Question 7:

A square with sides x ft long has a perimeter of 34 1/2 ft. How long are the sides of the square

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

8.625 ft for each side.

Step-by-step explanation:

This one's pretty simple. It's a square, so all of its sides are the same length. It's perimeter is given as 34.5 ft, so all you have to do is divide 34.5 by 4 since squares have 4 sides. 34.5/4 is 8.625, which, rounding to the nearest 1/100th, is 8.63. Rounding to the nearest 1/10th it's 8.6, and rounding to the nearest 1th is 9 (although i doubt saying 1th is right, but just because).

Cuál es el menor número entero que, disminuido en 8, resulta menor que su triple

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number

Then 3x = its triple, and the condition is:

x - 8 < 3x

Subtract x from each side

-8 < 2x

Divide each side by 2

-4 < x

Reverse the inequality

x > -4

The smallest integer greater than -4 is -3.

Check:

-3 - 8 < 3(-3)

-11 < -9

It checks.

A seat on a Ferris wheel is level with the center of the wheel. The diameter of the wheel is 210 feet (ft). If the wheel

frutty [35]

Answer:

The change in the height of the seat of the Ferris wheel is a reduction in height of approximately 74.25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The position of the seat on the Ferris wheel = The center level of the wheel

The diameter of the Ferris wheel = 210 feet

The angle of rotation of the wheel = 45° counterclockwise

The height of a point on the Ferris wheel is given by the relation;

h = A·cos(b·x + c) + d

With regards to the question, we have;

h = The height of the seat of the Ferris wheel

A = The amplitude = 1/2 × The diameter of the wheel = 210/2 = 105 feet

360/b = The period

c = The phase shift = 90°

d = The mid line = 0

For a rotation of 45° counterclockwise or-45° clockwise, we have;

b·x = 45°, therefore;

h = 105 × cos(45° + 90°) + 0 = 105 × cos(135°) + 0

h = 105 × cos(135°) ≈ -74.25 feet

Therefore, the height of the seat of the Ferris wheel reduces by 74.246 feet.

In the United States, 35% of households own a 4K television. Suppose we take a random sample of 150 households. (a) Describe the

sattari [20]

Answer:

(a) The distribution of the sample proportion is Normal distribution.

(b) The probability that in this sample of 150 households that more than 50% own a 4K television is 0.00012.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that in the United States, 35% of households own a 4K television.

Suppose we take a random sample of 150 households.

Let $\hat p$ = sample proportion of households who own a 4K television.

The z-score probability distribution for sample proportion is given by;

Z = $\frac{ \hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p$ = sample proportion

p = population proportion of households own a 4K television = 35%

n = sample of households = 150

(a) The distribution of the sample proportion is related to the Normal distribution.

(b) Probability that in this sample of 150 households more than 50% own a 4K television is given by = P( $\hat p$ > 0.50)

P( $\hat p$ > 0.50) = P( $\frac{ \hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ > $\frac{ 0.50-0.35}{\sqrt{\frac{0.50(1-0.50)}{150} } }$ ) = P(Z > 3.67) = 1 - P(Z $\leq$ 3.67)

= 1 - 0.99988 = 0.00012

Now, in the z table the P(Z $\leq$ x) or P(Z < x) is given. So, the above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 3.67 in the z table which has an area of 0.99988.

Therefore, probability that in this sample of 150 households more than 50% own a 4K television is 0.00012.
