Answer:
The answer is
[tex]y = 3[/tex]
[tex]y = - 4[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We must find a solution where
[tex] \frac{6}{y + 1} + \frac{y}{y - 2} = \frac{6}{y + 1} \times \frac{y}{y - 2} [/tex]
Consider the Left Side:
First, to add fraction multiply each fraction on the left by it corresponding denomiator and we should get
[tex] \frac{6}{y + 1} \times \frac{y - 2}{y - 2} + \frac{y}{y - 2} \times \frac{y + 1}{y + 1} [/tex]
Which equals
[tex] \frac{6y - 12}{(y -2) (y + 1)} + \frac{ {y}^{2} + y }{(y - 2)(y + 1)} [/tex]
Add the fractions
[tex] \frac{y {}^{2} + 7y - 12 }{(y - 2)(y + 1)} = \frac{6}{y + 1} \times \frac{y}{y - 2} [/tex]
Simplify the right side by multiplying the fraction
[tex] \frac{6y}{(y + 1)(y + 2)} [/tex]
Set both fractions equal to each other
[tex] \frac{6y}{(y + 1)(y - 2)} = \frac{ {y}^{2} + 7y - 12}{(y + 1)(y - 2)} [/tex]
Since the denomiator are equal, we must set the numerator equal to each other
[tex]6y = {y}^{2} + 7y - 12[/tex]
[tex] = {y}^{2} + y - 12[/tex]
[tex](y + 4)(y - 3)[/tex]
[tex]y = - 4[/tex]
[tex]y = 3[/tex]
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{6}{y+1}+\frac{y}{y-2}=\frac{6}{y+1} \times \frac{y}{y-2} \\multiply ~by~(y+1)(y-2)\\6(y-2)+y(y+1)=6y\\6y-12+y^2+y=6y\\y^2+y-12=0\\y^2+4y-3y-12=0\\y(y+4)-3(y+4)=0\\(y+4)(y-3)=0\\y=-4,3[/tex]

For each one of the following statements, indicate whether it is true or false.
(a) If X = Y (i.e., the two random variables always take the same values), then Van X | Y = 0.
(b) If X = Y (the two random variables always take the same values), then Var (X | Y) = Var (X).
(c) If Y takes on the value y, then the random variable Var (X | Y) takes the value E[(X – E[X | Y = y])2 |Y = y].
(d) If Y takes on the value y, then the random variable Var (X | Y) takes the value E[(X - E[X | Y])2 | Y = y].
(e) If Y takes on the value y, then the random variable Var ( X | Y) takes the value E[(X – E[X])2 | Y = y].
Solution :
a). [tex]$\text{Var} (X|Y) =E ((X-E(X|Y))^2 |Y)$[/tex]
Now, if X = Y, then :
[tex]P(X|Y)=\left\{\begin{matrix} 1,& \text{if } x=y \\ 0, & \text{otherwise }\end{matrix}\right.[/tex]
Then, E[X|Y] = x = y
So, [tex]$\text{Var} (X|Y) =E((X-X)^2 |Y)$[/tex]
[tex]$=E(0|Y)$[/tex]
= 0
Therefore, this statement is TRUE.
b). If X = Y , then Var (X) = Var (Y)
And as Var (X|Y) = 0, so Var (X|Y) ≠ Var (X), except when all the elements of Y are same.
So this statement is FALSE.
c). As defined earlier,
[tex]$\text{Var} (X|Y) =E ((X-E(X|Y))^2 |Y=y)$[/tex]
So, this statement is also TRUE.
d). The statement is TRUE because [tex]$\text{Var} (X|Y) =E ((X-E(X|Y))^2 |Y=y)$[/tex].
e). FALSE
Because, [tex]$\text{Var} (X|Y) =E ((X-E(X|Y=y))^2 |Y=y)$[/tex]

