Answer:

Option 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Mike asked a random camper from each of the 12 cabins how many siblings he or she had.

The given data set is

3, 2, 0, 1, 0, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 2, 1

Sum of observations = 3+2+0+1+0+2+3+4+1+2+2+1=21

Number of observations = 12

Formula for mean:

[tex]Mean=\dfrac{\text{Sum of observations}}{\text{Number of observations}}[/tex]

[tex]Mean=\dfrac{21}{12}[/tex]

[tex]Mean=1.75[/tex]

Round the population to the nearest unit.

[tex]Mean=2[/tex]

We have to use Mike’s data to infer the mean of the population. So, the mean of sample is equal to the mean of population.

The mean number of siblings for the population is 2 siblings.

Therefore, the correct option is 2.

Answer:

the right answer is B

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: Yes, made a mistake by taking out 2 in second step.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have started with 15 sticks= 13+2

So you take 2 which is correct.

Now, your friend takes one 13=12+1, so that leaves 12.

Now 12=8+3+1 since this involves smallest number 1 so you should have taken 1 at this point instead you took two here. So it leaves you with 10. Now, your friend takes one from it i.e. 10=9+1  leaving 9 now. Now 9=8+1, you can still take 1 from it and still be in the game. The point is to take out the smallest number involved. in the sum equal to the number that is left behind.

In Fibonacci nim, you cannot take the same number of sticks as your opponent did on the previous turn. Your next move should be to take 2 sticks, as your opponent took 1 on their last turn. You haven't yet made any mistakes in the game.

In the game of Fibonacci nim, the only rule is that on each turn a player can take one or two sticks, but not the same amount as their opponent took on the previous turn. Let's track your game:

For the next move, you can take either 1 or 2 sticks, but since your friend took 1 on their last turn, you must take 2 to abide by the rules. So, your next move should be to take 2 sticks.

Process

1.- Order the numbers from lowest to highest

              4   9   17   22   24   28   51   76   83   98

2.- Look for the middle number, if the total number of items is pair, take the 2 middle number and divide by two.

Middle numbers = 24 and 28

Median = (24 ´+ 28) / 2

Median = 52/2

Median = 26

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First the numbers are arranged in ascending order from the least to the biggest number:

The points in the diagram are neither collinear (lying on the same line) nor coplanar (lying on the same plane) as some points are not in alignment or on the same level.

The correct answer is option C.

Collinearity and coplanarity are geometric concepts used to describe the relative positions of points in space. To clarify, collinear points lie on the same straight line, while coplanar points lie on the same flat plane.

In your specific scenario, it is evident that the points under consideration do not satisfy the criteria for either collinearity or coplanarity. Here's an expanded explanation:

Collinearity:

Collinear points are points that can be connected by a single straight line. In simpler terms, if you can draw a straight line that passes through all the points without lifting your pen, those points are collinear. However, based on the provided diagram and description, it is clear that not all the points can be connected in this way. Some points are positioned in such a manner that a single straight line cannot pass through all of them.

Coplanarity:

Coplanar points are points that lie within the same flat plane. If you can imagine a flat surface that contains all the points, those points are coplanar. In the given scenario, it is apparent that the points are not all situated within the same plane. Some points are at different heights or elevations compared to others, indicating that they do not lie within a common flat plane.

In conclusion, the points in the diagram do not meet the conditions for either collinearity or coplanarity. They cannot be connected by a single straight line, nor do they all reside on the same flat plane.

Therefore, from the given options the correct one is C.

Where do I share a photo of my work

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) the sum of the angles on a straight line is 180°.

Let x represent the measure of the smaller angle.

