with probability 1/2, and given that it is not rainy, there will be heavy traffic with probability 1/4. If it's rainy and there is heavy traffic, I arrive late for work with probability 1/2. On the other hand, the probability of being late is reduced to 1/8 if it is not rainy and there is no heavy traffic. In other situations (rainy and no traffic, not rainy and traffic) the probability of being late is 0.25. You pick a random day.
a. What is the probability that it’s not raining and there is heavy traffic and I am not late?
b. What is the probability that I am late?
c. Given that I arrived late at work, what is the probability that it rained that day?
Answer:
a) 0.125 = 12.5% probability that it’s not raining and there is heavy traffic and I am not late.
b) 0.2292 = 22.92% probability that I am late.
c) 0.5454 = 54.54% probability that it rained that day.
Step-by-step explanation:
Conditional Probability
We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]
In which
P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.
[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.
P(A) is the probability of A happening.
Question a:
2/3 probability of not raining.
If not raining, 1/4 probability of heavy traffic.
1 - 0.25 = 0.75 = 3/4 probability of not late.
So
[tex]p = \frac{2}{3} \times \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{2}{16} = 0.125[/tex]
0.125 = 12.5% probability that it’s not raining and there is heavy traffic and I am not late.
b. What is the probability that I am late?
0.5 of (1/3)*(1/2) = 1/6(rainy and heavy traffic).
0.25 of (1/3)*(1/2) = 1/6(rainy and no traffic).
1/8 = 0.125 of (2/3)*(3/4) = 1/2(not rainy and no traffic).
0.25 of (2/3)*(1/4) = 1/6(not rainy and traffic). So
[tex]P(A) = 0.5\frac{1}{6} + 0.25\frac{1}{6} + 0.125\frac{3}{6} + 0.25\frac{1}{6} = \frac{0.5 + 0.25 + 3*0.125 + 0.25}{6} = 0.2292[/tex]
0.2292 = 22.92% probability that I am late.
c. Given that I arrived late at work, what is the probability that it rained that day?
Event A: Late
Event B: Rained
0.2292 = 22.92% probability that I am late.
This means that [tex]P(A) = 0.2292[/tex]
Probability of late and rain:
0.5 of 1/6(rain and heavy traffic).
0.25 of 1/6(rain and no traffic). So
[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.5\frac{1}{6} + 0.25\frac{1}{6} = \frac{0.5 + 0.25}{6} = \frac{0.75}{6} = 0.125[/tex]
Probability:
[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.125}{0.2292} = 0.5454[/tex]
0.5454 = 54.54% probability that it rained that day.
What is the solution to the system of equations? 5x-2y=-16 4x-5y=-23
Answer:
The solution set is {-2, 3}.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can do this by elimination after manipulating the 2 equations so that the coefficients of y will disappear after addition:
5x - 2y = -16 Multiply this by -5:
-25x + 10y = 80 ...........(A)
4x - 5y = -23 Multiply this by 2:
8x - 10y = -46..............(B)
Now add A and B:
-17x = 34
x = 34/-17
x = -2.
Now substitute x = -2 into the first original equation:
5(-2) - 2y = -16
-2y = -16 +10 = -6
y = -6/-2
y = 3.
Confirm these results by substitution in the second original equation:
4(-2) - 5(3)
= - 8 - 15 = -23.
Checks OK.
What is the distance between the following points?
WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
Answer:
D.√85
Step-by-step explanation:
We can find the distance between two points using the distance between two points formula
Distance between two points formula:
d = √(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²
Where the x and y values are derived from the given points
We are given the two points (-2,7) and (7,9)
Using these points let's define the variables ( variables are x1, x2, y1, and y2)
Remember points are written as follows (x,y)
The x value of the first point is -2 so x1 = -2
The x value of the second point is 7 so x2 = 7
The y value of the first point is 7 so y1 = 7
The y value of the second point is 9 so y2 = 9
Now that we have defined each variable let's find the distance between the two points
We can do this by substituting the values into the formula
Formula: d = √(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²
Variables: x1 = -2, x2 = 7, y1 = 7, y2 = 9
Substitute values in formula
d = √(7 - (-2))² + (9 - 7)²
Evaluation:
The two negative signs cancel out on 7-(-2) and it changes to +7
d = √ (7+2)² + (9-7)²
Add 7+2 and subtract 9 and 7
d = √ (9)² + (2)²
Simplify exponents 9² = 81 and 2² = 4
We then have d = √ 81 + 4
Finally we add 81 and 4
We get that the distance between the two points is √85
Historically, the industries with the most complaints to the Better Business Bureau have been banks, cable and satellite television companies, collection agencies, cellular phone providers, and new car dealerships. The results for a sample of complaints are contained in the file BBB. Click on the datafile logo to reference the data. a. Construct a frequency distribution for the number of complaints by industry. Category Observed Frequency Bank Cable Car Cell Collection Total b. Using , conduct a hypothesis test to determine whether the probability of a complaint is the same for the five industries. The test-statistic is (to 3 decimals). -value (to 4 decimals) What is your conclusion
Answer:
χ² = 19
Pvalue = 0.0008 ( 4 decimal places)
WE reject the H0 and conclude that probability of complaint is not the same for the 5 industries
Step-by-step explanation:
H0 : probability of complaint is the same for the 5 industries.
H1: probability of complaint is not the same for the 5 industries.
Category ____ observed frequency
Bank _______ 26
Cable _______44
Car _________42
Cell _________60
Collection ____ 28
Total ________200
The test statistic ;
χ² = (O - E)² / E
O = Observed Frequency ; E = Expected Frequency
Expected Frequency, E = (1 / n) * total
n = number of industries = 5
Expected frequency, E = (1/5)*200 = 40
Expected frequency is the same for all, thus E for all 5 industries = 40
χ² = Σ(O - E)² / E;
χ² = (26-40)² / 40 + (44-40)² / 40 + (42-40)² / 40 + (60-40)² / 40 + (28-40)² / 40
χ² = 19
At α = 0.05 ; df = n-1 = 4 ; χ²critical = 0.000786
Since Pvalue < α ; WE reject the H0 and conclude that probability of complaint is not the same for the 5 industries.

