A businesswoman in philadelphia is preparing an itinerary for a visit to six major cities. the distance traveled, and hence the cost of the trip, will depend on the order in which she plans her route. a how many different itineraries (and trip costs) are possible? b if the businesswoman randomly selects one of the possible itineraries and denver and san francisco are two of the cities that she plans to visit, what is the probability that she will visit denver before san francisco?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A) 720 possible itineraries

B) 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

She visited 6 cities.

A)Now, to get the number of different itineraries that are possible, we will use n! = n(n-1)(n-2)(n-3)....

In this question, n is 6

Thus;

6! = 6 × 5 × 4 × 3 × 2 × 1 = 720

B) First of all, let's calculate the number of sample points in the sample space for the number of cities visited. Since we are told that she visits san francisco and Denver, we will fix the two cities to be constant. Thus, we will have 6 cities, but permutate 4 of them. Which means, we have;

Ns = P(6, 4) = 6!/(6 - 4)! = 360

Thus;

P(visits Denver before San Francisco) = Ns/number of different itineraries that are possible = 360/720 = 0.5

For the following system, if you isolated x in the first equation to use the substitution method, what expression would you substitute into the second equation? −x + 2y = −6 3x + y = 8

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=2y+6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the system:

[tex]-x+2y=-6\\3x+y=8[/tex]

If we isolate the x-variable in the first equation:

[tex]-x+2y=-6[/tex]

Subtract 2y from both sides:

[tex]-x=-6-2y[/tex]

Divide both sides by -1:

[tex]x=2y+6[/tex]

Therefore, we would substitute the above into the second equation:

[tex]3x+y=8\\3(2y+6)+y=8[/tex]

The answer is 2y+6

Further notes:

To solve for the system, distribute:

[tex]6y+18+y=8[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]7y+18=8[/tex]

Subtract:

[tex]7y=-10[/tex]

Divide:

[tex]y=-10/7\approx-1.4286[/tex]

Now, substitute this value back into the isolated equation:

[tex]x=2(-10/7)+6\\x=-20/7+42/7\\x=22/7\approx3.1429[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by solving the equation for x (☓)

[tex] - x + 2y = 6 \\ \: \: \: \: \: 3 + y = 8[/tex]

[tex]x = 6 + 2y[/tex]

Substitute the given value of x for the equation 3 + y = 8

[tex]3(6 + 2y) + y = 8[/tex]

solve the equation for y

[tex]y = - \frac{10}{7} [/tex]

substitute the given value of y into the equation x = 6 + 2

[tex]x = 6 + 2 \times ( - \frac{10}{7} )[/tex]

solve the equation for x

[tex]x = \frac{22}{7} [/tex]

The possible solution of the system is the ordered pair (x,y)

[tex] (\frac{22}{7} . - \frac{10}{7} )[/tex]

The dot (.) in the center is supposed to be a comma but the scientific keyboard does not support a comma

[tex](x.y) \: \: ( \frac{22}{7} . - \frac{10}{7} )[/tex]

This is the solution

Find the coordinates of the other endpoint of the​ segment, given its midpoint and one endpoint.​ (Hint: Let​ (x,y) be the unknown endpoint. Apply the midpoint​ formula, and solve the two equations for x and​ y.) midpoint (-4,13) endpoint-(0,5)

Answers

Answer:

end point of a segment  X₂ = - 8 ;  Y₂ = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

given;

midpoint = ( Mx = -4 , My = 13 )

endpoint ₁  = ( X₁ = 0 ,  Y₁ = 5 )

find the other endpoint ₂ ( X₂ , Y₂)

use the mid point formula to get the other endpoint:

Mx = ( X₁ + X₂ ) / 2              My = ( Y₁ + Y₂ ) / 2

- 4 = (0 + X₂) / 2                 13 = (5 + Y₂) / 2

-8 = 0 + X₂                         26 = 5 + Y₂

X₂ = -8                                    Y₂ = 21

Asif makes a cuboid of plasticine of sides 75cm, 35cm and 21cm. How many such cuboids will he need to form a cube?

Answers

Answer:

The number of cuboids that will be needed to form a cube is 2625 cuboids

Step-by-step explanation:

To form a cube, we have;

The length = The height = The depth

The dimensions of the given cuboid = Length = 75 cm, the width = 35 cm, the depth = 21 cm.

Therefore;

The lowest common multiple of 75, 35, and 21, for the cuboid is given as follows;

75 = 5 × 5 × 3

35 = 5 × 7

21 = 3 × 7

Therefore, multiplying 75 by 7, we get;

75 × 7 = 525

Since 7, 5 and 3 are factors of 525, 35 and 21, can also be factors as we check;

525/35 = 15

525/21 = 25

Therefore, the cube will be;

The length of the cube will consist of 7 pieces of the cuboid, arranged with the side 75 cm facing the front

The depth of the cuboid will be 15 cuboids with the side 35 cm facing the sides

The height of the cuboid will be 25 cuboids with the side 21 cm high

The total number of cuboids is therefore;

7 × 15 × 25 = 2625 cuboids

The number of cuboids that will be needed to form a cube = 2625 cuboids.

Which statement is true? Group of answer choices 8.01 is a smaller increase in sales then 8.001. A debt of $17 is a larger value than a debt of $20. LaTeX: \frac{2}{3} 2 3 below zero is a lower temperature than 6 below zero. One half an apple is equivalent to 8 fourths apples.

Answers

Answer: The only true statement is:

" A debt of $17 is a larger value than a debt of $20."

