When studying radioactive material, a nuclear engineer found that over 365 days,
1,000,000 radioactive atoms decayed to 970,258 radioactive atoms, so 29,742 atoms
decayed during 365 days.
a. Find the mean number of radioactive atoms that decayed in a day.
b. Find the probability that on a given day, 50 radioactive atoms decayed.
a. The mean number of radioactive atoms that decay per day is
(Round to three decimal places as needed.)
Answer:
a) The mean number of radioactive atoms that decay per day is 81.485.
b) 0% probability that on a given day, 50 radioactive atoms decayed.
Step-by-step explanation:
Poisson distribution:
In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\lambda}*\lambda^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
In which
x is the number of sucesses
e = 2.71828 is the Euler number
[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.
a. Find the mean number of radioactive atoms that decayed in a day.
29,742 atoms decayed during 365 days, which means that:
[tex]\lambda = \frac{29742}{365} = 81.485[/tex]
The mean number of radioactive atoms that decay per day is 81.485.
b. Find the probability that on a given day, 50 radioactive atoms decayed.
This is P(X = 50). So
[tex]P(X = 50) = \frac{e^{-81.485}*(81.485)^{50}}{(50)!} = 0[/tex]
0% probability that on a given day, 50 radioactive atoms decayed.

what is the cost to drive from san francisco to los angeles (405 mi) if the cost of gasoline is $2.34/gal and the automobile gets 8.5 mi/L
Answer:
The cost is $ 29.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
distance = 405 miles
Cost = $ 2.34 /gal
Average = 8.5 miles per litre
So, the amount of gasoline to travel for 405miles
= 405/8.5 = 47.65 liter
1 gal = 3.785 liters
So,
47.65 liter = 47.65 / 3.785 = 12.6 gal
So, the cots is
= $ 2.34 x 12.6 = $29.5

Step-by-step explanation:
total books = (books per box) × (number of boxes)
number of boxes = (total books)/(books per box) = 625 /25 = 25
She needs 25 boxes to move all the books.
Consider a relation on the set of all states in the United States given by: two states are related if they have a border in common. Is it an equivalence relation
Answer:
Yes it is an equivalence relation
Explanation:
An equivalence relation is a binary relation between two values that are symmetric, transitive and reflexive. In other words, when we say a value x is equal(using "=") to a value y, there is an equivalence relation between them.
Example, given set {x, y, z} where ~ means equivalence:
x ~ y if y ~ z means symmetric
since x ~ y and y ~ z, then x ~ z means transitive
x ~ x means reflexive
Equivalence relations share a common attribute or attributes(example, a satisfying condition)
The above condition that two states are related from the set of all US states if they have a border in common satisfies the condition of equivalence listed hence it is an equivalence relation.

Peter is 8 years younger than Alex. In 9 years time, the sum of their ages will be 76 . How old is Alex now?
Answer:
Peter is a-8 in 9 years, (a-8)+ 9+ a+ 9= 76
Answer:
P = 25
A = 33
Step-by-step explanation:
P + 8 = A
P + 9 + A + 9 = 76
P + A = 58
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
P = 58 - A
P = 58 - P - 8
2 P = 50
P = 25
A = 33

Find the area of the irregular figure. Round to the nearest hundredth.
Answer:
16 sq units
Step-by-step explanation:
The club will use the majority criterion method to determine the final winner. However, while finalizing the votes, a member of the club discovers that Mason did not meet the original criteria to be considered for the vacation package, because he is a county deputy, not a city police person, so Mason is eliminated from the votes. Who actually will win the tickets? Is the irrelevant alternative criterion supported in this case?
Answer and Explanation:
The irrelevant alternative criterion states that if two candidates A and B contest for an election and candidate B is preferred to candidate A then any other candidate X should not cause candidate A to win the election.
In this case if Mason was candidate A, then candidate B should still win by the majority criterion method and the irrelevant alternative criterion would still be supported. However if he is candidate B then the irrelevant alternative criterion is not supported.
4b^2+300=0 this is a quadratic equation that I am trying to solve including any solutions with imaginary numbers I will include a picture
Answer:
b= 5i square root of 3
b = -5i square root of 3
Step-by-step explanation:
4b^2+300=0
4b^2 = -300
b^2 = -75
b = square root of -75
b = -75^1/2
^1/2 means square root
b = 25^1/2 * 3^1/2 * i
b= 5i square root of 3
b = -5i square root of 3
9 friends are lining up. Joe, Susan, John, and Meredith must be beside each other. How many ways can they line up?
This is one single number slightly over 17 thousand.
You may need to erase the comma when typing the answer in.
=========================================================
Explanation:
Let's say that another person steps in for Joe, Susan, John, and Meredith. I'll refer to this person as the teacher (perhaps these 9 friends are students on a field trip).
The 9 friends drops to 9-4 = 5 people when those four named people leave the group temporarily. Then it bumps up to 5+1 = 6 people when the teacher steps in. Wherever the teacher is located, the four friends that left will replace the teacher. This guarantees that those four friends stick together.
There are 6! = 6*5*4*3*2*1 = 720 ways to arrange those 6 people. The exclamation mark is a factorial symbol.
Within any of those 720 permutations, we have 4! = 4*3*2*1 = 24 ways to arrange those group of named people when they come back to replace the teacher.
So overall the answer is 4!*6! = 24*720 = 17,280
You may need to erase the comma when typing the answer in.
-------------
Side note: There are 9! = 362,880 ways to arrange all nine friends regardless if those four mentioned people stick together or not. We see that they stick together roughly (17,280)/(362,880) = 0.0476 = 4.76% of the time.

