Last year at a certain high school, there were 60 boys on the honor roll and 100 girls on the honor roll. This year, the number of boys on the honor roll increased by 20% and the number of girls on the honor roll increased by 3%. By what percentage did the total number of students on the honor roll increase? round your answer to the nearest tenth (if necessary).

Answers

Answer 1

The percent increase in the total number of students on the honor roll is   9.4% .

In the question,

it is given that ,

last year , the number of boys in the honor roll is = 60 boys ,

the number of girls in the honor roll is = 100 girls ,

total number of students last year = 160

percent increase in the number of boys in the honor roll is = 20% ,

so , number of boys become = 60 + (0.20*60) = 72 boys ,

percent increase in the number of girls in the honor roll is = 3% ,

so , number of girls become = 100 + (0.03*100) = 103 girls ,

total number of students this year = 103 + 72 = 175 .

increase in number of students = 175 - 160 = 15

So , percent increase is = (15/160) × 100

= 0.09375 × 100

= 9.375 %

≈ 9.4%

Therefore , the percent increase is 9.4% .

Answers

The polygons (quadrilaterals) are similar by the congruency of three interior angles and the equal ratios (5 : 4) of  a pair of adjacent sides. The correct option is therefore

B. Yes; PQSN ~ AGKD, scale factor; 5 : 4

What are similar polygons?

Similar polygons are polygons that have the same interior angle, and proportional dimensions.

The specified parameters indicate that we have;

Polygon PQSN and AGKD are quadrilaterals

Length of sides of polygon PQSN

Length of side PQ = 10, QS = 7.5, SN = 15, NP = 15

Length of sides of polygon AGKD

AG = 12, GK = 12, KD = 8, DA = 6

The measure of the angles are;

∠K ≅∠S

∠S ≅ ∠A

∠N = ∠G = 90°

The angle sum property of a quadrilateral indicates that the measure of the fourth angle of both quadrilateral are congruent

The ratio of two adjacent sides of the quadrilaterals are;

7.5/6 and 10/8

7.5/6 = 1.25

10/8 = 1.25

Therefore;

[tex]\dfrac{7.5}{6} =\dfrac{10}{8} =1.25[/tex]

The ratio of two adjacent sides of the quadrilaterals PQSN and AGKD are therefore the same.

The three interior angles of quadrilateral PQSN are congruent to three interior angles of quadrilateral AGKD, and the ratio of two adjacent sides from each quadrilateral are the same, therefore,  quadrilaterals are PQSN is similar to quadrilateral AGKD

a jar contains 10 blue marbles and 11 red marbles. two marbles are drawn without replacement. what is the probability of getting two red marbles?

Answers

0.2620 is the probability of getting two red marbles.

What is probability?

Probability is a mathematical discipline that concerns with numerical figures of how probable an occurrence is to occur or how probably a statement is to be true. A number between 0 and 1 is the probability of an occurrence, where, broadly speaking, 0 denotes the event's impossibility and 1 denotes its certainty.

a jar contains 10 blue marbles and 11 red marbles.

So, there total 21 marbles are present.

Now among 21 marbles, 11 are red marble. So, odds of a red on the first are 11/21

Next, there are 20 marbles are present and 10 are red. So odds of a red on the second is 10/20.

For, probability both are red, just multiply

= (11/21) x (10/20)

= 0.2620.

10 post hole that are 3 feet deep and 1 foot across with a pipe down the center that is 3 inches in diameter

Answers

The total volume of all 10 holes and pipes is about 24.135 cubic feet.

What is Volume?

Generally, To calculate the volume of the holes, you can use the formula for the volume of a cylinder:

Volume = π * radius^2 * height

In this case, the radius of the hole is 0.5 feet (since the hole is 1 foot across and the diameter of the pipe is 3 inches, which is 0.25 feet), and the height is 3 feet. Plugging these values into the formula, we get:

Volume = π * 0.5^2 * 3 = 0.785 * 3 = 2.355 cubic feet

So each hole has a volume of about 2.355 cubic feet. To find the total volume of all 10 holes, you can simply multiply this number by 10:

Total volume = 2.355 * 10 = 23.55 cubic feet

This is the volume of the holes themselves, not including the volume of the pipes. To find the volume of the pipes, you can use the same formula, but with the radius of the pipe (which is 1.5 inches, or 0.125 feet) and the length of the pipe (which is 3 feet).

