Answer:
if the sequence is:
12, 13, 13, 14, 14 etc, and each term keeps growing up, the sequence obviusly diverges.
Now, if the sequence is
1/2, 1/3, 1/3, 1/4, 1/4, 1/5 , 1/5
so the terms after the first one repeat, we could group the terms with the same denominator and get:
1/2, 2/3, 2/4, 2/5..... etc.
So the terms after the first one are aₙ = 2/n.
Now, a criteria to see if a sequence converges if seing if:
[tex]\lim_{n \to \infty} a_n = 0[/tex]
and here we have;
[tex]\lim_{n \to \infty} 2/n[/tex]
that obviusly tends to zero, so we can conclude that this sequence converges.
then the limit is:
There exist a n' such that for any n > n' then IL -aₙI < ε
where L is the limit
I2/n - 0I = I2/nI < ε
then this is true if n > 2/ε = n'
A game require rolling a six sided die numbered fro 1 to 6. What is the probability of rolling a 1 or a 2?
Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
hello,
probability of 1 = 1/6
probability of 2 = 1/6
probability of 1 or 2 = 1/6+1/6 as probability of 1 and 2 = 0
so the answer is 2/6=1/3

what is the median of this set of measurements? 10cm, 15cm, 15cm, 18cm, 20cm.
Answer:
15 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Median means middle number
10,15,15,18,20
Answer:
15 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The median is the number in the middle of a data set.
First, arrange the data from least to greatest.
10 cm, 15 cm, 15 cm, 18 cm, 20 cm
Now, take one number off each end of the data set until the middle number is reached.
10 cm, 15 cm, 15 cm, 18 cm, 20 cm
15 cm, 15 cm, 18 cm
15 cm
Therefore the median of the set of measurements is 15 cm.

Heights of Women. Heights of adult women are distributed normally with a mean of 162 centimeters and a standard deviation of 8 centimeters. Use the Table B.3 Areas under the Normal Curve (page 519 of the textbook) to find the indicated quantities: a) The percentage of heights less than 150 centimeters b) The percentage of heights between 160 centimeters and 180 centimeters
Answer:
a) 6.68% of heights less than 150 centimeters
b) 58.65% of heights between 160 centimeters and 180 centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this question, we have that:
[tex]\mu = 162, \sigma = 8[/tex]
a) The percentage of heights less than 150 centimeters
We have to find the pvalue of Z when X = 150. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{150 - 162}{8}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.5[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.5[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0668
6.68% of heights less than 150 centimeters
b) The percentage of heights between 160 centimeters and 180 centimeters
We have to find the pvalue of Z when X = 180 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 160.
X = 180
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{180 - 162}{8}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.25[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.25[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9878
X = 160
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{160 - 162}{8}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.25[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.25[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.4013
0.9878 - 0.4013 = 0.5865
58.65% of heights between 160 centimeters and 180 centimeters
A home improvement contractor is painting the walls and ceiling of a rectangular room. The volume of the room is 875.00 cubic feet. The cost of wall paint is $0.08 per square foot and the cost of ceiling paint is $0.14 per square foot. Find the room dimensions that result in a minimum cost for the paint.
Answer:
The room dimensions for a minimum cost are: sides of 10 feet and height of 8.75 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a rectangular room with sides x and height y.
The volume of the room is 875 cubic feet, and can be expressed as:
[tex]V=x^2y=875[/tex]
With this equation we can define y in function of x as:
[tex]x^2y=875\\\\y=\dfrac{875}{x^2}[/tex]
The cost of wall paint is $0.08 per square foot. We have 4 walls which have an area Aw:
[tex]A_w=xy=x\cdot \dfrac{875}{x^2}=\dfrac{875}{x}[/tex]
The cost of ceiling paint is $0.14 per square foot. We have only one ceiling with an area:
[tex]A_c=x^2[/tex]
We can express the total cost of painting as:
[tex]C=0.08\cdot (4\cdot A_w)+0.14\cdot A_c\\\\C=0.08\cdot (4\cdot \dfrac{875}{x})+0.14\cdot x^2\\\\\\C=\dfrac{280}{x}+0.14x^2[/tex]
To calculate the minimum cost, we derive this function C and equal to zero:
[tex]\dfrac{dC}{dx}=280(-1)\dfrac{1}{x^2}+0.14(2x)=0\\\\\\-\dfrac{280}{x^2}+0.28x=0\\\\\\0.28x=\dfrac{280}{x^2}\\\\\\x^3=\dfrac{280}{0.28}=1000\\\\\\x=\sqrt[3]{1000} =10[/tex]
The sides of the room have to be x=10 feet.
The height can be calculated as:
[tex]y=875/x^2=875/(10^2)=875/100=8.75[/tex]
The room will have sides of 10 feet and a height of 8.75 feet.

