60kg of rice must be put into three equal bags. what weight of rice must be put into each bag?
Answer:
20kg of rice in each bag
Step-by-step explanation:
we have 60kg of rice and 3 bags. we know that we need to have an eqal amount of rice in each bag so we can divide the 60kgs of rice by 3.
60÷3=20
Checking our Answer:
we can check our work by doing the opposite of division which is multiplication. to check our work we'd have to multiply the dividend (in our case 3) and our quotient (in our case 20) to see if we get the larger dividend (in our case 60) as our answer.
3×20=60

z/3 - 4(z-1) = 5(z-2)+1
What is the value of z?
Answer: [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to open the brackets on either side of the equation.
[tex]\frac{z}3}[/tex] - 4z+4 = 5z-10+1
After opening the brackets, we need to separate the variables from the constants.
[tex]\frac{z}{3}[/tex] -4z-5z = -10+1-4
Then we need to convert the variable fraction into a normal variable by multiplying the variable fraction and also all other terms in the equation.
3([tex]\frac{z}{3}[/tex]) 3(-4z) 3(-5z) = 3(-10) + 3(1) + 3(-4)
z -12z -15z = -30+3-12
Now, we can simplify the equation !
-26z = -39
z = -39÷-26
= [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Which type of triangle will always have at least 1-fold reflectional symmetry?
right triangle
obtuse triangle
acute triangle
isosceles triangle
Answer:
D. isosceles triangle
Step-by-step explanation:
Ed22
A triangle with at least 1-fold reflectional symmetry is isosceles triangle, option D is correct.
What is Triangle?A triangle is a three-sided polygon that consists of three edges and three vertices.
An isosceles triangle will always have at least 1-fold reflectional symmetry.
This is because an isosceles triangle has two congruent sides and two congruent angles.
If we draw a perpendicular bisector of the base (the side that is not congruent), it will bisect the base and the angle opposite to the base.
This means that the triangle is symmetric with respect to this line of reflection, which is the line of symmetry.
Therefore, the correct answer is isosceles triangle.

D. 22, 33, 41, 56, 69
Answer: A: 22, 33, 45.5, 56, 59
Step-by-step explanation:
The minimum is the lowest number in the data, in this case, it was 22.
Q1 is the median of the lower quartile range, anything below the median of the overall data.
Median, the middle number in the overall data. You first need to put them from lowest to highest (numerical order). After that, I find it a lot easier to cross one from each side until I'm either left with one or two. If I'm left with one, then that is my median for the overall data set. If I'm left with two, then I simply need to add both the numbers together and divide it by 2. Typically if it is a whole number, and the numbers are 1 number value away from each other, it is usually just 0.5 more of the lower value of the two. (For example, the two numbers I come down to is 10 and 11. The median would be 10.5).
Q3 is the exact same principle as Q1 just on the upper quartile range. Just repeat what you did in Q1 but for the numbers above the overall median of the data set.
Maximum is the highest number in the data set, in this case, it was 69.

The slide is inclined at an angle of 52.0°. Danny weighs 46.0 pounds. He is sitting in a cardboard box
with a piece of wax paper on the bottom. Stacey is at the top of the slide holding on to the cardboard
box. Find the magnitude of the force Stacey must pull with, in order to keep Danny from sliding down
the slide. (We are assuming that the wax paper makes the slide into a frictionless surface, so that the
only force keeping Danny from sliding is the force with which Stacey pulls.)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the slide is inclined at an angle of 52.0° to the horizontal, Danny's weight (mass, m) of 46.0 pounds has a component W = mgcos52.0° perpendicular to the incline and W' = mgsin52.0° parallel to the incline where g = acceleration due to gravity = 32 ft/s²
The perpendicular component of Danny's weight is the normal force to the incline. This normal force would determine the magnitude of the friction along the incline.
Since the wax paper makes the incline surface frictionless, so, there is no friction along the surface and thus the only horizontal force acting along the surface is the component of Danny's weight along the surface.
For Stacey to keep Danny from sliding down along the incline, the force she applies along the incline, F must be equal to the component of Danny's weight along the incline.
So, F = W'
F = mgsin52.0°
F = 46lb × 32 ft/s² × sin52°
F = 1472 lb-ft/s² 0.7880
F = 1159.95 lb-f
F ≅ 1160 lb-f

