There is a 50% chance of rain here and a 25% chance of rain on Mars. Therefore, there is a 75%
chance that it will rain here or on Mars. Explain why this is a false statement.

Answers

Answer 1

There is a 75% chance that it will rain here or on Mars is false because there is a 25% chance that it will rain here and not on Mars.  

What is probability?

It is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes, in other words, the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

We have:

There is a 50% chance of rain here and a 25% chance of rain on Mars. Therefore, there is a 75% chance that it will rain here or on Mars.

The probability that it will rain here:

P(rain here) = 50%

P(rain on mars) 50%

P(not rain here) = 100 - 50 = 50%

P(not rain on mars) = 100 - 50 = 50%

P(rain here and not on mars) = 0.5×0.5 = 0.25 or 25%

Thus, there is a 75% chance that it will rain here or on Mars is false because there is a 25% chance that it will rain here and not on Mars.

Find and prove an inequality relating 100n and n^{3} .

Answers

An inequality relating 100n and is 100n ≥ n³ for n ≤ 10 and 100n ≤ n³ for n ≥ 10.

What is inequality?

An inequality is comparison of  two values, showing if one is less than, greater than, or simply not equal to another value.

Since 100n andfor n = 1, 2, 3, . . . 9, 10, 11 are 100, 200, 300, . . . 900, 1000, 1100 and 1, 8, 27, . . . 729, 1000, 1331 respectively.

Therefore, an inequality relating 100n and n³ will be 100n ≥ n³ for n ≤ 10 and 100n ≤ n³ for n ≥ 10.

Induction hypothesis:

Suppose 100n ≤ k³ for some positive integer k ≥ 10.

We need to show that 100( k + 1 ) ≤ ( k + 1 )³ = k³ + 3k² +3k + 1.

Note 100( k + 1 ) = 100k + 100 ≤ k³ + 100

                                                 ≤ k³ + 3k²    (∵ k ≥ 10 )

                                                 ≤ k³ + 3k² + 3k

                                                 ≤ k³ + 3k²+3k + 1

So 100( k + 1 ) ≤ ( k + 1 )³, which is true.

Hence by the principle of mathematical induction, 100n ≤ k³ for every integer  k ≥ 10.

The amount invested at each rate

Investment at 7% = $25000

Investment at 2%  = $11,000

What is investment?

Investment definition is an asset acquired or invested in to build wealth and save money from the hard earned income or appreciation.

Given:

Larry Mitchell invested = $36,000 at 7% annual simple interest

the rest at 2% annual simple interest.

Total investment = 36000

let the investment at 7% is x

then, invested at 2% = 36000 - x

Total interest earned = $1,970

Simple interest = principal * rate * time

Investment at 4%:

(x * 0.07) + [(36000 - x) * 0.02] = 1970

0.07x + 720 - 0.02x= 1970

0.05x = 1970-720

0.05x = 1250

x= 25000

Find the area of the region bounded by the line y =3x -6 and line y=-2x+8 and
a) the x-axis. b) the y-axis. c) the line y=6. d) the line x=5.

Answers

The area of the region bounded by the line y =3x -6 and line y=-2x+8 is  12/5 units

How to find the area?

y = 3x - 6

y = -2x + 8

Set these two equations equal to each other.

3x - 6 = -2x + 8

Add 2x to both sides of the equation.

5x - 6 = 8

Add 6 to both sides of the equation.

5x = 14

Divide both sides of the equation by 5.

x = 14/5  

Find the y-value where these points intersect by plugging this x-value back into either equation.

y = 3(14/5) - 6

Multiply and simplify.

y = 42/5 - 6

Multiply 6 by (5/5) to get common denominators.

y = 42/5 - 30/5  

Subtract and simplify.

y = 12/5

These two lines intersect at the point 12/5. This is the height of the triangle formed by these two lines and the x-axis.

Now let's find the roots of these equations (where they touch the x-axis) so we can determine the base of the triangle.

Set both equations equal to 0.

(I) 0 = 3x - 6  

Add 6 both sides of the equation.

6 = 3x

Divide both sides of the equation by 3.

x = 2  

Set the second equation equal to 0.

(II) 0 = -2x + 8

2x = 8

x = 4

The base of the triangle is from (2,0) to (4,0), making it a length of 2 units.

The height of the triangle is 12/5 units.

A = 1/2bh

Substitute 2 for b and 14/5 for h.

A = (1/2) · (2) · (12/5)

A = 12/5

3. P(x) = -0.1(x³ - 4x² - 3x + 18)

What is the Factor Theorem?

The Factor Theorem states that a polynomial function with roots [tex]x_1, x_2, \codts, x_n[/tex] is given by:

[tex]f(x) = a(x - x_1)(x - x_2) \cdots (x - x_n)[/tex]

In which a is the leading coefficient.

