A scientist is studying the growth of a particular species of plant. He writes the following equation to show the height of the plant f(n), in cm, after n days:

f(n) = 12(1.03)n

What is the average rate of change of the function f(n) from n = 3 to n = 10, and what does it represent? (4 points)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The average of rate was of 0.4314 cm/day, which means that on average, during this interval, the plant grew by 0.4314 cm each day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of change:

The average rate of change of a function f(x), from x = a to x = b, is given by:

[tex]A = \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}[/tex]

In this question:

[tex]f(x) = 12(1.03)^n[/tex]

From n = 3 to n = 10

[tex]a = 3, b = 10[/tex]

[tex]f(b) = f(10) = 12(1.03)^{10} = 16.13[/tex]

[tex]f(a) = f(3) = 12(1.03)^{3} = 13.11[/tex]

Average rate of change:

[tex]A = \frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a} = \frac{16.13-13.11}{10-3} = 0.4314[/tex]

The average of rate was of 0.4314 cm/day, which means that on average, during this interval, the plant grew by 0.4314 cm each day.

How many 1/6 cup serving of rice and in 2/3 cup of rice

Answers

Answer:

4 serving cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Serving\ cup = \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Rice\ cup = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Required

The number of serving cup (n)

This is calculated by dividing the rice cup by the serving cup

[tex]n = \frac{Rice\ cup}{Serving\ cup}[/tex]

[tex]n = \frac{2/3}{1/6}[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]n = \frac{2}{3} \div \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

A random sample of 30 patties that were inspected over the course of the last week revealed that the average weight was 95.0 grams. The standard deviation was 0.25 grams. What percentage of the deliveries is likely to be outside the specification limits (outside the interval of [94.5, 95.5])

Answers

Answer:

4.56% of the deliveries are likely to be outside the specification limits.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set 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]

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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

The average weight was 95.0 grams. The standard deviation was 0.25 grams.

This means that [tex]\mu = 95, \sigma = 0.25[/tex]

What percentage of the deliveries is likely to be outside the specification limits (outside the interval of [94.5, 95.5])?

Less than 94.5, or more than 95.5. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, these probabilities are the same, so we can find one of them and multiply by two.

The probability that it is less than 94.5 is the p-value of Z when X = 94.5. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{94.5 - 95}{0.25}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0228

2*0.0228 = 0.0456

0.0456*100% = 4.56%

4.56% of the deliveries are likely to be outside the specification limits.

Explanation:
(x + 5) + x + (7x - 5) = 180 (Sum of angles in a triangle)
x + 5 + x + 7x - 5 = 180
9x = 180
x = 20

Let P(x, y) denote the point where the terminal side of an angle θ meets the unit circle. If P is in Quadrant II and x = − 5⁄8 , evaluate the six trigonometric functions of θ.

Answers

The six trigonometric function of [tex]\theta[/tex] are [tex]\sin \theta \approx 0.781[/tex], [tex]\cos \theta = - \frac{5}{8}[/tex], [tex]\tan \theta \approx -1.250[/tex], [tex]\cot \theta \approx -0.800[/tex], [tex]\sec \theta = - \frac{8}{5}[/tex], [tex]\csc \theta \approx 1.280[/tex], respectively.

In this question, we assume that x-component of the terminal point is part of a unit circle. Then, we can find the value of y by means of the Pythagorean theorem:

[tex]y = \sqrt{1-x^{2}}[/tex] (1)

If we know that [tex]x = -\frac{5}{8}[/tex] and P is in the second quadrant, then the value of y is:

[tex]y = + \sqrt{1-\left(-\frac{5}{8} \right)^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]y \approx 0.781[/tex]

By trigonometry, we remember the following definitions for the six basic trigonometric functions:

[tex]\sin \theta = \frac{y}{1}[/tex] (1)

[tex]\cos \theta = \frac{x}{1}[/tex] (2)

[tex]\tan \theta = \frac{y}{x}[/tex] (3)

[tex]\cot \theta = \frac{1}{\tan\theta}[/tex] (4)

[tex]\sec \theta = \frac{1}{\cos \theta }[/tex] (5)

[tex]\csc \theta = \frac{1}{\sin \theta}[/tex] (6)

If we know that [tex]x = -\frac{5}{8}[/tex] and [tex]y \approx 0.781[/tex], then the six basic trigonometric functions are, respectively:

