9514 1404 393

Answer:

  -1

Step-by-step explanation:

We notice that we want term a1 and have terms a17 and a33. These terms (every 16-th term) form an arithmetic sequence. The middle term (a17) is the average of the other two, so we have ...

  a17 = (a1 +a33)/2

  2a17 -a33 = a1 = 2(10) -21 = -1

  a1 = -1

_____

Additional comment

You could go to the trouble to find the general term of the sequence.

  an = a1 +d(n -1)

  a17 = a1 + d(17 -1) = 10

  a33 = a1 + d(33 -1) = 21

Subtracting the first equation from the second, we have ...

  16d1 = 11

  d1 = 11/16

Using the first equation, we find ...

  a1 +(11/16)(17 -1) = 10

  a1 = 10 -11 = -1 . . . . same as above.

Step-by-step explanation:

See images. If it's not clear let me know.

F + V = E + 2

⇨ 9 + 14 = E + 2

⇨ 23 = E + 2

⇨ 23 - 2 = E

⇨ 21 = E

Hence , the number of edges in polyhedron is 21.

The number of edges of a polyhedron with 9 faces and 14 vertices have will be 21.

The polygon is a 2D geometry that has a finite number of sides. And all the sides of the polygon are straight lines connected to each other side by side.

here, we have,

Using Euler's formula, the number of the edges does a polyhedron with 9 faces and 14 vertices have

We know the formula for the edges of the polyhedron will be

By Euler's Formula

F + V = E + 2

The number of faces, vertices, and edges of a polyhedron are denoted by the letters F, V, and E.

Then we have

Solution

F = 9

V = 14

E = ?

Substuting the values

⇨ 9 + 14 = E + 2

⇨ 23 = E + 2

⇨ 23 - 2 = E

⇨ 21 = E

Hence , the number of edges in polyhedron is 21.

The set of numbers that Diane can choose is:

{54, 60, 66, 72, 78, 84, 90}

Finding common multiples of 2, 3, and 6:

A number is a multiple of 2 if the number is even.

A number is a multiple of 3 if the sum of its digits is multiples of 3.

A number is a multiple of 6 if it is a multiple of 2 and 3.

Then we only need to look at the first two criteria.

First, let's see all the even numbers in the range (49, 95)

These are:

{50, 52, 54, 56, 58, 60, 62, 64, 66, 68, 70, 72, 74, 76, 78, 80, 82, 84, 86, 88, 90, 92, 94}

All of these are multiples of 2.

Now we need to see which ones are multiples of 3.

To do it, we sum its digits and see if that sum is also a multiple of 3.

50: 5 + 0 = 5 this is not multiple of 3.

52: 5 + 2 = 7 this is not multiple of 3.

54: 5 + 4 = 9 this is multiple of 3, so 54 is a possible number.

And so on, we will find that the ones that are multiples of 3 are:

54: 5 + 4 = 9.

60: 6 + 0 = 6

66: 6 + 6 = 12

72: 7 + 2 = 9

78: 7 + 8 = 15

84: 8 + 4 = 12

90:9 + 0 = 9

Then the numbers that Diane could choose are:

{54, 60, 66, 72, 78, 84, 90}

Answer:

0.0049 = 0.49% probability that I spend more than 2 hours and 10 minutes waiting for the bus in one month.

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.

n instances of a normal variable:

For n instances of a normal variable, the mean is:

[tex]M = n\mu[/tex]

[tex]s = \sigma\sqrt{n}[/tex]

Mean of 4 minutes, standard deviation of 0.5 minutes:

This means that [tex]\mu = 4, \sigma = \sqrt{0.5}[/tex]

30 days:

[tex]M = 30(4) = 120[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{0.5}\sqrt{30} = \sqrt{0.5*30} = \sqrt{15}[/tex]

What is the probability that I spend more than 2 hours and 10 minutes waiting for the bus in one month (30 days)?

2 hours and 10 minutes is 2*60 + 10 = 130 minutes, so this probability is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 130. So

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

In this context, due to the 30 instances of the normal variable:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - M}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{130 - 120}{\sqrt{15}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.58[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.58[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9951.

1 - 0.9951 = 0.0049

0.0049 = 0.49% probability that I spend more than 2 hours and 10 minutes waiting for the bus in one month.

Answer:

5≤x≤7

Step-by-step explanation:

For a given function f(x), the average rate of change in a given interval:

a ≤ x ≤ b

is given by:

[tex]r = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}[/tex]

Here we have:

f(x) = 4*log(x + 2)

And we want to see which interval has the smallest average rate of change, so we just need fo find the average rate of change for these 4 intervals.

