1. The mass of lab sample A is 2.4 x 10^-2 kg. The mass of lab sample B is 3.6 x 10^2kg. Given that
information, Jason says that sample B is 15 times the mass of sample A. Narissa asserts that sample B is 15,000 times that of sample A. Julius states that sample B is 1.5 times greater than sample A. Compare the masses of the two samples to decide who is correct. State which person is correct and
explain your answer using mathematics.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Given:

[tex]\textsf{Mass of Sample A}=2.4 \times 10^{-2}[/tex][tex]\textsf{Mass of Sample B}=3.6 \times 10^{2}[/tex]

As the exponent of Sample A is negative, this means that the mass of Sample A is smaller than that of Sample B.

Therefore, to find the proportional relationship between the samples, divide the mass of the larger sample (B) by the mass of the smaller sample (A):

[tex]\begin{aligned}\implies \dfrac{\textsf{Sample B}}{\textsf{Sample A}}=\dfrac{3.6 \times 10^2}{2.4 \times 10^{-2}} & =\dfrac{3.6}{2.4} \times \dfrac{10^2}{10^{-2}}\\\\ & =1.5 \times 10^{(2-(-2))}\\\\& = 1.5 \times 10^4 \end{aligned}[/tex]

To convert the scientific notation [tex]1.5 \times 10^4[/tex] to a decimal, move the decimal point to the right 4 places:

[tex]\implies 1.5000 \times 10^4=15000[/tex]

(If the exponent is positive, move the decimal point to the right.  If the exponent is negative, move the decimal point to the left. The number of places to move the decimal point is the numerical value of the exponent).

Therefore, the mass of sample B is 15,000 times the mass of sample A, so Narissa is correct.

A rectangle has sides measuring (12x - 2) units and (x + 8) units.

Part B: What is the expression that represents the perimeter of the rectangle? Show your work. (5 points)

Part C: What are the degree and classification of the expression obtained in Part A? (3 points)

Answers

The area equation is:

A = (12x - 2)*(x + 8)

Which is a polynomial of degree 2, and the perimeter is:

P = 26x + 12

How to write the area of the rectangle?

Remember that for a rectangle of length L and width W, the area is written as:

A = L*W

Here we know that:

L = (12x - 2)

W = (x + 8)

Then the equation for the area is:

A = (12x - 2)*(x + 8).

How to write the perimeter?

For a rectangle of length L and width W, the perimeter is:

P = 2*(L + W).

Replacing what we know, we get:

P = 2*(12x - 2 + x + 8) = 2*(13x + 6) = 26x + 12

What are the degree and classification of the area equation?

The area equation is:

A = (12x - 2)*(x + 8).

Notice that this is a polynomial that is made of the product of two polynomials of degree 1, so this is a polynomial of degree 2.

Use the box plots comparing the number of boy dogs and number of girl dogs attending doggy daycare each day for a month to answer the questions.

Answers

The boxplots 1 and 2 represent the distribution of data using a five number summary for the male and the female attendance.

What will be the solution?

(a) The IQR of the male's data

The first box plot represents the male's boxplot.

So, we have:

Upper quartile (Q3) = 14

Lower quartile (Q1) = 2

The IQR is the difference between the above values

IQR = Q3 - Q1

So, we have:

IQR = 14 - 2 = 12

So: the IQR for the males' data is 12

(b) The difference in the median values

From the first and second boxplots, we have:

Median male = 10

Median female = 18

The difference (d) between these values is

d = 18 - 10

d = 8

So: the difference between the median values of each data set is 8

(c) The distribution of data

This is dependent on whether the dataset has an outlier or not.

From the figure, we have:

Male's data: presence of an outlier - use median

Female's data: absence of an outlier - use mean

So: the male dataset is measured by median, while the mean is a better measure of center for the female's data

(d) Reason for outliers

A possible reason for outliers is sampling problems

When hired at a new job selling electronics, you are given two pay options: • Option A: Base salary of $10,000 a year with a commission of 9% of your sales • Option B: Base salary of $20,000 a year with a commission of 4% of your sales How much electronics would you need to sell for option A to produce a larger income? Enter your answer as an inequality using the variable x to represent electronics sales in dollars. Do not enter any commas in your answer.

