Consider the probability that fewer than 46 out of 134 students will not pass their college placement exams. Assume the probability that a given student will not pass their college placement exam is 98%. Specify whether the normal curve can be used as an approximation to the binomial probability by verifying the necessary conditions.
a. Yes
b. No

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

b. No

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial approximation to the normal:

Binomial distribution has n trials, with p probability.

If

[tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and [tex]n(1-p) \geq 10[/tex], it can be approximated to the normal distribution.

Assume the probability that a given student will not pass their college placement exam is 98%.

This means that [tex]p = 0.98[/tex]

134 students:

This means that [tex]n = 134[/tex]

Necessary conditions:

[tex]np = 134*0.98 = 131.32 \geq 10[/tex]

[tex]n(1-p) = 134*0.02 = 2.68 < 10[/tex]

Since the necessary condition n(1-p) < 10 is not satisfied, the answer is No, given by option b.

On a certain hot summer's day, 321 people used the public swimming pool. The daily prices are $1.75 for children and $2.00 for adults. The receipts for admission totaled $634.25. How many children and how many adults swam at the public pool that day?​

Answers

Answer:

31 children and 290 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = number of adults and c = number of children.

a + c = 321

2a + 1.75c = 634.25

Multiply both sides of the the first equation by -2 and add it to the second equation.

         -2a -     2c = -642

(+)       2a + 1.75c = 634.25

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

                 -0.25c = -7.75

Divide both sides by -0.25

c = 31

Use the first equation to find a.

a + c = 321

Substitute 31 for c.

a + 31 = 321

Subtract 31 from both sides.

a = 290

Answer: 31 children and 290 adults

120 children and 388 adults bought tickets for the swimming pool
Explanation:
Create two simultanous equations:
Let c stand for the number of children that bought a ticket, and a stand for the number of adults that bought a ticket, you get your first equation, being
c
+
a
=
508
then, you now create a second equation for the prices of the tickets.
(price of childrens tickets)(number of children that swam)+(price of adults tickets)(number of adults that swam) = total money collected
so:
1.75
c
+
2.25
a
=
1083.00

now we still know, that
a
=
508

c

so we can substitute it into the second formula
1.75
c
+
2.25
(
508

c
)
=
1083

now its just simple algebra
1.75
c
+
1143

2.25
c
=
1083

60
=
0.5
c
so:
c
=
120
now we know, that 120 children went to the swimming pool.
and we still have the formula from before:
a
=
508

c
so
a
=
388

-5 a root of the Quadratic
equation n² - 8n-65 = o.
What is the other root of the
equation​

Answers

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a quadratic equation meaning it has 2 factors and since one of it has root -5, the first factor is (n + 5),

So, we have (n + 5)(n + a) = n^2 + an + 5n + 5a

Thus, by comparison,

n^2 + (5 + a)n + 5a = n^2 - 8n - 65 = 0

5 + a = -8

5a = -65

a = -13

Thus, the other factor is (n -13) and root is 13

Answers

Answer:

  d.  1.1×10^6

Step-by-step explanation:

As with other kinds of sums, factoring out a common factor can make it easier.

  (7.3×10^5) + (3.7×10^5) = (7.3 +3.7)×10^5 = 11.0×10^5

Please note this is the sum, and it matches answer choice B, but it is not "scientific notation." To put this back in scientific notation, we must move the decimal point 1 place to the left. That rewrite looks like ...

  11.0×10^5 = (1.1×10^1)×10^5 = 1.1×(10^1×10^5) = 1.1×10^(1+5) = 1.1×10^6

Answers

Answer:

The limit does not exist

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step would be to try to evaluate the functions at x = 0

5x - 9 => 5(0) - 9 = -9

| 2 - x | => | 2 - 0 | = 2

So they can be evaluated at x = 0, and it gives two different answers so the limit does not exist

Answer:

The limit does not exist

Step-by-step explanation:

By evaluating both functions we see that we get -9 and 2, because they are not equal to each other the limit does not exist.

What is Triangle?

A triangle is a three-sided polygon that consists of three edges and three vertices.

Given that  side lengths of a triangle are 12, 19, and x units.

We need to find the value of x.

We know that the third side of any triangle must be more than the difference between the other two sides.

x is greater than difference of nineteen and twelve

x>19-12

x>7 (or) 7<x

The third side of any triangle must be less than the sum of the other two sides.

x<19+12

x<31 (or) 31>x

From this we get the interval as

7<x<31 (or) 31>x>7

Hence, 7<x<31 are the possible values of x.

tan(∠A) = [tex]\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}[/tex]

A manufacturer is planning to sell a new product for $150 each and estimates that if it spends x thousand dollars on development and y thousand dollars on promotion will sell approximately
320y/(y+2) + 160x/(x+4) unit
The cost to produce each unit of that product is $50. If the producer spends a total of $8,000 on development and promotion, how should this money be allocated to get the maximum profit?

Answers

The maximum profit is achieved when the manufacturer spends $4,000 on development and $4,000 on promotion.

How to calculate the profit

The profit is given by

(150 - 50) * (320y/(y+2) + 160x/(x+4)) - x - y

= 100 * (320y/(y+2) + 160x/(x+4)) - x - y

= 32000y/(y+2) + 16000x/(x+4) - x - y

We want to maximize this function subject to the constraint that x + y = 8.

We can do this by using Lagrange multipliers. The Lagrangian is given by

L = 32000y/(y+2) + 16000x/(x+4) - x - y + lambda(x + y - 8)

Setting the partial derivatives of L with respect to x, y, and lambda equal to zero, we get the following equations:

32000/(y+2) - 1 - lambda = 0

16000/(x+4) - 1 - lambda = 0

x + y - 8 = 0

Solving these equations, we get x = 4, y = 4, and lambda = 0.

Therefore, the maximum profit is achieved when the manufacturer spends $4,000 on development and $4,000 on promotion.
