A and B have certain number of mangoes. A says to B, " If you give me 10 of your mangoes, I will have twice as many as left with

you." B replies, "If you give me 10 of your mangoes, I will have thrice the number of mangoes left with you. Find the original number of mangoes each had.

Answer:

A had 22 mangoes, B had 26 mangoes

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the following system:

A + 10 = 2(B - 10) -- Equation 1

3(A - 10) = B + 10 -- Equation 2

A + 10 = 2B - 20 → A = 2B - 30 -- Equation 3 (Simplify Equation 1)

3(2B - 30 - 10) = B + 10 -- Equation 4 (Substitute 3 into 2)

3(2B - 40) = B + 10

6B - 120 = B + 10

5B = 130

B = 26 -- (Solve for B in Equation 4)

A = 2 * 26 - 30 = 22 -- (Substitute B = 26 into Equation 3)

                    -15 -12   18

                 5    4   -6    0

Therefore, the width is 5x^2 + 4x - 6

A child wanders slowly down a circular staircase from the top of a tower. With x,y,zx,y,z in feet and the origin at the base of
babymother [125]

Answer:

a) The tower is 90 feet tall

b) She reaches the bottom at t = 18 minutes.

c) Her speed at time t is 5 \sqrt[]{5} ft/minute

d) Her acceleration at time t is 10 ft/minute^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the path described by the child as going down the tower to have the following parametrization \gamma(t) = (10\cos t, 10 \sin t, 90-5t)

a) Assuming that the child is at the top of the tower when she starts going down, we have that at the initial time (t=0) we will have the value of the height of the tower. That is z = 90-5*0 = 90 ft.

b) The child reaches the bottom as soon as z =0. We want to find the value of t that does that. Then we have 0 = 90-5t, which gives us t = 18 minutes.

c) Given the parametrization we are given, the velocity of the child at time t is given by \frac{d\gamma}{dt}= (\frac{d}{dt}(10\cos t), \frac{d}{dt} (10 \sin t ), \frac{d}{dt}(90-5t)) = (-10 \sin t, 10 \cos t, -5). The speed is defined as the norm of the velocity vector,

so, the speed at time t is given by v = \sqrt[]{(-10 \sin t)^2+(10 \cos t)^2+(-5)^2} = \sqrt[]{100(\sin^2 t + \cos^2 t)+25} = \sqrt[]{125}= 5 \sqrt[]{5}

d) ON the same fashion we want to know the norm of the second derivative of \gamma.

We have that \gamma ^{''}(t) =(-10\cost t, -10 \sin t , 0) so the acceleration is given by \sqrt[]{100(\cos^2 t+ \sin^2 t )} = 10

A teacher is interested in performing a hypothesis test to compare the mean math score of the girls and the mean math score of t
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

d. Two-sample t-test. There is no natural pairing between the two populations.

Step-by-step explanation:

A two-sample t - test is a test performed on the data of two random samples, each independently obtained from a different given population. The purpose of the test is to determine whether the difference between these two populations is statistically significant.

Independent samples are samples that do not affect one another. The mean math scores of the samples of boys and girls do not affect each other. They are independent samples, hence the correct test procedure is two - sample t - test