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's analyze the options:

A) " 8.01 is a smaller increase in sales then 8.001"

Here you can see the difference:

8.01 - 8.001 = 0.009

The difference is positive, then 8.01 > 8.001.

Then as we are talking of increases in sales, the numbers are positive, then we have that 8.01 is a larger increase in sales than 8.001.

B) "A debt of $17 is a larger value than a debt of $20."

A debt is written as a negative number, then:

A debt of $17 is written as -$17, and a debt of $20 is written as -$20.

Then -$17 is a smaller negative number than -$20

-$17 > -$20

Then this statement is true.

C) " 2/3 bellow zero is lower than 6 bellow zero"

ok, 2/3 bellow zero is: -2/3

6 bellow zero is: -6

-2/3 is larger than -6

-2/3 > -6

then -6 is lower than -2/3, the statement is false.

D) "1/2 of an apple is equivalent to 8/4 apples"

Well, here you can do the quotients:

1/2 = 0.5

8/4 = 2

So these numbers are not equivalents.

Juana tiene en su tienda un costal con 28 libras de azucar.Hizo seis paquetes de 2,5 kg cada uno, de los cuales vendio cinco.¿Cuanta azucar quedo en el costal?

Answers

Answer:

Quedan 3 libras de azúcar en el costal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Una kilo es aproximadamente dos libras y dos libras y media equivalen a un paquete, para determinar la cantidad remanente de libras de azúcar luego de las ventas se calcula la masa vendida por regla de tres compuesta:

[tex]x = 5\,p \times \frac{2,5\,kg}{1\,p}\times \frac{2\,lb}{1\,kg}[/tex]

[tex]x = 25\,lb[/tex]

Juana vendió 25 libras de azúcar. Entonces, la masa remanente de azúcar en el costal es:

[tex]x = 28\,lb-25\,lb[/tex]

[tex]x = 3\,lb[/tex]

Quedan 3 libras de azúcar en el costal.

The total amount of sugar left in the sack is 3 pounds.

Using the conversion:

1 kg = 2lb

2.5kg =5lb

If she sold 5 pounds out of the total package, the amount of pounds sold will be 5 * 5lb = 25lb.

Amount of sugar left in the sack = Total  - amount sold

Amount of sugar left in the sack = 28lb - 25lb

Amount of sugar left in the sack = 3lb

find 5 rational numbers between 1/3 & 2/5​

Answers

Answer:

41/120, 7/20, 43/120, 11/30, 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the numbers.

1/3 & 2/5

We need a common denominator, but not the least common denominator. Both 3 and 5 are factors of 60, so let's use 60 as the common denominator.

Multiply 1/3 by 20/20:

1/3 = 20/60

Multiply 2/5 by 12/12:

2/5 = 24/60

Let's multiply each fraction again, but this time by 2/2.

1/3 = 40/120

2/5 = 48/120

Now it's easy to find 5 numbers between 40 and 48, so we get:

41/120, 42/120, 43/120, 44/120, 45/120

Some of these fractions can be reduced, so our answer is:

Answers

hi! to solve the question, how many necklaces did anne make in 16 hours if she makes 10 items in 2 standard 8-hour work days, we should first check the time she needs to make each item.

3 individual hours to make a necklace, and 1 hour to make a ring. according to the problem, she made 10 items in 16 hours. this problem will most likely be trial and error. let’s try one first guess.

my first guess will be, maybe she will make 6 rings and 4 necklaces. 6 times 1 is 6, which takes 6 hours for the rings. 4 times 3 is equal to 12. 6 + 12 is too high! let’s try again.

what about 6 rings and 2 necklaces? 6 times 1 is 6, so that’s 6 hours. 2 times 3 is 6 hours! 6 plus 6 is 12, which is close, but not quite there!

let’s try 7 rings and 3 necklaces! 7 times 1 is 7 hours. 3 times 3 is equal to 9 hours! total that together, 7 plus 9, is equal to 16 hours spent!

so, the answer would be, “Anne made 7 rings and 3 necklaces within 16 hours.” hope this helped!:)

The null hypothesis says that a sprinter's reaction time follows a normal distribution with mean at most 0.150 seconds. Six measurements of a sprinter's reaction time show 0.152, 0.154, 0.166, 0.147, 0.161, and 0.159 seconds. What is the p value

Answers

Answer:

The P-value is 0.0353.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the six measurements of a sprinter's reaction time show below;

X = 0.152, 0.154, 0.166, 0.147, 0.161, and 0.159 seconds.

Let [tex]\mu[/tex] = mean sprinter's reaction time

So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu \leq[/tex] 0.150 seconds    {means that the mean sprinter's reaction time is at most 0.150 seconds}

Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] > 0.150 seconds    {means that the mean sprinter's reaction time is more than 0.150 seconds}

The test statistics that will be used here is One-sample t-test statistics because we don't know about the population standard deviation;

                             T.S.  =    ~  

where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample mean = [tex]\frac{\sum X}{n}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{0.939}{6}[/tex] = 0.1565 seconds

            s = sample standard deviation =  [tex]\sqrt{\frac{\sum (X-\bar X)^{2} }{n-1} }[/tex] = 0.0068 seconds

            n = sample of measurements = 6

So, the test statistics =  [tex]\frac{0.1565-0.150}{\frac{0.0068}{\sqrt{6} } }[/tex]  ~  [tex]t_5[/tex]

                                    =  2.341  

The value of t-test statistics is 2.341.

Now, the P-value of the test statistics is given by the following formula;
