5 numbers have a mean of 4, a range of 6, mode of 2 and a median of 3. What could the numbers be? Is this the only answer?

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x1, x2, x3, x4, x5

(x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 + x5)/5 = 4

x5 - x1 = 6

x3 = 3

2 appears more often than any other number (at least twice), otherwise there would have been multiple modes.

x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 + x5 = 4×5 = 20

x3 = 3

x1 + x2 + 3 + x4 + x5 = 20

x1 + x2 + x4 + x5 = 17

x5 = x1 + 6

x1 + x2 + x4 + x1 + 6 = 17

2×x1 + x2 + x4 = 11

since we did not have the number 2 yet (and we made x5 the harvest number, which has to be larger than 2), and it has to appear at least twice.

so, two numbers out of x1, x2, x3 must be 2. not all three of them can be 2, because 2×2 + 2 + 2 = 8 and not 11 as the last equation demands.

we have therefore 2 different solutions, as either

x1 and x2, or x2 and x4 can be 2.

x1 and x4 is the same solution per the last equation as x1 and x2 (as the variables are interchangeable for the number assignment, only x1 is different, because it has an additional factor in the last equation).

solution 1 (x1 and x2 are 2) :

2×2 + 2 + x4 = 11

4 + 2 + x4 = 11

6 + x4 = 11

x4 = 5

so,

x1 = 2,

x2 = 2,

x3 = 3

x4 = 5

x5 = x1 + 6 = 2 + 6 = 8

solution 2 (x2 and x4 are 2) :

2×x1 + 2 + 2 = 11

2×x1 + 4 = 11

2×x1 = 7

x1 = 7/2

so,

x1 = 7/2

x2 = 2

x3 = 3

x4 = 2

x5 = x1 + 6 = 7/2 + 12/2 = 19/2

If cos θ = sin 2 θ, then the value of θ is = ___?​

Answers

Given that:

Cos θ = Sin 2θ

⇛ Cos θ = 2 Sin θ Cos θ

⇛ Cos θ / Cos θ = 2 Sin θ

⇛ 1 = 2 Sin θ

⇛ 1/2 = Sin θ

⇛ Sin θ = 1/2

⇛ Sin θ = Sin 30°

⇛ θ = 30°

Therefore, θ = 30°

Answer :-The value of θ for the given problem is 30°

Check:-

LHS = Cos θ

⇛ Cos 30°

⇛ √3/2

RHS = Sin 2θ

⇛ Sin (2×30°)

⇛ Sin 60°

⇛ √3/2

LHS = RHS is true for θ = 30°

The ratio of the totals of the numbers in box A and box B is 2:3.
Swap two numbers, one from each box, so that the ratio of the totals of the numbers is now 9:11. Show your working.
Please answer asap!! :)

Answers

Answer:

Swap 10 from box A and 15 from box B

Step-by-step explanation:

For calculate the ratio between the boxes we find the mean of the box A and the mean of the box B and divide this two results.

For find the mean of a set you use the next formula  [tex]\bar{x} = \frac{\text{sum numbers}}{\text{total numbers}}[/tex]

[tex]\bar{A} = \frac{4+5+9+10+12}{5} = \frac{40}{5}= 8\\\bar{B} = \frac{6+7+13+15+19}{5} = \frac{60}{5}= 12[/tex]

Then the ratio is equal to [tex]\frac{\bar{A}}{\bar{B}} = \frac{8}{12} = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Know the ask us for a ratio of 9:11 then we know two things about the boxes.

If you swap the numbers between them the total of numbers in the mean not change is always 5 and the sum of all the elements in both boxes is always 100. With this we can state the next equation:

The new mean of [tex]\bar{A}[/tex] is 9 then:

[tex]\frac{\text{sum of elements in box A}}{5} = 9[/tex]

[tex]\text{sum of elements in box A} = 45[/tex]

The new mean of [tex]\bar{B}[/tex] is 11 then:

[tex]\frac{\text{sum of elements in box B}}{5} = 11[/tex]

[tex]\text{sum of elements in box B} = 55[/tex]

Now we know what is the sum of the elements in both boxes, but how we find the elements for swap? Well with the next relation.

