In A Mixture Of 240 Gallons, The Ratio Of Ethanol And Gasoline Is 3:1. If The Ratio Is To Be 1:3, Then

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

480 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in a mixture of 240 gallons, the ratio of ethanol and gasoline is 3: 1, if the ratio is to be 1: 3, to find the quantity of gasoline that is to be added the following calculation must be performed:

240/4 x 3 = Ethanol

240/4 = Gasoline

180 = Ethanol

60 = Gasoline

0.25 = 180

1 = X

180 / 0.25 = X

720 = X

720 - 180 - 60 = X

480 = X

Therefore, 480 gallons of gasoline must be added if the ratio is to be 1: 3.

Answer:

x = 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, calculate 6-9, which is -3.

Then we add 9 on both sides so that on the left, we only have 4x, and on the right, we have 6.

Then divide by 4 on both sides to get x = 1.5

X=-3
4x=6-9+9

A bottle maker believes that 23% of his bottles are defective. If the bottle maker is accurate, what is the probability that the proportion of defective bottles in a sample of 602 bottles would differ from the population proportion by less than 4%

Answers

Answer:

0.9802 = 98.02% probability that the proportion of defective bottles in a sample of 602 bottles would differ from the population proportion by less than 4%

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

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.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

A bottle maker believes that 23% of his bottles are defective.

This means that [tex]p = 0.23[/tex]

Sample of 602 bottles

This means that [tex]n = 602[/tex]

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = p = 0.23[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.23*0.77}{602}} = 0.0172[/tex]

What is the probability that the proportion of defective bottles in a sample of 602 bottles would differ from the population proportion by less than 4%?

p-value of Z when X = 0.23 + 0.04 = 0.27 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.23 - 0.04 = 0.19.

X = 0.27

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{0.27 - 0.23}{0.0172}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.33[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.33[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9901

X = 0.19

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

[tex]Z = \frac{0.19 - 0.23}{0.0172}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.33[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.33[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0099

0.9901 - 0.0099 = 0.9802

0.9802 = 98.02% probability that the proportion of defective bottles in a sample of 602 bottles would differ from the population proportion by less than 4%

Mrs. Taylor is planning a pizza party for her students. She plans to purchase cheese pizza and pepperoni pizza for her students to enjoy. Cheese pizzas cost $8 each and pepperoni pizzas cost $11 each. She needs to purchase at least 12 pizzas, while spending no more than $180.

What are two combinations of cheese and pepperoni pizzas that Mrs. Taylor can purchase without exceeding her spending limit?

Let x represent the number of cheese pizzas purchased and y represent the number of pepperoni pizzas purchased.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

She needs 12 pizzas

x + y = 12

She also can't spend more than 180 dollars.

8x + 11y < 180 She can get all 12 pizzas and have the bill come to 132 dollars

11 * 12 = 132

She could really be kind to her pocket book and get all cheese pizzas

8*12 = 96 which saves her 36 dollars.

So any number of either kind will do.

(0,12) = 132

(1,11) = 8*1 + 11*11 = 129

and so on down the line

As the sign outside the second parentheses is  a + then the signs of the terms inside stay the same.

So the first one + (-3x +2) is just -3x + 2.

All the others on the left column are answered in the same way.

No. 4:

(-2x + 10 + (-8x - 1)     Just remove the parentheses, we get:

-2x + 10 - 8x - 1           (we leave out the + before the second parentheses).

= -2x - 8x + 10 - 1        

= -10x + 9

6. 8x + 8 + ( -6x - 1)

= 8x + 8 - 6x - 1

= 8x - 6x + 8 - 1

= 2x + 7.

N = 9
Identify the variable:
Identify the median:
Identify the mean:
How would you describe the shape of the distribution:

Answers

Answer:

(a) Residents

(b) [tex]Median = 0.13[/tex]

(c)  [tex]\bar x = 0.14[/tex]

(d) Right skewed

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The data of residents without health insurance

Solving (a): The variable

The variable is the residents

Solving (b): The median

First, we sort the data

[tex]Sorted: 0.09, 0.10, 0.11, 0.13, 0.13, 0.14, 0.16, 0.19, 0.25[/tex]

So, the median position is:

[tex]Median = \frac{n + 1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Median = \frac{9 + 1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Median = \frac{10}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Median = 5th[/tex]

The 5th element of the dataset is: 0.13

So:

[tex]Median = 0.13[/tex]

Solving (c): The mean

This is calculated as:

[tex]\bar x = \frac{\sum x}{n}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x = \frac{0.09+ 0.10+ 0.11+ 0.13+ 0.13+ 0.14+ 0.16+ 0.19+ 0.25}{9}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x = \frac{1.3}{9}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x = 0.14[/tex]

Solving (d): The shape of the distribution

In (b) and (c), we have:

[tex]Median = 0.13[/tex]

[tex]\bar x = 0.14[/tex]

By comparison, the mean is greater than the median.