For the z test, the critical region for rejection of H0 _________. Group of answer choices depends on N is determined only by alpha and N allows us to accept the null hypothesis is determined only by alpha
Answer:
allows us to accept the null hypothesis
Explanation:
The z test(in a normal distribution) score for the critical region determines whether we reject the null hypothesis(H0) or accept the null hypothesis(reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis). If we fail to reject the null hypothesis, then we have accepted the alternative hypothesis (H1). The critical region rejection for z test is calculated using alpha and z score, if z score is greater or less than alpha(positive or negative), we reject the null hypothesis.

Answer:
Part A) y=1,100x + 4,500
Part B) 14,400
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A)
There is a base fee of $4,500, meaning that the line begins at y=4500 (i.e. The y-intercept is [0,4500], so 'b' in y=mx+b is 4,500). There is a $1,100 hourly rate, which is proportional to the value of x, the amount of hours filmed. Therefore, 'm' in y=mx+b is $1,100.
Thus, the final equation looks like:
y= 1,100x + 4,500
Part B)
x=9
y=1,100x+4,500
y=1,100(9)+4,500
y=9,900+4,500
y=14,400

Given
Force required to stretch spring 8 in. is 18 lb
it can be written
[tex]\Rightarrow F=kx\\\Rightarrow 18=k(8)\\\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{18}{8}=\dfrac{9}{2}\ lb/in.[/tex]
Work done in stretching from its natural length to 10 in.
[tex]\Rightarrow W=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2\\\\\Rightarrow W=0.5\times \dfrac{9}{2}\times (10)^2\\\\\Rightarrow W=225\ lb.in.\ or\\\Rightarrow W=18.75\ lb.ft[/tex]
Mr. Montes is writing a short, three-question, true or false quiz for his Algebra 2 classes. He had planned on using a random answer generator to determine which of true or false would be the correct answer for each quiz question, but his internet is not working. Instead, he writes each possible answer combination on a small slip of paper, folds each paper in half, and then places them in a box. Without looking, he draws one of the slips of paper.
Use what you know about counting methods and set operations to answer the following questions.
After grading the quizzes, Mr. Montes decides that his students could use some additional practice with the concepts tested. He writes a take-home assignment for his students. The assignment starts with two true or false questions and then has 3 multiple choice questions. The multiple choice questions each have 4 answer options, only 1 of which is correct. Luckily, Mr. Montes’ internet is working when he writes the quiz and he is able to use a random answer generator.
After grading the take-home assignments, Mr. Montes randomly selects 5 take-home assignments to analyze. He considers the student’s responses to the three multiple choice questions, which are as shown.
Student 1: Student 2: Student 3: Student 4: Student 5:
{C, A, C} {C, B, B} {C, B, C} {C, B, A} {C, A, A}
Amisha was too tired to work on the take home assignment Mr. Montes gave her, so she randomly selected answers without reading any of the questions. Suppose that you wanted to find the odds that Amisha answered at least 3 of the 5 questions correctly. Do you think you would use a permutation or a combination?
1. The correct responses for the multiple choice questions are, in order, C, B, and A. If Set 1 represents the subset of these students who answered C for number 1, Set 2 represents the subset of these students who answered B for number 2, and Set 3 represents the subset of students who answered A for number 3, find each of the following. Explain what each notation means in context of this scenario.
a. Set 1 ∩ Set 2
b. Set 2 ∪ Set 3
