Answer:

The original value of the car.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 21,500 would be the a value of the function, as it is before the parentheses. The a value of an exponential function is a constant, and it is the y-intercept of that function, meaning in a real-world application, it would be where the values start at. In this case, the 21,500 is where the price of the car starts at, i.e., the original value of the car.

postnew [5]

$\frac{(m^{-\frac{4}{3}})^{\frac{1}{4}}}{m^{0}(m^{-\frac{3}{2}}n^{2})} = \frac{m^{-\frac{1}{3}}}{m^{-\frac{3}{2}}n^{2}} = \frac{m^{\frac{3}{2}}}{m^{\frac{1}{3}}n^{2}} = \frac{m^{\frac{7}{6}}}{n^{2}} = \frac{\sqrt[6]{m^{7}}}{n^{2}} = \frac{\sqrt[6]{m^{6} * m}}{n^{2}} = \frac{\sqrt[6]{m^{6}}\sqrt[6]{m}}{n^{2}} = \frac{m\sqrt[6]{m}}{n^{2}}$

In October of 2012, Apple introduced a much smaller variant of the Apple iPad, known at the iPad Mini. Weighing less than 11 oun

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

a. $f_X(x) = \dfrac{1}{3.5}8.5$

b. the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be 10 hours or less is 0.4286 which is about 42.86%

c. the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be at least 11 hours is 0.2857 which is about 28.57 %

d. the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be between 9.5 and 11.5 hours is 0.5714 which is about 57.14%

e. 86 should have a battery life of at least 9 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

Let X represent the continuous random variable with uniform distribution U (A, B) . Therefore the probability density function can now be determined as :

$f_X(x) = \dfrac{1}{B-A}A$

where A and B are the two parameters of the uniform distribution

From the question;

Assume that battery life of the iPad Mini is uniformly distributed between 8.5 and 12 hours

So; Let A = 8,5 and B = 12

Therefore; the mathematical expression for the probability density function of battery life is :

$f_X(x) = \dfrac{1}{12-8.5}8.5$

$f_X(x) = \dfrac{1}{3.5}8.5$

b. What is the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be 10 hours or less (to 4 decimals)?

The probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be 10 hours or less can be calculated as:

F(x) = P(X ≤x)

$F(x) = \dfrac{x-A}{B-A}$

$F(10) = \dfrac{10-8.5}{12-8.5}$

F(10) = 0.4286

the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be 10 hours or less is 0.4286 which is about 42.86%

c. What is the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be at least 11 hours (to 4 decimals)?

The battery life for an iPad Mini will be at least 11 hours is calculated as follows:

$P(X\geq11) = \int\limits^{12}_{11} {\dfrac{1}{3.5}} \, dx$

$P(X\geq11) = {\dfrac{1}{3.5}} (x)^{12}_{11}$

$P(X\geq11) = {\dfrac{1}{3.5}} (12-11)$

$P(X\geq11) = {\dfrac{1}{3.5}} (1)$

$P(X\geq11) = 0.2857$

the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be at least 11 hours is 0.2857 which is about 28.57 %

d. What is the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be between 9.5 and 11.5 hours (to 4 decimals)?

$P(9.5 \leq X\leq11.5) =\int\limits^{11.5}_{9.5} {\dfrac{1}{3.5}} \, dx$

$P(9.5 \leq X\leq11.5) ={\dfrac{1}{3.5}} \, (x)^{11.5}_{9.5}$

$P(9.5 \leq X\leq11.5) ={\dfrac{1}{3.5}} (11.5-9.5)$

$P(9.5 \leq X\leq11.5) ={\dfrac{1}{3.5}} (2)$

$P(9.5 \leq X\leq11.5) =0.2857* (2)$

$P(9.5 \leq X\leq11.5) =0.5714$

Hence; the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be between 9.5 and 11.5 hours is 0.5714 which is about 57.14%

e. In a shipment of 100 iPad Minis, how many should have a battery life of at least 9 hours (to nearest whole value)?

The probability that battery life of at least 9 hours is calculated as:

$P(X \geq 9) = \int\limits^{12}_{9} {\dfrac{1}{3.5}} \, dx$

$P(X \geq 9) = {\dfrac{1}{3.5}}(x)^{12}_{9}$

$P(X \geq 9) = {\dfrac{1}{3.5}}(12-9)$

$P(X \geq 9) = {\dfrac{1}{3.5}}(3)$

$P(X \geq 9) = 0.2857*}(3)$

$P(X \geq 9) = 0.8571$

NOW; The Number of iPad that should have a battery life of at least 9 hours is calculated as:

n = 100(0.8571)

n = 85.71

n ≅ 86

Thus , 86 should have a battery life of at least 9 hours

Create the quadratic function that contains the points (0,2), (1,0), and (3,10). Show all of your work for full credit.

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

y=7/3x²-13/3x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine the value of c:

y=ax²+bx+c

2=a(0)²+b(0)+c

2=c

Substitute (1,0) into the quadratic and create an equation with a and b:

y=ax²+bx+2

0=a(1)²+b(1)+2

0=a+b+2

-2=a+b

Do the same with (3,10) to get a second equation:

y=ax²+bx+2

10=a(3)²+b(3)+2

10=9a+3b+2

8=9a+3b

Set the two equations equal to each other and solve for a and b:

-2=a+b

8=9a+3b

Multiply first equation by 3 and eliminate b to find a:

-6=3a+3b

- (8=9a+3b)

_______

-14=-6a

14/6=a

7/3=a

Substitute 7/3=a into the first equation:

-2=7/3+b

-2-(7/3)=b

-13/3=b

Final equation:

y=7/3x²-13/3x+2

See the graph for a visual representation
