Complete question :

Kaitlin has been given a list of 5 bands and asked to place a vote. Her vote must have the names of her favorite and second favorite bands from the list. How many different votes are possible?

Answer:

20 different votes

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of bands = 5

To select her favorite ; she chooses 1 from the five ;

Number of bands left = 4

From. The 4 she chooses one ; which is her second favorite

Number of different votes possible :

Favorite selection * second favorite selection

(5 * 4) = 20 different votes.

Two lighthouses are located 75 miles from one another on a north-south line. If a boat is spotted S 40o E from the northern ligh

yuradex [85]

Answer:

The northern lighthouse is approximately $24.4\; \rm mi$ closer to the boat than the southern lighthouse.

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to the diagram attached. Denote the northern lighthouse as $\rm N$ , the southern lighthouse as $\rm S$ , and the boat as $\rm B$ . These three points would form a triangle.

It is given that two of the angles of this triangle measure $40^{\circ}$ (northern lighthouse, $\angle {\rm N}$ ) and $21^{\circ}$ (southern lighthouse $\angle {\rm S}$ ), respectively. The three angles of any triangle add up to $180^{\circ}$ . Therefore, the third angle of this triangle would measure $180^{\circ} - (40^{\circ} + 21^{\circ}) = 119^{\circ}$ (boat $\angle {\rm B}$ .)

It is also given that the length between the two lighthouses (length of $\rm NS$ ) is $75\; \rm mi$ .

By the law of sine, the length of a side in a given triangle would be proportional to the angle opposite to that side. For example, in the triangle in this question, $\angle {\rm B}$ is opposite to side $\rm NS$ , whereas $\angle {\rm S}$ is opposite to side ${\rm NB}$ . Therefore:

$\begin{aligned} \frac{\text{length of NS}}{\sin(\angle {\rm B})} = \frac{\text{length of NB}}{\sin(\angle {\rm S})} \end{aligned}$ .

Substitute in the known measurements:

$\begin{aligned} \frac{75\; \rm mi}{\sin(119^{\circ})} = \frac{\text{length of NB}}{\sin(21^{\circ})} \end{aligned}$ .

Rearrange and solve for the length of $\rm NB$ :

$\begin{aligned} & \text{length of NB} \\ =\; & (75\; \rm mi) \times \frac{\sin(21^{\circ})}{\sin(119^{\circ})} \\ \approx\; & 30.73\; \rm mi\end{aligned}$ .

(Round to at least one more decimal places than the values in the choices.)

Likewise, with $\angle {\rm N}$ is opposite to side ${\rm SB}$ , the following would also hold:

$\begin{aligned} \frac{\text{length of NS}}{\sin(\angle {\rm B})} = \frac{\text{length of SB}}{\sin(\angle {\rm N})} \end{aligned}$ .

$\begin{aligned} \frac{75\; \rm mi}{\sin(119^{\circ})} = \frac{\text{length of SB}}{\sin(40^{\circ})} \end{aligned}$ .

$\begin{aligned} & \text{length of SB} \\ =\; & (75\; \rm mi) \times \frac{\sin(40^{\circ})}{\sin(119^{\circ})} \\ \approx\; & 55.12\; \rm mi\end{aligned}$ .

In other words, the distance between the northern lighthouse and the boat is approximately $30.73\; \rm mi$ , whereas the distance between the southern lighthouse and the boat is approximately $55.12\; \rm mi$ . Hence the conclusion.

Sedbober [7]

Using the normal distribution, it is found that:

1. His z-score was of Z = -1.88.

2. There is a 0.0301 = 3.01% probability that a randomly selected person has a smaller E/A ratio than the patient in question 1.

3. Z-score of z = 1.85, there is a 0.0322 = 3.22% probability that a randomly selected patient has a higher E/A ratio.

4. Due to the higher absolute value of the z-score, the first patient had a more extraordinary result.

<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>

In a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

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

It 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, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem:

The mean is of $\mu = 1.35$ .

The standard deviation is of $\sigma = 0.33$ .

Item 1:

Considering his ratio, we have that X = 0.73, hence:

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

$Z = \frac{0.73 - 1.35}{0.33}$

$Z = -1.88$

His z-score was of Z = -1.88.

Item 2:

The probability is the <u>p-value of Z = -1.88</u>, hence, there is a 0.0301 = 3.01% probability that a randomly selected person has a smaller E/A ratio than the patient in question 1.

Item 3:

Score of X = 1.96, hence:

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

$Z = \frac{1.96 - 1.35}{0.33}$

$Z = 1.85$

The probability is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z = 1.85, hence, 1 - 0.9678 = 0.0322 = 3.22% probability that a randomly selected patient has a higher E/A ratio.

Item 4:

Due to the higher absolute value of the z-score, the first patient had a more extraordinary result.

Val needs to find the area enclosed by the figure. The figure is made by attaching semicircles to each side of a 42-m-42-m squar

oee [108]

The area enclosed by the figure is 4533.48 square meters.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Side length of the square = 42m

The semicircle is attached to each side of the square. So the diameter of the semicircle is the length of the square.

Radius of the semicircle = 21m

Area of the square = 42 x 42 = 1764 square meters

Area of 1 semicircle = π(21 x 21) /2

= (3.14) (441) /2

= 1384.74/2

= 692.37 square meters

Area of 4 semicircle = 4 x 692.37

= 2769.48 square meters

Total area = 1764 + 2769.48

= 4533.48 square meters

The area enclosed by the figure is 4533.48 square meters.

The table below shows the typical hours worked by employees at a company. A salaried employee makes $78,000 per year. Hourly emp

uranmaximum [27]

We will recommend option C which is Salaried pay. Salaried employees make more per week than hourly employees.

<h3>How do you find out the best salary option?</h3>

Given that, Salary per year = $78,000.

Hourly employees get paid $26 per hour, but get $39 per hour for each hour over 40 hours.

The total number of working hours from Sunday to Saturday is 47.

The payment for 47 hours of work per week will be given below.

Salary per week = $40 \times 26 + 7 \times 39$

Salary per week = $1313

We know that there are 52 weeks in one year. So the salary for one year is given below.

Salary per year = $1313\times 52$

Salary per year = $68276

We can see that we calculate the yearly salary with per hour rate, the amount will be lower than the salary per year $78000.

Hence we will recommend option C which is Salaried pay. Salaried employees make more per week than hourly employees.
