Select the correct answer. In which of the scenarios can you reverse the dependent and independent variables while keeping the interpretation of the slope meaningful? A. As the number of cigarettes smoked in a day increases, the risk for lung cancer increases. B. As the age of an infant increases, the height of the infant increases. C. As the number of vehicles in a city increases, the amount of pollution in the city increases. D. As the concentration of salt in water increases, the density of water increases. E. As the number of calls made by a cell phone increases, the cell phone bill amount increases. Reset Next

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

In Option A, we can see that the reverse may not be true as the increase in the risk for lung cancer may not necessarily mean an increase in cigarette smoked in a day. For example, high risk of lung cancer may be due to high exposure to asbestos dust too.

In Option B, again we can see that the reverse may not be true as an increase in the height of an infant does not necessarily mean that the age of the infant is increasing too. For example the infant may have a rapid gain in height even if the age is not increasing as rapidly.

In Option C, too, that an increase in the amount of pollution in a city does necessarily mean that the number of vehicles in the city has increased. For example, this increase in pollution may be due to the establishment of a high pollution causing industry in the city or in it's vicinity.

Likewise, in Option D, an increase in the density of water does not necessarily mean that the concentration of salt in the water has increased.

Only in Option E do we see a possible reverse dependence happening because an increase in the phone bill amount does usually mean an increase in the number of calls made by the cell phone.

So, in the given list of Options only in Option E can we reverse the dependent and independent variables while keeping the interpretation of the slope meaningful.

A risky stock sells for $10 per share. With probability 0.3, the stock will be worth 3 times as much in two years. With probability 0.7, the stock will be worth 1/10 as much in two years. Suppose you buy 10 shares of the stock and then sell the stock in two years. Let N be the random variable denoting your net gain in dollars. What is the expected value of N

Answers

The expected value of the net gain from selling the stock in 2 years is $-3.

What is the net gain?

The net gain is the total profit from selling the stock less the total cost of buying the stock

Total cost of buying the stock = 10 x $10 = $-100

Expected selling price = (0.3 x $100 x 3) + (0.7 x$100 x 1/10) += $97

Net gain = $97 - $100= $-3

The area A of the rectangle shown is 500 square meters. Find the value of x. Then give the dimensions of the rectangle.

Answers

Answer:

Length = 4(7) - 3 = 25 mWidth = 2(7) + 6 = 20 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Area Formula

*Area* = *Length* × *Width*

Given

Area = 500 square metersLength = (4x - 3) metersWidth = (2x + 6) meters

Solving

(4x - 3)(2x + 6) = 5008x² - 6x + 24x - 18 = 5008x² + 18x - 18 - 500 = 04x² + 9x - 259 = 0(4x + 37)(x - 7) = 0x = 7 [as distance is always positive]

Dimensions

Length = 4(7) - 3 = 25 mWidth = 2(7) + 6 = 20 m
Length=L=4x-3Breadth=B=2x+6

Now

Area =LB(4x-3)(2x+6)=5008x²+18x-518=0(x-7)(4x+37)=0x=7 or -37/4

Take it positive

L=4(7)-3=28-3=25B=2(7)+6=20

Amina thinks of a number and subtracts 5/2 from it. she multiplies the result by 8. the result now obtained is 3 times another number she thought of.what is the number?

Answers

Answer:

The way the problem is written: y = 8x/3 - 20/3

If the two numbers are the same: the number is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

She thought of 2 numbers.

The first number is x.

The second number is y.

8(x - 5/2) = 3y

We have one equation with two variables, so we do not have enough information to find the two numbers.

We can just express one number in terms of the other number.

8x - 20 = 3y

3y = 8x - 20

y = 8x/3 - 20/3

If the problem were:

"Amina thinks of a number and subtracts 5/2 from it. She multiplies the result by 8. The result now obtained is 3 times the same number she thought of. What is the number?",

then there is only one variable, and we can find the number.

8(x - 5/2) = 3x

8x - 20 = 3x

5x = 20

x = 4

The number is 4.

The manufacturer of a fertilizer guarantees that, with the aid of the fertilizer, 80% of planted seeds will germinate. Suppose the manufacturer is correct. If 10 seeds planted with the fertilizer are randomly selected, what is the probability that more than 7 of them germinate

Answers

The Probability of that more than 7 of them germinate is 0.2948.

What is Probability?Probability is the branch of mathematics concerning numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur, or how likely it is that a proposition is true. The probability of an event is a number between 0 and 1.

We are to determine the probability that more than 7 of 10 seeds (i.e. 8, 0r 9 0r 10) germinate.

The probability that all 10 seeds germinate is equal 0.80¹⁰= 0.1073 = 10.73%.

The probability that only the first (only the second, etc ) seed does not germinate is equal 0.20 X 0.80⁹= 0.0268 = 2.68%.

The probability that 6 seeds germinate is the sum of the probabilities that only the first seed does not germinate, only the second one does not germinate, etc, and equals to 10 X 0.0268  = 0.268 = 26.8%.

The total probability that more than 7 of 10 seeds germinate is the sum of the probabilities that 10 seeds germinate and that 7 seeds germinate, i.e. 2.68 % + 26.8 % = 29.48 %.

Thus, The Probability of that more than 7 of them germinate is 0.2948.

Calculate the maximum volume of each dump truck. How many trucks are needed to deliver the rock in one trip?

The number of trucks needed to deliver the rock in one trip will be 6.

How to find the volume of a right rectangular prism?

Suppose that the right rectangular prism in consideration be having its dimensions as 'a' units, 'b' units, and 'c' units, then its volume is given as:

V =  a x b x c

A transport company needs to deliver 500,000 pounds of rocks to a construction site.

The company owns a set of dump trucks- each with a container in the shape of a rectangular prism (figure A).

If each pound of rock has a volume of 0.01 cubic feet.

Then the total volume of rock that the transport company is responsible for.

Volume of rocks = 0.01 x 500,000

Volume of rocks = 5,000 ft³

Then the maximum volume of each dump truck will be

Volume of truck = 12 x 9 x 8

Volume of truck = 864 ft³

Then the number of the trucks are needed to deliver the rock in one trip will be

Number of trucks = 5000 / 864

Number of trucks = 5.787

Number of trucks ≅ 6

Answers

Answer:X is equal to -4 twice

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution to the equation 2x² + 8x = x² - 16 is x = -4.

Option A is the correct answer.

What is a solution?

Solutions are the values of an equation where the values are substituted in the variables of the equation and make the equality in the equation true.

We also find the solution in a system of equations using the substitution or elimination method.

Example:

2x + 4 = 8

The solution is x = 2.

We have,

To solve the equation 2x² + 8x = x² - 16, we first simplify it by moving all the terms to one side:

2x² + 8x - x² + 16 = 0

Simplifying further, we get:

x² + 8x + 16 = 0

This is a quadratic equation of the form ax² + bx + c = 0, where a = 1, b = 8, and c = 16.

We can solve this equation by factoring it:

(x + 4)(x + 4) = 0

This gives us two solutions:

x + 4 = 0 or x + 4 = 0

x = -4 or x = -4

Therefore,

The solution to the equation 2x² + 8x = x² - 16 is x = -4.
