 Suppose F(x) Is Continuous On [3,6] And 3f(x)5 For All X In (3,6). Use The Mean Value Theorem To Estimate

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:   -9  ≤ f(6) - f(3)  ≤ 15

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to use the Mean Value Theorem, it must be continuous and differentiable. Both of these conditions are satisfied so we can continue.  

Find f(6) - f(3) using the following formula:

[tex]f'(c)=\dfrac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}[/tex]

Consider:    a = 3, b = 6

[tex]\text{Then}\ f'(c)=\dfrac{f(6)-f(3)}{6-3}\\\\\\\rightarrow \quad 3f'(c)=f(6) - f(3)[/tex]          

Given: -3 ≤  f'(x)  ≤ 5

          -9  ≤ 3f'(c) ≤ 15    Multiplied each side by 3

→   -9  ≤ f(6) - f(3)  ≤ 15  Substituted 3f'(c) with f(6) - f(3)

Suppose that the operations manager of a nose mask packaging delivery service is

contemplating the purchase of a new fleet of trucks. When

packages are efficiently stored in the trucks in preparation for delivery, two major constraints

have to be considered. The weight in pounds and volume in cubic feet for each item. Now

suppose that in a sample of 200 packages the average weight is 26.0 pounds with a standard

deviation of 3.9 pounds. In addition suppose that the average volume for each of these

packages is 8.8 cubic feet with standard deviation of 2.2 cubic feet. How can we compare the

variation of the weight and volume?​

Answers

Answer:

Coefficient of variation (weight) = 15%

Coefficient of variation (volume) = 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's begin by listing out the given information:

Population = 200, Average weight = 26 lb,

standard deviation (weight) = 3.9 lb,

Average volume = 8.8 ft³,

standard deviation (volume) = 2.2 ft³

Based on the data given, the manager will have to make a deduction by comparing the relative scatter of both variables due to the different units of measuring weight (pounds) and volume (cubic feet).

To compare the variation of the weight and volume, we use the coefficient of variation given by the formula:

Coefficient of Variation = (Standard deviation ÷ Mean) * 100%

⇒ [tex]C_{v}[/tex] = (σ ÷ μ) * 100%

For weight

σ = 3.9 lb, μ = 26 lb

[tex]C_{v}[/tex] (weight) = (3.9 ÷ 26.0) * 100% = 15%

[tex]C_{v}[/tex] (weight) = 15%

For volume

σ = 2.2 ft³, μ = 8.8 ft³

[tex]C_{v}[/tex] (volume) = (2.2 ÷ 8.8) * 100% = 25%

[tex]C_{v}[/tex] (volume) = 25%

∴ the relative variation of the volume of the package is greater than that of the weight of the package

what is the answer to -9x = -27

Answers

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

9x = 27

Divide both sides by 9,

x = 27/9 which on factorization of the numerator is written as

x = 9 x 3/9 = 3

Calculation 2: Exponent Or Index Method

9x = 27

Since 9 = 3² and 27 = 3³, the given equation takes the form

3² x = 3³

This gives

x = 3³ ÷ 3² = 3³­­­­­¯² [using the formula a^m ÷ a^n = a^(m-n)]

= 3¹ = 3 (since the first power of a number is the number itself)

9 x 1 = 9

9 x 2 = 16

9 x 3 = 27

9 x 4 = 36

We stop here because we have already got the answer 27, the right-side of the equality, when 9 is multiplied by 3 . So,

x = 3

hope this helped!

Answer:
x = 3

Explanation:
Step 1 - Divide both sides by negative nine
-9x = -27
-9x / -9 = -27 / -9
x = 3

Kristen wants to buy a Persian cat. She takes out a loan for $500 for one year. The bank charges
her an annual simple interest rate of 8%.


a. How much will she have to pay back at the end of the 1 year?


b. How much interest does she have to pay?

Answers

Answer:

a. How much will she have to pay back at the end of the 1 year?

Answer: $540

b. How much interest does she have to pay?

Answer: $40

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest for any amount p is given by

SI = p*r*t/100

where r is the annual rate rate of interest

t is the time

____________________________________________

Given

p= $500 (loan taken)

r = 8%

t = 1 year

SI = 500*8*1/100 = 40

Thus, $40 is the interest charged in a year.

Total money paid at the end of one year = loan taken  + interest charged

                                                                    = $500 + $40

                                                                    = $540

a. How much will she have to pay back at the end of the 1 year?

