You work at a farm that wants to build three identical rectangular corrals in a row against the side of a barn using 112 ft of fencing. No fence is needed next to the barn itself. What dimensions (for each individual corral) will maximize the corral areas

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x  =  14 ft

y  =  56 ft

A(max corral)  =  784/3   =  261.33 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let´s call y the side parallel to the barn, then only one y is going to be fenced.

If we are going to divide the area in three identical corrals we need 4 times x ( the other side perpendicular to the barn)

The perimeter of the rectangular area ( divide in three identical corrals)

112  =  y  +  4*x        or    y  =  112  -  4*x

A (r)  =  x*y

Area as a function of x  is

A(x) = x* ( 112  -  4*x)        A(x)   =  112*x  -  4*x²

Tacking derivatives on both sides of the equation

A´(x)  =  112  - 8*x       A´(x) = 0    112  -  8*x  =  0

x  =  112/8

x  =  14 ft

And  y  =  112  -  4*x     y  =  112 - 56

y  =  56 ft

A(max)  =  14 * 56  =  784 ft²

A(max corral)  =  784/3   =  261.33 ft²

How do we know the area is maximum, tacking the second derivative

A´´(x)  =  - 8     A´´(x) < 0

Then the function A(x) has a maximum at the point x = 14

In a small metropolitan area, annual losses due to storm, fire, andtheft are assumed to be independent, exponentially distributed random variableswith respective means 1.0, 1.5, 2.4. Determine the probability that the maximumof these losses exceeds 3.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]0.4138[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]x \to storm[/tex]

[tex]\mu_x = 1.0[/tex]

[tex]y \to fire[/tex]

[tex]\mu_y = 1.5[/tex]

[tex]z \to theft[/tex]

[tex]\mu_z = 2.4[/tex]

Let the event that the above three factors is greater than 3 be represented as:

[tex]P(A > 3)[/tex]

Using complement rule, we have:

[tex]P(A > 3) = 1 - P(A \le 3)[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]P(A > 3) = 1 - P(\{x \le 3\}\ n\ \{y \le 3\}\ n \{z \le 3\}\)[/tex]

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The exponential distribution formula of each is:

[tex]P(x \le k) = 1 - e^{-\frac{k}{\mu}}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]k = 3; \mu_x = 1[/tex]

[tex]P(x \le 3) = 1 - e^{-\frac{3}{1}} = 1 - e^{-3} = 0.9502[/tex]

[tex]k=3; \mu_y = 1.5[/tex]

[tex]P(y \le 3) = 1 - e^{-\frac{3}{1.5}} = 1 - e^{-2} = 0.8647[/tex]

[tex]k = 3; \mu_z = 2.4[/tex]

[tex]P(z \le 3) = 1 - e^{-\frac{3}{2.4}} = 1 - e^{-1.25} = 0.7135[/tex]

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[tex]P(A > 3) = 1 - P(\{x \le 3\}\ n\ \{y \le 3\}\ n \{z \le 3\}\)[/tex]

[tex]P(A > 3) = 1 - (0.9502 * 0.8647 *0.7135)[/tex]

[tex]P(A > 3) = 1 - 0.5862[/tex]

[tex]P(A > 3) = 0.4138[/tex]

b. Find the margin of error, using a 95% confidence level, for estimating the percentage of all young Americans who earned a high school diploma.
c. Report the 95% confidence interval for the percentage of all young Americans who earned a high school diploma.
d. Suppose that in the past, 80% of all young Americans earned high school diplomas. Does the confidence interval you found in part c support or refute the claim that the percentage of young Americans who cam high school diplomas has increased? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

a) The standard error for this estimate of the percentage of all young Americans who earned a high school diploma is 0.87%.

b) The margin of error, using a 95% confidence level, for estimating the percentage of all young Americans who earned a high school diploma is of 1.71%.

c) The 95% confidence interval for the percentage of all young Americans who earned a high school diploma is (85.29%, 88.71%).

d) The lower bound of the confidence interval is above 80%, which means that the confidence interval supports the claim that the percentage of young Americans who cam high school diplomas has increased.

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].

Standard error:

The standard error is:

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

Margin of error:

The margin of error is:

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

The confidence interval is:

Sample proportion plus/minus margin of error. So

[tex](\pi - M, \pi + M)[/tex]

In a simple random sample of 1500 young Americans 1305 had earned a high school diploma.

This means that [tex]n = 1500, \pi = \frac{1305}{1500} = 0.87[/tex]

a. What is the standard error for this estimate of the percentage of all young Americans who earned a high school diploma?

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.87*0.13}{1500}} = 0.0087[/tex]

0.0087*100% = 0.87%.

The standard error for this estimate of the percentage of all young Americans who earned a high school diploma is 0.87%.

b. Find the margin of error, using a 95% confidence level, for estimating the percentage of all young Americans who earned a high school diploma.

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].

Then

[tex]M = zs = 1.96*0.0087 = 0.0171[/tex]

0.0171*100% = 1.71%

The margin of error, using a 95% confidence level, for estimating the percentage of all young Americans who earned a high school diploma is of 1.71%.

c. Report the 95% confidence interval for the percentage of all young Americans who earned a high school diploma.

