The value of two plums and a peanut, divided by a grape and a peanut is 11

<h3>How to solve the expression?</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Peanut = 1
  • Grape = 2
  • Acorn + 3 grapes = 14
  • Acorn = 1/2 Plum

Substitute Grape = 2  in Acorn + 3 grapes = 14

Acorn + 3 *2  = 14

Acorn + 6  = 14

Subtract 6 from both sides

Acorn  = 8

Substitute Acorn  = 8 in Acorn = 1/2 Plum

8 = 1/2 Plum

Multiply both sides by 2

Plum = 16

So, we have:

Peanut = 1

Grape = 2

Acorn  = 8

Plum = 16

The value of two plums and a peanut, divided by a grape and a peanut is:

(2 plums + peanut)/(grape + peanut)

This gives

(2 * 16 + 1)/(2+ 1)

Evaluate

11

Hence, the value of two plums and a peanut, divided by a grape and a peanut is 11

Given log Subscript 3 Baseline 2 almost-equals 0. 631 and log Subscript 3 Baseline 7 almost-equals 1. 771, what is log Subscript
kari74 [83]

You can use the properties of logarithm to get to the solution.

The approximate value for given term is given by

log_3(14) \approx 2.402

<h3>What is logarithm and some of its useful properties?</h3>

When you raise a number with an exponent, there comes a result.

Lets say you get

a^b = c

Then, you can write 'b' in terms of 'a' and 'c' using logarithm as follows

b = log_a(c)

Some properties of logarithm are:

log_a(b) = log_a(c) \implies b = c\\\\\log_a(b) + log_a(c) = log_a(b \times c)\\\\log_a(b) - log_a(c) = log_a(\frac{b}{c})

<h3>Using the above properties</h3>

log_3(2) + log_3(7) = log_3(2 \times 7) = log_3(14)\\\\0.631 + 1.771  = log_3(14)\\\\log_3(14) = 2.402

Thus,

The approximate value for given term is given by

log_3(14) \approx 2.402

Suppose that, after measuring the duration of many telephone calls, a telephone company found their data was well-approximated b
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

a) 7.79%

b) 67.03%

c) Cumulative Distribution Function

P(t) = \displaystyle\int^{\infty}_{-\infty} 0.1e^{-0.1t}~dt\\\\= \displaystyle\int^{b}_{a} 0.1e^{-0.1t}~dt, ~~a\leq t \leq b

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

p(x) = 0.1 e^{-0.1x}

where x is the duration of a call, in minutes.

a) P( calls last between 2 and 3 minutes)

=\displaystyle\int^3_2 p(x)~ dx\\\\= \displaystyle\int^3_20.1e^{-0.1x}~dx\\\\=\Big[-e^{-0.1x}\Big]^3_2\\\\=-\Big[e^{-0.3}-e^{-0.2}\Big]\\\\= 0.0779\\=7.79\%

b) P(calls last 4 minutes or more)

=\displaystyle\int^{\infty}_4 p(x)~ dx\\\\= \displaystyle\int^{\infty}_40.1e^{-0.1x}~dx\\\\=\Big[-e^{-0.1x}\Big]^{\infty}_4\\\\=-\Big[e^{\infty}-e^{-0.4}\Big]\\\\=-(0- 0.6703)\\= 0.6703\\=67.03\%

c) cumulative distribution function

P(t) = \displaystyle\int^{\infty}_{-\infty} 0.1e^{-0.1t}~dt\\\\= \displaystyle\int^{b}_{a} 0.1e^{-0.1t}~dt, ~~a\leq t \leq b

The shorter leg of a 30°-60°-90° triangle is 4. How long is the hypotenuse?
Lera25 [3.4K]

For a triangle 30-60-90,

If shorter leg is x, then hypotenuse is 2x.

So, if shorter leg is 4,

then hypotenuse is 2*4 = 8.

Answer is 8.

(0.3d-1.5)/3 1/3=0.84:7/15
Anika [276]

Answer:

  d = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Perhaps you want to solve for d:

  (0.3d -1.5)/(3 1/3) = 0.84/(7/15)

Change the division by a fraction to multiplication by its inverse.

  (0.3d -1.5)·(3/10) = (0.84)·(15/7)

  0.09d -0.45 = 1.8 . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify

  d - 5 = 20 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.09

 d = 25 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 5

_____

Grouping symbols help show what is being divided by what. Especially where mixed numbers are involved, parentheses help show that the number 3 1/3 is not supposed to be interpreted as the product of 3 and 1/3.
