At least how many hours of daily TV watching are necessary for a person to be eligible for the interview? Carry your intermediate

Answers

Answer 1

According to the confidence interval only persons who watch at least 9.9 hours TV per day are eligible.

According to the statement

we have given that the mean of 7 hours per day watching TV, and a standard deviation of 1.8 hours.

And we have to find that the At least how many hours of daily TV watching are necessary for a person to be eligible for the interview.

So, For this purpose,

The confidence interval is is a range of estimates for an unknown parameter. A confidence interval is computed at a designated confidence level.

Let us Assume x is the amount of hours that 5% of the persons exceeds.

Then P(z<(x-7)/1.8) = 0.95

From a standard normal table, we know that:

(x-7)/1.8 = 1.6449

x-7 = 2.9607

x = 9.9607

So, According to the confidence interval only persons who watch at least 9.9 hours TV per day are eligible.

Solve for x and show your steps. Is the solution extraneous? Check your work to show how you determined if the solution is extraneous or not.

Square Root 3x+12 = 9

Answers

Answer:

  x = 23; not extraneous

Step-by-step explanation:

A solution is extraneous if it does not satisfy the original equation. Extraneous solutions can sometimes be introduced in the process of solving radical and rational function equations.

Solution

Squaring both sides of the given equation, we get ...

  √(3x +12) = 9

  3x +12 = 81 . . . . . . square both sides

  x +4 = 27 . . . . . . . divide by 3

  x = 23 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 4

Check

There is only one solution, and it satisfies the equation:

  √(3×23 +12) = √81 = 9

The solution x = 23 is not extraneous.

Given the vertex of a quadratic function, find the axis of symmetry.

Answers

(i) The equation of the axis of symmetry is x = - 5.

(ii) The coordinates of the vertex of the parabola are (h, k) = (4, - 18). The x-value of the vertex is 4.

(iii) According to the vertex form of the quadratic equation, the parabola opens down due to negative lead coefficient and has a vertex at (2, 4), which is a maximum.  

How to analyze and interpret quadratic functions

In this question we must find and infer characteristics from three cases of quadratic equations. (i) In this case we must find a formula of a axis of symmetry based on information about the vertex of the parabola. Such axis passes through the vertex. Hence, the equation of the axis of symmetry is x = - 5.

(ii) We need to transform the quadratic equation into its vertex form to determine the coordinates of the vertex by algebraic handling:

y = x² - 8 · x - 2

y + 18 = x² - 8 · x + 16

y + 18 = (x - 4)²

In a nutshell, the coordinates of the vertex of the parabola are (h, k) = (4, - 18). The x-value of the vertex is 4.

(iii) Now here we must apply a procedure similar to what was in used in part (ii):

y = - 2 · (x² - 4 · x + 2)

y - 4 = - 2 · (x² - 4 · x + 2) - 4

y - 4 = - 2 · (x² - 4 · x + 4)

y - 4 = - 2 · (x - 2)²

According to the vertex form of the quadratic equation, the parabola opens down due to negative lead coefficient and has a vertex at (2, 4), which is a maximum.

Tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) warn the driver when the tire pressure of the vehicle is 27% below the target pressure. Suppose the target tire pressure of a certain car is 32 psi (pounds per square inch.)

Answers

The psi that the TPMS would trigger a warning for this car is = 23.36 psi

Calculation of tire pressure

The target tire pressure of the car is = 32 psi (pounds per square inch.)

The Tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) warns the car below 27% of 32psi

That is , 27/100 × 32

The solution to the given expression is x = -20/11


What are logarithmic functions?

Logarithmic function are inverse of exponential functions. Given the equation below;

log (6 x + 10) = log 1/2 x

In order to determine the solution to the given logarithmic equation, we will first have to cancel the logarithm on both sides to have

6x + 10 = 1/2x

Collect the like terms

6x - 1/2x = 0 - 10

Find the LCD

12x-x/2 = -10
11x/2 = -10

Cross multiply

11x = -2 * 10

11x = -20

Divide both sides by 11

11x/11 = -20/11

x = -20/11

From the diagram below, if the tree is 34 ft. tall, and the angle of elevation from point B to the top of the tree is 26 °, find the distance that the tree is from point B. (Round to the nearest whole foot.)

Answers

Given the height of the tree and the angle of elevation from point B, the distance between the tree is from point B is approximately 70ft.

What is the distance between the tree and point B?

Given the data in the question;

Height of tree opposite angle of elevation = 34ftAngle of elevation θ = 26°Distance between tree and point B| Adjacent = ?

