Two students are throwing water balloons at a target. Accuracy is measured as how close the balloon is from the
center of the target. Tory's distances from the center of the target are approximately Normally distributed with a
mean of 123 mm and a standard deviation of 31 mm. Adam's distances from the center is approximately Normally
distributed with a mean of 108 mm and a standard deviation of 47 mm. If 5 attempts for Tory and 3 attempts for
Adam are randomly selected, what is the probability that the mean distance from the center of the target for Tory is
more than for Adam?
O 0.3113
O 0.4923
O 0.6887
O 0.7427

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.6887

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Using normal distribution, the probability of that mean distance from the center of the target for Tory is more than for Adam is 0.6887.

What is normal distribution?

Normal distribution is "continuous probability distribution that its symmetrical around its mean with most values near the central peak".

According to the question,

Tory's distances from the center of the target are normally distributed with a mean of 123mm and a standard deviation 31mm. Number of attempts for Tory is 5.

Adam's  distances from the center of the target are with a mean of 108mm and a standard deviation 47mm. Number of attempts for Adam is 3.

In order to find the probability of that mean distance from the center of the target for Tory is more than for Adam.

Normal distribution z =   (x-μ)/σ       x ~ (μ,σ)

When x = 108

z = (123 - 108)/47  [Adam's  distances from the center of the target are normally distributed with a mean of 108mm and a standard deviation of Adam is 31mm.]

= 0.3191

P(x > 108) = P(z > - 0.3191)

                = 1 - 0.3191   [since the probability of the normal curve is 1 and to find the area under tory mean is greater than the Adam mean only if we subtract 1 from z value]

                = 0.6887

Hence, Using normal distribution, the probability of that mean distance from the center of the target for Tory is more than for Adam is 0.6887.

The quadratic function f(x)=ax^2+4x+c has a maximum at the point (1, 9) . What are the values of a and c?

Answers

Answer: a = -2  and  c = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

(this answer uses some basic calculus)

We know that [tex]f'(x) = 2ax + 4[/tex], and since [tex](1,9)[/tex] is a maximum of [tex]f[/tex], then [tex]f'(1) = 0[/tex]. That means [tex]2a + 4 = 0[/tex], so [tex]\boxed{a = -2}[/tex]. Then since [tex]f(1) = 9[/tex], we have [tex]-2(1)^2 + 4(1) + c = 9[/tex], so [tex]\boxed{c = 7}[/tex].

Answer:

a = -2

c = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic function, f(x) = ax² + 4x + c, for which its vertex is the maximum point occurring at (1, 9), and b = 4.

Solve for the value of a:

Since the x-coordinate of the vertex, x = 1, can be calculated using the formula, [tex]x = \frac{-b}{2a}[/tex]:

We can substitute the value of the x-coordinate and b = 4 into the formula, and solve for the value of a:

[tex]x = \frac{-b}{2a}[/tex]

[tex]1 = \frac{-4}{2a}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 2a:

(2a) 1 =  [tex]\frac{-4}{2a} (2a)[/tex]

2a = -4

Divide both sides by 2 to solve for a:

[tex]\frac{2a}{2} = \frac{-4}{2}[/tex]

a = -2

Therefore, the value of a = -2.

Solve for the value of c:

Next, to solve for c, substitute the coordinate values of the vertex, (1, 9) into the given quadratic function:

f(x) = ax² + 4x + c

9 = -2(1)² + 4(1) + c

9 = -2 + 4 + c

9 = 2 + c

Subtract 2 from both sides to isolate c:

9 - 2 = 2 - 2  + c

7 = c

Double-check:

In order to double-check the validity of our values for a and c, substitute a = -2, and c = 7 into the function, along with the coordinates of the vertex, (1, 9):

f(x) = -2x² + 4x + 7

9 = -2(1)² + 4(1) + 7

9 = -2 + 4 + 7

9 = 9 (True statement).

Therefore, the correct answers are: a = -2, and c = 7.

Which employee did not have the same dollar amount in sales for the month of February as the other two employees?
a.
Employee #1.
b.
Employee #2
c.
Employee #3
d.
They each had the same dollar amount in sales.

Answers

The employee who did not have the same dollar amount in sales for the month of February as the other two employees is (a) Employee 1.

What is Percentage?

Percentage is defined as the parts of a number per fraction of 100. We have to divide a number with it's whole and then multiply with 100 to calculate the percentage of any number.

Earnings of three employees in the month of February are :

Employee 1 = 4.7 = $4700

Employee 2 = 4.9 = $4900

Employee 3 = 4.4 = $4400

Earnings of employee 1 = $2,000 + 3% on all sales

Let the amount of all sales be x.

2000 + (3% x ) = 4700

2000 + 0.03x = 4700

0.03x = 2700

x = 90,000

Earnings of employee 2 = 7% on all sales

Let the amount of all sales be x.

0.07x = 4900

x = $70,000

Earnings of employee 3 = 5% on the first $40,000 + 8% on anything over $40,000

Let the amount of sales be 40,000 + x.

(0.05 × 40,000) + (0.08 x) = 4400

2000 + 0.08x = 4400

0.08x = 2400

x = $30,000

Amount of sales = $40,000 + $30,000 = $70,000

Hence employee 1 did not have the same amount as the other 2 in February.

Option 1: you unwrap the square , add like terms, and then recognize it's a parabola and find the coordinates of the vertex.

Or look at it as -3 + something ^2. It means you are adding something positive to -3, so the sum is greater or equal to -3, that is the definition of a minimum. At that point you find the minimum by setting that something equal to 0 (which gives you x = 8) and the value is -3 + 0 = -3

The base of a triangle is 7 inches more than its height. If the area of the triangle is 39 square inches, find the base and height of the triangle
The height of the triangle is

Answers

Answer:

the height of the triangle is 6 inches and the base is 7 inches greater, or the base is 13 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The general area-of-a-triangle formula is A = (1/2)(base)(height), or  = (1/2)bh.

Here b = h + 7.

Applying the area formula given above:  A = 39 in^2 = (1/2)(h + 7)(h), or

78 in^2 = h^2 + 7h,

Rewriting this, in standard quadratic form, we get h^2 + 7h - 78 = 0

                                                                             -7 ± (49 - 4[1][-78])

Applying the quadratic formula to find h:   h = ----------------------------

                                                                                          2

           -7 ± (49 + 312)        -7 ± 19

or h = ----------------------- = ------------- = {-13, 6}

                      2                       2

Discard the negative 13 root; the height must be a positive quantity.

Thus, the height of the triangle is 6 inches and the base is 7 inches greater, or the base is 13 in

It says that Anna can jump 35 times in one minute. It continues to say, that this value IS 70% as many as Alexander can jump in one minute. Thus, your equation should look like this:

x represents the number of jumps Alexander can do in one minute

35 = 0.70x
