The population of Shanghai is 5 times larger than population of Monterrey.

What is population?

Typically, the term "population" refers to the total number of people living in a particular area, be it a city or town, region, country, continent, or the entire world.

Main body:

The population of Monterrey, Mexico is  people = [tex]4*10^6[/tex]

The population of Shanghai, China is  people  = [tex]2*10^7[/tex]

To find how many times the population of Shanghai is lager than Monterrey.

In order to find how many times the population of Shanghai is lager than Monterrey we will find the ratio of populations of Shanghai and  Monterrey.

Thus we divide the population of Shanghai by the population of Monterrey to find how many time the population of Shanghai is larger.

Thus, we have:

[tex]\frac{2*10^7}{4*10^6}[/tex]

Simplifying by using properties of exponents.

⇒  [tex]\frac{2*10^7}{4*10^6}[/tex] , USING [tex]a^{x} -a^{y} =a^{(x-y)}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\frac{2*10}{4}[/tex]

⇒ 20/4

⇒ 5

Therefore, we can say that the population of Shanghai is 5 times larger than population of Monterrey.

34.99

Discount percentage:

25

%

Results

Discount:

$8.75

Final Price:

$26.24

Details

Discount = Original Price x Discount %/100

Discount = 34.99 × 25/100

Discount = 34.99 x 0.25

You save = $8.75

Final Price = Original Price - Discount

Final Price = 34.99 - 8.7475

Final Price = $26.24

- 7.5% = $24.27

The cost of the sweater after a 25% of discount and 7.5% of sales tax will be 28.21.

The amount of any product is given as though it was a proportion of a hundred. The ratio can be expressed as a quarter of 100. The phrase % translates to one hundred percent. It is symbolized by the character '%'.

The percentage is given as,

Percentage (P) = [Final value - Initial value] / Initial value x 100

A sweater priced at 34.99 is on sale for 25% off. Then the cost after the discount is calculated as,

⇒ (1 - 0.25) x 34.99

⇒ 26.24

If the sales tax is 7.5%. Then the cost after the sales tax is given as,

⇒ (1 + 0.075) x 26.2425

⇒ 28.21

The cost of the sweater after a 25% of discount and 7.5% of sales tax will be 28.21.

Two positive integers have gcd (a, b) = 15 and lcm (a, b) = 90. Those two numbers are 15 and 90 or 30 and 45.

Suppose we have 2 positive integers, a and b, then:

gcd (a, b) = the greatest common divisor = common prime factors of a and b

lcm (a, b) = the least common multiple = multiplication of the greatest common prime factors of a and b

In the given problem:

gcd (a, b) = 15

prime factorization of 15:

15 = 3 x 5

Hence,

a = 3 x 5 x ....

b = 3 x 5 x ....

lcm (a, b) = 90

prime factorization of 90:

90 = 3 x 5 x 2 x 3

Therefore the possible pairs of a and b are:

Combination 1:

a = 3 x 5 = 15

b = 3 x 5 x 2 x 3 = 90

Combination 2:

a = 3 x 5 x 2 = 30

The angle between the two vectors < 8, 3 > and < 4, −3 > is 57.43°

Given: vectors < 8, 3 > and < 4, −3 >

To find the angle between two vectors, we can use the dot product method:

First, you will compute the dot product and magnitudes of both vectors. Thus,

Let a = < 8, 3 > and b = < 4, −3 >

a · b = <8, 3> ·<4, -3> = 8(4) + (3)(-3) =  32-9 = 23

|a| = √(8² + 3²) = √(64+9) = √73

|b| = √(4² + (-3)²) = √(16 + 9) = √25 = 5

By using the angle between two vectors formula using dot product,

θ = cos⁻¹ [ (a · b) / (|a| |b|) ]

θ = cos⁻¹ (23 / √73 · 5)

θ  = cos⁻¹ (23/42.72) = 57.43°

Function:

A correspondence from one value x of the first set A to another value y of the second set B. It relates inputs to output is known as the function of the relation.

Given,

Here we have the function f(x) = 0.5|x - 4| - 3.

Now, we have to find the value of x when the value of f(x) = 7.

In order to find the value of x as have to equate the give function with the value of f(x), that is 7,

So, when we apply these on the function then we get,

=> 7 = 0.5|x - 4|-3

Now, we have to move all the numbers instead of x, then we get,

=> 7 + 3 = 0.5|x - 4|

=> 10 = 0.5 |x - 4|

=> 10/0.5 = |x - 4|

=> 20 = |x - 4|

So in this place we can get the following forms,

=> x - 4 = 20 and

=> x - 4 = - 20

Because we get two values being an absolute value function.