Suppose 35.45% of small businesses experience cash flow problems in their first 5 years. A consultant takes a random sample of 530 businesses that have been opened for 5 years or less. What is the probability that between 34.2% and 39.03% of the businesses have experienced cash flow problems?
1) 0.6838
2) 20.3738
3) 0.3162
4) - 11.6695
5) 1.2313
Answer:
1) 0.6838
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
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.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes 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.
For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]
35.45% of small businesses experience cash flow problems in their first 5 years.
This means that [tex]p = 0.3545[/tex]
Sample of 530 businesses
This means that [tex]n = 530[/tex]
Mean and standard deviation:
[tex]\mu = p = 0.3545[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.3545(1-0.3545)}{530}} = 0.0208[/tex]
What is the probability that between 34.2% and 39.03% of the businesses have experienced cash flow problems?
This is the p-value of Z when X = 0.3903 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.342.
X = 0.3903
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{0.3903 - 0.3545}{0.0208}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.72[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.72[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9573
X = 0.342
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{0.342 - 0.3545}{0.0208}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.6[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.6[/tex] has a p-value of 0.27425
0.9573 - 0.2743 = 0.683
With a little bit of rounding, 0.6838, so option 1) is the answer.

Answer:
Frumpyton
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the standard deviation of Frumpyton is a lower number, this means a higher percentage of outcomes (job salaries) will be within a closer range to the mean salary. Since Frumpyton's standard deviation is $2,000 and the window your looking for is $32,000 to $36,000, if you go one interval up or down from the mean of $34,000, it falls in that range. Whereas, Dirtballville's standard deviation is $3,000 so it's more likely to fall outside of that range.

The largest angle in a triangle is six times the smallest angle. The middle angle is three times the smallest angle. Given that the sum of the angles in a triangle is , find the measure of each angle.
Answer:
Smallest: 18° Middle: 54° Largest: 108°
Step-by-step explanation:
We can start by writing out what we know in a series of equations:
s= smallest angle, m= medium angle, L= largest angle.
Since the largest is 6 times the smallest we have:
L=6s
Since the middle is 3 times the smallest we have:
m=3s
Since the 3 interior angle measures of a triangle always must equal 180°, we have:
s+m+L=180
Then we plug in our L and m into the third equation:
s+3s+6s=180
Combining like terms and solving:
10s=180
s=18
Then we plug in 18 for s into the first 2 equations to get:
L= 6* 18
L= 108
and
m= 3* 18
m= 54
So s= 18, m= 54, and L=108.
To check the answer we can:
Add the three to make sure they equal 180. Make sure the smallest is the smallest, and the largest is the largest.Exercise 2.2.3: The cardinality of a power set. (a) What is the cardinality of P({1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6})
Answer:
Cardinality of the power set of the given set = [tex]2^6=64[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Power set is the set of all the possible subsets that can be formed from the given set including the null set and the set itself.
Example set:
{1,2,3}
All the possible subsets of this set:
{}; {1}; {2}; {3}; {1,2,3}; {1,2}; {1,3}; {2,3}
The power set of the above set is written as:
P({ {}, {1}, {2}, {3}, {1,2}, {1,3}, {2,3}, {1,2,3} })
Since the no. of elements in the above power set in this example is 8 therefore its cardinality is 8.
Cardinality of the power set of a given set is expressed by a formula: [tex]2^n[/tex]
where n is the cardinality (no. of elements) of the given set whose power set is to be formed for determining cardinality of the power set.
Hence in the given case, we have n = 6.

Answer the following.
(a) Find an angle between and that is coterminal with .
(b) Find an angle between and that is coterminal with . Give exact values for your answers.
I believe this is your question:
A.) find an angle between 0 degrees and 360 degrees that is coterminal with 570 degrees.
Answer:
210 degrees
Explanation:
Coterminal angles begin on the same initial side and end or terminate on the same side as an angle. Example 45 degrees and 405 degrees are coterminal angles because they both begin and end on the same side.
To find an angle between 0 and 360 that is coterminal with 570 degrees, w simply subtract 360 degrees from 570, hence:
570-360=210 degrees
570 degrees is coterminal with 210 degrees
for the function f(x)=5 evaluate and simplify the expression: f (a+h)-f(a)/h
Answer:
0 is the answer assuming the whole thing is a fraction where the numerator is f(a+h)-f(a) and the denominator is h.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the expression for f is really a constant, then the difference quotient will lead to an answer of 0.
If the extra for f is linear (including constant expressions), the difference quotient will be the slope of the expression.
However, let's go about it long way for fun.
If f(x)=5, then f(a)=5.
If f(x)=5, then f(a+h)=5.
If f(a)=5 and f(a+h)=5, then f(a+h)-f(a)=0.
If f(a+h)-f(a)=0, then [f(a+h)-f(a)]/h=0/h=0.
By recognizing each series below as a Taylor series evaluated at a particular value of x, find the sum of each convergent series.
A. 1 + 1/5 + (1/5)^2 + (1/5)^3 + (1/5)^4 +.....+ (1/5)^n + .... = _____.
B. 1 + 5 + 5^2/2! + 5^3/3! + 5^4/4! +....+ 5^n/n! +....= _____.
The first sum is a geometric series:
[tex]1+\dfrac15+\dfrac1{5^2}+\dfrac1{5^3}+\cdots+\dfrac1{5^n}+\cdots=\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac1{5^n}[/tex]
Recall that for |x| < 1, we have
[tex]\dfrac1{1-x}=\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty x^n[/tex]
Here we have |x| = |1/5| = 1/5 < 1, so the first sum converges to 1/(1 - 1/5) = 5/4.
The second sum is exponential:
[tex]1+5+\dfrac{5^2}{2!}+\dfrac{5^3}{3!}+\cdots+\dfrac{5^n}{n!}+\cdots=\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{5^n}{n!}[/tex]
Recall that
[tex]\exp(x)=\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty\frac{x^n}{n!}[/tex]
which converges everywhere, so the second sum converges to exp(5) or e⁵.