Answer: $540

b. How much interest does she have to pay?

What is 2/3 divided 1/6 ?

Answers

Answer: 4

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to divide one fraction by another, you must multiply by the reciprocal(the reverse of a certain fraction). the reciprocal of 1/6 is 6/1. so:

[tex]\frac{2}{3} / \frac{1}{6}[/tex] =           multiply by the reciprocal of 1/6

[tex]\frac{2}{3} * \frac{6}{1}[/tex] =         cross out

[tex]\frac{2}{1} * \frac{2}{1}[/tex] =         multiply

[tex]\frac{4}{1}[/tex] =               simplify

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

(2/3)/(1/6)

Eleminate the denominator by multiplying numerator and denominator with whatever is the reciprocal of the denominator. In this case the denominator is 1/6 so the reciprocal is 6/1 or "just" 6.

So, multiply numerator and denominator by 6. The next three (bold) steps, have been written down for explanatory purposes only, and normally are not nessasary.

4. Ronnie increased the amount of money in his piggy bank by 25%. Which expression can be used to find the amount of money in his bank? Let "m" represent the original​.

Step-by-step explanation:

let original price = p

a) p+ 0.3p = p + 30% of p

30% more than original price

b) 0.7p = 70% of p

= 70% of the original price

c) 17p = 17 × p

= 17times of the original price

d) p-0.7p = p - 70% of p

= 70% less than original price

Let original time = t

e) 85% more than the original time = t + 85%of t

= t + 0.85t

f) 15% less time than the original time = t - 15% of t

= t - 0.15t

g) 85% time decrease = t - 85% of t

= t - 0.85t

h) 15% time increase = t + 15% of t

= t + 0.15t

4. Since "m" represent the original amount in Hus piggy bank

Business Week conducted a survey of graduates from 30 top MBA programs. On the basis of the survey, assume that the mean annual salary for male and female graduates 10 years after graduation is $168,000 and $117,000, respectively. Assume the standard deviation for the male graduates is $40,000 and for the female graduates it is $25,000. 1. In which of the preceding two cases, part a or part b, do we have a higher probability of obtaining a smaple estimate within $10,000 of the population mean? why? 2. What is the probability that a simple random sample of 100 male graduates will provide a sample mean more than $4,000 below the population mean?

Answers

Answer:

1. Due to the lower standard deviation, it is more likely to obtain a sample of females within $10,000 of the population mean

2. 15.87% probability that a simple random sample of 100 male graduates will provide a sample mean more than $4,000 below the population mean

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

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.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

1. In which of the preceding two cases, part a or part b, do we have a higher probability of obtaining a smaple estimate within $10,000 of the population mean? why?

The lower the standard deviation, the less dispersed the values are, meaning it is more likely to find values within a certain threshold of the mean.

So

Due to the lower standard deviation, it is more likely to obtain a sample of females within $10,000 of the population mean.

2. What is the probability that a simple random sample of 100 male graduates will provide a sample mean more than $4,000 below the population mean?

We have that:

[tex]\mu = 168000, \sigma = 40000, n = 100, s = \frac{40000}{\sqrt{100}} = 4000[/tex]

This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 168000 - 4000 = 164000. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{164000 - 168000}{4000}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.1587

15.87% probability that a simple random sample of 100 male graduates will provide a sample mean more than $4,000 below the population mean

A company estimates that 0.8% of their products will fail after the original warranty period but within 2 years of the purchase, with a replacement cost of $400. If they offer a 2 year extended warranty for $27, what is the company's expected value of each warranty sold?

Answers

Answer:

The expected value of each warranty sold is $23.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

0.8% probability of the product failling.

If the product fails, the company will lose 400 - 27 = $373. So a net value of -373.

100 - 0.8 = 99.2% probability of the product not failling.

If the product does not fail, the company gains $27.

What is the company's expected value of each warranty sold?

We multiply each outcome by its probability.

0.008*(-373) + 0.992*27 = 23.8

The expected value of each warranty sold is $23.8.

In a large population, 64% of the people have been vaccinated. If 5 people are randomly selected, what is the probability that AT LEAST ONE of them has been vaccinated? Give your answer as a decimal to 4 places.

