In 2007, Bob Jones University ended its fall semester a week early because of a whooping cough outbreak; 158 students were isolated with suspected infection and another 1200 given antibiotics as a precaution.14 Authorities react strongly to whooping cough outbreaks because the disease is so contagious. Because the effect of childhood vaccination often wears off by late adolescence, treat the Bob Jones students as if they were unvaccinated. It appears that approximately 1400 students were exposed. What is the probability that at least 75% of these students would develop infections if not treated

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

If not treated, the probability of at least 75 percent of 1400 students being infected is approximately equal to 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Y be the no. of infections

The number of students who have been exposed to whooping cough is as follows:

n = 1400

n = 1400  and p = 0.8

nm = 1400 x 0.8

nm = 1120

n(1-m) = 1400 x (1-0.8)

n(1-m) = 280

Here,

Both nm and n(1-m) are greater than or equal to 10. So, we use normal distribution.

The mean and standard deviation of number of new infections is:

u = np

u =1400 x 0.8

u = 1120 = mean

SD = Standard Deviation  

SD = [tex]\sqrt{1120(1-0.8)}[/tex]

SD = 14.966

The number of infections is distributed in an approximately normal way

N(1120,14.966)

75% of 1400 means 0.75  x 1400 = 1050

So,

Probability required.

P (Y[tex]\geq[/tex] 1050) = P (Y [tex]\geq[/tex] 1050 - 0.5)    (Continuity Correction)

P (Y[tex]\geq[/tex] 1050) = P([tex]\frac{Y - u}{SD} \geq \frac{1049.5 - 1120}{14.966}[/tex])

P (Y[tex]\geq[/tex] 1050) =  P(Z [tex]\geq[/tex] -4.71)

P (Y[tex]\geq[/tex] 1050) = P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 4.71)

Using the z table:

P (Y[tex]\geq[/tex] 1050) ≈ 1

Hence,

If not treated, the probability of at least 75 percent of 1400 students being infected is approximately equal to 1.

To find:

Measurement of ∠KMH

Steps:

Since we know HML is a line and equals to 180°, then

∠LMK + ∠KMH = ∠HML

    83° + ∠KMH = 180°

             ∠KMH = 180° - 83°

Therefore the measurement of ∠KMH is 97°

Common difference 'd' = 95

Recursive formula represents a linear growth in the population.

Therefore, explicit formula for the given sequence will be,

[tex]L_n[/tex] = L₀ + (n - 1)d [Explicit formula of an Arithmetic sequence]

Here n = Number of terms

At a farmers market, a package of pears weighs 3lb and cost $9. Bananas are priced at 4lb per dollar. Use rates to explain witch kind of fruit is more expensive per pound​

Answers

Answer:

The pears are more expensive per pound

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the cost per pound of the pears and bananas by dividing the cost by the number of pounds:

Pears:

9/3

= 3 ($3 per pound of pears)

Bananas:

1/4

= 0.25 ($0.25 per pound of bananas)

Since 3 is larger than 0.25, this means the pears are more expensive per pound.

==============================================================

Explanations:

a) It's a very unfortunate part of life that everyone dies, and some do earlier than others. In general and on a grand scale of things, the older generations tend to die more frequently compared to the younger generations. In other words, an 90 year old man is more likely to die than say a 20 year old man. This is assuming that they both live in the same environment with other factors held constant as well. Because the older generation dies more frequently, this means we have the main cluster to the right (where the ages are older) and a long tail stretching to the left. The tail is the set of outliers of people who died at a fairly young age. Again, I'm not saying that young people don't die, but I'm saying that they don't die as much compared to older people. This tail on the left tells us we have negatively skewed data.b) Most cars are priced low so that people can afford them. So the main cluster is to the left while we have outliers to the right. The outliers to the right represent very expensive luxury cars. The outliers on the right side pull on the right tail to make it skewed to the right. We consider this positively skewed. In contrast, the one for part (a) was negatively skewed. Think of the positive and negative directions on the x axis to help figure out which direction things are being skewed in.c) Some people have a lot of pets, while others have few or none at all. In the middle is some average number where the highest peak is located. The distribution is fairly normal as with anything scattered about on average.d) Similar to part (c). There are some very short women, and some are very tall, but the majority are within some range of the average height. Doing a dot plot or a histogram of the distribution help leads to an approximately normal distribution, which is symmetric.

