Explain the difference between a rate, a ratio, and a proportion?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A proportion is an equality of two ratios.

Example : [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{9}[/tex]

We write proportions to help us find equivalent ratios and solve for unknown quantities.

A rate is the quotient of a ratio where the quantities have different units.

Example : [tex]\frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

A ratio is a comparison of two quantities.

Example : 1 : 3 or [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Two trains leave the station at the same time, one heading east and the other west. The eastbound train travels at 95 miles per hour. The westbound train travels at 75 miles per hour. How long will it take for the two trains to be 238 miles apart? Do not do any rounding.

Answers

Answer:

They are going away from each other.

So add up their speed.

combined speed = x+x-16

=2x-16

Time = 2 hours

Distance = 400 miles

Distance = speed * time

(2x-16)* 2

Answers

Answer:

60:100, 6/10, 3/5, 6 to 10, etc.

Step-by-step explanation:

You take the number of girls over total students which is boys + girls. Since there's 40 boys and 60 girls, it's 60 girls to 100 students which can be written in several ways.

Answer:

60:100 / 3:5

Step-by-step explanation:

You first add the total number of students which is (40boys + 60girls) which gives us 100 students.

Then arrange the ratio of girls to students as per the question that is 60:100, reduce it to its lowest term that is dividing the ratio by 20, and finally got 3:5

Identify the transformation that occurs to create the graph of g(x). g(x)=f(x)-7

Answers

Answer:

g(x) is obtained by shift the function f(x) down 7 units by subtracting 7 units from f(x).

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

[tex]g(x)=f(x)-7[/tex]

We have to identify  the transformation that occurs to create the graph of g(x).

To identify  the transformation that occurs to create the graph of g(x)

We will subtract the 7 from f(x).

Let f(x) be any function

[tex]g(x)=f(x)-k[/tex]

It means g(x) obtained by  shift the function f(x) down  k units by subtracting k units from f(x).

Therefore, g(x) is obtained by shift the function f(x) down 7 units by subtracting 7 units from f(x).

A computer monitor is listed as being 22 inches. This distance is the diagonal distance across the screen. If the screen measures 12 inches in height, what is the actual width of the screen to the nearest inch?

22 inches
18.43 inches
25.05 inches
32.5 inches

Answers

Answer

The width of the screen is 18.43.

Explanation

Use the Pythagorean Theorem (a^2+b^2=c^2) to find the height.

In a right triangle, a and b are legs. In this instance, a and b would be the height and width of the computer monitor. Let's say the height is a and the width is b (you're trying to find b). The hypotenuse of a right triangle is c. For the computer monitor, c is the diagonal.

So put in everything you know to find b; 12^2+b^2=22^2.

12^2 is 144 and 22^2 is 484. Now you have 144+b^2=484. When you simplify, you get b^2=340. When you simplify again, you find that b is about 18.43.

Let Y1 and Y2 denote the proportions of time (out of one workday) during which employees I and II, respectively, perform their assigned tasks. The joint relative frequency behavior of Y1 and Y2 is modeled by the density function.

f (y 1,y2)=y 1+y 2 o<=y 1<=1, 0<=y2<=1(0 elsewhere)

a. Find P (Y1< 1/2,y2>1/4)
b. Find P(Y 1+Y2<=1)
Are Y1 and Y2 independent?

Answers

(a) The region Y₁ < 1/2 and Y₂ > 1/4 corresponds to the rectangle,

{(y₁, y₂) : 0 ≤ y₁ < 1/2 and 1/4 < y₂ ≤ 1}

Integrate the joint density over this region:

[tex]P\left(Y_1<\dfrac12,Y_2>\dfrac14\right) = \displaystyle\int_0^{\frac12}\int_{\frac14}^1 (y_1+y_2)\,\mathrm dy_2\,\mathrm dy_1 = \boxed{\dfrac{21}{64}}[/tex]

(b) The line Y₁ + Y₂ = 1 cuts the support in half into a triangular region,

{(y₁, y₂) : 0 ≤ y₁ < 1 and 0 < y₂ ≤ 1 - y₁}

Integrate to get the probability:

[tex]P(Y_1+Y_2\le1) = \displaystyle\int_0^1\int_0^{1-y_1}(y_1+y_2)\,\mathrm dy_2\,\mathrm dy_1 = \boxed{\dfrac13}[/tex]

Y₁ and Y₂ are not independent because

P(Y₁ = y₁, Y₂ = y₂) ≠ P(Y₁ = y₁) P(Y₂ = y₂)

To see this, compute the marginal densities of Y₁ and Y₂.

[tex]P(Y_1=y_1) = \displaystyle\int_0^1 f(y_1,y_2)\,\mathrm dy_2 = \begin{cases}\frac{2y_1+1}2&\text{if }0\le y_1\le1\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}[/tex]

[tex]P(Y_2=y_2) = \displaystyle\int_0^1 f(y_1,y_2)\,\mathrm dy_1 = \begin{cases}\frac{2y_2+1}2&\text{if }0\le y_2\le1\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}[/tex]

[tex]\implies P(Y_1=y_1)P(Y_2=y_2) = \begin{cases}\frac{(2y_1+1)(2y_2_1)}4&\text{if }0\le y_1\le1,0\ley_2\le1\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}[/tex]

but this clearly does not match the joint density.

If the angles (4x + 4)° and (6x – 4)° are the supplementary angles, find the value of x.

Answers

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles means sum of angles is 180.

