Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Here we can not see the graph, so I will upload a new graph for this case.

To solve the equation:

Ln(x) = x - 2

We can first graph the equations:

y = Ln(x)

y = x - 2

And find the point where these graphs intersect.

In the graph we can see two intersects.

One (the first one) is near the point ( 0.15, -1.85)

And the other intersection is near the point (3.14, 1.14)

Then two possible values of x that are solutions of:

ln(x) = x - 2

are:

x = 0.15

x = 3.14

Is it possible for a triangle to have a 54 degree angle and a 126 degree angle? Explain why or why not.

Answers

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Those are only 2 angles and they already equal 180, Every single triangle has a sum of 180 and if you already hit 180 with only 2 out of the 3 points, it's not possible

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

No, because the 3 angles of a triangle have to add up to 180 degrees. The given 2 angles already add up to 180 degrees leaving no room for the missing angle.

Suppose we have a set of three buyers who are trying to buy homes from three sellers. Suppose that seller A charges 3 for their house, seller B charges 2 for their house, and seller C charges 1 for their house The valuations for the three buyers are as follows ordered by house number (so house a, then house b, then house c):
Buyer 1: A: 1 B: 3 C: 2
Buyer 2: A: 5 B:5 C: 5
Buyer 3: A: 5 B: 3 C: 2
Assuming that this set of prices is market clearing, provide the utility for each player in the transaction.

Answers

Solution :

As we can see from the following question that  :

[tex]$\text{Seller A}$[/tex] charges [tex]$3$[/tex] for their house, [tex]$C_A=3$[/tex]

[tex]$\text{Seller B}$[/tex] charges [tex]$2$[/tex] for their house, [tex]$C_B=2$[/tex]

[tex]$\text{Seller C}$[/tex] charges [tex]$1$[/tex] for their house, [tex]$C_C=1$[/tex]

Now depending on the valuation that each buyer have on these three houses, they derive utility from it :

Buyer I

Valuation for house A, [tex]$V'_A=1$[/tex]

Valuation for house B, [tex]$V'_B=3$[/tex]

Valuation for house C, [tex]$V'_C=2$[/tex]

Utility that buyer I derives from :

House A, [tex]$V_A = V'_A-C_A = 1-3 = -2$[/tex]

House B, [tex]$V_B = V'_B-C_B = 3-2 = 1$[/tex]

House C, [tex]$V_C = V'_C-C_C = 2-1 = 1$[/tex]

As we can see from buying house B and C, buyer I has positively utility, so the buyer will be interested to buy house B and C. As the utility derived from both the houses is same, he will be indifferent.

Buyer II

Valuation for house A, [tex]$V^2_A=5$[/tex]

Valuation for house B, [tex]$V^2_B=5$[/tex]

Valuation for house C, [tex]$V^2_C=5$[/tex]

Utility that buyer II derives from :

House A, [tex]$V_A = V^2_A-C_A = 5-3 = 2$[/tex]

House B, [tex]$V_B = V^2_B-C_B = 5-2 = 3$[/tex]

House C, [tex]$V_C = V^2_C-C_C = 5-1 = 4$[/tex]

Buyer II drives positive utility from all the three houses, so he will be interested to buy any of them but will be inclined towards house C, as it gives the buyer more utility.

Buyer III

Valuation for house A, [tex]$V^2_A=5$[/tex]

Valuation for house B, [tex]$V^2_B=3$[/tex]

Valuation for house C, [tex]$V^2_C=2$[/tex]

Utility that buyer III derives from :

House A, [tex]$V_A = V^2_A-C_A = 5-3 = 2$[/tex]

House B, [tex]$V_B = V^2_B-C_B = 3-2 = 1$[/tex]

House C, [tex]$V_C = V^2_C-C_C = 2-1 = 1$[/tex]

The buyer III derives positive utility from all the three houses but will be more inclined to buy house A as it gives the buyer higher utility as compared to the other houses.

AB is the midsegment of AXYZ and PQ is the midsegment of XAB. What is the relationship in length between PQ and YZ? O PQ = 1/8 Y Z O PQ = 1/2YZ O PQ = 1/4Y Z O PQ = 1/3YZ​

Answers

Answer:

third option: PQ = 1/4(YZ)

Step-by-step explanation:

By the Midsegment Theorem, a midsegment is 1/2 the side across it. Using this, we can say:

In triangle XYZ, AB = 1/2(YZ)

And in triangle XAB, PQ = 1/2(AB)

We can substitute AB into the second equation to get:

PQ = 1/2(1/2(YZ))

PQ = 1/4(YZ)

This is the third option.

