A poll conducted the day before the student- body presidential election at a midwestern university showed that 53.9 percent favored Mario, the rest favoring Yin Ling. The margin of error was 4.2 percentage points. Should Yin Ling have conceded the election?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval of the percentage of people that favored Mario = number of votes favoring Mario ± Margin of error

The confidence interval = 53.9% ± 4.2% = (49.7%, 58.1%)

This means that between 49.7% to 58.1% of the people would have voted for Mario.

Hence Yin Ling would not have won the election, since there is a probability that 50% would have voted for Mario

A coordinate plane is shown. Triangle PQR has vertices P at negative 6 comma 6, Q at negative 6 comma 3, and R at negative 3 comma 3. Triangle P prime Q prime R prime has vertices at P prime negative 2 comma 2, Q prime at negative 2 comma 1, and R prime at negative 1 comma 1. What is the scale factor of dilation?

Answers

Answer:

The scale factor of dilation from ΔPQR to ΔP'Q'R' is 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The vertices of ΔPQR are;

P(-6, 6), Q(-6, 3), and R(-3, 3) and the coordinates of ΔP'Q'R' are P'(-2, 2), Q'(-2, 1), and R'(-1, 1)

Given that the length, l, of each side of the triangles is given by the formula for calculating length given the vertices we have;

[tex]l = \sqrt{\left (y_{2}-y_{1} \right )^{2}+\left (x_{2}-x_{1} \right )^{2}}[/tex]

For side PQ, we have;

(x₁, y₁) = (-6, 6), (x₂, y₂) = (-6, 3)

Given that the points have equal y-values, the length is the difference of their x-values as follows;

[tex]l_{PQ}[/tex] = 6 - 3 = 3

Similarly, length QR is the difference in the y-values, since the x-values are equal. therefore, we have;

[tex]l_{QR}[/tex] = -3 - (-6) = 3

Length PR is given as follows;

(x₁, y₁) = (-6, 6), (x₂, y₂) = (-3, 3)

[tex]l_{PR} = \sqrt{\left (3-6 \right )^{2}+\left (-3-(-6) \right )^{2}} = \sqrt{18} = 3\cdot \sqrt{2}[/tex]

[tex]l_{PR}[/tex] = 3·√2

For P'Q', we have

P'(-2, 2), Q'(-2, 1)

[tex]l_{P'Q'}[/tex] = 2 - 1 = 1

[tex]l_{P'Q'}[/tex] = 1

For Q'R', we have

Q'(-2, 1), R'(-1, 1)

[tex]l_{Q'R'}[/tex] = -1 - (-2) = -1 + 2 = 1

[tex]l_{Q'R'}[/tex] = 1

For P'R', we have;

P'(-2, 2), R'(-1, 1)

[tex]l_{P'R'} = \sqrt{\left (1-2 \right )^{2}+\left (-1-(-2) \right )^{2}} = \sqrt{2} = \sqrt{2}[/tex]

[tex]l_{P'R'}[/tex] = √2

Therefore, given that we have

PQ/(P'Q') = PR/(P'R') = 3/1 = 3 and QR/(Q'R') = 3·√2/(√2) = 3

The scale factor of dilation from ΔPQR to ΔP'Q'R' = 1/3.

Maggie‘s brother is 11 years younger than four times her age. The sum of their ages is 54. How old is Maggie?

Answers

Answer:

Maggie is 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Honestly, I just kept trying ages starting from 10 because I knew it wasn't going to be less than that. Then I did whatever age, in this case 13, and multiply it by  4. Then minus 11 from that number. Then take that end number and add it to the beginning number(maggies age) and you should get 54.

Math Equation Explanation:

13*4 = 52                           (Maggies Age) x 4

52-11= 41                            The question stated that Maggie's brother was 11                                             -------------------------------------years younger than her age times 4.

41 + 13 =54                          The sum of both their ages.

The distance light travels in one year is known as a light year. A light year is equal to 5.87 × 1012 miles. The closest that Earth ever gets to Jupiter is 3.65 × 108 miles. What is a correct representation of the number of years it will take light to travel from Earth to Jupiter at this distance? Check all that apply.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]6.21\times 10^{-5}\ \text{light years}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance light travels in one year is known as a light year.

