At start ( t = 0 nanoseconds ) :

E ( t = 0 ) = 2.645 J

E ( t = 1 ) = 6.290 J

E ( t = 1 ) : E ( t = 0 ) = 6.290 : 2.645 = 2.37

Also:

E ( t = 2 ) : E ( t = 1 ) = 14.909 : 6.290 = 2.37

E ( t = 3 ) ; E ( t = 2 ) = 35.335 : 14.909 = 2.37

E ( t ) = 2.645 * 2.37 ^ t

The answer is 4) exponential growth.

E ( t = 3 ) ; E ( t = 2 ) = 35.335 : 14.909 = 2.37

Therefore, the formula for calculating the energy of the system is:

E ( t ) = 2.645 * 2.37 ^ t

The answer is 4) exponential growth.

A series contains 18 numbers and has a sum of 4,185. The last number of the series is 275. What is the first number?

dusya [7]

The sum of arithmetic series is given by:
Sn=n/2(a1+an)
where:
n=number of terms
a1=first term
an=nth term
but
n=18, an=275, Sn=4185
plugging the values in the formula we get:
4185=18/2(a1+275)
simplifying this we get:
4185=9(a1+275)
dividing through by 9 we get:
465=a1+275
thus
a1=465-275
a1=190

Answer: first number is 190

Kristin owns a bakery called Kristin's Cakes n' Such and is considering lowering the price of her cakes. Kristin polls her custo

azamat

The total revenue that is gained from the sales of the cakes is determined by multiplying the number of cakes by the price. If we let x be the number of $1 that should be deducted from the price and y be the total revenue,
y = (25 - x)(100 + 5x)
Simplifying,
y = 2500 + 25x - 5x²
We get the value of x that will give us the maximum revenue by differentiating the equation and equating the differential to zero.
dy/dx = 0 = 25 - 10x
The value of x is 2.5.
The price of the cake should be 25 - 2.5 = 22.5.
Thus, the price of the cake that will give the maximum potential revenue is $22.5.

the time taken by a student to the university has been shown to be normally distributed with mean of 16 minutes and standard dev

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

a) 2.84% probability that he is late for his first lecture.

b) 5.112 days

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

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:

$\mu = 16, \sigma = 2.1$

a. Find the probability that he is late for his first lecture.

This is the probability that he takes more than 20 minutes to walk, which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 20. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{20 - 16}{2.1}$

$Z = 1.905$

$Z = 1.905$ has a pvalue of 0.9716

1 - 0.9716 = 0.0284

2.84% probability that he is late for his first lecture.

b. Find the number of days per year he is likely to be late for his first lecture.

Each day, 2.84% probability that he is late for his first lecture.

Out of 180

0.0284*180 = 5.112 days
