Mai's mother was 28 when Mai was born. Mai is now 12 years old. In how many years will Mai's mother be twice Mai's Age

Mathematics
1 answer:
noname [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number of years

In x years, Mai's mother's age will be: 28 + x

                         and Mai's age will be:  12 + x

Then,                                      28 + x = 2(12 +   x)

Distribute the 2                      28 + x =    24 + 2x

Subtract 24 from each side     4 + x =            2x

Subtract x from each side             x = 4

In four years, Mai's mother will be twice Mai's age.

<em>Check: </em>

28 + 4 = 2(12 + 4)

   32   = 2 ×  16

   32   =   32

Answer:

a) For this case we can use the following R code to construct the qq plot

> data<-c(28.8, 24.4, 30.1, 25.6, 26.4, 23.9, 22.1, 22.5, 27.6, 28.1, 20.8, 27.7, 24.4, 25.1, 24.6, 26.3, 28.2, 22.2, 26.3, 24.4)

# The above line is in order to store the data in a vector

> qqnorm(data, pch = 1, frame = FALSE)

# The line above is in order to calculate the quantiles from the data assumin Normal distribution

> qqline(data, col = "steelblue", lwd = 2)

# The line above is in order to put a line for the theoretical dsitribution

The result is on the figure attached.

b) For this case as we can see on the figure attached the calculated quantiles are not far from the theorical quantiles given byt the straaigth blue line so then we can conclude that the distribution seems to be normal.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following data:

28.8, 24.4, 30.1, 25.6, 26.4, 23.9, 22.1, 22.5, 27.6, 28.1, 20.8, 27.7, 24.4, 25.1, 24.6, 26.3, 28.2, 22.2, 26.3, 24.4

The quantile-quantile or q-q plot is a graphical procedure in order to check the validity of a distributional assumption for a data set. We just need to calculate "the theoretically expected value for each data point based on the distribution in question".

If the values are asusted to the assumed distribution, we will see that "the points on the q-q plot will fall approximately on a straight line"

For this case our distribution assumed is normal.

Part a

For this case we can use the following R code to construct the qq plot

> data<-c(28.8, 24.4, 30.1, 25.6, 26.4, 23.9, 22.1, 22.5, 27.6, 28.1, 20.8, 27.7, 24.4, 25.1, 24.6, 26.3, 28.2, 22.2, 26.3, 24.4)

# The above line is in order to store the data in a vector

> qqnorm(data, pch = 1, frame = FALSE)

# The line above is in order to calculate the quantiles from the data assuming Normal distribution (0,1)

> qqline(data, col = "steelblue", lwd = 2)

# The line above is in order to put a line for the theoretical distribution

The result is on the figure attached.

Part b

For this case as we can see on the figure attached the calculated quantiles are not far from the theorical quantiles given byt the straaigth blue line so then we can conclude that the distribution seems to be normal.

Find sin(u/2) if tan(u)=-7.721 and u is in quadrant 4
morpeh [17]

Answer:

.6601

Step-by-step explanation:

to find u, which we assume is an angle of course, we can take arctan of both sides.  so arctan(-7.721) = -1.4420.  this angle is in quadrant 4, but it is not in the range.  In this instance you just go around the circle again, or add 2pi, which gets us 4.8412.  You can check and you get the same answer if you take the tangent of either.

So now we have a number in the appropriate range  in the appropriate quadrant.  That means we have the correct angle.  The question asks what is sine of that angle cut in half.  so sin(4.8412/2), which gets you your answer.  let em know if something didn't make sense.

Haben knows that the angle of elevation from the top of a rock formation to a stake in the ground 50 feet from its base is 42°.
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The height of the rock formation is 45.02\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

tan(42\°)=h/50

solve for h

h=50*tan(42\°)=45.02\ ft
