8. A substance has a half life of 2.347 minutes.
a. If the initial amount of the substance was 110.4 grams, how many half-lives will have passed
before the substance decays to 6.9 grams.
b. What is the total time of the decay?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a.) 4 half lives have passed

b) 9.388 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for exponential growth / decay is given as:

[tex]A=A_0b^{\frac{t}{c}}[/tex]

Where [tex]A[/tex] is the final population

[tex]A_0[/tex] is the initial population

[tex]b[/tex] is the growth factor

[tex]c[/tex] is the time taken for the growth 'b'

[tex]t[/tex] is the amount of time

Here, we are given that:

[tex]A[/tex] = 6. 9 grams

[tex]A_0[/tex] = 110.4 grams

[tex]b = \dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]c = 2.347[/tex] min

To find:

a.) Number of half lives taken for the decay.

b.) Total time in the decay.

Solution:

a.) Number of half lives taken for the decay is nothing but equal to [tex]\frac{t}{c}[/tex].

Putting the values in the formula, we get:

[tex]6.9=110.4\times \frac{1}2^{\frac{t}{c}}\\\Rightarrow 6.9=110.4\times 0.5^{\frac{t}{c}}\\\Rightarrow 0.0625=0.5^{\frac{t}{c}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{t}{c} =4[/tex]

Therefore, the answer is:

4 half lives have passed.

b.) Total time of decay. We have to find the value of [tex]t[/tex] here.

From answer of part a.):

[tex]\dfrac{t}{c} =4\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{t}{2.347} =4\\\Rightarrow t =\bold{9.388\ min}[/tex]

The following is a set of hypotheses, some information from one or more samples, and a standard error from a randomization distribution. Test H0 : p=0.28 vs Ha : p<0.28 when the sample has n=800, and p^=0.217 with SE=0.01.

Required:
Find the value of the standardized z-test statistic.

Answers

Answer:

Z = -6.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

[tex]\mathbf{H_o :p= 0.28}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{H_o :p < 0.28}[/tex]

Since the alternative hypothesis is less than 0.28, then this is a left-tailed hypothesis.

Sample sixe n = 800

[tex]\hat p[/tex] = 0.217

The standard error [tex]S.E(p) = \sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]S.E(p) = \sqrt{\dfrac{0.28(1-0.28)}{800}}[/tex]

[tex]S.E(p) \simeq0.015[/tex]

Since this is a single proportional test, the test statistics can be computed as:

[tex]Z = \dfrac{\hat p - p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \dfrac{0.217- 0.28}{0.01}[/tex]

Z = -6.3

We are using the z score formula when random samples

This is given as:

z = (x-μ)/σ/√n

where x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

n is the random number of samples

a.If 100 SAT scores are randomly selected, find the probability that they have a mean less than 1500.

For x = 1500, n = 100

z = 1500 - 1518/325/√100

z = -18/325/10

z = -18/32.5

z = -0.55385

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<1500) = 0.28984

Approximately = 0.2898

b. If 64 SAT scores are randomly selected, find the probability that they have a mean greater than 1600

For x = 1600, n = 64

= z = 1600 - 1518/325/√64.

z= 1600 - 1518 /325/8

z = 2.01846

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<1600) = 0.97823

P(x>1600) = 1 - P(x<1600) = 0.021772

Approximately = 0.0218

c. If 25 SAT scores are randomly selected, find the probability that they have a mean between 1550 and 1575

For x = 1550, n = 25

z = 1550 - 1518/325/√25

z = 1550 - 1518/325/5

z = 1550 - 1518/65

= 0.49231

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 1550) = 0.68875

For x = 1575 , n = 25

z = 1575 - 1518/325/√25

z = 1575 - 1518/325/5

z = 1575 - 1518/65

z = 0.87692

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x=1575) = 0.80974

The probability that they have a mean between 1550 and 1575

P(x = 1575) - P(x = 1550)

= 0.80974 - 0.68875

= 0.12099

Approximately = 0.1210

d. If 16 SAT scores are randomly selected, find the probability that they have a mean between 1440 and 1480

For x = 1440, n = 16

z = 1440 - 1518/325/√16

= -0.96

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 1440) = 0.16853

For x = 1480, n = 16

z = 1480 - 1518/325/√16

=-0.46769

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 1480) = 0.32

The probability that they have a mean between 1440 and 1480

P(x = 1480) - P(x = 1440)

= 0.32 - 0.16853

= 0.15147

Approximately = 0.1515

e. In part c and part d, why can the central limit theorem be used even though the sample size does not exceed 30?

The central theorem can be used even though the sample size does not exceed 30 because the population is normally distributed.

What were the coordinates of point B after being translated 4 units left

Answers

Answer: B' (x-4,y)

Step-by-step explanation: A figure which is moved from one location to antoher, without changing its size, shape or orientation, is a figure that went through translation.

So, when a point is translated, it means it changed its position.

Point B has x- and y-coordinates: B(x,y)

Point B' after being translated 4 units left means:

(x,y) → (x-4,y)

In other words, translated point B has coordinates

B(x-4, y)

Because moving left is saying the point is moving towards the negative "side" of the x-axis.

Daniel bought a package of 12 water bottles for $6. Write an equation that relates the cost, c, of a package of water bottles to the number of bottles, b, in the package?

Answers

Answer:

c = 2b

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the cost of one water bottle by dividing the total cost by the number of water bottles:

12/6

= 2

Then, set up an equation.

2b, where b is the number of bottles, represents the cost of the package of water bottles.

Set this equal to c, the cost, to create the equation.

c = 2b is the equation relating the cost to the number of bottles

Marine biologists have been studying the effects of acidification of the oceans on weights of male baluga whales in the Arctic Ocean. One of the studies involves a random sample of 16 baluga whales. The researchers want to create a 95% confidence interval to estimate the true mean weight of male baluga whales. Their data follow a normal distribution. The population standard deviation of weights of male baluga whales is ????=125 kg, and the researchers feel comfortable using this standard deviation for their confidence interval.
Assuming the relevant requirements are met, calculate the margin of error in estimating the true mean weight of male baluga whales in the Artic Ocean.
a. 15.31 kg
b. 51.40 kg
c. 61.25 kg
d. 80.49 kg

Answers

Answer:

c. 61.25 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error in estimating the true mean weight of male baluga whales in the Artic Ocean.

a. 15.31 kg

b. 51.40 kg

c. 61.25 kg

d. 80.49 kg

Margin of Error Formula= z × Standard deviation/√n

95% confidence interval = 1.96

Standard deviation = 125kg

n = 16 samples

Margin of error= 1.96 × 125/√16

= 1.96 × 125/4

= 245/4

= 61.25kg

The margin of error in estimating the true mean weight of male baluga whales in the Artic Ocean is 61.25kg

A can of paint will cover 400 square feet. What is the length of the edge of the largest square that can be painted with this can of paint?

Answers

For the area of a circle is πr² as you stated so all you do is set 400 equal to πr² and solve for r.

400=πr²/π
127.32=r²
√127.32)= r
r=11.3

Same thing for this except you use 800 instead of 400 so.

800=πr²
254.64=r²
√254.64)= r
r=15.9 or 16.0 for rounding purposes.
