Suppose you were offered this choice:
ONE supersized cone for $8 or FOUR regular-sized cones for $5.
The radius of the large cone is 5 inches, and its height is 12 inches.
Each of the smaller cones has a radius of 2.5 inches and a height of 6 inches.
Does the large cone hold more ice cream, or do the four smaller cones combined?
Which is the better deal? Provide mathematical justification for your answer.

Answers

Answer 1

The large cone can hold more ice cream than the four smaller cones combined.

The large cone is a better deal.

What is a cone?

A cone is a three-dimensional structure with a round base and a point at the top, known as the vertex.

A cone is a three-dimensional solid geometric object with a point at the top and a circular base. A cone has a vertex and one face. For a cone, there are no edges.

The radius, height, and slant height of the cone are its three constituent parts.

For the supersized cone,

Volume = π(5)(5)(12)/3 = 314.29 cubic inches

For a small cone,

Volume= π(2.5)(2.5)(6)/3 = 39.29 cubic inches

Combined volume of 4 such cones = 4*39.29 = 157.16 cubic inches

As the volume of the larger cone is more, thus it holds more ice cream. Also it is a better deal, as it costs less than 4 small cones.

Answer:

B.) (1, -5)

Given, equation:

[tex]\sf \dfrac{(x-1)^2}{25} -\dfrac{(y+5)^2}{49} =1[/tex]

Comparing it with standard formula of hyperbola:

[tex]\sf \dfrac{(x-h)^2}{a^2} -\dfrac{(y-k)^2}{b^2} =1[/tex]

where (h, k) is center

The given equation in standard form:

[tex]\sf \dfrac{(x-1)^2}{5^2} -\dfrac{(y-(-5))^2}{7^2} =1[/tex]

Determined:

(h, k) = (1, -5)

a = 5, b = 7

So, here (1, -5) is the center of the given hyperbola.

A random variable X has a gamma density function with parameters α= 8 and β = 2.
Without making any assumptions, derive the moment generating function of X and use to
determine the mean and variance of X.

Answers

I know you said "without making any assumptions," but this one is pretty important. Assuming you mean [tex]\alpha,\beta[/tex] are shape/rate parameters (as opposed to shape/scale), the PDF of [tex]X[/tex] is

[tex]f_X(x) = \dfrac{\beta^\alpha}{\Gamma(\alpha)} x^{\alpha - 1} e^{-\beta x} = \dfrac{2^8}{\Gamma(8)} x^7 e^{-2x}[/tex]

if [tex]x>0[/tex], and 0 otherwise.

The MGF of [tex]X[/tex] is given by

[tex]\displaystyle M_X(t) = \Bbb E\left[e^{tX}\right] = \int_{-\infty}^\infty e^{tx} f_X(x) \, dx = \frac{2^8}{\Gamma(8)} \int_0^\infty x^7 e^{(t-2) x} \, dx[/tex]

Note that the integral converges only when [tex]t<2[/tex].

Define

[tex]I_n = \displaystyle \int_0^\infty x^n e^{(t-2)x} \, dx[/tex]

Integrate by parts, with

[tex]u = x^n \implies du = nx^{n-1} \, dx[/tex]

[tex]dv = e^{(t-2)x} \, dx \implies v = \dfrac1{t-2} e^{(t-2)x}[/tex]

so that

[tex]\displaystyle I_n = uv\bigg|_{x=0}^{x\to\infty} - \int_0^\infty v\,du = -\frac n{t-2} \int_0^\infty x^{n-1} e^{(t-2)x} \, dx = -\frac n{t-2} I_{n-1}[/tex]

Note that

[tex]I_0 = \displaystyle \int_0^\infty e^{(t-2)}x \, dx = \frac1{t-2} e^{(t-2)x} \bigg|_{x=0}^{x\to\infty} = -\frac1{t-2}[/tex]

By substitution, we have

[tex]I_n = -\dfrac n{t-2} I_{n-1} = (-1)^2 \dfrac{n(n-1)}{(t-2)^2} I_{n-2} = (-1)^3 \dfrac{n(n-1)(n-2)}{(t-2)^3} I_{n-3}[/tex]

and so on, down to

[tex]I_n = (-1)^n \dfrac{n!}{(t-2)^n} I_0 = (-1)^{n+1} \dfrac{n!}{(t-2)^{n+1}}[/tex]

The integral of interest then evaluates to

[tex]\displaystyle I_7 = \int_0^\infty x^7 e^{(t-2) x} \, dx = (-1)^8 \frac{7!}{(t-2)^8} = \dfrac{\Gamma(8)}{(t-2)^8}[/tex]

so the MGF is

[tex]\displaystyle M_X(t) = \frac{2^8}{\Gamma(8)} I_7 = \dfrac{2^8}{(t-2)^8} = \left(\dfrac2{t-2}\right)^8 = \boxed{\dfrac1{\left(1-\frac t2\right)^8}}[/tex]

The first moment/expectation is given by the first derivative of [tex]M_X(t)[/tex] at [tex]t=0[/tex].

