How many ounces of a 20% saline solution must be added to 40 ounces of a 10% solution to produce a 16% solution?
---------------------------------------
One-variable solution:
Equation:
0.20x + 0.10*40 = 0.16(x+40)
Multiply thru by 100 to get:
20x + 10*40 = 16x + 16*40
4x = 6*40
x = 6*10
x = 60 oz (amt of 20% solution needed in for the mixture)

Shelly is three years older than Michele. Four years ago the sum of their ages was 67. Find the age of the person now.
----------------------
Equation:
S = M+3
(S-4)+(M-4) = 67
----------------------
Modify the 2nd equation:
S + M = 67+8 = 75
---
Substitute for "S" and solve for "M":
M+3 + M = 75
2M = 72
M = 36 (Michele's age now)

Since S = M+3, S = 39 (Shelly's age now)

Vong grilled 21 burgers at a block party. He grilled the same number of pounds of turkey burgers as hamburgers. Each turkey burger weighed 1/4 pound and each hamburger weighed 1/3 pound. How many of each did Vong grill?
---------------------
Quantity Eq: t + h = 21
Weight Eq::: (1/4)t - (1/3)h = 0
---------------------------------------
Modify the equations:
3t - 4h = 0
3t + 3h = 3*21
-------------------
Subtract 1st from the 2nd:
7h = 3*21
h = 9 (# of turkey burgers grilled)
------------------
Since t + h = 21, h = 12 (# of hamburgers grilled)

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If the graph of f is decreasing on [0,infinity)the what can be said about the graph of y=f(-x)+1? The graph of y=-f(x)-1?
-----------------------------------------
f(-x) + 1 is a reflection in the y-axis and a +1 vertical shift.
---
If f(x) is decreasing to the right of the y-axis
f(-x) will be increasing to the left of the y-axis.
The +1 will move all points 1 unit up but the function
will still be increasing on (-infinity,0]
--------------------------------------------------------
-f(x)-1 is a reflection in the x-axis followed by a vertical shift down one
If f(x) is decreasing to the right of the y-axis
-f(x) will be increasing to the right of the y-axis.
The -1 will move all points 1 unit down but the function
will still be increasing on [0,+infinity)

Probability-and-statistics/276388: A company claims to have invented a hand-held sensor that can detect the presence of explosives inside a closed container. Law enforcement and security agencies are very interested in purchasing several of the devices if they are shown to perform effectively. An independent laboratory arranged a test. They placed four empty boxes in the corners of an otherwise empty room. For each trial they put a small quantity of an explosive in one of the boxes selected at random. The company's technician then entered the room and used the sensor to try to determine which of the four boxes contained the explosive. The experiment consisted of 50 trials, and the technician was successful in finding the explosive 16 times. Does this indicate that the device is effective in sensing the presence of explosives?

Ho: p >= 0.5
Ha: p < 0.5
-------------
2. Was your test one-tail lower, or two tail? Explain why you chose that kind of test in this situation.
--
One-tail lower because we are assuming a detection level higher than random.
We do not want to have a rejection interval where p-hat is a high number,
only where p-hat is a lower number.
--------------------------------------------

3. Explain what your P-value means in this context.
The p-value will be the probability that test results could give
stronger evidence for rejecting Ho.

We roll a pair of dice. If the sum of the dice is 7, you pay $30. If the sum is not 7, I pay you the number of dollars indicated by the sum of the dice. What is your expected value for the game?
------------------------------------------
Random "Values" to the player: -30 , 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 , 8, 9, 10, 11, 12
P(get sum of 2) = 1/36
P(get sum of 3) = 2/36
P(get sum of 4) = 3/36
P(get sum of 5) = 4/36
P(get sum of 6) = 5/36
P(get sum of 7) = 6/36
P(get sum of 8) = 5/36
P(get sum of 9) = 4/36
P(get sum of 10)= 3/36
P(get sum of 11) = 2/36
P(get sum of 12) + 1/36
---------------------------------
Procedure:
E(x) = (2+12)(1/36) + (3+11)(2/36) + (4+10)(3/36) + (5+9)(4/36) + (6+8)(5/36)
-30(6/36)
----
E(x) = (14/36)[(1+2+3+4+5)]-30(6/36)] = (7/18)(15)-5 = +83 cents

Solve the problem. The difference between two numbers is 4. Two times the smaller number minus four times the larger is -28. What are the numbers?
-----------------------
x - y = 4
2y - 4x = -28
-----------------------------
Rearrange:
-2y + 2x = 8
2y - 4x = -28
------------------------
Add and solve for "x":
-2x = -20
x = 10
-----
Substitute and solve for "y":
10-y = 4
y = 6

Travel_Word_Problems/276065: At 2:00 p.m. two cars start toward each other from towns 240 miles apart. If the rate of one car is 10 mph faster than the other, how fast does each car go if they meet at 5:00 p.m.?

At 2:00 p.m. two cars start toward each other from towns 240 miles apart. If the rate of one car is 10 mph faster than the other, how fast does each car go if they meet at 5:00 p.m.?
--------------------
Slower Car DATA:
distance = x ; time = 3 hrs ; rate = d/t = x/3 hrs
-------------------------
Faster Car DATA:
distance = (240-x) ; time = 3 hrs ; rate = d/t = (240-x)/3
-----------------------------
Equation:
faster rate - slower rate = 10 mph
(240-x)/3 - x/3 = 10 mph
240-x - x = 30
-2x = -210
x = 105 miles
----
slower car rate = 105/3 = 35 mph
faster car rate = 35+10 = 45 mph

Probability-and-statistics/275990: You are responsible for reliability of the electronic product that your company produces.

You decide to measure the time between equipment malfunctions over a one-year period. Over that time you measured 40 electronic products. You made 850 observations with a mean time between equipment failures of 550.35 hours, and a sample standard deviation of 207 hours.

Your company supplies the electronic product to another company as a component to their product. You guarantee an average time between malfunctions of 600 or more hours.

Calculate a 99% confidence interval estimate for the mean time between malfunctions for all electronics of this type then interpret the results to assess whether your company will have a problem with this guarantee. Explain your reasoning?

Probability-and-statistics/275991: You have measured the temperature of a large number of patients at a local clinic.

You find the 95% confidence interval to be 96.7 and 99.1.

In another sample of a large number of patients a mistake was made in an entry.

a. If instead of an entry of 98.6 an error was made and entered as 9.86, what is the effect on the confidence interval? Explain.

b. If instead of an entry of 98.6 an error was made and entered as 986, what is the effect on the confidence interval? Explain.

c. What tips you to a confidence interval that needs investigation for error?

a. If instead of an entry of 98.6 an error was made and entered as 9.86, what is the effect on the confidence interval? Explain.
The sample mean (x-bar) will be lower so the confidence
interval will slide to the left.
b. If instead of an entry of 98.6 an error was made and entered as 986, what is the effect on the confidence interval? Explain.
The sample mean (x-bar) will be higher so the CI will slide to the right.

c. What tips you to a confidence interval that needs investigation for error?
The range of the CI seems to be out of keeping with the range of the data.

Probability-and-statistics/275992: As the new city planner for a developing community you need to project a budget for garbage trucks. To support your numbers you will use an estimate of the mean weight of garbage discarded weekly by household.

a. Find the sample size necessary to estimate the mean if you want to be 90% confident that the sample mean is within 2 pounds of the true population mean. A sample of 62 households produced a standard deviation = 12.46 pounds

Try it again at a 95% and a 99% confidence and indicate the change in the sample size and why you think this is so.


b. Give an example from your workplace of a problem that requires you to determine a sample size.
