Quadratic Equation
The standard representation of a quadratic equation is:
[tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex]
where a,b, and c are constants.
It can be solved by using the quadratic formula:
[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]
Jill asks for an increase in the hourly wage she receives. Since she works in a Maths Center, the increase comes as a maths equation.
She must solve the equation:
[tex]x^2-6x+9=0[/tex]
The solution to the equation is the increase in her hourly wage.
Comparing with the general form, we have a=1, b=-6, c=9. Thus, the solutions are:
[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{-(-6)\pm \sqrt{(-6)^2-4(1)(9)}}{2(1)}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{6\pm \sqrt{36-36}}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{6\pm \sqrt{0}}{2}[/tex]
Since the square root is 0, there is only one solution:
[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{6}{2}=3[/tex]
x = 3
Thus, her raise per hour is $3.
Studies indicate that 10.5% of the US population has diabetes. A producer of medical devices is developing a test for diabetes diagnosis: a positive test suggests that a person has diabetes, a negative test suggests that a person does not have diabetes. However, medical tests can give false results: in particular, the probability that this test gives a negative result for a person who actually has diabetes is 0.05, while the probability that the test is positive for a person who in fact does not have diabetes is 0.10.1. What is the probability that the test gives a positive result for a person who is known to have diabetes? 2. What is the probability that a person has diabetes, given that the test gives a positive result?
Answer:
The answer is "0.95 and 0.5271".
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]p (d) = 0.905 \\\\p( false\ negative) = 0.05\\\\p(false \ positive ) = 0.10 \\\\[/tex]
In point a)
p ( positive diabetes )[tex]= 1 - 0.05 = 0.95[/tex]
In point b)
[tex]p(\frac{d}{+ve}) = \frac{0.105 \times 0.95}{0.105 \times 0.95 +0.895 \times 0.10 }[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{0.09975}{0.09975+0.0895}\\\\=\frac{0.09975}{0.18925}\\\\= 0.5271[/tex]
A university organization shows that 108 of the university's 253 assistant professors were women, along with 97 of the 301 associate professors and 78 of the 350 full professors. (a) What is the probability that a randomly chosen university professor (of any rank) is a woman
Answer:
[tex]Probability = 0.3131[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Required
Determine the probability of selecting a woman
The given data can be represented to show women distribution as:
-------------------------------------- Women ------------------- Total
Assistant Professors ----------- 108 ----------------------253
Associate Professors ---------97 -------------------------301
Full Professors -----------------78---------------------------350
First, we calculate the number of women
[tex]Women = 108 + 97 + 78[/tex]
[tex]Women = 283[/tex]
Next, we calculate the total number of professors
[tex]Professors = 253 + 301 + 350[/tex]
[tex]Professors = 904[/tex]
Probability of selecting women is then calculated as:
[tex]Probability = \frac{Women}{Professors}[/tex]
[tex]Probability = \frac{283}{904}[/tex]
[tex]Probability = 0.31305309734[/tex]
[tex]Probability = 0.3131[/tex] -- (approximated)

Step-by-step explanation:
Find the (a) mean, (b) median, (c) mode, and (d) midrange for the data and then (e) answer the given question. Listed below are the weights in pounds of 11 players randomly selected from the roster of a championship sports team. Are the results likely to be representative of all players in that sport's league? 278 279 185 299 245 281 291 234 278 227 281
Answer:
Mean = 261.63 poundsMedian = 278 poundsModes: 278 & 281Mid-range = 242Yes all the results will be able to represent all players in the sports leagueStep-by-step explanation:
First of all, we will sort the data.
185 227 234 245 278 278 279 281 281 291 299
Mean:
Mean is defined as the sum of values divided by the number of values.
n = 11
[tex]Mean = \frac{sum}{n}\\= \frac{185+227 +234+ 245+ 278+ 278+ 279+ 281+ 281+ 291+ 299}{11}\\=\frac{2878}{11}\\=261.63\ pounds[/tex]
Median:
As the number of values is odd,
The median will be:
[tex]Median = (\frac{n+1}{2})th\ value\\= \frac{11+1}{2}\\=\frac{12}{2}\\=6th\ value[/tex]
The 6th value is 278
Median = 278
Mode:
Mode is the most frequent value in a data set.
In the given dataset,
278 and 281 are modes as both are repeated twice
Mid-range:
Mid-range is the average of maximum and minimum value
So,
Min = 185
Max = 299
So,
[tex]Mid-range = \frac{Max+Min}{2}\\= \frac{185+299}{2}\\= \frac{484}{2}\\= 242[/tex]
Hence,
Mean = 261.63 poundsMedian = 278 poundsModes: 278 & 281Mid-range = 242Yes all the results will be able to represent all players in the sports leagueWork out the value of x+y multiplied by z if x=3/5 ....

