Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The equation for the exponential function is f(x) = 0.5(0.25)ˣ after applying the concept of the function.

What is an exponential function?

It is defined as a function that rapidly increases and the value of the exponential function is always positive. It denotes with exponent y = aˣ

where a is a constant and a>1

It is given that:

A 2-column table has 2 rows. The first column is labeled x with entries negative 2, negative 1, 0, 1, 2. The second column is labeled f (x) with entries 8, 2, 0.5, 0.125, and 0.03125.

x     f(x)

-2     8

-1      2

0      0.5

1       0.125

2       0.03125

Let the function is:

f(x) = a(b)ˣ

Plug x = 0 and f(x) = 0.5

0.5 = a

Plug x = -1 and f(x) = 2

2 = 0.5(1/b)

b = 0.5/2 = 0.25

f(x) = 0.5(0.25)ˣ

Thus, the equation for the exponential function is f(x) = 0.5(0.25)ˣ after applying the concept of the function.

Answer:

101 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

First you add all the percentages

39 + 28 + 30 + 3 = 100%

To find the number of degrees of basketball you multiply 28% by 360 because it’s a circle.

28/100 * 360 = 10,080/100 = 100.8 ~ 101

Answers

Answer:

D. 212 degrees Fahrenheit and 100 degrees Celsius.

Step-by-step explanation:

The boiling point of water in Celsius is 100.

The way to calculate Celsius to Fahrenheit:

F = (C × 9/5) + 32

So we plug in 100 for C.

F = (100 × 9/5) + 32

F = 180 + 32

F = 212

Therefore, the numbered pair is 212 degrees F and 100 degrees  C.

A company that produces DVD drives has a 12% defective rate. Let X represent the number of defectives in a random sample of 55 of their drives.

Required:
a. What is the probability the sample will contain exactly 8 defective drives?
b. What is the probability the sample will contain more than 8 defective drives?
c. What is the probability the sample will contain less than 8 defective drives?
d. What is the expected number of defective drives in the sample?

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.1287 = 12.87% probability the sample will contain exactly 8 defective drives

b) 0.2092 = 20.92% probability the sample will contain more than 8 defective drives.

c) 0.6621 = 66.21% probability the sample will contain less than 8 defective drives.

d) The expected number of defective drives in the sample is 6.6

Step-by-step explanation:

For each DVD, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of a DVD being defective is independent of any other DVD, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

A company that produces DVD drives has a 12% defective rate.

This means that [tex]p = 0.12[/tex]

Let X represent the number of defectives in a random sample of 55 of their drives.

This means that [tex]n = 55[/tex]

a. What is the probability the sample will contain exactly 8 defective drives?

This is [tex]P(X = 8)[/tex]. So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 8) = C_{55,8}.(0.12)^{8}.(0.88)^{47} = 0.1287[/tex]

0.1287 = 12.87% probability the sample will contain exactly 8 defective drives.

b. What is the probability the sample will contain more than 8 defective drives?

This is:

[tex]P(X > 8) = 1 - P(X \leq 8)[/tex]

In which:

[tex]P(X \leq 8) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8)[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{55,0}.(0.12)^{0}.(0.88)^{55} = 0.0009[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{55,1}.(0.12)^{1}.(0.88)^{54} = 0.0066[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{55,2}.(0.12)^{2}.(0.88)^{53} = 0.0244[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{55,3}.(0.12)^{3}.(0.88)^{52} = 0.0588[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 4) = C_{55,4}.(0.12)^{4}.(0.88)^{51} = 0.1043[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{55,5}.(0.12)^{5}.(0.88)^{50} = 0.1450[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 6) = C_{55,8}.(0.12)^{6}.(0.88)^{49} = 0.1648[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 7) = C_{55,7}.(0.12)^{7}.(0.88)^{48} = 0.1573[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 8) = C_{55,8}.(0.12)^{8}.(0.88)^{47} = 0.1287[/tex]

So

[tex]P(X \leq 8) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) = 0.0009 + 0.0066 + 0.0244 + 0.0588 + 0.1043 + 0.1450 + 0.1648 + 0.1573 + 0.1287 = 0.7908[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 8) = 1 - P(X \leq 8) = 1 - 0.7908 = 0.2092[/tex]

0.2092 = 20.92% probability the sample will contain more than 8 defective drives.

c. What is the probability the sample will contain less than 8 defective drives?

This is:

[tex]P(X < 8) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7)[/tex]

With the values we found in b.

[tex]P(X < 8) = 0.0009 + 0.0066 + 0.0244 + 0.0588 + 0.1043 + 0.1450 + 0.1648 + 0.1573 = 0.6621[/tex]

0.6621 = 66.21% probability the sample will contain less than 8 defective drives.

d. What is the expected number of defective drives in the sample?

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

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

The expected number of defective drives in the sample is 6.6

Solving (a): Set of ordered pair

A function y = f(x) is represented as (x,y)

1400 / 40 = 35

35 : 5, 7

but LCM(35, 40) = 2×2×2×5×7 = 280

and not 1400.

what is missing ?

1400 / 280 = 5

aha, another prime factor 5 is missing to get 1400.

Answer:

D. 157

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We want to find the value of the expression 4(x²+3)-2y is when x=-6 and y=-1/2

Let's first simplify the expression, as that will likely make it easier

Distribute 4 to both x² and 3

4x²+12-2y

That's the expression

Substitute -6 as x into the expression

4(-6)²+12-2y

Raise (-6) to the second power

4*36+12-2y

Multiply 36 by 4

144+12-2y

Add 12 and 144 together

156-2y

Now the expression is 156-2y

But remember that we know that y=-1/2, and we haven't substituted it into the expression yet

Substitute -1/2  as y into the expression

156-2(-1/2)

Multiply

156+2/2

Simplify

156+1

Add

Answer:

The numbers are 18 and 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\bar x_1 = 14[/tex]     [tex]n_1 = 17[/tex]

[tex]\bar x_2 = 13[/tex]     [tex]n_2 = 15[/tex]

[tex]a - b = 7[/tex] --- the difference of the 2 numbers

Required

Find a and b

We have:

[tex]\bar x = \frac{\sum x}{n}[/tex] -- mean formula

So, we have:

[tex]\bar x_1 = \frac{\sum x_1}{n_1}[/tex]

[tex]14 = \frac{\sum x_1}{17}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]\sum x_1 = 14 * 17[/tex]

[tex]\sum x_1 = 238[/tex]

When the two numbers are removed, we have:

[tex]\bar x_2 = \frac{\sum x_2}{n_2}[/tex]

[tex]13 = \frac{\sum x_2}{15}[/tex]

Cross multiply

[tex]\sum x_2 = 13 * 15[/tex]

[tex]\sum x_2 = 195[/tex]

The two numbers that were removed are:

[tex]a + b = \sum x_1 - \sum x_2[/tex]

[tex]a + b = 238 - 195[/tex]

[tex]a + b = 43[/tex]

Make a the subject

[tex]a= 43 - b[/tex]

We have:

[tex]a - b = 7[/tex]

Substitute [tex]a= 43 - b[/tex]

[tex]43 - b - b = 7[/tex]

[tex]43 - 2b = 7[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]2b = 43 - 7[/tex]

[tex]2b = 36[/tex]

Divide by 2

[tex]b = 18[/tex]

Substitute [tex]b = 18[/tex] in [tex]a= 43 - b[/tex]

[tex]a = 43 - 18[/tex]