Since the scenario form a right angle triangle, we use trig ratio.

tanθ = Opposite / Adjacent

tan( 26° ) = 34ft / x

We solve for x
x = 34ft / tan( 26° )

x = 34ft / 0.4877

x = 70ft

Given the height of the tree and the angle of elevation from point B, the distance between the tree is from point B is approximately 70ft.

Solve the quadratic equations in questions 1 – 5 by factoring.

1. x2 – 49 = 0

2. 3x3 – 12x = 0

3. 12x2 + 14x + 12 = 18

4. –x3 + 22x2 – 121x = 0

5. x2 – 4x = 5

Answers

The solutions for the given equations are:

x² - 49 = 0; x = {-7, 7}3x³ - 12x = 0; x = {-2, 0, 2}12x² + 14x + 12 = 18; x = {-3/2, 1/3}-x³ + 22x² - 121x = 0; x = {0, 11, 11}x² - 4x = 5; x = {-1, 5}

What is factorization?

Writing a number or an equation as a product of its factors is said to be the factorization.

A linear equation has only one factor, a quadratic equation has 2 factors and a cubic equation has 3 factors.

Calculation:

1. Solving x² - 49 = 0; (quadratic equation)

⇒ x² - 7² = 0

This is in the form of a² - b². So, a² - b² = (a + b)(a - b)

⇒ (x + 7)(x - 7) =0

By the zero-product rule,

x = -7 and 7.

2. Solving 3x³ - 12x = 0

⇒ 3x(x² - 4) = 0

⇒ 3x(x² - 2²) = 0

⇒ 3x(x + 2)(x - 2) = 0

So, by the zero product rule, x = -2, 0, 2

3. Solving 12x² + 14x + 12 = 18; (quadratic equation)

⇒ 12x² + 14x + 12 - 18 = 0

⇒ 12x² + 14x - 6 = 0

⇒ 2(6x² + 7x - 3) = 0

⇒ 6x² + 9x - 2x - 3 = 0

⇒ 3x(2x + 3) - (2x + 3) = 0

⇒ (3x - 1)(2x + 3) = 0

∴ x = 1/3, -3/2

4. Solving -x³ + 22x² - 121x = 0

⇒ -x³ + 22x² - 121x = 0

⇒ -x(x² - 22x + 121) = 0

⇒ -x(x² - 11x - 11x + 121) = 0

⇒ -x(x(x - 11) - 11(x - 11)) = 0

⇒ -x(x - 11)² = 0

∴ x = 0, 11, 11

5. Solving x² - 4x = 5; (quadratic equation)

⇒ x² - 4x - 5 = 0

⇒ x² -5x + x - 5 = 0

⇒ x(x - 5) + (x - 5) = 0

⇒ (x + 1)(x - 5) =0

∴ x = -1, 5

Hence all the given equations are solved.

Given: LM ∥ KN
LP ⊥ KN , KL = MN
KN = 30, LM = 20
m∠KLM=126°
Find: LP

Answers

An angle is produced at the point where two or more lines meet. Thus the value of LP required in the question is approximately 14.

Two lines are said to be perpendicular when a measure of the angle between them is a right angle. While parallel lines are lines that do not meet even when extended to infinity.

From the question, let the length of LP be represented by x.

Thus, from the given question, it can be deduced that;

LM ≅ PN = 20

KP = KN - PN

    = 30 - 20

KP = 10

LP = x

Also,

<MLP is a right angle, so that;

< KLP = < KLM - <PLM

         = 126 - 90

<KLP = [tex]36^{o}[/tex]

So that applying the Pythagoras theorem to triangle KLP, we have;

Tan θ = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

Tan 36 = [tex]\frac{10}{x}[/tex]

x = [tex]\frac{10}{Tan 36}[/tex]

  = [tex]\frac{10}{0.7265}[/tex]

x = 13.765

Therefore the side LP ≅ 14.

Usando la distribución hipergeométrica,  la probabilidad de que ambas estén numeradas con el valor 1, es: 0.0222 = 2.22%.

¿Qué es la fórmula de distribución hipergeométrica?

La fórmula es:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

Los parámetros son:

x es el número de éxitos.N es el tamaño de la población.n es el tamaño de la muestra.k es el número total de resultados deseados.

Los valores de los parámetros son:

N = 10, k = 2, n = 2.

La probabilidad de que ambas estén numeradas con el valor 1, es P(X = 2), entonces:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = h(2,10,2,2) = \frac{C_{2,2}C_{8,0}}{C_{10,2}} = 0.0222[/tex]
