Two miners are trying to push a stationary mine cart filled with gold. Miner A is exerting 25 N while miner B is exerting 20 N. However it is observed that the mine cart remained stationary despite their push. How much force does the road exert on the wheel of the cart?

a. 25 N

b. 45 N

c. Less than

45 N d. More than 25 N​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

b. 45 N

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the forces exerted by the two miners = 25 + 20

                                           = 45 N

Since after applying a force of 45 N by the two miners the cart remained stationary, it implies that a resistance force of at least 45 N acts against their push. Thus, the force exerted by the road could be equal to 45 N or greater than 45 N.

Probably, if the sum of the forces applied is 46 N, the cart would move. Which depends on the value of resistance force applied by the road. Thus, the appropriate answer from the given option is B.

Since the force applied on the cart equals the resistance force exerted by the road, the cart would not move.

One number is five less than a second number. Five times the first is 2 more than 2 times the second. Find the numbers.

Answers

Your numbers are 4 and 9

We’ll call the first number a, the second b.
a = b - 5
5a = 2b + 2
(if you’re not sure where I got those equations, just let me know in the comments.)

Then we’ll substitute the first value into the second equation:

5(b - 5) = 2b + 2
5b - 25 = 2b + 2
3b = 27
b = 9

a = b - 5
a = 9 - 5 = 4

Battery life for a hand-held computer is normally distrituted and has a population standard deviation of 7 hours. Suppose you need to estimate a confidence interval estimate at the 95% level of confidence for the mean life of these batteries. Determine the sample size required to have a margin of error of 0.585 hours. Round up to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:

A sample size of 551 is required.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

Population standard deviation of 7 hours.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 7[/tex]

Determine the sample size required to have a margin of error of 0.585 hours.

This is n for which M = 0.585. So

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.585 = 1.96\frac{7}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.585\sqrt{n} = 1.96*7[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*7}{0.585}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*7}{0.585})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 550.04[/tex]

Rounding up(as for a sample of 550 the margir of error will be a bit above the desired target):

A sample size of 551 is required.

x = b

15 = c

12^2 + b^2 = 15^2

Rosa wants to buy a new TV priced at 499.99 The TV is on sale for 15% off but the cashier informs her that if she applies for a store credit card she can have an additional 10% off. How much will Rosa pay after the discounts and 6% tax have been applied? Write and solve an equation to find the final price.

PLEASE ANSWER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE

Answers

Answer:

$405,44

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we have to find how much the tv cost after 15% of discount.

we can use this proportion

15 : 100 = x : 499.99

x = (15*499.99)/100 = $74.9985

then we have to subtract the initial value to the value of the discount

499.99-74.9985 = $424,9915

thanks to the card we can apply another 10%

10 : 100 = x : 424,9915

x = (424,9915 *10)/100 = $42,49915

424,9915-42,49915 = $382,49235

now we have to apply taxes

6:100 = x : 382,49235

x = $22,949541

382,49235 + 22,949541 = $405,441891

that can be rewrite as $405,44

If we want to write an equation to solve this problem we can use this

499.99 - (499.99 * 15/100) - 1/10[499.99-(499.99*15/100)] + 6/100{1/10[499.99-(499.99*15/100) = x

x=28

Answer:

The value of x is 28°

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, In a given figure

4x + 3° ...(1)

2x + 9° ...(2)

Now, we know that the sum of all angle is 180° on a straight line

So,

4x + 3° + 2x + 9° = 180°

6x + 12° = 180°

6x = 180° - 12°

6x = 168°

x = 168° ÷ 6

x = 28°

Thus, The value of x is 28°

FOR VERIFICATION ONLY:-

4x + 3° + 2x + 9° = 180°

4(28) + 3° + 2(28) + 9° = 180°

112° + 3° + 56° + 9° = 180°

180° = 180°

What is Probability?

Probability refers to potential. A random event's occurrence is the subject of this area of mathematics.

The range of the value is 0 to 1. Mathematics has incorporated probability to forecast the likelihood of various events.

The degree to which something is likely to happen is basically what probability means.

We have,

Red balloon = 3

Blue balloon = 2

Pink balloon = 2

Green balloon = 2

Orange balloon = 2

light Blue = 1

Yellow balloon = 2

Purple balloon = 2

So, the probability of picking any color balloon except for red at random

= 13/ 16 x 100

Given

[tex]Bills = $20\ bills[/tex] (4)

[tex]Shirt = \$42[/tex]

[tex]Sweater= \$30[/tex]

Required

The change

First, we determine the amount paid,

To do this, multiply the number of bills by the worth of each bill.

So, we have:

[tex]Amount = 4 * \$20[/tex]

[tex]Amount = \$80[/tex]

Next, calculate the worth if item bought

[tex]Items = \$42 + \$30[/tex]

[tex]Items = \$72[/tex]

Subtract the items from the amount to get the change.

[tex]Change = \$80 - \$72[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the function can be written in the slope-intercept form y = mx + b.

m = slope = change in y/change in x

b = y-intercept = the value of y when x is zero

✔️From the table, when x = 0, y is 8.

Therefore,

y-intecept (b) = 8

✔️Find the slope (m) using two of the given pairs of values from the table, (-4, 6) and (2, 9):

m = (9 - 6)/(2 -(-4))

m = 3/6

m = ½

✔️Next is to plug in the values of m and b into y = mx + b.

The marketing department of a widget manufacturer collected potential consumer preference data regarding a proposed widget upgrade. Three hundred thirty-eight of 575 respondents reported preferring the proposed new widget. The widget manufacturing company had established a threshold of 60% preferring the proposed new widget to move forward with producing the new widgets. At a .10 level of significance, was the threshold probably met

Answers

Answer:

Since the pvalue of the test is 0.2743 > 0.1, the threshold probably was met.

Step-by-step explanation:

The widget manufacturing company had established a threshold of 60% preferring the proposed new widget to move forward with producing the new widgets.

This means that at the null hypothesis we test if the proportion is at least 60%, that is:

[tex]H_{0}: p \geq 0.6[/tex]

And the alternate hypothesis is:

[tex]H_{a}: p < 0.6[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.6 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that:

[tex]\mu = 0.6[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{0.6*0.4}[/tex]

Three hundred thirty-eight of 575 respondents reported preferring the proposed new widget.

This means that [tex]n = 575, X = \frac{338}{575} = 0.5878[/tex]

Value of the test-statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{0.5878 - 0.6}{\frac{\sqrt{0.6*0.4}}{\sqrt{575}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -0.6[/tex]

Pvalue of the test and decision:

We want to find the probability of a proportion of 0.5878 or lower, which is the pvalue of z = -0.6.

Looking at the z-table, z = -0.6 has a pvalue of 0.2743.

Since 0.2743 > 0.1, the threshold probably was met.
