Answer:

The solution of the expression is x=1.584.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Expression $2^x=3$

To find : Solve the expression round to the nearest ten thousandth?

Solution :

Step 1 - Write the expression,

$2^x=3$

Step 2 - Taking log both side,

$\log (2^x)=\log (3)$

Step 3 - Apply logarithmic property, $\log a^x=x\log a$

$x\log (2)=\log (3)$

Step 4 - Solve,

$x=\frac{\log (3)}{\log (2)}$

$x=\frac{0.477}{0.301}$

$x=1.584$

Therefore, The solution of the expression is x=1.584.

A plant produces 500 units/hour of an item with dimensions of 4” x 6” x 2”. The manager wants to store two weeks of supply in co

mart [117]

Answer:

564 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

To account for the extra space between units, we can add 2" to every unit dimension and every box dimension to figure the number of units per box.

Doing that, we find the storage box dimensions (for calculating contents) to be ...

3 ft 2 in × 4 ft 2 in × 2 ft 2 in = 38 in × 50 in × 26 in

and the unit dimensions to be ...

(4+2)" = 6" × (6+2)" = 8" × (2+2)" = 4"

A spreadsheet can help with the arithmetic to figure how many units will fit in the box in the different ways they can be arranged. (See attached)

When we say the "packing" is "462", we mean the 4" (first) dimension of the unit is aligned with the 3' (first) dimension of the storage box; the 6" (second) dimension of the unit is aligned with the 4' (second) dimension of the storage box; and the 2" (third) dimension of the unit is aligned with the 2' (third) dimension of the storage box. The "packing" numbers identify the unit dimensions, and their order identifies the corresponding dimension of the storage box.

We can see that three of the four allowed packings result in 216 units being stored in a storage box.

If storage boxes are stacked 4 deep in a 9' space, the 2' dimension must be the vertical dimension, and the floor area of each stack of 4 boxes is 3' × 4' = 12 ft². There are 216×4 = 864 units stored in each 12 ft² area.

If we assume that 2 weeks of production are 80 hours of production, then we need to store 80×500 = 40,000 units. At 864 units per 12 ft² of floor space, we need ceiling(40,000/864) = 47 spaces on the floor for storage boxes. That is ...

47 × 12 ft² = 564 ft²

of warehouse floor space required for storage.

If a(x) = 3x + 1 and b(x)= squareroot x-4, what is the domain of (b*a)(x)?

oksano4ka [1.4K]

$\boxed{ \ x \geq 1 \ }$ or can be written as $\boxed{ \ [1, \infty) \ }$

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

This is a question about the composition of functions and how to get a domain function.

Given $\boxed{ \ a(x) = 3x + 1 \ }$ and $\boxed{ \ b(x) = \sqrt{x - 4} \ }$ .

We will form (b o a)(x) and then determine the domain.

$\boxed{ \ (b \circ a)(x) = b(a(x)) \ }$

Replace each appearance of x in b(x) with $\boxed{ \ a(x) = 3x + 1 \ }$ .

$\boxed{ \ (b \circ a)(x) = \sqrt{(3x + 1) - 4} \ }$

Thus, $\boxed{ \ (b \circ a)(x) = \sqrt{3x - 3} \ }$

To be defined, the value under the radical sign must not be negative. Therefore, the domain of $(b \circ a)(x) = \sqrt{3x - 3}$ are processed as follows.

$\boxed{ \ 3x - 3 \geq 0 \ }$

Both sides added by 3.

$\boxed{ \ 3x \geq 3 \ }$

Both sides divided by 3.

$\boxed{ \ x\geq 1 \ }$

Thus, the domain of $(b \circ a)(x) = \sqrt{3x - 3}$ is $\boxed{ \ x \geq 1 \ }$ or can be written as $\boxed{ \ [1, \infty) \ }$

A study was conducted and two types of engines, A and B, were compared. Fifty experiments were performed using engine A and 75 u

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

a) -6 mpg.

b) 2.77 mpg

c) The 95% confidence interval for the difference of population mean gas mileages for engines A and B and interpret the results, in mpg, is (-8.77, -3.23).

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the central limit theorem, and subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean $\mu = p$ and standard deviation $s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Gas mileage A: Mean 36, standard deviation 6, sample of 50:

$\mu_A = 36, s_A = \frac{6}{\sqrt{50}} = 0.8485$

Gas mileage B: Mean 42, standard deviation 8, sample of 50:

$\mu_B = 42, s_B = \frac{8}{\sqrt{50}} = 1.1314$

Distribution of the difference:

Mean:

$\mu = \mu_A - \mu_B = 36 - 42 = -6$

Standard error:

$s = \sqrt{s_A^2+s_B^2} = \sqrt{0.8485^2+1.1314^2} = 1.4142$

A. Find the point estimate.

This is the difference of means, that is, -6 mpg.

B. Find the margin of error

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1 - \alpha$ .

That is z with a pvalue of $1 - 0.025 = 0.975$ , so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

$M = zs = 1.96*1.4142 = 2.77$

The margin of error is of 2.77 mpg

C. Construct the 95% confidence interval for the difference of population mean gas mileages for engines A and B and interpret the results(5 pts)

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is -6 - 2.77 = -8.77 mpg

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is -6 + 2.77 = -3.23 mpg

The 95% confidence interval for the difference of population mean gas mileages for engines A and B and interpret the results, in mpg, is (-8.77, -3.23).
