A fast food chain has a contest in which a card
with numbers on it is given to each customer who
makes a purchase. If some of the numbers on the
card add up to 100, then the customer wins $100.
You make a purchase and receive a card contain-
ing the numbers 72, 21, 15, 36, 69, 81, 9, 27, 42,
and 63.
Will you win $100?
Why or why not?

Answers

Answer 1

Final answer:

After examining possible combinations of the given numbers (72, 21, 15, 36, 69, 81, 9, 27, 42, and 63), we find no subset that adds up to exactly 100. The closest sum we can get is 99, which is not sufficient to win the prize. Hence, we will not win the $100.

Explanation:

To determine whether we will win the $100 by finding a combination of the given numbers that add up to 100, we should examine possible combinations. The provided numbers are 72, 21, 15, 36, 69, 81, 9, 27, 42, and 63.

Looking at these numbers, we can see if any subsets add to 100:

27 + 72 = 99 (close, but not exactly 100)63 + 36 = 99 (also close, but still not 100)21 + 15 + 9 + 27 + 27 = 99 (using 27 twice is not allowed, and it's still not exactly 100)

It becomes evident that combinations of the given numbers will either fall short of or exceed 100. The closest combinations we can make are 99, just one short of the required total, meaning we cannot win the $100 with the provided numbers on the card. Therefore, the answer is no; we will not win $100 as we cannot make a sum of exactly 100 using the numbers on the card.

June Elloy makes a 22 percent down payment on a home in Rockford, Illinois. What is the purchase price of the home assuming her down payment is $35,200?


Answers

0.22x = 35200
x=160000
the price is $160000

Answer:

Total purchase price of of the home is $160000

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

Percent of down payment June Elloy makes = 22 %

Down payment is = $35200

Let x be the total purchase price.

Therefore,

22 % of x = 35200

( 22 / 100 ) times x = 35200

0.22 times x =35200

x = 35200 / 0.22

  = 160000

Thus, total purchase price of of the home is $160000

The ratio of the sum of two numbers to the difference of the two numbers is 9. The product of the two numbers is 80. Find the numbers.

Answers

There are two equations here:

(a+b)/(a-b) = 9 and ab=80

the first one simplifies to 8a = 10b or a = (4/5)b.

You can plug this last part in for 'a' in the second equation:

(4/5)b*b = (4/5)b^2 = 80 which means b^2 = 64 or b = +8 or -8.

I guess the question asks for the positive solution, so then you will find that a = 10 if you plug the value of b in for one of the original equations. Then your final answer would be a = 10 and b = 8. But, there is another solution, I believe, that is a = -10 and b = -8, since ab would still equal 80 and (a+b)/(a-b) would be -18/-2 which still equals 9. Notice that either a and b are both positive or both negative, because this is the only time that the product of both numbers would be also positive.

When 50% of a number is added to the number, the result is 225. What is the number?

Answers

Final answer:

The unknown number in the problem is 150. This was determined by creating an equation based on the information given, simplifying it, and solving for the unknown variable 'n'.

Explanation:

This is a math problem that involves working with percentages and algebraic equations. Let the unknown number we're trying to find be 'n'. The problem says that 50% of the number, which is 0.5*n, is added to the number (n), resulting in 225. This situation can be represented with the equation: n + 0.5*n = 225.

Combining like terms on the left side of the equation, we get 1.5*n = 225. To isolate 'n', divide both sides of the equation by 1.5. So, n = 225 / 1.5, which gives us the number 150. Therefore, the unknown number is 150.

A machine starts dumping sand at the rate of 20 m3/min, forming a pile in the shape of a cone. The height of the pile is always twice the length of the base diameter. After 5 minutes, how fast is the area of the base increasing?

Answers

When after 5 min the height is 11.516, after 5 min the height is increasing at .7678m/min, after 5 min the base radius is increasing at .19196 m/min, so I already workd out the volume formula v=1/3pir^2h

Final answer:

The area of the base is increasing at a rate of 200π m²/min after 5 minutes.

Explanation:

To find how fast the area of the base is increasing, we first need to calculate the rate at which the height and radius of the cone are changing. Given that the height of the pile is always twice the length of the base diameter, we can write the equation h = 2r, where h is the height and r is the radius of the cone. Differentiating both sides with respect to time, we get dh/dt = 2dr/dt. Since the height is changing at a constant rate of 20 m³/min, dh/dt = 20 m³/min. Using this information, we can find the rate at which the radius is changing, dr/dt. Since the base diameter is equal to 2r, the base radius changes at a rate of dr/dt = 10 m/min. Now, we can find the rate of change of the area A of the base using the formula A = πr². Differentiating both sides with respect to time, we get dA/dt = 2πr(dr/dt). Plugging in the values, we have dA/dt = 2π(10)(10) = 200π m²/min. Therefore, the area of the base is increasing at a rate of 200π m²/min after 5 minutes.

What is Future Value?

The worth of a current asset at some point in the future based on an estimated rate of growth is known as future value (FV). For investors and financial planners, the future value is crucial because they use it to predict how much an investment made now will be worth in the future.

