Answer:
the number of hours in a week Jope, who is not at work, is 102 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
call X is the number of hours in a week Jope is not at work.
=> the number of hours in a week = X + the number of work hours in a week
=> 6*24 = X + 42

Identify the first five terms of the sequence in which a, = 3n2 - 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
you cannot just put the actual numbers in and calculate ?
and you can't provide the correct problem statement, as it seems.
I assume you mean
an = 3n² - 1
a sequence starts with a1, so, n>=1
a1 = 3×1² - 1 = 3-1 = 2
a2 = 3×2² -1 = 3×4 - 1 = 12 - 1 = 11
a3 = 3×3² - 1 = 3×9 - 1 = 27 - 1 = 26
a4 = 3×4² - 1 = 3×16 - 1 = 48 - 1 = 47
a5 = 3×5² - 1 = 3×25 - 1 = 75 - 1 = 74
there, that is all there is to it. you really needed help with that ?

Answer:
Option C. √5/3
Step-by-step explanation:
We'll begin by simplifying √15 / 3√3. This can be obtained as follow:
√15 / 3√3
Rationalise
√15 / 3√3 × (√3 /√3)
(√15 × √3) / (3√3 × √3)
√45 / (3 × 3)
√45 / 9
Recall:
√45 = √(9 × 5) = √9 × √5 = 3√5
Thus,
√45 / 9 = 3√5 / 9
√45 / 9 = √5 / 3
Therefore,
√15 / 3√3 = √5 / 3
Thus, option C gives the right answer to the question.
At a large Midwestern university, a simple random sample of 100 entering freshmen in 1993 found that 20 of the sampled freshmen finished in the bottom third of their high school class. Admission standards at the university were tightened in 1995. In 1997, a simple random sample of 100 entering freshmen found that only 10 finished in the bottom third of their high school class. Let p 1 and p 2 be the proportions of all entering freshmen in 1993 and 1997, respectively, who graduated in the bottom third of their high school class. What is a 90% plus four confidence interval for p 1 – p 2?
Answer:
The 90% confidence interval for the difference of proportions is (0.01775,0.18225).
Step-by-step explanation:
Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.
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.
For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]
Subtraction between normal variables:
When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.
p1 -> 1993
20 out of 100, so:
[tex]p_1 = \frac{20}{100} = 0.2[/tex]
[tex]s_1 = \sqrt{\frac{0.2*0.8}{100}} = 0.04[/tex]
p2 -> 1997
10 out of 100, so:
[tex]p_2 = \frac{10}{100} = 0.1[/tex]
[tex]s_2 = \sqrt{\frac{0.1*0.9}{100}} = 0.03[/tex]
Distribution of p1 – p2:
[tex]p = p_1 - p_2 = 0.2 - 0.1 = 0.1[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{s_1^2+s_2^2} = \sqrt{0.04^2 + 0.03^2} = 0.05[/tex]
Confidence interval:
[tex]p \pm zs[/tex]
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
90% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.1[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.645[/tex].
The lower bound of the interval is:
[tex]p - zs = 0.1 - 1.645*0.05 = 0.01775 [/tex]
The upper bound of the interval is:
[tex]p + zs = 0.1 + 1.645*0.05 = 0.18225 [/tex]
The 90% confidence interval for the difference of proportions is (0.01775,0.18225).

Step-by-step explanation:
There are 165 children taking swimming lessons at the pool. If 10 children will be assigned to each instructor, how many instructors are needed?
Answer:
17 instructors
Step-by-step explanation:
If each instructor will get 10 children, we have to divided the total number of children taking swimming lessons by the number of children assigned to each instructor (10):
165/10 = 16.5
Unfortunately, we can't have 16 and a half instructors. Since 5 children are remaining, we can round up 16.5 to 17 and get 17 instructors. This implies that 16 instructors will teach 10 children (160 in total) and 1 instructor will teach 5 children (5 in total). 160+5 = 165 total children.

