Centerville is the headquarters of Greedy Cablevision Inc. The cable company is about to expand service to two nearby towns, Springfield and Shelbyville. There needs to be cable connecting Centerville to both towns. The idea is to save on the cost of cable by arranging the cable in a Y-shaped configuation.

Answers

Answer 1

The location (x,0) that will minimize the amount of cable between the 3 towns is  x = 3.46

Consider that call L₁ total distance between Centerville and Springfield and L₂  total distance between Centerville and Shelbyville

Then, the total cable will be L₁ + L₂  

Noted that the length 12 - x  is common to the two distances.

Therefore, total distance  d = ( 12 - x ) + 2 √(x² ) + (6)²  

F(x) = 12 - x + 2*√ ( x² + 36 )

Taking derivatives on both sides of the equation;

F´(x) = -1 + 2 * 1/2 * 2*x/ √( x² + 36 )

F´(x) = - 1 + 2*x / √(x² + 36 )

F´(x) = 0

 -1 +  2*x/ √( x² + 36 ) = 0

Solving for x;

- √ ( x² +  36 ) + 2*x  = 0

- √ ( x² +  36 )  = - 2*x

 √ ( x² +  36 )  =  2*x

Taking squaring both sides;

x² + 36  = 4 x²

3*x² = 36

x² = 12

x =  3,46 m  

( 3,46 , 0 ) is the location for minimun length

Then total amount of cable is:

d  =  12 - 3,46 + 2 * √ (3,46)² + 36

d  = 8,54  + 2 * 6,92

d  = 22,38 m

Take the second derivative of F

F´´(x) = 0 + D/ dx (  2*x/ √( x² + 36 ) )

F´´(x) = [ 2*√( x² + 36 )  - 2*x [ x/√ ( x² + 36 ) ] / (x² + 36)

We can see that expression is an integer positive, since the second term is always smaller than the first one then we have a minimun for x = 3,46

The complete question is;

Centerville is located at (12,0) in the x -plane, Springfield is at (0,6) , and Shelbyville is at (0,−6) . The cable runs from Centerville to some point (x,0) on the x-axis where it splits into two branches going to Springfield and Shelbyville. Find the location (x,0) that will minimize the amount of cable between the 3 towns and compute the amount of cable needed.

Answers

The probability of 10 successes out of 12 trials with a success probability of 0.3 is 0.114.



To compute the probability of X successes using the binomial distribution table, we need to use the following formula:

P(X) = (n choose X) * p^X * (1-p)^(n-X)

where:
- P(X) is the probability of X successes
- n is the total number of trials
- p is the probability of success in each trial
- X is the number of successes we want to compute

Now, let's apply this formula to the given scenarios:

Part 1 of 4:
(a) -5, p=0.5, X=4
Since X cannot be negative, we cannot compute the probability for this scenario.

Part 2 of 4:
(b) n=9, p=0.8, X=6
P(X=6) = (9 choose 6) * 0.8^6 * 0.2^3
P(X=6) = 0.311

Therefore, the probability of 6 successes out of 9 trials with a success probability of 0.8 is 0.311.

Part 3 of 4:
(c) n=12, p=0.3, X=10
P(X=10) = (12 choose 10) * 0.3^10 * 0.7^2

Given y′′=2e^x+10 with y′(0)=2 and y(2)=2e^2. Find y(3).

Answers

The solution to the differential equation y′′=2eˣ+10 with initial conditions y′(0)=2 and y(2)=2e² is y(x) = eˣ + 5x² + (2e² - 29)x, and y(3) = e³ + 6e² - 42.

The given differential equation is y′′=2eˣ+10, with initial conditions y′(0)=2 and y(2)=2e². We can solve this equation using integration techniques.

First, we integrate the differential equation with respect to x once to obtain the first derivative y′(x):

y′(x) = ∫(2eˣ + 10) dx

y′(x) = 2eˣ + 10x + C₁

where C₁ is a constant of integration.

Next, we integrate y′(x) with respect to x again to obtain the original function y(x):

y(x) = ∫(2eˣ + 10x + C₁) dx

y(x) = eˣ + 5x² + C₁x + C₂

where C₂ is another constant of integration.

