Answers

Answer 1

With 90% confidence, the mean time it takes to run 1 mile for all high school track athletes is between 5.4 and 7.0 minutes.

We have a 90% confidence interval of 6.2 ± 0.8 minutes for the mean time it takes high school track athletes to run 1 mile.

A conclusion based on this information is to be given. A 90% confidence interval implies that if we were to take a large number of samples from the same population, we would expect that 90% of the intervals produced would include the true population mean.

When constructing confidence intervals, there are two components to consider: the interval itself and the level of confidence. The interval refers to the range of values that we are reasonably certain that the true value of the population parameter lies in, while the confidence level indicates the probability that the true population parameter falls within that range.

We can conclude that we are 90% confident that the true population mean of the time it takes high school track athletes to run 1 mile falls within the interval of 6.2 ± 0.8 minutes, that is, between 5.4 and 7.0 minutes.

Since the interval does not include 6 minutes, we can not conclude that the true population mean of the time it takes high school track athletes to run 1 mile is 6 minutes.

However, we can state with 90% confidence that it falls somewhere within the interval of 5.4 to 7.0 minutes.

The conclusion is that with 90% confidence, the mean time it takes to run 1 mile for all high school track athletes is between 5.4 and 7.0 minutes.

Determine whether the triangles can be proved similar. If they are similar, write a similarity statement. If they are not similar, explain why.

Answers

Answer:

They are similar.  Triangle abc is similar to triangle edc.

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove that triangles are similar, you must show that the 3 angles in one triangle are equal to the 3 angles in the other triangle.  We know that they both have a 50 degree angle.  We can also see that they both have a right angle.  That means that the 3rd angle must also equal 40 (180-90-50).  So by AAA the two triangles are congruent.

Answers

The probability that the meeting takes place is 7/24.

What is the probability?

Probability is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes of an event to the total number of possible outcomes(sample space) of the event.

It is given by

P(A) = n(A)/n(S)

Where A - event, S - sample space

Calculation:

From the given data,

The probability, if the engineers arrive in the first hour and the boss arrives in the second hour is 1/8,

So, the meeting will be held i.e., p = 1.

The probability, if all the three arrive in the same hour (first or second)

= 1/8 + 1/8

= 1/4

So, the meeting will be held only if the boss (he may arrive first, second, or last) arrives last, the probability is 1/3

The probability, if one of the engineers arrives in the first hour while the other engineer and the boss arrive in the second hour is

= 1/4

So, the meeting will be held only if the second engineer arrives before the boss and before the first engineer leaves, the probability is 1/3

Thus, the final probability for the meeting to take place is

= (1/8) × 1 + (1/4) × (1/3) + (1/4) × (1/3)

= 7/24

Therefore, the required probability is 7/24.

If the value of a is 7, b is 14 in the rhombus then the perimeter of the rhombus is equal to 31.3 units.

Given that the value of a is 7,b is 14.

We are required to find the perimeter of the rhombus.

The values which are given to us are of the lengths of diagonals of rhombus.

Perimeter of the rhombus is equal to 4 times the side of the rhombus. So in order to find the perimeter of the rhombus we need the side of the rhombus not the diagonals.

When we draw the diagonals in the rhombus it forms four right angled triangle in which the Base is equal to 7/2 units and 7 is the perpendicular.

We have to use pythagoras theorem to find the hypotenuse which is the side of the rhombus.

Suppose base is BC , perpendicular is AB and hypotenuse is AC.

AC=[tex]\sqrt{7^{2} +7/2^{2} }[/tex]

Is it possible to make a number out of 8 different digits that is
divisible by each of the eight digits?

Answers

Answer:

  1,123,449,768

Step-by-step explanation:

The smallest number composed from 8 different digits that is divisible by each of those digits appears to be the 10-digit number ...

  1,123,449,768

Restrictions

If the number is to be divisible by an even digit, it must be even. That means it cannot end in the digit 5, so 5 cannot be one of the digits. We disallow division by 0, so 0 cannot be one of the digits.

The remaining 8 digits total 40, so cannot form a number divisible by 3, 6, or 9. In order to make such a number, we must add 5 to the digit total, but cannot do so using the single digit 5.