87% - 1.71% = 85.29%

87% + 1.71% = 88.71%.

The 95% confidence interval for the percentage of all young Americans who earned a high school diploma is (85.29%, 88.71%).

d. Suppose that in the past, 80% of all young Americans earned high school diplomas. Does the confidence interval you found in part c support or refute the claim that the percentage of young Americans who cam high school diplomas has increased? Explain.

The lower bound of the confidence interval is above 80%, which means that the confidence interval supports the claim that the percentage of young Americans who cam high school diplomas has increased.

Use a calculator to find the lengths x and y of the legs of the right triangle shown

Answers

Answer:

y = 0.47

x = 0.91

Step-by-step explanation:

From the right angled triangle Given :

Applying trigonometry :

To Obtain y :

We use :

Tan θ = opposite / hypotenus

Tan 25 = y / 1

y = 1 * tan 25

y = 0.4663076 * 1

y = 0.47

For x :

We use :

Cosθ = adjacent / hypotenus

Cos 25 = x / 1

0.9063077 = x / 1

x = 0.9063077 * 1

x = 0.9063077

Hence, x = 0.91

A small airplane flies 1015 miles with an average speed of 290 miles per hour. 1.75 hours after the plane leaves, a Boeing 747 leaves from the same point. Both planes arrive at the same time; what was the average speed of the 747

Answers

Answer:

The average speed of the 747 was of 580 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the following relation to solve this question:

[tex]v = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]

In which v is the velocity, d is the distance and t is the time.

A small airplane flies 1015 miles with an average speed of 290 miles per hour.

We have to find the time:

[tex]v = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]

[tex]290 = \frac{1015}{t}[/tex]

[tex]290t = 1015[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{1015}{290}[/tex]

[tex]t = 3.5[/tex]

1.75 hours after the plane leaves, a Boeing 747 leaves from the same point. Both planes arrive at the same time;

The time of the Boeing 747 is:

[tex]t = 3.5 - 1.75 = 1.75[/tex]

Distance of [tex]d = 1015[/tex], the velocity is:

[tex]v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{1015}{1.75} = 580[/tex]

The average speed of the 747 was of 580 miles per hour.

Answer:

  A = 49π/36 or 59π/36

Step-by-step explanation:

The given angle is coterminal with the same angle modulo 2π.

  (563/36)π = 14π +(59/36)π

so the coterminal angle is 59π/36 ≈ 1.6389π, a 4th-quadrant angle. The 3rd-quadrant angle with the same sine value is found by subtracting this angle from 3π:

  A = 3π -(59π/36) = 49π/36

The two values of A that satisfy the equation are ...

A = 59π/36A = 49π/36

Suppose that newborn harbor seal pups have a weight that is normally distributed, with a mean of 22.0 lbs and standard deviation of 1.1 lbs. Find the probability that a newborn pup has a weight above 24.0 lbs.

Answers

Answer:

0.0344 = 3.44% probability that a newborn pup has a weight above 24.0 lbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 22.0 lbs and standard deviation of 1.1 lbs.

This means that [tex]\mu = 22, \sigma = 1.1[/tex]

Find the probability that a newborn pup has a weight above 24.0 lbs.

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 24. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{24 - 22}{1.1}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.82[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.82[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9656.

1 - 0.9656 = 0.0344

0.0344 = 3.44% probability that a newborn pup has a weight above 24.0 lbs.

One hundred draws are made at random with replacement from box A, and 250 are made at random with replacement from box B. (a) 50 of the draws from box A are positive, compared to 131 from box B: 50.0% versus 52.4%. Is this difference real, or due to chance

Answers

Answer:

Therefore WE accept the Null hypothesis [tex]H_0[/tex] That 50.0% versus 52.4%.difference is real

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size A [tex]n_a=100[/tex]

Sample size B [tex]n_b=250[/tex]

Positive draw from box A [tex]n_a=50[/tex]

Positive draw from box b [tex]n_b=131[/tex]

Generally the equation for Probability of Positive draw from Box A is mathematically given by

 [tex]P_1=\frac{50}{100}[/tex]

 [tex]P_1=50%[/tex]

Therefore

 [tex]1-P_1=50\%[/tex]

Generally the equation for Probability of Positive draw from Box A is mathematically given by

 [tex]P_1=\frac{131}{250}[/tex]

 [tex]P_1=52.4%[/tex]

Therefore

 [tex]1-P_1=47.6\%[/tex]

Generally the equation for Standard error S.E is mathematically given by

 [tex]S.E=\sqrt{\frac{n_1(p_1)*(1-P_1)}{n_1^2}+\frac{n_2(P_2(1-p^2))}{n_2^2}}[/tex]

 [tex]S.E=\sqrt{\frac{100(0.50)*(50)}{100^2}+\frac{(250)(0.524(47))}{250^2}}[/tex]

 [tex]S.E=0.592[/tex]

 [tex]S.E=59.2\%[/tex]

Therefore

 [tex]Z=\frac{50-52.4}{59.2}[/tex]

Generally

 [tex]P value P>0.05[/tex]

Therefore WE accept the Null hypothesis [tex]H_0[/tex] That 50.0% versus 52.4%.difference is real