Using the initial condition y′(0)=2, we can solve for C₁:

y′(0) = 2 = 2e⁰ + 10(0) + C₁

C₁ = 0

Using the second initial condition y(2)=2e², we can solve for C₂:

y(2) = 2e² = e² + 5(2²) + 0 + C₂

C₂ = 2e² - 29

Therefore, the final solution is:

y(x) = eˣ + 5x² + (2e² - 29)x

Finally, we can use this solution to find y(3):

y(3) = e³ + 5(3²) + (2e² - 29)(3)

y(3) = e³ + 45 + 6e² - 87

y(3) = e³ + 6e² - 42

Let h be a continuous, positive, decreasing function on [2, [infinity]). Compare the values of the integralA = ∫16 h(x) dx 2 and the series B = Σ15 h(n) n=2 1. A > B 2. A < B3. A = B

Answers

The finite number of terms in the series B, it is possible that B < A for the given function h. The correct answer is: A < B.

H is a positive, decreasing function, we have:

h(2) > h(3) > h(4) > ... > h(15) > h(16)

Therefore, we can write:

h(2) + h(3) + h(4) + ... + h(15) > ∫[tex]2^{16[/tex] h(x) dx > h(16) + h(15) + ... + h(3) + h(2)

Integrating both sides of this inequality, we get:

h(2)(2 - 1) + h(3)(3 - 2) + h(4)(4 - 3) + ... + h(15)(15 - 14) > ∫2^16 h(x) dx > h(16)(16 - 15) + h(15)(15 - 14) + ... + h(3)(3 - 2) + h(2)(2 - 1)

Simplifying this, we get:

h(2) + 2h(3) + 3h(4) + ... + 14h(15) > ∫2^16 h(x) dx > h(16) + 2h(15) + 3h(14) + ... + 14h(3) + 15h(2)

Since h is a positive function, we can use the comparison test to compare the series B = Σ15 h(n) n=2 with the integral A = ∫16 h(x) dx 2 . Specifically, we have:

B = h(2) + h(3) + h(4) + ... + h(15) > A > h(16)

Therefore, we can conclude that:

B > A > h(16)

Since h is a continuous function and the interval [2, [infinity]) is unbounded, we have:

lim h(x) = 0

x→∞

Therefore, we can see that h(16) → 0 as x → ∞. This means that as the value of 16 becomes larger, the difference between B and A becomes smaller.

However, since we only have a finite number of terms in the series B, it is possible that B < A for the given function h. Therefore, the correct answer is:

A < B

A survey states that 280 out of 800 people smoke on a regular basis. Determine the required sample size if you want to be 90% confident that the sample proportion is within 3% of the population proportion.

Answers

We can use the formula for the margin of error to determine the required sample size:

Margin of error = z * sqrt(p*(1-p)/n)

where z is the critical value from the standard normal distribution corresponding to the desired confidence level (90% in this case), p is the population proportion (0.35 based on the survey results), and n is the sample size.

We want the margin of error to be no more than 3% of the population proportion, which means we want:

z * sqrt(p*(1-p)/n) <= 0.03*p

Solving for n, we get:

n >= (z^2 * p*(1-p)) / (0.03)^2

Plugging in the values, we get:

n >= (1.645^2 * 0.35*(1-0.35)) / (0.03)^2 = 1072.84

Write the equation of the hyperbola with the given characteristics:
•Center at (3, -2) with vertical transverse axis
•Perimeter of graphing aid rectangle is 32
•b/a=5/3

Answers

This hyperbola has a vertical transverse axis, with center at (3, -2), vertices at (3, 8) and (3, -12), and foci at (3, 4) and (3, -6).

How to solve the question?

To find the equation of the hyperbola, we will use the standard form equation:

((y-k)²/a²) - ((x-h)²/b²) = 1

Where (h,k) is the center of the hyperbola, a is the distance from the center to the vertices along the transverse axis, and b is the distance from the center to the vertices along the conjugate axis.

From the given information, we know that the center of the hyperbola is at (3, -2), and that the transverse axis is vertical. This means that the vertices are located at (3, -2 + a) and (3, -2 - a), where a is the distance from the center to the vertices.

