A machine called Feynman, produces output, that is 5 times its input followed by an increase of 2. Another machine called Maxwel

l, produces output, that is 5 times its input followed by a decrease of 2. The output of Feynman feeds into Maxwell. If Maxwell produces an output of 33, the input to Feynman must be:
(a). 1
(b). 31/5
(c). 41/25
(d). 21/25

<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option: a is the correct answer.

                (a)  1

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
  • Let the input of Feynman be denoted by  i and it's output be denoted by f.

              Now, it is given that:

Feynman, produces output, that is 5 times its input followed by an increase of 2.

i.e. the equation that will be formed using this information is:

                  f=5i+2------------(1)

  • Also, it is given that:

The output of Feynman feeds into Maxwell.

Let the output of Maxwell be denoted by m and it's input is f.

Maxwell, produces output, that is 5 times its input followed by a decrease of 2.

This means that the equation that will be formed using this information is:

             m=5f-2----------------(2)

Now, we put the value of f from equation (1) into equation (2)

i.e.

m=5(5i+2)-2\\\\i.e.\\\\m=25i+10-2\\\\i.e.\\\\m=25i+8

If the output of Maxwell is: 33

i.e.

m=33

Then

33=25i+8\\\\i.e.\\\\25i=33-8\\\\i.e.\\\\25i=25\\\\i.e.\\\\i=\dfrac{25}{25}\\\\i.e.\\\\i=1

Hence, the input of Feynman is: 1

Last year, 46% of business owners gave a holiday gift to their employees. A survey of business owners indicated that 35% plan to
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

a) Number = 60 *0.35=21

b) Since is a left tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(Z  

c) If we compare the p value obtained and using the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% the proportion of business owners providing holiday gifts had decreased from the 2008 level.  

We can use as smallest significance level 0.044 and we got the same conclusion.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

n=60 represent the random sample taken

X represent the business owners plan to provide a holiday gift to their employees

\hat p=0.35 estimated proportion of business owners plan to provide a holiday gift to their employees

p_o=0.46 is the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level

Confidence=95% or 0.95

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

p_v represent the p value (variable of interest)  

Part a

On this case w ejust need to multiply the value of th sample size by the proportion given like this:

Number = 60 *0.35=21

2) Part b

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the proportion of business owners providing holiday gifts had decreased from the 2008 level:  

Null hypothesis:p\geq 0.46  

Alternative hypothesis:p < 0.46  

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statisitc, and the is given by:  

z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}} (1)  

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion \hat p is significantly different from a hypothesized value p_o.

Calculate the statistic  

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:  

z=\frac{0.35 -0.46}{\sqrt{\frac{0.46(1-0.46)}{60}}}=-1.710  

Statistical decision  

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The significance level provided \alpha=0.05. The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a left tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(Z  

Part c

If we compare the p value obtained and using the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% the proportion of business owners providing holiday gifts had decreased from the 2008 level.  

We can use as smallest significance level 0.044 and we got the same conclusion.

A belt and a wallet cost $42 while 7 belts and 4 wallets cost $213. Calculate the cost of each item.
Fittoniya [83]
Let, the cost of a belt = x
cost of a wallet = y

Then, system of equations would be:
x + y = 42
7x + 4y = 213

Multiply 1st equation by 4, 
4x + 4y = 168
Substitute it from 2nd equation, 
3x = 45
x = 15

Now, substitute it in 1st equation, 
15 + y = 42
y = 42 - 15 = 27

In short, Belt costs $15 and wallet costs $27

Hope this helps!

v=324pi
324pi=9(basearea)
divide both sides by 9
