10142-7)
0 14 2 17]

Answers

Given:

The matrix equation is:

[tex]\begin{bmatrix}-18&3&5\end{bmatrix}-C=\begin{bmatrix}-22&1&12\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

To find:

The value of matrix C.

Solution:

Let [tex]A=\begin{bmatrix}-18&3&5\end{bmatrix},B=\begin{bmatrix}-22&1&12\end{bmatrix}[/tex]. Then the given equation can be rewritten as

[tex]A-C=B[/tex]

[tex]-C=B-A[/tex]

[tex]C=-(B-A)[/tex]

[tex]C=A-B[/tex]

On substituting the values of the matrices, we get

[tex]C=\begin{bmatrix}-18&3&5\end{bmatrix}-\begin{bmatrix}-22&1&12\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]C=\begin{bmatrix}-18-(-22)&3-1&5-12\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]C=\begin{bmatrix}-18+22&2&-7\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]C=\begin{bmatrix}-4&2&-7\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

Therefore, the correct option is C.

Find both the number of combinations and the number of permutations for the given number of objects.

15 objects taken 7 at a time​

Answers

Answer:

First, if we have a set of K elements, such that are ordered as:

{x₁, x₂, ...}

The total number of permutations for the K elements can be found in the next way.

For the first element in the set, we have K options.

For the second element in the set, we have (K - 1) options (because we already choose one)

For the third element we have (K - 2) options, and so on.

The total number of permutation is equal to the product between the numbers of options for each position's element, then the number of permutations for K elements is:

permutations = K*(K - 1)*(K - 2)*....*2*1 = K!

Now suppose that we have a set of N elements, and we want to make groups of K elements.

The total number of different combinations of K elements is given by the equation:

[tex]C(N, K) = \frac{N!}{(N - K)!*K!}[/tex]

In this case we have 15 objects (then  N = 15) and we take 7 at the time (Then K = 7)

Where we need to take in account the number of combinations and also the permutations for each combination.

Then the total number of different sets is:

C(15*7)*7!

First, the total number of combinations will be:

[tex]C(15,7) = \frac{15!}{(15 - 7)!7!} = \frac{15!}{8!*7!} = \frac{15*14*13*12*11*10*9}{7*6*5*4*3*2*1} = 6,435[/tex]

So we have 6,436 combinations, and each one of these combinations has 7! permutations.

permutations = 7! = 7*6*5*4*3*2*1 = 5,040

if we combine these we get:

Combinations*Permutations = 6,435*5,040 = 32,432,400

Original price= $204.

100%-75%= 25% or 0.25.

Answers

Answer:

The predicted average price for 2014 is of $38,304.

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear model:

In a linear model, the average price increases by the same amount during each period.

In 2002, the average price of a new domestic car was $19,126. In 2008, the average price was $28,715.

In a period of 6 years, the increase was of:

28715 - 19126 = $9,589

Based on a linear model, what is the predicted average price for 2014?

Another period of 6 years, so it will increase by 9589 more. Than

28715 + 9589 = 38304

The predicted average price for 2014 is of $38,304.

Let x denote the length of the side of each cut-out square. Assume negligible thickness. (a) Find a formula for the volume, V, of the box as a function of x. \ \ V(x)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x denotes the length of the side of each cut

After Cutting square length will be=8-2x (where 2x for 2 squares as on each side two corners are there thus 2 squares will be cut down)

After cutting square width will be=14-2x (where 2x for 2 squares as on each side two corners are there thus 2 squares will be cut down)

Height = x

Volume=Length*width*Height

Volume=(8-2x)*(14-2x)*x

How to find the smallest integer k such that 60k is a perfect square

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  k = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Look for the missing factors that make all of the factors of 60k be squares.

  60 = 2² × 3 × 5

The factors 3 and 5 each have an odd exponent (1), so those two factors must be part of k.

  60k = 2² × 3 × 5 × k

is a perfect square when ...

  3 × 5 = k = 15

For k = 15, 60k = 900 = 30²

1. (20 points) One step in the manufacture of a certain metal clamp involves the drilling of four holes.

