Answer:

Option C) 0 \leq x \leq 9

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

The number of users of a cell tower  increased by a factor of 1.5 every year from 2010 to 2019.

f(x) = 5000(1.5)^x

where f(x) is the number of cell tower users and x is the years from the year 2010.

We have to find the domain for the given function.

Domain of a function is defined as the possible values of x the function can take, so that the function is defined.

Since this function gives the number of cell users from 2010 to 2019, thus, it is applicable from year 2010 to 2019.

x takes the value of years after 2010.

Thus  for year 2010, x = 0 and for year 2019, x = 9

Thus, the domain of the given function is given by:

0 \leq x \leq 9

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

From the statement, we are given a function that shows the number of cell tower users f(x) after x years, from the year 2010 to 2019, so, to solve the problem, we need to remember that the domain is equal to all the values that the variable (x for this case) could take making the function itself exist.

So, the given function is a function of years, and we know that "x" represents the years from 2010 (starting value), to 2019 (ending value) meaning that the domain is located between those two values.

Hence, the correct option is:

B. 0 ≤ x ≤ 5,000

A quadratic pattern has a second term equal to 1,a third term equal to -16 and a fifth term equal to -14
chubhunter [2.5K]
Given are several terms in a quadratic pattern:

a1 = ?
a2 = 1
a3 = -16
a4 = ?
a5 = -14

let:

x       y
1       ?
2       1
3      -16
4       ?
5       -14

considering the 2nd term and 3rd term, we can determine a quadratic function:

y = -17x + 35

therefore,

a1 = 18
a4 = -33

Explain how knowing 1+7 helps you find the sum for 7+1
kakasveta [241]

We can use the concept of commutative property of addition here. We know that the addition follow the commutative property.

The commutative property of addition is given by

a+b=b+a

It means, if we change the order, it will not affect the result.

Therefore, using above mentioned property, we can see that

1+7 = 7+1

Hence, if we know the value of 1+7, then we can easily find the value of 7+1 because both are same.

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Solution:

Keep in mind ,

Equation of line joining two points (a,b) and (p,q) is given by :

     \frac{q-b}{p-a}=\frac{y-b}{x-a}

Equation of line P which is obtained by  joining  (- 8,15) and (6, - 12) is given by:  

\frac{y-15}{x+8}=\frac{-12-15}{6+8}\\\\ 14(y-15)=-27(x+8)\\\\ 14 y -210= -27 x - 216\\\\ 27 x+14 y+6=0

Equation of line Q which is obtained by  joining  (4,16) and (-9, 10) is given by:  

\frac{y-16}{x-4}=\frac{16-10}{4+9}\\\\ 13(y-16)=6(x-4)\\\\ 13 y -208= 6 x - 24\\\\ 6 x-13 y+184=0

Equation of line P and Q are

27 x+14 y+6=0-------(1)× 2

6 x-13 y+184=0-------(2)× 9

54 x + 2 8 y+12=0---(1)

54 x -117 y +1656=0----(2)

(1) - (2)

145 y= 1644

y=11.33,

27 x+14 y+6=0-------(1)×13

6 x-13 y+184=0-------(1)×14

351 x + 182 y + 78=0-----(1)

84 x - 182 y +2576=0----(2)

(1) + (2)

435 x + 2654=0

x = - 6.11

So, solution set is (-6.11, 11.33)

Option (C) is true. (−2, 4), because this point makes both the equations incorrect.

1. In a batch of 10 items, we wish to extract a sample of 3 without replacement. How many
svetlana [45]

Answer:

1) 120

2) E (Z) = 12 and Variance of Z = 90

a) 5 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We can find this by suing combinations.

Here n= 10 and r= 3 so n C r

= 10 C 3= 120

2. E(X) = 8 and E(Y) = 3

Z = 2X - 3Y +5

E(Z ) = 2 E (X) - 3(E)(Y) +5   ( applying property for mean)

       = 2(8) - 3(3)+ 5 = 16+5-9= 21-9= 12

V(X) = 9 and V(Y) = 6.

V(Z) = E(Z )²-  V(X) *V(Y)   (applying property for Variance for two variables )

        = 144- 54= 90

3. 55 liters contain adulterated milk in 7: 4.

So it contains 4/ 11*55= 20 liters of water

But we want to make it a ratio of 7:6

the water will be 6/13 *55= 25.38 when rounded gives 25 liters of water

So 25- 20 = 5 liters must be added to make it a ratio of 7:6

According to a Yale program on climate change communication survey, 71% of Americans think global warming is happening.† (a) For
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

a) 0.2741 = 27.41% probability that at least 13 believe global warming is occurring

b) 0.7611 = 76.11% probability that at least 110 believe global warming is occurring

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

E(X) = np

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using 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.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that \mu = E(X), \sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}.

In this problem, we have that:

p = 0.71

(a) For a sample of 16 Americans, what is the probability that at least 13 believe global warming is occurring?

Here n = 16, we want P(X \geq 13). So

P(X \geq 13) = P(X = 13) + P(X = 14) + P(X = 15) + P(X = 16)

In which

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 13) = C_{16,13}.(0.71)^{13}.(0.29)^{3} = 0.1591

P(X = 14) = C_{16,14}.(0.71)^{14}.(0.29)^{2} = 0.0835

P(X = 15) = C_{16,15}.(0.71)^{15}.(0.29)^{1} = 0.0273

P(X = 16) = C_{16,16}.(0.71)^{16}.(0.29)^{0} = 0.0042

P(X \geq 13) = P(X = 13) + P(X = 14) + P(X = 15) + P(X = 16) = 0.1591 + 0.0835 + 0.0273 + 0.0042 = 0.2741

0.2741 = 27.41% probability that at least 13 believe global warming is occurring

(b) For a sample of 160 Americans, what is the probability that at least 110 believe global warming is occurring?

Now n = 160. So

\mu = E(X) = np = 160*0.71 = 113.6

\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{160*0.71*0.29} = 5.74

Using continuity correction, this is P(X \geq 110 - 0.5) = P(X \geq 109.5), which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 109.5. So

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

Z = \frac{109.5 - 113.6}{5.74}

Z = -0.71

Z = -0.71 has a pvalue of 0.2389

1 - 0.2389 = 0.7611

0.7611 = 76.11% probability that at least 110 believe global warming is occurring
