Please help me with this problem
Answer:
Since the taxis are heading directly towards each other, we will assume the path between them to be a straight line
We have 2 taxis coming towards each other, which means that we have 2 observers in this system
so from now on, we will see this situation from the eyes of the driver coming at the speed of 40mph
Now imagine yourself in a car. if you are in a moving car, a tree outside will look like it is moving in the opposite direction and it will be doing so at the same speed as the speed of your car and we will always feel like we are at rest
so, we can say that when we are in a car, the objects coming towards us will have our car's velocity added to their velocity, as in the above case, the speed of the tree is 0mph and your speed is v mph, which causes the tree to move back at a velocity of v mph
Now, back to the question. we are in a car moving at a speed of 40 mph and there is a car coming towards us is moving at a speed of 27 mph
If we look at the situation from the eyes of the driver of the car moving at a velocity 40 mph,
he is at rest and the other car is moving at a velocity of (40 + 27) = 67 mph
So, from the frame of reference of the 40mph driver, the other car is moving at 67 mph and the time taken by a car moving at 67 mph to cover 7 miles is the time in which the taxis will meet
Hence, time taken by a 67 mph car to cover 7 miles
time = distance / speed
time = 7 / 67
time = 0.1 hour (approx) or 6 minutes
Therefore, the taxis will meet after 6 minutes
According to researchers at Dan Jones & Associates, 1 in every 3 women has been a victim of domestic abuse (Domestic Violence: Incidence and Prevalence Study, Sept.–Dec., 2005). However, many experts on domestic violence believe that the proportion of women who are domestically abused is closer to p = .10. Compare the probability of observing 4 or more abused women in a sample of 15 if p = 1/3 and the probability of observing 4 or more abused women in a sample of 15 if p = .10. The results will lead us to believe that p=1/3 or p=.1? Group of answer choices p=1/3 p=.1
Answer:
A) 79.08%
B) 5.55%
C)p = 1/3 is more appropriate than p = 0.1
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a binomial probability distribution problem, so we will use the formula;
P(k) = (n!/(k!(n - k)!) × p^(k) × (1 - p)^(n-k)
We want to Compare the probability of observing 4 or more abused women in a sample of 15 if p = 1/3 = 0.3333 and the probability of observing 4 or more abused women in a sample of 15 if p = 0.10
Thus;
P(X ≥ 4) = P(4) + P(5) + P(6) + P(7) + P(8) + P(9) + P(10) + (P(11) + P(12) + P(13) + P(14) + P(15)
A) Thus at p = 0.3333;
P(4) = (15!/(4!(15 - 4)!) × 0.3333^(4) × (1 - 0.3333)^(15-4) = 0.1949
P(5) = (15!/(5!(15 - 5)!) × 0.3333^(5) × (1 - 0.3333)^(15-5) = 0.2143
Using online binomial probability calculator we can get the remaining values which are;
P(6) = 0.1786
P(7) = 0.1148
P(8) = 0.0574
P(9) = 0.0223
P(10) = 0.0067
P(11) = 0.0015
P(12) = 0.0003
P(13) = 0.0000
P(14) = 0.0000
P(15) = 0.0000
Thus;
P(X ≥ 4) = 0.1949 + 0.2143 + 0.1786 + 0.1148 + 0.0574 + 0.0223 + 0.0067 + 0.0015 + 0.0003 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 0.7908 = 79.08%
B) Now,for p = 0.1 and Using online binomial probability calculator, we have;
P(4) = 0.0428
P(5) = 0.0105
P(6) = 0.0019
P(7) = 0.0003
P(8) = 0.0000
P(9) = 0.0000
P(10) = 0.0000
P(11) = 0.0000
P(12) = 0.0000
P(13) = 0.0000
P(14) = 0.0000
P(15) = 0.0000
P(X ≥ 4) = 0.0428 + 0.0105 + 0.0019 + 0.0003 + 0.0000 + 0.0000 + 0.0000 + 0.0000 + 0.0000 + 0.0000 + 0.0000 + 0.0000 = 0.0555 = 5.55%
C) Comparing both Probabilities, 79.08% is far higher than 5.55%. Thus we can say that p = 1/3 is more appropriate than p = 0.1

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
in a triangle, the sum of all angles is 180 (angle sum theorem). so use the equation 180=50+80+10x. then solve
1. combine like terms
it becomes 180=130+10x
2. subtract 130 from both sides
it becomes 50=10x
3. divide both sides by 10
it becomes 5=x
so, x=5
hope this helped :)

Confidence Interval Application Many people feel that the drying of pavement marking paint is much too slow. You spend several days looking for the fastest drying paint you can find; you plan to measure the time (in seconds) for this paint to dry. From information provided by the paint supplier, you believe the time to dry is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 4 seconds. How many paint samples would you need to test to be able to obtain an estimate of paint drying time that is within 1.5 seconds of the actual mean drying time with a probability of 97%
Answer:
The sample size is [tex]n =33[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The margin of error is E = 1.5 seconds
The standard deviation is s = 4 seconds
Given that the confidence level is 97% then the level of significance is mathematically represented as
[tex]\alpha =( 100 -97)\%[/tex]
=> [tex]\alpha = 0.03[/tex]
Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is
[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 2.17[/tex]
Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as
[tex]n =[ \frac{Z_{\frac{\sigma }{2 } } * \sigma }{E} ]^2[/tex]
=> [tex]n =[ \frac{2.17 * 4 }{1.5} ]^2[/tex]
=> [tex]n =33[/tex]

Answer:
8+y
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum means that you are adding the constant 8 and the variable y.
Hope this helps!!
Answer:
8 + y
Step-by-step explanation:
"sum" means you are performing addition or adding two quantities/values together
Therefore, the "sum" of "8 and y" is just adding 8 and y together
You just put a plus sign between 8 and y to add them together, so you get 8 + y.

There are five wires which need to be attached to a circuit board. A robotic device will attach the wires. The wires can be attached in any order, and the production manager wishes to determine which order would be fastest for the robot to use. Use the multiplication rule of counting to determine the number of possible sequences of assembly that must be tested. (Hint: There are five choices for the first wire, four for the second wire, three for the third wire, etc.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through (0, 1) and is perpendicular to the line whose equation is y = 2x? Ay= -2x + 1 B y = 2x + 1 C y = x + 1 Dy=-%2x + 1
Answer:
y= -1/2 x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The line passes through point (0, 1) and is perpendicular to line with equation :
y=2x
Perpendicular lines are those that give -1 when the product of their slopes is calculated.
This means m₁ *m₂= -1
In this case, m₁=2, finding m₂ as;
m₁ * m₂ = -1
2 * m₂ = -1
m₂ = -1/2
Using point (0, 1),m₂ = -1/2, and imaginary line (x, y) then the equation of the line in slope-intercept form y= mx + b will be;
-1/2 = y-1/x-0
-1/2 x = y-1
1-1/2x = y
The equation will be ;
y= -1/2 x + 1