An education researcher would like to test whether 2nd graders retain or lose knowledge during the summer when they are presumably not in school. She asks nine 2nd graders to take a comprehension exam at the end of the school year (May), and then asks those same students to come back after the summer (late August) to retake a different but equivalent exam, to see if their level of comprehension has changed. Using the data below, test this hypothesis using an (alpha level of 0.05.)
May August
95 100
72 80
78 95
50 65
89 85
92 98
75 70
90 96
65 87
Required:
What is the appropirate test?
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data:
May August
95 100
72 80
78 95
50 65
89 85
92 98
75 70
90 96
65 87
The appropriate test is a paired t test :
d = difference between May and August
d = (-5, -8, -17, -15, 4, -6, 5, -6, -22)
The hypothesis :
H0 : μd = 0
H1 : μd ≠ 0
The test statistic :
T = dbar / (Sdbar/√n)
Where, dbar and Sdbar are the mean and standard deviation of 'd' respectively.
Using calculator :
dbar = - 7.777 ; Sdbar = 9.052
Test statistic = - 7.777 / (9.052 /√9)
Test statistic = - 2.577
The Pvalue, df = n - 1 = 9 - 1 = 8
Pvalue(-2.577, 8) = 0.0327
At α = 0.05
Pvalue < α ; WE reject the H0 ; and conclude that there has been a change in score