Step-by-step explanation:

A motel owner observes that when a room is priced at $60 per day, all 80 rooms of the motel are occupied. For every $3 rise in the charge per room per day, one more room is vacant. Each occupied room costs an additional $15 per day to maintain.
a) Find the demand function, expressing p, the price charged for each room per day, as a function of x, the number of rooms occupied.
b) Find the profit function P(x).
c) Find the price of per room per day the motel should charge in order to maximize its profit.

Answers

Answer:

a) p(x) = 300 - 3

b) P(x) = -3 x² + 285 x

c) Price of per room per day  = $ 157.5

when Number of rooms occupied , x = 47.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - A motel owner observes that when a room is priced at $60 per day, all 80 rooms of the motel are occupied. For every $3 rise in the charge per room per day, one more room is vacant. Each occupied room costs an additional $15 per day to maintain.

To find - a) Find the demand function, expressing p, the price charged for each room per day, as a function of x, the number of rooms occupied.

             b) Find the profit function P(x).

             c) Find the price of per room per day the motel should charge in order to maximize its profit.

Proof -

a)

Let

(x, y) be the point

where x represents number of rooms occupied

and y represents price of room per day.

Now,

Given that,

a room is priced at $60 per day, all 80 rooms of the motel are occupied.

So, point becomes (80, 60)

And  given that For every $3 rise in the charge per room per day, one more room is vacant.

So, point becomes (79, 63)

Now, we have two points (80, 60), (79, 63)

Let us assume that,

p(x) be the price charged for each room per day

Now,

By using point - slope formula , we get

p -60 = [tex]\frac{(63 - 60}{(79 - 80)} (x - 80)[/tex]

⇒p -60 = (-3)(x-80)

⇒p-60 = 240 -3 x

⇒p(x) = 240 + 60 -3 x

⇒p(x) = 300 - 3 x

b)

Given that,

Each occupied room costs an additional $15 per day to maintain.

Let C(x) be the cost function,

Then C(x) =15 x

now,

Revenue function,

R(x) =x*p

      = x*(300 -3 x )

      = 300 x - 3 x²

⇒R(x) = 300 x - 3 x²

Now,

We know

Profit function = Revenue function - Cost function

⇒P(x) = R(x)-C(x)

⇒P(x) = (300 x -3 x²) -15 x

⇒P(x) = -3 x² + 285 x

c)

P'(x) = -6 x +285

For Maximize profit , Put P'(x) = 0

⇒-6 x+ 285 =0

⇒6 x= 285

⇒x = [tex]\frac{285}{6}[/tex]

⇒x= 47.5

∴ we get

Maximize profit is when price, p = 300 - 3x

                                                      = 300 -3(47.5)

                                                      = $157.5

⇒Price of per room per day  = $ 157.5

when Number of rooms occupied , x = 47.5

what is the equation o the situation?
Could you please give me the equation and show me how you got it please so I could understand... thanks.

Answers

Answer: $8.75 for 250 vitamins.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how much each vitamin costs we can divide $5.25 by 150.

5.25/150 = 0.035. So each vitamin is equal to $0.035.

We can then multiply the cost of 1 vitamin by 250.

0.035 x 250 = 8.75 or $8.75.

We can also make an equation for this problem. Let the total cost be equal to y and each vitamin equal to x.

y = 0.035x

So the equation above states that the total cost, y, is the amount of vitamins that are bought.

The answer is c

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the height of tower when finished.

We know that Priya takes a break when the tower is 2 and 1/2 feet tall, which is 5/8 off the height of the tower she wants to build.

This means that 5/8 of x equals 2 and 1/2 Let us represent this information in an equation.

5/8 × x = 2 and 1/2

Convert our given mixed fraction into improper fraction.

5/8 × x = 5/2

Multiply both sides of our equation by 8/5.

(8/5 × 5/8) × x = (5/2 × 8/5)

x = 8/2

x = 4

The maximum amount Eric can spend on magazines is $25 less the cost of lunch, $15.

The appropriate inequality sign would be less than since he cannot spend more than $25.

Also, the amount he can spend on magazines would be what is left after paying for lunch.

So the correct inequality is 4m - 15 < 25
