Find The Sum Of The Infinite Geometric Series -27, -9, -3, The Ratio Is /3 And U1 Is -27

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: C) -81/2

===================================================

Work Shown:

a = -27 = first term

r = 1/3 = common ratio, note how this is between -1 and 1

We start with -27 and multiply by 1/3 each time to get the next term

S = infinite sum

S = a/(1-r), which only works because -1 < r < 1 is true

S = -27/(1-1/3)

S = -27/(2/3)

S = (-27/1) divided by (2/3)

S = (-27/1) times (3/2)

S = (-27*3)/(1*2)

S = -81/2

As you generate and add up the terms of the sequence, the infinite sum slowly starts to approach -81/2 = -40.5; we'll never actually achieve this sum exactly. Think of it as approaching an asymptote.

Assume that random guesses are made for 7 ​multiple-choice questions on a test with 5 choices for each​ question, so that there are n=7 ​trials, each with probability of success​ (correct) given by  p=0.20. Find the probability of no correct answers.

Answer:

The  probability is [tex]P(X = 0 ) = 0.210[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The number of trial is  n =  7

    The  probability of  success is  p =  0.20

   

Generally the probability of failure is

       [tex]q = 1- 0.20[/tex]

       [tex]q = 0.80[/tex]

Given that this choices follow a binomial distribution as there is only two probabilities i.e success or failure

Then the probability is mathematically represented as

          [tex]P(X = 0 ) = \left n} \atop {}} \right. C_0 * p^{0} * q^{n- 0}[/tex]    

          [tex]P(X = 0 ) = \left 7} \atop {}} \right. C_0 * (0.2)^{0} * (0.8)^{7- 0}[/tex]

Here   [tex]\left 7} \atop {}} \right. C_0 = 1[/tex]

=>      [tex]P(X = 0 ) = 1 * 1* (0.8)^{7- 0}[/tex]

=>     [tex]P(X = 0 ) = 0.210[/tex]

Answer: x= -1, z=2, y= -4

Step-by-step explanation:

System of equations:

-5x - 4y - 3z= 15  +

-10x + 4y + 6z= 6

-15x         + 3z = 21  ------>  3 (-5x + z) = 7.3

-5x + z = 7

now,

-10x + 4y + 6z= 6

2(-5x + z) + 4y + 4z = 6

14 + 4y + 4z = 6

7 + 2y + 2z = 3

2y + 2z= -4

y+z=-2

Now we were using the equation: 20x + 4y + 4z = -28

20x + 4(y+z) = 20x -8= - 28

20 x = -20

x= -1

With this we can find y and z

X=-1

-5x + z = 7

z= 2

y+z=-2

y=-4

Finally we have: x= -1, z=2, y= -4

I hope this can help you.

A. 11.67
B. 4.89
C. 2.52
D. 23.87

Answers

Answer:

Standard deviation= 4.46

B) 4.89 is the nearest answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard deviation √variance

Variance= (summation (x-mean)²)/n

Mean= summation of numbers/total

Mean =( 12+13+ 7+5+15 18)/6

Mean= 70/6

Mean= 11.67

Variance=(( 12-11.67)²+(13-11.67)²+ (7-11.67)²+(5-11.67)²+(15-11.67)²+ (18-11.67)²)/6

Variance= (0.1089+1.7689+21.8089+44.4889+11.0889+40.0689)/6

Variance= 119.3334/6

The number of weekly hours spent on a smart device varies inversely with the person's age. If a 20-year-old person spends 52 hours on their smart device each week, how many hours does a 50-year-old person spend on their smart device?