Answers

Using linear functions, it is found that the number of electronics that you need to sell for a larger income in option A is x > 200,000.

What is a linear function?

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

Considering the base salaries as the intercept and the commissions as the slope, the functions are given by:

A(x) = 10000 + 0.09x.B(x) = 20000 + 0.04x.

To produce a larger income in option A, it is needed that:

A(x) > B(x).

Hence:

10000 + 0.09x > 20000 + 0.04x

0.05x > 10000

x > 10000/0.05

x > 200,000

I need help on this question and please explain what I got wrong so I understand and what I'm supposed to do.​

Answers

Answer:

A. 64

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, you're trying to find out what b is.

With the information that you have, you know that the answer will be 16, and your denominator (what you'll be dividing by) is 4. What you got wrong in this was thinking of it as "what times 4 equals 16", to which you got the answer 4 because 4*4=16. But, that's not exactly what you're supposed to be doing.

If we looked at it like that in this problem, you'd have b=4, making the equation then look like 4/4=16. This isn't true because 4/4=1.

Instead, to get the correct answer, you'll be multiplying 4, the denominator, by 16, our solution. With this, you'll get the answer A. 64.

If you have any more questions, feel free to reach out for help.

Answer:

We are given an equation of [tex]\frac{b}{4} = 16[/tex] and we need to determine what b is.  The way that we would do this is what you did and we would multiply both sides by 4 which would get rid of the 4 in the fraction and this would end up multiplying 16 by 4 giving us [tex]b=64[/tex].  This would best match with option A which is 64.

A random sample of 87 eighth grade students’ scores on a national mathematics assessment
test has a mean score of 283. The test results prompts a state school administrator to declare
that the mean score for the eighth graders on the exam is more than 280. Assume the
population deviation is 37. At α = 0.14, is there enough evidence to support the administrator’s
claim?

Answers

There is not enough evidence to support the administrator’s claim and the true mean is not significantly greater than 280.

What is a statistical hypothesis?

A hypothesis to test the given parameters requires that we determine if the mean score of the eighth graders is more than 283, thus:

The null hypothesis:

[tex]\mathbf{H_o \leq 283}[/tex]

The alternative hypothesis:

[tex]\mathbf{H_i > 283}[/tex]

From the population deviation, the Z test for the true mean can be computed as:

[tex]\mathbf{Z = \dfrac{\hat X - \mu _o}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Z = \dfrac{283 -280}{\dfrac{37}{\sqrt{87}}}}[/tex]

Z = 0.756

Note that, since we are carrying out a right-tailed test, the p-value for the test statistics is expressed as follows:

P(z > 0.756)

P = 0.225

Since the P-value is greater than the significance level at α = 0.14, we can conclude that there is not enough evidence to support the administrator’s claim and the true mean is not significantly greater than 280.

In an arithmetic sequence, the sum of the second and eighth terms is $5$, and the product of the fourth and fifth terms is also $5$. What is the $20$th term of this sequence?

Answers

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $a_n$ be the $n$th term of this sequence. We know $a_2 + a_8 = 5$, and that forces $a_5 = \dfrac 5 2$, the average of these terms.

Then $a_4a_5 = 5$ gives us $a_4 = 2$.

The common difference is $\dfrac 1 2$, and in general, $a_n = \dfrac n 2$.

Therefore the $20$th term is $\dfrac{20}{2} = \boxed{10}$.

The 20th term of the arithmetic sequence will be equal to [tex]T_{20}=10[/tex]

What is arthematic sequence?

Arthematic sequence is the type of the number series in which the difference between the first and the second term is always constant in the whole series.

Let [tex]$a_n$[/tex]  be the nth term of this sequence.

We know

[tex]$a_2 + a_8 = 5$[/tex], and that forces  [tex]$a_5 = \dfrac 5 2$[/tex],  the average of these terms.

Then [tex]$a_4a_5 = 5$[/tex] gives us   [tex]a_4 = 2$.[/tex]

The common difference is  [tex]\dfrac 1 2$,[/tex]and in general,  [tex]$a_n = \dfrac n 2$[/tex].

Therefore the 20th term is

[tex]T_{20}=$\dfrac{20}{2} = \boxed{10}$.[/tex]
