Bell metal which is a form of bronze is used for casting bells. It is an alloy of copper and tin. To make bell metal requires 17 parts of copper to every 3 parts of tin. (6) (i) Express this requirement as a ratio (ii) Express the amount of tin required as a percentage of the total (iii) If the total amount of tin in a particular casting is 150 kg, find the amount of copper

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

you need 17 parts copper and 3 parts tin in order to make brass

1. ratio of copper with respect to brass: 17:20

  ratio of tin with respect to brass: 3:20

  ratio of tin with respect to copper:   3:17

2. percentage of tin required in brass:  fraction of tin in brass X 100

  3/20 X 100 = 15%

3. if we used 150 kg tin in the alloy, then 150 kg is 15 % of the alloy

  (from last answer)

  150/x X 100 = 15%

  x = 1000 kg

if the total brass formed is 1000 kg, and 150 kg of it is tin,

copper used = 1000 - 150 = 850 kg copper

Answers

Answer:

Relative frequency

Step-by-step explanation:

In a    relative frequency distribution, the frequency of a class is replaced with a proportion or percent.

A relative frequency distribution displays how the proportion of totality of the observations related to each class is correlated to the probability distribution. A relative frequency distribution shows the proportion of times a value occurs in each class. It can be determined by the division of the frequency with the total number of data values.

To determine the 'intervals of increase' and 'intervals of decrease' we can refer to the graph with respect to the x - axis.

• Knowing that t = x - axis, the 'intervals of increase' as an inequality would be 1 < x < 3, and 4 < x < ∞. Therefore we have our intervals of increase as (1,3) and (4, ∞).

• Respectively our 'intervals of decrease' as inequalities would be - ∞ < x < 1, and 3 < x < 4. Our intervals of decrease would then be (- ∞, 1) and (3,4).

• We are left with our local extrema and absolute extrema. Now remember the absolute extrema is the absolute lowest point in the whole graph, while the local extrema is the lowest point in a restricted interval. In this case our local extrema is our maximum, (3,1). But this maximum is not greater than the starting point (0, 4) so it appears, and hence their is no absolute extrema.

Answer:

  both are positive even composite integers with a common factor of 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Both are positive even composite integers with a common factor of 8. They are solutions to the quadratic equation (x-16)(x-24) = 0. Their cube roots (or any root of index greater than 2) are irrational. They are divisors of 48.

There are also many things that both numbers are not. They are not the lengths of sides of a right triangle with integer side lengths. They are not negative or irrational. They are not triangle numbers or elements of the Fibonacci sequence.

Find the rate of change of f(x, y, z) = xyz in the direction normal to the surface yx2 + xy2 + yz2 = 3 at (1, 1, 2).

Answers

Answer:

Rate of change = 18/√74

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change of f at x_o in the direction of the unit vector v is given by: ∇f(x_o) × v

Now, for us to get the direction of the unit vector, since we are told that f(x, y, z) = xyz in the direction normal to the surface yx² + xy² + yz² = 3, we will use; g(x, y, z) = yx² + xy² + yz² = 3 and k =3 to give;

∇g(x,y,z) = (2xy + y², (x² + 2xy + z²), 2yz)

So;

∇g(1, 1, 2) = (2(1 × 1) + 1²) , (1² + 2(1 × 1) + 2²), 2(1 × 2))

This gives;

∇g(1, 1, 2) = (3, 7, 4)

Now,

||∇g(1, 1, 2)|| = √(3² + 7² + 4²)

||∇g(1, 1, 2)|| = √74

Normal vector would be given by the formula;

v = [∇g(1, 1, 2)]/[||∇g(1, 1, 2)||]

Thus;

v = (3, 7, 4)/√74

Let's not forget that our ∇f(1, 1, 2) = (1, 1, 2)

Thus, rate of change is given by;

∇f(1, 1, 2) × v = (1, 1, 2) × (3, 7, 4)/√74

This gives;

Rate of change = [(1 × 3) + (1 × 7) + (2 × 4)]/√74 = 18/√74

In a Pew Research Center poll of 745 randomly selected adults, 589 said that it is morally wrong to not report all income on tax returns. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that 75% of adults say that it is morally wrong to not report all income on tax returns.a. What is the null and alternative hypothesis?b. What is the test statistic?c. What is the P-value?d. What is the Conclusion?