4x + 4 + 6x - 4 = 180

4x + 6x + 4 - 4 = 180

10x = 180

x = 180 / 10

x = 18

Answer:

x=18 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

If they are supplementary angles, then their sum = 180 degree

4x+4 + 6x-4 =180

4x+6x + 4-4 = 180

10x = 180

x=180/10

Explanation:

We can't use SAS since we don't have two pairs of proportional sides. We only know one pair of sides. This also rules out SSS as well since we'd need 3 pairs of proportional sides.

We can't use AA because we don't have two pairs of congruent angles.

Currently, we simply don't have enough information to determine if the triangles are similar or not.

Category Observed (Expected)

A 25 (20)

B 35(40)

C 50(60)

D 90(80)

The Chisquare statistic (χ²) is given by :

χ² = Σ(observed - Expected)² / Expected

χ² = (25-20)²/20 + (35-40)/40 + (50-60)²/60 + (90-80)²/80

χ² = 1.25 + 0.625 + 1.67 + 1.25

A city has a population of 350,000 peopleSuppose that each year the population grows by 7.75%What will the population be after 6 years Use the calculator provided and round your answer to the nearest whole number

Answers

Answer:

547737

Step-by-step explanation:

So first when know that the equation for exponentinal growth is f(x)=a(1+r)^x

Then you need to substitue so it would be f(x)=350,000(1+0.0775)^6

So then you would add the 1 and 0.0775 to equal 1.0775

So now its f(x)=350,000(1.0775)^6

So after that following PEMDAS, you would basically do 1.0775 to the power of 6 and get 1.56496155465

After you would do 1.56496155465 times 350,000 and that would be 547736.544129 and since its to the nearest whole number the answer would be 547737

A person is standing close to the edge on a 56 foot building and throws the ball vertically upward. The quadratic function h(t)=-16^2+104t+56 models the balls height above the ground,h(t),in feet, T seconds after it was thrown
what is the maximum height of ball.=
How many seconds did it take to hit the ground=
Please help!

Answers

Answer:

Part 1)

225 feet.

Part 2)

7 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height h(t) of the ball above the ground after t seconds is modeled by the function:

[tex]h(t)=-16t^2+104t+56[/tex]

Part 1)

We want to determine the maximum height of the ball.

Notice that the function is a quadratic with a negative leading coefficient, so its maximum will be at its vertex point.

The vertex of a parabola is given by:

[tex]\displaystyle \text{Vertex} = \left(-\frac{b}{2a}, f\left(-\frac{b}{2a}\right)\right)[/tex]

In this case, a = -16, b = 104, and c = 56.

Find the x- (or rather t-) coordinate of the vertex. So:

[tex]\displaystyle t=-\frac{(104)}{2(-16)}=\frac{104}{32}=\frac{13}{4}=3.25\text{ seconds}[/tex]

In other words, the ball reaches its maximum height after 3.25 seconds.

To find the maximum height, substitute this value back into the function. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle h(3.25)=-16(3.25)^2+104(3.25)+56=225\text{ feet}[/tex]

The maximum height of the ball is 225 feet in the air.

Part 2)

We want to find the amount of time it took for the ball to hit the ground.

When the ball hit the ground, its height above the ground is zero. Therefore, we can set h(t) to 0 and solve for t:

[tex]0=-16t^2+104t+56[/tex]

We can simplify a bit. Divide both sides by -8:

[tex]0=2t^2-13t-7[/tex]

We can factor. Find two numbers that multiply to 2(-7) = -14 and add to -13.

-14 and 1 works! Therefore, split the second term into -14 and 1:

[tex]\displaystyle 0=2t^2-14t+t-7[/tex]

Factor out a 2t from the first two terms and group the last two terms:

[tex]0=2t(t-7)+(t-7)[/tex]

Factor by grouping:

[tex]0=(2t+1)(t-7)[/tex]

Zero Product Property:

[tex]2t+1=0\text{ or } t-7=0[/tex]

Solve for each case:

[tex]\displaystyle t=-0.5\text{ or } t=7[/tex]

Since time cannot be negative, we can ignore the first case.

Therefore, it takes seven seconds for the ball to hit the ground.

The last dividend paid by Wilden Corporation was $1.55. The dividend growth rate is expected to be constant at 1.5% for 2 years, after which dividends are expected to grow at a rate of 6.0% forever. The firm's required return (rs) is 12.0%. What is the best estimate of the current stock price?

Answers

Answer:

Net present value= $25.17

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that The last dividend paid was $1.55 and that the dividend growth rate is constant at 1.5% for 2 years.

Thus;

1) After 1st year;

1.55 × (1 + 0.015) = 1.57325 Div1

After 2nd year;

1.57325 × (1 + 0.015) = 1.59685 Div2

After that 2 years it grows at 6% Constant rate forever;

1.59685 × (1 + 0.06) = 1.69266 Div3

Let's now use the dividend formula which grows in perpetuity at a rate of "g" since required return is 12%:

Thus;

V = 1.69266/(0.12 - 0.06) = 28.211

Thus; Div2 = 28.211 + 1.59685 ≈ 29.80785

Now, using the financial calculator of the Cash Flow function, we have:

Div0 = 0

Div1 = 1.57325

Div2 = 29.80785

i% = 12

Net present value = (1.57325/(1 + 0.12)) + ((1.59685 + 28.211)/(1 + 0.12)²)

Net present value= $25.17