The measure of one angle is twice the measure of the other angle. This means that the larger angle is 2x. Therefore,

x + 2x = 180

3x = 180

x = 180/3 = 60

The measure of the smaller angle is 60°

The measure of the larger angle is 2 × 60 = 120°

2) The measure of one angle is 1/3 the measure of the other angle. If the measure of the larger angle is x, then the measure of the smaller angle is x/3. Therefore,

x + x/3 = 180

Multiplying through by 3, it becomes

3x + x = 180 × 3 = 540

4x = 540

x = 540/4 = 135

The smaller angle measures

135/3 = 45°

The larger angle measures 135°

3) the sum of complimentary angles is 180°

The measure of an angle is nine times the measure of its complement. If the measure of the smaller angle is x, then the measure of the larger angle is 9x. Therefore,

x + 9x = 90

10x = 90

x = 90/10 = 9

The smaller angle measures 9°

The larger angle measures 9 × 9 = 81°

4) The measure of an angle is 1/4 the measure of its complement.

If the measure of the larger angle is x, then the measure of the smaller angle is x/4. Therefore,

x/4 + x = 90

Multiplying through by 4, it becomes

x + 4x = 360

5x = 360

x = 360/5 = 72

The smaller angle measures 72/4 = 18°

The larger angle measures 72°

Answer:

The answer to your question is it sold 7 cakes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

cakes = c = $5

pies = p = $7

total pieces = 15

total sell = $91

Process

1.- Write equations to solve this problem

                  c + p = 15      ------------ l

                5c + 7p = 91    ----------- ll

2.- Solve the system of equations by elimination

Multiply equation I by -5      

               -5c - 5p = -75

                 5c + 7p = 91

                 0   + 2p = 16

Solve for p

                            p = 16/2

                            p = 8

3.- Substitute p in equation l to find c

                 c + 8 = 15

solve for c

                 c = 15 - 8

                 c = 7

4.- Conclusion

It sold 7 cakes and 8 pies.

Answer: 7 cakes were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of cakes that were sold.

Let y represent the number of cakes that were sold.

The cakes are $5 and the pies are $7. The store makes a total of $91. This means that

5x + 7y = 91- - - - - - -- -1

The store sold a total number of 15 goods. This means that

x + y = 15

Substituting x = 15 - y into equation 1, it becomes

5(15 - y) + 7y = 91

75 - 5y + 7y = 91

- 5y + 7y = 91 - 75

2y = 16

x = 16/2 = 8

x = 15 - y = 15 - 8

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two given coordinate points is 11 units. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.

The distance formula which is used to find the distance between two points in a two-dimensional plane is also known as the Euclidean distance formula. On 2D plane the distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is Distance = √[(x₂-x₁)²+(y₂-y₁)²].

The given coordinate points are (-3, 2) and (2, -8).

Substitute (x₁, y₁) =(-3, 2) and (x₂, y₂)= (2, -8) in the distance formula, we get

Distance = √[(2+3)²+(-8-2)²]

= √[5²+(-10)²]

= √125

= 11.18

≈ 11

The distance between two given coordinate points is 11 units. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.

Answer:

Amount invested at 6% equals $35200; Amount invested at 10% equals $17600

Step-by-step explanation:

For simple interest; A = P (1 + rt), where;

A= final amount, P=principal , r = rate , t = time in years

Let the amount invested in the 6% yielding account be 'x' and the amount invested in the 10% yielding account be 'y'.

From the question, the man invests twice as much in the lower yielding, Therefore;

⇒ x = 2y

Interest = A - P = Prt

Total interest = (Interest for 6% yielding account) + (Interest for 6% yielding account)

⇒ 3872 = ( [tex]x[/tex] X 0.06 x 1) + ( [tex]y[/tex] X 0.10 x 1)

⇒ 3872 = (2[tex]y[/tex] x 0.06 x 1) + ([tex]y[/tex] x 0.10 x 1)

⇒ 3872 = 0.12[tex]y[/tex] + 0.10[tex]y[/tex]

⇒ y = $17600

⇒ x = 2y = $ 35200

Answer: Amount invested at 6% equals $35200

Amount invested at 10% equals $17600

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount invested at 6%.

Let y represent the amount invested at 10%.