Choices for added digits include {1, 4} and {2, 3}. Adding 9+5 = 14 to the digit total would also work but would guarantee the resulting number is not the minimum possible.

Further divisibility restrictions

The digits we have to work with are now {1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 6, 7, 8. 9}. We know that an even number constructed from these digits will be divisible by 1, 2, 3, 6, and 9. To make it divisible by 4, 7, and 8, it must be a multiple of the LCM of those numbers.

The least possible number will use the smallest digits first, so will start ...

  112344...

The remaining digits, 6, 7, 8, 9, need to form a number that will be divisible by 56 when appended to the 6 digits already used. Those 6 digits form a number, 1123440000, that has a remainder of 32 when divided by 56. Hence we need to use the digits 6, 7, 8, 9 to make a number with a remainder of 24 when divided by 56. There are 24 permutations of the digits 6, 7, 8, 9. Half of these are odd numbers

The one number formed from digits 6, 7, 8, 9 that is divisible by 56 with a remainder of 24 is 9768.

Smallest Number

The smallest number comprised of 8 different digits and divisible by each of them is the 10-digit number 1,123,449,768.

taut belt around the two pulleys

Answers

The length of the belt around the two pulleys is approximately 49.2 centimeters.

How to determine the length of the belt around the two pulleys?

In this question we must determine the perimeter of a belt around two pulleys, whose centers are 10 centimeters apart. This perimeter is the sum of part of the circumference of small pulley, part of the circumference of the big pulley and two times the segment tangent to the two pulleys.

Now we proceed to determine the parts of the perimeter of the belt:

Big pulley

s' = (214.92° / 180°) · π · (6 cm)

s' ≈ 22.506 cm

Small pulley

s'' = (145.08° / 180°) · π · (3 cm)

s'' ≈ 7.596 cm

Tangent segments

l = (10 cm) · sin 72.54°

l ≈ 9.539 cm

Lastly, the perimeter of the belt is:

L = s' + s'' + 2 · l      (1)

L = 22.506 cm + 7.596 cm + 2 · (9.539 cm)

L = 49.180 cm

Triangles EDC and EAB are similar since they have congruent angles:

Answers

Answer:

53

Step-by-step explanation:

Let yazid's score be x

x + x + 17 + 2x = 161

4x + 17 = 161

4x = 144

x = 36

jack = x + 17

jack = 53

Answer:

Jack:  36

Bonus:  Yazid:  53 and Susan:  72

Step-by-step explanation:

Let J, Y, and K stand for Jack, Yazin, Susan's scores.

We are told that:

J = Y + 17  [Jack scored 17 marks more than Yazid]

S = 2Y  [Susan scored twice Yazid's score]

J + Y + S = 161  [total score is 161]

Substitute the first two expressions into the last equation:

J + Y + S = 161

(Y+17) + Y + (2Y) = 161

4Y = 144

Y = 36

Use Y = 36 to find the other scores:

J = Y + 17

J = 36 + 17

J = 53

S = 2Y

S = 2*(36)

S = 72

A car can travel 161 miles on 7 gallons of gas. how much gas will it need to go 368 miles?

Answers

Answer:

16 gallons of gas

Step-by-step explanation:

Two ways to answer this

1:

Find how many miles per gallon the car can go. Then, divide the amount the car needs to go with the miles per gallon. This gets you the gallons of gas needed to go the amount. In this case, 161 ÷ 7 = 23. 368 ÷ 23 = 16.

2:

Make a proportion. [tex]\frac{161}{7} = \frac{368}{x}[/tex]. Solve for x. 161 and 7 cancel out to get 23. [tex]\frac{23}{1} = \frac{368}{x}[/tex]. Now you can either divide 368 and 23 and multiply the quotient by 1 to get x, or you can cross multiply to get an equation you can solve. In the first case, 368 ÷ 23=16. 1*16=16. x=16. In the second case, 23x=368. Divide both sides by 23 and you get x = 16.

It takes 5.24 cubic centimeters of molten steel to make ball bearings that each have a diameter of 1 centimeter.

Radius = 1/2 = 0.5 cm

volume V of one ball bearing is: V=(4/3)*π*r³

= 4/3 * π * (0.5)³

=0.524 cm³

In order to find number of ball bearings out of molten steel only if we divide the volume of steel by the volume of the ball bearing

5.24/0.524=10.