Answer:
χ²R = 8.643
χ²L = 42.796
0.20 < σ < 0.45
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Sample size, n = 23
The degree of freedom, df = n - 1 = 23 - 1 = 22
At α - level = 99%
For χ²R ; 1 - (1 - 0.99)/2= 0.995 ; df = 22 ; χ²R = 8.643
For χ²L ; (1 - 0.99)/2 = 0.005 ; df = 22 ; χ²L = 42.796
The confidence interval of σ ;

You flip a coin that is not fair, the prbability of heads on each flip is 0.7. if the coin shows heads, you draw a marble from urn h with 1 blue and 4 red marbles. if the coin shows tails, you draw a marble from urn t with 3 blue and 1 red marble. Find the following probabilities:
a. The probability of choosing a red marble.
b. The probability of choosing a blue marble, given that the coin showed heads.
c. The probability that the coin showed tails, given that the marble was red.
Solution :
P(H) = 0.7 ; P(T) = 0.3
If heads, then Urn H, 1 blue and 4 red marbles.
If tails, then Urn T , 3 blue and 1 red marbles.
a).
P ( choosing a Red marble )
= P (H) x P( Red from Urn H) + P (T) x P( Red from Urn T)
[tex]$=0.7 \times \frac{4}{5} + 0.3 \times \frac{1}{4}$[/tex]
= 0.56 + 0.075
= 0.635
b). If P (B, if coin showed heads)
If heads, then marble is picked from Urn H.
Therefore,
P (Blue) [tex]$=\frac{1}{5}$[/tex]
= 0.2
c). P (Tails, if marble was red)
[tex]$=P (T/R) = \frac{P(R/T)}{P(R)} \ P(T)$[/tex]
Where P (R/T) = P ( red, if coin showed tails)
[tex]$=\frac{1}{4}$[/tex]
= 0.25 (As Urn T is chosen)
P (R) = P (Red) = 0.635 (from part (a) )
P (T) = P (Tails) = 0.3
∴ [tex]$P(T/R) = \frac{0.25 \times 0.3}{0.635}$[/tex]
= 0.118

Answer:
AC = 2.0 mm = 41.3 kgStep-by-step explanation:
The sum of torques about the pivot point is zero when the system is in equilibrium. That means the total of clockwise torques is equal to the total of counterclockwise torques. For this purpose, torque can be modeled by the product of mass and its distance from the pivot. The uniform beam can be modeled as a point mass at its center.
__
a) Let E represent the location of the center of mass of the beam. So, AE = 1.5 m. Then the distance from C to E is AC-AE = AC -1.5 and the CCW torque due to the beam's mass is (16 kg)(AC -1.5 m).
The distance from B to C is 3 m - AC, so the CW torque due to the particle at B is (7 kg)(3 -AC m)
These are equal, so we have ...
16(AC -1.5) = 7(3 -AC)
16AC -24 = 21 -7AC . . . . . eliminate parentheses
23AC = 45 . . . . . . . . . . . add 7AC+24
AC = 45/23 ≈ 1.957 . . divide by the coefficient of AC
AC ≈ 2.0 meters . . . . rounded to 1 dp
__
b) The torques in this scenario are ...
M(0.7) = 16(0.8) +7(2.3) . . . . . . AD = 0.7 m, DE = 0.8 m, DB = 2.3 m
M = 28.9/0.7 ≈ 41.286 . . . . simplify, divide by the coefficient of M
M = 41.3 kg . . . . rounded to 1 dp
_____
Additional comment
Torque is actually the product of force and distance from the pivot. Here, the forces are all downward, and due to the acceleration of gravity. The gravitational constant multiplies each mass, so there is no harm in dividing the equation by that constant, leaving the sum of products of mass and distance.
Alejandro wants to adopt a puppy from an animal shelter. At the shelter, he finds eight puppies that he likes: a male and female puppy from each of the four breeds of and Labrador. The puppies are each so cute that Alejandro cannot make up his mind, so he decides to pick the dog randomly. Find the probability that Alejandro chooses a .

