Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) The probability that the student made the​ Dean's list is 0.1655.

(b) The probability that the student came from a private high school, given that the student made the Dean's list is 0.2411.

(c) The probability that the student was not home schooled, given that the student did not make the Dean's list is 0.9185.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

Of the entering class at a college, 71% attended public high school, 21% attended private high school, and 8% were home schooled. Of those who attended public high school, 16% made the Dean's list, 19% of those who attended private high school made the Dean's list, and 15% of those who were home schooled made the Dean's list.

a) Find the probability that the student made the Dean's list.

b) Find the probability that the student came from a private high school, given that the student made the Dean's list.

c) Find the probability that the student was not home schooled, given that the student did not make the Dean's list.

Solution:

Denote the events as follows:

A = a student attended public high school

B = a student attended private high school

C = a student was home schooled

D = a student made the Dean's list

The provided information is as follows:

P (A) = 0.71

P (B) = 0.21

P (C) = 0.08

P (D|A) = 0.16

P (D|B) = 0.19

P (D|C) = 0.15

(a)

The law of total probability states that:

[tex]P(X)=\sum\limits_{i} P(X|Y_{i})\cdot P(Y_{i})[/tex]

Compute the probability that the student made the​ Dean's list as follows:

[tex]P(D)=P(D|A)P(A)+P(D|B)P(B)+P(D|C)P(C)[/tex]

         [tex]=(0.16\times 0.71)+(0.19\times 0.21)+(0.15\times 0.08)\\=0.1136+0.0399+0.012\\=0.1655[/tex]

Thus, the probability that the student made the​ Dean's list is 0.1655.

(b)

Compute the probability that the student came from a private high school, given that the student made the Dean's list as follows:

[tex]P(B|D)=\frac{P(D|B)P(B)}{P(D)}[/tex]

             [tex]=\frac{0.21\times 0.19}{0.1655}\\\\=0.2410876\\\\\approx 0.2411[/tex]

Thus, the probability that the student came from a private high school, given that the student made the Dean's list is 0.2411.

(c)

Compute the probability that the student was not home schooled, given that the student did not make the Dean's list as follows:

[tex]P(C^{c}|D^{c})=1-P(C|D^{c})[/tex]

               [tex]=1-\frac{P(D^{c}|C)P(C)}{P(D^{c})}\\\\=1-\frac{(1-P(D|C))\times P(C)}{1-P(D)}\\\\=1-\frac{(1-0.15)\times 0.08}{(1-0.1655)}\\\\=1-0.0815\\\\=0.9185[/tex]

Thus, the probability that the student was not home schooled, given that the student did not make the Dean's list is 0.9185.

A floor is made up of 20 triangular tiles, each with sides 40 cm, 24 cm and 32 cm. Find the cost of polishing the floor at the rate of 2 rupees per sq.cm.​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]15360\,\,rupees[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let sides of the triangle be [tex]a,b,c[/tex]

[tex]a=40\,,\,b=24\,,\,c=32[/tex]

Semi-perimeter (s) = [tex]\frac{a+b+c}{2}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{40+24+32}{2}\\ =\frac{96}{2}\\=48[/tex]

Area of one tile [tex]=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}[/tex]

[tex]=\sqrt{48(48-40)(48-24)(48-32)}\\ =\sqrt{48(8)(24)(16)}\\ =\sqrt{147456} \\=384\,\,cm^2[/tex]

So,

Area of 20 tiles [tex]=20(384)=7680\,\,cm^2[/tex]

Cost of polishing the floor at the rate of 2 rupees per sq.cm = [tex]7680(2)=15360\,\,rupees[/tex]

In y intercept form, the equation would be: Y= -1/3x -6

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the equation, you can use any points given. In this case, I used (-6,-4) and (-3,-5).

With these points, you must find the slope. The change in our y values is -1 and the change in our x values is +3.

Now we have Y= -1/3x

To find the y intercept, you look on the graph for where there's a point that is lying on y line. In this case (0,-6) is lying on the y line. This means that the Y intercept for our equation is -6. Another example is (0,8), our y intercept would be 8 because the x value is 0!

