The function f(x) = a^x + 4 will never cross the x-axis if a is positive. True or False?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

If a is negative then the shape of the graph is an upside down U, which intersects the x-axis. If a is positive it will never cross the X axis.

Answer 2

It is true that f(x)=[tex]a^{x}[/tex]+4 will never cross the x axis if a is positive.

What is function?

Function is relationship between two or more that are variables expressed in equal to form. In a function each value of x must have a corresponding value of y.

How to find x intercept?

We have been given that f(x)=[tex]a^{x} +4[/tex] and we have to find whether it will cross x axis or not.

when a line crosses the x axis the value of y becomes negative. We have to first check at y=0.

[tex]a^{x}+4[/tex]=0

[tex]a^{x}[/tex]=-4

taking log both sides,

log [tex]a^{x}[/tex]=log(-4)

x log a=0.602059991+1.3437635i

x=(0.602059991+1.3437635i)/log a

when we put the value of x in f(x) the value of f(x) cannot be negative so it cannot crosses the x axis.

Hence it is true that f(x)=[tex]a^{x}[/tex]+4 will never cross the x axis if a is positive.

An experimenter is studying the effects of temperature, pressure, and type of catalyst on yield from a certain chemical reaction. She considers 6 different temperatures, 5 different pressures, and 4 different catalysts are under consideration.

a. If any particular experimental run involves the use of a single temperature, pressure, and catalyst, how many experimental runs are possible?
b. How many experimental runs are there that involve use of the lowest temperature and two lowest pressures?
c. Suppose that five different experimental runs are to be made on the first day of experimentation. If the five are randomly selected from among all the possibilities, so that any group of five has the same probability of selection, what is the probability that a different catalyst is used on each run?

Answers

Answer:

a) 120 possible experimental runs

b) 8 possible experimental runs

c) 0

Step-by-step explanation:

a. For the experiment, there are 6 different temperatures (T), 5 different pressures (P), and 4 different catalysts (C). We can find the total number of combinations using the product rule.

N = T × P × C

N = 6 × 5 × 4 = 120

b) If we use only the lowest temperature, we have T = 1, and if we use the two lowest pressures, we have P = 2. We can find the total number of combinations using the product rule.

N = T × P × C

N = 1 × 2 × 4 = 8

c) If we perform 5 experimental runs with 4 possible catalysts, it is not possible to use a different catalyst each time. At least, 1 catalyst must be repeated twice. Then, the event "a different catalyst is used on each run" has a probability of 0.

conducted an experiment with orange, purple and blue colored lights to grow spinach. During their experiment, they conducted a chi-square analysis. Their chi-square sum was 0.85. If their sum is less than the probability value, then their data fits their experiment to reject the null. If their sum is greater than the probability value to, then their data does not fit their experiment to accept the null. What was the conclusion of the data results for their experiment

Answers

Answer:

There is not enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

Their sum is greater than the probability value ,  the data does not fit the experiment and the null is  accepted.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 colors so degrees of freedom = 3-1 = 2

The chi square value = 0.85

The p value for chi square =0.85 for 2 degrees of freedom for the left tailed test to be 0.34623 for 0.1,0.05 and 0.01 significance level.

There is not enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

The  p value for chi square =0.85 for 2 degrees of freedom for the right tailed test to be 0.65377 for 0.1,0.05 and 0.01 significance level.

There is not enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

Their sum is greater than the probability value ,  the data does not fit the experiment and the null is  accepted.

Element X is a radioactive isotope such that every 24 years, its mass decreases by
half. Given that the initial mass of a sample of Element X is 70 grams, how long
would it be until the mass of the sample reached 61 grams, to the nearest tenth of a
year?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We get to use the simple version of the half life equation:

[tex]N=N_0(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{H}[/tex] where N is the amount of radioactive element left after a specific number of years,

N0 is the initial amount of the element,

t is the number of years (our unknown), and

H is the Half life of the element. For us,

N is 61

N0 is 70,

t is unknown,

H is 24 years. Filling in:

[tex]61=70(.5)^{\frac{t}{24}[/tex]. We begin by dividing both sides by 70 to get:

[tex].8714285=(.5)^{\frac{t}{24}[/tex] and then take the natural log of both sides:

[tex]ln(.8714285=ln(.5)^{\frac{t}{24}[/tex] which allows us to bring down the exponent to the front on the right side:

[tex]ln(.8714285)=\frac{t}{24}ln(.5)[/tex]. We divide both sides by ln(.5) to get:

[tex].1985457976=\frac{t}{24}[/tex] and then multiply both sides by 24 to get:

t = 4.8 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the random variable that normally distributed.

The probability that a value is less than 36.8 = [tex]P(X<36.8)[/tex]

Assume the random variable x has a binomial distribution with the given probability of obtaining a success. Find the following. Probabilitygiven the number of trials and the probability of obtaining a success. Round your answer to four decimal places. P(x>10), n=14, p= .8

Answers

Answer:

P(x > 10) = 0.6981.

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

In this question:

[tex]n = 14, p = 0.8[/tex]

P(x>10)

[tex]P(x > 10) = P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 11) = C_{14,11}.(0.8)^{11}.(0.2)^{3} = 0.2501[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 12) = C_{14,12}.(0.8)^{12}.(0.2)^{2} = 0.2501[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 13) = C_{14,13}.(0.8)^{13}.(0.2)^{1} = 0.1539[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 14) = C_{14,14}.(0.8)^{14}.(0.2)^{0} = 0.0440[/tex]

[tex]P(x > 10) = P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14) = 0.2501 + 0.2501 + 0.1539 + 0.0440 = 0.6981[/tex]

So P(x > 10) = 0.6981.

Fill in the blanks. Suppose the probability at a light bulb factory of a bulb being defective is 0.11. If a shipment of 133 bulbs is sent out, the number of defective bulbs in the shipment should be around __________, give or take __________. Assume each bulb is independent.

Answers

Answer:

The number of defective bulbs in the shipment should be around 15, give or take 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each bulb, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is defective, or it is not. The probability of a bulb being defective is independent of any other bulb. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Suppose the probability at a light bulb factory of a bulb being defective is 0.11

This means that [tex]p = 0.11[/tex]

Shipment of 133 bulbs:

This means that [tex]n = 133[/tex]

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]E(X) = np = 133*0.11 = 14.63[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{133*0.11*0.89} = 3.61[/tex]

Rounding to the nearest integers:

The number of defective bulbs in the shipment should be around 15, give or take 4.
