The director of the library believes that 13% of the library's collection is checked out. If the director is right, what is the probability that the proportion of books checked out in a sample of 774 books would be less than 10%

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability that the proportion of books checked out in a sample of 774 books would be less than 10% is 0.0066

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that The director of the library believes that 13% of the library's collection is checked out.

[tex]\mu = p = 0.13[/tex]

Total no. of books = 774

Standard deviation =[tex]\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Standard deviation = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{0.13(1-0.13)}{774}}=0.012[/tex]

We are supposed to find  the probability that the proportion of books checked out in a sample of 774 books would be less than 10%

[tex]P(\hat{p}<0.1)\\Z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\Z=\frac{0.1-0.13}{0.012}\\Z=-2.48\\P(Z<-2.48)=0.0066[/tex]

So,[tex]P(\hat{p}<0.1)=0.0066[/tex]

Hence  the probability that the proportion of books checked out in a sample of 774 books would be less than 10% is 0.0066

Sven buying 3 1/3 pounds of wood. The wood costs 1.60 per pound. How much did Sven pay?

Answers

Answer:

$5.33

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 3 1/3 lbs of wood and it's $1.60 per lb, then:

Turn the mixed number into an improper fraction first:

3 1/3 = 3/3 + 3/3 + 3/3 + 1/3

        = 10/3

Then, turn 1.60 into an improper fraction too:

1.6 = 1 6/10

     = 1 3/5

     = 5/5 + 3/5

     = 8/5

Then—letting x represent the number of lbs:

8/5x = 8/5 × 10/3

        = (8 × 10)/(5 × 3)

        = 80/15

        = 16/3

To put this in dollar/decimal form, simplify:

16 ÷ 3 = 5.3333333 . . .

          ≈ $5.33

I want to decorate my room with leaves and turkeys for Thanksgiving. The number of leaves is twenty more than twice the number of turkeys. The number of leaves is ten less than 4 times the number of turkeys. How many of each type of decoration should I use?

Answers

Answer:

50 leaves, 15 turkeys

Step-by-step explanation:

set up an equation

l = leaves

t = turkeys

l = 2t+20

l = 4t-10

2t+20=4t-10

30=2t

15=t (so that means that there would be 15 turkey decorations, but we're not            done yet)

substitute (either equation):

l = 2(15)+20

l = 30+20

l = 50 (so this means there would be 50 leaves)

Ok so the area of the frame is 18*12 = 216cm^2

Let’s suppose the width of the frame is x

The total area (painting and frame) is (2x+18)(2x+12) and this is equal to 432

4x^2 + 60x + 216 = 432

4x^2 + 60x - 216 = 0

x^2 + 15x - 54 = 0

(x+18)(x-3) = 0

Therefore x = {-18,3}

Since width of the frame has to be positive, the width has to be 3cm Step-

Variance = 17.61

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the population dataset :

2, 9, 15, 4, 12, 9, 13, 6, 3, 10

1.) Range : (maximum - minimum)

Maximum = 15 ; minimum = 2

Range = (15 - 2) = 13

2.) population mean (μ) :

μ = ΣX / n

n = sample size

μ = (2 + 9 + 15 + 4 + 12 + 9 + 13 + 6 + 3 + 10) / 10

μ = 83 / 10

μ = 8.3

3.) Population variance (s²)

Σ(x - μ)² / n

=[(2 - 8.3)^2 + (9 - 8.3)^2 + (15 - 8.3)^2 + (4 - 8.3)^2 + (12 - 8.3)^2 + (9 - 8.3)^2 + (13 - 8.3)^2 + (6 - 8.3)^2 + (3 - 8.3)^2 + (10 - 8.3)^2] / 10

A total of $20,000 is to be invested, some in bonds and some in certificates of deposit (CDs). If the amount invested in bonds is to exceed that in CDs by $3000, how much will be invested in each type of investment?

Answers

Answer:

$8,500 in CDs; $11,500 in bonds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c = amount invested in CDs.

Let b = amount invested in bonds.

"A total of $20,000 is to be invested, some in bonds and some in certificates of deposit (CDs)."

