Answers

According to the histogram, it is found that about 10% of the students took less than 40 minutes to complete the exam.

What is an histogram?

An histogram is a graph that shows the number of times each element of x was observed.

In this problem, out of a total of 29 students, the histogram states that:

1 student finished the exam in less than 10 minutes.2 students finished the exam in between 30 and 40 minutes.

...

12 students took between 70 and 80 minutes to finish the exam.

10% of 29 is given by:

0.1 x 29 = 2.9.

About 10% of 29 is of 3, hence, since 1 + 2 = 3, about 10% of the students took less than 40 minutes to complete the exam.

A store owner wants to survey customers about the products he sells. He programs the computer to select 100 customers from the mailing list and sends them each a survey.

(I'm torn on this one because on one hand, he's only selecting customers from his mailing list which makes me think biased, on the other he is using the computer to randomly select them so that seems fair.

Question content area bottom
Part 1
Washington had enter your response here
hits. Sanchez had enter your response here
hits.

Answers

Answer:

denote the number of hits that sanchez had with since washington had 18 more hits than sanchez we can say that washington had + 18 hits.

since the total number of hits is 308 we can write

+ ( + 18) = 308.

This is an equation for finding .

2 + 18 = 308

2 = 290

= 145.

so sanchez had 145 hits.

to find the number of hits by washington add 18:

+ 18 = 145 + 18 = 163.

Answer: sanchez had 145 hits and washington had 163 hits.

[tex] \sin {}^{2} (\theta) + \cos {}^{2} (\theta) = 1[/tex]

ty !​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation

There are many ways to prove this identity. But, I will use the simplest one. If you have a right triangle, the length of the horizontal side is x, the length of the vertical side is y, and the hypotenuse is r. So, the relation between x and r can be written in cosine form:

[tex]\cos\theta=\frac{x}{r}[/tex]

The relation between y and r can be written in sine form:

[tex]\sin\theta=\frac{y}{r}[/tex]

Pythagoras told you that for the right triangle [tex]x^{2}+y^{2}=r^{2}[/tex] should be satisfied. Substitute x and y from the cosine and sine form:

[tex](r\cos\theta)^{2}+(r\sin\theta)^{2}=r^{2}[/tex]

[tex]r^{2}\cos^{2}\theta+r^{2}\sin^{2}\theta =r^{2}[/tex]

the square of r will cancel out, and you can get your identity:

[tex]\cos^{2}\theta+\sin^{2}\theta=1[/tex]

If 81 is added to a number, the result is 39 less than three times the number. Find the number.

Answers

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

The number is represented as x.

81 is added to a number is

81 + x

39 less than three times the number

3x - 39

So

81 + x = 3x - 39

Solve for x.

81 + x = 3x - 39 Add 39 to each side so 39 cancels on the right.

81 + x + 39 = 3x - 39 + 39

81 + x + 39 = 3x

81 + 39 + x = 3x

120 + x = 3x Subtract x from each side.

120 + x - x = 3x - x

120 = 3x - x

120 = 2x    Divide each side by 2

120/2 = 2x/2

120/2 = x

Alvin is 15 years younger than Elga. The sum of their ages is 45. What is Elga's age?

Answers

Answer:

Elga is 30 and Alvin is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

45-15=30

30-15=15

30+15=45

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\text{Alvin = 15, Elga = 30}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find Alvin and Elgas age, we can use a system of equations.

Let us assume that [tex]a[/tex] represents Alvin's age and [tex]e[/tex] represents Elgas age.

We can create two equations:

[tex]a = e-15[/tex]

[tex]a+e=45[/tex]

We can now use substitution to find each value. Let's substitute [tex]a = e-15[/tex] into [tex]a+e=45[/tex] as a.

[tex](e - 15) + e = 45[/tex]

We can now simplify this equation and solve for e.

[tex]2e-15 = 45\\2e = 60\\e = 30[/tex]

So we know that Elga is 30 years old. To find Alvin's age, we can substitute the value of e (30) back into one of the equations. Let's do it for [tex]a+e=45[/tex].

[tex]a + 30 = 45\\a = 45-30\\a=15[/tex]

So Elga is 30 years old and Alvin is 15 years old.

at a 911 call center, calls come in at an average rate of one call every two minutes. assume that the time that elapses from one call to the next has the exponential distribution. Find the probability after a call is received, it takes more than 3 minutes for the next call to occur.

Answers

Using the exponential distribution, it is found that there is a 0.2231 = 22.31% probability after a call is received, it takes more than 3 minutes for the next call to occur.

What is the exponential distribution?

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:

[tex]f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

In which [tex]\mu = \frac{1}{m}[/tex] is the decay parameter.

The probability of finding a value higher than x is:

[tex]P(X > x) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

In this problem, the mean is of two minutes, hence the decay parameter is given by:

[tex]\mu = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5[/tex]

The probability that it takes more than 3 minutes for the next call to occur is given by:

[tex]P(X > 3) = e^{-0.5 \times 3} = 0.2231[/tex]

0.2231 = 22.31% probability after a call is received, it takes more than 3 minutes for the next call to occur.

P(exactly 4) = 4/12 = 1/3 = 0.3333...

B)

At least 4

4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12

So there are 9 choices (4 .. 12) of those who could like oatmeal cookies the best.

There are at most 3 people who could like oatmeal cookies the best.

1/2x - (1/2 * 4) = 5             - Distribute

1/2x - 2 = 5                       - Multiply 1/2 by 4

1/2x = 7                             - Add 2 to both sides of the equation

Jan doubled her starting number, added 5, subtract 7, divided by 3, then squared the result. If her final answer was 36, what was her starting number?

(Answer due at 12:00 pm PDT)

Answers

Answer: I think its 39

Step-by-step explanation: I did the math

Jan's starting number was 10.

What are Numbers?

A number is an arithmetic value used for representing the quantity and used in making calculations.

Given that Jan doubled her starting number, added 5, subtract 7, divided by 3, then squared the result.

Let her original number be x

Therefore, {(2x +5 - 7)/3}² = 36

{(2x -2)/3}² = 36

(2x -2)/3 = 6

2x - 2 = 18

2x = 20

x = 10

Hence, Jan's starting number was 10.