Suppose that a local TV station conducts a survey of a random sample of 120 registered voters in order to predict the winner of a local election. The Democrat candidate was favored by 62 of the respondents.
Required:
a. Construct and interpret a 99% CI for the true proportion of voters who prefer the Republican candidate.
b. If a candidate needs a simple majority of the votes to win the election, can the Republican candidate be confident of victory? Justify your response with an appropriate statistical argument.
Answer:
a) The 99% CI for the true proportion of voters who prefer the Republican candidate is (0.3658, 0.6001). This means that we are 99% sure that the true population proportion of all voters who prefer the Republican candidate is (0.3658, 0.6001).
b) The upper bound of the confidence interval is above 0.5 = 50%, which meas that the candidate can be confidence of victory.
Step-by-step explanation:
Question a:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
Sample of 120 registered voters in order to predict the winner of a local election. The Democrat candidate was favored by 62 of the respondents.
So 120 - 62 = 58 favored the Republican candidate, so:
[tex]n = 120, \pi = \frac{58}{120} = 0.4833[/tex]
99% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.01}{2} = 0.995[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.575[/tex].
The lower limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4833 - 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.4833*0.5167}{120}} = 0.3658[/tex]
The upper limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4833 + 2.575\sqrt{\frac{0.4833*0.5167}{120}} = 0.6001[/tex]
The 99% CI for the true proportion of voters who prefer the Republican candidate is (0.3658, 0.6001). This means that we are 99% sure that the true population proportion of all voters who prefer the Republican candidate is (0.3658, 0.6001).
b. If a candidate needs a simple majority of the votes to win the election, can the Republican candidate be confident of victory? Justify your response with an appropriate statistical argument.
The upper bound of the confidence interval is above 0.5 = 50%, which meas that the candidate can be confidence of victory.

A 12-sided die is rolled. The set of equally likely outcomes is {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12}. Find the probability of rolling an 8.
The probability of rolling an 8 is:
This is because there's one side we want (that's labeled "8") out of 12 sides total. This is of course if each side is equally likely.
Side note: this 12-sided die is known as a dodecahedron.

...The first three terms of an arithmetic progression (A.P) are (x+1),(4x-2) and(6x-3) respectively .If the last term is 18,find the
a.Value of x b.Sum of the terms of the progression
Answer:
[tex]x = 2[/tex]
[tex]S_n = 63[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]a_1 = x + 1[/tex]
[tex]a_2 = 4x -2[/tex]
[tex]a_3 = 6x -3[/tex]
[tex]a_n = 18[/tex]
Solving (a): x
To do this, we make use of common difference (d)
[tex]d = a_2 - a_1[/tex]
[tex]d = a_3 - a_2[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]a_3 - a_2 = a_2 - a_1[/tex]
Substitute known values
[tex](6x - 3) - (4x - 2) = (4x - 2) - (x + 1)[/tex]
Remove brackets
[tex]6x - 3 - 4x + 2 = 4x - 2 - x - 1[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]6x - 4x- 3 + 2 = 4x - x- 2 - 1[/tex]
[tex]2x- 1 = 3x- 3[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]2x - 3x = 1 - 3[/tex]
[tex]-x = -2[/tex]
[tex]x = 2[/tex]
Solving (b): Sum of progression
First, we calculate the first term
[tex]a_1 = x + 1[/tex]
[tex]a_1 = 2 + 1 = 3[/tex]
Next, calculate d
[tex]d = a_2 - a_1[/tex]
[tex]d = (4x - 2) - (x +1)[/tex]
[tex]d = (4*2 - 2) - (2 +1)[/tex]
[tex]d = 6 - 3 = 3[/tex]
Next, we calculate n using:
[tex]a_n = a + (n - 1)d[/tex]
Where:
[tex]a_n = 18[/tex]
[tex]d = 3; a = 3[/tex]
So:
[tex]18 = 3 +(n - 1) * 3[/tex]
Subtract 3 from both sides
[tex]15 = (n - 1) * 3[/tex]
Divide both sides by 3
[tex]5 = n - 1[/tex]
Add 1 to both sides
[tex]6 = n[/tex]
[tex]n = 6[/tex]
The sum of the progression is:
[tex]S_n = \frac{n}{2} * [a + a_n][/tex]
So,, we have:
[tex]S_n = \frac{6}{2} * [3 + 18][/tex]
[tex]S_n = 3 * 21[/tex]
[tex]S_n = 63[/tex]

