Answer:

BD = 4.99 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the triangle ABD only.

The angle formed is 31 degrees which occurs between two sides that are AD and BC.

We know that for a right angled triangle, the angle can always be taken as an angle between hypotenuse and base.

Thus, The perpendicular sides is then 3 units, where base is BD and Hypotenuse is AD

Using formula for tanθ

tanθ = Perpendicular/Base

tan31 = 3/BD

0.601 = 3/BD

BD = 3/0.601

BD = 4.99 units

5 rubber stamps cost $9.70 which equation would help determine the cost of 11 rubber stamps
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

$1.94 times 11 =21.34

Step-by-step explanation:

  So 5 rubber stamps cost $9.70. Your going to divide $9.70 by 5 so you get the cost of each stamp which is $1.94 each stamp. Your going to take $1.94 and multiply it by 11. You will get 21.34. :D Hope i helped you c: By the way this is the simplified version of the equation so i dont know if you want a longer version of the answer but ya! :D

The heights of a random sample of 50 college students showed a mean of 174.5 centimeters and a standard deviation of 6.9 centime
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

For me, the first step to any statistics exercise is to determine what is the variable of interest and it's distribution.

In this example the variable is:

X: height of a college student. (cm)

There is no information about the variable distribution. To estimate the population mean you need a variable with at least a normal distribution since the mean is a parameter of it.

The option you have is to apply the Central Limit Theorem.

The central limit theorem states that if you have a population with probability function f(X;μ,δ²) from which a random sample of size n is selected. Then the distribution of the sample mean tends to the normal distribution with mean μ and variance δ²/n when the sample size tends to infinity.

As a rule, a sample of size greater than or equal to 30 is considered sufficient to apply the theorem and use the approximation.

The sample size in this exercise is n=50 so we can apply the theorem and approximate the distribution of the sample mean to normal:

X[bar]~~N(μ;σ2/n)

Thanks to this approximation you can use an approximation of the standard normal to calculate the confidence interval:

98% CI

1 - α: 0.98

⇒α: 0.02

α/2: 0.01

Z_{1-\alpha /2}= Z_{1-0.01}= Z_{0.99} =2.334

X[bar] ± Z_{1-\alpha /2} * \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} }

174.5 ± 2.334* \frac{6.9}{\sqrt{50} }

[172.22; 176.78]

With a confidence level of 98%, you'd expect that the true average height of college students will be contained in the interval [172.22; 176.78].

I hope it helps!

A friend of mine is giving a dinner party. His current wine supply includes 10 bottles of zinfandel, 8 of merlot, and 11 of cabe
Vlada [557]

Answer:

a) 720, b) 475020, c) 69300, d) 0.146, e) 0.001

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that my friend has 10 bottles of zinfandel, 8 of merlot, and 11 of cabernet.

a)

If he wants to serve 3 bottles of zinfandel and serving order is important, then the total number of ways is

10\times 9\times 8=720

Therefore if he wants to serve 3 bottles of zinfandel and serving order is important, then the total number of ways are 720.

b)

The total number of bottles is

10+8+11=29

Combination is defined as

^nC_r=\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}

where, n is total possible outcomes and r is selected outcomes.

we have to select 6 bottles out of 29. so,

^{29}C_{6}=475020

Therefore ff 6 bottles of wine are to be randomly selected from the 29 for serving, then the total number of ways are 475020.

c)

If we want to select 2 bottles of each variety, then total number of ways are

^{10}C_{2}\times ^{8}C_{2}\times ^{11}C_{2}=69300

Therefore if 6 bottles are randomly selected with two bottles of each variety, then the total possible ways are 69300.

d)

Probability is defined as

P=\frac{\text{Total outcomes}}{\text{Favorable outcomes}}

\frac{^{10}C_{2}\times ^{8}C_{2}\times ^{11}C_{2}}{^{29}C_{6}}=\frac{69300}{475020}\approx 0.146

Therefore the probability that two bottles of each variety being chosen is 0.146.

e)

If 6 bottles are randomly selected, then the probability that all of them are the same variety is

\frac{^{10}C_{6}+^{8}C_{6}+^{11}C_{6}}{^{29}C_{6}}=\frac{700}{475020}\approx 0.001

Therefore if 6 bottles are randomly selected, then the probability that all of them are the same variety is 0.001.

Mandy can buy 4 containers of yogurt and 3 boxes of crackers for $9.55. She can buy 2 containers of yogurt and 2 boxes of cracke
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The cost of a box of crackers is $2.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of a containers of yogurt is $x and cost of a box of crackers is $y.

It is given that Mandy can buy 4 containers of yogurt and 3 boxes of crackers for $9.55.

4x+3y=9.55              .... (1)

She can buy 2 containers of yogurt and 2 boxes of crackers for $5.90.

2x+2y=5.90              .... (2)

On solving (1) and (2), using graphing calculator, we get

x=0.7

y=2.25

Therefore the cost of a box of crackers is $2.25.
