Susan Marciano invested part of her $37,000 bonus in a fund that paid a 12% profit and invested the rest in stock that suffered

Bad White [126]

Answer:

The amount invested in funds that earned 12% profit is 31000

The amount invested in stock that suffered 5% loss is 6,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount invested in funds that earned 12%.

Then the amount invested in stock that suffered 5% loss is 37000 - x.

The profit from investment in funds is = 12% of x

= 0.12·x

The loss from investment in stock is = 5% of (37000 - x)

= 0.05 × (37000 - x)

The net profit is 0.12·x - 0.05 × (37000 - x)

As the net profit given in the problem is $3420, we have :

0.12·x - 0.05 × (37000 - x) = 3420

Solving for x, we have :

12·x - 5 × (37000 - x) = 342000 (multiply both sides by 100)

12·x - 185000 + 5·x = 342000

17·x = 527000

⇒ x = 31000

Hence, The amount invested in funds that earned 12% profit is 31000 and the amount invested in stock that suffered 5% loss is 37000 - x = 37000 - 31000 = 6,000.

Find the coordinates of the fourth vertex that completes the construction of the rectangle on the coordinate plan

SOVA2 [1]

The coordinates of the fourth vertex are (2, -4).

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The opposite sides of a triangle are always equal.

First, we plot the three given points of the rectangle.

Assume the top left corner is A, the top right corner is B, the bottom left corner is C and the bottom right corner is D.

We need to determine the coordinates of point D.

Step 2:

The coordinates of the given three points are

A (-2, 5), B (2, 5), and C (-2, -4).

A and C are the same side i.e. the left side, they have the same x coordinate of -2.

So B and D will have the same x coordinate of 2.

A and B are on the same side too i.e. the top side so they both have the same y coordinate of 5.

The points C and D are two ends of the bottom side so they must have the same y coordinate of -4.

So the coordinates of the fourth vertex are (2, -4).

5. Average (missing value). The temperature at the top of Mt. Hood in Oregon was recorded for 5 straight days. For the first fou

Nata [24]

Answer:

5°F

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the average is obtained from;

Average = sum of scores / number of scores

Average temperature = 19.8°F

Let the temperature of the fifth day be x

Hence;

19.8 = 32 + 30 + 22 + 10 + x/5

19.8 = 94 + x/5

x= (5×19.8) -94

x= 5°F

An engineer is going to redesign an ejection seat for an airplane. The seat was designed for pilots weighing between 130 lb and

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

a) $P(140$

$P(0.036$

b) $P(140< \bar X$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

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".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Part a

Let X the random variable that represent the weights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(139,28.1)$

Where $\mu=139$ and $\sigma=28.1$

We are interested on this probability

$P(140$

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

$P(140$

And we can find this probability like this:

$P(0.036$

And in order to find these probabilities we can find tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.

$P(0.036$

Part b

For this case we select a sample size of n =32. Since the distribution for X is normal then the distribution for the sample mean $\bar X$ is given by:
