Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.0475

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the binomial approximation to the normal to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].

In a large company, the proportion of employees who were promoted during the last year was 0.10.

This means that [tex]p = 0.1[/tex]

100 employees

This means that [tex]n = 100[/tex]

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 100*0.1 = 10[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{100*0.1*0.9} = 3[/tex]

What is the probability that at least 15 of them were promoted during the last year?

This is [tex]P(X \geq 15)[/tex], which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 15. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{15 - 10}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.67[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.67[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9525

1 - 0.9525 = 0.0475.

0.0475 is the answer.

Answer:

choice 1) 0, -4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

1/(t² + t) = 1/t - 5

multiply both sides of the equation by (t² + t):

1 = (t² + t)/t - 5t² - 5t

1 = t + 1 - 5t² -5t

-5t² - 4t = 0

t(-5t - 4) = 0

t = 0

-5t = 4

divide both sides by -5:

t = -4/5

Express f(x) in the form f(x) = (x - k)q(x) +r for the given value of k.
f(x) = 4x^3+ x² + x-8, k= -1

Answers

Answer:

f(x) = (x + 1)*(4*x² - 3*x + 4) - 12

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

f(x) = 4*x³ + x² + x - 8

We want to write this in:

f(x) = (x - k)*q(x) + r.

with k = -1

Then we want to write:

4*x³ + x² + x - 8 = (x - (-1))*q(x) + r

4*x³ + x² + x - 8 = (x + 1)*q(x) + r

Because f(x) is polynomial of degree 3, we know that q(x) must be a polynomial of degree 2.

then:

q(x) = a*x² + b*x + c

Then:

4*x³ + x² + x - 8 = (x + 1)*(a*x² + b*x + c) + r

4*x³ + x² + x - 8 = a*x³ + b*x² + c*x   + a*x² + b*x + c + r

if we take common factors in the right side we get:

4*x³ + x² + x - 8 = a*x³ + (b + a)*x² + (c + b)*x + (c + r)

Now, we must have:

4*x³ = a*x³

then:

4 = a

We also must have:

x² = (b + a)*x²

1 = (b + 4)

1 - 4 = b

-3 = b

We also must have:

x = (c + b)*x

1 = (c + (-3))

1 + 3 = c

4 = c

And finally:

- 8 =  (c + r)

-8 = 4 + r

-8 - 4 = r

-12 = r

Then:

f(x) = (x + 1)*(4*x² - 3*x + 4) - 12

a. Above 337.8 grams.

b. Between 318.25 grams and 331.75 grams.

c. Above 316.59 grams.

d. Below 312.2 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 325 grams and a standard deviation of 10 grams.

This means that [tex]\mu = 325, \sigma = 10[/tex]

a. Highest 10 percent

This is X when Z has a pvalue of 1 - 0.1 = 0.9, so X when Z = 1.28.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]1.28 = \frac{X - 325}{10}[/tex]

[tex]X - 325 = 10*1.28[/tex]

[tex]X = 337.8[/tex]

So 337.8 grams.

b. Middle 50 percent

Between the 50 - (50/2) = 25th percentile and the 50 + (50/2) = 75th percentile.

25th percentile:

X when Z has a pvalue of 0.25, so X when Z = -0.675.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]-0.675 = \frac{X - 325}{10}[/tex]

[tex]X - 325 = -0.675*10[/tex]

[tex]X = 318.25[/tex]

75th percentile:

X when Z has a pvalue of 0.75, so X when Z = 0.675.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]0.675 = \frac{X - 325}{10}[/tex]

[tex]X - 325 = 0.675*10[/tex]

[tex]X = 331.75[/tex]

Between 318.25 grams and 331.75 grams.

c. Highest 80 percent

Above the 100 - 80 = 20th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.2. So X when Z = -0.841.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]-0.841 = \frac{X - 325}{10}[/tex]

[tex]X - 325 = -0.841*10[/tex]

[tex]X = 316.59[/tex]

Above 316.59 grams.

d. Lowest 10 percent

Below the 10th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.1, so X when Z = -1.28.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]-1.28 = \frac{X - 325}{10}[/tex]

[tex]X - 325 = -1.28*10[/tex]

[tex]X = 312.2[/tex]

Below 312.2 grams

The sum of angles of the triangle is 180degrees, hence;

9x - 72 + 73x + 11 = 180

82x - 61 = 180

82x = 180 + 61

82x  = 241

Divide both sides by 82

82x/82 = 241/82

Find the conjugate and product of

i2 + 9​

Answers

Answer:

i2 - 9

-85

Step-by-step explanation:

Conjugate of an expression is gotten by simply changing the sign to the opposite sign. For example, the conjugate of 5 is -5, the conjugate of x+2 is x-2. Given the complex value 2i+9, the conjugate will be -85

Taking their product

(2i+9)(2i-9)

Expand

2i(2i)-9(2i)+9(2i)+9(-9)

=  4i²-18-+18i-81

= 4i² - 81

Since i² = -1

= 4(-1) - 81

= -4-81

= -85

Hence the product will give -85

As a plumber charges a customer a one-time service fee of $ 79, $ 62 per hour for labor, and a surcharge of $ 15 per hour due to the call being an emergency, to write an expression to represent the total charges for the plumber in two different ways, with H representing the number of hours the job takes, the following equations should be formulated:

Option 1:

Fixed amount + amount per hour multiplied by the number of hours + emergency amount multiplied by the number of hours = X

79 + 62H + 15H = X

Option 2:

Fixed amount + sum of emergency amount and the amount per hour multiplied by the number of hours = X

B. The predicted number of organisms in the dish doubles every three days
C. The predicted number of organisms in the dish triples every day
D. The predicted number of organisms in the dish doubles every day

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

P(t) = 60 [tex](3)^{\frac{t}{2} }[/tex]

Then

P(1) = 60 × [tex]3^{\frac{1}{2} }[/tex] = 60[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]

P(2) = 60 × 3 = 180

P(3) = 60 × [tex]3^{\frac{3}{2} }[/tex] = 60 ×[tex]\sqrt{3^{3} }[/tex] = 60 × 3[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] = 180[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]

P(4) = 60 × 3² = 60 × 9 = 540

P(5) = 60 × [tex]3^{\frac{5}{2} }[/tex] = 60 × [tex]\sqrt{3^{5} }[/tex] = 60 × 9[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] = 540[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]

P(6) = 60 × 3³ = 60 × 27 = 1620

From these 6 results we see that

P(3) = 3 × P(1)

P(4) = 3 × P(2)

P(5) = 3 × P(3)

P(6) = 3 × P(4)
