Answer: 5, 72

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following questions :.

The value of 3 minus (negative 2)

3 - (-2) = 3 + 2 = 5

A number line going from Negative 5 to positive 5, what is the product of 6(negative 12)

6 × (-12) = - 72

Organisms A and B start out with the same population size. Organism A's population doubles every day. After 5 days, the populati
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The number of times organism B's population is larger than organism A's population after 8 days is 32 times

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of organism A doubles every day, geometrically as follows

a, a·r, a·r²

Where;

r = 2

The population after 5 days, is therefore;

Pₐ₅ = = 32·a

The virus cuts the population in half for three days as follows;

The first of ta·2⁵ he three days = 32/2 = 16·a

The second of the three days = 16/2 = 8·a

After the third day, Pₐ = 8/2 = 8·a

The population growth of organism B is the same as the initial growth of organism A, therefore, the population, P₈ of organism B after 8 days is given as follows;

P₈ =  a·2⁸ = 256·a

Therefore, the number of times organism B's population is larger than organism A's population after 8 days is P₈/Pₐ = 256·a/8·a = 32 times

Which gives, the number of times organism B's population is larger than organism A's population after 8 days is 32 times.

Chen is baking muffins and banana bread for a brunch buffet. He needs 3 and one-fifth cups of flour to make the muffins and 3 an
Tju [1.3M]
Answer:

7 cups of flour

reason:

to find how much flour is needed, first you need to combine the two fractions.
to add the fractions, you first have to find a common denominator, which in this case is 15
multiply 1/5 by 3 to get 3/15, and 2/3 by 5 to get 10/15. combined, this is 13/15
since the answer is looking for the best estimate, you take the overall amount of flour, which would be 6 13/15, which is closer to 7 cups than 6

(I may be wrong this is just how I did it)

In choice situations of this type, subjects often exhibit the "center stage effect," which is a tendency to choose the item in t
victus00 [196]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

a

The probability that he or she would choose the pair of socks in the center position is   p =\frac{1}{5}

The correct answer choice is

X has a binomial distribution with parameters n=100 and p=1/5  

b

The mean is  \mu = 20

The standard deviation is \sigma=4

c

The probability, P =0.0002

d

The correct answer is

The experiment supports the center stage effect. If participants were truly picking the socks at random, it would be highly unlikely for 34 or more to choose the center pair.

Using the R the probability Pe = 0.0003

The probabilities P \approx Pe

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the person selects his or her desired pair of socks at random , then the probability that the person would choose the pair of socks in the center position from all the five identical pair is mathematically evaluated as

                  p =\frac{1}{5}

                    =0.2

The mean of this distribution is mathematical represented as

           \mu = np

substituting the value

         \mu = 100 * 0.2

             \mu = 20

The standard deviation is mathematically represented as

         \sigma = \sqrt{np (1-p)}

substituting the value

           = \sqrt{100 * 0,2 (1-0.2)}

           \sigma=4

Applying normal approximation the probability that 34 or more subjects would choose the item in the center if each subject were selecting his or her preferred pair of socks at random would be mathematically represented as

               P=P(X \ge 34 )

By standardizing the normal approximation we have that

              P(X \ge 34) \approx P(Z \ge z)

Now z is mathematically evaluated as

               z = \frac{x-\mu}{\sigma }

Substituting values

             z = \frac{34-20}{4}

               =3.5

So  using the z table the P(Z \ge 3.5) is  0.0002

The probability P and Pe that 34 or more subject would choose the center pair is very small  So

The correct answer is

The experiment supports the center stage effect. If participants were truly picking the socks at random, it would be highly unlikely for 34 or more to choose the center pair.

Find the value of $x$ that maximizes $$f(x) = \log (-20x + 12\sqrt{x}).$$ If there is no maximum value, write "NONE".
kakasveta [241]
The function is written as:
f(x) = log(-20x + 12√x)
To find the maximum value, differentiate the equation in terms of x, then equate it to zero. The solution is as follows.

The formula for differentiation would be:
d(log u)/dx = du/u ln(10)
Thus,
d/dx = (-20 + 6/√x)/(-20x + 12√x)(ln 10) = 0
-20 + 6/√x = 0
6/√x = 20
x = (6/20)² = 9/100

Thus,
f(x) =  log(-20(9/100)+ 12√(9/100)) = 0.2553

<em>The maximum value of the function is 0.2553.</em>