Answer:
[tex]v \cdot w = 8.0[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
See comment for complete question
Given
[tex]|v| = |w| = 4[/tex] --- the side lengths
Required
[tex]v \cdot w[/tex]
[tex]v \cdot w = |v| \cdot |w| \cdot (cos\theta)[/tex]
From the question, we understand that v and w are sides of an equilateral triangle.
This means that:
[tex]\theta = 60^o[/tex] --- angles in an equilateral triangle
So:
[tex]v \cdot w = |v| \cdot |w| \cdot (\cos 60)[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]v \cdot w = 4 * 4 * 0.5[/tex]
[tex]v \cdot w = 8.0[/tex]

Suppose a large telephone manufacturer has a problem with excessive customer complaints and consequent returns of the phones for repair or replacement. The manufacturer wants to estimate the magnitude of the problem in order to design a quality control program. How many telephones should be sampled and checked in order to estimate the proportion defective to within 9 percentage points with 89% confidence
Answer:
80 telephones should be sampled
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
The margin of error is of:
[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
89% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.11[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.11}{2} = 0.945[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.6[/tex].
How many telephones should be sampled and checked in order to estimate the proportion defective to within 9 percentage points with 89% confidence?
n telephones should be sampled, an n is found when M = 0.09. We have no estimate for the proportion, thus we use [tex]\pi = 0.5[/tex]
[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.09 = 1.6\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.09\sqrt{n} = 1.6*0.5[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.6*0.5}{0.09}[/tex]
[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.6*0.5}{0.09})^2[/tex]
[tex]n = 79.01[/tex]
Rounding up(as 79 gives a margin of error slightly above the desired value).

Matthew participates in a study that is looking at how confident students at SUNY Albany are. The mean score on the scale is 50. The distribution has a standard deviation of 10 and is normally distributed. Matthew scores a 65. What percentage of people could be expected to score the same as Matthew or higher on this scale?
a) 93.32%
b) 6.68%
c) 0.07%
d) 43.32%
Answer:
b) 6.68%
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 mean score on the scale is 50. The distribution has a standard deviation of 10.
This means that [tex]\mu = 50, \sigma = 10[/tex]
Matthew scores a 65. What percentage of people could be expected to score the same as Matthew or higher on this scale?
The proportion is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 65. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{65 - 50}{10}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.5[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9332.
1 - 0.9332 = 0.0668
0.0668*100% = 6.68%
So the correct answer is given by option b.
When 4 times a positive number is subtracted from the square of the number, the result is 5. Find the number.
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - 4x = 5
x² - 4x - 5 = 0
the solution of a quadratic equation is
x = (-b ± sqrt(b² - 4ac))/(2a)
a = 1
b = -4
c = -5
x = (4 ± sqrt(16 + 20))/2 = (4 ± sqrt(36))/2
x1 = (4 + 6)/2 = 5
x2 = (4 - 6)/2 = -1
since we are looking only for a positive number, x=5 is the answer.
what is the formula for perimeter of a square
Answer: P = 4s
Step-by-step explanation:
P = 4s where s = the length of each side.
Since each side of a square is the same length, the side length is multiplied by 4.