Answers

Answer:

0.9940

Step-by-step explanation:

P(at least 1) = 1 − P(zero)

P(at least 1) = 1 − (1 − 0.64)⁵

P(at least 1) = 1 − (0.36)⁵

P(at least 1) = 0.9940

The probability that at least one of them has been vaccinated is 0.9939.

What is binomial distribution?

The binomial distribution is the discrete probability distribution that gives only two possible results in an experiment, either success or failure. It helps to check the probability of getting “x” successes in “n” independent trials of a binomial experiment.

For the given situation,

Number of people vaccinated = 64% = 0.64

The formula of binomial distribution is

[tex]P(x:n,p) = nC_{x} p^x (1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

Here x is the number of successes, x ≤ 1

n is the number of trials, n = 5

p is the probability of a success on a single trial, p = 0.64 and

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

The probability is [tex]P(X \leq 1)=1-P(X=0)[/tex]

[tex]P(X=0)= 5C_{0} (0.64)^{0} (1-0.64)^{5-0}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]P(X=0)= 1(1) (0.36)^{5}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]P(X=0)= 0.0060[/tex]

Thus, [tex]P(X \leq 1)=1-P(X=0)\\[/tex]

⇒ [tex]P(X \leq 1)=1-0.0060[/tex]

⇒ [tex]P(X \leq 1)=0.9939[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the probability that at least one of them has been vaccinated is 0.9939.

We have a bag containing 4 yellow, 5 green and 6 orange candies. We draw two candies without replacement.
Find the probability of getting both candies green

Answers

Answer:

9.52% probability of getting both candies green

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

The order in which the candies are selected is not important. They are also selected without replacement. So we use the combinations formula to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

[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]

Find the probability of getting both candies green

Desired outcomes:

2 green, from a set of 5. So

[tex]D = C_{5,2} = \frac{5!}{2!3!} = 10[/tex]

Total outcomes:

2 from a set of 4+5+6 = 15. So

[tex]T = C_{15,2} = \frac{15!}{2!13!} = 105[/tex]

Probability:

[tex]p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{10}{105} = 0.0952[/tex]

What is true about this system of equations {2x-y=5 , x=4

Answers

Answer: The systems of equations have only one solution because if x 4 then y is equal to 3 which  proves it that is a one solution graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

2(4)- y = 5

8 - y= 5

-8      -8

-1y= -3

y= 3

A population of beetles are growing according to a linear growth model. The initial population (week 0) is

P0=6, and the population after 8 weeks is P8=86 Find an explicit formula for the beetle population after n weeks.

After how many weeks will the beetle population reach 236?

Answers

Answer:

The number of weeks it will take for the  beetle population to reach 236 is 28.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a quantity starts at size P₀ and grows by d every time period, then the

quantity after n time periods can be determined using explicit form:

[tex]P_{n} = P_{0} + d \cdot n[/tex]

Here,

d = the common difference, i.e. the amount  that the population changes each time n is increased by 1.

In this case it is provided that the original population of beetle was:

P₀ = 6; (week 0)

And the population after 8 weeks was,

P₈ = 86

Compute the value of d as follows:

[tex]P_{8} = P_{0} + d \cdot 8\\86=6+8d\\86-6=8d\\80=8d\\d=10[/tex]

Thus, the explicit formula for the beetle population after n weeks is:

[tex]P_{n}=P_{0}+8n[/tex]

Compute the number of weeks it will take for the  beetle population to reach 236 as follows:

[tex]P_{n}=P_{0}+8n\\\\236=6+8n\\\\8n=236-6\\\\8n=230\\\\n=28.75[/tex]

Thus, the number of weeks it will take for the  beetle population to reach 236 is 28.75.

Select and place the symbol that will make the statement true |-a| |a|

Answers

Answer:

|-a|=|a|

Step-by-step explanation:

The lines beside the a's mean that you are trying to find the absolute value of what's inside. The absolute value of something is the distance it is from 0. You can't have a negative distance so anything inside of absolute value line are positive.

Therefor this is how we can solve this.

|-a| __ |a|

  a __ a

a=a

Simplify the following expression and then write down the coefficient of x²: x² + x² + x² + x²

Answers

Answer:

The expression is 4x² and coefficient is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

All have the same variables, x², so you add up together :

[tex] 1{x}^{2} + 1{x}^{2} + 1{x}^{2} + 1{x}^{2} [/tex]

[tex] = 4 {x}^{2} [/tex]
