Hello!

For every 1 blue marble there are 5 greens

You add the numbers in the ratio

1 + 5 = 6

Divide this number from the amount of marbles

60 / 6 = 10

Multiply the ratio by this

1 * 10 = 10

5 * 10 = 50

There are 10 blue marbles and 50 green ones

The answer is 10

Hope this helps!

You are a lifeguard and spot a drowning child 60 meters along the shore and 40 meters from the shore to the child. You run along
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The lifeguard should run across the shore a distance of 48.074 m before jumpng into the water in order to minimize the time to reach the child.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a problem of optimization.

We have to minimize the time it takes for the lifeguard to reach the child.

The time can be calculated by dividing the distance by the speed for each section.

The distance in the shore and in the water depends on when the lifeguard gets in the water. We use the variable x to model this, as seen in the picture attached.

Then, the distance in the shore is d_b=x and the distance swimming can be calculated using the Pithagorean theorem:

d_s^2=(60-x)^2+40^2=60^2-120x+x^2+40^2=x^2-120x+5200\\\\d_s=\sqrt{x^2-120x+5200}

Then, the time (speed divided by distance) is:

t=d_b/v_b+d_s/v_s\\\\t=x/4+\sqrt{x^2-120x+5200}/1.1

To optimize this function we have to derive and equal to zero:

\dfrac{dt}{dx}=\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{1.1}(\dfrac{1}{2})\dfrac{2x-120}{\sqrt{x^2-120x+5200}} \\\\\\\dfrac{dt}{dx}=\dfrac{1}{4} +\dfrac{1}{1.1} \dfrac{x-60}{\sqrt{x^2-120x+5200}} =0\\\\\\  \dfrac{x-60}{\sqrt{x^2-120x+5200}} =\dfrac{1.1}{4}=\dfrac{2}{7}\\\\\\ x-60=\dfrac{2}{7}\sqrt{x^2-120x+5200}\\\\\\(x-60)^2=\dfrac{2^2}{7^2}(x^2-120x+5200)\\\\\\(x-60)^2=\dfrac{4}{49}[(x-60)^2+40^2]\\\\\\(1-4/49)(x-60)^2=4*40^2/49=6400/49\\\\(45/49)(x-60)^2=6400/49\\\\45(x-60)^2=6400\\\\

x

As d_b=x, the lifeguard should run across the shore a distance of 48.074 m before jumpng into the water in order to minimize the time to reach the child.

One senior from the high schools will be selected at random. What is the probability that the senior selected will not be from h
DochEvi [55]

Using the probability concept, it is found that there is a 0.7361 = 73.61% probability that the senior selected will not be from high school b given that the senior responded with a choice other than college.

<h3>What is a probability? </h3>
  • A <em>probability </em>is given by the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes</u>.

Researching the problem on the internet, it is found that:

  • 538 seniors responded with a choice other than college.
  • Of those students, 99 + 83 + 49 + 31 + 63 + 71 = 396 are not from high school b.

Hence:

p = \frac{396}{538} = 0.7361

0.7361 = 73.61% probability that the senior selected will not be from high school b given that the senior responded with a choice other than college.

Silicon wafers are scored and then broken into the many small microchips that will he mounted into circuits. Two breaking method
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

a

The estimate is  - 0.0265\le  K \le  0.0465

b

Method B this is because the faulty breaks are less

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of microchips broken in method A is  n_1 = 400

The number of faulty breaks of method A is  X_1 = 32

 The number of microchips broken in method B is  n_2  = 400

 The number of faulty breaks of method A is  X_2 = 32

  The proportion of the faulty breaks to the total breaks in method A is

       p_1 = \frac{32}{400}

      p_1 = 0.08

 The proportion of the faulty to the total breaks in method B is

      p_2 =  \frac{28}{400}

     p_2 =  0.07

For this estimation the standard error is  

      SE =  \sqrt{ \frac{p_1 (1 - p_1)}{n_1}  + \frac{p_2 (1- p_2 )}{n_2} } }

  substituting values

       SE =  \sqrt{ \frac{0.08 (1 - 0.08)}{400}  + \frac{0.07 (1- 0.07 )}{400} } }

      SE = 0.0186

The z-values of confidence coefficient of 0.95 from the z-table is  

       z_{0.95} =  1.96

The difference between proportions of improperly broken microchips for the two breaking methods is mathematically represented as

        K = [p_1 - p_2 ] \pm z_{0.95} * SE

substituting values

        K = [0.08 - 0.07 ] \pm 1.96 *0.0186

         K  =  - 0.0265 \ or  \ K  =  0.0465

The interval of the difference between proportions of improperly broken microchips for the two breaking methods is  

      - 0.0265\le  K \le  0.0465
