Suppose that your boss must choose four employees in your office to attend a conference in Jamaica. Because all 15 of you want to go, he decides that the only fair way is to draw names out of a hat. What is the probability that you, Kyle, Carol, and Adam are chosen? Enter a fraction or round your answer to 4 decimal places, if necessary.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1 / 1365

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of employees to choose from = 15

Number of employees to be chosen = 4

Probability of choosing You, Kyle, Carol and Adam

Recall ;

P(A) = number of required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Number of required outcome = 4C4

Total possible outcomes = 15C4

nCr = n! ÷ (n-r)!r!

Using calculator to save computation time :

15C4 = 1365

4C4 = 1

P(choosing you, Kyle, Carol and Adam) :

1 / 1365

A farmer finds that if she plants 55 trees per acre, each tree will yield 25 bushels of fruit. She estimates that for each additional tree planted per acre, the yield of each tree will decrease by 4 bushels. How many trees should she plant per acre to maximize her harvest

Answers

Answer:

31 trees per acre will maximize the harvest

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Plant \to 55[/tex] trees/acre

[tex]Yield \to 25[/tex] bushels

[tex]x \to trees[/tex]

Required

Number of trees to maximize harvest

From the question, we understand that:

Yield will decrease by 4 i.e. 25 - 4x

For every additional tree planted, i.e. 55 + x

So, the function is:

[tex]F(x) = (25- 4x)*(55+x)[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]F(x) = 25 * 55 -4x * 55 + 25 * x -4x*x[/tex]

[tex]F(x) = 1375 - 220x + 25x -4x^2[/tex]

[tex]F(x) = 1375 -195x -4x^2[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]F(x) = -4x^2 -195x +1375[/tex]

The maximum of a quadratic function is calculated as:

[tex]Max = -\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

In the above equation:

[tex]a = -4; b =-195; c = 1375[/tex]

So:

[tex]x = -\frac{-195}{2 * -4}[/tex]

[tex]x = -\frac{195}{8}[/tex]

[tex]x = -24.375[/tex]

Recall that the number of trees to be planted is: 55 + x

So, we have:

[tex]Trees = 55+x[/tex]

[tex]Trees = 55-24.375[/tex]

[tex]Trees = 30.625[/tex]

Approximate

[tex]Trees = 31[/tex]

Answer:

  22.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a square base prism is given by the formula ...

  V = 1/3s²h

Then the height can be found to be ...

  h = 3V/s² = 3(120 ft³)/(4 ft)² = 22.5 ft

The height of the container is 22.5 feet.

Answers

Answer:

133 fishes

Step-by-step explanation:

Units of food A = 400 units

Units of food B = 400 units

Fish Bass required 2 units of A and 4 units of B.

Fish Trout requires 5 units of A and 2 units of B.

i. For food A,

total units of food A required = 2 + 5

                                                 = 7 units

number of bass and trout that would consume food A = 2 x [tex]\frac{400}{7}[/tex]

                                               = 114.3

number of bass and trout that would consume food A = 114

ii. For food B,

total units of food B required = 4 + 2

                                                = 6 units

number of bass and trout that would consume food B = 2 x [tex]\frac{400}{6}[/tex]

                                                 = 133.3

number of bass and trout that would consume food B = 133

Thus, the maximum number of fish that the lake can support is 133.

A recent study suggested that 70% of all eligible voters will vote in the next presidential election. Suppose 20 eligible voters were randomly selected from the population of all eligible voters. What is the probability that fewer than 11 of them will vote

Answers

Answer:

0.0479 = 4.79% probability that fewer than 11 of them will vote

Step-by-step explanation:

For each voter, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they will vote, or they will not. The probability of a voter voting is independent of any other voter, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

70% of all eligible voters will vote in the next presidential election.

This means that [tex]p = 0.7[/tex]

20 eligible voters were randomly selected from the population of all eligible voters.

This means that [tex]n = 20[/tex]

What is the probability that fewer than 11 of them will vote?

