Each inch on a map of Roswell, New Mexico represents $0.51\text{ mile}$. If two buildings in Roswell are $2.3$ miles apart in re

al life, then to the nearest tenth of an inch, how far apart are they on the map?
Enter your answer as a decimal rounded to the nearest tenth, without units.
Thanks so Much!

We are given wit the scaling factor of
1 inch : 0.51 mile

The distance between the two buildings in real life is 2.3 miles. On the map they are
2.3 miles (1 inch / 0.51 mile) = 4.5
inches apart<span />

Given that lim x→a f(x) = 0 lim x→a g(x) = 0 lim x→a h(x) = 1 lim x→a p(x) = [infinity] lim x→a q(x) = [infinity], evaluate the
ANEK [815]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to remind one of the properties of the limits:

Lim x→a  f(x)*g(x) = [Lim x→a f(x)]*[Lim x→a g(x)]

Hence, we evaluate the products of the limits

(a) Lim x→a  f(x)*g(x) = 0*0 = 0

(b) Lim x→a  f(x)*p(x) = 0*[infinity] = INDETERMINATE

(c) Lim x→a  h(x)*p(x) = 1*[infinity] = infinity

(d) Lim x→a  p(x)*q(x) = [infinity]*[infinity] = INDETERMINATE

A jar contains 4 white and 4 black marbles. We randomly choose 4 marbles. If 2 of them are white and 2 are black, we stop. If no
Airida [17]

Answer:

<em>Find the probability of success in a single trial and then think about the nature of the problem (when do we stop).  </em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Observe that in the single trial, we have (8 4) possibilities of choosing our set of balls. If we have chosen two white balls and two black balls, the probability of doing that is simply  

p=(4 2)*(4 2)/(8 4)

This is well know Hyper geometric distribution. Now, define random variable X that marks the number of trials that have been needed to obtain the right combination (two white and two black balls). From the nature of the problem, observe that X has Geometric distribution with parameter p that has been calculated above. Hence  

P(X = n) = (1— p)^n-1 *( p )

<em>Find the probability of success in a single trial and then think about the nature of the problem (when do we stop).  </em>

The shelf should sell for $235.20.

Marking the price up by 60% means taking 160% of the cost:
160% = 160/100 = 1.6; 1.6(147) = 235.20

Are the following statements true or false? 1. If F⃗ is a vector field in 3-dimensional space, and W is a solid region with boun
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) True. This is because the divergence of F is 1, thus, F is a linear function. Orientation is given outward to the surface. Linear function double integrated over a surface with outward orientation gives volume enclosed by the surface.

2) True. This is primarily what the Divergence theorem is.

3) False. If F was 3/pi instead of div(F), then the statement would have been true.

4) False. The gradient of divergence can be anything. The curl of divergence of a vector function is 0, not the gradient o divergence.

5) False. While finding Divergence, derivatives are taken for different variables. Since the derivatives of constants are 0, therefore, both the vector functions F and G can be different constant parts of there components even if their divergences are equal.
