The 11th term of an progression is 25 and the sum of the first 4 terms is 49. The nth term of the progression is 49
1. Find the first term of the progression and the common difference
2. Find the value of n

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

For 1: The first term is 10 and the common difference is [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

For 2: The value of n is 27

Step-by-step explanation:

The n-th term of the progression is given as:

[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d[/tex]

where,

[tex]a_1[/tex] is the first term, n is the number of terms and d is the common difference

The sum of n-th terms of the progression is given as:

[tex]S_n=\frac{n}{2}[2a_1+(n-1)d][/tex]

where,

[tex]S_n[/tex] is the sum of nth terms

For (1):

The 11th term of the progression:

[tex]25=a_1+10d[/tex]               .......(1)

Sum of first 4 numbers:

[tex]49=\frac{4}{2}[2a_1+3d[/tex]              ......(2)

Forming equations:

[tex]98=8a_1+12d[/tex]

[tex]25=a_1+10d[/tex]                  ( × 8)

The equations become:

[tex]98=8a_1+12d[/tex]

[tex]200=8a_1+80d[/tex]

Solving above equations, we get:

[tex]102=68d\\\\d=\frac{102}{68}=\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Putting value in equation (1):

[tex]25=a_1+10\frac{3}{2}\\\\a_1=[25-15]=10[/tex]

Hence, the first term is 10 and the common difference is [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

For 2:

The nth term is given as:

[tex]49=10+(n-1)\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Solving the above equation:

[tex]39=(n-1)\frac{3}{2}\\\\n-1=26\\\\n=27[/tex]

Hence, the value of n is 27

Three bags contain 3 red, 7 black; 8 red, 2 black, and 4 red & 6 black balls
respectively. 1 of the bags is selected at random and a ball is drawn from it. If the ball
drawn is red, find the probability that it is drawn from the third bag.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Probability = \frac{4}{15}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

B1 = first bag

B2= second bag

B3 = third bag

Let A = ball drawn is red

Since, there are three bags.

Probability of choosing one bag=  P(B1) = P(B2) = P(B3) = 1/3.

From B1: Total balls = 10

3 red + 7 black balls.

Probability of drawing 1 red ball from it , P(A) = 3/10.

From B2: Total balls = 10

8 red + 2 black

Probability of drawing 1 red ball is, P(A) = 8/10

From B3 : Total Balls = 10

4 red + 6 black

Probability of drawing 1 red ball, P(A) = 4/10 .

To find Probability given that the ball drawn is red, that the ball is drawn from the third bag by Bayes' rule.

That is , P(B3|A)

                     [tex]=\frac{\frac{1}{3} \times \frac{4}{10}} { \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{3}{10} + \frac{1}{3} \times\frac{8}{10} + \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{4}{10}}[/tex]

   

                    [tex]=\frac{4}{30} \times \frac{30}{15}\\\\=\frac{4}{15}[/tex]

Therefore, the probability that it is drawn from the third bag is 4/15.

Answer:

4/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution of conditional probability problem:

Given:

Bags (3R,7B), (8R,2B), (4R,6B)

Let

P(R,i) = probability of drawing a red AND from bag i

P(R, 1) = 3/10 * (1/3) = 3/30

P(R, 2) = 8/10 * (1/3) = 8/30

P(R, 3) = 4/10 * (1/3) = 4/30

Let

Let P(R) = probability of drawing a red from any bag

P(R) = sum P(R,i)  for i = 1 to 3   using the addition rule

= 3/30 + 8/30 + 4/30

= 15/30

= 1 / 2

Conditional Probability of drawing from the third bag GIVEN that it is a red

= P(3 | R)

= P(R, 3) / P(R)

= 4/30 / (1/2)

= 8/30

= 4 / 15

(Since all bags contain 10 balls, by intuition, 4 red from third / 15 total red = 4/15)

(x-h)² + (y-k)² = r²

Since the center is (-2,1) and the radius is

2, we know that:

h = -2k = 1r = 2

Thus, the equation of the circle is:

(x-(-2))² + (y-1)² = 2²

This simplifies to be

(x+2)² + (y-1)² = 4

The equation of the circle is:

(x+2)² + (y-1)² = 4

Answers

Answer:

So, to fill the tray completely , he needs 3 bags of sand.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tray dimensions,

length = 0.8 m

Width = 0.6 m

height = 0.1 m

Volume of one sand bag = 17000 cm^3

Let the volume of the tray is V.