We are also given that the perimeter of the graphing aid rectangle is 32. Since the graphing aid rectangle is formed by the four points that are furthest from the center (i.e. the four vertices of the hyperbola), we can use this information to find a.

Letting b/a = 5/3, we know that b = (3/5)a. Using the fact that the perimeter of the graphing aid rectangle is 32, we can set up the equation:

2a + 2b = 32

Substituting b = (3/5)a, we get:

2a + 2(3/5)a = 32

Solving for a, we get:

a = 10

Now that we have a, we can find b:

b = (3/5)a = 6

Thus, the equation of the hyperbola is:

((y + 2)²/100) - ((x - 3)²/36) = 1

This hyperbola has a vertical transverse axis, with center at (3, -2), vertices at (3, 8) and (3, -12), and foci at (3, 4) and (3, -6).

Answers

The probability that a certain tire of this brand will last between 56,010 miles and 56,580 miles is approximately 0.0811 or 8.11%.

To find the probability that a certain tire of this brand will last between 56,010 miles and 56,580 miles, we need to calculate the z-scores for both values and use the standard normal distribution.

First, we calculate the z-score for 56,010 miles:
z = (56010 - 60000) / 1900 = -2.11

Next, we calculate the z-score for 56,580 miles:
z = (56580 - 60000) / 1900 = -1.79

Now, we use a standard normal distribution table or calculator to find the area under the curve between these two z-scores:

P(-2.11 < Z < -1.79) = 0.0811

Therefore, the probability that a certain tire of this brand will last between 56,010 miles and 56,580 miles is approximately 0.0811 or 8.11%.

Answers

The flux of F across the surface S in the outward direction using divergence theorem is 6.5.

By the divergence theorem, we have:

∫∫S F · dS = ∭E ∇ · F dV

where E is the solid region enclosed by S, and ∇ · F is the divergence of the vector field F.

We can compute the divergence of F as follows:

∇ · F = (∂/∂x)(x + sin(y)) + (∂/∂y)(xz + y) + (∂/∂z)(cos(xy) + 2z)

= 1 + z - sin(y) + x

Substituting this into the formula for flux, we have:

∫∫S F · dS = ∭E (1 + z - sin(y) + x) dV

Since the volume of E is 5, we have:

∫∫S F · dS = ∭E (1 + z - sin(y) + x) dV = 5(1 + 0.5 - 0 + 0.5) = 6.5

Answers

Given y = f(x) with f(1) = 3 and f '(1) = 4,  g'(1) if g(x) = f(x)  g'(1) = 4 h'(1) = 2.

a) To find g'(1) if g(x) = f(x), we can simply take the derivative of g(x) using the chain rule:

g'(x) = f'(x) * 1

Since g(x) = f(x), we can substitute in f'(x) for g'(x) and 1 for x:

g'(1) = f'(1) * 1 = 4 * 1 = 4


b) To find h'(1) if h(x) = f(Vx), we will need to use the chain rule again:

h'(x) = f'(Vx) * (d/dx) Vx

Since Vx represents the square root of x, we can rewrite it as x^(1/2):

h'(x) = f'(x^(1/2)) * (d/dx) x^(1/2)

Using the power rule, we can simplify (d/dx) x^(1/2) to (1/2)x^(-1/2):

h'(x) = f'(x^(1/2)) * (1/2)x^(-1/2)

Now we can substitute in 1 for x and f'(1) for f'(x^(1/2)):

h'(1) = f'(1^(1/2)) * (1/2)(1^(-1/2)) = f'(1) * 1/2

What is the name of the appropriate statistic and the value of that statistic?

Chi square, .650

Chi square, 1.82

t, -1.44

t, 2.15

Answers

The appropriate statistic is chi-squared, and the value of that statistic is 1.82.

The appropriate statistic for testing the independence of two categorical variables is the chi-squared test.