Investors can make wise investment choices based on their projected demands by knowing the future worth. However, external economic forces that depreciate an asset's value, such inflation, might have a negative impact on the asset's future worth.

Given:

P = ​$8904.56

R= 6%

T= 9

n= 2

Now, Future Value = P [tex](1 + r/n)^ {(nt)}\\[/tex]

FV= 8904.56 [tex](1 + 0.06/2)^ {(2)(9)}\\[/tex]

FV = 8904. 56 [tex]( 1+ 0.03)^{18[/tex]

FV= 8904.56[tex](1.03)^{18}[/tex]

FV = $15162.80

You can ride your bike around your block twice and the whole neighborhood once in 15 minutes. You can ride your bike around your block twice and the whole neighborhood 5 times in 55 minutes. How long does it take you to ride around the neighborhood?

Answers

It takes 10 minutes to ride around your neighborhood. We already know that going around the neighborhood once and your block twice is 15 minutes, so you can get rid of the two blocks and one neighborhood. Then subtract 15 minutes from 55, which is 40. So now we know that it takes 40 minutes to go around the neighborhood 4 times. Devide, and you get that one lap around the neighborhood is 10 minutes. It's kinda hard to explain in words, but maybe the picture will help.

To determine the time it takes to ride around the neighborhood, equations are set up from the given scenarios and solved algebraically, resulting in 10 minutes for one neighborhood lap.

To solve the problem, we need to set up equations based on the information provided. Let's let N represent the time it takes to ride around the neighborhood once and B represent the time it takes to ride around the block twice. The first scenario gives us:

B + N = 15 minutes

In the second scenario, the only difference is the number of neighborhood laps, so:

B + 5N = 55 minutes

Subtracting the first equation from the second gives us:

4N = 40 minutes

Dividing both sides by 4, we find:

N = 10 minutes

Therefore, it takes 10 minutes to ride around the neighborhood once.

A certain component is critical to the operation of an electrical system and must be replaced immediately upon failure. If the mean lifetime of this type of component is 100 hours and its standard deviation is 30 hours, how many of the components must be in stock so that the probability that the system is in continual operation for the next 2000 hours is at least .95?

Answers

Final answer:

To calculate the stock required for continuous operation for 2000 hours with components having a mean lifetime of 100 hours and a standard deviation of 30 hours, use the Z-score for a 0.95 probability and solve for the number of components. This involves applying the normal distribution.

Explanation:Calculating Stock Quantity for Component Replacement

The given problem requires calculating the number of electrical components that must be in stock to ensure continuous operation of an electrical system for 2000 hours. We are to assume that the components have a mean lifetime of 100 hours and a standard deviation of 30 hours. The aim is to keep the probability of the system running without interruption at 0.95 or higher.

Firstly, determine the number of lifetimes within the 2000-hour period:

2000 hours / 100 hours = 20 lifetimes.

Next, apply the concept of the normal distribution to find the z-score that corresponds to the 0.95 cumulative probability. Looking at z-tables or using statistical software, we find that the z-score for 0.95 is approximately 1.645.

Now, calculate the stock required using this z-score. The formula for the z-score in this context is:

Z = (X - mean) / (standard deviation / sqrt(n))

where X is the total hours (2000), mean is 100, standard deviation is 30, and n is the number of components.

Rearrange the formula to solve for n:

1.645 = (2000 - (100n)) / (30 / sqrt(n))

Solve for n to get the required number of components in stock.

This is a complex statistics problem that requires knowledge of z-scores and the normal distribution to solve. Given that this requires more complex calculations and potentially the use of calculators or software, a more detailed step-by-step calculation may go beyond the scope of this platform.

Final answer:

To ensure the probability of continuous operation for the next 2000 hours is at least 0.95, at least one component must be in stock.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of components that must be in stock to ensure the probability of continuous operation for the next 2000 hours is at least 0.95, we need to use the concept of the normal distribution. Given that the mean lifetime of the component is 100 hours and the standard deviation is 30 hours, we can calculate the Z-score for 2000 hours.

Z-score = (X - mean) / standard deviation = (2000 - 100) / 30 = 63.33

Using a Z-table or calculator, we can find that the probability of the component lasting for 2000 hours or more is approximately 1. With a probability of 1, we can say that the system is guaranteed to be in continual operation for the next 2000 hours. Therefore, at least one component must be in stock.

What conclusion is appropriate if a chi-square test produces a chi-square statistic near zero?

Answers

expected values are close to observed values, tend to favor the null hypothesis; existence of relationship is not supported, or like, departure from expectation is not supported.

Final answer:

If a chi-square test produces a chi-square statistic near zero, it implies that there is minimal deviation between the observed and expected values, suggesting independence or a good fit. However, interpretation should consider the specific test and hypotheses.

Explanation:

If a chi-square test produces a chi-square statistic near zero, it implies that there is minimal deviation between the observed and expected values. This suggests that the variables being tested are independent of each other or that the data fits the assumed distribution very well.

For example, in a chi-square test of independence, if the chi-square statistic is close to zero, it indicates that there is no significant relationship between the two factors being tested.

However, it is important to interpret the results in the context of the specific test being conducted, considering the null and alternative hypotheses as well as the significance level.
