Answer 1

Answer:

x = 6y = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant relation is that the product of distances from the point of intersection of secants to the two points of intersection of each with the circle is a constant. The point of tangency counts as both points of intersection.

__

By way of example, the product of distances to the circle for the tangent segment is 10·10 = 100

This is also the product of the distances on the secant that intersects the tangent:

  100 = 5(5+x+9)

  20 = x +14 . . . . . divide by 5

  x = 6 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 14

__

The same is true when the secants intersect inside the circle:

  6·9 = y·3

  y = 18 . . . . . . divide by 3

Find and interpret the mean absolute deviation of the data. Round your answers to the nearest tenth. If necessary 101.5 98.7 95.4 92.3 109.8 104.7

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\bar X = 100.4[/tex]

And we can calculate the deviations from each value like this:

[tex] |101.5-100.4 |=1.1[/tex]

[tex] |98.7-100.4 |=1.7[/tex]

[tex] |95.4-100.4 |=5.0[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

9.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is equal to

P =2(l+w)

29.6 = 2(5.3+z)

Divide each side by 2

29.6 /2 =2/2(5.3+z)

14.8 = 5.3 +z

Subtract 5.3 from each side

14.8-5.3 = z

9.5 =z

Answer:

Z=9.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter(of a triangle)=2(5.3+z)

29.6=10.6+2z

2z=29.6-10.6

2z=19(then divide both sides by 2 to find the value of z)

z=19/2

z=9.5 ft

To check your answer

29.6=2(5.3+9.5)

29.6=2(14.8)

29.6=29.6 so your answer is correct.

Samantha and Jillian were going for a walk. Jillian left 15 seconds ahead of Samantha. Samantha walked at a speed of 7 feet per second.Jillian walked at a speed of 6 feet per second. How many seconds had Jillian been walking when the two girls had walked the same distance?

Answers

Answer:

  105 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the relation ...

  distance = speed · time

to write equations for the distance each girl travels as a function of time t since Jillian started.

  Jillian's distance = (6 ft/s)(t)

  Samantha's distance = (7 ft/s)(t -15) . . . . Samantha starts 15 seconds after the clock starts running

These distances are the same when ...

  6t = 7(t -15)

  6t = 7t -105 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  105 = t . . . . . . . . add 105-6t

Jillian had been walking 105 seconds when the two girls met.

At a financial services company, the mean percent allocation for bonds in a retirement portfolio is 26.9 percent with a population standard deviation of 3.6 percent. A random sample of 35 retirement plan participants was taken and the probability that the mean bond percent for the sample will be at least 28 percent was determined. Was the probability a Left-tail, Right -tail or Interval Probability

Answers

Answer: it is a right tailed probability

Step-by-step explanation:

Population proportion = 26.9/100 = 0.269

We are dealing with the fact that the probability that the mean bond percent for the sample will be at least 28. This means that the sample proportion is 0.28 or above. This means that it is greater than the population proportion of 0.269

The hypothesis would be

For null hypothesis

p = 0.269

For alternative hypothesis,

p > 0.269

The inequality sign means that it is right tailed.

In​ finance, one example of a derivative is a financial asset whose value is determined​ (derived) from a bundle of various​ assets, such as mortgages. Suppose a randomly selected mortgage in a certain bundle has a probability of 0.08 of default. ​(a) What is the probability that a randomly selected mortgage will not​ default? ​(b) What is the probability that nine randomly selected mortgages will not default assuming the likelihood any one mortgage being paid off is independent of the​ others? Note: A derivative might be an investment that only pays when all nine mortgages do not default. ​(c) What is the probability that the derivative from part​ (b) becomes​ worthless? That​ is, at least one of the mortgages defaults

Answers

Answer:

a) 92% probability that a randomly selected mortgage will not​ default

b) 47.22% probability that nine randomly selected mortgages will not default

c) 52.78% probability that the derivative from part​ (b) becomes​ worthless

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Suppose a randomly selected mortgage in a certain bundle has a probability of 0.08 of default.

This means that [tex]p = 0.08[/tex]

(a) What is the probability that a randomly selected mortgage will not​ default?

Either it defaults, or it does not default. The sum of the probabilities of these outcomes is 1. So

0.08 + p = 1

p = 0.92

92% probability that a randomly selected mortgage will not​ default

(b) What is the probability that nine randomly selected mortgages will not default assuming the likelihood any one mortgage being paid off is independent of the​ others?