Hence, using volume of ball bearings, a manufacturer makes 10 ball bearings from 5.2 cm³ of molten steel to make ball bearings that each have a diameter of 1 centimeter.

Which of the following is a perfect square trinomial?
a. x^2+10x+25
b. x^2+6x+13
c. x^2+100
d. x^2+3x+9

Answers

Answer:

a. x² + 10x + 25

Step-by-step explanation:

because

(x + 5)² = (x + 5)(x + 5) = x² + 5x + 5x + 25 = x² + 10x + 25

so, it is a perfect square of (x + 5).

A DVD player costs $96.34, with sales tax included. What is the original price of the DVD player if the sales tax rate is 8.25%?

Answers

The original price of the DVD player if the sales tax rate is 8.25% is $88.79

Sales tax

Cost of DVD player including tax = $96.34Sales tax = 8.25%Original cost = 8.25%

Total cost = original cost + (sales tax × original cost

96.34 = x + (8.5% × x)

96.34 = x + (0.085 × x)

96.34 = x + 0.085x

96.34 = 1.085x

x = 96.34 / 1.085

x = 88.7926267281105

Approximately,

x = $88.79

Does ethical decision making get lost in the complexity of work?Reading to question response: The Management MindsetThe management mindset is a rational response to time stress. There are only twenty-four hours in a day and everything we chose to do, including our work, play, family obligations, social engagements, and spiritual development or reflection must fit into that fixed container. But what does the time stress do to create the management mindset through which we see our organizational landscapes as stages for performance, and concomitantly how does this stage impact behavior?Lengel and Larsen (2010) drew on Ray Bradburys science fiction classic Fahrenheit 451 to shed light on the impact of time stress. Bradbury envisioned a future world in which individual uniqueness was subordinated to a common governmental vision. Translating to our context, this was a future in which personal value systems would be subordinated to a collective value system. His underlying thesis was that by killing their spirit to lead, people could effectively be controlled. The desire to control is a central feature of the management mindset that we will address later. For now the interesting inference from Bradburys work is that this control can be accomplished by simply keeping people busy and denying them access to a time and place to just talk. His metaphor for this time and place was the front porch (Bradbury p. 56). Without front porches and under time pressure, people would behave in ways that might not be in their best personal or collective interests.Certainly the pace of change facing businesses today and the drive to do more with less is keeping people busy. The forty hour work week is a distant memory for most organizational leaders. In a real sense, business is busyness, so half of Bradburys formula for control is clearly in place. But what about the front porches? Lengel and Larsen (2010) visualized front porches as bridges linking individuals to their shared community or commons. Front porches represent a time and place where private interests could be weighed against public interests in a relaxed atmosphere where formal relationships and the stress of busyness were absent. On front porches, people could just sit down together on rocking chairs and offer an open invitation for neighbors passing by to join in conversation without agenda or purpose beyond just being togetherjust talking. Front porches provide a stage for individuals to explore their uniqueness and remember their roots and responsibilities, and their obligations to the greater community. This is the context for deep ethical/moral inquiry and self reflection that handicaps the tension between collective intentions and individual values and ethics. It is also the context for sourcing courage in leadership. In this way these porches are stages for Quadrant 4 exploration.What do front porches and the spirit to lead have to do with teaching ethics and developing ethical people? Organizations have both static and dynamic qualities (Lengel and Larsen 2010). The static qualities represent the objective reference frame that is created to facilitate communication and organizational learning. The dynamic qualities have been traditionally referred to as the emergent informal organization. Management work focuses on control and maintenance of the static qualities of organizations while leadership work is typically focused on the emergent dynamic embracing learning and innovation. The management mindset views that static organization as reality and the dynamic as an anomaly to be dampened or controlled. In contrast the leadership mindset views the dynamic organization as the natural state and the static as the anomaly. Effective leaders perform both management and leadership work. But busyness eliminates front porches, and it is on front porches that leadership work is performed. Therefore, the management mindset tends to dominate organizational life. when preparing a flexible budget, the level of activity blank______. ( Wildcat , Red Alert , Daniel R.
