Identify the recursive formula for the sequence given by the explicit formula f(n) = 20 – 4(n − 1).

Answer:

1). x = 2.67 units

2). x = 4.80 units

3). x = 6.00 units

Step-by-step explanation:

1). By applying Pythagoras theorem,

 Hypotenuse² = [Leg(1)]² + [leg(2)]²

  12² = x² + b² [Let the base of both the triangles = b units]

  144 = x² + b² ------(1)

  Similarly, 13² = (x + 3)² + b²

  169 = x² + 6x + 9 + b²

  169 - 9 - 6x = x² + b²

  160 - 6x = x² + b² ------(2)

  From equation (1) and (2)

  144 = 160 - 6x

  6x = 160 - 144

  x = [tex]\frac{16}{6}[/tex]

  x = 2.67 units

2). By applying Pythagoras theorem,

  10² = x² + h² [Let the height of the triangle = h]

  100 = x² + h² ------(1)

  13² = (2x)² + h²

  169 = 4x² + h² -----(2)

  By substituting equation (1) from equation (2),

  169 - 100 = (4x² + h²) - (x² + h²)

  69 = 3x²

  x² = 23

  x = √23

  x = 4.795

  x ≈ 4.80 units

3). By applying Pythagoras theorem,

  9² = x² + h² [Let the height of the triangle = h units]

  81 = x² + h² ------(1)

  7² = (x - 4)² + h²

  49 = x² + 16 - 8x + h²

  49 - 16 = x² + h² - 8x

  33 + 8x = x² + h² -------(2)

  From equation (1) and (2)

  81 = 33 + 8x

  8x = 48

   x = 6.00 units

Answer:

In this question, we shall be accepting the null hypothesis H0 since the critical value is greater than the test statistic value

Step-by-step explanation:

Here in this question, we want to make a conclusion about the null hypothesis H0.

To make or give the correct conclusion about the null hypothesis in this case, we shall need to compare the absolute value of the test statistic used against the value of the critical value.

Hence, we draw a conclusion if the test statistic is larger or smaller than the critical value.

From the value given in the question, we can see that the test statistic given as 1.68 is lesser in value compared to the critical value given as 1.96.

In this kind of case, the conclusion that we shall be drawing is that we will accept the null hypothesis H0 and reject the alternative hypothesis

Specifications for a part for a DVD player state that the part should weigh between 25.2 and 26.2 ounces. The process that produces the parts has a mean of 25.7 ounces and a standard deviation of .25 ounce. The distribution of output is normal. Use Table-A

a) What percentage of parts will not meet the weight specs? (Round your "z" value and final answer to 2 decimal places.

b) Within what values will 95.44 percent of sample means of this process fall, if samples of n = 8 are taken and the process is in control (random)

Answer:

a) What percentage of parts will not meet the weight specs = 4.56%

b) values within which 95.44 percent of sample means of this process falls are;

UCL = 25.88 ounces

LCL = 25.52 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

Mean u = 25.7 ounces

Std deviation = 0.25 ounces

a)

Z-score (Upper) = (X- u) / s = (26.2 - 25.7) / 0.25 = 2

Z-score (Lower) = ( 25.2-25.7 ) / 0.25 = -2

using the T - table

For Z = 2.0

the area in the tail of the curve to the right of the mean (upper) = 0.4772

therefore;

Number of defective = 0.5000 - 0.4772 = 0.0228

These are errors on one side of normal distribution.

To get the total error, we say

Total error = 2 × 0.0228

Total error = 0.0456 ≈ 4.56% ( 2 decimal place )

b)

given that;

n = 8,

standard deviation = 0.25 ounce

Standard deviation of X = Std deviation / √n

= 0.25 /√8 = 0.088

Now for 95.44% of confidence interval, Z = 2

UCL = Mean + Z × Standard deviation of X

= 25.7 + 2 × 0.088

= 25.88 ounces

LCL = Mean - Z × Standard deviation of X

= 25.7 - 2 × 0.088

= 25.52 ounces

Answer:

46

Step-by-step explanation:

(14+x)/4 = 15

14 + x = 60

x = 46

Answer:

46

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a to d be number 1 to 4 respectively.

