22. According to ghost hunters, large cities have, on average, 9 haunted houses each. As far as we know, it is unpredictable which houses will be haunted; and just because one house is haunted, that does not mean any of its neighbors will or will not be haunted. a) What is the standard deviation of the number of haunted houses in a large city

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The standard deviation of the number of haunted houses in a large city is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval, which is the same as the variance.

According to ghost hunters, large cities have, on average, 9 haunted houses each.

This means that [tex]\mu = 9[/tex]

a) What is the standard deviation of the number of haunted houses in a large city?

Square root of the variance, so:

[tex]\sqrt{9} = 3[/tex]

The standard deviation of the number of haunted houses in a large city is 3.

which monomial represents the number of square units in the area of a circle with radius 4x^3 units

Answers

Answer:

For a circle of radius R, the area is written as:

A = pi*R^2

Where pi = 3.14

Then if the radius of the circle is R = 4*x^3

The area of this circle will be:

A = 3.14*(4*x^3)^2 = 3.14*(4)^2*(x^3)^2

Here you need to remember that:

(a^n)^m = a^(n*m)

Then the area of the circle is:

A = 3.14*(16)*(x^(3*2) = 3.14*16*x^6 = 50.24*x^6

So the monomial that represents the number of square units in the area of the circle is:

A(x) =  50.24*x^6

On a 28-question test, there are 2-point questions, 4-point questions, and 5-point questions. The test is worth a total of 100 points. There are twice as many 2-point questions as 5-point questions on the test. How many 2-point questions are on the test?

4.Solveby any algebraic method. Work must be shown.

Answers

Answer:

The test has 8 questions of 2 points, as well as 16 of 4 points and 4 of 5 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, on a 28-question test, there are 2-point questions, 4-point questions, and 5-point questions, the test is worth a total of 100 points and there are twice as many 2-point questions as 5- point questions on the test, to determine how many 2-point questions are on the test, the following calculation must be performed:

18 x 2 + 9 x 5 + 1 x 4 = 36 + 45 + 4 = 85

16 x 2 + 8 x 5 + 4 x 4 = 32 + 40 + 16 = 88

14 x 2 + 7 x 5 + 7 x 4 = 28 + 35 + 28 = 91

12 x 2 + 6 x 5 + 10 x 4 = 24 + 30 + 40 = 94

10 x 2 + 5 x 5 + 13 x 4 = 20 + 25 + 52 = 97

8 x 2 + 4 x 5 + 16 x 4 = 16 + 20 + 64 = 100

Thus, the test has 8 questions of 2 points, as well as 16 of 4 points and 4 of 5 points.

Stuck on this problem, can't find 3x​

Answers

Answer:

x equals 10, angle measure is 30°

Step-by-step explanation:

By using the Vertical Angles Theorem which states that opposite angles formed by 2 intersecting lines are congruent we can find that the measure of the angle with 3x is equal to the measure of it's opposite angle or 30°. Using this we can make an equation that can find us our answer.

3x = 30

Divide both sides by 3

A farmer sells 8.9 kilograms of pears and apples at the farmer's market. 1 4 of this weight is pears, and the rest is apples. How many kilograms of apples did she sell at the farmer's market?

Answers

Answer:

7.5 kilograms of apples

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the total amount and subtract the amount of pears.

8.9-1.4=7.5

Answer:

If 2/5 are apples, 2/5 x 8.9 kilos = 0.4 x 8.9 = 3.56 kilos of apples

pears = 8.9 - 3.56 = 5.34 kilos

if apples are 2/5, then pears are 3/5.  3/5 x 8.9 = .6 x 8.9 = 5.34 kilos of pears

home security service. This private home security service guarantees to either dispatch one of their own five guards immediately if one of their customers sends in an alarm or, in the case that all five guards are responding to other calls, direct the alarm to the local police. The company receives 12 calls per hour, evenly distributed over the course of the day. The local police charges the home security company $500 for every call that the police responds to. It takes a guard, on average, 90 minutes to respond to an alarm. a. What fraction of the time are incoming alarms directed to the police? b. How much does the home security company have to pay the local police every month?

Answers

Answer:

a.

The fraction of the time is incoming alarms directed to the police is 74.02%

b.

The home security company has to pay $3,197,665 the local police every month.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the given data

Numbers of guards = 5 guards

Calls received per hour = 12 calls per hour

Activity time = 90 minutes

First, calculate the inter-arrival time

Inter-arrival time = Minutes in an hour / Numbers of calls received per hour = 60 minutes per hour / 12 calls per hour = 5 minutes

a.

First, calculate the ratio of activity time to inter-arrival time

Ratio = Activity time / Inter-arrival time = 90 minutes / 5 minutses = 18

Now calculate the probability of all 5 servers are busy using ratio of activity time to inter-arrival time

Probability = [tex]P_{Servers}[/tex] ( ratio )

Probability = [tex]P_{5}[/tex] ( 18 )

Probability = 0.7402

Probability = 74.02%

Hence the probability of incoming calls directed to the police is 74.02%

b.