Answers

Answer:

a

 

   The  null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o : p = 0.75[/tex]

  The  alternative  hypothesis is  [tex]H_a : p \ne 0.75[/tex]

b

   [tex]t = 2.51[/tex]

c

   [tex]p-value = 0.01207[/tex]

d

 There no sufficient evidence to conclude that 75% of adults say that it is morally wrong to not report all income on tax returns

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  sample  size is  [tex]n = 745[/tex]

     The  number that said it is morally wrong is  [tex]k = 589[/tex]

       The  level of significance is  [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]

        The population proportion is [tex]p = 0.75[/tex]

Generally the sample  proportion is mathematically represented as

        [tex]\r p = \frac{k}{n}[/tex]

=>     [tex]\r p = \frac{589}{745}[/tex]

=>     [tex]\r p = 0.79[/tex]

 The  null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o : p = 0.75[/tex]

  The  alternative  hypothesis is  [tex]H_a : p \ne 0.75[/tex]

The  standard error is mathematically represented as

     [tex]SE = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]SE = \sqrt{\frac{0.75(1-0.75)}{745} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]SE =0.0159[/tex]

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

      [tex]t = \frac{\r p - p }{SE}[/tex]

=>   [tex]t = \frac{0.79 - 0.75 }{0.0159}[/tex]

=>    [tex]t = 2.51[/tex]

Generally the p-value is  mathematically represented as

        [tex]p-value = 2 * P(Z > 2.51)[/tex]

From the the z-table  

            [tex]P(Z > 2.51) = 0.0060366[/tex]

=>   [tex]p-value = 2 * 0.0060366[/tex]

=>   [tex]p-value = 0.01207[/tex]

From the calculation  [tex]p-value >\alpha[/tex]

    Hence we fail to reject the null hypothesis

Thus there no sufficient evidence to conclude that 75% of adults say that it is morally wrong to not report all income on tax returns

This is incorrect according to the graph.

4) Fourth Statement: [False]

Almonds cost $0.45 per pound

0.45 lb = $2.3

Dividing both sides by 0.45

Answer:

Domain : (- ∞, - 5), and (3 / 2, ∞),

Range : (∞, 0.4437]

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that we want our answer in interval notation, let's start by determining the domain. Remember that the domain can be found where the function is undefined.

Given : f(x) = (2x - 7) / (2x² + 7x - 15)

Alternative Form : (2x - 7) / (x + 5)(2x - 3)

To receive this 'alternative form' we can simply factor the expression 2x² + 7x - 15. See the procedure below,

[tex]\mathrm{Given : 2x^2+7x-15} ,[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Break\:the\:expression\:into\:groups : \left(2x^2-3x\right)+\left(10x-15\right)} ,[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Factor\:out\:}x\mathrm{\:from\:}2x^2-3x\mathrm{:\quad }x\left(2x-3\right),\\\mathrm{Factor\:out\:}5\mathrm{\:from\:}10x-15\mathrm{:\quad }5\left(2x-3\right),[/tex]

[tex]x\left(2x-3\right)+5\left(2x-3\right) = \left(2x-3\right)\left(x+5\right) - \mathrm{Factored\:expression}[/tex]

Now let's find the domain using the expression '(x + 5)(2x - 3) = 0.' If the denominator equals 0, the function is considered undefined.

[tex]\mathrm{Given : \left(x+5\right)\left(2x-3\right)=0} ,\\x+5=0:\quad x=-5, 2x-3=0:\quad x=\frac{3}{2}\\\mathrm{The\:solutions\:are: x=-5,\:x=\frac{3}{2}}[/tex]

Knowing these solutions the domain has the intervals (- ∞, - 5), and (3 / 2, ∞). The range is the set of values that correspond to the domain, so in this case the range would be (∞, 42 + 8√17 / 169]. 42 + 8√17 / 169 = (About) 0.4437, so it lies on the interval (∞, 0.4437].

x + y = 12 and y = x - 1.
Find the value of 2x + 2y.

Answers

Answer: 2x + 2y = 24

Explanation:

x + y = 12

2(x + y = 12)
2x + 2y = 24

So therefore, 2x + 2y = 24

Answer:

2x + 2y = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to isolate y and then use substitution.

x + y = 12       and         y = x - 1        

-x       -x          

y = -x + 12       and         y = x - 1

-x + 12 = x - 1

+x          +x

--------------------

12 = 2x - 1

+1          +1

----------------

13 = 2x

2x = 13              [ divide both sides by 2]

x = 6.5

Now, you have to plug x (6.5) into y = x - 1.

y = x - 1

y = 6.5 - 1

y = 5.5

Finally, plug both x (6.5) and y (5.5) into 2x + 2y.

2x + 2y

= 2 (6.5) + 2 (5.5)

= 13 + 11

= 24

4x/4 = 80/4

x = 20

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle we have here is a right angle. Right angles have a total measure of 90°. Therefore, the two parts must equal 90°:

Thus, we have the equation:

[tex](x)+(3x+10)=90[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]4x+10=90[/tex]

Subtract 10 from both sides. The left side cancels:

[tex](4x+10)-10=90-10\\4x=80[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4. The left side cancels:

[tex](4x)/4=(80)/4\\x=20[/tex]

Thus, x is 20°.