Answers

Answer:

20.8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that hours (h) varies inversely with age (a) then the equation relating them is

h = [tex]\frac{k}{a}[/tex] ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition h = 52 when a = 20, thus

52 = [tex]\frac{k}{20}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 20 )

1040 = k

h = [tex]\frac{1040}{a}[/tex] ← equation of variation

f(x) = x^2 + 2x + 1, then for what values of x, f(x)=f(x+2) step by step plz​

Answers

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

given f(x) = x² + 2x + 1

f(x+2) = (x+2)² + 2(x+2) + 1

= x² 4x+4+2x+4+1

= x² + 6x + 9

for f(x) = f(x+2), simply equate the two expressions and solve for x

f(x) = f(x+2)

x² + 2x + 1 = x² + 6x + 9      (x² terms cancel out)

2x + 1 = 6x + 9  (subtract 1 from both sides)

2x  = 6x + 9 - 1

2x  = 6x + 8  (subtract 6x from both sides)

2x - 6x = 8

-4x = 8 (divide both sides by -4)

x = 8 / (-4)

In a local university, 10% of the students live in the dormitories. A random sample of 100 students is selected for a particular study. Carry answer to the nearest ten-thousandths. (Bonus Question)
a. What is the probability that the sample proportion (the proportion living in the dormitories) is between 0.172 and 0.178?
b. What is the probability that the sample proportion (the proportion living in the dormitories) is greater than 0.025?

Answers

Answer:

a

  [tex]P( 0.172 < X < 0.178 ) = 0.00354[/tex]  

b

  [tex]P( X >0.025 ) = 0.99379[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  population proportion is  [tex]p = 0.10[/tex]

    The sample size is  [tex]n = 100[/tex]

Generally the standard error is mathematically represented as

       [tex]SE = \sqrt{\frac{ p (1 - p )}{n} }[/tex]

=>   [tex]SE = \sqrt{\frac{ 0.10 (1 - 0.10 )}{100} }[/tex]

=>   [tex]SE =0.03[/tex]

The sample proportion (the proportion living in the dormitories) is between 0.172 and 0.178

   [tex]P( 0.172 < X < 0.178 ) = P (\frac{ 0.172 - 0.10}{0.03} < \frac{ X - 0.10}{SE} < \frac{ 0.178 - 0.10}{0.03} )[/tex]

  Generally  [tex]\frac{ X - 0.10}{SE} = Z (The \ standardized \ value \ of X )[/tex]

    [tex]P( 0.172 < X < 0.178 ) = P (\frac{ 0.172 - 0.10}{0.03} <Z < \frac{ 0.178 - 0.10}{0.03} )[/tex]

    [tex]P( 0.172 < X < 0.178 ) = P (2.4 <Z < 2.6 )[/tex]

   [tex]P( 0.172 < X < 0.178 ) = P(Z < 2.6 ) - P (Z < 2.4 )[/tex]

From the z-table  

      [tex]P(Z < 2.6 ) = 0.99534[/tex]

     [tex]P(Z < 2.4 ) = 0.9918[/tex]

[tex]P( 0.172 < X < 0.178 ) =0.99534 - 0.9918[/tex]  

 [tex]P( 0.172 < X < 0.178 ) = 0.00354[/tex]  

the probability that the sample proportion (the proportion living in the dormitories) is greater than 0.025 is mathematically evaluated as

        [tex]P( X >0.025 ) = P (\frac{ X - 0.10}{SE} > \frac{ 0.0025- 0.10}{0.03} )[/tex]

        [tex]P( X >0.025 ) = P (Z > -2.5 )[/tex]

From the z-table  

        [tex]P (Z > -2.5 ) = 0.99379[/tex]

Thus

      [tex]P( X >0.025 ) = P (Z > -2.5 ) = 0.99379[/tex]

Number of observation = 45

4.9 lies between 3.3 and 5.5

x*n = 24 observation x*n = 25 observation

x*45= 24 x*45= 25

x= 0.533 x= 0.556

Thus percentile lies between 53.3% and 55.6 %

Step-by-step explanation:

LCM of polynomials is:

=> Finding the factors of all the numbers and variable in the expression

=> Next, we multiply the unique numbers and the variable of the expression to find the LCM.

So, C is the correct answer.

The LCM of a set of polynomials  is the product of the prime factors that are either unique to or shared by the polynomials.  

What is LCM of polynomial?

To find the lowest common multiple (L.C.M.) of polynomials, we first find the factors of polynomials by the method of factorization and then adopt the same process of finding L.C.M.

