Answer:

w-2u-v

Step-by-step explanation:

Given are three vectors u, v and w.

In R^2 we treat first element as x coordinate and 2nd element as y coordinate.

Thus we mark (1,2) in the I quadrant, (-3,4) in II quadrant and (5,0) on positive x axis 5 units form the origin.

b) $w=au+bv$

We have to find the values of a and b

$(5,0) = a(1,2)+b(-3,4)$ ]

Equate the corresponding terms

$5=a-3b\\0=2a+4b$

Divide II equation by 2 to get

$0=a+2b$

Eliminate a

-5 = 5b: b=-1

a=-2

Hence

w = 2u-v

Public opinion in the large city of Bedrock is that 60 percent of the residents are in favor of increasing taxes to fund alterna

uysha [10]

Answer: 0.8461

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the proportion of residents are against the increase of taxes to fund alternatives to drug addiction treatment.

As per given , we have p=0.40

A random sample is taken with size : n= 400

Expecting sample proportion : $\hat{p}=\dfrac{150}{400}=0.375$

Now , the probability that more than 150 of the residents surveyed will be against increasing taxes if a random sample of 400 residents are surveyed will be :

$P(p>0.375)=P(\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}>\dfrac{0.375-0.40}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.40(0.60)}{400}}})$

$=P(z>\dfrac{0.375-0.40}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.40(0.60)}{400}}})\ \ [\because\ z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}]$

$=P(z>-1.02)=P(z-z)=P(Z$

$\approx0.8461$ [By z-table]

Hence, the approximate probability that more than 150 of the residents surveyed will be against increasing taxes if a random sample of 400 residents are surveyed is 0.8461 .

Answer:

They would meet each other at $01 : 24$ PM.

Step-by-step explanation:

Erik took a trip to see his friend Mike who lives 308 miles away.

He left his place at 10 AM driving at 70 mph.

In 2 hours, his friend Mike left his place driving towards Erik at an average speed of 50 mph.

As Erik left his house at 10 AM driving at 70 mph and in 2 hours, his friend Mike left his place driving towards Erik at an average speed of 50 mph. It means

Erik left his place at 12:00 PM noon.

so, at 12:00 PM Erik had already traveled:

$2\times 70=140\:\:miles$

Miles left $=308-140=168\:\:miles$

Let 't' be the time when they meet

$70t\:+\:50t\:=168$

$120t=168$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}120$

$\frac{120t}{120}=\frac{168}{120}$

$t=\frac{7}{5}$

$t=\frac{7}{5}=1.4\:\:hours$

or $1$ hour and $24$ minutes after $12:00$ noon

i.e.

$12\:+\:1.4\:=1\:O'clock\:+\:24\:minutes$

Therefore, they would meet each other at $01 : 24$ PM.

A container has 1 pink block and 3 green blocks. Juan wants to make the probability of randomly selecting a black block equal to

alex41 [277]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

He should add 4 black blocks because there are a total of 4 other blocks, and in order to have a probability of 50%, the number of black blocks needs to be equal to the total number of the other colored blocks.