Hence, the shape is: right skewed.

a student estimates the length of a room to be 20 feet. The actual length is 20.25 feet. What is the percent error?

Answers

Answer:

Percent error=1.23%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Estimate length of room=20 feet

Actual length of room=20.25 feet

We have to find the percent error.

To find the percent error we will find the difference between the estimate length and actual length of room.

Difference=Actual length of room-Estimate length of room

Difference=20.25-20

Difference=0.25 feet

Now,

Percent error=[tex]\frac{Difference}{actual\;length}\times 100[/tex]

Percent error=[tex]\frac{0.25}{20.25}\times 100[/tex]

Percent error=1.23%

Describe five ways you could increase the nutritional value of classical and contemporary cakes, pastries and bread or their filling?

Answers

Answer:

Find the definitions and points below.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Food Handling refers to any of the stages in the preparation, storage, transportation, packaging, and delivery of food.

2. Utensils are those vessels and tools that are used to carry, cut, stir, and store items and ingredients required in food preparation.

3.  Three quality points for dairy and eggs which indicate quality and freshness are;

a. Smell: A decaying and pungent smell indicates a lack of quality.

b. Color: An abnormal color with physical signs of rottenness shows a lack of quality.

c. The sinking test is used to check for the freshness of eggs. If an egg sinks when put in a glass of water, it is a sign of freshness. If it floats, it is an indication of decay.

4. Three quality points for dry goods that indicate quality and freshness:

Moisture: The presence of moisture in dry food shows a lack of quality.

Weight: Heaviness might be an indication that one coconut is better than another.

Texture: A dry food that is sticky might indicate a lack of freshness. Smoothness, crunchiness, hardness, and toughness are other qualities to look out for.

5. Five ways I could increase the nutritional value of pastries include

1. Using fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients free from contamination will guarantee that foods with good nutritional values are produced.

2. Preparing them in a hygienic environment: A hygienic environment will prevent food poisoning by bacteria and other contaminants.

3. Using proper measurements: When the right measurements are used in the preparation of pastries a balanced snack is produced.

4. Good preservation techniques: The right preservation techniques will prevent food spoilage.

5. Good packaging and wrapping: These will prevent exposure of the food to moisture, rodents, and other unwanted factors. Thus, the nutritional value is preserved.

The limit of the difference quotient of the above function [tex]f(x)[/tex] at [tex]x=3[/tex] is [tex]3[/tex] such that [tex]f(x)=x^{3} - 4x^{2} + 2[/tex].

Difference of quotient

The difference quotient of a function [tex]f(x)[/tex] is [tex]\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}[/tex].

How to evaluate the limit of the function?

The given equation is, [tex]f(x)=x^{3} -4x^{2} +2[/tex]

So, [tex]f(x+h)=(x+h)^{3} -4(x+h)^{2} +2= x^{3} +h^{3}+3x^{2} h+3xh^{2} -4x^{2} -4h^{2} -8xh+2[/tex]

Now, [tex]f(x+h)-f(x)[/tex]

[tex]=x^{3}+h^{3}+3x^{2}h+3xh^{2}-4x^{2}-4h^{2}-8xh+2-x^{3}+4x^{2}-2[/tex]

[tex]=h^{3}+3x^{2}h+3xh^{2}-4h^{2}-8xh[/tex]

So, [tex]\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h} =\frac{h^{3}+3x^{2}h+3xh^{2} -4h^{2}-8xh }{h}[/tex]

[tex]=h^{2}+3x^{2}+3xh-4h-8x[/tex]

Now, at [tex]x=3[/tex],

[tex]h^{2}+3x^{2}+3xh-4h-8x=h^{2}+27+9h-4h-24=h^{2}+5h+3[/tex]

If   [tex]h[/tex]→[tex]0[/tex], the value of [tex]h^{2}+5h+3=3[/tex]

Thus, the limit of the difference quotient of the above function [tex]f(x)[/tex] at [tex]x=3[/tex] is [tex]3[/tex].