The observed values in this case are:

Shift 1 with accident: 12

Shift 1 without accident: 175

Shift 2 with accident: 7

Shift 2 without accident: 151

We can use these observed values to calculate the expected values under the assumption of independence:

Shift 1 with accident (expected): (12+7)/345 * 187 = 8.94

Shift 1 without accident (expected): (175+151)/345 * 187 = 178.06

Shift 2 with accident (expected): (12+7)/345 * 158 = 10.06

Shift 2 without accident (expected): (175+151)/345 * 158 = 147.94

The chi-squared test statistic is then:

χ² = Σ (observed - expected)² / expected

Plugging in the numbers, we get:

χ² = (12-8.94)²/8.94 + (175-178.06)²/178.06 + (7-10.06)²/10.06 + (151-147.94)²/147.94 = 1.82

The degrees of freedom for this test is (number of rows - 1) * (number of columns - 1) = 1 * 1 = 1.

Looking up the critical value of the chi-squared distribution with 1 degree of freedom and a significance level of 0.05, we find that the critical value is 3.84.

Since our calculated chi-squared value (1.82) is less than the critical value (3.84), we fail to reject the null hypothesis that the variables are independent.

Therefore, the appropriate statistic is chi-squared, and the value of that statistic is 1.82.

Find the value of limx→−2(5x − x3), or state that it does not exist. Either way, explain in words.

Answers

The value of limx→−2(5x − x3) is -2.

To find the limit of the given function as x approaches -2, we can simply substitute -2 for x in the expression and simplify:

lim x→-2 (5x - x^3) = 5(-2) - (-2)^3 = -10 + 8 = -2

Therefore, the limit of the given function as x approaches -2 exists and is equal to -2.

Intuitively, as x approaches -2, the function 5x - x^3 becomes increasingly negative since the term x^3 dominates the expression. However, the function is still bounded and approaches a finite value, which is -2. This can be seen from the fact that as x approaches -2 from the left and from the right, the values of the function approach -2 from below and above, respectively.

In conclusion, the limit of the function exists and is equal to -2.

Maya and her husband are each starting a saving plan. Maya will initially set aside $650 and then add $135
every month to the savings. The amount A (in dollars) saved this way is given by the function A = 135N+ 650,
where N is the number of months she has been saving.
Her husband will not set an initial amount aside but will add $385 to the savings every month. The amount B
(in dollars) saved using this plan is given by the function B=385N.
Let T be total amount (in dollars) saved using both plans combined. Write an equation relating T to N.
Simplify your answer as much as possible.
T=

Answers

Answer:T=(X*520N)+650

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an equation relating T, the total amount saved, to N, the number of months, we need to add up the savings from both plans for each month:

T = A + B

Substituting the given expressions for A and B, we get:

T = (135N + 650) + (385N)

Simplifying and combining like terms, we get:

T = 520N + 650

Therefore, the equation relating T to N is T = 520N + 650.

Better Traffic Flow Have you ever driven along a street where it seems that every traffic light is red when you get there? Some engineers in Dresden, Germany, are looking at ways to improve traffic flow by enabling traffic lights to communicate information about traffic flow with nearby traffic lights. The data in TrafficFlow show results of one experimentº3 that simulated buses moving along a street and recorded the delay time in seconds) for both a fixed time and a flexible system of lights. The a a simulation was repeated under both conditions for a total of 24 trials. (a) What is the explanatory variable? What is the response variable? Is each categorical or quan- titative? (b) Use technology to find the mean and the stan- dard deviation for the delay times under each of the two conditions (Timed and Flexible). Does the flexible system seem to reduce delay time? (c) The data in TrafficFlow are paired since we have two values, timed and flexible, for each simulation run. For paired data we gener- ally compute the difference for each pair.

Answers

We can compute the difference in delay times between the two systems for each simulation run. The variable "Difference" stores these differences.

why computer take alot of time when we receiver our data?

The explanatory variable is the system of traffic lights (fixed time or flexible) and the response variable is the delay time in seconds. Both variables are quantitative.
Using technology, we find that the mean delay time for the fixed time system is 72.54 seconds with a standard deviation of 9.43 seconds. The mean delay time for the flexible system is 61.29 seconds with a standard deviation of 7.87 seconds. Based on these results, it seems that the flexible system does reduce delay time.
The data is paired, we can compute the difference in delay times between the two systems for each simulation run. The variable "Difference" stores these differences.