Answer: The point estimate is 1132.5 Kilowatts
Step-by-step explanation: Regression analysis is used to find an equation that fits the data. Once this equation is found, it's used to make predictions. One of the regressions is linear regression.
To find the linear regression model:
1) Create a table with the following: ∑y; ∑x; ∑xy; ∑x²; ∑y²;
2) Use these equations to find coefficients a and b:
a = (∑y)(∑x²) - (∑x)(∑yx) / n(∑x²) - (∑x)²
b = n(∑xy) - (∑x)(∑y) / n(∑x²) - (∑x)²
3) Substitute the coefficients into the equation of form: y = a + bx
For the table above, the linear regression equation is:
y = - 2004 + 34.85x
When Temperature is 90, i.e. x = 90:
y = - 2004 + 34.85*90
y = 1132.5
The estimate Kilowatt is 1132.5.
Edith is purchasing a car whose MSRP is $22,750. She has asked for an
upgrade to a premium package for which the cost is $5050. The delivery of
this vehicle is an additional $700. Edith will trade in her own car, and the
dealer has offered her $8000. If Edith agrees to this, what will be her total
price for the vehicle?
Answer:
Dear Yates
Answer to your query is provided below
Total Price for her vehicle will be $20600
Step-by-step explanation:
Edith's trading is worth $8000. So, without the package upgrade of the vehicle delivery charge, her cost is:
$22750 - $8000 = $14750.
Now, add the package upgrade ($5050) and the delivery charge ($800).
$14750 + $5050 + $800 = $20600.
The total cost price of the vehicle after all the expenses is given by the equation A = $ 20,500
What is an Equation?Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.
It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.
Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.
Given data ,
Let the equation be represented as A
Now , the value of A is
Substituting the values in the equation , we get
The initial cost of the vehicle is = $ 22,750
Now , Edith has asked for an upgrade to a premium package for which the cost is $5050
So , the new cost of the vehicle = $ 22,750 + $ 5050 = $ 27,800
Now , the delivery charge of the vehicle = $ 700
And , the updated total price = $ 27,800 + $ 700 = $ 28,500
Now , the dealer has offered her $8000
So , the final price of the vehicle = updated total price - $ 8000
On simplifying the equation , we get
The final price of the vehicle A = $ 28,500 - $ 8,000
The final price of the vehicle A = $ 20,500
Hence , the final price of the vehicle is $ 20,500

For a specific location in a particularly rainy city, the time a new thunderstorm begins to produce rain (first drop time) is uniformly distributed throughout the day and independent of this first drop time for the surrounding days. Given that it will rain at some point both of the next two days, what is the probability that the first drop of rain will be felt between 8: 40 AM and 2: 35 PM on both days? a) 0.2479 Web) 0.0608 om c) 0.2465 d) 0.9385 e) 0.0615 f) None of the above.
Answer:
b) 0.0608
Step-by-step explanation:
As it is mentioned that the next two days i.e 24 hours, the probability of the rain is uniformly distributed
Therefore the rain probability is
[tex]= \frac{T}{24}[/tex]
where,
T = Length of the time interval
Plus, as we know that rain is independent
So let us assume the rain between the 8: 40 AM and 2: 35 PM on single day is P1 and the time interval is 5 hours 55 minutes
i.e
= 5.91666 hours long.
So, P1 should be
[tex]= \frac{5.91666}{24}[/tex]
= 0.2465
Now we assume the probability of rain on day 2 is P2
So it would be same i.e 0.2465
Since these events are independent
So, the total probability is
[tex]= 0.2465 \times 0.2465[/tex]
= 0.0608
Hence, the b option is correct