He puts twice as much in the lower-yielding account because it is less risky. This means that

x = 2y

The formula for determining simple interest is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Where

P represents the principal

R represents the rate of investment

T represents the time in years.

Considering the amount invested at 6%,

I = (x × 6 × 1)/100 = 0.06x

Considering the amount invested at 10%,

I = (y × 10 × 1)/100 = 0.1y

If his annual interest is $3872, it means that

0.06x + 0.1y = 3872 - - - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 2y into equation 1, it becomes

0.06 × 2y + 0.1y = 3872

0.12y + 0.1y = 3872

0.22y = 3872

y = 3872/0.22

y = 17600

x = 2y = 2 × 17600

x = 35200

Answer: 5040ways

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a circular permutation question. Arrangement of objects in a circular path is (n-1)! where n is the amount of object. Since there are 8 students sitting in a circle excluding their teacher, they can sit in (8-1)! ways i.e 7! ways

7! = 7×6×5×4×3×2×1

7! = 5040ways

This means the students can sit in a circle in 5,040 ways

Final answer:

To find out the number of ways 8 students can sit in a circle, we calculate 7! (7 factorial), as the formula for arrangements in a circle is (n-1)!, resulting in 5040 ways.

Explanation:

The question involves determining the number of ways 8 students can sit in a circle. When arranging n distinct objects in a circle, the number of arrangements is given by (n-1)! .

since one position is fixed to account for the circular arrangement's rotational symmetry. In this case, with 8 students, the calculation is as follows: 7! = 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 = 5040 ways.

Therefore, the students can sit in a circle in 5040 different ways.

The work done against gravity in constructing the rectangular box is 3136000 J.

Explanation:

To calculate the work done against gravity in constructing the rectangular box, we need to first calculate the mass of the box. The density of the lightweight material is given as 800 kg/m³. Since the base of the box is a square with side lengths of 4 m and the height is 5 m, the volume of the box is V = (4 m)(4 m)(5 m) = 80 m³.

The mass of the box can be calculated using the formula mass = density × volume. Therefore, the mass of the box is [tex](800 kg/m^3)(80 m^3) = 64000 kg.[/tex]

The work done against gravity is given by the formula work = mass × gravity × height. Assuming the acceleration due to gravity is approximately 9.8 m/s², the work done against gravity is [tex](64000 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)(5 m) = 3136000 J.[/tex]

Answer:

Option c) Because the p-value is greater than the significance level, there is convincing evidence that the population mean number of ounces dispensed into a bottle is 12 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 12 ounces

Sample size, n = 50

Alpha, α = 0.05

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

[tex]H_{0}: \mu = 12\\H_A: \mu < 12[/tex]

We use one-tailed  test to perform this hypothesis.

P-value = 0.08

Since the p value is greater than the significance level, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and accept it.

Thus, the machine is working properly and dispense 12 ounces of a beverage into a bottle.

Option c) Because the p-value is greater than the significance level, there is convincing evidence that the population mean number of ounces dispensed into a bottle is 12 ounces.

Since the p-value found is more than the level of significance, thus in such case, we can't reject the null hypothesis, and thus accept it.

Thus:

"Option C): c. Because the p-value is greater than the significance level, there is convincing evidence that the population mean number of ounces dispensed into a bottle is 12 ounces.

Given that:

Since the p-value found is more than the level of significance, thus in such case, we can't reject the null hypothesis, and thus accept it.

Null hypothesis is the favored hypothesis which we test. The test's result just tells whether the null hypothesis is acceptable or not. The alternative hypothesis is accepted when the null hypothesis is rejected, else we accept the null hypothesis.

Thus,  [tex]H_0 : \mu = 12 = \mu_0[/tex]   is accepted as  [tex]\text{p-value} = 0.08 > 0.05 = \alpha[/tex]   and we deduce that:

"Option C: Because the p-value is greater than the significance level, there is convincing evidence that the population mean number of ounces dispensed into a bottle is 12 ounces."