3. The Round Rock Express has a pitcher with an impressive winning record. Opposing teams are attempting to analyze his pitches. The pitcher throws a strike 35of the time. If the pitcher throws a strike the next pitch is a fastbal 40% of the time. If the pitcher doesn't throw a strike the next pitch is a fastball 80% of the time.
Answer:
0.66
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Let P(Throwing strike) = 0.35
So,
P(S') = 1 - 0.35 = 0.65
P(A / B) = P(A and B) / P(B)
P(Throwing fastball and thrown strike) = P(F / S) = 40% = 0.4
P(Throwing fastball not thrown strike) = P(F / S') = 80%
P(Throwing fastball not thrown strike) =0.8
So,
P(F and S) = 0.8 x 0.65
P(F and S) = 0.52
P(F) = [P(F / S) x P(S)] + [P(F / S') x P(S')]
= (0.4 x 0.35) + (0.8 x 0.65)
= 0.14 + 0.52
= 0.66

Problem: According www.textrequest, an American between 18-24 sends and receives about 128 text messages per day. Assume that the population standard deviation is 30 for this age group. To get an idea about the true population mean you take a survey of 100 adults in that age group and find that their average is 135. Create a 90% confidence interval for the population average for this age group.
Answer:
(130.08, 139.92)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Mean (m) = 135
Standard deviation (σ) = 30
Sample size (n) = 100
α = 90%
The confidence interval value is obtained using the relation:
Mean ± Zcritical * (standard deviation / sqrt(n))
Zcritical at 90% = 1.64
standard deviation / sqrt(n) = 30 / sqrt(100)
= 30 / 10 = 3
Hence,
135 ± 1.64 * (3)
Lower limit : 135 - (1.64 * 3) = 130.08
Upper limit : 135 + (1.64 * 3) = 139.92
Hence,
Confidence interval = (130.08, 139.92)

Find the exact values of the six trigonometric ratios of the angle in the triangle 160 and 164
Answer:
[tex]\sin \theta = \frac{40}{41}[/tex], [tex]\cos \theta = \frac{3}{82}[/tex], [tex]\tan \theta = \frac{80}{3}[/tex], [tex]\cot \theta = \frac{3}{80}[/tex], [tex]\sec \theta = \frac{82}{3}[/tex], [tex]\csc \theta = \frac{41}{40}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We notice that figure represents a right triangle, the hypotenuse has a length of 164 units and the leg opposite to [tex]\theta[/tex] has a length of 160 units. The sine of [tex]\theta[/tex] is:
[tex]\sin \theta = \frac{160}{164}[/tex]
[tex]\sin \theta = \frac{40}{41}[/tex]
The leg adjacent to [tex]\theta[/tex] is determine by the Pythagorean Theorem:
[tex]r = \sqrt{164^{2}-160^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]r = 6[/tex]
Then, the cosine of [tex]\theta[/tex] is:
[tex]\cos \theta = \frac{6}{164}[/tex]
[tex]\cos \theta = \frac{3}{82}[/tex]
Lastly, we determine the remaining trigonometric ratios by using these identities:
[tex]\tan \theta = \frac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}[/tex] (1)
[tex]\cot \theta = \frac{1}{\tan \theta}[/tex] (2)
[tex]\sec \theta = \frac{1}{\cos \theta}[/tex] (3)
[tex]\csc \theta = \frac{1}{\sin \theta}[/tex] (4)
If we know that [tex]\sin \theta = \frac{40}{41}[/tex] and [tex]\cos \theta = \frac{3}{82}[/tex], then the trigonometric ratios are, respectively:
[tex]\tan \theta = \frac{\frac{40}{41} }{\frac{3}{82} }[/tex]
[tex]\tan \theta = \frac{80}{3}[/tex]
[tex]\cot \theta = \frac{1}{\frac{80}{3} }[/tex]
[tex]\cot \theta = \frac{3}{80}[/tex]
[tex]\sec \theta = \frac{1}{\frac{3}{82} }[/tex]
[tex]\sec \theta = \frac{82}{3}[/tex]
[tex]\csc \theta = \frac{1}{\frac{40}{41} }[/tex]
[tex]\csc \theta = \frac{41}{40}[/tex]

1. A certain manufacturing process to build phone batteries results in the production of defective batteries at a rate of 5% (0.05). Suppose that 10 batteries are produced. a. Find the expected number of defective batteries. b. Find the variance and standard deviation in the number of defective batteries. c. Find the probability that at least 1 battery is defective.
Answer:
0.5 ; 0.475 ; 0.689 ; 0.4013
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Rate of production of defective batteries p = 0.05
Number of batteries produced (n) = 10
The expected number of defective batteries = mean = n * p = 10 * 0.05 = 0.5 batteries
Variance of defective batteries :
Var(X) = n * p * q ; q = 1 - p
Hence,
Var(X) = 10 * 0.05 * 0.95 = 0.475
Standard deviation (X) = sqrt(variance) = sqrt(0.475) = 0.689
Probability that atleast 1 battery is defective :
Using the binomial probability function
P(x ≥ 1) = 1 - p(x = 0)
= 1 - q^n
= 1 - 0.95^10
= 1 - 0.59873693923837890625
= 0.40126306076162109375
= 0.4013
