A plumber laying 500meters of drain pipe requires 20men working for 10days. What length in meters would be laid by 50men in 5days, if they all work at same rate?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

50men working in 5days will lay 100 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

If 20men working for 10days lays 500meters

then, 1 man will lay 10,000 meters in 10 days

also, 1 man will lay 1000 meters in 1 day

If 1 man lays 1000 meters in 1 day,

Then, 50 men will lay (1000 meters / 50 );  20 meters in 1 day

also, the same 50 men will lay (20 meters x 5days); 100 meters in 5 days.

Therefore, 50men working in 5days will lay 100 meters

The AARP (American Association of Retired People) report that at least 60% of retired people under the age of 65 would return to work on a full-time basis if a suitable job were available. A sample of 500 retirees under the age of 65 showed that 315 would return to work. Can we conclude that more than 60% would return to work? Test at the 2% level of significance.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportion of retired people under the age of 65 would return to work on a full-time basis if a suitable job were available = 60/100 = 0.6 = P

Null hypothesis: P ≤ 0.6

Alternative: P > 0.6

First, to calculate the hypothesis test, lets workout the standard deviation

SD =  √[ P x ( 1 - P ) / n ]

where P = 0.6, 1 - P = 0.4, n = 500

SD = √[ (0.6 x 0.4) / 500]

SD = √ (0.24 / 500)

SD = √0.00048

SD = 0.022

To calculate for the test statistic, we have:

z = (p - P) / σ where p = 315/500 = 0.63, P = 0.6, σ = 0.022

z = (0.63 - 0.6) / 0.022

z = 0.03/0.022

z = 1.36

At the 2% level of significance, the p value is less than 98% confidence level, thus we reject the null hypothesis  and conclude that more than 60% would return to work.

What is the missing value from the set of data if the mean is 4?
{5,2,_,2,4,8}

Answers

Answer: The missing value from the data set is 4.

Step-by-step explanation: Let's put it from least to greatest to figure it out...

2, 2, (4, 4,) 5, 8,

It would have to be 4, because 8 divided by 2 will equal 4. And because there's an even amount of numbers we have to add two numbers then divide it by 2.

4 + 4 = 8

8 ÷ 2 = 4

The mean is 4, and the missing value from the data set is 4.

Annie was told that her math test score was 3 standard deviations below the mean. If test scores were approximately normal with μ=99 and σ=4, what was Annie's score? Do not include units in your answer. For example, if you found that the score was 99 points, you would enter 99.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]X \sim N(99,4)[/tex]  

Where [tex]\mu=99[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=4[/tex]

We want to find the Annie's score takign in count that the score is 3 deviations below the mean, so then we can find the value with this formula:

[tex] X = \mu -3\sigma[/tex]

And replacing we got:

[tex] X = 99 -3*4 = 87[/tex]

So then the Annie's score would be 87

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the test scores of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

[tex]X \sim N(99,4)[/tex]  

Where [tex]\mu=99[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=4[/tex]

We want to find the Annie's score takign in count that the score is 3 deviations below the mean, so then we can find the value with this formula:

[tex] X = \mu -3\sigma[/tex]

And replacing we got:

[tex] X = 99 -3*4 = 87[/tex]

So then the Annie's score would be 87

Answer: 87

Step-by-step explanation:

We can work backwards using the z-score formula to find the x-value. The problem gives us the values for z, μ and σ. So, let's substitute these numbers back into the formula:

z−3−1287=x−μσ=x−994=x−99=x

We can think of this conceptually as well. We know that the z-score is −3, which tells us that x is three standard deviations to the left of the mean, 99. So we can think of the distance between 99 and the x-value as (3)(4)=12. So Annie's score is 99−12=87.

Suppose the price of a pair of shoes, including 14% vat is R240. The price of the pair of shoes is reduced by 15% on sale. What is the reduced price of the shoes including VAT?

Answers

Answer:

$204

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to find the price without VAT. To calculate it you have to divide the price including VAT by one plus the rate:

Price including VAT= $240

VAT= 14%

240/(1+0.14)= 240/1.14= 210.52

Now, you have to calculate the 15% of 210.52 and subtract that amount from the price:

210.52*0.15=31.57

210.52-31.57=178.95

Then, you have to calculate the 14% VAT by multiplying the price for 1 plus the rate:

178.95*(1+0.14)= 178.95*1.14= 204

According to this, the reduced price of the shoes including VAT is $204.