In conclusion, our equation in y intercept form would be Y= -1/3x-6

Step-by-step explanation: 18.1x,4.7 and 1/6=Terms

The matched part with the respective appropriate description:

1) x and y → Variable(s)

2) 1/6 →  Constant(s)

3) 12.1, 4.7, and 6 →  Coefficient(s)

4) 12.1x and 6x →  Like Terms

5) 12.1x, 4.7y, and 1/6 →  Terms

What is an expression?

One mathematical expression makes up a term. It might be a single variable (a letter), a single number (positive or negative), or a number of variables multiplied but never added or subtracted. Variables in certain words have a number in front of them. A coefficient is the number used before a phrase.

We have the algebraic expression,

12.1x - 4.7y + 6x + 1/6.

From the definition,

x and y are the two variables.

And 12.1, 6 and -4.7 are the numbers in front of the variables.

So, 12.1, 6 and -4.7 are the coefficients.

And 1/6 is the constant.

So, 1) x and y → Variable(s)

2) 1/6 →  Constant(s)

3) 12.1, 4.7, and 6 →  Coefficient(s)

4) 12.1x and 6x →  Like Terms

5) 12.1x, 4.7y, and 1/6 →  Terms

Therefore, each part of the algebraic expression matched with its appropriate description.

Mary Jo takes her son to get a haircut at the barbershop. The total cost of the haircut is $12.60, including a 20% tip. How much was the haircut before the tip?

Answers

Based on the total cost of the haircut with the tip included, the cost of the haircut before the tip was $10.50

How to find the cost of the haircut?

The cost of the haircut give of $12.60 is merely the cost of the haircut including the 20% tip.

To find the cost of the haircut before the tip was included, assume that it is x. The relevant expression would then be:

Total cost including tip = x × (1 + tip percentage)

Solving for the haircut cost before the tip gives:

12.60 = x ( 1 + 20%)

12.60 = 1.20x

x = 12.60 / 1.20

x = $10.50

How do you determine what bn should be in a limit comparison test and a comparison test? When do you know that the series should use a limit comparison test or a comparison test to find if it is convergent/divergent? Examples would be greatly appreciated

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Pick a function that is the same "family".  It needs to be a function that you know diverges or converges.  So p-series and geometric series are common choices.  Often we make the numerators the same so that it's easy to compare.

For example, if you have an = 1 / (n − 1), you would choose bn = 1 / n.  Since n − 1 is less than n, we know an is greater than bn.  And since we know bn diverges, that means the larger function an also diverges.

Or, if you have an = 1 / (n + 1), we again choose bn = 1 / n.  However, comparison test is inconclusive here (an < bn, bn diverges), so we use limit comparison test instead.

lim(n→∞) an / bn

lim(n→∞) 1 / (n + 1) / (1 / n)

lim(n→∞) n / (n + 1)

1

The limit is greater than 0, and bn diverges, so an also diverges.

Let's try something more complicated.  Let's say an = e⁻ⁿ / (n + cos²n).  The numerator e⁻ⁿ is always less than 1, and the denominator is always greater than n.

If we again choose p-series bn = 1 / n, we know bn > an, and bn diverges, so comparison test is inconclusive.  Limit comparison test is possible, but tricky.

But, if we choose geometric series bn = e⁻ⁿ / 1, we know bn > an, and bn converges, so by comparison test, an converges as well.

We can try one more: an = (n² + 2) / (n⁴ + 5).  Let's choose bn = (n² + 2) / n⁴ = 1 / n² + 2 / n⁴.

The numerators are the same, but an has a larger denominator, so bn > an.  bn is the sum of two p-series which converge, so bn converges.  Therefore, an converges.

3x square - 6x + 3=0

Answers

Answer: 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to multiply 3 x 3 (9), because that's all 3 squared means.

Now the equation should be 9x-6x+3=0

Next we need to combine like terms. Do 9x - 6x which should give you 3x

Now your equations should be 3x+3=0

Now for the somewhat harder part...

Under the three (the one without the x) write -3 and under the zero write the same thing.  the +3-3 cancels out so just put a line or something across it.

0-3= -3

so now you should have...

3x=-3    ignore the 3x, at this point it's useless in getting the answer because it would cancel out.

-3 divided by -3  is 1 because a negative (-)  divided by a negative (-) equals a positive (+).

The answer should be  x = 1
