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)

A web-based company has a goal of processing 90 percent of its orders on the same day they are received. If 434 out of the next
Kamila [148]

Answer:

We conclude that a web-based company are not exceeding their goal of 90%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a web-based company has a goal of processing 90 percent of its orders on the same day they are received.

434 out of the next 471 orders are processed on the same day.

Let p = <u><em>proportion of orders processing on the same day they are received.</em></u>

SO, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : p \leq 0.90     {means that they are not exceeding their goal of 90%}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_0 : p > 0.90      {means that they are exceeding their goal of 90%}

The test statistics that would be used here <u>One-sample z test for</u> <u>proportions</u>;

                            T.S. =  \frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \hat p = sample proportion of orders that are processed on the same day = \frac{434}{471} = 0.92

           n = sample of orders = 471

So, <u><em>the test statistics</em></u>  =  \frac{0.92-0.90}{\sqrt{\frac{0.92(1-0.92)}{471} } }

                                     =  1.599

The value of z test statistics is 1.599.

<u>Now, at 0.025 significance level the z table gives critical value of 1.96 for right-tailed test.</u>

Since our test statistic is less than the critical value of z as 1.599 < 1.96, so we have insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will not fall in the rejection region due to which <u><em>we fail to reject our null hypothesis</em></u>.

Therefore, we conclude that a web-based company are not exceeding their goal of 90%.

A number is written with the following factorization 2x2x2x4x5. Is this factorization is prime factorization? Explain why or why
Ulleksa [173]
The number 2*2*2*4*5 is not in its prime factorization because not all the factors are prime numbers. A prime number is a number that has no other factors except for 1 and itself.
4 is not a prime number, since it can be divided by 2. The number can be broken down into its prime factors by dividing by 2, and it becomes 2*2.

Therefore, the factorization of the number 2*2*2*4*5 can be broken down to 2*2*2*2*2*5.