c. The complement of Set 1
2. Amisha was too tired to work on the take home assignment Mr. Montes gave her, so she randomly selected answers without reading any of the questions. Suppose that you wanted to find the odds that Amisha answered at least 3 of the 5 questions correctly. Do you think you would use a permutation or a combination?
Answer:
There are 4 questions to answer here and the answers are given below:
1. COMBINATION
2. SET 2
3. {S2, S3, S4, S5}
4. { } OR ∅
Step-by-step explanation:
The key topics here are PERMUTATION & COMBINATION and SETS & VENN DIAGRAMS.
The assignment has 5 questions in all. The options for each question are listed below and separated by commas:
1. True, False
2. True, False
3. A, B, C, D
4. A, B, C, D
5. A, B, C, D
Mr. Montes derives his answers from a random answer generator; same way Amisha generated her answers by random selection.
QUESTION 1
If you want to find the odds that Amisha got at least 3/5 of the answers correctly, would you use a permutation or a combination?
ANSWER TO QUESTION 1
You would use a combination. Note that as much as 'permutation' is distinctly defined from 'combination', in many complex cases both are used to derive the solution. In this case though, a combination is used. For each of the 5 questions, there are a number of possible answers. Questions 1 and 2 have only two possible answers (also known as options) while questions 3, 4 and 5 have four possible answers/options to choose from. Amisha can only have one set of five answers; each to each question. So this is a combination! If you want to find the odds that Amisha got at least 3 of her 5 answers correct, you would use a combination of the various possible answers to check.
QUESTION 2
Find "Set 1 ∩ Set 2" and explain the notation in the sentence.
ANSWER TO QUESTION 2
First list out relevant information:
- The correct answers to questions 3, 4 and 5 are respectively C, B, A
- The universal set consists of five students: S1, S2, S3, S4, S5 hence
Ц = {S1, S2, S3, S4, S5}
Next, enlist the elements of each defined set
Set 1: {S1, S2, S3, S4, S5} Set 2: {S2, S3, S4} Set 3: {S4, S5}
Note: Set 1 is equal to the universal set.
Now this notation "∩" means "intersect". It requires an action - checking out which elements in one set also appear in a second set and then bringing those elements to form a new set.
In the case of this question, we're to find Set 1 intersect Set 2. The elements present in Set 1 and also present in Set 2 are {S2, S3, S4}.
If you look closely, you'll observe that these are the same elements in Set 2! This brings to remembrance, one of the laws of sets:
The intersect of any subset and the universal set (recall that Set 1 happens to be equal to or have the same elements as the universal set) is equal to that subset.
So the answer to question 2 is
Set 1 ∩ Set 2 = Set 2
QUESTION 3
Find "Set 2 ∪ Set 3" and explain the notation in the sentence.
ANSWER TO QUESTION 3
The notation ∪ represents "union". This is the act of putting together the elements in two sets, to form a new set. In this activity, if an element appears in both sets, it is only written once in the new set, not twice.
So, Set 2 union Set 3 = {S2, S3, S4, S5}
As earlier stated, Student 4 isn't appearing twice in the new set.
QUESTION 4
Find the ' of Set 1 and explain the notation in this sentence.
ANSWER TO QUESTION 4
The symbol ' means "complement of a set". Finding the complement of a set is like subtracting the elements of that set from the universal set.
Since Set 1 contains the same elements as the universal set, subtracting Set 1 from the universal set will give you nothing. In this case, the complement of Set 1 is a null set!
Set 1 ' Ц = { } or ∅
where the empty bracket symbol and the slashed zero symbol represent null set.