First, calculate the loss of customers

Loss of customers = Probability x ( 1 / Servers )

Loss of customers = 74.02% x ( 1 / 5 )

Loss of customers = 0.7402 x 0.20

Loss of customers = 0.14804 per minute

Loss of customers = 0.14804 per minute x 24 x 60 x 30 = 6,395.33 calls per month

Now calculate the total loss

Total loss =  6,395.33 calls x $500

Total loss = $3,197,665

PLEASE HELP!! The AHS Football team did a weigh in at the start of training camp. The weights of the players were distributed normally with a mean of 98kg and a standard deviation of 6kg. Which of the following curves represents the data? A,B, Or C??

Answers

Answer: Choice C

=========================================================

Explanation:

The mean is 98, so that's the center of the distribution. This is where the highest point occurs because the most people are clustered around here. This rules out choice A and the answer is between B or C.

One standard deviation above the mean is 98+6 = 104. All we do is add on the standard deviation (6) to the mean (98) to get 104.

One standard deviation below the mean is 98-6 = 92

The graph that has tickmarks at 92 and 104 indicate we are exactly 1 standard deviation from the mean (98)

Similarly, 2 standard deviations above the mean is at 98+2*6 = 98+12 = 110. Or you could say 104+6 = 110.

2 standard deviations below the mean would get us to 98-2*6 = 98-12 = 86

The same idea applies to 3 standard deviations as well.

All of this matches with graph C. We can eliminate graph B by noticing that something like 95 is not a result of 98-6.

[tex](a)[/tex] [tex]Denominator= (x - 10)(x+5)(x-4)[/tex]

[tex](b)[/tex] [tex]M = \frac{(7x - 5)(x-4)}{(x+5)(x - 10)(x-4)}[/tex]

[tex](c)[/tex] [tex]N = \frac{(3x - 8)(x + 5)}{(x-4)(x-10)(x + 5)}[/tex]

[tex](d)[/tex] [tex]M + N = \frac{10x^2-26x -20}{(x+5)(x - 10)(x-4)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]M = \frac{7x - 5}{x^2 -5x - 50}[/tex]

[tex]N = \frac{3x - 8}{x^2 -14x+ 40}[/tex]

Solving (a): A common denominator of M and N.

To do this, we simply get the LCM of both denominators

[tex]M = x^2 - 5x - 50[/tex]

[tex]N = x^2 - 14x + 40[/tex]

Factorize both:

[tex]M = (x - 10)(x + 5)[/tex]

[tex]N = (x- 10)(x - 4)[/tex]

The LCM is

[tex]LCM= (x - 10)(x+5)(x-4)[/tex]

Hence, the common denominator is:

[tex]Denominator= (x - 10)(x+5)(x-4)[/tex]

Solving (b): Rewrite M

[tex]M = \frac{7x - 5}{x^2 -5x - 50}[/tex]

Factor the denominator:

[tex]M = \frac{7x - 5}{(x+5)(x - 10)}[/tex]

The LCM calculated in (a) above is:

[tex]LCM= (x - 10)(x+5)(x-4)[/tex]

So, we have to multiply the numerator and denominator of M by (x - 4)

The expression becomes:

[tex]M = \frac{7x - 5}{(x+5)(x - 10)} * \frac{x - 4}{x-4}[/tex]

[tex]M = \frac{(7x - 5)(x-4)}{(x+5)(x - 10)(x-4)}[/tex]

Solving (c): Rewrite N

[tex]N = \frac{3x - 8}{x^2 -14x+ 40}[/tex]

Factor the denominator:

[tex]N = \frac{3x - 8}{(x-4)(x-10)}[/tex]

The LCM calculated in (a) above is:

[tex]LCM= (x - 10)(x+5)(x-4)[/tex]

So, we have to multiply the numerator and denominator of N by (x + 5)

The expression becomes:

[tex]N = \frac{3x - 8}{(x-4)(x-10)} * \frac{x + 5}{x + 5}[/tex]

[tex]N = \frac{(3x - 8)(x + 5)}{(x-4)(x-10)(x + 5)}[/tex]

(d) Solve M + N

[tex]M + N = \frac{(7x - 5)(x-4)}{(x+5)(x - 10)(x-4)} + \frac{(3x - 8)(x + 5)}{(x-4)(x-10)(x + 5)}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]M + N = \frac{(7x - 5)(x-4) + (3x - 8)(x + 5)}{(x+5)(x - 10)(x-4)}[/tex]

Open brackets

[tex]M + N = \frac{7x^2 - 28x - 5x + 20 + 3x^2 + 15x - 8x - 40}{(x+5)(x - 10)(x-4)}[/tex]