Volume = π * 0.125^2 * 3 = 0.0195 * 3 = 0.0585 cubic feet

So the volume of one pipe is about 0.0585 cubic feet. To find the total volume of all 10 pipes, you can multiply this number by 10:

Total volume = 0.0585 * 10 = 0.585 cubic feet

23.55 + 0.585 = 24.135 cubic feet.

What transformations were applied to the parent function k(x)=x| to obtain f(x)= -1/2|x+3/-1.​

Answers

Answer:

The transformations applied to the parent function k(x)=x| to obtain f(x)= -1/2|x+3/-1 are reflection in the y-axis, vertical stretching by a factor of 1/2, and a horizontal shift of 3 units to the right.

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain f(x) from k(x), we first reflect k(x) in the y-axis, which changes the sign of the function and flips it over the x-axis. This gives us -k(x). Next, we vertically stretch the graph of -k(x) by a factor of 1/2. This makes the graph of -k(x) taller and narrower. Finally, we shift the graph of -k(x) 3 units to the right. This moves the entire graph 3 units to the right on the x-axis. The resulting function is f(x)=-1/2|x+3/-1.To understand why these transformations were applied, it's helpful to consider the effect of each transformation on the graph of k(x)=x|. Reflecting in the y-axis flips the graph over the x-axis and changes the sign of the function, so it becomes -k(x). Vertical stretching by a factor of 1/2 makes the graph of -k(x) taller and narrower. Finally, shifting the graph of -k(x) 3 units to the right moves the entire graph 3 units to the right on the x-axis. This results in the graph of f(x)=-1/2|x+3/-1.

Answer:

(Assuming it is k(x) = |x| and f(x) = -1/2|x+3| -1

Scale vertically by a factor of -1/2

Shift left 3

Shift down 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The -1/2 is multiplied by everything, so it scales the graph vertically by -1/2. The -1 is again, everything(as opposed to just modifying the x), so it shifts the graph down by 1.

The + 3 is a little more confusing. Basically, x would have to be x-3(which is shifting the graph left) in order to retain the same x-value(to make the equation true) for the same value. This is the same for y, but we usually isolate y so it doesn't come up as often. If we add 1 to both sides, we get [tex]f(x) + 1= -1/2|x+3|[/tex], and for the same reasoning the graph would shift down 1 even though it is f(x) + 1, because for the same x-value the y-value would need to be 1 less to make the equation to hold true.

Number of American adults surveyed (sample size) 'n' = 200

Percentage of people who believes in aliens 'p'= 72%

                                                                               = 0.72

Percentage  of people who don't believes in aliens ' 1 - p'  = 1 - 72%

                                                                                                 = 28%

                                                                                                 = 0.28

95% Confidence interval that represents percent of people believes in aliens

Z - score of 95% confidence interval = ± 1.96

Margin of error = (z-score)√p ( 1- p) /n

                          = ( 1.96)√(0.72 × 0.28)/ 200

                          = 1.96 ( 0.032)

                  = 0.657

Upper limit =  p + Margin of error

                  = 0.72 + 0.063

Answers

If a fair coin is flipped several times until it lands on heads and the likelihood of such outcome is 50%, the probability of the coin landing on heads for the first time is 1/8.

what is probability ?

There are four primary categories of probability: classical, empirical, subjective, and axiomatic. Since possibility and probability are equivalent, you may define probability as the likelihood that a specific event will occur.

given

A fair coin is repeatedly flipped until it comes up heads.

The coin is impartial.

On the third try, we need to calculate the likelihood of the first landing being on heads.

We are aware that each flip of a fair coin is independent of the others, and that each effort results in P(H) = P(T) = 0.5.

Required probability is the likelihood that the third attempt's first landing will be on heads.

= Chance of (I two trials result in tail and third result in head)

=P(I head) P(II head) P(III tail) (since each trial is independent)

= ( 1 /2 ) (1/2)(1/2) = (1/8 )

If a fair coin is flipped several times until it lands on heads and the likelihood of such outcome is 50%, the probability of the coin landing on heads for the first time is 1/8.

a)[tex]$z=\frac{40.5-40}{\frac{1.25}{\sqrt{10}}}=1.265$[/tex]

Now we can calculate the p value since we have a right tailed test the p values is given by:

[tex]p_v=P(Z > 1.265)=1-P(Z < 1.265)=1-0.897=0.1029[/tex]

And since the [tex]$p_v > \alpha$[/tex] we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis. So then there is not evidence to support the claim that the mean is greater than 40 .

