Solve the equation 0.35(x+4)=0.25(x-6)

1 answer:

5 0

x = -29

because
0.35x +1.4=0.25x-1.5
-0.25x -0.25x
_____________________
0.1x + 1.4 = -1.5
-1.4 -1.4
_________________________
0.1x =-2.9
____ _____
0.1 0.1
x = -29

Suppose the waiting times in an emergency room are normally distributed with a mean (mean) of 40 and a standard deviation (sigma

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

0.68269

Step-by-step explanation:

When we are to find the z score for population where a random sample is picked, the z.score formula we use is

z = (x-μ)/Standard error, where

x is the raw score,

μ is the population mean

Standard error = σ/√n

σ is the population standard deviation

n = random number of samples

For : x = 38 minutes, μ = 40, σ = 10, n = 5

z = 38 - 40/10 /√25

= -2/10/5

= -2/2

= -1

Determining the probability value using z table

P(x = 38) = P(z = -1)

= 0.15866

For : x = 42 minutes, μ = 40, σ = 10, n = 25

z = 42 - 40/10 /√25

= 2/10/5

= 2/2

= 1

Determining the probability value using z table

P(x = 42) = P(z = 1)

= 0.84134

The probability that their average waiting time will be between 38 and 42 minutes is calculated as

P(-Z<x<Z)

= P(-1 < x < 1)

= P(z = 1) - P(z = -1)

= 0.84134 - 0.15866

= 0.68269

Therefore, the probability that their average waiting time will be between 38 and 42 minutes is 0.68269

Find, correct to four decimal places, the length of the curve of intersection of the cylinder 16x2 + y2 = 16 and the plane x + y

Yuri [45]

Let the curve C be the intersection of the cylinder

$16x^2+y^2=16$

and the plane

$x+y+z=1$

The projection of C on to the x-y plane is the ellipse

$16x^2+y^2=16$

To see clearly that this is an ellipse, le us divide through by 16, to get

$\frac{x^2}{1}+ \frac{y^2}{16}=1$

$\frac{x^2}{1^2}+ \frac{y^2}{4^2}=1$ ,

We can write the following parametric equations,

$x=cos(t), y=4sin(t)$

for

$0\le t \le 2\pi$

Since C lies on the plane,

$x+y+z=1$

it must satisfy its equation.

Let us make z the subject first,

$z=1-x-y$

This implies that,

$z=1-sin(t)-4cos(t)$

We can now write the vector equation of C, to obtain,

$r(t)=(cos(t),4sin(t),1-cos(t)-4sin(t))$

The length of the curve of the intersection of the cylinder and the plane is now given by,

$\int\limits^{2\pi}_0 {|r'(t)|} \, dt$

But

$r'(t)=(-sin(t),4cos(t),sin(t)-4cos(t))$

$|r'(t)|=\sqrt{(-sin(t))^2+(4cos(t))^2+(sin(t)-4cos(t))}$

$\int\limits^{2\pi}_0 {\sqrt{2sin^2(t)+32cos(t)-8sin(t)cos(t)} }\, dt=24.08778184$

Therefore the length of the curve of the intersection intersection of the cylinder and the plane is 24.0878 units correct to four decimal places.

Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

6lb meat

2.5lb potatoes

5Ib carrots

Step-by-step explanation:

M + P + C = 13.5

6M + 3P + C = 48.50

OM + 2P - C = O

2P = C

Therefore, there are 6 pounds of meat, 2.5 pounds of potatoes, and 5 pounds of carrots.