[tex]1\ \text{light year}=5.87\times 10^{12}\ \text{miles}[/tex]

The closest that Earth ever gets to Jupiter is [tex]3.65\times 10^8\ \text{miles}[/tex]

[tex]3.65\times 10^8\ \text{miles}=\dfrac{1}{5.87\times 10^{12}}\times 3.65\times 10^8\ \text{light years}\\\\=6.21\times 10^{-5}\ \text{light years}[/tex]

Hence, the distance it will take light to travel from Earth to Jupiter at this distance is [tex]6.21\times 10^{-5}\ \text{light years}[/tex]

Answers

Answer: Pink choice: y= -6x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to be parallel, the slope must be the same. You find the slope as the number or fraction connected to x. ("co-efficient" of x in math talk)

In the given equation, that is -6.  (So that knocks out the first two choices)

The other thing to look at is the y-value of the given coordinate,(-1,4)

(The y-value is the second number in the coordinate (x.y) is the pattern)

and compare it to the the last number in the equations in the choices and     Here the Yellow choice has y= -6x + 4 so this line can't pass through the coordinate given, because  +4 in this equation is where the line crosses the y-axis. ("y-intercept"  in math talk)  So yellow choice is out!

The attachment shows what the graphs of the choices look like.

The black line is the correct answer. The given coordinate (-1,4) is the labeled red spot. The blue line is the given equation. (You can see where it "intercepts the y-axis on the +3)   And the green line also has the -6 slope, but misses the point and intercepts the y-axis at 4.)    

I hope the diagram and explanation helps you understand better. It can be confusing.

a printer can print 12 pages in 9 seconds what is the closest estimate of the number of pages it can print in 1 min

Answers

Answer:

estimated number of pages it can print will 80 in 1 min.

Step-by-step explanation:

If 12 pages/9 Seconds then by multiplying by 60 secs as there are 60 secs in 1 min.

we get

12/9 then multiply by 60 you will get 80 pages in 1 minute.

Number of pages a printer can print in 9 seconds = 12 pages

Number of pages than can be printed in 1 second =

= 12/9

= 1.3 pages

Number of pages that can be printed in 1 second = 0.75 page

Number of pages that can be printed in 1 minute =

= 1 minute = 60 seconds

Number of pages that can be printed in 60 seconds =

= 1.3 × 60

= 78 pages

Rounding off 78 , we get 80 .

Therefore , 80 pages can be printed in 1 minute .

A carpenter has less than 120 minutes to spend painting furniture each day. Today, he has spent 30.5 minutes painting a desk. Now he will paint x chairs, each of which takes 12.5 minutes. What is the maximum number of chairs the carpenter can paint?

Answers

Answer:

Maximum number of chairs is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told he has less than 120 minutes to spend painting furniture each day.

Now he has spent 30.5 minutes painting a desk.

Also, he wants to paint "x" number of chairs with each chair taking 12.5 minutes.

Thus, we have;

30.5 + 12.5x < 120

Subtract 30.5 from both sides to get;

12.5x < 120 - 30.5

12.5x < 89.5

x < 89.5/12.5

x < 7.16

Thus, maximum number of chairs he can paint is 7

The constant of proportionality of the graph is 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the points on the lines are;

(400, 300), (250, 187.5), and (120, 90)

Which can be written in a tabular form as follows;

Number of US dollars   [tex]{}[/tex]                       Number of euros

120                                 [tex]{}[/tex]                        90

400                                [tex]{}[/tex]                        300

Given that the graph is a straight line graph, we can represent the graph with the straight line equation, y = m·x + c

Where;

c = The y-intercept (where the graph meets the y-axis) = 0

m = The slope = The constant of proportionality

[tex]Slope, \, m =\dfrac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex]

[tex]m =\dfrac{300-90}{400-120} = \dfrac{210}{280} = 0.75[/tex]

We have, y = m·x = 0.75·x.

Therefore, the constant of proportionality of the graph = 0.75.

Two pounds of raw materials are needed to produce one product. The desired ending balance of raw materials is 10% of the of the next month's production needs. (Refer to your answer in Activity Sheet 05). The beginning inventory of raw materials is 4,000 pounds and raw material cost per unit is P 0.50/per pound.

Answers

Answer:

Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Two pounds of raw materials are needed to produce one product.

The desired ending balance of raw materials is 10% of the next month's production needs.

The beginning inventory of raw materials is 4,000 pounds.

The raw material cost per unit is $0.50 per pound.

To calculate the direct material purchase required for a given month, we need the production for each month. I will provide the formula and a small example to guide an answer.

To calculate the purchase required, we need to use the following formula:

Purchases= production + desired ending inventory - beginning inventory

For example:

Production:

January= 5,000 units

February= 4,500 units

Direct material purchases January:

Production= 5,000*2= 10,000

Desired ending inventory= (4,500*2)*0.1= 900

Beginning inventory= (4,000)

Total purchase in pounds= 6,900

Total direct material cost= 6,900*0.5= $3,450
