Answer:
assumed accuracy from overly precise numbers
Step-by-step explanation:
Except when counting large sums of money or considering definitions, most real-world numbers are not accurate beyond about 6 significant figures. When considering survey or sample results, the accuracy can be considerably less than that, often not even good to 3 significant figures. (Margin of error is usually some number of percentage points greater than 1.)
Expressing the given ratios to 10 significant figures substantially misstates their accuracy. (10^-9 television is less than 1 day's accumulated dust).
1+1/2+1/4+1/8+1/16+1/32+1/64
if you continue adding on fractions according to this pattern, when will you reach a sum of 2?
Answer: You will never reach a sum of 2. You would need infinitely many terms to sum up.
============================================================
Explanation:
We have this sequence
1, 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32, 1/64, ...
which is geometric with the following properties
a = first term = 1r = common ratio = 1/2 = 0.5Notice how we multiply each term by 1/2 to get the next term. Eg: (1/4)*(1/2) = 1/8 or (1/16)*(1/2) = 1/32.
Since r = 0.5 is between -1 and 1, i.e. -1 < r < 1 is true, this means that adding infinite terms of this form will get us to approach some finite sum which we'll call S. This is because the new terms added on get smaller and smaller.
That infinite sum is
S = a/(1-r)
S = 1/(1-0.5)
S = 1/0.5
S = 2
So if we keep going with that pattern 1+1/2+1/4+... and do so forever, then we'll reach a sum of 2. However, we cannot go on forever since it's asking when we'll reach that specific sum. In other words, your teacher wants finitely many terms to be added.
In short, we'll never actually reach the sum 2 itself. We'll just get closer and closer.
Here's a list of partial sums
1+1/2 = 1.51+1/2+1/4 = 1.751+1/2+1/4+1/8 = 1.8751+1/2+1/4+1/8+1/16 = 1.93751+1/2+1/4+1/8+1/16+1/32 = 1.968751+1/2+1/4+1/8+1/16+1/32+1/64 = 1.9843751+1/2+1/4+1/8+1/16+1/32+1/64+1/128 = 1.99218751+1/2+1/4+1/8+1/16+1/32+1/64+1/128+1/256 = 1.99609375We can see that we're getting closer to 2, but we'll never actually get there. We'd need to add infinitely many terms to get to exactly 2.
A person participates in a weekly office pool in which he has one chance in ten of winning the prize. If he participates for 5 weeks in succession, what is the probability of winning at least one prize.
The probability of winning at least one prize is 0.40951.
What is probability?Probability is the likelihood that an event will occur.
The following information can be deduced:
P = probability of winning = 1/10
q = probability of not winning = 1- (1/10) = 9/10
x = no. of winning
then, p (x ≥ 1) = 1 - p (x < 1)
= 1 - p (x=0)
= 1 - ⁵C₀ (1/10)^⁰ (9/10)^(5-0)
= 1 - (1) (1) (9/10)^5
= 1 - (9/10)^5
= 1 - 0.59049
= 0.40951
Therefore, the probability is 0.40951.

Use a linear approximation (or differentials) to estimate the given number. (Round your answer to five decimal places.) 3 217
Using a linear approximation, the estimated cube root of 217 is 6.00925.
Given that the number is,
The cube root of 217
Now, for the cube root of 217 using a linear approximation, use differentials.
So, the derivative of the function [tex]f(x) = x^{(1/3)[/tex] at a known point.
Taking the derivative of [tex]f(x) = x^{(1/3)[/tex], we get:
[tex]f'(x) = (\dfrac{1}{3} )x^{-2/3[/tex]
Now, we can choose a point near 217 to evaluate the linear approximation.
Let's use x = 216, which is a perfect cube.
Substituting x = 216 into the derivative, we get:
[tex]f'(216) = (\dfrac{1}{3} )(216)^{-2/3[/tex]
[tex]= 0.00925[/tex]
Next, use the linear approximation formula:
Δy ≈ f'(a)Δx
Since our known point is a = 216 and we want to estimate the cube root of 217,
since 217 - 216 = 1
Hence, Δx = 1
Δy ≈ f'(216)
Δx ≈ 0.00925 × 1
≈ 0.00925
Finally, add this linear approximation to the known value at the known point to get our estimate:
Estimated cube root of 217 ;
f(216) + Δy = 6 + 0.00925
= 6.00925
Therefore, the estimated cube root of 217 is 6.00925.