Answers

Answer: A ≈ 3.25 in squared

Step-by-step explanation:

So we can work backward using the perimeter of a circle formula to find the radius.

Perimeter of a whole circle: C = 2* 3.14 * r

Since we are only given a quarter of the perimeter we need to multiply the 3.57 by 4 to find C.

C = 14.28

Now we can solve for r using algebra.

[tex]14.28 = 2 *3.14*r[/tex]

Multiply 2 and 3.14

[tex]14.28 = 6.28*r[/tex]

Isolate r through division.

[tex]2.2739 =r\\[/tex]

Now that we have the radius of the circle we can plug that into the area of a circle.

Formula: [tex]A = 3.14* r^2[/tex]

Plug in and solve.

[tex]A = 3.14 * 2.2738^2[/tex]

A = 16.2355 in squared

This however is the area of the whole circle it is just looking for a quarter.

So we can divide the area of the whole circle by 4 to find the final answer.

16.2355 / 4 = 3.2471

Now round to the nearest hundreds which is the second number after the decimal.

A ≈ 3.25

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations (a) is the correct one for this situation.  We must now solve this system for x and y, which are the unit costs.

Multiplying the 2nd equation by (-3/2) yields -12x - 18y = -168.

Now eliminate x by combining the two equations

12x + 5 y = 116

-12x  -18y  = - 168

-------------------------

         -13y = -52, or y = 4.

If y = 4 then 12x + 5y = 116, or

                    12x  +5(4) = 116, or

                     12x  +  20  =  116, or

Potatoes cost Janice $1.10 per pound, and she has $6.00 that she could possibly spend on potatoes or other items. If she feels that the first pound of potatoes is worth $1.50, the second pound is worth $1.14, the third pound is worth $1.05, and all subsequent pounds are worth $0.30, how many pounds of potatoes will she purchase? What if she only had $3.00 to spend?

Answers

Answer:

she will purchase 8 pounds of potatoes.

But if she had on $3.0

She will purchase only two pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

first pound of potatoes is worth $1.50, the second pound is worth $1.14, the third pound is worth $1.05, and all subsequent pounds are worth $0.30.

1.5+1.14+1.05+0.30=$ 3.99

6-3.99= 2.01

If the rest cost 0.5

Then there are 4 pounds of 0.5 in 2.01.

So total she will purchase 8 pounds of potatoes.

But if she had on $3.0

She will purchase only two pounds, as it will only purchase1.5+1.14+= 2.64 worth of potatoes.

With $6 Janice can get a total of 10.7 pounds, but with $3  she will be able to afford the first two pounds only

Given Data

Amount at hand = $6

First Pound cost = $1.50

Second Pound cost = $1.14

Third Pound cost = $1.05

Total = 1.5+1.14+1.05 =  3.69

Balance  = 6-3.69 = $2.31

Hence the number of pound we can get with $2.31 for subsequent purchase will be

= 2.31/0.3

= 7.7 pounds

This means that the total number of pounds will be

= 3+7.7

=10.7pounds

subsequent Pound cost = $0.3

5 Samir wants to work out the cost of the tiles needed to replace a roof.
The roof has 4 identical faces.
Each face is a triangle.
Each triangle has a base length of 7.6 m and a height of 4.8 m.
Samir has this information,
roof tiles
1 pack of tiles covers 13.8 m² (including overlaps)
each pack costs £716.10

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the roof has 4 identical faces and each face is a triangle, we would determine the area of each face of the triangle by applying the formula,

Area of triangle = 1/2 × base × height

Area of each triangular face = 1/2 × 7.6 × 4.8 = 18.24m²

Area of the 4 faces = 4 × 18.24 = 72.96 m²

Since 1 pack of tiles covers 13.8 m², the number of packs needed to cover 72.96 m² is

72.96/13.8 = 5.29 packs

Since samir can only buy whole packs of these tiles, the number of packs of tiles that he needs to buy would be 6.

If 1 pack costs £716.1, then the total cost of the tiles needed for the 4 faces of this roof is

6 × 716.1 = £4296.6

Answer:

15.87% probability that 48 or more from this sample were insured by the FHA

Step-by-step explanation:

I am going to use the normal approximation to the binomial to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].