15 = (a + b + c + d) / 4

(a + b + c + d) = 60 ------> total sum of the 4 numbers

Since the sum of 3 numbers (assuming a to c) is 14,

Fourth number (d) = 60 - 14

= 46

There will be a total of 4 test scores including the final exam. To get a 70, the 4 tests need to equal 4 x 70 = 280 points , to be 79, they have to equal 4 x 79 = 316 points.

The 3 already done = 61 + 62 + 86 = 209 points.

Answer:

The largest possible weight of flour is 11.25  pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

To start with, we will assume that the weight of 1 sack of sugar = x pounds

We will also assume that the weight of 1 sack of flour = y pounds

So, the weight of 2 sacks of sugar = 2 * (x) = 2x

Same thing goes for the weight of 3 sacks of flour  = 3 * (y) = 3y

Supposing that the weight of (2 sacks of sugar + 3 sacks of flour) ≤ 40 pounds

= 2x + 3y ≤ 40............ we'll call that equation 1.

Also, suppose that the weight of ( 1 sack of flour) ≤ 2 sacks of sugar + 5 pounds

= y ≤ 2x + 5........................ we'll call that equation 2

Therefore, we'll solve for the values of x and y in the two equations and we will get:

2x + 3y ≤ 40

y ≤  2x + 5

Now, substitute the value of y into equation 1

2x + 3y ≤ 40 ⇒ 2x + 3(2x +5) =40

⇒ 2x + 6x + 15= 40

⇒ 8x + 15 = 40

⇒ 8x = 25

⇒ x = 25/8

⇒ x = 3.12

x cannot be more than 3.12 pounds, so we solve for y

Putting the value of x into equation 2, we'll get

⇒ 2y + 5 = 2(3.12) + 5

⇒ y = 11.25 pounds.

So, n cannot be more than 11.25 pounds

For each married women, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they dislike their mother in law, or they do not. The probability of a women disliking their mother in law is independent of any other women, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

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

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

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

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

90% of married women claim that their husband's mother is the biggest bone of contention in their marriages (sex and money are lower-rated areas of contention).

This means that [tex]p = 0.9[/tex]

Suppose that seven married women are having coffee together one morning.

This means that [tex]n = 7[/tex]

Question a:

This is P(X = 7), so:

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

[tex]P(X = 7) = C_{7,7}.(0.9)^{7}.(0.1)^{0} = 0.4783[/tex]

Thus, 0.4783 = 47.83% probability that all of them dislike their mother-in-law.

Question b:

This is P(X = 0), so:

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{7,0}.(0.9)^{0}.(0.1)^{7} = 10^{-7}[/tex]

Thus, [tex]10^{-7}[/tex] probability that none of them dislike their mother-in-law.

Question c:

This is:

[tex]P(X \geq 5) = P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7)[/tex], so:

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

[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{7,5}.(0.9)^{5}.(0.1)^{2} = 0.1240[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 6) = C_{7,6}.(0.9)^{6}.(0.1)^{1} = 0.3720[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 7) = C_{7,7}.(0.9)^{7}.(0.1)^{0} = 0.4783[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X \geq 5) = P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) = 0.1240 + 0.3720 + 0.4783 = 0.9743[/tex]

0.9743 = 97.43% probability that at least five of them dislike their mother-in-law.

Question d:

This is:

[tex]P(X \leq 4) = 1 - P(X > 4)[/tex]

Considering [tex]P(X > 4) = P(X \geq 5) = 0.9743[/tex]:

[tex]P(X \leq 4) = 1 - P(X > 4) = 1 - 0.9743 = 0.0257[/tex]

Thus, 0.0257 = 2.57% probability that no more than four of them dislike their mother-in-law.