This is P(X = 0) when n = 9. So

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{9,0}.(0.08)^{0}.(0.92)^{9} = 0.4722[/tex]

47.22% probability that nine randomly selected mortgages will not default.

​(c) What is the probability that the derivative from part​ (b) becomes​ worthless? That​ is, at least one of the mortgages defaults

Either none defect, or at least one does. The sum of the probabilities of these events is 100%. So

p + 47.22 = 100

p = 52.78

52.78% probability that the derivative from part​ (b) becomes​ worthless

A population has standard deviation σ =17.5.

Required:
a. How large a sample must be drawn so that a 99.9% confidence interval for will have a margin of error equal to 4.1. Round the critical value to no less than three decimal places. Round the sample size up to the nearest integer. A sample size of_________ is needed to be drawn in order to obtain a confidence interval with a margin of error equal to 4.1 .

b. If the required confidence level were 95%, would the necessary sample size be larger or smaller?

Answers

Answer:

a) A sample size of 195 is needed.

b) Smaller

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1-0.999}{2} = 0.0005[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex].

So it is z with a pvalue of [tex]1-0.0005 = 0.9995[/tex], so [tex]z = 3.27[/tex]

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

a. How large a sample must be drawn so that a 99.9% confidence interval for will have a margin of error equal to 4.1.

We need a sample size of n.

n is found when [tex]M = 4.1[/tex]

We have that [tex]\sigma = 17.5[/tex]

So

[tex]M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]4.1 = 3.27*\frac{17.5}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]4.1\sqrt{n} = 3.27*17.5[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{3.27*17.5}{4.1}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{3.27*17.5}{4.1})^{2}[/tex]

[tex]n = 194.8[/tex]

Rounding up

A sample size of 195 is needed.

b. If the required confidence level were 95%, would the necessary sample size be larger or smaller?

Same as above for n, the difference is that z would be 1.96 instead of 3.27. So a smaller sample size.

A parking lot for a new ice cream stand has an area of 5000 square yards. The length of the lot is 50 yards longer than its width. Determine algebraically the dimensions of the parking lot, in yards.

Answers

Answer:

length = 50 + 50 = 100 yards

width = 50 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of parking lot for the the ice cream stand is given as  5000 yard². The length of the yard is 50 yard longer than its width.

Let

width = a

length = 50 + a

The parking lot is definitely a rectangle .

Area of a rectangle = length × width

area =  (50 + a)a

5000 = (50 + a)a

5000 = 50a + a²

a² + 50a - 5000 = 0

The numbers that can be multiply together to give you -5000 is -50 and 100 and this same number can be added to give 50. Therefore,

a² - 50a + 100a - 5000 = 0

a(a - 50) + 100(a - 50) = 0

(a + 100)(a - 50) = 0

a = -100 or 50

We can't use negative value so we use 50.

length = 50 + 50 = 100 yards

width = 50 yards

Lisa is framing a rectangular painting length more than twice the widthShe uses 30 inches of framing material. What the length of the paintingWrite equation and solve.



A.3w+3=30;21

b.3w+3=30;9

C.6w+6=30;11

D.6w + 6 = 30 = 4

Answers

Answer:

6w = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

We should know that the 30 inches of framing material were used to frame the four sides of the rectangle.

The perimeter of the rectangle is what we should be considering, whenever we are dealing with frames.

This is 2 X (length + width)

From the questions, we can get the dimensions of the rectangle using clues from the various statements made.

From the statement"a rectangular painting length more than twice the width" we can see that the

L = 2w ------------------------- equation 1

substituting this value into the formula for the perimeter of the rectangle we have

30 = 2(2w + w)

30 = 6w

w= 5

from equation 1

L =2 X (5) = 10

Hence, we can set up the equation

6w = 30

However, the closest option to what we have is option D

6w + 6 = 30 - 4

complete question:

Lisa is framing a rectangular painting. The length is three more than twice the width. She uses 30 inches of framing material. What is the length of the printing? Write an equation and solve

Answer:

D.6w + 6 = 30 = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter = 30 inches

width = w

length = 2w + 3

perimeter of a rectangle = 2l + 2w

where

w = width

l = length

Therefore,

perimeter of a rectangle = 2(2w + 3) + 2w

perimeter of the rectangle = 4w + 6 + 2w

perimeter = 6w + 6

recall

perimeter = 30 inches

6w + 6 = 30

6w = 24

divide both sides by 6

w = 24/6

w = 4