V = length x idth x height

V = 0.8 x 0.6 x 0.1 = 0.048 m^3

Number of sand bags

[tex]n=\frac{0.048}{17000\times 10^{-6}}\\\\n = 2.82[/tex]

So, to fill the tray completely , he needs 3 bags of sand.

Calls to a customer service center last on average 2.8 minutes with a standard deviation of 1.4 minutes. An operator in the call center is required to answer 75 calls each day. Assume the call times are independent. What is the expected total amount of time in minutes the operator will spend on the calls each day

Answers

Answer:

The expected total amount of time the operator will spend on the calls each day is of 210 minutes.

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-values of normal variable:

Suppose we have n values from a normally distributed variable. The mean of the sum of all the instances is [tex]M = n\mu[/tex] and the standard deviation is [tex]s = \sigma\sqrt{n}[/tex]

Calls to a customer service center last on average 2.8 minutes.

This means that [tex]\mu = 2.8[/tex]

75 calls each day.

This means that [tex]n = 75[/tex]

What is the expected total amount of time in minutes the operator will spend on the calls each day

This is M, so:

[tex]M = n\mu = 75*2.8 = 210[/tex]

The expected total amount of time the operator will spend on the calls each day is of 210 minutes.

Hey there! The topic for this problem is Limit of Function!

As for the question, we are given the quadratic function and we have to find the limit, the value that approaches to a.

[tex] \large \boxed{lim_{x \longrightarrow a} f(x)}[/tex]

We call this, "The limit of f(x) when x approaches a."

Then you may ask, "How do we find the limit of function?". That is a very nice question! The answer to your problem is just substitute x-value in. Although this substitution method only applies when the approaching value doesn't make the denominator to 0. I believe that in the beginning of Limit topic, we learn how to find or evaluate the basic limit that only requires substitution.

So from the question, we receive:

[tex] \large{lim_{x \longrightarrow 2} ( {x}^{2} - 3x - 1)}[/tex]

Next step is to substitute x = 2 in the function.

[tex] \large{lim_{x \longrightarrow 2} ( {2}^{2} - 3(2) - 1)}[/tex]

Evaluate the value.

[tex] \large{lim_{x \longrightarrow 2} ( 4 - 6 - 1)} \\ \large{lim_{x \longrightarrow 2} ( - 3)}[/tex]

Cancel the limit out and there you have it!

[tex] \large \boxed{ - 3}[/tex]

Answer

The limit of quadratic function when x approaches 2 is -3.

Now whenever you learn limit, you must know that limit is when we substitute the approaching value. That means x —> 2 is not x = 2 but x approaches 2.

Regarding the limit, any questions and doubts can be asked through comment and I will get back to you soon!

Assume that a population is normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. Would it be unusual for the mean of a sample of 3 to be 115 or more? Why or why not?

Answers

Answer:

|Z| < 2, which means that it would not be unusual for the mean of a sample of 3 to be 115 or more.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

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.

If [tex]|Z| > 2[/tex], the value of X is considered to be unusual.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Assume that a population is normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15.

This means that [tex]\mu = 100, \sigma = 15[/tex]

Sample of 3

This means that [tex]n = 3, s = \frac{15}{\sqrt{3}}[/tex]

Would it be unusual for the mean of a sample of 3 to be 115 or more? Why or why not?

We have to find the z-score.

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{115 - 100}{\frac{15}{\sqrt{3}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.73[/tex]

|Z| < 2, which means that it would not be unusual for the mean of a sample of 3 to be 115 or more.