Answer:

  C.  70°

Step-by-step explanation:

The inscribed angle marked 15° intercepts an arc that is double that measure, so the intercepted arc on the right is 2×15° = 30°.

The external angle marked 20° is half the difference of the intercepted arcs, so is ...

  20° = (1/2)(x - 30°)

  40° = x - 30° . . . . . . multiply by 2

Answer:

Percentage of home team supporters =65%

Percentage of visiting team supporters =35%

Step-by-step explanation:

Total attendees=2,000 people

Home team supporters=1,300

Visiting team supporters=700

What percentage of people attending supported the home team?

Percentage of people attending who supported the home team = home team supporters / total attendees × 100

=1,300/2,000 × 100

=0.65 × 100

=65%

Visiting team supporters = visiting team supporters / total attendees

× 100

=700/2000 × 100

=0.35 × 100

=35%

Alternatively,

Visiting team supporters = percentage of total attendees - percentage of home team supporters

=100% - 65%

=35%

Answer:

The answer to this question depends, in part, on the kinds of questions that you want to ask them. If the purpose of the survey is to try and figure out what concert patrons are thinking, then you want to try to get a good variety of ideas. In that case, you're no so interested in having a sample of individuals that's exactly representative of the population of concert goers. You only want to get a wide variety of the ideas that are out there. This is called heterogeneity sampling. That is, in this case, we'll be trying to get a sample not of people, but of ideas. In this case, we'd use brainstorming groups, panel sessions, and other group discussion methods to get all the ideas out there.

This approach is not an appropriate one if the purpose of the questions is to determine the preferences of the population of theater goers. That's because it doesn't communicate the popularity or prevalence of ideas in the sample. If this is a problem, and it likely is, it seems more appropriate to use some sort of purposive sampling method like modal interest sampling. This approach requires determining what the typical concert goer is like . If the company determines that the typical (or modal) attender is a young single person in college, then those people are sought out and interviewed. This is the sort of polling that is used in election polls where they interview "typical voters." For different genres of music and concert, a different typical concert goer could be postulated and different surveys and interview styles determined.

Probably most appropriate to this problem, though, is quota sampling. This form of purposive sampling uses demographic and other information to determine how many of different kinds of people to interview. For instance, if it is determined that only 20% of concert goers for a particular concert were women, then only 20% of the nonprobability sample should be made up of women. As long as these quotas are met, the sample can be sufficiently random.

I recommend using a combination of quota sampling and modal instance sampling. It seems to me that the kinds of people who attend concerts are idiosyncratic in some ways. Inasmuch as we can define universal characteristics of concert goers, we should seek to include only those people in the sample, but since we have demographic data as well, we should use these proportions as quotas as we select typical concert goers. For example, suppose we determine that the vast majority of people who attend operas make over $80,000/year, then we should limit our sample to people with that income level, but if we also know that 80% of opera attenders are women, we should work to insure that not more than 20% of our sample is men.

Answer:

240 candidates

Step-by-step explanation:

40% candidates failed, i. e. out of every 100 candidates 40 failed.

40 failed ----------------------------- 100 total students

1 failed --------------------------------100/40 total students, given 160 failed therefore

160 failed ----------------------------(100/40) x 160 total students

Total students = (100/40) x 160 = 400

Number of candidates passed = (total candidates) - (total candidates failed)

                                                   = 400 - 160 = 240 candidates

Hope this helps you

Answer:

x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 15 = 5(-4x - 3)

To find the solution to this equation, we have to get x by itself on one side of the equation.

First, distribute the 5 on the right side. Multiply each term by 5.

5x - 15= (5*-4x) + (5*-3)

5x-15 = -20x + (5*-3)

5x-15= -20x -15

Next, add 20x to both sides of the equation.

(5x+20x) -15 = (-20x+20x) -15

(5+20x) -15 = -15

25x -15=-15

Next, add 15 to both sides of the equation.

