Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

k = 3 ; 2k + 2 = 2*3 + 2 = 6 + 2 = 8

k = 4;  2k + 2 = 2*4 + 2 = 8 +2 = 10

k =5; 2k + 2 = 2*5 +2 = 10+2 = 12

k=6;  2k +2 = 2*6 + 2 = 12+2 = 14

k = 7 ; 2k + 2 = 2*7 +2 = 14 +2 = 16

k = 8 ; 2k + 2 = 2*8 + 2 = 16 +2 = 18

∑ (2k + 2) = 8 + 10 + 12 + 14 + 16 + 18 = 78

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We see that if the river isn't moving at all the boat can move at 18 mph (most likely because it has an engine propelling it.)

We want to set up a proportion where our 21 miles downstream time is equal to our 15 miles upstream time so we can find the speed. A proportion is basically showing that two ratios are equal. Since our downstream distance and upstream distance can be done in the same amount of time, we will write it as a proportion.

We want to find the speed of the river. We will use r to represent the speed of the river. When going downstream, the boat will go faster, so it will have a higher mph. So, our speed going down is 18+r. When you are going upstream, it's the opposite, so it will be 18-r.

[tex]\frac{distance}{speed} =\frac{21}{18+r} = \frac{15}{18-r}[/tex]

So, how do we figure out what r is now? Well, one nice thing to know about proportions is that the product of the items diagonal from each other equals the product of the other items. Basically, that means that 15(18+r) is equal to 21(18-r). This is a very nice trick to solve proportions quickly. We see that we have made an equation and now we can solve it!

15(18+r)=21(18-r)

We use the distributive property to undo the parentheses.

270+15r=378-21r

We subtract 270 from both sides.

15r=108-21

We add 21 to both sides.

36r=108

We divide both sides by 36.

r=3

Therefore, the speed of the river is 3 mph.

You also could have noticed that 18mph to 21 mph is +3, and 18mph to 15 mph -3 in -3 mph, so the speed of the river is 3 mph. That would have been a quicker way to solve it XD!

Have a wonderful day!

Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The number 5 or greater than 4 is 5.

1 number out of 5 total parts.

= 1/5

P(5 or greater than 4) = 1/5

Answer:

[tex]\frac{1}{13}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability P(A) that an event A will occur is given by;

P(A) = [tex]\frac{number-of-possible-outcomes-of-event-A}{total-number-of-sample-space}[/tex]

From the question,

=>The event A is selecting a king the second time from a 52-card deck.

=> In the card deck, there are 4 king cards. After the first selection which was a king, the king was returned. This makes the number of king cards return back to 4. Therefore,

number-of-possible-outcomes-of-event-A = 4

=> Since there are 52 cards in total,

total-number-of-sample-space = 52

Substitute these values into equation above;

P(Selecting a king the second time) = [tex]\frac{4}{52}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{13}[/tex]

c) The excess over the amount deposited is interest:

  $1,200,000 -636,215.95 = $563,784.05

Answer:

96.41% of players on the team run the 100-meter dash in 13.36 seconds or faster

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 = 13, \sigma = 0.2[/tex]

What percentage of players on the team run the 100-meter dash in 13.36 seconds or faster

We have to find the pvalue of Z when X = 13.36.

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

[tex]Z = \frac{13.36 - 13}{0.2}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.8[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.8[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9641

96.41% of players on the team run the 100-meter dash in 13.36 seconds or faster

Answer:

y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + 7 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Parallel lines have equal slopes

line M crosses the y- axis at (0, 3) ⇒ c = 3

y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + 3 ← equation of line M

Answer:

The common difference is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

3rd term (a3) = 0

Common difference (d) =.?

From the question given, we were told that the 7th term (a7) and the 4th term (a4) are related by the following equation:

a7 – 2a4 = 1

Recall:

a7 = a + 6d

a4 = a + 3d

a3 = a + 2d

Note: 'a' is the first term, 'd' is the common difference. a3, a4 and a7 are the 3rd, 4th and 7th term respectively.