b) [tex]$p_v=P(Z > 1.265)=1-P(Z < 1.265)=1-0.897=0.1029$[/tex]

c) [tex]$\beta=P\left(Z < 1.645-\frac{2 \sqrt{10}}{1.25}\right)=P(Z < -3.409)=0.000326$[/tex]

d) We want to ensure that the probability of error type II not exceeds 0.1, and for this case we can use the following formula:

[tex]n=\frac{\left(z_\alpha+z_s\right)^2 \sigma^2}{(x-\mu)^2}[/tex]

The true mean for this case is [tex]$\mu=44$[/tex] and we want [tex]$\beta < 0.1$[/tex] so then [tex]$z_{1-0.1}=z_{0.9}=1.29$[/tex] represent the value on the normal standard distribution that accumulates 0.1 of the area on the right tail. And we can replace like this:

[tex]n=\frac{(1.65+1.29)^2 1.25^2}{(44-40)^2}=0.844 \approx 1[/tex]

e) For this case we can calculate a one sided confidence interval given by:

[tex]$\left(-\infty, \bar{x}+z_\alpha \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\right)$[/tex]

And if we replace we got:

[tex]$40.5+1.65 \frac{1.25}{\sqrt{10}}=41.152$[/tex]

And the confidence interval would be [tex]$(-\infty, 41.152)$[/tex]

And since 40 is on the confidence interval we don't have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis on this case.

What is null hypothesis?

In a scientific setting, a hypothesis (plural: hypotheses) is a testable claim about the relationship between two or more variables or a suggested explanation for a phenomenon that has been observed.

Part a

We have the following data given:

n=10 represent the sample size

[tex]$\bar{x}=40.5$[/tex] represent the sample mean

[tex]$\sigma=1.25$[/tex]represent the population deviation.

We want to test the following hypothesis:

Null: [tex]$\mu \leq 40$[/tex]

Alternative: [tex]$\mu > 40$[/tex]

The significance level provided was [tex]$\alpha=0.05$[/tex]

The statistic for this case since we have the population deviation is given by:[tex]z=\frac{\bar{x}-\mu}{\frac{-\mu}{\sqrt{n}}}$[/tex]

If we replace the values given we got:

[tex]$z=\frac{40.5-40}{\frac{1.24}{\sqrt{10}}}=1.265$[/tex]

Now we can calculate the p value since we have a right tailed test the p values is given by:

[tex]p_v=P(Z > 1.265)=1-P(Z < 1.265)=1-0.897=0.1029[/tex]

And since the [tex]$p_v > \alpha$[/tex] we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis. So then there is not evidence to support the claim that the mean is greater than 40 .

Part b

The p value on this case is given by:

[tex]p_v=P(Z > 1.265)=1-P(Z < 1.265)=1-0.897=0.1029[/tex]

Part c

For this case the probability of type II error is defined as the probability of incorrectly retaining the null hypothesis and is defined like this:

[tex]\beta=P\left(Z < z_\alpha-\frac{(x-\mu) \sqrt{n}}{\sigma}\right)[/tex]

Where [tex]$z_\alpha=1.645$[/tex]represent the critical value for the test that accumulates 0.05 of the area on the right tail of the normal standard distribution.

The true mean on this case is assumed [tex]$\mu=42$[/tex], so then we can replace like this:

[tex]\beta=P\left(Z < 1.645-\frac{2 \sqrt{10}}{1.25}\right)=P(Z < -3.409)=0.000326$$[/tex]

Part d

We want to ensure that the probability of error type II not exceeds 0.1, and for this case we can use the following formula:

[tex]n=\frac{\left(z_\alpha+z_\beta\right)^2 \sigma^2}{(x-\mu)^2}[/tex]

The ture mean for this case is [tex]$\mu=44$[/tex] and we want [tex]$\beta < 0.1$[/tex] so then [tex]$z_{1-0.1}=z_{0.9}=1.29$[/tex] represent the value on the normal standard distribution that accumulates 0.1 of the area on the right tail. And we can replace like this:

[tex]n=\frac{(1.65+1.29)^2 1.25^2}{(44-40)^2}=0.844 \approx 1[/tex]

Part e

For this case we can calculate a one sided confidence interval given by:

[tex]\left(-\infty, \bar{x}+z_\alpha \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\right)[/tex]

And if we replace we got:

[tex]40.5+1.65 \frac{1.25}{\sqrt{10}}=41.152[/tex]

Algebra: What Is It?