Assume that 300 births are randomly selected and 5 of the births are girls. Use subjective judgment to describe the number of girls as significantly high, significantly low, or neither significantly low nor significantly high.g
Answer:
Following are the response to the given choice.
Step-by-step explanation:
Please find the complete question in the attached file.
Subjective opinion = Question of opinion.
Therefore this requires only just opinion and we don't have to do any actual calculations.
Does this seem like a great number of girls, a little number of girls, or a decent number of girls to you but if 1,300 babies were born, 5 of whom were females?
This is a small number of beautiful gals, in my honest opinion. We anticipate boys and girls to be produced about the very same frequency, thus I expect some half of them to be females if there are 1 300 newborns. You should have roughly 650 girls if 50% of the infants are girls, but now we only have five. That appears to me to be considerably low. which is your own opinion.

On a map of a town, 3 cm represents 150 m. Two points in the town are 1 km apart. How far apart are the two points on the map?
Answer:
5000 km
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
3 cm represents on a map of a town=150 m
Distance between two points=1 km
We have to find the distance between two points on the map.
3 cm represents on a map of a town=150 m
1 cm represents on a map of a town=150/3 m
1 km=1000 m
1 m=100 cm
[tex]1km=1000\times 100=100000 cm[/tex]
100000 cm represents on a map of a town
=[tex]\frac{150}{3}\times 100000[/tex] m
100000 cm represents on a map of a town=5000000 m
100000 cm represents on a map of a town
=[tex]\frac{5000000}{1000} km[/tex]
100000 cm represents on a map of a town=5000 km
Hence, two points are separated by 5000 km on the map.

If you pick a card at random from a well shuffled deck, what is the probability that you get an even card or a spade
Answer:
The probability that you get an even card or a spade is P = 0.596
Step-by-step explanation:
In a deck of 52 cards, all the cards have the exact same probability of being drawn.
So, the probability of drawing an even card of a spade, will be equal to the quotient between the number of even cards and spades, and the total number of cards (52).
First, let's found the number of even cards and spades.
There are 13 spades.
For each set, the even cards are:
{2. 4, 6, 8, 10}
(not counting the queen as a "12")
Then for each set, there are 6 even cards.
(there are four sets but we already counted the 6 even cards from the spade set, so we ignore that set)
Then there are 3 sets with 6 even cards each, there are:
3*6 = 18 even cards
So we have:
13 spades + 18 even cards = 31 cards that meet the condition.
The probability is then:
P = 31/52 = 0.596
The probability that you get an even card or a spade is P = 0.596

Find the value of x if,
m∠5 = x-6, m∠4 = 2x+4, m∠2 = 2x-26
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we are given the angles ∠5 , ∠4 , ∠3 , but with one variable, "X" :)
also we are told ∠AOC is bisected by OB , meaning that ∠1 = ∠2
and the EC is perpendicular to OD , so ∠4+∠5=90°
since we are given ∠4 & ∠5, lets use that to solve for "X"
:)
90= x-6 + 2x+4
90= 3x -2

Answer:
They can buy up to 240 drinks.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = number of drinks
The price of 1 drink is 75¢ = $0.75
The price of x drinks is 0.75x
The store gives a discount of $100.
The rice of x drinks is
0.75x - 100
The total price of the drinks must be less than or equal to $80.
0.75x - 100 ≤ 80
Add 100 to both sides.
0.75x ≤ 180
Divide both sides by 0.75
x ≤ 240
Answer: They can buy up to 240 drinks.