Answers

To determine if the mean launch temperature for flights with o-ring damage is significantly less than for flights with no o-ring damage, we can perform a two-sample t-test with equal variances. Here are the steps:

Step 1: Calculate the sample means and standard deviations for each group:

For flights with o-ring damage:

Sample mean: (43 + 57 + 58 + 63 + 70 + 70 + 75) / 7 = 63.14

Sample standard deviation: 13.42

For flights with no o-ring damage:

Sample mean: (66 + 67 + 67 + 67 + 68 + 69 + 70 + 70 + 72 + 73 + 75 + 76 + 76 + 78 + 79 + 81) / 16 = 72.56

Sample standard deviation: 5.69

Step 2: Calculate the pooled standard deviation:

s_p = sqrt(((n1-1)*s1^2 + (n2-1)*s2^2) / (n1+n2-2))

where:

n1 = sample size of flights with o-ring damage = 7

n2 = sample size of flights with no o-ring damage = 16

s1 = sample standard deviation of flights with o-ring damage = 13.42

s2 = sample standard deviation of flights with no o-ring damage = 5.69

s_p = sqrt(((7-1)*13.42^2 + (16-1)*5.69^2) / (7+16-2)) = 9.88

Step 3: Calculate the t-test statistic:

t = (x1 - x2) / (s_p * sqrt(1/n1 + 1/n2))

where:

x1 = sample mean of flights with o-ring damage = 63.14

x2 = sample mean of flights with no o-ring damage = 72.56

s_p = pooled standard deviation = 9.88

n1 = sample size of flights with o-ring damage = 7

n2 = sample size of flights with no o-ring damage = 16

t = (63.14 - 72.56) / (9.88 * sqrt(1/7 + 1/16)) = -2.70

Step 4: Calculate the degrees of freedom:

df = n1 + n2 - 2 = 7 + 16 - 2 = 21

Step 5: Determine the critical value of t at 5% level of significance and the corresponding p-value:

At 5% level of significance and 21 degrees of freedom, the critical value of t is ±2.08 (from a t-distribution table or calculator).

The p-value for a two-tailed test with t = -2.70 and df = 21 is 0.013 (from a t-distribution table or calculator).

Step 6: Compare the t-test statistic with the critical value and the p-value with the level of significance:

Since the absolute value of the t-test statistic (-2.70) is greater than the critical value of t at 5% level of significance (2.08), we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is a significant difference in mean launch temperature between flights with o-ring damage and flights with no o-ring damage.

Moreover, the p-value (0.013) is less than the level of significance (0.05), providing further evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

Therefore, we can say that the mean launch temperature for flights with o-ring damage is significantly less.

find the most general antiderivative of the function. (Check your answer by differentiation. Use C for the constant of the antiderivative.)

f(u)= (u^4+7(u)^0.5 ) / u^2

Answers

To find the most general antiderivative of the function f(u) = (u^4 + 7(u)^0.5) / u^2, we first rewrite the function to make it easier to integrate:

f(u) = u^4/u^2 + 7(u)^0.5/u^2 = u^2 + 7u^(-1.5)



Now, we find the antiderivative for each term:

∫(u^2) du = (1/3)u^3 + C1

∫(7u^(-1.5)) du = 7∫(u^(-1.5)) du = -14u^(-0.5) + C2

The most general antiderivative of f(u) is the sum of these two integrals:

F(u) = (1/3)u^3 - 14u^(-0.5) + C

Here, C = C1 + C2 is the constant of the antiderivative. To check the answer, we differentiate F(u):

F'(u) = d( (1/3)u^3 - 14u^(-0.5) + C )/du = u^2 + 7u^(-1.5)

Since F'(u) matches the original function f(u), the most general antiderivative is correct.

Question 1 Not yet answered Marked out of 5.00 Flag question The function f whose gradient vector is Vf(x,y) = (xlny + 2), 6x + y + 2) has only one critical point which is: = (-1 Select one: True Fals

Answers

The only critical point of the function f is  (-0.216, -0.308).

