A breakfast cereal producer makes its most popular product by combining just raisins and flakes in each box of cereal. The amounts of flakes in the boxes of this cereal are normally distributed with a mean of 370\,\text{g}370g370, start text, g, end text and a standard deviation of 24\,\text{g}24g24, start text, g, end text. The amounts of raisins are also normally distributed with a mean of 170\,\text{g}170g170, start text, g, end text and a standard deviation of 7\,\text{g}7g7, start text, g, end text.
Let T=T=T, equals the total amount of product in a randomly selected box, and assume that the amounts of flakes and raisins are independent of each other.
Find the probability that the total amount of product is less than 575\,\text{g}575g575, start text, g, end text.
You may round your answer to two decimal places.
P(T<575)\approx

Answers

Answer 1

Using the normal distribution, it is found that there is a 0.9192 = 91.92% probability that the total amount of product is less than 575 g.

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

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

It 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, which is the percentile of X.When two normal variables are added, the mean is the sum of the means while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

In this problem, the product is composed by flakes and raisins, and we have that:

[tex]\mu_F = 370, \sigma_F = 24, \mu_R = 170, \sigma_R = 7[/tex]

Hence, the distribution for the total amount of product has mean and standard deviation given by:

[tex]\mu = \mu_F + \mu_R = 370 + 170 = 540[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\sigma_F^2 + \sigma_R^2} = \sqrt{24^2 + 7^2} = 25[/tex]

The probability that the total amount of product is less than 575 g is the p-value of Z when X = 575, hence:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{575 - 540}{25}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.4[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.4[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9192.

0.9192 = 91.92% probability that the total amount of product is less than 575 g.

You are playing a game where you draw a card from a standard deck, and you will win $13 if you draw a face card,
$3 if you draw an ace and lose $5 if you draw any other card. What is the expected gain from this game?

Round your final answer to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

win

There are 3 face cards / suit. Every suit contains a Jack, Queen, and king.

There are 4 suits so the number of face cards is 3*4 =  12

There is 1 ace / suit

There are 4 suits so the number of aces is 1 * 4 = 4

The gain from the face cards = 12 * 13 = 156

The gain from the aces = 4 * 3 =               12

Total gain = 168

Losses

Any other card costs you $5

How many cards is that? 52 - 16 = 36

Each one costs 5 dollars

Total loss = 5 * 36 = 180

So each time you play the game, you can expect to lose 180 - 68 = 12 dollars. You should walk away quickly from this one.

A package contains 12 ounces of cereal .If you use 1 portion of this cereal which is 1 1/3 how much would be left in the cereal box?

Answers

To answer this question, you would need to divide the total amount of cereal in the box by the serving size.

This would be 12 2/3 divided by 1 1/3.

We can write each mixed number as an improper fraction first before we divide:12 2/3 = 38/3 and 1 1/3 = 4/3

Now divide 38/3 by 4/3. Recall that dividing by a fraction is accomplished by multiplying by the reciprocal of the divisor: 38/3 * 3/4 = 114/12 = 38/4 OR 19/2

Also, 19/2 is equivalent to 9 and 1/2. There would be 9 and 1/2 servings in the box of cereal.

The function h(x) has a horizontal asymptote at y=5 and the  vertical asymptote is x=-2.

What is the function?

Functions are the fundamental part of the calculus in mathematics. The functions are the special types of relations. A function in math is visualized as a rule, which gives a unique output for every input x.

Given that, h(x)=g(x+5.

Horizontal asymptote (HA) - It is a horizontal line and hence its equation is of the form y = k.

Vertical asymptote (VA) - It is a vertical line and hence its equation is of the form x = k.

Here, the horizontal asymptote is 3, and the vertical asymptote is -2

The graph of h(x) = g(x+5) had a horizontal asymptote at y=5 and the same vertical asymptote as function g(x).

Therefore, the function h(x) has a horizontal asymptote at y=5 and the  vertical asymptote is x=-2.

maya picks 16 vegetables 6 of them are carrots the rest are cucumbers then she gives away 5 cucumbers how many cucumbers does maya have now

Answers

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

First subtract 6 from 16 to find how many cucumbers she has,

16 - 6 = 10

Now we know she has 10 cucumbers.

Subtract 5 from the 10 cucumbers to find out how many she has after giving away 5.

