Answer:

$10.00

Step-by-step explanation:

5 % of 100 is 5
5 × 20 = 100
so just multiply .50 by 20 and that comes out to 10 dollars

A particle is moving along the curve y= 4sqrt(5x+11) . As the particle passes through the point (5,24) , its -coordinate increas

kupik [55]

The rate of change of the distance from the particle to the origin at this instant is 3 units per second.

<h3>What is the rate of change?</h3>

The instantaneous rate of change is the rate of change at a particular instant.

A particle is moving along the curve

$y= 4\sqrt{5x+11} .$

The rate of change of y is given as:

dy / dx = 2

by differentiating both sides,

$\dfrac{dy}{dx} = 4\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{5x+11} } 5\dfrac{dx}{dt} \\\\\dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac{10}{\sqrt{5x+11} }\dfrac{dx}{dt}\\\\$

From the question, we have:

(x, y) = (5,24)

Substitute 5 for x and dy / dx = 2

$\dfrac{dy}{dx} = \dfrac{10}{\sqrt{5x+11} }\dfrac{dx}{dt}\\\\\\5= \dfrac{10}{\sqrt{5(5)+11} }\dfrac{dx}{dt}\\\\\\\sqrt{5(5)+11} = 2\dfrac{dx}{dt}\\\\\\\dfrac{dx}{dt} = 6/ 2 = 3$

Hence, the rate of change of the distance from the particle to the origin at this instant is 3 units per second.

g Suppose a factory production line uses 3 machines, A, B, and C for making bolts. The total output from the line is distributed

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

The probability that it came from A, given that is defective is 0.362.

Step-by-step explanation:

Define the events:

A: The element comes from A.

B: The element comes from B.

C: The element comes from C.

D: The elemens is defective.

We are given that P(A) = 0.25, P(B) = 0.35, P(C) = 0.4. Recall that since the element comes from only one of the machines, if an element is defective, it comes either from A, B or C. Using the probability axioms, we can calculate that

$P(D) = P(A\cap D) + P(B\cap D) + P(C\cap D)$

Recall that given events E,F the conditional probability of E given F is defined as

$P(E|F) = \frac{P(E\cap F)}{P(F)}$ , from where we deduce that

$P(E\cap F) = P(E|F)P(F)$ .

We are given that given that the element is from A, the probability of being defective is 5%. That is P(D|A) =0.05. Using the previous analysis we get that

$P(D) = P(A)P(D|A)+P(B) P(D|B) + P(C)P(D|C) = 0.05\cdot 0.25+0.04\cdot 0.35+0.02\cdot 0.4 = 0.0345$

We are told to calculate P(A|D), then using the formulas we have

$P(A|D) = \frac{P(A\cap D)}{P(D)}= \frac{P(D|A)P(A)}{P(D)}= \frac{0.05\cdot 0.25}{0.0345}= 0.36231884$

Jerry had 1 gallon of ice cream he used 3/10 gallon to make chocolate milkshakes and 0.40 gallon to make vanilla milkshakes how

Gre4nikov [31]

Let
x------> the <span>remaining ice cream

we know that
3/10------> 0.30
so

x=1-0.30-0.40-----> x=1-0.70------> x=0.30 gal------> 3/10 gal

the answer is
3/10 gal</span>
