Answer:
The postage per ounce would be of $2.02.
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential model:
The postage, in t years after 1963, follows the following format:
[tex]P(t) = P(0)(1+r)^t[/tex]
In which P(0) is the initial value and r is the growth rate, as a decimal.
In 1963, postage was 5 cents per ounce.
This means that [tex]P(0) = 5[/tex]
So
[tex]P(t) = P(0)(1+r)^t[/tex]
[tex]P(t) = 5(1+r)^t[/tex]
In 1981, postage was 18 cents per ounce.
This means that [tex]P(1981 - 1963) = P(18) = 18[/tex]. We use this to find r. So
[tex]P(t) = 5(1+r)^t[/tex]
[tex]18 = 5(1+r)^{18}[/tex]
[tex](1+r)^{18} = \frac{18}{5}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt[18]{(1+r)^{18}} = \sqrt[18]{3.6}[/tex]
[tex]1 + r = (3.6)^{\frac{1}{18}}[/tex]
[tex]1 + r = 1.0738[/tex]
So
[tex]P(t) = 5(1.0738)^t[/tex]
If the trend had continued through to 2015, what would the postage per ounce be?
2015 - 1963 = 52, so this is P(52).
[tex]P(52) = 5(1.0738)^{52} = 202[/tex]
202 cents, so $2.02.

Prove that the square of an odd number is always 1 more than a multiple of 4
Answer:
By these examples you are able to see that the square of an odd number is always 1 more than a multiple of 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
For examples,
Let's consider squares of 3, 11, 25, 37 and 131.
[tex] {3}^{2} = 9[/tex]
8 is a multiple of 4, and 9 is more than 8.
[tex] {11}^{2} = 121[/tex]
120 is a multiple of 4 and 121 is one more than it.
[tex] {25}^{2} = 625[/tex]
624 is a multiple of 4 and 625 is one more than it.
[tex] {37}^{2} = 1369[/tex]
1368 is a multiple of 4 and 1369 is one more than 1368.
[tex] {131}^{2} = 17161[/tex]
17160 is a multiple of 4.

Find the probability that when a couple has children, at least one of them is a . (Assume that boys and girls are equally likely.)
Answer:
[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl) = 0.875[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]n = 3[/tex]
[tex]B \to boys[/tex]
[tex]G \to girls[/tex]
[tex]P(G) = P(B) = 0.5[/tex] --- equal probability
See comment for complete question
Required:
[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl)[/tex]
To do this, we make use of complement rule:
[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl) = 1 - P(No\ girl)[/tex]
The event that there is no girl out of the 3 children is: B B B
And the probability is:
[tex]P(No\ Girl) = P(B) * P(B) * P(B)[/tex]
[tex]P(No\ Girl) = 0.5*0.5*0.5[/tex]
[tex]P(No\ Girl) = 0.125[/tex]
So:
[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl) = 1 - P(No\ girl)[/tex]
[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl) = 1 - 0.125[/tex]

At a local community college, 57% of students who enter the college as freshmen go on to graduate. Five freshmen are randomly selected.
a. What is the probability that none of them graduates from the local community college? (Do not round intermediate calculations Round your final answer to 4 decimal places Probability
b. What is the probability that at most four will graduate from the local community college? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your final answer to 4 decimal places.)
c. What is the expected number that will graduate? (Round your final answer to 2 decimal places)
Answer:
a) 0.0147 = 1.47% probability that none of them graduates from the local community college.
b) 0.9398 = 93.98% probability that at most four will graduate from the local community college.
c) The expected number that will graduate is 2.85.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each student, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they will graduate, or they will not. The probability of a student graduating is independent of any other student graduating, 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.
57% of students who enter the college as freshmen go on to graduate.
This means that [tex]p = 0.57[/tex]
Five freshmen are randomly selected.
This means that [tex]n = 5[/tex]
a. What is the probability that none of them graduates from the local community college?
This is P(X = 0). So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{5,0}.(0.57)^{0}.(0.43)^{5} = 0.0147[/tex]
0.0147 = 1.47% probability that none of them graduates from the local community college.
b. What is the probability that at most four will graduate from the local community college?
This is:
[tex]P(X \leq 4) = 1 - P(X = 5)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{5,5}.(0.57)^{5}.(0.43)^{0} = 0.0602[/tex]
So
[tex]P(X \leq 4) = 1 - P(X = 5) = 1 - 0.0602 = 0.9398[/tex]
0.9398 = 93.98% probability that at most four will graduate from the local community college.
c. What is the expected number that will graduate?
The expected value of the binomial distribution is:
[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]
In this question:
[tex]E(X) = 5*0.57 = 2.85[/tex]
The expected number that will graduate is 2.85.