Step-by-step explanation:
1. Approach
The average rate of change can simply be defined as the slope of a line that passes through any two points on a coordinate plane. In this situation, one is given a function, and one is asked to find the rate of change over an interval.
Given function: [tex]f(x)=x^2+3x[/tex]
Intervale, [tex][0, 4][/tex]
This can be done by evaluating the endpoints of the interval by substituting them into the function. Then writing the resulting the form of a point on the coordinate plane ([tex]x, y[/tex]). Finally, one can find the slope of the line that passes through the points by using the following slope formula,
[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
Where ([tex]x_1,y_1[/tex]) and ([tex]x_2,y_2[/tex]) are coordinate points.
2. Find the points
With the function (f(x)), substitute the end points of the itnerval ( [0, 4] ) into the function to generate coordinate points,
[tex]f(x)=x^2+3x[/tex]
[ 0, 4 ]
[tex]f(0)=(0)^2+3(0)\\=0 + 0\\ =0[/tex]
Point: (0, 0)
[tex]f(4)=(4)^2+3(4)\\= 16 + 12\\ = 28[/tex]
Point: (4, 28)
3. Find the average rate of change,
Now substitute the points the formula to find the slope, then simplify to evaluate
[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
(0, 0), (4, 28)
Substitute,
[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\=\frac{28-0}{4-0}\\\\=\frac{28}{4}\\\\= 7[/tex]
The average rate of change is 7.

A hotel has 210 units. All rooms are occupied when the hotel charges $90 per day for a room. For every increase of x dollars in the daily room rate, there are x rooms vacant. Each occupied room costs $24 per day to service and maintain. What should the hotel charge per day in order to maximize daily profit
Answer: [tex]\$162[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
There are 210 units of hotel
Each room charge $90 when fully occupied
occupied room charges is $24 per day
Suppose x rooms are vacant, so, there 210-x occupied
Daily expense on maintenance[tex]=(210-x)\times 24[/tex]
Earning from 210-x rooms[tex]=(210-x)(90+x)[/tex]
Profit(P)=Earning - Expense
[tex]\Rightarrow P=(210-x)(90+x)-(210-x)24\\\Rightarrow P=21,600+210x-90x-x^2-5040+24x\\\Rightarrow P=-x^2+144x+16,560\\[/tex]
To get the maximum profit, determine the derivative of P w.r.t. x and equate it to zero
[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{dP}{dx}=-2x+144\\\\\Rightarrow -2x+144=0\\\\\Rightarrow x=72[/tex]
Charges for maximum profit is [tex]90+72=\$162[/tex]
Number of occupied rooms are [tex]210-72=138[/tex]
The hotel charge per day will be $162 in order to maximize daily profit.
Given that, Hotel has 210 units
Let us consider that x rooms are vacant.
Total occupied rooms = [tex](210-x)[/tex]
Since, Each occupied room costs $24 per day to service and maintain
So, Total expense = [tex]24*(210-x)=5040-24x[/tex]
Since, For all rooms are occupied when the hotel charges $90 per day for a room. For every increase of x dollars in the daily room rate, there are x rooms vacant.
So, Total earing = [tex](210-x)*(90+x)=-x^{2} +120x+21600[/tex]
Profit = Total earning - Total expense
[tex]P=-x^{2} +120x+21600-5040+24x\\\\P=-x^{2} +144x+16560[/tex]
In order to maximize profit, Differentiate profit expression with respect to x.
[tex]\frac{dP}{dx}=\frac{d}{dx}(-x^{2} +144x+16560) \\\\\frac{dP}{dx}=-2x+144=0\\\\\\x=\frac{144}{2}=72[/tex]
Thus, Hotel charges per day for maximum profit = [tex]90+x=90+72=162[/tex]