What inequality is shown in the graph?
Answer:
The inequality shown in the graphic is [tex]y > 4x + 1[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of a line:
The equation of a line is given by:
[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]
In which m is the slope and b is the y-intercept(value of y when x = 0).
Inequality:
Values greater than the dashed line, dashed so the line is not part of the inequality, thus, the inequality is:
[tex]y > mx + b[/tex]
Dashed line:
The dashed line goes through (0,1) and (1,5).
Point (0,1) means that when [tex]x = 0, y = 1[/tex], so [tex]b = 1[/tex], and:
[tex]y > mx + 1[/tex]
Finding the slope:
When we have two points, the slope is given by the change in y divided by the change in x. In this question, we have point (0,1) and (1,5), so:
Change in y: 5 - 1 = 4
Change in x: 1 - 0 = 1
Slope: [tex]m = \frac{4}{1} = 4[/tex]

Answer:
0.236
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
x1 = 667 ; n1 = 10 s1 = 20
x2 = 679 ; n2 = 14 s2 = 15
Test statistic :
(x1 - x2) / √[Sp² (1/n1 + 1/n2)]
The pooled Variance, Sp² :
Sp² = [(n1 - 1)s1² + (n2 - 1)s2²] / (n1 + n2 - 2)
Sp² = [(9*20²) + (13*15²)] / (10+14-2)
Sp² = 6525 / 22 = 296.59
T = (667 - 679) / √(296.59*(1/10 + 1/14)
T = -12 / 50.844
T = 0.236
Test statistic = 0.236

Select the graph that correctly translates ƒ(x) = |x| 4 units in the negative x-direction and 3 units in the positive y-direction.
answers are the pictures
Answer:
The third graph
Step-by-step explanation:
What the translation is saying is that for each value of f(x) = |x|, the graph is translated 4 units in the negative x direction and 3 units for the positive y direction. Another way to say this is that for each f(x), we can add (-4) (or subtract 4) to its x value and add 3 to its y value.
One way to find which graph works is to take a point, figure out where it should be, and work from there.
One example of this is (-1,1). If x=-1, |x| is 1, so in the original graph, our point is (-1, 1). In our translated graph, we need to subtract 4 from the x component (the first number, which is -1 in this case) and add 3 to the y component (the second number, or 1 in this case). Our new point comes to
(-1-4 , 1+3)
= (-5, 4)
Therefore, one point on the resulting graph is (-5, 4). We can look through each graph and see if it has the point.
Looking at each graph, it is clear that the graph in the bottom left, or the third graph, contains the point.
The equation of the translated function will be f(x) = |x + 4| + 3. Then the correct option is C.
What is an absolute function?The absolute function is also known as the mode function. The value of the absolute function is always positive.
The absolute function is given as
f(x) = | x – h | + k
The function is given below.
f(x) = |x|
Then the function is translated 4 units in the negative x-direction and 3 units in the positive y-direction. Then the vertex will be at (-4, 3). Then the equation of the function will be
f(x) = |x + 4| + 3
Then the graph is given below.
Then the correct option is C.

Then, 780 chips manufactured by a new process were tested, and 130 of them failed. Find a 90% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of failures for chips manufactured by the two processes. (Round the final answers to four decimal places.) The 90% confidence interval is
Answer:
The 90% confidence interval is (0.0131, 0.0845).
Step-by-step explanation:
Before finding the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]
Subtraction between normal variables:
When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.
Old process:
125 out of 580, so:
[tex]p_O = \frac{125}{580} = 0.2155[/tex]
[tex]s_O = \sqrt{\frac{0.2155*0.7845}{580}} = 0.0171[/tex]
New process:
130 out of 780. So
[tex]p_N = \frac{130}{780} = 0.1667[/tex]
[tex]s_N = \sqrt{\frac{0.1667*0.8333}{780}} = 0.0133[/tex]
Distribution of the difference:
[tex]p = p_O - p_N = 0.2155 - 0.1667 = 0.0488[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{s_O^2+s_N^2} = \sqrt{0.0171^2 + 0.0133^2} = 0.0217[/tex]
Confidence interval:
[tex]p \pm zs[/tex]
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
90% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.1[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.645[/tex].
The lower bound of the interval is:
[tex]p - zs = 0.0488 - 1.645*0.0217 = 0.0131[/tex]
The upper bound of the interval is:
[tex]p + zs = 0.0488 + 1.645*0.0217 = 0.0845[/tex]
The 90% confidence interval is (0.0131, 0.0845).