From the total investment, we get this equation.

c + b = 20000

"If the amount invested in bonds is to exceed that in CDs by $3000"

From the details of the amounts, we get this equation.

b = c + 3000

We have a system of equations in two unknowns.

c + b = 20000  Eq. 1

b = c + 3000  Eq. 2

Since Eq. 2 is already solved for b, we will use the substitution method to solve the system of equations.

Substitute b in Eq. 1 with c + 3000.

c + c + 3000 = 20000

2c + 3000 = 20000

2c = 17000

c = 8500

Now substitute c = 8500 in Eq. 2 and solve for b.

b = c + 3000

b = 8500 + 3000

b = 11500

Answer: $8,500 in CDs; $11,500 in bonds

Plot point F so that △ABC ≅ △FGH. Identify a sequence of rigid motions that maps △ABC onto △FGH and use a theorem to complete the explanation of why the triangles are congruent.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Point F is plotted at (5, 4)

Translate ΔABC so that point B maps to point G.

B(1, -1) → G(0, 3)  

Rule for the translation,

(x, y) → [x - 1, y + 4]

By this rule,

Point C will map the point,

C(-1, -2) → C'[(-1 - 1), (-2 + 4)]

             → C'(-2, 2)

A(-4, 0) → A'[(-4 - 1), (0 + 4)]

           → A'(-5, 4)

Now reflect these points across y-axis.

Rule for the reflection across y-axis,    

(x, y) → (-x, y)

Points after reflection will be,

A'(-5, 4) → F(5, 4)

B'(0, 3) → G(0, 3)

C'(-2, 2) → H(2, 2)

e. Calculate f(-3). Explain what this question is asking you to find in the context of the problem, then discuss the reasonanbleness of this question and its answer.

Answers

Answer:

f(x)=50x+100

a)rate of change is 50

b)y-intercept is 100

c)x represents the no. of weeks

f(x) represents the  the total cost for x weeks.

d)f(12)=700

e)Cost and week cannot be negative

Step-by-step explanation:

Sign up fee at daycare = $100

Cost of 1 week = 50

Cost of x weeks = 50 x

So, Total cost = 100+50x

Thus f(x)=50x+100

a)

General equation : y=mx+c

m = slope = rate of change

On comparison

m = 50

So, rate of change is 50

50 is the cost of daycare per week

b)

y intercept : y intercept is a point where a line 's graph intersects (crosses) the Y-axis i.e. x=0

Substitute x = 0 in equation

f(x)=50(0)+100

f(0)=100

So, y-intercept is 100

$100 is a signup fee

c)

x represents the no. of weeks

f(x) represents the  the total cost for x weeks.

d)

Substitute x = 12

So, Cost for a baby to attend daycare for 12 weeks:

f(12)=50(12)+100

f(12)=700

e)

f(-3)=50(-3)+100=-50

Here it is asking about negative 3 weeks which is not possible

Since no. of weeks cannot be negative

On solving we are getting the negative total cost

Cost and week cannot be negative

Answers

Answer:

(13, -10, -7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x+y+z=−4 .................. 1

2x+3y−2z=10 .................... 2

−x+2y−3z=−12 ................... 3

Reduce the equation to two equations, two unknowns:

Add eqn 1 and 3

y+2y+(z-3z) = -4-12

3y - 2z = -16 .......... 4

Also multiply eqn 3 by 2:

−2x+4y−6z=−24 ................... 5

Add 2 to 5:

3y+4y+ (-2z-6z) = 10-24

7y-8z = -14 ............... 6

Equate 4 and 6

3y - 2z = -16 .......... 4 * 4

7y-8z = -14 ............... 6 * 1

...............................................

12y - 8z = -64

7y-8z = -14

Subtract the resulting equations

12y-7y = -64+14

5y = -50

y = -50/5

y = -10

Substitute y = -10 into equation 4 to get z:

3y - 2z = -16

3(-10)-2z = -16

-30-2z = -16

-2z = -16+30

-2z = 14

z = 14/-2

z = -7

Substitute y = -10, z = -7 into eqn 1 to get x:

x+y+z = -4

x-10-7 = -4

x-17 = -4

x = -4+17

x = 13

Hence (x, y, z) is (13, -10, -7)