Answer:
[tex]n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.03}{1.96})^2}=1067.11[/tex]
And rounded up we have that n=1068
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we have the following info given:
[tex] ME=0.03[/tex] the margin of error desired
[tex]Conf= 0.95[/tex] the level of confidence given
The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:
[tex] ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}[/tex] (a)
the critical value for 95% of confidence is [tex] z=1.96[/tex]
We can use as estimator for the population of interest [tex]\hat p=0.5[/tex]. And on this case we have that [tex]ME =\pm 0.03[/tex] and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:
[tex]n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}[/tex] (b)
And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:
[tex]n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.03}{1.96})^2}=1067.11[/tex]
And rounded up we have that n=1068

A restaurant sees about 600 orders on Tuesday. This is down from last Tuesday by about 0.85%. How many did they see last Tuesday
Answer:
Number of orders seen on last Tuesday = 605
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of orders seen on Tuesday = 600
It is given that it is 0.85% less than last Tuesday.
Let number of sales on last Tuesday = [tex]x[/tex]
As per question statement:
Number of order on last Tuesday - 0.85% of Number of order on last Tuesday = 600
OR
i.e. if we subtract 0.85% of x from x, it must be equal to 600.
[tex]x-\dfrac{0.85}{100}x =600\\\Rightarrow x-\dfrac{0.85}{100}x =600\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{100-0.85}{100}x =600\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{99.15}{100} \times x =600\\\Rightarrow x =\dfrac{600\times 100}{99.15}\\\Rightarrow x =\dfrac{60000}{99.15}\\\Rightarrow x \approx 605[/tex]
So, there were about 605 order seen last Tuesday.

A committee of 15 members is voting on a proposal. Each member casts a yea or nay vote. On a random voting basis, what is the probability that the final vote count is unanimous?
Answer:
0.006% probability that the final vote count is unanimous.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they vote yes, or they vote no. The probability of a person voting yes or no is independent of any other person. So we use the binomial probability distribution 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.
Random voting:
So 50% of voting yes, 50% no, so [tex]p = 0.5[/tex]
15 members:
This means that [tex]n = 15[/tex]
What is the probability that the final vote count is unanimous?
Either all vote no(P(X = 0)) or all vote yes(P(X = 15)). So
[tex]p = P(X = 0) + P(X = 15)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{15,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{15} = 0.00003[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 15) = C_{15,15}.(0.5)^{15}.(0.5)^{0} = 0.00003[/tex]
So
[tex]p = P(X = 0) + P(X = 15) = 0.00003 + 0.00003 = 0.00006[/tex]
0.006% probability that the final vote count is unanimous.

Answer:
4.92% probability that the third strike comes on the seventh well drilled
Step-by-step explanation:
For each drill, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is a strike, or it is not. Each drill is independent of other drills. So we use the binomial probability distribution 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]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
20% chance of striking oil.
This means that [tex]p = 0.2[/tex]
What is that probability that the third strike comes on the seventh well drilled
2 stikers during the first 6 drills(P(X = 2) when n = 6)[/tex]
Strike during the 7th drill, with 0.2 probability. So
[tex]P = 0.2P(X = 2)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{6,2}.(0.2)^{2}.(0.8)^{4} = 0.2458[/tex]
Then
[tex]P = 0.2P(X = 2) = 0.2*0.2458 = 0.0492[/tex]
4.92% probability that the third strike comes on the seventh well drilled

The computer hardware company requires all of its chips purchased from its supplier of computer chips to meet specifications of 1.2 cm with the margins of error of plus and minus 0.1 cm. Based on the computer chip supplied last month, the mean length of a computer chip was 0.9 cm. What are the elements that the production manager should consider in determining his company's ability to produce chips that meet specifications
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The computer hardware company requires all of the chips purchased from its supplier of computer chips to meet the specification of 1.2 centimeters, with error margins of -0.1cm and +0.1cm
This means that the required length of computer chips is between 1.1cm - 1.3cm
Where 1.1cm = [1.2 - 0.1]
1.3cm = [1.2 + 0.1]
Based on the computer chips supplied last month, mean length was 0.9cm. This means that most of the chips were (in length) less than the lower boundary of 1.1cm.
The element that the production manager should consider in determining his company's ability to produce chips that meet specification is:
- The length of the chips.
The length of the chips his production team produces should be tailored to meet the length specification of his client.

3 × 2 = 6 and 3 + 2 = 5 , thus
x² + 5x + 6 = (x + 3)(x + 2)
