6. A satellite camera takes a rectangular-shaped picture. The smallest region that can be photographed is a 4-km by 4-km rectangle. As the camera zooms out, the length l and width w of the rectangle increase at a rate of 3 km/sec. How long does it take for the area A to be at least 4 times its original size?
Original size- >4km*4km=16 km2
4 times its original size---------------4*(16km2)-----64 Km2----------- > 8 km by 8 Km
Therefore

A television station plans to ask a random sample of 400 city residents if they can name the news anchor on the evening news at

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

There is an 8.38% probability that the anchor will be fired.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each resident, there is only two possible outcomes. Either they can name the news anchor on the evening news at their station, or they cannot.

This means that the binomial probability distribution will be used in our solution.

However, we are working with samples that are considerably big. So i am going to aaproximate this binomial distribution to the normal.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

$E(X) = np$

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

$\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}$

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that $\mu = E(X), \sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}$ .

In this problem, we have that:

400 city residents are going to be asked. So $n = 400$ .

Suppose that in fact 12% of city residents could name the anchor if asked. This means that $p = 0.12$ .

So,

$\mu = E(X) = 400*0.12 = 48$

$\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{400*0.12*0.88} = 6.5$ .

They plan to fire the news anchor if fewer than 10% of the residents in the sample can do so.

What is the approximate probability that the anchor will be fired?

10% of the residents is 0.10*400 = 40 residents.

Fewer than 10% is 39 residents. So the probability that the anchor will be fired is the pvalue of Z when $X = 39$ .

So:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{39 - 48}{6.5}$

$Z = -1.38$

$Z = -1.38$ has a pvalue of 0.0838. This means that there is an 8.38% probability that the anchor will be fired.

Lelia says that 75% of a number will always be greater than 50% of a number. Complete the inequality to support Lelia's claim an

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Let 'x' and 'y' be two different numbers.

Leila says that 75% of a number will always be greater than 50% of a number. The inequality that represents this statement is the following:

0.75x > 0.5y

Let x = 100 and y=200. We have that:

0.75(100) > 0.5(200)

75 > 100 ❌ INCORRECT ❌

Given that we found a case in which 75% of a number is not greater than 50% of a number, we can conclude that Leila's claim is incorrect.

Last month the ending balance on Maryanne’s Mastercard was $1,789, the average daily balance was $755, and the monthly periodic

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information given we can calculate the finance charge of Maryanne’s by simply multiplying her average daily balance which is the amount of $755 times her monthly periodic rate which is 0.0185.

Hence, Maryanne's finance charge is calculated by using this formula

Finance charge=Average daily balance*Monthly periodic rate

Let plug in the formula

Finance charge= $755* 0.0185

Finance charge= $13.97

Therefore Maryanne's finance charge will be $13.97

A random draw is being designed for 210 participants. A single winner is to be chosen, and all the participants must have an equ

Over [174]

Answer: The correct number of balls is (b) 4.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that a single winner is to be chosen in a random draw designed for 210 participants. Also, there is an equal probability of winning for each participant.

We are using 10 balls, numbered through 0 to 9. We are to find the number of balls which needs to be picked up, regardless of order, so that each of the 210 participants can be assigned a unique set of numbers.

Let 'r' represents the number of balls to be picked up.

Since we are choosing from 10 balls, so we must have

$^{10}C_r=210.$