Mathematical branch known as algebra deals with symbols and arithmetic operations on them. These symbols are referred to as variables because they lack fixed values. We frequently observe certain values that change in our day-to-day problems. However, there is a continuing need to depict these shifting values. These values are frequently represented in algebra by symbols, which are known as variables, such as x, y, z, p, or q.

Take into account all positive numbers that are multiples of 10 and have a value lower than or equal to 200.

Let x be the quantity of positive integers that are multiples of 10. The equation then becomes

10x ≤ 200

The value of the x will then be.

x ≤ 20

Below is a list of the numbers.

Set = 20 {10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120, 130, 140, 150, 160, 170, 180, 190, 200}

The set that can be divided by 15 is

Set = 6 {30, 6,0 90, 120, 150, 180}

So, the percentage of those integers that are multiples of 15 will be

⇒ 6 / 20

⇒ 3/10

3/10 will be the proportion of those integers that are multiples of 15. Then, C is the best choice.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\boxed{\begin{minipage}{9 cm}\underline{General form of an Exponential Equation}\\\\$y=ab^x$\\\\where:\\\phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $a$ is the initial value ($y$-intercept). \\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $b$ is the base (growth/decay factor) in decimal form.\\\end{minipage}}[/tex]

The given scenario can be modelled as an exponential equation.

Let y be the area the fire covers (in meters squared).

Let x by the time (in hours).

If the fire currently covers an area of 32 m² then the initial value, a, is 32.

If the area covered by the fire increases by 17% each hour, then the growth factor, b, is 1.17 (since an increase of 17% is 117% of the previous amount).

Therefore:

a = 32b = 1.17

Substitute the values of a and b into the exponential formula:

[tex]y=32(1.17)^x[/tex]

To find the area that the first covers in 20 hours' time, simply substitute x=20 into the equation:

[tex]\implies y=32(1.17)^{20}[/tex]

[tex]\implies y=32(23.1055991...)[/tex]

[tex]\implies y=739.37917...[/tex]

Therefore, the area the fire will cover in 20 hours' time is 739 m²  (nearest 1 m²).

Miles is shopping for a new computer. He finds a computer with an original price of $325. 00 but finds that it is 15% off. After paying a 7% sales tax, how much does miles spend on his new computer?.

Answers

Miles has to spend $295.3375 on his new computer.

Sales tax is applied to the price after the discount is applied because discounts are typically provided directly by the retailer and lower both the sales price and the money the retailer receives.

So Original price of Computer  is $325.00

Discount with computer is 15% off.

15% of $325 is (325*15)/100 = $48.75.

Price of computer after discount = 325-48.75 =$276.25

Now sales tax will be applied on this price.

7% sales tax = 0.07

amount of sales tax = 276.25*0.07 = 19.3375

Price of Computer after sales tax   = 276+19.3375 = 295.3375.

For a long time, no one seemed to have thought of usingsteam for transportation purposes. In the earlier historical records, there ismention of "he ngines, which were used for organ blowing, the turning ofspits, and like poses. But from this early date until the 17th century.practically no progress was made in the use of steam. Though men hadexperimented with steam up to this time with more or less success, the worldis chiefly indebted for the developed type of the steam engine to James Wattand George Stephenson.James Watt, who secured the position as a maker of scientific instrumentsin the University of Glasgow, proposed an idea for improving the existingsteam engine, which was used for pumping mines. For a long time, owing to alack of money, he had difficulty in establishing the merits of hisimprovements. Finally, he formed a partnership with Matthew Boulton, awealthy and energetic man who lived at Birmingham, England. They beganthe manufacture of steam engines at Birmingham, under the firm name ofBoulton and Watt. This partnership was very successful. Watt supplied theinventions; Boulton furnished the money and attended to the business.Before the time of Watt, the steam engine was exclusively a steam pump-slow and wasteful of fuel. Watt made it a quick, powerful, and efficientengine, requiring only a fourth as much fuel as before. Under his first patentthe engine was still used only as a steam pump, but his later improvementsadapted it for driving stationary machinery of all kinds. The commercialsuccess of his engine was soon fully established.George Stephenson further modified Boulton and Watt Company'screation Stephenson initiated the use of steam for carrying passengers andgoods. In September 1825, the first train passed over the road. It consisted ofthirty-four cars weighing, all told, ninety tons. The train was pulled byStephenson's engine, operated by Stephenson himself, with a signalmanriding on horseback in advance. The train moved off at the rate of ten ortwelve miles an hour, and on certain parts of the road it reached a speed offifteen miles per hour.