In this problem, we have that:

[tex]p = 0.28, n = 150[/tex]

So

[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 150*0.28 = 42[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{150*0.28*0.72} = 5.5[/tex]

What is the probability that 48 or more from this sample were insured by the FHA?

Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X \geq 48 - 0.5) = P(X \geq 47.5)[/tex], which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 47.5. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{47.5 - 42}{5.5}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.8413.

1 - 0.8413 = 0.1587

15.87% probability that 48 or more from this sample were insured by the FHA

a) 0.206 = 20.6% probability that 2 or fewer will withdraw.

b) 0.2182 = 21.82% probability that exactly 4 will withdraw.

c) 0.5886 = 58.86% probability that more than 3 will withdraw.

d) The expected number of withdrawals is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each student, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they withdraw without completing the introductory statistics course, or they do not. Each student is independent of each other. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

20% of its students withdraw without completing the introductory statistics course.

This means that [tex]p = 0.2[/tex]

Assume that 20 students registered for the course.

This means that [tex]n = 20[/tex]

(a) Compute the probability that 2 or fewer will withdraw.

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{20,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{20} = 0.0115[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{20,1}.(0.2)^{1}.(0.8)^{19} = 0.0576[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{20,2}.(0.2)^{2}.(0.8)^{18} = 0.1369[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.0115 + 0.0576 + 0.1369 = 0.206[/tex]

0.206 = 20.6% probability that 2 or fewer will withdraw.

(b) Compute the probability that exactly 4 will withdraw.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 4) = C_{20,4}.(0.2)^{4}.(0.8)^{16} = 0.2182[/tex]

0.2182 = 21.82% probability that exactly 4 will withdraw.

(c) Compute the probability that more than 3 will withdraw.

Either less than 3 withdraw, or more than 3 withdraw. The sum of the probabilities of these events is 1. So

[tex]P(X \leq 3) + P(X > 3) = 1[/tex]

We want P(X > 3). So

[tex]P(X > 3) = 1 - P(X \leq 3)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)[/tex]

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{20,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{20} = 0.0115[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{20,1}.(0.2)^{1}.(0.8)^{19} = 0.0576[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{20,2}.(0.2)^{2}.(0.8)^{18} = 0.1369[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{20,3}.(0.2)^{3}.(0.8)^{17} = 0.2054[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.0115 + 0.0576 + 0.1369 + 0.2054 = 0.4114[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 3) = 1 - P(X \leq 3) = 1 - 0.4114 = 0.5886[/tex]

0.5886 = 58.86% probability that more than 3 will withdraw.

(d) Compute the expected number of withdrawals.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

E(X) = np

[tex]\chi^2 =\frac{10-1}{18} 23.04 =11.52[/tex]

The degrees of freedom are:

[tex] df =n-1=10-1=9[/tex]

Now we can calculate the critical value taking in count the alternative hypotheis we have two values:

[tex]\chi^2_{\alpha/2}= 2.70[/tex]

[tex]\chi^2_{1-\alpha/2}= 19.02[/tex]

Since the calculated value is between the two critical values we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can't conclude that the true variance is different from 18

Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD)?

A. 1.25

B. 8

C. 3.3

D. 3

Answers

Answer:

1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets sum up the values

24

and then divide by their number (8)

we get 3 on average

now let's see how much each data point varies from that average (this is always a positive value)

1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 3, 0

Let's sum and divide by 8 again

10/8 = 1.25

At a certain gas station 40% of the customers request regular gas, 35% request unleaded gas, and 25% request premium gas. Of those customers requesting regular gas, only 30% fill their tanks all the way up, while the remaining 70% only fill up part of their tank. Of those customers requesting unleaded gas, 60% fill their tanks all the way up, while of those requesting premium, 50% fill their tanks all the way up. If the next customer does not fill the tank all the way up (only fills it up part of the way), what is the probability that they requested regular gas?

Answers

Answer:

51.38% probability that they requested regular gas

Step-by-step explanation:

Bayes Theorem:

Two events, A and B.

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(B)*P(A|B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which P(B|A) is the probability of B happening when A has happened and P(A|B) is the probability of A happening when B has happened.

