Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 1ES
Solution:
The value of the variable for the equation
Explanation of Solution
Given Information:
The provided equation is
Formula used:
Steps to determine the value of an unknown variable.
1. When the equation includes the product of an unknown variable and a number then divide both sides by that number.
2. When the equation includes the quotient of an unknown variable and a divisor then multiply both sides by that divisor.
3. The solution of the equation is the number which is on the opposite side of the unknown variable.
4. Substitute the obtained value in the original equation to check the solution.
Calculation:
Consider the equation,
Divide both the sides by
Check the solution in the original equation,
Substitute
So, the solution is correct.
Therefore, the value of the variable for the equation

1. Find the solution set of In(x) sin(x) ≤ 0, for x = [0,14].
Suppose you are gambling on a roulette wheel. Each time the wheel is spun, the result is one of the outcomes 0, 1, and so on through 36. Of these outcomes, 18 are red, 18 are black, and 1 is green. On each spin you bet $5 that a red outcome will occur and $1 that the green outcome will occur. If red occurs, you win a net $4. (You win $10 from red and nothing from green.) If green occurs, you win a net $24. (You win $30 from green and nothing from red.) If black occurs, you lose everything you bet for a loss of $6.
a. Use simulation to generate 1,000 plays from this strategy. Each play should indicate the net amount won or lost. Then, based on these outcomes, calculate a 95% confidence interval for the total net amount won or lost from 1,000 plays of the game. (Round your answers to two decimal places and if your answer is negative value, enter "minus" sign.) I worked out the Upper Limit, but I can't seem to arrive at the correct answer for the Lower Limit. What is the Lower Limit?…

Refer to the excel data in the image provided to answer Part B. SoftBus Company sells PC equipment and customized software to small companies to help them manage their day-to-day business activities. Although SoftBus spends time with all customers to understand their needs, the customers are eventually on their own to use the equipment and software intelligently. To understand its customers better, SoftBus recently sent questionnaires to a large number of prospective customers. Key personnel—those who would be using the software—were asked to fill out the questionnaire. SoftBus received 82 usable responses, as shown in the file. You can assume that these employees represent a random sample of all of SoftBus's prospective customers. SoftBus believes it can afford to spend much less time with customers who own PCs and score at least 4 on PC Knowledge. Let's call these the "PC-savvy" customers.

Forces on the hand were measured for several common activities that veterinarians engage in when examining or treating horses. We will consider the forces on the hands for two tasks, lifting and using ultrasound. Assume that both sample sizes are 6, the sample mean force for lifting was 6.2 pounds with standard deviation 1.5 pounds, and the sample mean force for using ultrasound was 6.4 pounds with standard deviation 0.3 pounds.
