Sofia's taco truck lets customers choose 3 ingredients from the list below to add to their tacos. How many groups of 3 different

DIA [1.3K]

Using the combination formula, and considering that the list has 6 ingredients, it is found that 20 groups of 3 different ingredients can go on a taco.

The order in which the ingredients are chosen is not important, hence, the <em>combination formula</em> is used to solve this question.

<h3>Combination formula: </h3>

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by:

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

In this problem, 3 ingredients are chosen from a set of 6, hence:

$C_{6,3} = \frac{6!}{3!3!} = 20$

20 groups of 3 different ingredients can go on a taco.

Suppose a local manufacturing company claims their production line has a variance of less than 9.0. A quality control engineer d

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

$\chi^2 =\frac{35-1}{9} 2.12^2 =16.979$

$p_v =P(\chi^2$

If we compare the p value and the significance level provided we see that $p_v$ so on this case we have enough evidence in order to reject the null hypothesis at the significance level provided. And that means that the population variance is significantly lower than 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Notation and previous concepts

A chi-square test is "used to test if the variance of a population is equal to a specified value. This test can be either a two-sided test or a one-sided test. The two-sided version tests against the alternative that the true variance is either less than or greater than the specified value"

$n=35$ represent the sample size

$\alpha=0.01$ represent the confidence level

$s =2.12$ represent the sample deviation obtained

$\sigma_0 =3$ represent the value that we want to test

Null and alternative hypothesis

On this case we want to check if the population variance specification is lower than 9 and the deviation lower than 3, so the system of hypothesis would be:

Null Hypothesis: $\sigma^2 \geq 9$

Alternative hypothesis: $\sigma^2$

Calculate the statistic

For this test we can use the following statistic:

$\chi^2 =\frac{n-1}{\sigma^2_0} s^2$

And this statistic is distributed chi square with n-1 degrees of freedom. We have eveything to replace.

$\chi^2 =\frac{35-1}{9} 2.12^2 =16.979$

Calculate the p value

In order to calculate the p value we need to have in count the degrees of freedom , on this case df= n-1= 35-1=34. And since is a left tailed test the p value would be given by:

$p_v =P(\chi^2$

In order to find the p value we can use the following code in excel:

"=CHISQ.DIST(16.979,34,TRUE)"

Conclusion

If we compare the p value and the significance level provided we see that $p_v$ so on this case we have enough evidence in order to reject the null hypothesis at the significance level provided. And that means that the population variance is significantly lower than 9

A fireman is heading towards a forest fire and needs to know how far away the fire is. The person in the fire tower can determin

hjlf

Answer: 3.82 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the shown figure, we can imagine the scene as a <u>right triangle</u>, where the tower is located at the right angle, and the fireman and the forest fire located at each of the other two vertices.

So, since we are dealing with a right triangle we can use the Pithagorean Theorem, in order to find the distance from the fireman to the fire $d$ , which is also the hypotenuse.

$d^{2}= (2.1 miles)^{2} +(3.2 miles)^{2}$

$d=\sqrt{(2.1 miles)^{2} +(3.2 miles)^{2}}$

Finally:

$d=3.82 miles$
