Answer:
What three consecutive integers have a sum of 87? Which means that the first number is 28, the second number is 28 + 1 and the third number is 28 + 2. Therefore, three consecutive integers that add up to 87 are 28, 29, and 30. We know our answer is correct because 28 + 29 + 30 equals 87 as displayed above.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consecutive integers are as simple as 1, 2, 3!
Integers are consecutive if one follows another. How do we "jump" from one integer to the next? We add 1, right? 7, 8 and 9 are three consecutive integers. Add one to 7 to get 8 and add one more to get 9.
Now lets think about this in algebraic terms. Lets name these consecutive integers , x, y and z.
The problem tells us that their sum is -87. (Recall, "sum" is just a fancy word for the answer when we add.)
x+y+z = -87
Here is the trick! We need to rewrite this equation so that we have only one variable. Easy!
y is one more that x, so y= x+1
And z is one more than y, so z= y+1. But y is also equal to (x+1)! So z=y+1=(x+1)+1=x+2
Now we have a problem that we can solve! x+(x+1)+(x+2)=-87.
Combining term.: 3x+3=-87
Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation: 3x=84
Divide each side of the equation by 3: x=28
We have solved for x, but we are not done! We need to find y and z. I know you can do this. Remember y is one more than x and z is one more than y.
Check your work! Make sure these three consecutive numbers do in fact add up to -87.
An insurance company offers its policyholders a number of different premium payment options. For a randomly selected policyholder, let X 5 the number of months between successive payments. The cdf of X is as follows:
0 x<1
0.30 1< x <3
F(x)= 0.40 3< x <4
0.45 4< x <6
0.60 6< x <12
1 12< x
Required:
a. What is the pmf of x?
b. Using just the cdf, compute P(3< x <6)and P(4< x)
Answer:
(a)
[tex]\begin{array}{cccccc}x & {1} & {3} & {4} & {6} & {12} \ \\ P(x) & {0.30} & {0.10} & {0.05} & {0.15} & {0.40} \ \end{array}[/tex]
(b)
[tex]P(3 \le x \le 6) = 0.30[/tex]
[tex]P(4 \le x)=0.60[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]F(x) = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}0& x<1 &\\0.30&1 \le x<3 &\\0.40&3 \le x < 4& &0.45 &4 \le x<6 &\\0.60 & 6 \le x < 12 & & 1 & 12 \le x\end{array}\right[/tex]
Solving (a): The pmf
This means that we list out the probability of each value of x.
To do this, we simply subtract the current probability value from the next.
So, we have:
[tex]\begin{array}{cccccc}x & {1} & {3} & {4} & {6} & {12} \ \\ P(x) & {0.30} & {0.10} & {0.05} & {0.15} & {0.40} \ \end{array}[/tex]
The calculation is as follows:
[tex]0.30 - 0 = 0.30[/tex]
[tex]0.40 - 0.30 = 0.10[/tex]
[tex]0.45 - 0.40 = 0.05[/tex]
[tex]0.60 - 0.45 = 0.15[/tex]
[tex]1 - 0.60 = 0.40[/tex]
The x values are gotten by considering where the equality sign is in each range.
[tex]1 \le x < 3[/tex] means [tex]x = 1[/tex]
[tex]3 \le x < 4[/tex] means [tex]x = 3[/tex]
[tex]4 \le x < 6[/tex] means [tex]x=4[/tex]
[tex]6 \le x < 12[/tex] means [tex]x = 6[/tex]
[tex]12 \le x[/tex] means [tex]x = 12[/tex]
Solving (b):
[tex](i)\ P(3 \le x \le 6)[/tex]
This is calculated as:
[tex]P(3 \le x \le 6) = F(6) - F(3-)[/tex]
From the given function
[tex]F(6)= 0.60[/tex]
[tex]F(3-) = F(1) = 0.30[/tex]
So:
[tex]P(3 \le x \le 6) = 0.60 - 0.30[/tex]
[tex]P(3 \le x \le 6) = 0.30[/tex]
[tex](ii)\ P(4 \le x)[/tex]
This is calculated as:
[tex]P(4 \le x)=1 - F(4-)[/tex]
[tex]P(4 \le x)=1 - F(3)[/tex]
[tex]P(4 \le x)=1 - 0.40[/tex]
[tex]P(4 \le x)=0.60[/tex]
Let two events A and B be independent. Knowing P(A)=0.8 and P(A+B)=0.93. Calculate the probability P(B).
Answer:
Hello,
P(B)=0.65
Step-by-step explanation:
If P(A+B) means P(A∪B)=0.93 then you may read below.
Let's say x=P(B)
A and B being independent, P(A∩B)=P(A)*P(B)=0.8*x
Since P(A∪B)=P(A)+P(x)-P(A∩B) ,
0.93=0.8+x-0.8*x
0.2*x=0.13
x=0.65