(a) Find a 99.5% confidence interval for the mean time needed to complete the step. (b) What is the confidence level of the interval (71, 73)? (c) How many clamps must be sampled so that 99.5% confidence interval specifies the mean to within ±1.5 seconds? (d) Can you conclude that the mean time needed to complete the step is greater than 73 seconds? i. State hypothesis. ii. Compute P-value. iii. What is your conclusion?

Answers

Answer:

(69.708 ; 74.292) ; 78% ; 350 ;

H0 : μ = 72

H0 : μ > 72

Pvalue = 0.8897

there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the mean time needed to complete the step is greater than 73.

Step-by-step explanation:

99.5% confidence level, = 2.807

Sample size, n = 150

xbar = 72

Standard deviation, s = 10

Xbar ± Margin of error

Margin of Error = Zcritical * s/sqrt(n)

Margin of Error = 2.807 * 10/sqrt(150)

Margin of Error = 2.292

Lower boundary = 72 - 2.292 = 69.708

Upper boundary = 72 + 2.292 = 74.292

(69.708 ; 74.292)

B.)

Confidence level of the interval (71, 73)

(72 - 71 ) or (73 - 72)

Margin of Error = 1

Margin of Error = Zcritical * s/sqrt(n)

1 = Zcritical * 10/sqrt(150)

1 = Zcritical * 0.8164965

Zcritical = 1 / 0.8164965

Zcritical = 1.2247

α = 0.22 = 1 - 0.22 = 0.78 = 78%

C.)

Margin of Error = ±1.5

1.5 = Zcritical * s/sqrt(n)

99.5% confidence level, = 2.807

1.5 = 2.807 * 10/sqrt(n)

1.5 = 28.07 / sqrt(n)

Square both sides

1.5² = 28.08² / n

2.25n = 788.4864

n = 788.4864 / 2.25

n = 350.4384

n = 350 samples

D.)

H0 : μ = 72

H0 : μ > 72

Test statistic :

(xbar - μ) ÷ s/sqrt(n)

(73 - 72) ÷ 10/sqrt(150)

Test statistic = 1.2247

Pvalue :

P(Z < 1.2247) = 0.8897

Pvalue > α

0.8897 > 0.005

We fail to reject the Null ; Hence there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the mean time needed to complete the step is greater than 73.

Answer:

  a) y = 3x-1

  b) y = x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We notice the x-values change by 1, so the change in the y-value is the slope. -4 -(-7) = 3 is the change between the first two y-values.

The y-intercept is shown by the ordered pair (0, -1). So, the slope-intercept equation is ...

  y = 3x -1

__

b) We note that the change in x is 2 units, as is the change in y. Then the slope of the function is m = 2/2 = 1. The y-intercept (b) can be found from ...

  b = y -mx

  b = 7 -1·2 = 5

Then the slope-intercept equation is ...

  y = x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The value of t is "years since 2005." In 2005, the value of t is zero. To find the model's prediction for 2005, substitute t=0.

  p = 5000·2^0 = 5000·1

  p = 5000 . . . . in 2005

__

2. When t=-2, it means you're concerned with the population 2 years before 2005. That is, you are modeling the population in 2003.

3. Evaluate the function for t=-2:

  p = 5000·2^(-2) = 5000·1/4 = 1250

Surface area of square pyramid is 95 square yard.

What is surface area of square pyramid?

The word "surface" means " the exterior or outside part of an object or body". So, the total surface area of a square pyramid is the sum of the areas of its lateral faces and its base.

So, the surface area of a square pyramid is the sum of the areas of four of its triangular side faces and the base area which is square.

Given

Length = 5 yd

Slant height = 7 yd

Surface area of square pyramid = 4 (Area of triangle) +  area of square

S = [tex]4\frac{1}{2}bh+side^{2}[/tex]

S = [tex]4 . \frac{1}{2} (5)(7)+5.5[/tex]

S = 70 + 25

S = 95 square yard.

Hence, Surface area of square pyramid is 95 square yard.
