The radius of a sphere decreases at a rate of 6 m/sec. find the rate at which the surface area decreases when the radius is 20 m

DanielleElmas [232]

The radius of the sphere decreases at the rate of 6 m/ sec

That is, $\frac{dr}{dt}=-6$

Surface Area of the sphere of radius r is given by $S=4\pi r^2$

Differentiating with respect to t,

$\frac{dS}{dt}=4\pi (2r)\frac{dr}{dt}=8\pi r\frac{dr}{dt}$

$\frac{dS}{dt}=8\pi (20)^2(-6)=-960\pi \: m^2/sec$

According to a 2018 survey by Bankrate, 20% of adults in the United States save nothing for retirement (CNBC website). Suppose t

nalin [4]

Answer:

0.5981 = 59.81% probability that three or less of the selected adults have saved nothing for retirement

Step-by-step explanation:

For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they save nothing for retirement, or they save something. The probability of an adult saving nothing for retirement is independent of any other adult. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

20% of adults in the United States save nothing for retirement (CNBC website).

This means that $p = 0.2$

Suppose that sixteen adults in the United States are selected randomly.

This means that $n = 16$

What is the probability that three or less of the selected adults have saved nothing for retirement?

This is:

$P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{16,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{16} = 0.0281$

$P(X = 1) = C_{16,1}.(0.2)^{1}.(0.8)^{15} = 0.1126$

$P(X = 2) = C_{16,2}.(0.2)^{2}.(0.8)^{14} = 0.2111$

$P(X = 3) = C_{16,3}.(0.2)^{3}.(0.8)^{13} = 0.2463$

$P(X \leq 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.0281 + 0.1126 + 0.2111 + 0.2463 = 0.5981$

0.5981 = 59.81% probability that three or less of the selected adults have saved nothing for retirement

F=1.8C+32 solve for given variable

liq [111]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula F = 1.8C + 32 can be used to find the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit F when the temperature is given in degrees Celsius C. For what value is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit equal to the temperature in degrees Celsius? Justify your reasoning by writing and solving an equation. (Hint: If Fahrenheit and Celsius are equal, they can be assigned the same variable.)

A realtor would like to create a 95% confidence interval for the average price of a house in Franklin County, Ohio. To accomplis

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

$320128-1.96\frac{50324}{\sqrt{529}}=315839.52$

$320128+1.96\frac{50324}{\sqrt{529}}=324416.48$

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (315839.52;324416.48)

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X=320128$ represent the sample mean

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

$\sigma=50324$ represent the population standard deviation

n=529 represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of $\alpha=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-NORM.INV(0.025,0,1)".And we see that $z_{\alpha/2}=1.96$

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

$320128-1.96\frac{50324}{\sqrt{529}}=315839.52$

$320128+1.96\frac{50324}{\sqrt{529}}=324416.48$

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (315839.52;324416.48)
