Bob uses 2/5 of a cup of vinegar in his salad dressing recipe. How much vinegar would Bob use to make 2 3/4 recipes?

1 answer:

4 0

Alls you would have to do in this real world problem is take the amount of vinegar it took to make 1 recipe, and multiply it by that of the new amount of recipes Bob wants to make.
2/5 * 2 3/4 = 2/5 * 11/4 = 1.1 Cups of vinegar

<u>QUESTION 1</u>

The given system of equation is

$y=x-6...eqn1$

and

$3x+2y=8...eqn2$

Let us substitute equation (1) into equation (2) to get,

$3x+2(x-6)=8$

We expand the bracket to get,

$3x+2x-12=8$

We simplify to get.

$5x-12=8$

We group like terms to get

$5x=8+12$

$\Rightarrow 5x=20$

$\Rightarrow x=4$

We now substitute $x=4$ in to equation (1) to obtain,

$y=4-6=-2$

The correct answer is option A.

<u>QUESTION 2</u>

The given system of equations is

$y-x=9...eqn1$

and

$10+2x=-2y...eqn2$

We make y the subject in equation (2) to get,

$y=-x-5..eqn3$

We put equation (3) into equation (1) to obtain,

$-x-5-x=9$

We group like terms to get,

$-x-x=9+5$

This implies that,

$-2x=14$

We divide through by $-2$ to get,

$x=-7$

Hence the x-coordinate is $-7$

<u>QUESTION 3</u>

The given system is

$y=3x-1..eqn1$

and

$x-y=-9...eqn2$

We make $x$ the subject in equation (2) to get,

$x=y-9...eqn3$

We put equation (3) into equation (1) to obtain,

$y=3(y-9)-1$

We expand the bracket to get,

$y=3y-27-1$

Group like terms to get,

$y-3y=-27-1$

We simplify to get;

$-2y=-28$

This implies that,

$y=14$

Therefore the y-coordinate is 14.

A lake contains 4 distinct types of fish. Suppose that each fish caught is equally likely to be any one of these types. Let Y de

gregori [183]

a= μ-3.16*σ , b= μ+3.16*σ if each fish caught is equally likely to be any one of these 4 distinct types.

<h3>What is meant by Chebyshev inequality?</h3>

Chebyshev's inequality is a probability theory that ensures that, over a vast range of probability distributions, no more than a particular proportion of values would be present within a selected limits or range as from mean. In other words, only a certain fish caught will be discovered within a given range of the distribution's mean.

The formula for which no more than a particular number of values can exceed is 1/K2; in other words, 1/K2 of a distribution's values can be more than or equal to K standard deviations away from the distribution's mean. Furthermore, it asserts that 1-(1/K2) of a distribution's values must be within, but not include, K standard deviations of the distribution's mean.

How to solve?

from Chebyshev's inequality for Y

P(| Y - μ|≤ k*σ ) ≥ 1-1/k²

where

Y = the number of fish that need be caught to obtain at least one of each type

μ = expected value of Y

σ = standard deviation of Y

P(| Y - μ|≤ k*σ ) = probability that Y is within k standard deviations from the mean

k= parameter

thus for

P(| Y - μ|≤ k*σ ) ≥ 1-1/k²

P{a≤Y≤b} ≥ 0.90 → 1-1/k² = 0.90 → k = 3.16

then

P(μ-k*σ≤ Y ≤ μ+k*σ ) ≥ 0.90

using one-sided Chebyshev inequality (Cantelli's inequality)

P(Y- μ≥ λ) ≥ 1- σ²/(σ²+λ²)

P{Y≥b} ≥ 0.90 → 1- σ²/(σ²+λ²)= 1- 1/(1+(λ/σ)²)=0.90 → 3= λ/σ → λ= 3*σ

then for

P(Y≥ μ+3*σ ) ≥ 0.90