Answer:

38.9 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the difference in area covered by a single 3 inch windshield wiper operating with a central angle of 138 degrees compared to a pair of 5 inch wipers operating together each having a central angle of 114 degrees.

We will use area of sector formula to solve our given problem as:

[tex]\text{Area of sector}=\frac{\theta}{360}\times \pi r^2[/tex], where, r represents radius and theta represents central angle.

Let us find area of sector with central angle 140 degree and radius 3 inch.

[tex]\text{Area of sector}=\frac{138}{360}\times \pi (3)^2[/tex]

[tex]\text{Area of sector}=\frac{138}{360}\times 9\pi[/tex]

[tex]\text{Area of sector}=10.83849[/tex]

Now, we will find area of sector with central angle 114 degree and radius 5 inch and multiply by 2 as:

[tex]\text{Area of sector}=2(\frac{114}{360}\times \pi (5)^2)[/tex]

[tex]\text{Area of sector}=2(\frac{114}{360}\times 25\pi)[/tex]

[tex]\text{Area of sector}=\frac{114}{360}\times 50\pi[/tex]

[tex]\text{Area of sector}=49.74188[/tex]

Let us find difference of area as shown below:

[tex]\text{Difference of areas}=49.74188-10.83849[/tex]

[tex]\text{Difference of areas}=38.90339[/tex]

[tex]\text{Difference of areas}\approx 38.9[/tex]

Therefore, the difference in area covered is approximately 38.9 square inches.

Final answer:

Calculate the areas covered by differently sized and angled windshield wipers to find the difference.

Explanation:

Single 3-inch wiper:

Pair of 5-inch wipers:

The difference in area cleaned by the pair of 5-inch wipers compared to the single 3-inch wiper is:

A-diff = A-combined - A-single ≈ 31.50 sq in - 7.07 sq in ≈ 24.43 sq in

Therefore, the pair of 5-inch wipers cleans approximately 24.43 square inches more area than the single 3-inch wiper.

The wards decided to use carpet tiles in the family room. The room has an area of 176 square feet and is 5 feet longer than it is wide.

Now, to get the dimensions.

Let the width be [tex]x.[/tex]

So, the length = [tex]x+5.[/tex]

Area = 176 square foot.

So, we put formula of area to get the dimensions:

Area = length × width.

[tex]176=(x+5)\times x[/tex]

[tex]176=x^2+5x[/tex]

Subtracting boths sides by 176 we get:

[tex]0=x^2+5x-176\\x^2+5x-176=0[/tex]

On solving the equation:

[tex]x^2+16x-11x-176=0\\x(x+16)-11(x+16)=0\\(x+16)(x-11)=0[/tex]

As,

[tex]x+16[/tex] = 0

[tex]x=-16[/tex]

So, we would not take the negative result.

Thus,

[tex]x-11=0\\x=11[/tex]

So, the width = 11 feet.

Now, to get the length by substituting the value of [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]x+5\\=11+5\\=16[/tex]

The length = 16 feet.

Therefore, the dimensions of the room are length is 16 feet and the width is 11 feet.

The width is 11 feet, and the length is 5 feet longer, making it 16 feet.

To determine the dimensions of the family room, we start by defining the width of the room as w. According to the problem, the length (l) is 5 feet longer than the width, so we can write this as:

l = w + 5

We also know the area of the room is 176 square feet. The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying the width and length:

Area = width × length

Therefore, we get the equation:

w × (w + 5) = 176

Expanding this equation gives us:

w² + 5w = 176

We rearrange this into a standard quadratic equation:

w² + 5w - 176 = 0

Now we solve for w using the quadratic formula, w = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac)) / 2a, where:

This gives us:

w = (-5 ± √(25 + 704)) / 2

w = (-5 ± √729) / 2

w = (-5 ± 27) / 2

Which simplifies to:

w = 11 or w = -16

Since width cannot be negative, we have:

w = 11

Then the length l is:

l = 11 + 5 = 16

Therefore, the dimensions of the family room are 11 feet by 16 feet.