10 - 5 = 5

After subtracting the 5 cucumbers she gave away, we are left with 5

This means Maya has 5 cucumbers now

Differential Equation

Answers

1. The given equation is probably supposed to read

y'' - 2y' - 3y = 64x exp(-x)

First consider the homogeneous equation,

y'' - 2y' - 3y = 0

which has characteristic equation

r² - 2r - 3 = (r - 3) (r + 1) = 0

with roots r = 3 and r = -1. Then the characteristic solution is

[tex]y = C_1 e^{3x} + C_2 e^{-x}[/tex]

and we let y₁ = exp(3x) and y₂ = exp(-x), our fundamental solutions.

Now we use variation of parameters, which gives a particular solution of the form

[tex]y_p = u_1y_1 + u_2y_2[/tex]

where

[tex]\displaystyle u_1 = -\int \frac{64xe^{-x}y_2}{W(y_1,y_2)} \, dx[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle u_2 = \int \frac{64xe^{-x}y_1}{W(y_1,y_2)} \, dx[/tex]

and W(y₁, y₂) is the Wronskian determinant of the two fundamental solutions. This is

[tex]W(y_1,y_2) = \begin{vmatrix}e^{3x} & e^{-x} \\ (e^{3x})' & (e^{-x})'\end{vmatrix} = \begin{vmatrix}e^{3x} & e^{-x} \\ 3e^{3x} & -e^{-x}\end{vmatrix} = -e^{2x} - 3e^{2x} = -4e^{2x}[/tex]

Then we find

[tex]\displaystyle u_1 = -\int \frac{64xe^{-x} \cdot e^{-x}}{-4e^{2x}} \, dx = 16 \int xe^{-4x} \, dx = -(4x + 1) e^{-4x}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle u_2 = \int \frac{64xe^{-x} \cdot e^{3x}}{-4e^{2x}} \, dx = -16 \int x \, dx = -8x^2[/tex]

so it follows that the particular solution is

[tex]y_p = -(4x+1)e^{-4x} \cdot e^{3x} - 8x^2\cdot e^{-x} = -(8x^2+4x+1)e^{-x}[/tex]

and so the general solution is

[tex]\boxed{y(x) = C_1 e^{3x} + C_2e^{-x} - (8x^2+4x+1) e^{-x}}[/tex]

2. I'll again assume there's typo in the equation, and that it should read

y''' - 6y'' + 11y' - 6y = 2x exp(-x)

Again, we consider the homogeneous equation,

y''' - 6y'' + 11y' - 6y = 0

and observe that the characteristic polynomial,

r³ - 6r² + 11r - 6

has coefficients that sum to 1 - 6 + 11 - 6 = 0, which immediately tells us that r = 1 is a root. Polynomial division and subsequent factoring yields

r³ - 6r² + 11r - 6 = (r - 1) (r² - 5r + 6) = (r - 1) (r - 2) (r - 3)

and from this we see the characteristic solution is

[tex]y_c = C_1 e^x + C_2 e^{2x} + C_3 e^{3x}[/tex]

For the particular solution, I'll use undetermined coefficients. We look for a solution of the form

[tex]y_p = (ax+b)e^{-x}[/tex]

whose first three derivatives are

[tex]{y_p}' = ae^{-x} - (ax+b)e^{-x} = (-ax+a-b)e^{-x}[/tex]

[tex]{y_p}'' = -ae^{-x} - (-ax+a-b)e^{-x} = (ax-2a+b)e^{-x}[/tex]

[tex]{y_p}''' = ae^{-x} - (ax-2a+b)e^{-x} = (-ax+3a-b)e^{-x}[/tex]

Substituting these into the equation gives

[tex](-ax+3a-b)e^{-x} - 6(ax-2a+b)e^{-x} + 11(-ax+a-b)e^{-x} - 6(ax+b)e^{-x} = 2xe^{-x}[/tex]

[tex](-ax+3a-b) - 6(ax-2a+b) + 11(-ax+a-b) - 6(ax+b) = 2x[/tex]

[tex]-24ax+26a-24b = 2x[/tex]

It follows that -24a = 2 and 26a - 24b = 0, so that a = -1/12 = -12/144 and b = -13/144, so the particular solution is

[tex]y_p = -\dfrac{12x+13}{144}e^{-x}[/tex]

and the general solution is

[tex]\boxed{y = C_1 e^x + C_2 e^{2x} + C_3 e^{3x} - \dfrac{12x+13}{144} e^{-x}}[/tex]