[tex]\Bbb E[X] = M_x'(0) = \dfrac{8\times\frac12}{\left(1-\frac t2\right)^9}\bigg|_{t=0} = \boxed{4}[/tex]

Variance is defined by

[tex]\Bbb V[X] = \Bbb E\left[(X - \Bbb E[X])^2\right] = \Bbb E[X^2] - \Bbb E[X]^2[/tex]

The second moment is given by the second derivative of the MGF at [tex]t=0[/tex].

[tex]\Bbb E[X^2] = M_x''(0) = \dfrac{8\times9\times\frac1{2^2}}{\left(1-\frac t2\right)^{10}} = 18[/tex]

Then the variance is

[tex]\Bbb V[X] = 18 - 4^2 = \boxed{2}[/tex]

Note that the power series expansion of the MGF is rather easy to find. Its Maclaurin series is

[tex]M_X(t) = \displaystyle \sum_{k=0}^\infty \dfrac{M_X^{(k)}(0)}{k!} t^k[/tex]

where [tex]M_X^{(k)}(0)[/tex] is the [tex]k[/tex]-derivative of the MGF evaluated at [tex]t=0[/tex]. This is also the [tex]k[/tex]-th moment of [tex]X[/tex].

Recall that for [tex]|t|<1[/tex],

[tex]\displaystyle \frac1{1-t} = \sum_{k=0}^\infty t^k[/tex]

By differentiating both sides 7 times, we get

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{7!}{(1-t)^8} = \sum_{k=0}^\infty (k+1)(k+2)\cdots(k+7) t^k \implies \displaystyle \frac1{\left(1-\frac t2\right)^8} = \sum_{k=0}^\infty \frac{(k+7)!}{k!\,7!\,2^k} t^k[/tex]

Then the [tex]k[/tex]-th moment of [tex]X[/tex] is

[tex]M_X^{(k)}(0) = \dfrac{(k+7)!}{7!\,2^k}[/tex]

and we obtain the same results as before,

[tex]\Bbb E[X] = \dfrac{(k+7)!}{7!\,2^k}\bigg|_{k=1} = 4[/tex]

[tex]\Bbb E[X^2] = \dfrac{(k+7)!}{7!\,2^k}\bigg|_{k=2} = 18[/tex]

and the same variance follows.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Since both equations are equal to y, we can set the right-hand side of the equations equal to each other.

[tex]y = 2x + 3\\y = x^2 + 3x + 3[/tex][tex]y = y[/tex][tex]2x + 3 = x^2 + 3x + 3[/tex]

Solve for x[tex]2x + 3 = x^2 + 3x + 3[/tex][tex]0 = x^2 + x[/tex][tex]0 = x(x + 1)[/tex][tex]x = 0, x =-1[/tex]

X can either be 0 or -1. Remember, a solution to a system is not complete without a y-value. Plug in 0 and -1 for x in the first equation, and find the corresponding y-values.

[tex]y = 2(0) + 3\\y = 3[/tex]

And

[tex]y = 2(-1) + 3\\y = -2 + 3\\y = 1[/tex]

So the solutions to the system are (0,3) and (-1,1)

at the movie theatre, child admission is $6.10 and adult admission is $9.70. On Monday , 146 tickets were sold for a total sales of $1074.20.HOw many adult tickets were sold that day ?

Answers

Answer:

51

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c be the number of child tickets sold.

Let a be the number of adult tickets sold.

From the information given from the question, we can deduce:

6.10c + 9.70a = 1074.20 - Equation 1

c + a = 146 - Equation 2

From here, we can use the substitution method in solving simultaneous equations to find a and c. We will use Equation 2 as the base.

c = 146 - a - Equation 2A

We will then substitute equation 2A into Equation 1 to find a.

6.10(146-a) + 9.70a = 1074.20

890.6 - 6.10a + 9.70a = 1074.20

890.6 + 3.6a = 1074.20

3.6a = 1074.20 - 890.6

3.6a = 183.6

a = [tex]\frac{183.6}{3.6}[/tex]

a = 51

Therefore we know that 51  adult tickets were sold that day.

After that you can substitute a into equation 2 to find c.

Which of the following functions are discontinuous?

Answers

Answer:

D.  I, II, and III

Step-by-step explanation:

A discontinuous function is a function which is not continuous.  

If f(x) is not continuous at x = a, then f(x) is said to be discontinuous at this point.

To prove whether a function is discontinuous, find where it is undefined.

A rational function is undefined when the denominator is equal to zero.

Therefore, to find the values that make a rational function undefined, set the denominator to zero and solve.

Function I

Denominator:  x - 2

Set to zero:  x - 2 = 0

Solve:  x = 2

Therefore, this function is undefined when x = 2 and so the function is discontinuous.

Function II

Denominator:  4x²

Set to zero:  4x² = 0

Solve:  x = 0

Therefore, this function is undefined when x = 0 and so the function is discontinuous.

Function III

Denominator:  x² + 3x + 2

Set to zero:  x² + 3x + 2 = 0

Solve:  

⇒ x² + 3x + 2 = 0

⇒ x² + x + 2x + 2 = 0

⇒ x(x + 1) + 2(x + 1) = 0

⇒ (x + 2)(x + 1) = 0

⇒ x = -2, x = -1

Therefore, this function is undefined when x = -2 and x = -1, and so the function is discontinuous.

Therefore, all three given functions are discontinuous.
