Legend has it that the great mathematician carl friedrich gauss ​(1777dash–​1855) at a very young age was told by his teacher to

find the sum of the first 100 counting numbers. while his classmates toiled at the​ problem, carl simply wrote down a single number and handed the correct answer in to his teacher. the young carl explained that he observed that there were 50 pairs of numbers that each added up to 101. so the sum of all the numbers must be 50 times •101equals=5050. modify the procedure of gauss to find the sum. 1plus+2plus+3plus+...plus+375375

<span>S=1+2+3+...+375,375
   
Excluding the final term, there are 375,374/2 pairs of numbers that each adds up to 375375.
       
Therefore, S = (375,374/2)*375,375+375,375 =70,453,383,000</span>

Explain and discuss why engineers usually want the minimum variance unbiased estimator achieved by using the MVUE in making engi
Triss [41]

Answer:

Since the name indicates Minimum Variance Unbiased Estimator-first of all it is a parameter estimator. Secondly, it is an unbiased estimator so that the sample is carried out randomly. I.e. whenever a sample is chosen, there is no personal bias.

Then we can consider more than one sample-based unbiased estimator but sometimes they can vary in variation. But we have always intended to select an estimator that has minimal variance.

Therefore if the unbiased estimator has minimal variation between all unbiased class estimators then it is known as a good estimator.

The advantage of MVUE is that it is impartial and has a minimal variance of all unbiased estimators amongst the groups.

At times we get an estimator such as MLE which is not unbiased because the sample can be personally biased. Now let us assume an instructor needs to find the lowest marks in a physics class. Presume an instructor picks a sample and interprets the lowest possible marks.

Again the mistake could be that the instructor may choose his favorite sample learners because the sample might not be selected randomly. Therefore it is important to select an unbiased estimate with a minimum variance.

According to the Rational Root Theorem, which function has the same set of potential rational roots as the function g(x) = 3x5 –
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

We have to identify the function which has the same set of potential rational roots as the function g(x)= 3x^5-2x^4+9x^3-x^2+12.

Firstly, we will find the rational roots of the given function.

Let 'p' be the factors of 12

So, p= \pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 3, \pm 4, \pm 6

Let 'q' be the factors of 3

So, q=\pm 1, \pm 3

So, the rational roots are given by \frac{p}{q} which are as:

\pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 3, \pm 4, \pm 6, \pm \frac{1}{3}, \pm \frac{2}{3}, \pm \frac{4}{3}.

Consider the first function given in part A.

f(x) = 3x^5-2x^4-9x^3+x^2-12

Here also, Let 'p' be the factors of 12

So, p= \pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 3, \pm 4, \pm 6

Let 'q' be the factors of 3

So, q=\pm 1, \pm 3

So, the rational roots are given by \frac{p}{q} which are as:

\pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 3, \pm 4, \pm 6, \pm \frac{1}{3}, \pm \frac{2}{3}, \pm \frac{4}{3}.

Therefore, this equation has same rational roots of the given function.

Option A is the correct answer.

If m∠DEF = 117°, find the value of x
ollegr [7]

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

∠DEF = 117°

∠DEG = (12x + 1)°

∠GEF = (5x - 3)°

Find:

value of x

Computation:

∠DEF = ∠DEG + ∠GEF

117° = (12x + 1)° + (5x - 3)°

117° = 17 x - 2

x = 7
