Write a system of equations to describe the situation below, solve using substitution, and fill in the blanks. Craig's Bakery re

cently spent a total of $311 on new equipment, and their average hourly operating costs are $9. Their average hourly receipts are $10. The bakery will soon make back the amount it invested in equipment. How many hours will that take? What would the total expenses and receipts both equal?

Answer:

a. 311 hours

b. i. $3,100 in receipts

ii. $2,799 in expenses.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The company is making $10 per hour and spending $9 an hour. Their profit is therefore:

= 10 - 9

= $1 per hour

Since they spent $311 on the new equipment, the amount of time it would take for them to make this back is:

= 311 / 1

= 311 hours

b. In 311 hours, the total receipts would be:

= 311 * 10

= $3,110

The expenses would be:

= 311 * 9

= $2,799

In a random sample of students who took the SAT test, 427 had paid for coaching courses and the remaining 2733 had not. Calculat

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of students who get coaching on the SAT is (0.1232, 0.147).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of $\pi$ , and a confidence level of $1-\alpha$ , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

$\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}$

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of $1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}$ .

427 had paid for coaching courses and the remaining 2733 had not.

This means that $n = 427 + 2733 = 3160, \pi = \frac{427}{3160} = 0.1351$

95% confidence level

So $\alpha = 0.05$ , z is the value of Z that has a p-value of $1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975$ , so $Z = 1.96$ .

The lower limit of this interval is:

$\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.1351 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.1351*0.8649}{3160}} = 0.1232$

The upper limit of this interval is:

$\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.1351 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.1351*0.8649}{3160}} = 0.147$

The 95% confidence interval for the proportion of students who get coaching on the SAT is (0.1232, 0.147).

The polar coordinates of a point are 3π 4 and 7.00 m. What are its Cartesian coordinates (in m)? (x, y) = 6.06,−3.5 m

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

a) $\left(x,y\right)=\left(4.95,-4.95\right)$

b) $r\angle\theta = 7\angle0.5236\,\text{radians}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Polar coordinates are represented as: $r\angle\theta$ , where 'r' is the length (or magnitude) of the line, and ' $\theta$ ' is the angle measured from the positive x-axis.

in our case:

$7\angle\dfrac{3\pi}{4}$

to covert the polar to cartesian:

$x = r\cos{\theta}$

$y = r\sin{\theta}$

we can plug in our values:

$x = 7\cos{\dfrac{3\pi}{4}} = -7\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$

$y = 7\sin{\dfrac{3\pi}{4}} = 7\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$

the Cartesian coordinates are:

$\left(x,y\right)=\left(-7\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2},7\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right)$

$\left(x,y\right)=\left(4.95,-4.95\right)$

(b) to convert (x,y) = (6.06,-3.5)

we'll use the pythagoras theorem to find 'r'

$r^2 = x^2+y^2$

$r^2 = (6.06)^2+(-3.5)^2$

$r = \sqrt{48.97} \approx 7$

the angle can be found by:

$\tan{\theta} = \dfrac{y}{x}$

$\tan{\theta} = \dfrac{3.5}{6.06}$

$\theta = \arctan{left(\dfrac{3.5}{6.06}\right)}$

$\theta = 0.5236 \text{radians}$

to convert radians to degrees:

$\theta = 0.5236 \times \dfrac{180}{\pi} \approx 30^\circ$

writing in polar coordinates:

$r\angle\theta = 7\angle30^\circ\,\,\text{OR}\,\,7\angle0.5236\,\text{radians}$