Item a:

The parameters are:

[tex]a = 1, x_1 = x_2 = 1, x_3 = x_4 = 0, x_5 = -4[/tex]

Hence the equation is:

P(x) = (x - 1)²x²(x + 4)

P(x) = (x² - 2x + 1)(x + 4)x²

P(x) = (x³ + 2x² - 7x + 1)x²

[tex]P(x) = x^5 + 2x^4 - 7x^3 + x^2[/tex]

Item b:

The roots are:

[tex]x_1 = x_2 = 4, x_3 = 0, x_4 = -4[/tex]

Hence:

P(x) = a(x - 4)²x(x + 4)

P(x) = a(x² - 16)x(x - 4)

P(x) = a(x³ - 16x)(x - 4)

[tex]P(x) = a(x^4 - 4x^3 - 16x^2 + 64x)[/tex]

It passes through the point x = 5, P(x) = 36, hence:

45a = 36.

a = 4/5

a = 0.8

Hence:

[tex]P(x) = 0.8(x^4 - 4x^3 - 16x^2 + 64x)[/tex]

Item 3:

The roots are:

[tex]x_1 = x_2 = 3, x_3 = -2[/tex]

Hence:

P(x) = a(x - 3)²(x + 2)

P(x) = a(x² - 6x + 9)(x + 2)

P(x) = a(x³ - 4x² - 3x + 18)

For the y-intercept, x = 0, y = -1.8, hence:

18a = -1.8 -> a = -0.1

The range, standard deviation, and variance of the numbers of medals won by these countries are 28, 8.845, and 78.2353, respectively.

What is a Range?

A range is given to a parameter to allow maximum leverage to the parameter. for example, if a vendor wants a rod of diameter 20 cm, then he may give a range of ±1 cm., which means he will accept the rod of 19(20-1) cm to 21(20+1) cm.

The range  of the numbers of medals won by these countries is,

Range =  Max - Min = 29 - 1 = 28

To find the standard deviation we need to know the following details,

Sum of the number of medals = ∑x = 234Sum of the square of the number of medals = ∑x² = 4372Number of observations = n = 18

Now, the standard deviation of medals won by these countries is,

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{\sum x^2 - \frac1n (\sum x)^2}{n-1}}\\\\\sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{\4372 - \frac{234^2}{18}}{18-1}}\\\\\sigma = 8.845[/tex]

The variance of the numbers of medals won by these countries is,

v = σ²

v = 78.2353

Find the parametric equation of the line that passes through P(1, 0, −3) and is parallel to the line with parametric equations x = −1 + 2t , y = 2−t, and z = 3+3t.

Which is the equation for y?

Answers

Answer:

y = -t

Step-by-step explanation:

Parametric Equation = Type of equation that employs an independent variable called a parameter (often denoted by t) and in which dependent variables are defined as continuous functions of the parameter and are not dependent on another existing variable.

parametric equation of line passing through a point (a₁, b₁, c₁)

   and parallel to a vector <a, b, c> is given by :

   x =a₁ + at ,   y = b₁ + bt   ,   z = c₁ + ct

now according to question:

given -

point, P(1, 0, -3)

line,   x = −1 + 2t , y = 2−t, and z = 3+3t.

so from the line the vector is=  <2, -1, 3>

now using above formula,

equation of line is =   x = 1 + 2t , y = −t, and z = -3+3t.

we have to solve for 'y' only,

⇒ y = -t    (answer)

A bag of 20 marbles consists of 5 blue marbles, 4 red marbles and 9 yellow marbles. You draw a marble out of the bag, put it back then draw out another marble. Calculate the probability you will draw a blue marble on your first draw and then draw a blue marble on your second draw? Write your answer a percentage to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

The probability you will draw a blue marble on your first draw and then draw a blue marble on your second draw is 0.063.

What is probability?

It is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes, in other words, the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

Total marbles = 20

Number of blue marbles = 5

P(blue) = 5/20

P(blue∩blue) = P(blue)×P(blue)

= (5/20)(5/20)

= 25/400

= 1/16

= 0.0625 ≈ 0.063

Thus, the probability you will draw a blue marble on your first draw and then draw a blue marble on your second draw is 0.063.

Ashley has 100 books that she wants to give away at the rate of n books per week. Write a recursive function that represents the number of books Ashley has at any time.
The recursive function that gives the number of books Ashley has at any time is

, starting at
.

Answers

The recursive formula would be: 100 - XN = B.

What is Recursive formula?

When a function calls itself and uses its own previous terms to define its subsequent terms, it is called a recursive function. It is the technical recursive function’s definition, i.e., a recursive function builds on itself.

X: represents how many weeks

N: represents books per week

B: represents books she has at anytime

So the recursive formula would be: 100 - XN = B

Answers

Check the forward differences of the sequence.

• first-order differences

5 - 1 = 4

12 - 5 = 7

22 - 12 = 10

35 - 22 = 13

• second-order differences (i.e. differences of the first differences)

7 - 4 = 3

10 - 7 = 3

13 - 10 = 3

The second differences are all 3 (as far as we know), so the sequence of first differences is arithmetic/linear, which means the original sequence is quadratic. Let the [tex]n[/tex]-th term be

[tex]x_n = an^2 + bn + c[/tex]

Given that [tex]x_1=1[/tex], [tex]x_2=5[/tex], and [tex]x_3=12[/tex], we have

[tex]\begin{cases} a + b + c = 1 \\ 4a + 2b + c = 5 \\ 9a + 3b + c = 12 \end{cases} \implies a=\dfrac32, b=-\dfrac12, c=0[/tex]

and so the [tex]n[/tex]-th term of the sequence is generated by the rule

[tex]x_n = \dfrac{3n^2 - n}2[/tex]

which most closely resembles the last option,

Square the term number, multiply the result by 3, subtract the term number, and divide the result by 2.