25x -15 +15 = -15+15

25x= -15+15

25x=0

Finally, divide both sides of the equation by 25.

25x/25=0/25

x= 0/25

x= 0

The solution to this equation is x=0

The equation of the line through (0, 1) and (c, 0) is

y - 0 = (0 - 1)/(c - 0) (x - c)   ==>   y = 1 - x/c

Let L denote the given lamina,

L = {(x, y) : 0 ≤ x ≤ c and 0 ≤ y ≤ 1 - x/c}

Then the center of mass of L is the point [tex](\bar x,\bar y)[/tex] with coordinates given by

[tex]\bar x = \dfrac{M_x}m \text{ and } \bar y = \dfrac{M_y}m[/tex]

where [tex]M_x[/tex] is the first moment of L about the x-axis, [tex]M_y[/tex] is the first moment about the y-axis, and m is the mass of L. We only care about the y-coordinate, of course.

Let ρ be the mass density of L. Then L has a mass of

[tex]\displaystyle m = \iint_L \rho \,\mathrm dA = \rho\int_0^c\int_0^{1-\frac xc}\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dx = \frac{\rho c}2[/tex]

Now we compute the first moment about the y-axis:

[tex]\displaystyle M_y = \iint_L x\rho\,\mathrm dA = \rho \int_0^c\int_0^{1-\frac xc}x\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dx = \frac{\rho c^2}6[/tex]

Then

[tex]\bar y = \dfrac{M_y}m = \dfrac{\dfrac{\rho c^2}6}{\dfrac{\rho c}2} = \dfrac c3[/tex]

but this clearly isn't independent of c ...

Maybe the x-coordinate was intended? Because we would have had

[tex]\displaystyle M_x = \iint_L y\rho\,\mathrm dA = \rho \int_0^c\int_0^{1-\frac xc}y\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dx = \frac{\rho c}6[/tex]

and we get

[tex]\bar x = \dfrac{M_x}m = \dfrac{\dfrac{\rho c}6}{\dfrac{\rho c}2} = \dfrac13[/tex]

The center of mass for a uniform triangular shape is on its centroid. The y-coordinate of the center of mass of the lamina is 1/3 (independent of c).

If the surface is plane triangle approximately and mass is uniformally distributed, then its center of mass will lie on the centroid of that triangle.

The point of intersection of a triangle's medians is its centroid (the lines joining each vertex with the midpoint of the opposite side).

If the triangle has its vertices as  [tex](x_1, y_1), (x_2, y_2) , \: (x_3, y_3)[/tex], then the coordinates of the centroid of that triangle is given by:

[tex](x,y) = \left( \dfrac{x_1 + x_2 + x_3}{3} + \dfrac{y_1 + y_2 + y_3}{3} \right)[/tex]

For this case, the  triangular lamina has vertices (0, 0), (0, 1) and (c, 0)

Assuming its mass is spread regularly, the coordinates of its center of mass would be:

[tex](x,y) = \left( \dfrac{x_1 + x_2 + x_3}{3} + \dfrac{y_1 + y_2 + y_3}{3} \right)\\\\(x,y) = \left( \dfrac{0+0+c}{3} + \dfrac{0+1+0}{3} \right) = (c/3, 1/3)[/tex]

Thus, the y-coordinate of the center of mass of the lamina is 1/3 (independent of c).

Answer:

all real numbers greater than or equal to -1

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we need to know the vertex and the direction its pointing.

First we expand,

x^2-6x+8

To find the x value of the vertex we use this formula (-b/2a).

-(-6)/2(1) = 3

Now we plug 3 in the equation to get the y value,

(3)^2 - 6(3) + 8 = 9 - 18 + 8 = -1

The vertex is (3,-1)

We know the graph points up because x^2 is positive

The vertex is the lowest point, so we now know that -1 is the starting range and if the graph is pointing up, that means all values greater than -1.

This leads to our answer all real numbers greater than or equal to -1.