But, a3 = 0

a3 = a + 2d

0 = a + 2d

Rearrange

a = – 2d

Now:

a7 – 2a4 = 1

Substituting the value of a7 and a4, we have

a + 6d – 2(a + 3d) = 1

Sustitute the value of 'a' i.e –2d into the above equation, we have:

–2d + 6d – 2(–2d + 3d) = 1

4d –2(d) = 1

4d –2d = 1

2d = 1

Divide both side by 2

d = 1/2

Therefore, the common difference is 1/2

***Check:

d = 1/2

a = –2d = –2 x 1/2 = –1

a3 = 0

a3 = a + 2d

0 = –1 + 2(1/2)

0 = –1 + 1

0 = 0

a7 = a + 6d = –1 + 6(1/2) = –1 + 3 = 2

a4 = a + 3d = –1 + 3(1/2) = –1 + 3/2

= (–2 + 3)/2 = 1/2

a7 – 2a4 = 1

2 – 2(1/2 = 1

2 – 1 = 1

1 = 1

Correct question:

The vector matrix [ [tex] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}2\\7\end{array}\right] [/tex] is dilated by a factor of 1.5 and then reflected across the x axis. If the resulting matrix is [a/b] then a=??? and b=???

Answer:

a = 3

b = 10.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Vector matrix = [tex] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}2\\7\end{array}\right] [/tex]

Dilation factor = 1.5

Since the vector matrix is dilated by 1.5, we have:

[tex] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1.5 * 2\\1.5 * 7\end{array}\right] [/tex]

= [tex] \left[\begin{array}{ccc}3\\10.5\end{array}\right] [/tex]

Here, we are told the vector is reflected on the x axis.

Therefore,

a = 3

b = 10.5

Answer:

a = 3

b = -10.5

Answer:

Option (c).

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, I paid twice as much by not waiting for a sale and not ordering online.

Let the cost of items ordering online be x.

So, now i am paying twice of x = 2x

Now, we have find 2x is what percent of x.

[tex]Percent =\dfrac{2x}{x}\times 100=200\%[/tex]

It means, I paid 200% of what I could have online and on sale.

Therefore, the correct option is (c).

Answer:

If the value of n gests smaller then the distribution of X would be more skewed, that's a property of the binomial distribution

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem we are assumeing that the random variable X is :

[tex] X \sim Bin(n,p)[/tex]

If the value of n gests smaller then the distribution of X would be more skewed, that's a property of the binomial distribution and if we don't satisfy this two conditions:

[tex] n p>10[/tex]

[tex]n(1-p) >10[/tex]

Then we can't use the normal approximation

Answer:

The curvature is modelled by [tex]\kappa = \frac{e^{-t}}{6\sqrt{2}}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the curvature is:

[tex]\kappa = \frac{|\dot {x}\cdot \ddot {y}-\dot{y}\cdot \ddot{x}|}{[\dot{x}^{2}+\dot{y}^{2}]^{\frac{3}{2} }}[/tex]

The parametric componentes of the curve are:

[tex]x = 6\cdot e^{t} \cdot \cos t[/tex] and [tex]y = 6\cdot e^{t}\cdot \sin t[/tex]

The first and second derivative associated to each component are determined by differentiation rules:

First derivative

[tex]\dot{x} = 6\cdot e^{t}\cdot \cos t - 6\cdot e^{t}\cdot \sin t[/tex] and [tex]\dot {y} = 6\cdot e^{t}\cdot \sin t + 6\cdot e^{t} \cdot \cos t[/tex]

[tex]\dot x = 6\cdot e^{t} \cdot (\cos t - \sin t)[/tex] and [tex]\dot {y} = 6\cdot e^{t}\cdot (\sin t + \cos t)[/tex]

Second derivative

[tex]\ddot{x} = 6\cdot e^{t}\cdot (\cos t-\sin t)+6\cdot e^{t} \cdot (-\sin t -\cos t)[/tex]

[tex]\ddot x = -12\cdot e^{t}\cdot \sin t[/tex]

[tex]\ddot {y} = 6\cdot e^{t}\cdot (\sin t + \cos t) + 6\cdot e^{t}\cdot (\cos t - \sin t)[/tex]

[tex]\ddot{y} = 12\cdot e^{t}\cdot \cos t[/tex]

