You collect a total of $75 in donations from three people. The three donations are in the ratio 4 to 4 to 7. How much is each of

the smaller donations? And how much greater is the largest donation then one of the smaller donations?

Each smaller donation was for $20 The largest donation was $15 greater than the smaller donation. First, determine the size of each donation. Since they are in a ratio of 4:4:7, it's easiest to add the ratios together (4+4+7) = 15. Then divide the total donation by that sum (75/15) = 5. Finally, multiply 5 by each of the ratios. 5 * 4 = 20, 5 * 4 = 20, and 5 * 7 = 35 So the 2 smaller donations were $20 each, and the largest donation was for $35. The largest donation was $35 - $20 = $15 larger than one of the smaller donations.

Answer:

66.42°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

cos ? = \frac{2}{5} , then

? = cos^{-1} (\frac{2}{5} ) ≈ 66.42° ( to the nearest hundredth )

Section 5.2 Problem 17:
Elina [12.6K]

This DE has characteristic equation

4r^2 - 12r + 9r = (2r - 3)^2 = 0

with a repeated root at r = 3/2. Then the characteristic solution is

y_c = C_1 e^{\frac32 x} + C_2 x e^{\frac32 x}

which has derivative

{y_c}' = \dfrac{3C_1}2 e^{\frac32 x} + \dfrac{3C_2}2 x e^{\frac32x} + C_2 e^{\frac32 x}

Use the given initial conditions to solve for the constants:

y(0) = 3 \implies 3 = C_1

y'(0) = \dfrac52 \implies \dfrac52 = \dfrac{3C_1}2 + C_2 \implies C_2 = -2

and so the particular solution to the IVP is

\boxed{y(x) = 3 e^{\frac32 x} - 2 x e^{\frac32 x}}

In a study of the accuracy of fast food drive-through orders, McDonald’s had 33 orders that were not accurate among 362 orders o
melomori [17]

Answer:

A. We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion of inaccurate orders p is 0.1.

B. Null hypothesis:p=0.1  

Alternative hypothesis:p \neq 0.1  

C. z=\frac{0.0912 -0.1}{\sqrt{\frac{0.1(1-0.1)}{362}}}=-0.558  

D. z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96  z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96

E. Fail to the reject the null hypothesis

F. So the p value obtained was a very high value and using the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we have p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the true proportion of inaccurate orders is not significantly different from 0.1.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

n=362 represent the random sample taken

X=33 represent the number of orders not accurate

\hat p=\frac{33}{363}=0.0912 estimated proportion of orders not accurate

p_o=0.10 is the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level

Confidence=95% or 0.95

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

p_v represent the p value (variable of interest)  

A: Write the claim as a mathematical statement involving the population proportion p

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion of inaccurate orders p is 0.1.

B: State the null (H0) and alternative (H1) hypotheses

Null hypothesis:p=0.1  

Alternative hypothesis:p \neq 0.1  

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:  

z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}} (1)  

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion \hat p is significantly different from a hypothesized value p_o.

C: Find the test statistic

Since we have all the info required we can replace in formula (1) like this:  

z=\frac{0.0912 -0.1}{\sqrt{\frac{0.1(1-0.1)}{362}}}=-0.558  

D: Find the critical value(s)

Since is a bilateral test we have two critical values. We need to look on the normal standard distribution a quantile that accumulates 0.025 of the area on each tail. And for this case we have:

z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96  z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96

P value

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The significance level provided \alpha=0.05. The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a bilateral test the p value would be:  

p_v =2*P(z  

E: Would you Reject or Fail to Reject the null (H0) hypothesis.

Fail to the reject the null hypothesis

F: Write the conclusion of the test.

So the p value obtained was a very high value and using the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we have p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the true proportion of inaccurate orders is not significantly different from 0.1.