[tex]\sin \theta \approx 0.781[/tex], [tex]\cos \theta = - \frac{5}{8}[/tex], [tex]\tan \theta \approx -1.250[/tex], [tex]\cot \theta \approx -0.800[/tex], [tex]\sec \theta = - \frac{8}{5}[/tex], [tex]\csc \theta \approx 1.280[/tex]

The six trigonometric function of [tex]\theta[/tex] are [tex]\sin \theta \approx 0.781[/tex], [tex]\cos \theta = - \frac{5}{8}[/tex], [tex]\tan \theta \approx -1.250[/tex], [tex]\cot \theta \approx -0.800[/tex], [tex]\sec \theta = - \frac{8}{5}[/tex], [tex]\csc \theta \approx 1.280[/tex], respectively.

A = 0.25*j + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The question presented here is an application of linear models. The $1 amount is fixed and does not depend on any factor such as the cups of orange juice sold.

Furthermore, we are informed that we earn $0.25 for every cup of orange juice sold. This means that we shall earn 0.25 j by selling  j cups of orange juice.

The variable total amount, A will thus depend on the fixed amount of $1 and the variable income 0.25 j.

The equation in two variables that will represent the total amount A (in dollars) you have after selling j cups of orange juice will thus be;

A = 0.25*j + 1

Construct a 80% confidence interval for the population mean.

Answers

Answer:  

7.79771≤x≤8.20229  

Step-by-step explanation:  

Given the following  

sample size n = 8  

standard deviation s = 0.238  

Sample mean = 2.275  

z-score at 980% = 1.282

Confidence Interval = x ± z×s/√n  

Confidence Interval = 8 ± 1.282×0.238/1.5083)  

Confidence Interval = 8 ± (1.282×0.15779)

Confidence Interval = 8 ±0.20229    

CI = {8-0.20229, 8+0.20229}  

CI = {7.79771, 8.20229}

Hence the required confidence interval is 7.79771≤x≤8.20229

Write the equation of the line passing through the point (−3,−4) that is perpendicular to y=8/3x+5.

Answers

Answer:

y = -3/8x -41/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines intersect at 90° and their slopes are opposite reciprocals.

Therefore the slope changes from 8/3 to -3/8.

Now we must solve for the new y-intercept (b) by plugging in the given coordinate (-3,-4).

The result is b = -41/8 so our new equation is:

y = -3/8x -41/8

Answer:

There was a 45% increase in furniture sales.

Furniture sales rose by 9 percentage points.

Step-by-step explanation:

absolute difference = new - old

29-20= 9 percentage points

absolute difference / initial value = 9/20 = .45 * 100 = 45%

Two statements which are true about furniture sales are  [tex](a)[/tex] There was a [tex]45\%[/tex] increase in furniture sales and  [tex](f)[/tex]  Furniture sales rose by [tex]9[/tex] percentage points.

What is percentage ?

Percentage is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100. It is often denoted using the percent sign, "%".

Percentage [tex]=\frac{Obtained\ number}{Total\ number}\ * 100[/tex]

We have,

Sales of furniture in [tex]2015=20\%[/tex]

Sales of furniture in [tex]2016=29\%[/tex],

So,

Change in Percentage [tex]=29-20=9\%[/tex]

i.e.

Sales rise by [tex]9\%[/tex] points,

And,

Increase in Percentage [tex]=\frac{9}{20}\ *100=45\%[/tex]

Hence, we can say that Two statements which are true about furniture sales are [tex](a)[/tex] There was a [tex]45\%[/tex] increase in furniture sales and [tex](f)[/tex] Furniture sales rose by [tex]9[/tex] percentage points.

It has one solution (4,0).

Answers

Answer:

(0, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following systems of linear equations;

3x - 2y = 12 ...... equation 1

16x - 4y = 24 ........ equation 2

We would solve for the solution using the elimination method;

Multiplying eqn 1 by 2, we have;

2 * (3x - 2y = 12)

6x - 4y = 24

16x - 4y = 24

Subtracting the two equations, we have;

(6x - 16x) + (-4y -[-4y]) = (24 - 24)

-10x - 0 = 0

-10x = 0

x = -0/10 = 0

Next, we would find the value of y;

3x - 2y = 12

3(0) - 2y = 12

0 - 2y = 12

-2y = 12

y = -12/2

y = -6

Check:

3x - 2y = 12

3(0) - 2(-6) = 12

0 - (-12) = 12

12 = 12