Work out the values of a, b and k ? 30 points
Answer:
[tex]\displaystyle a=4, b= \frac{25}{4}, \text{ and } k = \frac{125}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that the graph passes through the points: (0, 4), (1, 25), and (1.5, k).
The standard exponential function has the form:
[tex]\displaystyle y = ab^x[/tex]
The point (0, 4) tells us that y = 4 when x = 0. Therefore:
[tex](4) = a(b)^0[/tex]
Since anything raised to zero is one:
[tex]a=4[/tex]
Hence, our function is now:
[tex]y = 4(b)^x[/tex]
The point (1, 25) tells us that y = 25 when x = 1. By substituting:
[tex](25) = 4(b)^{(1)}[/tex]
Solve for b:
[tex]\displaystyle b = \frac{25}{4}[/tex]
Thus, our completed function is:
[tex]\displaystyle y = 4\left(\frac{25}{4}\right)^x[/tex]
To find k, simply substitute 1.5 for x. This yields:
[tex]\displaystyle y = k = 4\left(\frac{25}{4}\right)^{(1.5)}[/tex]
And evaluate. Hence:
[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} k &= 4\left(\frac{25}{4}\right)^{3/2} \\ \\ &= 4\left(\left(\frac{25}{4}\right)^{1/2}\right)^3 \\ \\ &= 4\left(\frac{5}{2}\right)^3 \\ \\ &= 4\left(\frac{125}{8}\right) \\ \\ &= \frac{125}{2}\end{aligned}[/tex]
In conclusion:
[tex]\displaystyle a=4, b= \frac{25}{4}, \text{ and } k = \frac{125}{2}[/tex]

Find the missing side or angle.
Round to the nearest tenth.
b=15 a=30 c=29 a=[?]. Acellus plz
Answer:
∠ A ≈ 79.0°
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the Cosine rule to find the angle
cosA = [tex]\frac{b^2+c^2-a^2}{2bc}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{15^2+29^2-30^2}{2(15)(29)}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{225+841-900}{870}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{166}{870}[/tex] , then
A = [tex]cos^{-1}[/tex] ([tex]\frac{166}{870}[/tex] ) ≈ 79.0° ( to the nearest tenth )

Which matrix equation represents the system of equations?
{-x+ 2y = 0
y= -2
We are given a system of equations,
[tex]\begin{cases}-x+2y=0\\y=-2\\ \end{cases}[/tex]
This will translate into a 2x2 matrix of coefficients (because 2 equations and 2 unknowns),
[tex]\begin{bmatrix}-1&2\\0&1\\ \end{bmatrix}[/tex]
The matrix will then be applied to the vector (lower dimensions on top),
[tex]\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\\ \end{bmatrix}[/tex]
And the result vector will be whats on the other side of equals sign,
[tex]\begin{bmatrix}0\\-2\\ \end{bmatrix}[/tex]
So to put everything together,
[tex]\begin{bmatrix}-1&2\\0&1\\ \end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\\ \end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}0\\-2\\ \end{bmatrix}[/tex]

Sorry this is NWEA so I want you to try and figure it out on your own, hint: use subtraction.
Step-by-step explanation:
1.) Three numbers form a geometric sequence whose common ratio is 0.5. If the first is reduced to 10 more than one quarter its value, the second decreased by 10, and the third increased by 10 more than twice its value, the resulting three numbers form an arithmetic sequence. Determine the original three numbers.
Let x be the first number in the sequence, so the first three numbers are
{x, 0.5x, 0.5²x}
Then
{x/4 + 10, 0.5x - 10, 2(0.5²x) + 10}
is arithmetic, so there is some constant c such that
0.5x - 10 = x/4 + 10 + c ==> x/2 - 10 = x/4 + 10 + c
2(0.5²x) + 10 = 0.5x - 10 + c ==> x/2 + 10 = x/2 - 10 + c
Solve the second equation for c :
x/2 + 10 = x/2 - 10 + c
c = 20
Substitute this into the first equation and solve for x :
x/2 - 10 = x/4 + 10 + 20
x/4 = 40
x = 160
Then the terms are
{160, 80, 40}

Find the length represented by x for each pair of similar triangles.
18cm, 9cm, and x
30cm, 15cm, and 25cm
Answer:
15 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the traingles are similar, we can find the ratio between the side lengths, and it will be the same for each side.
We can use the side length 9 and 15 to find this ratio. 15/9=5/3. So, the ratio of a side length of the larger triangle to the smaller one is 5/3, so our equation becomes 5/3 = 25/x. Use any method you like to find that x=15.

"What mathematical ideas are you curious to know more about as a result of takingthis class? Give one example of a question about the material that you'd like to explorefurther, and describe why this is an interesting question to you."
One mathematical idea I've always been curious about is "integration and derivation".
Integration is about assimilating different variables. Derivation is a mathematical process whereby a result is gotten from some initial assumptions.
Integration is used everyday in different aspects of our lives. For example, if a person is travelling from let's say point A to point B, the speed used by the person might vary but through integration, one can easily get the accurate speed.
Through the division of equations into smaller bits, once can use integration to get the answer that one seeks. Architect can use integration in building the right structures at the exact places where the structures fits.
Likewise derivatives can be used by businesses in assessing whether a profit or loss will be made for a particular transaction or sale of product.

Find the missing length. The triangles are similar.
Answer:
Missing length = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the missing length.
Since the triangles are similar, ∆KLM ~ ∆KRS, therefore, the ratio of their corresponding side lengths would be the same. This implies that:
KL/KR = KM/KS
KL = 65
KR = 65 - 52
KR = 13
KM = 60
KS = x
Plug in the values
65/13 = 60/x
Cross multiply
65*x = 60*13
65x = 780
Divide both sides by 65
65x/65 = 780/65
x = 12