When you take out a element from the box A this elements is substracted to the total sum of the elements in the box A and get a new sum of total of elements named [tex]c[/tex] (where [tex]a[/tex] is the element taken):

[tex]40 - a = c[/tex]

And when you sum an element to the box A the current sum of total elements in the box change to (where [tex]b[/tex] is the added element):

[tex]b + c = 45[/tex]

So replace [tex]c[/tex] for the first relation and get:

[tex]b + 40 - a = 45\\b - a = 5[/tex]

From the last equation you can deduct that [tex]b[/tex] is greater than [tex]a[/tex] and the different between both values is 5. So the last step is find a number in the box B that substracted to a number from the box A give us 5. These both numbers are 15 and 10 because 15 - 10 = 5.

A farmer uses two types of fertilizers. A 50lb bag of fertilizer A contains 6 lb of nitrogen and 3lb of phosphorus. A 50 lb bag of fertilizer B contains 4 lb each of nitrogen and phosphorus. The minimum requirements for a field are 480 lb of nitrogen and 240 lb of phosphorus. If a 50lb bag of fertilizer A costs $35 and a 50 lb bag of fertilizer B costs $25 find the amount of each type of fertilizer the farmer should use to minimize his cost while still meeting the minimum requirements. mathematically formulate and state the problem.

Answers

Answer:

Fertilizer A = 20, Fertilizer B = 56

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Set up the equations

Nitrogen: 8x + 5y ≥ 440

Phosphorous: 2x + 5y ≥ 260

Potassium: 4x + 5y ≥ 360

Step 2: Find the vertices

It is easiest to graph the equations to find the vertices. (see attachment).  You can also solve each system of equations to find the intersected points.

The following satisfy the "greater than or equal to" requirement:

(0, 88) → y-intercept of Nitrogen equation

(20, 56) → intersection of Nitrogen and Potassium equations

(50, 32) → intersection of Phosphorous and Potassium

(130, 0) → x-intercept of Potassium

Step 3: Use vertices in cost function C(x) to find the minimum

C(x) = $30x + $20y

(0, 88): $30(0) + $20(88) = $1760

(20, 56): $30(20) + $20(56) = $1720    ← This is the minimum!

(50, 32): $30(50) + $20(32) = $2140

(130, 0): $30(130) + $20(0) = $3900

The minimum cost occurs when 20 bags of Fertilizer A and 56 bags of Fertilizer B are purchased.

According to the Community College Research Center at the Teachers College of Columbia University in New York, 32% of community college students work full-time (full-time defined to be a person working 35 or more hours per week).

The null hypothesis is [tex]H_0: p = 0.32[/tex]The alternative hypothesis is: [tex]H_1: p > 0.32[/tex]

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the CBC's students proportion is the same as all community college students, that is, of 32%, hence:

[tex]H_0: p = 0.32[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the proportion for CBC's students is greater than 32%, that is:

[tex]H_1: p > 0.32[/tex]

Determine the probability of selecting a two-child family with one boy and one girl assuming boys and girls are equally likely

Answers

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.5 = 50% probability of selecting a two-child family with one boy and one girl.

For each child, there are only two possible outcomes, either it is a boy, or it is a girl. The probability of a child being a boy or being a girl is independent of any other child, which means that the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes. n is the number of trials. p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem:

Two children, hence [tex]n = 2[/tex].Equally as likely to be a boy or a girl, hence [tex]p = 0.5[/tex].

The probability of one of each is P(X = 1), hence:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{2,1}.(0.5)^{1}.(0.5)^{1} = 0.5[/tex]

0.5 = 50% probability of selecting a two-child family with one boy and one girl.

Well, firstly - no idea, as cars can go slower or faster and there is no indication that this particular car would maintain the exact same avg. speed over 12 hours.

There is no way to solve this otherwise though, so we'll assume the car's speed is constant.