In this question, we have that:

Event A: Not filling the tank

Event B: Regular gas

40% of the customers request regular gas

This means that [tex]P(B) = 0.4[/tex]

Of those customers requesting regular gas, 70% only fill up part of their tank.

This means that [tex]P(A|B) = 0.7[/tex]

Probability of not filling the tank:

70% of 40%(regular gas)

100 - 60 = 40% of 35%(unleaded gas).

100 - 50 = 50% of 25%(premium gas).

So

[tex]P(A) = 0.7*0.4 + 0.4*0.35 + 0.5*0.25 = 0.545[/tex]

What is the probability that they requested regular gas?

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{0.4*0.7}{0.545}[/tex] = 0.5138

51.38% probability that they requested regular gas

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer will be:

[tex]-\dfrac{62}{23}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that :

Initial temperature, [tex]T_1 = 0^\circ F[/tex]

Final temperature,

[tex]T_2 = -15\dfrac{1}{2}^\circ F\\\Rightarrow T_2 = -\dfrac{15\times 2+1}{2} ^\circ F\\\Rightarrow T_2 = -\dfrac{31}{2} ^\circ F[/tex]

Time taken :

[tex]5\dfrac{3}{4}\ hrs = \dfrac{5 \times 4+3}{4}\ hrs = \dfrac{23}{4}\ hrs[/tex]

Change in temperature per hour:

[tex]\dfrac{\text{Difference of temperature}}{\text{Total Time Taken}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{T_2-T_1}{\text{Total Time Taken}}[/tex]

Putting the values of temperatures and time:

[tex]\dfrac{\dfrac{-31}{2}-0}{\dfrac{23}{4}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{\dfrac{-31}{2}}{\dfrac{23}{4}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{-31 \times 4}{2 \times 23}} \text{---- Error done by Wen at this step}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{-31 \times 2}{23}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{-62}{23}}[/tex]

The error done by Wen was during calculating the values of fraction.

So, the correct answer is :[tex]\frac{-62}{23}}[/tex] instead of [tex]\frac{-713}{8}[/tex]

A store that sells skis buys them from a manufacturer at a wholesale price of $87 The store's markup rate is 50% A. What price does the store charge its customers for the skis? B. What percent of the original price is the final price? C. What is the percent INCREASE from the original price to the final price?

Answers

Answer:

A. $130.50

B. 150%

C. 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find 50% of 87 and add it to find the new price.

87 x 0.5 = 43.5

87 + 43.5 = 130.5

Then, find the percent by doing 130.5 ÷ 87, which is 150%

Calculate the percent increase by doing (130.5-87) ÷ 87, which is 50%

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the markup

87* 50%

87*.50

43.50

Add this to the wholesale price

87+43.50 =130.50

This is what they charge the customer

This is 150% percent of the wholesale price

100% + 50% = 150%

To find the percent increase

Take the new price and subtract the wholesale price

Then divide by the wholesale price

(130.50-87)/87 =50 % increase

Identify the table of values which represents the function y=x+2

Answers

Answer:

Option 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x + 2

Put x as 1, 2 and 3 to find y.

y = (1) + 2

y = 3

y = (2) + 2

y = 4

y = (3) + 2

y = 5

When x = 1, y = 3.

When x = 2, y = 4.

When x = 3, y =5.

The values that represent the function is the first table.

HELPPP The number of members in the Triathlon Club was 36 in 2001 and has increased by 20% each year. Which exponential growth model shows the club's membership in terms of t, the number of years since 2001? s since 2001?

A. y=20(36)t


B. y=36(0.2)t


C. y=36(1.2)t


D. y=36(20)t

Answers

Answer:

C. y=36(1.2)t

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of members in the Club in t years after 2001 is given by an equation in the following format:

[tex]y = y(0)(1+r)^{t}[/tex]

In which y(0) is the number of members in 2001 and r is the growth rate, as a decimal.

The number of members in the Triathlon Club was 36 in 2001 and has increased by 20% each year.

This means that [tex]y(0) = 36, r = 0.2[/tex]

So

[tex]y = y(0)(1+r)^{t}[/tex]

[tex]y = 36(1+0.2)^{t}[/tex]

[tex]y = 36(1.2)^{t}[/tex]

The correct answer is C.
