Which of the following is NOT equivalent to 240/300

Lyrx [107]

Two fractions are said to be equivalent if both the numerator and the numerator of one fraction can be obtained by multiplying or dividing the numerat.or and denominator of the other fraction by a single factor.

Dividing the numerator and denominator of 240/300 by 5 gives 48/60
Dividing the numerator and denominator of 240/300 by 60 gives 4/5
Dividing the numerator and denominator of 240/300 by 10 gives 24/30

Whereas dividing 300 by 2 gives 150 dividing 240 by 2 will not give 122. so 122/150 is not equivalent to 240/300.

Use proportion to find the whole 75 is 15% of what number

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

500

Step-by-step explanation:

15% * x = 75

(15/100) * x = 75 Multiply both sides by 100/15

(15/100)*(100/15) = 75 * 100/15

x = 7500/15

x = 500

Answer 500

Proportion

15/100 = 75 / x Cross multiply

15x = 100*75 Combine the right

15x = 7500 Divide 15

15x/15 = 7500/15

x = 500

Suppose brine containing 0.2 kg of salt per liter runs into a tank initially filled with 500 L of water containing 5 kg of salt.

Oliga [24]

Answer:

(a) 0.288 kg/liter

(b) 0.061408 kg/liter

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The mass of salt entering the tank per minute, x = 0.2 kg/L × 5 L/minute = 1 kg/minute

The mass of salt exiting the tank per minute = 5 × (5 + x)/500

The increase per minute, Δ/dt, in the mass of salt in the tank is given as follows;

Δ/dt = x - 5 × (5 + x)/500

The increase, in mass, Δ, after an increase in time, dt, is therefore;

Δ = (x - 5 × (5 + x)/500)·dt

Integrating with a graphing calculator, with limits 0, 10, gives;

Δ = (99·x - 5)/10

Substituting x = 1 gives

(99 × 1 - 5)/10 = 9.4 kg

The concentration of the salt and water in the tank after 10 minutes = (Initial mass of salt in the tank + Increase in the mass of the salt in the tank)/(Volume of the tank)

∴ The concentration of the salt and water in the tank after 10 minutes = (5 + 9.4)/500 = (14.4)/500 = 0.288

The concentration of the salt and water in the tank after 10 minutes = 0.288 kg/liter

(b) With the added leak, we now have;

Δ/dt = x - 6 × (14.4 + x)/500

Δ = x - 6 × (14.4 + x)/500·dt

Integrating with a graphing calculator, with limits 0, 20, gives;

Δ = 19.76·x -3.456 = 16.304

Where x = 1

The increase in mass after an increase in = 16.304 kg

The total mass = 16.304 + 14.4 = 30.704 kg

The concentration of the salt in the tank then becomes;

Concentration = 30.704/500 = 0.061408 kg/liter.

A population has a mean of 200 and a standard deviation of 50. Suppose a sample of size 100 is selected and x is used to estimat

zmey [24]

Answer:

a) 0.6426 = 64.26% probability that the sample mean will be within +/- 5 of the population mean.

b) 0.9544 = 95.44% probability that the sample mean will be within +/- 10 of the population mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .
