How can you use problem-solving strategies in solving personal, professional, and mathematical problems? Explain in 5-7 sentences and I will mark you the brainliest.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Problem-solving strategies are created as ways of making a problem easier to understand and this leads to it being easier to solve. For example, one strategy is known as compartmentalizing. This involves splitting a problem into various smaller problems. It makes solving these smaller problems easier and less stressful, and once the smaller problems are solved the bigger one is automatically solved as well. Such a strategy can be applied to any problem in any category including math.

The ratio of winners to losers was 7 to 5. If the total number of winners and losers was 1260, how many more winners were there than losers?​

Answers

Answer:

210

Step-by-step explanation:

7:5

First add the ratios

7+5=12

Put each ratio over the denominator 12 then multiply each by the total

7/12×1260= 735

5/12 × 1260 = 525

You are told that a random sample of 150 people from Manchester New Hampshire have been given cholesterol tests, and 60 of these people had levels over the "safe" count of 200. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of people in New Hampshire with cholesterol levels over 200.

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of people in New Hampshire with cholesterol levels over 200 is (0.3216, 0.4784).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

You are told that a random sample of 150 people from Manchester New Hampshire have been given cholesterol tests, and 60 of these people had levels over the "safe" count of 200.

This means that [tex]n = 150, \pi = \frac{60}{150} = 0.4[/tex]

95% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.4*0.6}{150}} = 0.3216[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.4 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.4*0.6}{150}} = 0.4784[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of people in New Hampshire with cholesterol levels over 200 is (0.3216, 0.4784).

Raw scores on behavioral tests are often transformed for easier comparison. A test of reading ability has mean 67 and standard deviation 10 when given to third graders.

Answers

Answer:

a.) a = -34 and b = 2

b.) a = -91.11 b = 2.22

c.) David scored 124, nancy scored 84.27

David scored higher

Step-by-step explanation:

for those in the 3rd grade

mean u = 67

s = 10

we used the z formula

[tex]z=\frac{x-u}{s}[/tex]

[tex]z=\frac{x-67}{10}[/tex]

we have the new score

u = 100

s = 20

we use this formula [tex]z*s+u[/tex]

[tex][\frac{x-67}{10} ]20\\[/tex] + 100

multiply through by 20

[tex][\frac{20x-1340}{10} ] +100[/tex]

dividing the bracket by 10

= [tex]2x-134+100[/tex]

= [tex]2x-34[/tex]

from this solution above,

a = -34 and b = 2

b.)

we solve for those in the 6th grade

u = 86

s = 9

[tex]\frac{x-86}{9}[/tex]

for new score,

y = 100

s = 20

[tex][\frac{x-86}{9} ]20+100[/tex]

[tex]2.22x-191.11+100\\= 2.22x - 91.11[/tex]

from this solution

a = -91.11

b = 2.22

c.) if David scored 79

[tex]= 2(x)-34[/tex]

= 2(79) - 34

= 158 - 34

= 124

if nancy scored 79

= 2.22(79) - 91.11

= 175.38 - 91.11

= 84.27

from these scores we can see that David scored higher in his grade

1. A drama club earned $662.50 from a production where 85 adult tickets were sold and 65
student tickets were sold. An adult ticket costs $2.50 more than a student ticket. Which
system of equations can be used to find a, the cost of an adult ticket, and s, the cost of a
student ticket?

Answers

Answer: The cost of adult ticket is $6.1 and that of student ticket is $2.44

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of adult ticket be 'x' and cost of student ticket be 'y'

From the question, the equations formed are:

[tex]662.5=85x+65y[/tex]                .....(1)

[tex]x=2.5y[/tex]                                ......(2)

Putting value of 'y' from equation 2 to equation 1:

[tex]662.5=85(2.5x)+65y\\\\662.5=271.5y\\\\y=\frac{662.5}{271.5}=\$ 2.44[/tex]

Now, solving for 'x', we get:

[tex]x=2.5(2.44)=\$ 6.1[/tex]

Hence, the cost of adult ticket is $6.1 and that of student ticket is $2.44

you and your friend start biking to opposite directions from the same point. You travel 108 feet every 8 seconds. Your friend travels 63 feet every 6 seconds. a) how far apart are you and your friend after 15 minutes? b) after 20 minutes you take a 5- minutes rest, but your friend does not. How far apart are you and your friend after 40 minutes? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

To find your distance apart, you can convert 15 minutes to seconds because that is what the rate is given in.

15 mins x 60 seconds = 900 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

In 900 seconds, there are 900/8=112.5 groups of 8 seconds. This means there are 112.5 groups of 108 feet.

112.5 x 108 = 12150 feet

12150 feet/5280 feet is approximately 2.3 miles.

For your friend you take 900/6 = 150 groups of 6 seconds.

150 x 63 = 9540 feet

9540 feet/5280 feet = 1.79 miles

1.79 miles + 2.3 miles = 2.09 miles

You and your friend are about 2.09 miles apart after 15 minutes.

B). If you go 2.3 miles every 15 minutes, that means you travel about 0.77 miles every 5 minutes. If you travel 20 more minutes (40-15-5) that would be 0.77x 4=3.07 miles more

3.07 + 2.3 = 5.37 miles after 40 minutes (you).

Your friend travels 1.79 in 15 minutes, so 1.79/3 = 0.6 miles every 5 minutes

0.6 x 5 (5 x 5 = 25 minutes)= 3 miles

1.79 + 3 miles= 4.79 miles (friend)

4.79 + 5.37 = 10.16 miles

You and your friend are about 10.16 miles apart after 40 minutes.

Dan's car depreciates at a rate of 7% per year.
By what percentage has Dan's car depreciated after 6 years?
Give your answer to the nearest percent.

Answers

Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

The car is depreciated at a rate of 7% per year

We need to find out the percentage when the car is depreciated after 6 years

So,

Since the car is depreciated by 7% so we can say it can be 0.93 times in a year

Now after 6 years, it would make

= 0.93^3

= 0.80

So, the percentage is

= 1 - 0.80

= 0.20

= 20%

Suppose that the logons to a computer network follow a Poisson process with an average of 3 logons per minute. (a) What is the mean time between logons (in minutes)

Answers

Answer:

The mean time between logons is of 0.3333 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Poisson process with an average of 3 logons per minute.

This means that the time between logons follows an exponential distribution, which mean is given by:

[tex]E(X) = \frac{1}{\lambda}[/tex]

For this question, we have that [tex]\lambda = 3[/tex], and thus:

[tex]E(X) = \frac{1}{\lambda} = \frac{1}{3} = 0.3333[/tex]

The most commonly seen Pythagorean triples are (3, 4, 5), (5, 12, 13), (7, 24, 25), (8, 15, 17) and their multiples.

In problem 4, once you see that the differences of the coordinates are 3 and 4, you can consult your memory of the (3, 4, 5) Pythagorean triple to recognize the hypotenuse length of a triangle with sides 3 and 4 is 5.

Similarly, in problem 5, you recognize the coordinate differences as 5 and 12, so you know from the (5, 12, 13) Pythagorean triple that the distance will be 13.

At a board meeting of 30 businessmen, all of whom wear ties, what are the following probabilities?

a. at least one tie is too tight
b. more than two ties are too tight
c. no tie is too tight
d. at least 18 ties are not too tight

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.9998

b) 0.9979

c) 0.7

d) 0.9155

Step-by-step explanation:

P( people who wear their ties tightly ) = 0.3

P( people who do not wear their ties tightly ) = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7

sample size ( n ) = 30

Given that the events are independent and there are only two outcomes we will apply Binomial distribution

a) P( at least one tie is too tight )

P ( x ≥ 1 ) = 1 - P ( x < 1 ) = 1 - P ( x = 0 )

       = 1 - 0.00002 = 0.9998 ( excel function: 1 - BINOMDIST(0,30,0.3,0) )

b) P( more than two ties are too tight )

P ( x > 2 ) = 1 - P ( x ≤ 2 ) = 1 - BINOMDIST(2, 30, 0.3, 1 )

                                       = 1 - 0.002113178

                                       = 0.9979

c) P ( no tie is tight )

P ( x = 0 ) = 0.7

d) P( at least 18 ties are not too tight )    i.e. ( P = 0.7 )

   P ( x ≥ 18 ) = 1 - P( x ≤  17 )

                     = 1 - BINOMDIST ( 17, 30, 0.7, 1 )
