The wages of 5 men and 6 boys amount to $114 per day. The wages of 7 men and 8 boys amount to $157 per day. Find the daily wages each man and each boy.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

let the wages of men and boys be x and y respectively

then

5x+6y = 114

7x + 8y = 157

multiplying equation first by  4 and second by three and subtracting equations

20x + 24y = 456

21x + 24y =471

-x = -15

x= 15 men wages

substituting value of x in equation

5x + 6y = 114

5*15 + 6y = 114

6y = 114 -75

6y = 39

y = 6.5 each boys wages

Suppose that the test score of a student taking the final of a probability course is a random variable with mean 76.

Required:
a. Give an upper bound for the probability that a student's test score will exceed 86. Suppose, in addition, that the professor knows that the variance of a student’s test score is equal to 25.
(b) What can be said about the probability that a student will score between 65 and 85?
c. How many students would have to take the examination to ensure, with probability at least .9, that the class average would be within 5 of 75? Do not use the central limit theorem.

Answers

Answer:

a. 0.8837

b. 0.6914

c. 10 student

Step-by-step explanation:

a. using markov's inequality; P(u >= X)<= E(u) / X

   mean u = 76

   X, test score = 86

= 76 / 86 = 0.8837

b. variance v = 25

   The test is between 65 and 85 P(65 <= X <= 85);

   P(|65 - X|<= |X - u| <= |85 - X|) = P(65 - 76 <= |X - u| <= 85 -76)

   = P(-11 <= |X - u| <= 9)

   = P(|X - u| <= 9)

using the chebyshev's inequality;

P(|X - u| <= 9) = 1 - variance / (standard deviation of individual test score)^2

   = 1 - 25/ 9^2

   = 1 - 25/81 = 1 - 0.3086 = 0.6914

c. P(|X - 76| <= 5) = 0.9

still using chebyshev's inequality;

= 1 - variance / lower limit^2 (E)

where E = 1 - 0.9 = 0.1

lower limit = 5

= 1 - 25/ 5^2 (0.1) = 10

What is the solution set for 2x – (x + 5) < 3x – 9 ?

Answers

Answer:

x > 2

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 5 < 3x - 9

x - 5 + 5 < 3x - 9 + 5

x < 3x - 4

x - 3x < 3x - 4 - 3x

-2x < -4

(-2x)(-1) > (-4)(-1)

2x > 4

2x/2 > 4/2

x > 2

Answer:

x > 2.

The solution in interval notation is (2, ∞).

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - (x + 5) < 3x - 9

2x - x - 5 < 3x - 9

2x - x - 3x < -9 + 5

-2x < -4

Divide both sides by -2

x > 2    (Note that the sign flips because we are dividing by a negative)

i need a graph of 10x+6y=150

Answers

Rearrange the equation to get it into slope intercept form:

10x+6y=150

6y=-10x+150

y=-5/3x+25

The slope is -5/3, the y-intercept is 25. Graph below:

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

10x + 6y = 150

To graph the line easily, find x-intercept and y-intercept and connect those points with a line, that will be a graph you need.

x-intercept is the coordinate of x when y = 0

10x + 6*0 = 15010x = 150x = 15

y-intercept is the coordinate of y when x = 0

10*0 + 6y = 1506y = 150y = 25

We have now required points:

(0, 25) and (15, 0)

A person invests 4000 dollars in a bank. The bank pays 6.25% interest compounded
annually. To the nearest tenth of a year, how long must the person leave the money
in the bank until it reaches 9600 dollars?

Answers

Answer:

14.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Principal = 4000

Interest (r) = 6.25% compounded annually

Calculate time, t, if final amount A = 9600

Using the compound interest formula :

A = P(1 + r/n)^n*t

A = final amount

n = number of times interest is applied per period

9600 = 4000(1 + 0.0625)^t

9600 = 4000(1.0625)^t

9600/4000 = 1.0625^t

2.4 = 1.0625^t

Take the log of both sides

0.3802112 = 0.0263289t

t = 0.3802112/0.0263289

t = 14.440811

t = 14.4 ( nearest tenth)

f(x, y) = xy; 4x2 + y2 = 8

Answers

Answer: minimum value of f = -2  and maximum value  of f = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

f(x, y) = xy; 4x² + y² = 8

S(x,y) = xy + λ(4x² + y² - 8)

dS/dλ = 4x² + y² - 8 = 0

dS/dx = y + 8λx = 0 -> y = -8λx  

dS/dy = x + 2yλ = 0 -> x + 2λ(-8λx) = x(1 - 16λ²) = x(1-4λ)(1+4λ) = 0

-> x = 0 , λ = 1/4 , λ = -1/4

x = 0 -> y = 0 -> it doesn't satisfy 4x² + y² = 8

λ = 1/4 -> y = -8λx = -2x -> 4x² + y² = 8x² = 8 -> x = -1 , 1 -> y = 2 , -2

λ = -1/4 -> y = -8λx = 2x -> 4x² + y² = 8x² = 8 -> x = -1 , 1 -> y = -2 , 2

we have 4 critical points:

(-1, 2) -> f = -2

(1, 2) -> f = 2

(-1, -2) -> f = 2

(1 , -2) -> f = -2  

Therefore; minimum value of f = -2  and maximum value  of f = 2

Mandy's approval based on her debt - to - income ratio is;

C: Not likely, recurring debt is higher than what is allowed.

What is Debt to income ratio?

Debt to income ratio is simply the percentage of your gross monthly income that goes to paying your monthly debt payments.

Now, her annual salary is $37,580. This means that her monthly income is; 37580/12 = $3131.67

Her monthly debt servicing = $265 + $120 =$385

Using the 28/36 ratio, the maximum allowable recurring debt for someone with a monthly income of $3,200 is $256.

Since her recurring monthly debt is $385 it is more than the maximum recurrent limit and so her home loan will not be approved.