Pauline mixed 0.32 liter of syrup with 12 times as much water to make orange squash.She split 1.28 liter of orange squash.Then she poured the remaining orange squash equally into 4 bottles.How much orange squash were there in each bottle.Give your answer in Liters.
Answer:
0.72 litres
Step-by-step explanation:
Litres of syrup = 0.32 litres
Litres of water = 12 times the amount of syrup = 12 * 0.32 = 3.84 litres
Litres of orange squash = litres of syrup + litres of water
Litres of orange squash = (0.32 + 3.84) = 4.16 litres
Amount of orange squash litres split = 1.28 litres
Amount of orange squash left = (4.16 - 1.28) = 2.88 litres
Splitting the amount of squash left equally into 4 :
2.88 litres / 4 = 0.72 litres

As part of a class project, a university student surveyed the students in the cafeteria lunch line to look for a relationship between eye color and hair color among students. The table below contains the results of the survey.
Answer: Choice B) 0.27
=========================================================
Explanation:
There are a lot of data values here, and it's possible to easily get lost in them. However, we're asked only about students with blond hair. So we only focus on the first row. Ignore everything else.
We see that there are 78 of these students total. Of this total, 21 have green eyes.
Therefore, the relative frequency of blonds with green eyes is 21/78 = 0.2692 which rounds to 0.27; so that's why the answer is choice B.

Find the value of y.
9514 1404 393
Answer:
(d) 6√3
Step-by-step explanation:
There are several ways to work multiple-choice problems. One of the simplest is to choose the only answer that makes any sense. Here, that is 6√3.
y is the hypotenuse of the medium-sized right triangle, so will be longer than that triangle's longest leg. y > 9
The only answer choice that meets this requirement is ...
y = 6√3
__
In this geometry, all of the right triangles are similar. This means corresponding sides have the same ratio. For y, we're interested in the ratio of long leg to hypotenuse.
long leg/hypotenuse = y/(9+3) = 9/y
y² = 9(9+3) = 9·4·3
y = 3·2·√3 . . . . . . take the square root
y = 6√3
__
Additional comments
You may notice that y is the root of the product of the longer hypotenuse segment (9) and the whole hypotenuse (9+3 = 12). We can say that y is the "geometric mean" of these segment lengths. Similarly (pun only partially intended), x will be the root of the product of the short segment (3) and the whole hypotenuse (12)
x = √(3·12) = 6
This is another "geometric mean" relation.
Further, the altitude will be the geometric mean of the two segments of the hypotenuse:
h = √(9·3) = 3√3
A way to summarize all of these relations is to say that the legs of the right triangle that are not the hypotenuse are equal to the geometric mean of the segments of the hypotenuse that the leg intercepts.
x = √(3·12)
y = √(9·12)
h = √(3·9)
From September 1991 to September 1994 the enrollment at a particular school declined by 20 percent. If the number of students enrolled at that school in September 1994 was 720, what was the enrollment in September 1991
Answer:
900
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Enrollment declined by 20% from between September 1991 to September 1994
This means there was a reduction in enrollment ;
Enrollment in September 1994 = 720
Enrollment in September 1991 = x
Hence,
Enrollment in 1994 = (1 - decline rate ) * enrollment in 1991
720 = (1 - 20%) * x
720 = (1 - 0.2) * x
720 = 0.8x
720 / 0.8 = 0.8x/0.8
900 = x
Hence, Enrollment in September 1991 = 900 enrollments

Lily wants to put a ribbon border around two round clocks. Each clock has a diameter of 24 centimeters. Using 3.14 for π, approximately how many meters of ribbon does Lily need?
Answer:
1.5 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to use circumference for this problem and the formula is dπ.
Plug in:
24π
Solve with pi:
24×3.14 = 75.36
Since there is two clocks, multiply:
75.36 × 2 = 150.72
In 1 meter there is 100 centimeters so divide
150.75 ÷ 100 = 1.5
So you will need 1.5 meters of ribbon.