To find the critical point(s) of the function f, we need to solve the system of equations ∇f(x,y) = 0:

∂f/∂x = xlny + 2 = 0

∂f/∂y = 6x + y + 2 = 0

From the second equation, we can solve for y in terms of x:

y = -6x - 2

Substituting this into the first equation, we get:

xln(-6x - 2) + 2 = 0

To find critical points we use numerical methods to find an approximate solution.

x = -0.216

Substituting this value of x back into the equation y = -6x - 2, we get:

y = -0.308

Hence, the only critical point of the function f is  (-0.216, -0.308).

Damon measured a swimming pool and made a scale drawing. The scale of the drawing was 8 inches = 4 feet. What scale factor does the drawing use? Simplify your answer and write it as a fraction.​

Answers

the scale factor is 1/2, which can also be written as the fraction ½ or the decimal 0.5. This means that the dimensions in the drawing are half the size of the actual dimensions.

Why is it?

The scale of the drawing is 8 inches = 4 feet. This means that every inch on the drawing represents 4/8 = 1/2 feet in the actual pool.

To find the scale factor, we need to divide the length of the corresponding dimension in the drawing by the length of the actual dimension. Let's assume that the length of the pool in the drawing is L inches, and the actual length of the pool is l feet. Then we have:

L inches = (1/2) l feet

To solve for the scale factor, we can divide both sides by l inches:

L/l = (1/2)

So the scale factor is 1/2, which can also be written as the fraction ½ or the decimal 0.5. This means that the dimensions in the drawing are half the size of the actual dimensions.

Answers

The approximate value of t is 5.225. Therefore, the solution for t is approximately 2.9687. To solve for t in the given equation, we can follow these steps:

800(1.09)^t = 1400

Divide both sides by 800:

(1.09)^t = 1.75

Take the logarithm of both sides with base 1.09:

log(1.09)(1.09)^t = log(1.09)1.75

t = log(1.09)1.75

Using a calculator or LARAPCALC10, we can find that:

t ≈ 2.9687

To solve for t in the equation 800(1.09)^t = 1,400. The step-by-step explanation to find the value of t:

1. Divide both sides of the equation by 800:
(1.09)^t = 1,400/800

2. Simplify the right side:
(1.09)^t = 1.75

3. To solve for t, take the natural logarithm (ln) of both sides:
ln((1.09)^t) = ln(1.75)

4. Use the property of logarithms: ln(a^b) = b*ln(a)
t * ln(1.09) = ln(1.75)

5. Divide both sides by ln(1.09) to solve for t:
t = ln(1.75) / ln(1.09)

6. Calculate the value of t using a calculator:
t ≈ 5.225

So, the approximate value of t is 5.225.

Since an instant replay system for tennis was introduced at a major tournament, men challenged 1405 referee calls, with the result that 417 of the calls were overturned. Women challenged 750 referee calls, and 225 of the calls were overturned. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that men and women have equal success in challenging calls. Complete parts (a) through (c) below.

Answers

Using a two-sample proportion test with a significance level of 0.05, the null hypothesis that the proportion of successful challenges is the same for men and women was tested. The result indicates that there is not sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

To test the claim that men and women have equal success in challenging calls, we can use a hypothesis test. Our null hypothesis is that the proportion of successful challenges is the same for men and women, and our alternative hypothesis is that the proportions are different.

(a) We can set up our hypotheses as follows:

H0: p1 = p2 (the proportion of successful challenges is the same for men and women)

Ha: p1 ≠ p2 (the proportions are different)

where p1 is the proportion of successful challenges for men and p2 is the proportion of successful challenges for women.

(b) We can calculate the pooled proportion of successful challenges:

p = (x1 + x2) / (n1 + n2)

where x1 = 417, n1 = 1405 for men and x2 = 225, n2 = 750 for women.

p = (417 + 225) / (1405 + 750) = 0.278

(c) We can calculate the test statistic using the formula:

z = (p1 - p2) / sqrt(p * (1 - p) * (1/n1 + 1/n2))

where p1 = 417/1405, p2 = 225/750.

z = (0.297 - 0.3) / sqrt(0.278 * 0.722 * (1/1405 + 1/750)) = -0.455

Using a standard normal distribution table or calculator, the p-value for this test is 0.649. Since the p-value is greater than the significance level of 0.05, we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
