Answers

Answer:

1/9

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the area of each circle with the formula a= Pi(r^2)

Area of circle with a radius of 4

a= Pi(4^2)

a= 16pi

Area of circle with radius of 12

a= Pi(12^2)

a= 144pi

Now use these values to represent the areas of the circles as a ratio

16pi/ 144pi

The pi's cancel out in this ratio

So we are left with

16/144

We can then go ahead and simplify these numbers as well to get the ratio in the simplest form

Stephen, Gavin and Jim share
some sweets in the ratio 3:1:2.
Stephen gets 24 sweets. How many
sweets are there altogether?

Answers

Answer:

There are 48 sweets altogether.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio: 3:1:2

Stephen: 24 sweets

24/3 = 8

Fill in ratio.

24:8:16

24 + 8 + 16 = 48

Answer:

48 sweets

Step-by-step explanation:

Stephen : Gavin : Jim

3 : 1 : 2

We can say that this means the total amount of sweets get split between the 3 of them into 6 equal parts ( 3 + 1 + 2).

If Stephen gets 24 sweets, this means

3 parts = 24

So to find 1 part, divide 24 by 3.

1 part = 8 sweets

Now we can find the total by multiplying this by 6.

6 parts = 8 x 6 = 48 sweets.

The General Social Survey reported a sample where about 61% of US residents thought marijuana should be made legal. If we wanted to limit the margin of error of a 95% con dence interval to 2%, about how many Americans would we need to survey?

Answers

Answer: we need to survey 2285 Americans.

Step-by-step explanation:

When population proportion (p) is known, then the formula to evaluate the sample size( minimum) is given by :-

[tex]n=p(1-p)(\frac{z^*}{E})^2[/tex], where E = margin of error , z* = critical z-value.

Given: p= 0.61, E=0.02, Critical z value for 95% = 1.96

Required sample size: [tex]n=(\frac{1.96}{0.02})^2(0.61)(1-0.61)[/tex]

[tex]=(98)^2(0.61)(0.39)\\\\=9604(0.61)(0.39)\\\\\approx$$2285[/tex]

Hence, we need to survey 2285 Americans.

Jordan’s Cat Fern is a finicky eater. Jordan is trying to determine which of two brands of canned cat food Fern prefers.

Answers

Answer:

There is significant difference in difference in the amount of food ferns eat ; and the preferred is TAB-a-cat.

(0.216, 5.984)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a 2 sample t test test problem :

The hypothesis :

H0 : μ1 = μ2

H1 : μ1 ≠ μ2

x1 = 85.2 ; x2 = 82.1 ; n1 = 31 ; n2 = 30 ; s1 = 3.45 ; s2 = 4.62

The test statistic :

T = (x1 - x2) / √(s1²/n1 + s2²/n2)

T = (85.2 - 82.1) / √(3.45²/31 + 4.62²/30)

T = 3.1 / 1.0466

T = 2.96

Using the Pvalue from Tstatistic calculator :

df = smaller n - 1 = 30 - 1 = 29

Pvalue(2.96, 29) = 0.006075

α = 0.05

Pvalue < α ; We reject the Null and conclude that there is significant difference in difference in the amount of food ferns eat.

99% Confidence interval :

The test statistic :

(x1 - x2) ± Tcritical *√(s1²/n1 + s2²/n2)

Tcritical at 99% = Tcritical(0.01, 29) = 2.756

(85.2 - 82.1) / 2.756*√(3.45²/31 + 4.62²/30)

3.1 ± 2.8844296

Lower boundary = (3.1 - 2.8844296) = 0.216

Upper boundary = (3.1 + 2.8844296) = 5.984

(0.216, 5.984)

Since interval does not contain 0, then, we reject the Null.

What does the following translation rule mean? (x+3, y-5) *
O
Move left 5 and up 3
Plot the point (3,-5)
Move upside down 3 and a little to the left 5
Move right 3 and down 5

Answers

Answer: D) move right 3, down 5

==========================================================

Explanation:

The x+3 means "move right 3". We add 3 to whatever the x coordinate is.

For example, the point (1,7) becomes (4,7) after adding 3 to the x coordinate. That visually shifts the point 3 units to the right.

Similarly, subtracting 5 from the y coordinate will shift the point 5 units down. That's what the y-5 is referring to. Example: (10, 12) moves to (10, 7).

----------------

Extra info:

We can write the translation rule as [tex](x,y) \to (x+3, y-5)[/tex]

With this notation, we can then say something like this for example

[tex](x,y) \to (x+3, y-5)\\\\(6,8) \to (6+3, 8-5)\\\\(6,8) \to (9, 3)\\\\[/tex]

Showing that the point (6,8) moves to (9,3) after applying the rule "move right 3, down 5".
