Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtracting the 2 expressions

3b² - 8 - b(b² + b - 7) ← distribute parenthesis

= 3b² - 8 - (b³  + b² - 7b) ← distribute parenthesis by - 1

= 3b² - 8 - b³ - b² + 7b ← collect like terms

= - b³ + 2b² + 7b - 8 ← substitute b = - 3 into the expression

= - (- 3)³ + 2(- 3)² + 7(- 3) - 8

= - (- 27) + 2(9) - 21 - 8

= 27 + 18 - 21 - 8

= 16

Resistors are labeled 100 Ω. In fact, the actual resistances are uniformly distributed on the interval (95, 103). Find the mean
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

E[R] = 99 Ω

\sigma_R = 2.3094 Ω

P(98<R<102) = 0.5696

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean resistance is the average of edge values of interval.

Hence,

The mean resistance, E[R] = \frac{a+b}{2}  = \frac{95+103}{2} = \frac{198}{2} = 99 Ω

To find the standard deviation of resistance, we need to find variance first.

V(R) = \frac{(b-a)^2}{12} =\frac{(103-95)^2}{12} = 5.333

Hence,

The standard deviation of resistance, \sigma_R = \sqrt{V(R)} = \sqrt5.333 = 2.3094 Ω

To calculate the probability that resistance is between 98 Ω and 102 Ω, we need to find Normal Distributions.

z_1 = \frac{102-99}{2.3094} = 1.299

z_2 = \frac{98-99}{2.3094} = -0.433

From the Z-table, P(98<R<102) = 0.9032 - 0.3336 = 0.5696

In the morning, Marco sold 12 cups of lemonade for $3. By the end of the day, he had earned $9. How many cups of lemonade did he
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Marco earned $2.25.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. If Marco sold 12 cups of lemonade for 3$, we would divide 12 cups and how much he earned from the 12 cups (3$). 12/3 = 4

2. By the end of the day, Marco earned $9. So, 4 cups = 1$. To break it down, 1$ = 100 cents and 100 cents divided by 4 is 25 cents.  Cups to Cost. ( 4 : 1 ) and/or ( 1 : 0.25 )

3. 8 cups = 2$ plus 1 cup (0.25) = 2.25.

over the past five weeks, the average daily temperature in Wellington has dropped 40 degrees Fahrenheit. Write and evaluate ab e
Westkost [7]
In five weeks, there are 35 days. So, the average drop in temperature per day is 40/35 = 8/7 degrees per week. Then in 1 week, 8/7 degrees per day * 7 days per week = 8 degrees per week.Therefore there are 8 degrees drop of temperature in 1 week.

Which of the following are possible explicit formulas for the nth term of the constant velocity sequence below? Check all that a
oksano4ka [1.4K]
We have an arithmetic progression:
Nth=an
an=a₁+(n-1)d
a₁ is the first term.
n=number of terms.
d=common difference

10,17,24,31...
a₁=10
d=a₂-a₁=17-10=7

Therefore:
Nth=an
an=a₁+(n-1)d
an=10+(n-1)7
an=10+7n-7
an=7n+3.

Therefore: the formula for the nth is, an=a+(n-1), in this case; an=7n+3,

To check:
a₁=7*1+3=10
a₂=7*2+3=17
a₃=7*3+3=24
a₄=7*4+3=31
a₅=7*5+3=38.......