Example : The L.C.M. of 4a2 - 25b2 and 6a2 + 15ab.

Factorizing 4a2 - 25b2 we get,

(2a)2 - (5b)2, by using the identity a2 - b2.

= (2a + 5b) (2a - 5b)

Also, factorizing 6a2 + 15ab by taking the common factor '3a', we get

= 3a(2a + 5b)

L.C.M.  is 3a(2a + 5b) (2a - 5b)

According to the question

The LCM of a set of polynomials is

 is the product of the prime factors that are either unique to or shared by the polynomials.  

(from above example we can see that )

Hence,  It is the product of the prime factors that are either unique to or shared by the polynomials.

Answer:

(-2, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Point A is at (2, -8) and point C is at (-4, 7)

Difference of coordinates:

Δx = 2 - (-4) = 6Δy = - 8 - 7 = - 15

The ratio of AB to AC is 2:1. So:

AB = 2*AC/3 and BC = AC/3

Then coordinates of point B should be 2/3 from the point A:

x = 2- 6*2/3 = 2 - 4 = -2y = - 8 - (-15)*2/3 = -8 + 10 = 2

So point B has coordinates of (-2, 2)

5. What is the solution of the following linear system?
y= 3x + 1
2y = 6x + 2
O A. (5,-2)
OB. (34)
C. Infinitely many solutions
D. No solution

Answers

Answer:

C. Infinitely many solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

First, simplify the second equation by dividing it by 2

2y = 6x + 2

y = 3x + 1

Now, we can see that both equations are the same, both y = 3x + 1.

Since they are the same line, this means that there are infinitely many solutions.

So, the correct answer is C.

Answer:

a. the probability that her pulse rate is less than 76 beats per minute is 0.5948

b. If 25 adult females are randomly​ selected,  the probability that they have pulse rates with a mean less than 76 beats per minute is 0.8849

c.   D. Since the original population has a normal​ distribution, the distribution of sample means is a normal distribution for any sample size.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Mean μ =73.0

Standard deviation σ =12.5

a. If 1 adult female is randomly​ selected, find the probability that her pulse rate is less than 76 beats per minute.

Let X represent the random variable that is normally distributed with a mean of 73.0 beats per minute and a standard deviation of 12.5 beats per minute.

Then : X [tex]\sim[/tex] N ( μ = 73.0 , σ = 12.5)

The probability that her pulse rate is less than 76 beats per minute can be computed as:

[tex]P(X < 76) = P(\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}< \dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma})[/tex]

[tex]P(X < 76) = P(\dfrac{76-\mu}{\sigma}< \dfrac{76-73}{12.5})[/tex]

[tex]P(X < 76) = P(Z< \dfrac{3}{12.5})[/tex]

[tex]P(X < 76) = P(Z< 0.24)[/tex]

From the standard normal distribution tables,

[tex]P(X < 76) = 0.5948[/tex]

Therefore , the probability that her pulse rate is less than 76 beats per minute is 0.5948

b.  If 25 adult females are randomly​ selected, find the probability that they have pulse rates with a mean less than 76 beats per minute.

now; we have a sample size n = 25

The probability can now be calculated as follows:

[tex]P(\overline X < 76) = P(\dfrac{\overline X-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}< \dfrac{ \overline X-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}})[/tex]

[tex]P( \overline X < 76) = P(\dfrac{76-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}< \dfrac{76-73}{\dfrac{12.5}{\sqrt{25}}})[/tex]

[tex]P( \overline X < 76) = P(Z< \dfrac{3}{\dfrac{12.5}{5}})[/tex]

[tex]P( \overline X < 76) = P(Z< 1.2)[/tex]

From the standard normal distribution tables,

[tex]P(\overline X < 76) = 0.8849[/tex]

c. Why can the normal distribution be used in part​ (b), even though the sample size does not exceed​ 30?

In order to determine the probability in part (b);  the  normal distribution is perfect to be used here even when the sample size does not exceed 30.

Therefore option D is correct.

Since the original population has a normal distribution, the distribution of sample means is a normal distribution for any sample size.