The x intercepts of the function f(x) = 2x(x-5)^2(x+4)^3
are…
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{\sf x- intercepts = 0 , 5 \ and \ -4}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
A function is given to us and we need to find the x Intercepts of the graph of the given function . The function is ,
[tex]\sf \implies f(x) = 2x( x - 5 ) ^2(x+4)^3 [/tex]
For finding the x intercept , equate the given function with 0, we have ;
[tex]\sf \implies 2x ( x - 5 )^2(x+4)^3= 0 [/tex]
Equate each factor with 0 ,
[tex]\sf \implies 2x = 0[/tex]
Divide both sides by 2 ,
[tex]\sf \implies\bf x = 0[/tex]
Again ,
[tex]\sf \implies ( x - 5)^2=0 [/tex]
Taking squareroot on both sides,
[tex]\sf \implies x - 5 = 0 [/tex]
Add 5 to both sides,
[tex]\sf \implies \bf x = 5[/tex]
Similarly ,
[tex]\sf \implies \bf x = -4 [/tex]
Hence the x Intercepts are -4 , 0 and 5 .

SCALCET8 3.9.015. A street light is mounted at the top of a 15-ft-tall pole. A man 6 ft tall walks away from the pole with a speed of 4 ft/s along a straight path. How fast is the tip of his shadow moving when he is 35 ft from the pole
Answer:
[tex]X=6.67ft/s[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Height of pole [tex]H_p=15[/tex]
Height of man [tex]h_m=6ft[/tex]
Speed of Man [tex]\triangle a =4ft/s[/tex]
Distance from pole [tex]d=35ft[/tex]
Let
Distance from pole to man=a
Distance from man to shadow =b
Therefore
[tex]\frac{a+b}{15}=\frac{b}{6}[/tex]
[tex]6a+6b=15y[/tex]
[tex]2a=3b[/tex]
Generally the equation for change in velocity is mathematically given by
[tex]2(\triangle a)=3(\triangle b )[/tex]
[tex]2*4=3(\triangle b)[/tex]
[tex]\triangle a=\frac{8}{3}[/tex]
Since
The speed of the shadow is given as
[tex]X=\triangle b+\triangle a[/tex]
[tex]X=4+8/3[/tex]
[tex]X=6.67ft/s[/tex]

The time to complete an exam in a statistics class is a normal random variable with a mean of 50 minutes and a standard deviation of 10 minutes. What is the probability, given a class size of 30 students, the average time to complete the test is less than 48.5 minutes
Answer:
0.2061 = 20.61% probability, given a class size of 30 students, the average time to complete the test is less than 48.5 minutes
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.
Mean of 50 minutes and a standard deviation of 10 minutes.
This means that [tex]\mu = 50, \sigma = 10[/tex]
Class size of 30 students
This means that [tex]n = 30, s = \frac{10}{\sqrt{30}}[/tex]
What is the probability, given a class size of 30 students, the average time to complete the test is less than 48.5 minutes.
This is the p-value of Z when X = 48.5. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{48.5 - 50}{\frac{10}{\sqrt{30}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.82[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.82[/tex] has a p-value of 0.2061
0.2061 = 20.61% probability, given a class size of 30 students, the average time to complete the test is less than 48.5 minutes
Measurement error that is normally distributed with a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 0.5 gram is added to the true weight of a sample. Then the measurement is rounded to the nearest gram. Suppose that the true weight of a sample is 166.0 grams.
(a) What is the probability that the rounded result is 167 grams?
(b) What is the probability that the rounded result is 167 grams or more?
Answer:
(a)[tex]0.15731[/tex]
(b)0.02275
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
Mean=0
Standard deviation=0.5 g
True weight of a sample=166 g
Let X denote the normal random variable with mean =166+0=166
(a)
P(166.5<X<167.5)
=[tex]P(\frac{166.5-166}{0.5}<\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{167.5-166}{0.5})[/tex]
=[tex]P(1<Z<3)[/tex]
=[tex]P(Z<3)-P(Z<1)[/tex]
[tex]=0.99865-0.84134[/tex]
[tex]=0.15731[/tex]
(b)
[tex]P(X>167)=P(Z>\frac{167-166}{0.5})[/tex]
[tex]=P(Z>2)[/tex]
[tex]=1-P(Z<2)[/tex]
[tex]=1-0.97725[/tex]
[tex]=0.02275[/tex]