Now, each term is replaced in the the curvature equation:

[tex]\kappa = \frac{|6\cdot e^{t}\cdot (\cos t - \sin t)\cdot 12\cdot e^{t}\cdot \cos t-6\cdot e^{t}\cdot (\sin t + \cos t)\cdot (-12\cdot e^{t}\cdot \sin t)|}{\left\{\left[6\cdot e^{t}\cdot (\cos t - \sin t)\right]^{2}+\right[6\cdot e^{t}\cdot (\sin t + \cos t)\left]^{2}\right\}^{\frac{3}{2}}} }[/tex]

And the resulting expression is simplified by algebraic and trigonometric means:

[tex]\kappa = \frac{72\cdot e^{2\cdot t}\cdot \cos^{2}t-72\cdot e^{2\cdot t}\cdot \sin t\cdot \cos t + 72\cdot e^{2\cdot t}\cdot \sin^{2}t+72\cdot e^{2\cdot t}\cdot \sin t \cdot \cos t}{[36\cdot e^{2\cdot t}\cdot (\cos^{2}t -2\cdot \cos t \cdot \sin t +\sin^{2}t)+36\cdot e^{2\cdot t}\cdot (\sin^{2}t+2\cdot \cos t \cdot \sin t +\cos^{2} t)]^{\frac{3}{2} }}[/tex]

[tex]\kappa = \frac{72\cdot e^{2\cdot t}}{[72\cdot e^{2\cdot t}]^{\frac{3}{2} } }[/tex]

[tex]\kappa = [72\cdot e^{2\cdot t}]^{-\frac{1}{2} }[/tex]

[tex]\kappa = 72^{-\frac{1}{2} }\cdot e^{-t}[/tex]

[tex]\kappa = \frac{e^{-t}}{6\sqrt{2}}[/tex]

The curvature is modelled by [tex]\kappa = \frac{e^{-t}}{6\sqrt{2}}[/tex].

Answer:

n = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions

tan 30 = n/ 5 sqrt(3)

5 sqrt(3) tan 30 = n

5 sqrt(3) * 1/ sqrt(3) = n

5 = n

Answer:

The highest altitude that the object reaches is 576 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum altitude reached by the object can be found by using the first and second derivatives of the given function. (First and Second Derivative Tests). Let be [tex]h(t) = -16\cdot t^{2} + 128\cdot t + 320[/tex], the first and second derivatives are, respectively:

First Derivative

[tex]h'(t) = -32\cdot t +128[/tex]

Second Derivative

[tex]h''(t) = -32[/tex]

Then, the First and Second Derivative Test can be performed as follows. Let equalize the first derivative to zero and solve the resultant expression:

[tex]-32\cdot t +128 = 0[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{128}{32}\,s[/tex]

[tex]t = 4\,s[/tex] (Critical value)

The second derivative of the second-order polynomial presented above is a constant function and a negative number, which means that critical values leads to an absolute maximum, that is, the highest altitude reached by the object. Then, let is evaluate the function at the critical value:

[tex]h(4\,s) = -16\cdot (4\,s)^{2}+128\cdot (4\,s) +320[/tex]

[tex]h(4\,s) = 576\,ft[/tex]

The highest altitude that the object reaches is 576 feet.

Answer:

-18 < -x-4 < -8

Step-by-step explanation:

We start with the initial range as:

4 < x < 14

we multiplicate the inequation by -1, as:

-4 > -x > -14

if we multiply by a negative number, we need to change the symbols < to >.

Then, we sum the number -4, as:

-4-4> -x-4 > -14-4

-8 > -x-4 > -18

Finally, the range for -x-4 is:

-18 < -x-4 < -8

Answer:

The 95 percent confidence interval for the true mean metal thickness is between 0.2903 mm and 0.2907 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex].

So it is z with a pvalue of [tex]1-0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]z = 1.96[/tex]

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

[tex]M = 1.96\frac{0.000586}{\sqrt{59}} = 0.0002[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 0.2905 - 0.0002 = 0.2903 mm

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 0.2905 + 0.0002 = 0.2907 mm

The 95 percent confidence interval for the true mean metal thickness is between 0.2903 mm and 0.2907 mm