Step-by-step explanation:
A town has a current population of 4,000. The population increased 4 percent per year for the past four years, Emergency response professionals
make up 3 percent of the town's population.
Part A
Write a function that represents the population (p) of the town in terms of the number of years (1) for the last four years.
Answer:
p=c(1+r)^t so the population will be 4679.43424 or rounded to 4679
Step-by-step explanation:
p=c(1+r)^t
p=4,000(1+.04)^t
p=4,000(1.04)^t
p=4,000(1.04)^4
p=4679.43424
p= the population you are solving for
c= the initial amount of the population
(1+r)= the rate of change
t= the period of time
The exponential equation that represents the population of the town in terms of the number of years : [tex]p=4000 (1+0.4)^{t}[/tex]
What is an exponential equation?An exponential equation is an equation with exponents where the exponent (or) a part of the exponent is a variable.
It is similar to the amount received after investing a certain amount compounded annually.
Given,
Initial population = 4000
Rate of increase = 4%
Let current population be p.
Let number of years passed be t.
The exponential equation will be: [tex]p=4000 (1+0.4)^{t}[/tex]
(The population of the town has grown exponentially. This means that:
Initial population = 4000
Population in year I = 4000 + 4% of 4000 = 4000(1 + 0.4)
Population in year II = 4000 + 4% of 4000(1 + 0.4) = 4000(1 + 0.4)(1+0.4)
and this goes on.)

the mean of 5 numbers is 198. the numbers are in ratio 1:2:3:4:5 find the smallest number
Answer: 13.2
In fraction form, this is 66/5
=============================================================
Explanation:
The five values are in the ratio 1:2:3:4:5 which scales up to 1x:2x:3x:4x:5x for some positive number x.
Add up the pieces of the second ratio and set that sum equal to 198. Then solve for x.
1x+2x+3x+4x+5x = 198
15x = 198
x = 198/15
x = 66/5
x = 13.2 is the smallest number since 1x = 1*13.2 = 13.2 was the smallest value of the ratio 1x:2x:3x:4x:5x.

Agan Interior Design provides home and office decorating assistance to its customers. In normal operation, an average of 2.5 customers arrive each hour. One design consultant is available to answer customer questions and make product recommendations. The consultant averages 10 minutes with each customer. Compute the operating characteristics of the customer waiting line, assuming Poisson arrivals and exponential service times. Round your answers to four decimal places. Do not round intermediate calculations.
Answer:
the operating characteristics have been solved below
Step-by-step explanation:
we have an average of 10 minutes per customers
μ = mean service rate = 60/10 = 6 customers in one hr
the average number of customers that are waiting in line
mean arrival λ = 2.5
μ = 6
[tex]Lq = \frac{2.5^{2} }{6(6-2.5)} \\[/tex]
= 6.25/21
= 0.2976
we calculate the average number of customers that are in the system
[tex]L=Lq+\frac{2.5}{6}[/tex]
= 0.2976+0.4167
= 0.7143
we find the average time that a customer spends in waiting
[tex]Wq=\frac{0.2976}{2.5}[/tex]
= 0.1190 hours
when converted to minutes = 0.1190*60 = 7.1424 minutes
[tex]0.1190+\frac{1}{6}[/tex]