This is:

[tex]P(X < 11) = P(X = 10) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 0)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 10) = C_{20,10}.(0.7)^{10}.(0.3)^{10} = 0.0308[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 9) = C_{20,9}.(0.7)^{9}.(0.3)^{11} = 0.0120[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 8) = C_{20,8}.(0.7)^{8}.(0.3)^{12} = 0.0039[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 7) = C_{20,7}.(0.7)^{7}.(0.3)^{13} = 0.0010[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 6) = C_{20,10}.(0.7)^{6}.(0.3)^{12} = 0.0002[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{20,5}.(0.7)^{5}.(0.3)^{15} \approx 0[/tex]

The probability of 5 or less voting is very close to 0, so they will not affect the outcome. Then

[tex]P(X < 11) = P(X = 10) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 0) = 0.0308 + 0.0120 + 0.0039 + 0.0010 + 0.0002 = 0.0479[/tex]

0.0479 = 4.79% probability that fewer than 11 of them will vote

P= payments

r = interest rate for the period (which is a quarter )

PV = present value (or the amount borrowed)

please help!!!

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

 (2)  72°

Step-by-step explanation:

In this geometry, the angle at the tangent is half the measure of the intercepted arc.

  ∠CBD = (arc BD)/2 = 144°/2

  ∠CBD = 72°

__

Additional comment

Consider a point X anywhere on long arc BD. The inscribed angle at X will have half the measure of short arc BD, so will be 144°/2 = 72°. This is true regardless of the position of X on long arc BD. Now, consider that X might be arbitrarily close to point B. The angle at X is still 72°.

As X approaches B, the chord XB approaches a tangent to the circle at B. Effectively, this tangent geometry is a limiting case of inscribed angle geometry.

What is system of equations?

A system of equations is a collection of two or more equations with a same set of unknown variables.

What is solution to the system of equation?

A solution to a system of equations is a set of values for the variable that satisfy all the equations simultaneously.

What is substitution method?

The substitution method is a method to solve simultaneous linear equations. In which the value of one variable from one equation is substituted in the other equation.

According to the given question

we have a system of equations

[tex]6x + 3y = 24..(i)[/tex]

and, [tex]3x -4y = -21..(ii)[/tex]

From equation (i)

[tex]6x + 3y = 24[/tex]

⇒ [tex]2x + y = 8[/tex]

⇒ [tex]y = 8-2x[/tex]

Substitute the value of y in equation (ii)

⇒[tex]3x - 4(8-2x)=-21[/tex]

⇒[tex]3x-32+8x =-21[/tex]

⇒[tex]11x = 32-21[/tex]

⇒[tex]11x = 11[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x =1[/tex]

Substitute, x = 1 in either the equations (i) and (ii)

⇒[tex]3(1)-4y =-21[/tex]

⇒[tex]3 -4y=-21[/tex]

⇒[tex]-4y = -21-3[/tex]

⇒-4y = -24

⇒[tex]y =6[/tex]

Hence, the value of x and y for the given system of equations is 1 and 6 respectively.

Answers

Answer:

The growth rate of the exponential function exceeds the growth rate of the linear function for 1 > x > 3

Step-by-step explanation:

edg2020 thank me latter

The growth rate of the exponential function exceeds the growth rate of the linear function for 1 ≤ x ≤ 3.

We have,

The graph of the linear function y = 7x is a straight line with a constant slope of 7, while the graph of the exponential function y = 7% is an increasing curve that starts at y = 1 and approaches y = infinity as x increases.

To compare the growth rates of the two functions, we can look at their derivatives.

The derivative of y = 7x is 7, which is a constant, while the derivative of

y = 7% is y' = 0.07y, which is proportional to y.

Now,

For x < 0, the growth rate of the linear function y = 7x exceeds the growth rate of the exponential function y = 7%.

This eliminates options 1 and 3.

For x > 0, the growth rate of the exponential function y = 7% exceeds the growth rate of the linear function y = 7x, since the derivative of the exponential function is proportional to the function itself.

This eliminates option 2.

Thus,

The growth rate of the exponential function exceeds the growth rate of the linear function for 1 ≤ x ≤ 3.
