The variables x and y vary inversely. Use the given values to write an equation relating x and y. Then find y when x = 2.

1. x = -1, y = 29

2. x = 8, y = 11

Answers

Answer 1

1) The equation is:

y = -29/x

And when we evaluate in x = 2, we get y = -14.5

2)  The equation is:

y = 88/x

And when we evaluate in x = 2, we get y = 44

How to find the equation between x and y?

We know that the variables x and y vary inversely, then the equation between these variables will be something like:

y = k/x

Where k is a constant.

1) First we know that when x = -1, y = 29, replacing these values we will get:

29 = k/-1

-1*29 = k

-29 = k

Then the equation is:

y = -29/x

If now we evaluate in x = 2, we will get:

y = -29/2

y = -14.5

2) Now we know that x = 8 and y = 11, replacing these we get:

11 = k/8

11*8 = k

88 = k

So the equation is:

y = 88/x

If now we replace x by 2, we will get:

y = 88/2 = 44

Using the info given, solve for the missing value of the right triangle. Round each angle to the nearest degree, each length to the nearest tenth, & each trigonometric value to four decimal places, if necessary.
Opposite side = 14 in.
Adjacent side = 22 in.
cos θ = ?

Answers

Answer
Since this is a right triangle, we can use the inverse cosine function to solve for the angle θ.

cos θ = Opposite side / Adjacent side

cos θ = 14 / 22

cos θ = 0.6363

θ = cos^-1 (0.6363)

Guilty plea: 399

Not sent to prison:

Not-gulity plea: 29

A. What is the probability that a randomly selected defendant either pled guilty or was not sent to prison? (round to three decimal places as needed.)

Answers

Answer:

0.944

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, are you sure the datas are alright? We have a count of 1054 defendants while adding up all these numbers.

Assuming the datas are true, out of the 1054 defendants:

- 399 are sent to prison and guilty

- 567+29 = 596 aren't sent to prison.

Since we are looking for the probability that a randomly selected defendant either pled guilty or was not sent in prison, it means we have

[tex] \frac{399+596}{1054} = \frac{995}{1054} = 0.944[/tex]

(rounded to three decimal places).

to solve 2/5 x = 14, you multiply both sides of the equation by 5/2. your friend divides both sides of the equation by 2/5. who is right? explain.

Answers

Both of you are correct because using either way can solve the equation for the value of x.

How to solve for x ?

In the case of solving for x in  2/5 x = 14, the goal is to get rid of the fraction that is multiplying x on the left side. This can be done by either multiplying both sides of the equation by the inverse of 2 / 5 ( which is 5 / 2 ) or by dividing both sides by 2 / 5.

Doing either of these things would get rid of the 2 / 5 and give an answer to x as shown below :

Multiplying :

2/5 x = 14

5 / 2 x 2 / 5 x = 14 x 5 / 2

x = 35

Dividing :

2/5 x = 14

2 / 5 x / 2 / 5 = 14 / 2 / 5

x = 35

In a recent sample of 84 used car sales costs, the sample mean was $6,425 with a standard deviation of $3,156. Assume the underlying distribution is approximately normal.a. Which distribution should you use for this problem

Answers

Answer:

By the Central Limit Theorem, an approximately normal distribution, with mean $6425 and standard deviation $344.35.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes 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.

Sample mean was $6,425 with a standard deviation of $3,156

This means that [tex]\mu = 6425, \sigma = 3156[/tex]

Sample of 84:

This means that [tex]n = 84, s = \frac{3156}{\sqrt{84}} = 344.35[/tex]

Jana, because she has the highest ratio since 56 over 80 is greater than 50 over 80.

What is ratio?

The numerical relationship between two values that demonstrates how frequently one value contains or is contained within another.

Given:

In baseball, each time a player attempts to hit the ball, it is recorded.

The ratio of hits compared to total attempts is their batting average.

Each player on the team wants to have the highest batting average to help their team the most.

For the season so far,

Jana has hit the ball 7 times out of 10 attempts.

Tasha has hit the ball 10 times out of 16 attempts.

To find the ratio of batting average:

We must find the same number of attempts.

So,

Jana has ratio 7/10.

So, 56 /80 = 0.7

Tasha has ratio 10/16.

So, 50 / 80 = 0.625

in bundles of 3 and 5?
A. 10 bundles
B. 12 bundles C. 15 bundles D. 18 bundles​

Answers

Answer:

C. 15 bundles

Step-by-step explanation:

In this scenario, the okra seller intends selling his products in bundles of 3 and 5. This simply means that each bundle would either contain 3 okra or 5 okra.

Hence, to find the least number of okra that could be sold in these bundles, we would find the lowest common multiple (LCM) of 3 and 5.

LCM = 3 * 5

LCM = 15

Therefore, 15 is least number that okra can be packed in bundles of 3 and 5 because it's the lowest number that could be divided by both numbers at a time.
