If marching bands vary from 21 to 49 player, which numbers of players can be arranged in the greatest number of rectangles?

1 answer:

5 0

Hmm. a rectangle?ok then, least number of rectangles needed-6.
. . .
. . . ( rectangle)
so, 6 x 8=48(greatest multiple of 6 from between 21 and 49)
48 players are most, so 8 rectangles

In a bolt-manufacturing factory, it is estimated that 6% of the bolts being manufactured will be defective, with a 3% margin of

Lynna [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A margin of error provides information on the percentage points ones results will differ from the real value.

If margin of error is 3% and estimated value is 6%, it means that the confidence interval would be within ±3 of the estimated value.

So, the confidence interval would be between 3% (6% - 3%) and 9% (6% + 3%)

You get GPS units from two manufacturers, A and B. You get 43% of your units from A and 57% of your units from B. In the past, 2

defon

Answer:

0.5015 = 50.15% probability that it came from manufacturer A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}$

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

$P(A \cap B)$ is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Defective

Event B: From manufacturer A.

Probability a unit is defective:

2% of 43%(from manufacturer A)

1.5% of 57%(from manufacturer B). So

$P(A) = 0.02*0.43 + 0.015*0.57 = 0.01715$

Probability a unit is defective and from manufacturer A:

2% of 43%. So

$P(A \cap B) = 0.02*0.43 = 0.0086$

What is the probability that it came from manufacturer A?

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.0086}{0.01715} = 0.5015$

0.5015 = 50.15% probability that it came from manufacturer A.

What is the vertex of the absolute value function defined by ƒ(x) = |x + 2| + 4?

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

C. (-2,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a function $f(x)=|x+2|+4$ and we are asked to find the vertex of our absolute value function.

The rules for the translation of a function are as follows:

$f|x-h|=\text{Graph shifted to right by h units}$

$f|x+h|=\text{ Graph shifted to left by h units}$

$f|x|+h=\text{ Graph shifted upward by h units}$

$f|x|-h=\text{ Graph shifted down by h units}$

Upon comparing our absolute function with above transformations we can see that our function is shifted to two units right of the origin(0,0) so x coordinate of our absolute function will be -2.

Our function is shifted upward from origin by 4 units, therefore, y-coordinate of our absolute value function will be 4.

$f(x)=|x--2|+4$
