Answer:
-1/3x
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find the term 'a' such that ...
(5/6x -4) + a = (1/2x -4)
Add 4-1/2x to both sides.
(5/6 -1/2)x -4 +4 +a = 0
(5/6 -3/6)x + a = 0 . . . . . . express the fractions using a common denominator
1/3x + a = 0 . . . . . . . . . . simplify the difference
a = -1/3x . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 1/3x
The term you can add to make the desired equivalent is -1/3x.

The number of chocolate chips in a bag of chocolate chip cookies is approximately normally distributed with mean of 1262 and a standard deviation of 118. Determine the 26th percentile for the number of chocolate chips in a bag. (b) Determine the number of chocolate chips in a bag that make up the middle 95% of bags. (c) What is the interquartile range of the number of chocolate chips in a bag of chocolate chip cookies?
Answer:
a) 1186
b) Between 1031 and 1493.
c) 160
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.
Normally distributed with mean of 1262 and a standard deviation of 118.
This means that [tex]\mu = 1262, \sigma = 118[/tex]
a) Determine the 26th percentile for the number of chocolate chips in a bag.
This is X when Z has a p-value of 0.26, so X when Z = -0.643.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]-0.643 = \frac{X - 1262}{118}[/tex]
[tex]X - 1262 = -0.643*118[/tex]
[tex]X = 1186[/tex]
(b) Determine the number of chocolate chips in a bag that make up the middle 95% of bags.
Between the 50 - (95/2) = 2.5th percentile and the 50 + (95/2) = 97.5th percentile.
2.5th percentile:
X when Z has a p-value of 0.025, so X when Z = -1.96.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]-1.96 = \frac{X - 1262}{118}[/tex]
[tex]X - 1262 = -1.96*118[/tex]
[tex]X = 1031[/tex]
97.5th percentile:
X when Z has a p-value of 0.975, so X when Z = 1.96.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]1.96 = \frac{X - 1262}{118}[/tex]
[tex]X - 1262 = 1.96*118[/tex]
[tex]X = 1493[/tex]
Between 1031 and 1493.
(c) What is the interquartile range of the number of chocolate chips in a bag of chocolate chip cookies?
Difference between the 75th percentile and the 25th percentile.
25th percentile:
X when Z has a p-value of 0.25, so X when Z = -0.675.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]-0.675 = \frac{X - 1262}{118}[/tex]
[tex]X - 1262 = -0.675*118[/tex]
[tex]X = 1182[/tex]
75th percentile:
X when Z has a p-value of 0.75, so X when Z = 0.675.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]0.675 = \frac{X - 1262}{118}[/tex]
[tex]X - 1262 = 0.675*118[/tex]
[tex]X = 1342[/tex]
IQR:
1342 - 1182 = 160

9514 1404 393
Answer:
assumed accuracy from overly precise numbers
Step-by-step explanation:
Except when counting large sums of money or considering definitions, most real-world numbers are not accurate beyond about 6 significant figures. When considering survey or sample results, the accuracy can be considerably less than that, often not even good to 3 significant figures. (Margin of error is usually some number of percentage points greater than 1.)
Expressing the given ratios to 10 significant figures substantially misstates their accuracy. (10^-9 television is less than 1 day's accumulated dust).
Can someone please help?
Step-by-step explanation:
So, so, to attempt this, we need to use the formula :-
2 (l + b) × h ---> For Lateral surface area
2(30+30) h = 7200
2×60×h = 7200
120 × h = 7200
h = 7200/120
h = 60 cm
Now, volume = l×b×h
= 30×30×60
= 54000 cm³ is the required answer.
Hope it helps! :D

The function ()=5^3+3x−6 has inverse function . Find ′(138).
9514 1404 393
Answer:
f⁻¹(138) = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
You want to find the value of x that makes the function have a value of 138:
f(x) = 5x^3 +3x -6
138 = 5x^3 +3x -6
0 = 5x^3 +3x -144
Descartes's rule of signs tells us this has one positive real solution. The rational root theorem gives us 30 possibilities. Rewriting the equation as ...
x^3 = (144 -3x)/5 = 28.8 -0.6x
suggests that the value of x is less than ∛28.8 ≈ 3.065. Trying x=3, we find that to be a solution.
(5x² +3)(x) -6 = 0 . . . . rewrite of the above equation
(5·3² +3)·3 -144 = (48)(3) -144 = 0 . . . . true
Then ...
f⁻¹(138) = 3
_____
The answer is found easily using a graphing calculator. The solution is the x-intercept of 138 -f(x) = 0.

g Vectors ???? and ???? are sides of an equilateral triangle whose sides have length 4. Compute ????⋅????. (Give your solution as a number to one decimal place.
Answer:
[tex]v \cdot w = 8.0[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
See comment for complete question
Given
[tex]|v| = |w| = 4[/tex] --- the side lengths
Required
[tex]v \cdot w[/tex]
[tex]v \cdot w = |v| \cdot |w| \cdot (cos\theta)[/tex]
From the question, we understand that v and w are sides of an equilateral triangle.
This means that:
[tex]\theta = 60^o[/tex] --- angles in an equilateral triangle
So:
[tex]v \cdot w = |v| \cdot |w| \cdot (\cos 60)[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]v \cdot w = 4 * 4 * 0.5[/tex]
[tex]v \cdot w = 8.0[/tex]

Critical value(s) -
Answer:
a) -0.94
b) 0.3472
c) -2.327, 2.327
Step-by-step explanation:
A claim is made that the proportion of 6-10 year-old children who play sports is not equal to 0.5.
At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of 0.5, that is:
[tex]H_0: p = 0.5[/tex]
At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion is different from 0.5, that is:
[tex]H_1: p \neq 0.5[/tex]
The test statistic is:
[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.
0.5 is tested at the null hypothesis:
This means that [tex]\mu = 0.5, \sigma = \sqrt{0.5*(1-0.5)} = 0.5[/tex]
A random sample of 551 children aged 6-10 showed that 48% of them play a sport.
This means that [tex]n = 551, X = 0.48[/tex]
(a) Calculate the value of the test statistic used in this test.
[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
[tex]z = \frac{0.48 - 0.5}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{551}}}[/tex]
[tex]z = -0.94[/tex]
So the answer is -0.94.
(b) Use your calculator to find the P-value of this test.
The p-value of the test is the probability that the sample proportion differs from 0.5 by at least 0.02, which is P(|z| > 0.94), which is 2 multiplied by the p-value of Z = -0.94.
Looking at the z-table, z = -0.94 has a p-value of 0.1736.
2*0.1736 = 0.3472, so 0.3472 is the answer to option b.
(c) Use your calculator to find the critical value(s) used to test this claim at the 0.02 significance level.
Two-tailed test(test if the mean differs from a value), Z with a p-value of 0.02/2 = 0.01 or 1 - 0.01 = 0.99.
Looking at the z-table, this is z = -2.327 or z = 2.327.
Tickets numbered 1 to 20 are mixed up and then a ticket is drawn at random. What is the probability that the ticket drawn has a number which is a multiple of 5?
Answer:
1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability calculates the likelihood of an event occurring. The likelihood of the event occurring lies between 0 and 1. It is zero if the event does not occur and 1 if the event occurs.
For example, the probability that it would rain on Friday is between o and 1. If it rains, a value of one is attached to the event. If it doesn't a value of zero is attached to the event.
probability that the ticket drawn has a number which is a multiple of 5 =
Number of tickets that are a multiple of 5 / total number of tickets
Multiple of 5 = 5, 10, 15, 20
there would be 4 tickets that would be a multiple of 5
= 4/20
To transform to the simplest form. divide both the numerator and the denominator by 4

What is the sum of the first 7 terms of the geometric series:
Answer:
-15.875
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we can sum up the first 5 terms.
-8 + (-4) = -12
-12 + (-2) = -14
-14 + (-1) = -15
-15 + (-1/2) = -15.5
Next, we can find a pattern in the data. We can tell that the next number is one half of the current number. For example, -4 is one half of -8. To find the next number, we simply multiply our current number by one half. Thus, the sixth number is -1/4 and the seventh is -1/8. Adding these to our current total, we have
-15.5 - 1/4 = -15.75
-15.5 - 1/8 = -15.875 as our answer

Consider a parallelogram in which one side is 3 inches long, another side measures 4 inches, and the measurement of one angle is 45°. How many parallelograms can you construct given these conditions? What are the lengths of the sides and the measurements of the angles for the parallelogram(s)? Using the given information, can you determine the lengths of all the sides of the parallelogram? If so, what are the side lengths?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
(a) one parallelogram
(b) opposite sides are 3 inches and 4 inches. Opposite angles are 45° and 135°
(c) yes, all side lengths can be determined, see (b)
Step-by-step explanation:
Opposite sides of a parallelogram are the same length, so if one side is 3 inches, so is the opposite side. Similarly, if one side is 4 inches, so is the opposite side. If sides have different lengths, they must be adjacent sides. The given numbers tell us the lengths of all of the sides.
The 4 inch sides are adjacent to the 3 inch sides. Thus the angle between a 4 inch side and a 3 inch side must be 45°. Opposite angles are congruent, and adjacent angles are supplementary, so specifying one angle specifies them all.
Only one parallelogram can be formed with these sides and angles. (The acute angle can be at the left end or the right end of the long side. This gives rise to two possible congruent orientations of the parallelogram. Because these are congruent, we claim only one parallelogram is possible. Each is a reflection of the other.)
