Approximately 1 in 28 people of Ashkenazi Jewish descent are Tay-Sachs carriers. In randomly sampling one man and one woman from this population, what is the probability neither is a Tay-Sachs carrier? What is the probability both are carriers?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) probability that neither is Tay-Sachs carrier is 0.9298

b) the probability that both are carriers is 0.001276

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

1 in 28 people of Ashkenazi jewish descent are Tay-Sachs carrier.

so P(Carrier) = 1/28 =

also P( Not a carrier) = 1 - 1/28 = 0.9643

Now After Sampling 1 man and 1 woman from the population;

a)

the probability neither is Tay-Sachs carrier

P( Neither is a Carrier) = 27/28 × 27/28 = 0.9298

Therefore probability that neither is Tay-Sachs carrier is 0.9298

b)

the probability both are carriers

P( Both are Carriers) = 1/28 × 1/28 = 0.001276

Therefore the probability that both are carriers is 0.001276

Determine whether the Mean Value Theorem can be applied to f on the closed interval [a, b]. If the Mean Value Theorem can be applied, find all values of c in the open interval (a, b) such that f '(c) = f (b) − f (a) b − a . If the Mean Value Theorem cannot be applied, explain why not.

f(x) = x^3 + 2x, [-1,1]

Answers

Answer:

There is a value of [tex]c[/tex] in (-1, 1), [tex]c = 0.577[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]f(x) = x^{3}+2\cdot x[/tex] for [tex]x \in[-1,1][/tex], we need to prove that [tex]f(x)[/tex] is continuous and differentiable to apply the Mean Value Theorem. Given that [tex]f(x)[/tex] is a polynomical function, its domain comprises all real numbers and therefore, function is continuous.

If [tex]f(x)[/tex] is differentiable, then [tex]f'(x)[/tex] exists for all value of [tex]x[/tex]. By definition of derivative, we obtain the following expression:

[tex]f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}[/tex]

[tex]f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{(x+h)^{3}+2\cdot (x+h)-x^{3}-2\cdot x}{h}[/tex]

[tex]f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{x^{3}+3\cdot x^{2}\cdot h+3\cdot x\cdot h^{2}+h^{3}+2\cdot x+2\cdot h-x^{3}-2\cdot x}{h}[/tex]

[tex]f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{3\cdot x^{2}\cdot h+3\cdot x\cdot h^{2}+h^{3}+2\cdot h}{h}[/tex]

[tex]f'(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} 3\cdot x^{2}+ \lim_{h \to 0} 3\cdot x \cdot h+ \lim_{h \to 0} h^{2}+ \lim_{h \to 0} 2[/tex]

[tex]f'(x) = 3\cdot x^{2}+2[/tex] (Eq. 2)

The derivative of a cubic function is quadratic function, which is also a polynomic function. Hence, the function is differentiable at the given interval.

According to the Mean Value Theorem, the following relationship is fulfilled:

[tex]f'(c) = \frac{f(1)-f(-1)}{1-(-1)}[/tex] (Eq. 3)

If we know that [tex]f(-1) = -3[/tex], [tex]f(1) = 3[/tex] and [tex]f'(c) = 3\cdot c^{2}+2[/tex], then we expand the definition as follows:

[tex]3\cdot c^{2}+2 = 3[/tex]

[tex]3\cdot c^{2} = 1[/tex]

[tex]c = \sqrt{\frac{1}{3} }[/tex]

[tex]c \approx 0.577[/tex]

There is a value of [tex]c[/tex] in the interval (-1, 1), [tex]c = 0.577[/tex].

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of each line. Identify the slopes y-intercept

Answers

Answer:

10) m: 6

    b: 5

    y= 6x +5

12)  m: -2

     b: -1

     y= -2x-1

14)  m: 1

     b: 0

     y= x

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form is the form y=mx+b

m is the slope. You can find it by finding two points that the line intersects, and counting the number of units between them.

Remember the slope is "rise over run", so, the difference in y over the difference in x.

b is the y-intercept. You can find it by looking at where the line crosses the y-axis.

Hope this helps you out!

write the point slope form of the line that passes through -8, 2 and is perpendicular to the line with a slope of negative 8​

Answers

Answer:

y = -1/8x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Line perpendicular to 8 is -1/8

If the line were to start at the origin, then y- intercept would be 0, and it would pass through the point (-8, 1) To pass through point (-8, 2), add 1 to y in the first example.

Roman watched 2/5 of a movie on Monday and 1/3 on Tuesday. What fraction of the movie does he still have left to watch?

Answers

Answer:

4/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Make both fractions have equal denominators:

2 x3      ----->   6/15

5 x3

                                            6/15 + 5/15 = 11/15 --->  15/15 - 11/15 = 4/15

Consider the line y=5x -3 Find the equation of the line that is patellar to this line and passes through the point (-8, -3) Consider the line y=5x -3

Answers

Answer:

The equation of the line that is parallel to given line and passes through the point (-8, -3) is: [tex]y = 5x+37[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation of line is:

[tex]y=5x-3[/tex]

The general form of equation of line in slope-intercept form is written as:

[tex]y = mx+b[/tex]

Here m(co-efficient of x) is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

Comparing the given equation with the general form we get

m = 5

Two parallel lines have same slope so the slope of any line parallel to given line will also be 5.

Let m1 be the slope of required line parallel to y=5x-3

Then m1=5

Putting in general form

[tex]y = m_1x+b[/tex]

[tex]y=5x+b[/tex]

To find the value of b(y-intercept) the given point has to be put in the equation from which the line passes.

The point is (-8,-3)

[tex]-3 = 5(-8)+b\\-3 = -40+b\\b = -3+40\\b = 37[/tex]

Putting the value of b and m1, we get

[tex]y = 5x+37[/tex]

Hence,

The equation of the line that is parallel to given line and passes through the point (-8, -3) is: [tex]y = 5x+37[/tex]

Harry fills up his Jeep with gasoline and notes that the odometer reading is miles. The next time he fills up his Jeep, he pays for gallons of gasoline. He notes his odometer reading is miles. How many miles per gallon did he get?

Answers

Complete question :

Harry fills up his Jeep with gasoline and notes that the odometer reading is 23,568.7 miles. The next time he fills up his Jeep, he pays for 12.6 gallons of gasoline. He notes his odometer reading is 23,706.3 miles. How many miles per gallon did he get?

Answer:

10.9 miles per gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Odometer reading when filled up with gasoline = 23,568.7 miles

Odometer reading with 12.6 gallons of gasoline = 23,706.3 miles

Miles per gallon gotten :

(Current Odometer reading - reading when filled up) / gallon of gasoline

(23706.3 - 23568.7) / 12.6

= 10.920634

= 10.9 miles per gallon
