Two less than three-fourths of a number is, at most, negative seventeen. what is the range of values for the number?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

x\leq -20

values ranging fromminus infinity to negative 20

Step-by-step explanation:

we write the inequality associated with the text in terms of the unknown number "x" as:

(3)/(4) x-2\leq -17

then, we solve for "x" by adding 2 to both sides, and then isolating "x" on the left as shown below:

(3)/(4) x-2\leq -17\n(3)/(4) x\leq -17+2\n(3)/(4) x\leq -15\n3\,x\leq -60\nx\leq -(60)/(3) \nx\leq -20

then, the range of x-values is from minus infinity to negative 20

A hole is punched in a piece of metal to make a part for a machine. What is the area of the metal part, or the shaded region shown?

Answers

The area of the metal part, or the shaded region shown is 10x + 45.

calculation:

= (x+ 7)^2 - (x-2)^2\n\n= (x^2 + 14x + 49) - (x^2 - 4x + 4)\n\n= (14 - 4)x + (49 - 4)

= 10x + 45

Answer:

The area of the metal part or shaded area is S=10x+45.

Step-by-step explanation:

The shaded area can be calculated substracting the little square area (the hole) from the big square area (the original metal part).

This is:

S=S_(original)-S_(hole)=(x+7)^2-(x-2)^2\n\nS=(x^2+14x+49)-(x^2-4x+4)\n\nS=(14-4)x+(49-4)\n\nS=10x+45

The area of the metal part or shaded area is S=10x+45.

Allied Corporation is trying to sell its new machines to Ajax. Allied claims that the machine will pay for itself since the time it takes to produce the product using the new machine is significantly less than the production time using the old machine. To test the claim, independent random samples were taken from both machines. You are given the following results.New Machine Old Machine
Sample Mean 25 23
Sample Variance 27 7.56
Sample Size 45 36
As the statistical advisor to Ajax, would you recommend purchasing Allied's machine? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

z(s) is in the acceptance region. We accept H₀  we did not find a significantly difference in the performance of the two machines therefore we suggest not to buy a new machine

Step-by-step explanation:

We must evaluate the differences of the means of the two machines, to do so, we will assume a CI  of 95%, and as the interest is to find out if the new machine has better performance ( machine has a bigger efficiency or the new machine produces more units per unit of time than the old one) the test will be a one tail-test (to the left).

New machine

Sample mean                  x₁ =    25

Sample variance               s₁  = 27

Sample size                       n₁  = 45

Old machine

Sample mean                    x₂ =  23  

Sample variance               s₂  = 7,56

Sample size                       n₂  = 36

Test Hypothesis:

Null hypothesis                         H₀             x₂  -  x₁  = d = 0

Alternative hypothesis             Hₐ            x₂  -  x₁  <  0

CI = 90 %  ⇒  α =  10 %     α = 0,1      z(c) = - 1,28

To calculate z(s)

z(s)  =  ( x₂  -  x₁ ) / √s₁² / n₁  +  s₂² / n₂

s₁  = 27     ⇒    s₁²  =  729

n₁  = 45    ⇒   s₁² / n₁    = 16,2

s₂  = 7,56   ⇒    s₂²  = 57,15

n₂  = 36     ⇒    s₂² / n₂  =  1,5876

√s₁² / n₁  +  s₂² / n₂  =  √ 16,2  + 1.5876    = 4,2175

z(s) = (23 - 25 )/4,2175

z(s)  =  - 0,4742

Comparing z(s) and  z(c)

|z(s)| < | z(c)|  

z(s) is in the acceptance region. We accept H₀  we did not find a significantly difference in the performance of the two machines therefore we suggest not to buy a new machine

Part: 0 / 30 of 3 Parts Complete Part 1 of 3 What proportion of trees are more than 130 inches tall? The proportion of trees that are more than 130 inches tall is .

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.2588

b) 0.044015

c) 0.12609

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the TI-84 PLUS calculator

The formula for calculating a z-score is is z = (x-μ)/σ,

where x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

From the question, we know that:

μ = 119 inches

standard deviation σ = 17 inches

(a) What proportion of trees are more than 130 inches tall?

x = 130 inches

z = (130-119)/17

= 0.64706

Probabilty value from Z-Table:

P(x<130) = 0.7412

P(x>130) = 1 - P(x<130) = 0.2588

(b) What proportion of trees are less than 90 inches tall?

x = 90 inches

z = (90-119)/17

=-1.70588

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<90) = 0.044015

(c) What is the probability that a randomly chosen tree is between 95 and 105 inches tall?

For x = 95

z = (95-119)/17

= -1.41176

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 95) = 0.07901

For x = 105

z = (105 -119)/17

=-0.82353

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<105) = 0.2051

The probability that a randomly chosen tree is between 95 and 105 inches tall

P(x = 105) - P(x = 95)

0.2051 - 0.07901

= 0.12609
