Answer:

  -2, 1, 4, 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with n=1. Put the value where n is in the expression and do the arithmetic.

  a1 = 3·1 -5 = -2

  a2 = 3·2 -5 = 1

  a3 = 3·3 -5 = 4

  a4 = 3·4 -5 = 7

Consider the following.

P = −0.1s3 + 6s2 + 400.

Required:
a. Find the amount s of advertising (in thousands of dollars) that maximizes the profit P (in thousands of dollars).
b. Find the point of diminishing returns.

Answers

Answer:

A) s = $40 (in thousands of dollars)

B) point of diminishing returns is at;

(20, 2000) in thousands of dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the profit function as;

P = −0.1s³ + 6s² + 400

A) To maximize the profit, we need to find the first derivative and equate it to zero.

Thus;

dP/ds = -0.3s² + 12s

At dP/ds = 0, we have;

-0.3s² + 12s = 0

0.3s² = 12s

0.3s = 12

s = 12/0.3

s = $40 (in thousands of dollars)

B) To find the point of diminishing returns, we need to find the 2nd derivative of the given profit function and equate to zero.

Thus;

d²P/ds² = -0.6s + 12

At d²P/ds² = 0, we have;

-0.6s + 12 = 0

0.6s = 12

s = 12/0.6

s = 20

At s = 20,

P = −0.1(20)³ + 6(20)² + 400

P = -800 + 2400 + 400

P = 2000

Thus; point of diminishing returns is at;

(20, 2000) in thousands of dollars

The coordinates of point T are (0,6). The midpoint of ST is (4.-6). Find the coordinates

point S.

Answers

Answer:

The coordinates of endpoint S are [tex]S(x,y) = (8,-18)[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]T(x, y) = (0, 6)[/tex] and [tex]M(x,y) = (4,-6)[/tex], which is the midpoint of line segment ST. From Linear Algebra we get that midpoint is the following vector sum of endpoints S and T. That is:

[tex]M(x,y) = \frac{1}{2}\cdot S(x,y) + \frac{1}{2}\cdot T(x,y)[/tex] (Eq. 1)

Now clear S in the previous expression:

[tex]S(x,y) = 2\cdot M(x,y) - T(x,y)[/tex] (Eq. 1b)

Then, the coordinates of point S are:

[tex]S(x,y) = 2\cdot (4,-6) - (0,6)[/tex]

[tex]S(x,y) = (8, -18)[/tex]

The coordinates of endpoint S are [tex]S(x,y) = (8,-18)[/tex].

Given a central angle of 252° and an arc length of 44 ft, determine the radius.

Answers

Answer:

10ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Central angle  = 252°

Arc length  = 44ft

Unknown:

Radius = ?

Solution:

To find the radius of the circle, let us use the expression;

       Arc length  = [tex]\frac{central angle}{360}[/tex] x 2πr

 Insert the parameters and solve for r,

         44  = [tex]\frac{252}{360}[/tex] x 2 x 3.142 x r

[tex]75_8 = 23_x\\7\times8^1 +5\times8^0 = 2\times x^1+3 \times x^0\\56+5 = 2x+3\\61 = 2x+3\\2x = 61-3\\2x = 58\\x = 58/2\\x = 29[/tex]

Use the number line below, where RS=9y+2, ST=2y+6, and RT= 52

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

RS=9y+2, ST=2y+6, and RT= 52

The addition postulate is true for the number line.

RS+ST = RT

Substitute

9y+2+(2y+6) = 52

9y+2y+8 = 52

11y = 52-8

11y = 44

y = 44/11

y = 4

Find RS

RS = 9y+2

RS = 9(4)+2

RS = 36+2

RS = 38

Find ST:

ST = 2y+6

ST = 2(4)+6

ST = 8+6

ST = 14

Hence y = 4, RS = 38 and ST = 14

An article presents a study of the effect of the subbase thickness on the amount of surface deflection caused by aircraft landing on an airport runway. In six applications of a 160 kN load on a runway with a subbase thickness of 864 mm, the average surface deflection was 2.53 mm with a standard deviation of 0.090 mm. Find a 90% confidence interval for the mean deflection caused by a 160 kN load. Round the answers to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval is  [tex] 2.47<\mu < 2.59 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is  n =  6

   The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 2.53 \ mm[/tex]

   The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma  =  0.090\ mm[/tex]

Given that the confidence level is 90% then the level of significance is  

        [tex]\alpha =  (100 - 90)\%[/tex]

=>     [tex]\alpha =  0.10 [/tex]

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is  

   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.645 [/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]E =1.645 *  \frac{0.090 }{\sqrt{6} }[/tex]

=>   [tex]E = 0.060 [/tex]

Generally 90% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]\= x -E <  \mu <  \=x  +E[/tex]

      [tex]2.53  -0.060 <\mu < 2.53  + 0.060[/tex]

=>   [tex] 2.47<\mu < 2.59 [/tex]

   

Lauren is running for president of the student government at UTD. The proportion of voters who favor Lauren is 0.8. A simple random sample of 100 voters is taken. What are the expected value, standard deviation, and shape of the sampling distribution of proportion (, respectively?

Answers

Answer:

 [tex]\mu_{x} = 0.8[/tex]

   [tex]\sigma  =  0.095  [/tex]  

  The shape of this sampling distribution is approximately normal

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The population proportion is [tex]p = 0.8[/tex]

  The sample size is  n = 100

   

Generally the expected value of this sampling distribution is mathematically represented as

          [tex]\mu_{x} = p = 0.8[/tex]

Generally the standard deviation of this sampling distribution is mathematically represented as

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

=>  [tex]\sigma  =  \sqrt{ \frac{0.8 (1- 0.8 )}{100 } } [/tex]    

=>  [tex]\sigma  =  0.095  [/tex]      

Generally given that the sample is  large (i.e  n  >  30 ) and the standard deviation is finite then the shape of this sampling distribution is approximately normal
