Answers

Answer 1

There are 5,000 nails in five boxes. The first and second boxes have 2,700 nails altogether. The second and third boxes have 2,000 nails altogether. The third and fourth boxes have 1,800 nails altogether. The fourth and fifth boxes have 1,700 nails altogether. How many nails are in each box

Purchases of both small and large boxes total:

two little boxes.

six huge boxes

Two equations must be created with the given data in order to answer the unknowns:

150X + 400Y = 2700 (the price of the boxes and the total number of nails, where X is the small boxes and Y the large boxes)

Y = 3X

Equation one is then changed to equation 2, and variable X is eliminated:

150X + 400 (3X) = 2700

150X + 1200X = 2700 1350X = 2700 X = 2700/1350 X = 2

In order to determine the number of big boxes, equation 2's value of X is finally changed:

Y = 3X

Y = 3

Y = 6

Is the power set of {2,3,4,5} a subset of the power set of {1,2,3,4,5,6}? Why or why not?

Answers

we get that the power set of {2, 3, 4, 5} a subset of the power set of {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.

We are given a power set:

A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

We are also given another power set:

B = {2, 3, 4, 5}

We need to tell if B is a subset of A or not.

We can see that every element of B is a part of A as well.

So, we can say that B is a subset of A.

B ⊂ A

{2, 3, 4, 5} ⊂ {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}

Therefore, we get that the power set of {2, 3, 4, 5} a subset of the power set of {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.

A textile fiber manufacturer is investigating a new drapery yarn, which the company claims has a mean thread elongation of 12 kilograms with a standard deviation of 0.5 kilograms. The company wishes to test the hypothesis H0: μ = 12 against H1: μ < 12, using a random sample of four specimens. (a) What is the type I error probability if the critical region is defined as x < 11.5 kilograms? (b) Find β for the case in which the true mean elongation is 11.25 kilograms. (c) Find β for the case in which the true mean is 11.5 kilograms.

Answers

The Type I error's computed value is 0.02275 and The Type II error has a computed value of 0.50 based on probability.

What is probability?

The potential or opportunity of an event happening is known as probability. The probability is equal to the variety of possible outcomes. the estimated number of outcomes that could occur.

(a) Type I error probability if the critical region is defined as x < 11.5 kilograms

[tex]P(Type\ Error)=P\ xbar < 11.5\ when\ mu=12)\\\\[/tex]

[tex]=P(Z < \frac{11.5-12}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{4} } } )\\\\=P(Z < -2)\\\\=0.02275[/tex]

The Type I error's computed value is 0.02275.

Observe that there is a 2.275% likelihood of dismissing the null hypothesis if it is true based on the Type I error probability.

(b) β for the case in which the true mean elongation is 11.25 kilograms.

[tex]b= P(Type II Error)\\\\=P(xbar\geq 11.5\ when\ mu_1\ =11.25)[/tex]

[tex]=P(Z \geq \frac{11.5-12}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{4} } } )\\\\=P(Z \geq 1)\\\\= 1-P(Z < 1)\\\\=1-0.8413\\\\=0.1587[/tex]

The Type II error's computed value is 0.1587.

Observe that there is a 15.87% possibility of refusing to disprove the null hypothesis when it is untrue based on the Type II error probability.

(c)  β for the case in which the true mean is 11.5 kilograms.

[tex]b= P(Type II Error)\\\\=P(xbar\geq 11.5\ when\ mu_1\ =11.25)[/tex]

Answers

The angle at which the shot was made should be 17.53° degrees.

Let C denote the point where the player attempts to put in a goal.

Let A and B denote the two goalposts.

We are given the posts of a hockey goal are 6 ft apart.

The distance between the player and one goalpost is 19 ft.

The distance between the player and the other goalpost is 24 ft.

Then, we have AC = 19 ft, BC = 24 ft, and AB= 6 ft.

Refer to the diagram.

Let θ be the angle made when trying to shoot the goal towards goalpost A.

Then we have tan(θ) = 6/19

⇒ θ = 17.53° degrees.

Therefore, the angle at which the shot was made should be 17.53° degrees.

Answers

Answer:
y = x - 4


Step-by-Step Explanation:

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals—multiplying their slopes result in -1.Given the slope of a line m = -1, then it means that the slope of the other line must be 1 (because multiplying the slope of line 1  (m1 = -1), and the slope of the other line (m2 = 1) results in: -1 × 1 = -1).Therefore, given the slope of line 2 (m2 = 1), and the point (2, -2), we could plug these values into the slope-intercept form and solve for the y-intercept (b):y = mx + b-2 = 1(2) + b-2 = 2 + bSubtract 2 from both sides to solve for b:-2 - 2 = 2 - 2 + b-4 = bTherefore, the y-intercept (b) = -4.Hence, the equation of the perpendicular line is: y = x - 4

How to identify if the triangles are similar?

Two figures are similar if the figures have the same shape, but different size.

So, one figure is a dilation/contraction of the other figure.

In this case of the triangles, two are similar if and only if all the correspondent internal angles have the same measure.

For the case of the image, the triangles:

RST and RUV

would be similar if and only if line ST and line UV are parallel, in that case we would get that the angles at S and U are equal, and the same for the angles at T and V.

In this particular case, there is no indication that ST and UV are parallel. (they may be, the may not be)
