Answer:

$The~expression=7(\frac{5}{3})^{(1-1)}+ 7(\frac{5}{3})^{(2-1)}+7(\frac{5}{3})^{(3-1)}+7(\frac{5}{3})^{(4-1)}+7(\frac{5}{3})^{(5-1)}\\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=7(\frac{5}{3})^0+7(\frac{5}{3})^1+7(\frac{5}{3})^2+7(\frac{5}{3})^3+7(\frac{5}{3})^4\\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=7(1)+\frac{35}{3}+7(\frac{25}{9})+7(\frac{125}{27}) +7(\frac{625}{81})\\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~=7+\frac{35}{3}+\frac{175}{9}+\frac{875}{27} +\frac{4375}{81} \\$

$=\frac{7(81)}{81}+\frac{35(27)}{3(27)} +\frac{175(9)}{9(9)} +\frac{875(3)}{27(3)}+\frac{4375}{81}\\=\frac{7(81)+35(27)+175(9)+875(3)+4375}{81}\\=\frac{10087}{81}\\=124.53086~(approximate)$

I need help with #8. I need to use the quadratic formula. I have a calculator that is programmed for the quadratic formula so al

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Extend line AB so that it intersects ray CE at point G. Then angles BGC and BAD are "alternate interior angles", hence congruent.

The angle at B is exterior to triangle BCG, and is equal to the sum of the interior angles at C and G:

138 = (376 -23x) +(x^2 -8x)

Subtracting 138 and collecting terms we have ...

x^2 -31x +238 = 0

For your calculator, a=1, b=-31, c=238.

<em>Additional comment</em>

You will find that the solutions to this are x = {14, 17}. You will also find that angle BCE will have corresponding values of 54° and -15°. That is, the solution x=17 is "extraneous." It is a solution to the equation, but not to the problem.

For x=14, the marked angles are A = 84°, C = 54°.

Anna, Beth and Colleen are softball players. This season, Anne had 65 base hits in 160 at-bats. Beth batting average was 0.399,

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Anne is the best hitter as she has the best hitting average of 0.406

Step-by-step explanation:

Anne hits 65 bases out of 160 at - bats.

Beth's betting average = 0.399

Collin's hit = 40%

Now, we need to convert all the three hitting rates into same parameters to compare them with each other.

Average hit rate of Anne = $\frac{\textrm{Total numberof base}}{\textrm{Total number of at - bats}}$

$= \frac{65}{160} = 0.406$

⇒The betting average of Anne = 0.406

Now, The hit - rate of Collin = 40%

Converting the percentage rate into decimal, we get the hit rate of Collin

= $\frac{40}{100} = 0.40$

Hence, we get that Hitting Average of :

<u>Anne = 0.406</u>, Beth = 0.3999 and Collin = 0.400

Hence, from the above data Anne is the best hitter as she has the best hitting average of 0.406.

(CO6) From a random sample of 68 businesses, it is found that the mean time that employees spend on personal issues each week is

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

(1) (4.82, 4.98)

(2) Large sample size

(3) Yes, the temperature is within the confidence interval of (37.40, 37.60)

(4) (15.083, 15.117)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval (CI) = mean + or - (t×sd)/√n

(1) mean = 4.9, sd = 0.35, n = 68, degree of freedom = n-1 = 68 - 1 = 67

t-value corresponding to 67 degrees of freedom and 95% confidence level is 1.9958

CI = 4.9 + (1.9958×0.35)/√68 = 4.98

CI = 4.9 - (1.9958×0.35)/√68 = 4.82

CI is (4.82, 4.98)

(2) Error margin = (t-value × standard deviation)/√sample size

From the formula above, error margin varies inversely as the square root of the sample size. Since the relationship between the error margin and sample size is inverse, increase in one (sample size) will conversely lead to a decrease in the other (error margin)

(3) mean = 37.5, sd = 0.6, n= 100, degree of freedom = n-1 = 100-1 = 99

t-value corresponding to 99 degrees of freedom and 90% confidence level is 1.6602

CI = 37.5 + (1.6602×0.6)/√100 = 37.5 + 0.10 = 37.60

CI = 37.5 - (1.6602×0.6)/√100 = 37.5 - 0.10 = 37.40

37.53 is within the confidence interval (37.40, 37.60)

(4) mean = 15.10, sd =0.08, n = 104, degree of freedom = n-1 = 104-1 = 103

t-value corresponding to 103 degrees of freedom and 97% confidence interval is 2.2006

CI = 15.10 + (2.2006×0.08)/√104 = 15.10 + 0.017 = 15.117

CI = 15.10 - (2.2006×0.08)/√104 = 15.10 - 0.017 = 15.083

CI is (15.083, 15.117)

From a barrel of colored marbles, you randomly select 1 blue, 2 yellow, 7 red, 6 green, and 2 purple marbles. Find the experimen

dybincka [34]

Answer:

8/9

Step-by-step explanation:

1 blue, 2 yellow, 7 red, 6 green, and 2 purple marbles = 18 marbles

The number that are not yellow = total - yellow

P( not yellow) = number that are not yellow / total

= (18-2) / 18

= 16/18