1)  1≤x≤3

here we have:

[tex]r = \frac{f(3) - f(1)}{3 - 1} = \frac{4*log(3 + 2) - 4*log(1 + 2)}{2} = 0.44[/tex]

2)  5≤x≤7

[tex]r = \frac{f(7) - f(5)}{7 - 5} = \frac{4*log(7 + 2) - 4*log(5 + 2)}{2} = 0.22[/tex]

3) 3≤x≤5

[tex]r = \frac{f(5) - f(3)}{5 - 3} = \frac{4*log(5 + 2) - 4*log(3 + 2)}{2} = 0.29[/tex]

4) −1≤x≤1

[tex]r = \frac{f(1) - f(-1)}{1 - (-1)} = \frac{4*log(1 + 2) - 4*log(-1 + 2)}{2} = 0.95[/tex]

So we can see that the smalles average rate of change is in 5≤x≤7

Step-by-step explanation:

we want to prove that A.M, G.M. and H.M between any two unequal positive numbers satisfy the following relations.

well, to do so let the two unequal positive numbers be [tex]\text{$x_1$ and $x_2$}[/tex] where:

the AM,GM and HM of [tex]x_1[/tex] and[tex] x_2[/tex] is given by the following table:

[tex]\begin{array}{ |c |c|c | } \hline AM& GM& HM\\ \hline \dfrac{x_{1} + x_{2}}{2} & \sqrt{x_{1} x_{2}} & \dfrac{2}{ \frac{1}{x_{1} } + \frac{1}{x_{2}} } \\ \hline\end{array}[/tex]

[tex] \displaystyle \rm AM \times HM = \frac{x_{1} + x_{2}}{2} \times \frac{2}{ \frac{1}{x_{1} } + \frac{1}{x_{2}} } [/tex]

simplify addition:

[tex] \displaystyle \frac{x_{1} + x_{2}}{2} \times \frac{2}{ \dfrac{x_{1} + x_{2}}{x_{1} x_{2}} } [/tex]

reduce fraction:

[tex] \displaystyle x_{1} + x_{2} \times \frac{1}{ \dfrac{x_{1} + x_{2}}{x_{1} x_{2}} } [/tex]

simplify complex fraction:

[tex] \displaystyle x_{1} + x_{2} \times \frac{x_{1} x_{2}}{x_{1} + x_{2}} [/tex]

reduce fraction:

[tex] \displaystyle x_{1} x_{2}[/tex]

rewrite:

[tex] \displaystyle (\sqrt{x_{1} x_{2}} {)}^{2} [/tex]

[tex] \displaystyle AM \times HM = (GM{)}^{2} [/tex]

hence, PROVEN

[tex] \displaystyle x_{1} > x_{2}[/tex]

square root both sides:

[tex] \displaystyle \sqrt{x_{1} }> \sqrt{ x_{2}}[/tex]

isolate right hand side expression to left hand side and change its sign:

[tex]\displaystyle\sqrt{x_{1} } - \sqrt{ x_{2}} > 0[/tex]

square both sides:

[tex]\displaystyle(\sqrt{x_{1} } - \sqrt{ x_{2}} {)}^{2} > 0[/tex]

expand using (a-b)²=a²-2ab+b²:

[tex]\displaystyle x_{1} -2\sqrt{x_{1} }\sqrt{ x_{2}} + x_{2} > 0[/tex]

move -2√x_1√x_2 to right hand side and change its sign:

[tex]\displaystyle x_{1} + x_{2} > 2 \sqrt{x_{1} } \sqrt{ x_{2}}[/tex]

divide both sides by 2:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{x_{1} + x_{2}}{2} > \sqrt{x_{1} x_{2}}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \boxed{ AM>GM}[/tex]

again,

[tex]\displaystyle \bigg( \frac{1}{\sqrt{x_{1} }} - \frac{1}{\sqrt{ x_{2}}} { \bigg)}^{2} > 0[/tex]

expand:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{x_{1}} - \frac{2}{\sqrt{x_{1} x_{2}} } + \frac{1}{x_{2} }> 0[/tex]

move the middle expression to right hand side and change its sign:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{x_{1}} + \frac{1}{x_{2} }> \frac{2}{\sqrt{x_{1} x_{2}} }[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{\frac{1}{x_{1}} + \frac{1}{x_{2} }}{2}> \frac{1}{\sqrt{x_{1} x_{2}} }[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \rm \frac{1}{ HM} > \frac{1}{GM} [/tex]

cross multiplication:

[tex]\displaystyle \rm \boxed{ GM >HM}[/tex]

hence,

[tex]\displaystyle \rm A.M>G.M>H.M[/tex]

Answer:

The value of the test statistic is 59.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

The test statistic for the population standard deviation is:

[tex]\chi^2 = \frac{n-1}{\sigma_0^2}s^2[/tex]

In which n is the sample size, [tex]\sigma_0[/tex] is the value tested and s is the sample standard deviation.

A sample of 45 bottles of soft drink showed a variance of 1.1 in their contents.

This means that [tex]n = 45, s^2 = 1.1[/tex]

The process engineer wants to determine whether or not the standard deviation of the population is significantly different from 0.9 ounces.

0.9 is the value tested, so [tex]\sigma_0 = 0.9, \sigma_0^2 = 0.81[/tex]

What is the value of the test statistic

[tex]\chi^2 = \frac{n-1}{\sigma_0^2}s^2[/tex]

[tex]\chi^2 = \frac{44}{0.81}1.1 = 59.75[/tex]

The value of the test statistic is 59.75.
