The ratio of the measure of two supplementary angles is 15:21. What is the measure of the smallest angle?

Mathematics
1 answer:
anyanavicka [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

75

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of two supplementary angles =  15:21

The angles are  15x , 21x

15x + 21x = 180       {Supplementary}

         36x = 180

             x = 180/36

             x = 5

Smallest angle = 15 * 5 = 75

An electronics store makes a profit of $72.00 for every television sold and $90.00 for every computer sold. The manager’s target
viktelen [127]

Answer:

<h2>Option A, C and D is the three possible solution.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Each Television earns $72 and each Computer earns $90.

The manager’s target is to make at least $360.00 a day.

It is <u>not clarified the exact number of Televisions and Computers</u>.

Hence, as per the given condition, 72x + 90y \geq  360\\8x + 10y \geq  40\\4x + 5y \geq  20.

Now we just need to check the given options, whether they satisfy the above equation, or not.

Except the option B, each inequality indicates a value greater than 360.

Hence, option B can not be the possible solution.

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

1) n=114

2) n=59

3) On this case no, because if we survey just the adults of the nearest college that would be a convenience sample. And when we use "convenience sample" we have some problems associated to bias. This methodology it's not appropiate in order to have a good estimation of the parameter of interest. It's better use a random, cluster or stratified sampling.

Step-by-step explanation:

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".  

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.  

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 population proportion have the following distribution

p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}})

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 80% of confidence, our significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.80=0.2 and \alpha/2 =0.1. And the critical value would be given by:

z_{\alpha/2}=-1.28, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.28

Part 1

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:  

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}    (a)  

And on this case we have that ME =\pm 0.06 or 6% points, and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:  

n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}   (b)  

Since we don't have a prior estimate of \het p we can use 0.5 as a good estimate, replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.06}{1.28})^2}=113.77  

And rounded up we have that n=114

Part 2

On this case we have a prior estimate for the population proportion and is \hat p =0.85 so replacing the values into equation (b) we got:

n=\frac{0.85(1-0.85)}{(\frac{0.06}{1.28})^2}=58.027

And rounded up we have that n=59

Part 3

On this case no, because if we survey just the adults of the nearest college that would be a convenience sample. And when we use "convenience sample" we have some problems associated to bias. This methodology it's not appropiate in order to have a good estimation of the parameter of interest. It's better use a random, cluster or stratified sampling.

Use lagrange multipliers to find the maximum volume of a rectangular box that is inscribed in a sphere of radius r
vesna_86 [32]

For the derivative tests method, assume that the sphere is centered at the origin, and consider the circular projection of the sphere onto the xy-plane. An inscribed rectangular box is uniquely determined

1

by the xy-coordinate of its corner in the first octant, so we can compute the z coordinate of this corner by

x2+y2+z2=r2 =⇒z= r2−(x2+y2). Then the volume of a box with this coordinate for the corner is given by

V = (2x)(2y)(2z) = 8xy r2 − (x2 + y2),

and we need only maximize this on the domain x2 + y2 ≤ r2. Notice that the volume is zero on the boundary of this domain, so we need only consider critical points contained inside the domain in order to carry this optimization out.

For the method of Lagrange multipliers, we optimize V(x,y,z) = 8xyz subject to the constraint x2 + y2 + z2 = r2<span>. </span>
