Answer:

A. The mean age of the ten people at a party is:  34.2

B. The standard deviation is: 10.3066

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a information about the age of ten people as:

        Age(in years)              Number of people

              30                                  5

              32                                  3

               31                                   1

               65                                  1

Hence, the mean of the age is calculated as:

Mean(x')=\dfrac{30\times 5+32\times 2+31+65}{10}\\\\\\Mean(x')=\dfrac{342}{10}\\\\\\Mean(x')=34.2

Now, we calculate the standard deviation in the following steps:

           x             x-x'           (x-x')²

          30           -4.2          17.64

          30           -4.2          17.64  

          30           -4.2          17.64

          30           -4.2          17.64

          30           -4.2          17.64

           32         -2.2            5.06

           32         -2.2            5.06

           32         -2.2            5.06

           31           -3.2           10.24

           65          30.8          948.64

∑ (x-x')²=  1062.26

Variance=∑ (x-x')²/10=106.226

Hence, standard deviation is the square root of variance.

standard deviation is:

=\sqrt{106.226}=10.3066

Which translation maps the vertex of the graph of the function f(x) = x2 onto the vertex of the function g(x) = x2 – 10x +2?
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

  • <em>The translation that maps the vertex of the graph of the function f(x) = x² onto the vertex of the function g(x) = x² - 10x + 2 is </em><u>5 units to the right and 23 units down.</u>

Explanation:

<u>1) </u><u>Vertex form</u><u> of the function that represents a parabola.</u>

The general form of a quadratic equation is Ax² + Bx + C = 0, where A ≠ 0, and B and C may be any real number. And the graph of such equation is a parabola with a minimum or maximum value at its vertex.

The vertex form of the graph of such function is: A(x - h)² + k

Where, A a a stretching factor (in the case |A| > 1) or compression  factor (in the case |A| < 1) factor.

<u>2) Find the vertex of the first function, f(x) = x²</u>

This is the parent function, for which, by simple inspection, you can tell h = 0 and k = 0, i.e. the vertex of f(x) = x² is (0,0).

<u>3) Find teh vertex of the second function, g(x) = x² -10x + 2</u>

The method is transforming the form of the function by completing squares:

  • Subtract 2 from both sides: g(x) - 2 = x² - 10x

  • Add the square of half of the coefficient of x (5² = 25) to both sides: g(x) - 2 + 25 = x² - 10x + 25

  • Simplify the left side and factor the right side: g(x) + 23 = (x - 5)²

  • Subtract 23 from both sides: g(x) = (x - 5)² - 23

That is the searched vertex form: g(x) = (x - 5)² - 23.

From that, using the rules of translation you can conclude immediately that the function f(x) was translated 5 units horizontally to the right and 23 units vertically downward.

Also, by comparison with the verex form A(x - h)² + k, you can conclude that the vertex of g(x) is (5, -23), and that means that the vertex (0,0)  was translated 5 units to the right and 23 units downward.

cuboid of length 24cm and volume 768cm^3 the width and hight are not equal.give a pair of possible values for their length.​
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Possible values of dimensions are (24,16,2) or (24,8,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the volume of the Cuboid and length . We are required to find the possible values of width and height from this information.

Let us say that the width is x and height is y

Length = 24

Volume of a cuboid = length * width * height

Volume = 768

768=24*x*y

xy=\frac{768}{24}\\xy=32\\

xy=32

Now the possible factors of 32

32=1*32 ( Which shall not be taken into consideration as length is already given as 24 and width or height can  not be more length)

32=2*16

32=4*8

Hence the possible values width are 8, 16 and that of height 4 and 2

Hence the possible values of dimensions are (24,16,2) or (24,8,4)

The function f is continuous son the interval [2, 10] with some of its values given in the table below. Use a right Riemann Sum
Marta_Voda [28]

The 4 subintervals are given: [2, 4], [4, 7], [7, 9], and [9, 10].

Each subinterval has length: 4 - 2 = 2, 7 - 4 = 3, 9 - 7 = 2, and 10 - 9 = 1.

Over each subinterval, we take the value of the function at the right endpoint: 3, 8, 15, and 18.

Then the integral is approximately

\displaystyle\int_2^{10}f(x)\,\mathrm dx\approx3\cdot2+8\cdot3+15\cdot2+18\cdot1=78

so 78.0 is the correct answer.

3.30 Survey response rate. Pew Research reported in 2012 that the typical response rate to their surveys is only 9%. If for a pa
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

0% probability that at least 1,500 will agree to respond

Step-by-step explanation:

I am going to use the binomial approximation to the normal to solve this question.

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:

n = 15000, p = 0.09

So

\mu = E(X) = np = 15000*0.09 = 1350

\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{15000*0.09*0.91} = 35.05

What is the probability that at least 1,500 will agree to respond

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 1500-1 = 1499. So

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

Z = \frac{1499 - 1350}{35.05}

Z = 4.25

Z = 4.25 has a pvalue of 1.

1 - 1 = 0

0% probability that at least 1,500 will agree to respond

Write three to five sentences explaining which levels of production provide Alonzo’s Cycling with the maximum profit.
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

The maximum profit can be attained when 4 bikes are produced each day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the attached picture:

In the table given in the picture,  the number of bikes produces varies. We cannot properly compare the profits per day. To be consistent, let us determine the profit per unit of bike produced.The relationship between cost, revenue and profit can be as:

Profit = Revenue - Cost

To find the profit per unit of bike, simply divide the profit with the number of bikes produced (1st column). After you see the results, we can see that the highest profit is $17.5 per unit of bike produced. Therefore, the maximum profit can be attained when 4 bikes are produced each day.
