In a recent poll, 44% of survey respondents said that, if they only had one child, they would prefer the child to be a boy.

viva [34]

Answer:

a) The probability that 71 of 150 will prefer boy child is 71/150 or 0.47

b) The result contradicts the poll actual percentage is 47.33% which is 3.33% more than the poll predicted

Step-by-step explanation:

If 71 out of 150 prefer boy child

The probability that the 71 will prefer boy child is

= 71/150

The actual percentage is

(71/150)*100%

= 47.33%

This contradicts the poll as this is more than the poll predicted. That means Less than 71 of 150 actually preferred boy child.

Solve the equation on the interval [0,2π]

WARRIOR [948]

$\bf 16sin^5(x)+2sin(x)=12sin^3(x)
\\\\\\
16sin^5(x)+2sin(x)-12sin^3(x)=0
\\\\\\
\stackrel{common~factor}{2sin(x)}[8sin^4(x)+1-6sin^2(x)]=0\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
2sin(x)=0\implies sin(x)=0\implies \measuredangle x=sin^{-1}(0)\implies \measuredangle x=
\begin{cases}
0\\
\pi \\
2\pi 
\end{cases}\\\\
-------------------------------$

$\bf 8sin^4(x)+1-6sin^2(x)=0\implies 8sin^4(x)-6sin^2(x)+1=0$

now, this is a quadratic equation, but the roots do not come out as integers, however it does have them, the discriminant, b² - 4ac, is positive, so it has 2 roots, so we'll plug it in the quadratic formula,

$\bf 8sin^4(x)-6sin^2(x)+1=0\implies 8[~[sin(x)]^2~]^2-6[sin(x)]^2+1=0
\\\\\\
~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{quadratic formula}
\\\\
\begin{array}{lcccl}
& 8 sin^4& -6 sin^2(x)& +1\\
&\uparrow &\uparrow &\uparrow \\
&a&b&c
\end{array} 
\qquad \qquad 
sin(x)= \cfrac{ - b \pm \sqrt { b^2 -4 a c}}{2 a}
\\\\\\
sin(x)=\cfrac{-(-6)\pm\sqrt{(-6)^2-4(8)(1)}}{2(8)}\implies sin(x)=\cfrac{6\pm\sqrt{4}}{16}
\\\\\\
sin(x)=\cfrac{6\pm 2}{16}\implies sin(x)=
\begin{cases}
\frac{1}{2}\\\\
\frac{1}{4}
\end{cases}$

$\bf \measuredangle x=
\begin{cases}
sin^{-1}\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)
sin^{-1}\left( \frac{1}{4} \right)
\end{cases}\implies \measuredangle x=
\begin{cases}
\frac{\pi }{6}~,~\frac{5\pi }{6}\\
----------\\
\approx~0.252680~radians\\
\qquad or\\
\approx~14.47751~de grees\\
----------\\
\pi -0.252680\\
\approx 2.88891~radians\\
\qquad or\\
180-14.47751\\
\approx 165.52249~de grees
\end{cases}$

A construction crew is lengthening a road that originally measured 45 miles. The crew is adding one mile to the road each day.

Alla [95]

Answer:

L = 45 + D

Step-by-step explanation:

Examples

D = 2

L = 47 miles

D = 5

L = 50 miles

D = 10

L= 55 miles