Suppose that you are about to purchase a car and have narrowed your choices to two models --Model A and Model B. All things are about equal, such as price, options, even the average annual maintenance costs. You find an owner survey in an auto magazine that indicates that the standard deviation of maintenance costs is smaller for Model B. Based on this information, which of the following statements is most appropriate?
A. Model B with the smaller standard deviation is preferable, because the smaller value implies that the mean is a more reliable representation of maintenance costs.
B. Model A with the larger standard deviation is preferable. Cecause the larger value implies a smaller amount of variation in the data
C. Neither of the models are good since both standard deviations are not equal to 0. B 2
D. They are equally acceptable, because standard deviations are not useful for comparisons of data sets.
E. Cannot determine based on the information provided.

Answers

Answer:

A. Model B with the smaller standard deviation is preferable, because the smaller value implies that the mean is a more reliable representation of maintenance costs.

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard deviation is a measure of the variability of a dataset about a mean value. Larger values of standard deviation implies that the values varies Hugely about the mean whole smaller variability measure values mean that the data only varies a little about the mean. The implication of having a large variability value is that, low and high values in the data can be very different from the mean values, hence, lowering the reliability of Mean value. The lesser varibality gives the mean more reliability as a measure of centre

An elevator has a placard stating that the maximum capacity is 1600 lb�10 passengers.​ So, 10 adult male passengers can have a mean weight of up to 1600/10=160 pounds. If the elevator is loaded with 10 adult male​ passengers, find the probability that it is overloaded because they have a mean weight greater than 160 lb.​ (Assume that weights of males are normally distributed with a mean of 166 lb and a standard deviation of 29 lb​.)
1.The probability the elevator is overloaded is?
*-Please show work to help me understand-*
2. Does this elevator appear to be​ safe?
A.Yes, there is a good chance that 10 randomly selected people will not exceed the elevator capacity.
B. No, 10 randomly selected people will never be under the weight limit.
C.Yes, 10 randomly selected people will always be under the weight limit.
D.​No, there is a good chance that 10 randomly selected people will exceed the elevator capacity.

Answers

Answer:

1. 0.7421 = 74.21% probability the elevator is overloaded.

2. D.​No, there is a good chance that 10 randomly selected people will exceed the elevator capacity.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Assume that weights of males are normally distributed with a mean of 166 lb and a standard deviation of 29 lb​.

This means that [tex]\mu = 166, \sigma = 29[/tex]

Sample of 10.

This means that [tex]n = 10, s = \frac{29}{\sqrt{10}}[/tex]

1.The probability the elevator is overloaded is?

Probability that the sample mean is above 160 pounds, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 160. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{160 - 166}{\frac{29}{\sqrt{10}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.65[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.65[/tex] has a p-value of 0.2579.

1 - 0.2579 = 0.7421

0.7421 = 74.21% probability the elevator is overloaded.

2. Does this elevator appear to be​ safe?

High probability of the elevator being overloaded, so not safe. Correct answer is given by option D.

In an article by researchers Meehl and Rosen (Psychological Bulletin, 1955), a diagnostic test was examined for detecting psychological adjustment in soldiers. A positive result indicates the solder is mal-adjusted whereas a negative result indicates well-adjusted. For soldiers known to be well-adjusted, the test gives a positive result 19% of the time. For soldiers known to be mal-adjusted, the test gives a positive result 55% of the time. The researchers believed that 5% of all soldiers are mal-adjusted. Suppose a soldier is selected at random and they test positive. What is the probability that soldier is mal-adjusted

Answers

Answer:

0.1322 = 13.22% probability that the soldier is mal-adjusted.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Positive test

Event B: Soldier is mal-adjusted.

Probability of a positive test:

55% of 5%(mal-adjusted).

19% of 100 - 5 = 95%(well adjusted). So

[tex]P(A) = 0.55*0.05 + 0.19*0.95 = 0.208[/tex]

Probability of a positive test and soldier being mal-adjusted.

55% of 5%. So

[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.55*0.05 = 0.0275[/tex]

What is the probability that the soldier is mal-adjusted?

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.0275}{0.208} = 0.1322[/tex]

0.1322 = 13.22% probability that the soldier is mal-adjusted.

Answers

Answer:

85

Step-by-step explanation:

So you train of though might lead you to soemthing like this: it must be 90 degrees, since that looks like a 90 degree triangle, and there are 180 degrees in a line. So 90 degrees and 90 degrees make up the 180.

That is exactly what I though.

But, its a bit different from that. We do not know for sure that its a 90 degree traingle. Depending on the angle of the traingle, the outcome of the mystery number is different.

So, to find the angle of the trainge, lets take our 155 degree line.

Now, this is just a simple line. We know the line is 180, and that the other number must add onto 155 to make 180:

180-155=missing angle

=

25. So we know that the smallest angle of the traingle is 25.

We also know that a traingle has a total of 180 degrees.

We can add the 60 degrees and our new 25 degrees, subtract if from 180, and we will get our last angle of the traingle we need to solve:

60+25

=

85

Now subtract it from 180:

180-85

=

95

So that last angle of the traingle is 95.

Now, we need to solve the missing angle of the line that will give us the answer.

Again, we know the line has to be 180, so lets subtract 95 from that:

180-95

=

85

So we know that the missing angle answer is 85!