Now, we have to add 4 on both sides

Then we get

=> x - 4 + 4 = 20 + 4 and

=> x - 4 + 4 = - 20 + 4

So, the value of x is

Answer: We conclude that the mean commute time in the U.S. is less than half an hour. We are given a random sample of 500 people from the 2000 U.S. Census is selected who reported a non-zero commute time. In this sample, the mean commute time is 27.6 minutes with a standard deviation of 19.6 minutes.

So, Null Hypothesis,  :  30 minutes      {means that the mean commute time in the U.S. is more than or equal to half an hour}

Alternate Hypothesis,  :  < 30 minutes     {means that the mean commute time in the U.S. is less than half an hour}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample t-test statistics as we don't know about population standard deviation;

                          T.S. =    ~

where,  = sample mean commute time = 27.6 minutes

           s = sample standard deviation = 19.6 minutes

           n = sample of people from the 2000 U.S. Census = 500

So, the test statistics  =    ~

                                      =  -2.738

The value of t test statistic is -2.738.

Also, P-value of test statistics is given by the following formula;

          P-value = P(  < -1.645)

Since, we know that at large sample size, the t distribution follows like normal distribution, that means;

             P(  < -1.645)  =  P(Z < -1.645) = 1 - P(Z  1.645)

                                        =  1 - 0.95002 = 0.04998

Now, at 5% significance level the t table gives critical values of -1.645 at 499 degree of freedom for left-tailed test.

Since our test statistic is less than the critical value of t as -2.378 < -1.645, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the mean commute time in the U.S. is less than half an hour.

The function, g(x), has a constant rate of change and will increase at a faster rate than the function f(x) for all the values of x.  

Given:

g(x) = 5/2 x -3 ..... (1)

f(x) = - 3.5 at x = 0

So, putting the value of x=0 in equation (1) for comparison. We get,

g(x) at x = 0

=> g(x) = 5/2 x (0) - 3

=> g(x) = -3

In this value of x function g(x) is faster than function f(x) having a value equal to -3.5.

Similarly, put x = 1 in equation (1) for comparison. We get,

=> g(x) = 5/2 x (1) - 3

=> g(x) = (5-6)/2

=> g(x) = -1/2

In this value of x function g(x) is faster than function f(x) having a value equal to -1.

Similarly, put x = 2 in equation (1) for comparison. We get,

=> g(x) = 5/2 x (2) - 3

=> g(x) = (5-3)

=> g(x) = 2

In this value of x function g(x) is faster than function f(x) having a value equal to 1.5.

Similarly, put x = 3 in equation (1) for comparison. We get,

=> g(x) = 5/2 x (3) - 3

=> g(x) = (15/2 - 3)

=> g(x) = 7.5 - 3

=> g(x) = 4.5

In this value of x function g(x) is faster than function f(x) having a value equal to 4.

The greatest acceleration when the unbalanced force is applied will be experienced by the least weighted box ( i.e., the mass of 2 kg)

Acceleration: it is defined as rate of change of velocity with respect to time.

Unbalanced Force:  it means that the force applied in one direction is greatest than the force applied in the opposite direction.

Given that, F = 8n.

let us assume that the boxes are of 2kg, 4 kg, 6 kg and 8 kg.

According to the 2nd law of motion: the external unbalanced force is directly proportional to rate of change of momentum or Force is equal to the product of mass and acceleration.

                         F = m × a

                 ⇒     a = F/ m

where,  F is Force, m is mass and a is acceleration.

Now, acceleration of the box of 2kg = 8÷2 = 4 m/s²

         acceleration of the box of 4kg = 8÷ 4 = 2 m/m²

         acceleration of the box of 6 kg = 8÷ 6 = 1.34 m/s²

         acceleration of the box of 8kg = 8÷ 8 = 1 m/s²

∴ the box with mass of 2kg experience the greatest acceleration.

Given data;

A comparison of typical earnings for different professions can be found in the international average salary income database. The information is acquired from publications and reports that were obtained directly from governmental organizations, like the US Bureau of Labor Statistics or the ILO. Consider being informed that the standard deviation of the income of computer programmers in Canada is $458.60 and that a computer programmer in Canada making $2,063.30 has a z-score of 0.50 in comparison to other programmers in Canada. Consequently, the typical pay for computer programmers in Canada is. Assume you are also informed that the mean wage for computer programmers in Portugal is $1,387.40 and that a computer programmer in Portugal who earns $1,387.40 has a z-core of 2.00 in comparison to other computer programmers in Portugal is $925.

Since, the salaries are relative and we know that the z-score is given by;

z = X - μ / σ

0.50 = 2063.30 - μ / 458.60

μ = 2063.30 - 229.3

μ = 1834

As, the salaries are relevant so;

2 = 1387.40 - 925 / σ

σ = 462.4/2

σ = 231.2

Hence, the mean and standard deviation of the case is 1834 and 231.2 respectively.
