Answer: Final price of the coffee table is $98.9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price of a coffee table = $115

Discount on a coffee table = 20%

So, After discount, it becomes,

\text{ Price}=\frac{100-20}{100}\times 115\\\\\text{ Price}=\frac{80}{100}\times 115\\\\\text{ Price}=0.8\times 115\\\\\text{ Price}=\$92

Rate of sales tax = 7.5%

So, after tax the price becomes,

\text{ Price}=\frac{100+7.5}{100}\times 92\\\\\text{ Price}=\frac{107.5}{100}\times 92\\\\\text{ Price}=\$98.9

Hence, final price of the coffee table is $98.9.

Distance between two ships At noon, ship A was 12 nautical miles due north of ship B. Ship A was sailing south at 12 knots (naut
frozen [14]

Answer:

a)\sqrt{144-288t+208t^2} b.) -12knots, 8 knots c) No e)4\sqrt{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the initial distance between ships A and B was 12 nautical miles. Ship A moves at 12 knots(nautical miles per hour) south. Ship B moves at 8 knots east.

a)

We know that at time t , the ship A has moved 12\dot t (n.m) and ship B has moved 8\dot t (n.m). We also know that the ship A moves closer to the line of the movement of B and that ship B moves further on its line.

Using Pythagorean theorem, we can write the distance s as:

\sqrt{(12-12\dot t)^2 + (8\dot t)^2}\\s=\sqrt{144-288t+144t^2+64t^2}\\s=\sqrt{144-288t+208t^2}

b)

We want to find \frac{ds}{dt} for t=0 and t=1

\sqrt{144-288t+208t^2}|\frac{d}{dt}\\\\\frac{ds}{dt}=\frac{1}{2\sqrt{144-288t+208t^2}}\dot (-288+416t)\\\\\frac{ds}{dt}=\frac{208t-144}{\sqrt{144-288t+208t^2}}\\\\\frac{ds}{dt}(0)=\frac{208\dot 0-144}{\sqrt{144-288\dot 0 + 209\dot 0^2}}=-12knots\\\\\frac{ds}{dt}(1)=\frac{208\dot 1-144}{\sqrt{144-288\dot 1 + 209\dot 1^2}}=8knots

c)

We know that the visibility was 5n.m. We want to see whether the distance s was under 5 miles at any point.

Ships have seen each other = s\leq 5\\\\\sqrt{144-288t+208t^2}\leq 5\\\\144-288t+208t^2\leq 25\\\\199-288t+208t^2\leq 0

Since function f(x)=199-288x+208x^2 is quadratic, concave up and has no real roots, we know that 199-288x+208x^2>0 for every t. So, the ships haven't seen each other.

d)

Attachedis the graph of s(red) and ds/dt(blue). We can see that our results from parts b and c were correct.

e)

Function ds/dt has a horizontal asympote in the first quadrant if

                                                \lim_{t \to \infty} \frac{ds}{dt}

So, lets check this limit:

\lim_{t \to \infty} \frac{ds}{dt}=\lim_{t \to \infty} \frac{208t-144}{\sqrt{144-288t+208t^2}}\\\\=\lim_{t \to \infty} \frac{208-\frac{144}{t}}{\sqrt{\frac{144}{t^2}-\frac{288}{t}+208}}\\\\=\frac{208-0}{\sqrt{0-0+208}}\\\\=\frac{208}{\sqrt{208}}\\\\=4\sqrt{13}

Notice that:

4\sqrt{13}=\sqrt{12^2+5^2}=√(speed of ship A² + speed of ship B²)

A polymer is manufactured in a batch chemical process. Viscosity measurements show that it is approximately normally distributed
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer: (751.05, 766.95)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

\overline{x}\pm z*\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}},

where \sigma =population standard deviation.

\overline{x}= sample mean

n= sample size

z* = Two-tailed critical z-value.

Given :  \sigma= 20

n= 42

\overline{x}=759

We know that from z-table , the two-tailed critical value for 99% confidence interval : z* =2.576

Now, the 99% confidence interval around the true population mean viscosity :-

759\pm (2.5760)\dfrac{20}{\sqrt{42}}\\\\=759\pm (2.5760)(3.086067)\\\\=759\pm7.9497=(759-7.9497,\ 759+7.9497)\]\\=(751.0503,\ 766.9497)\approx(751.05,\ 766.95)

∴ A 99% confidence interval around the true population mean viscosity : (751.05, 766.95)
