Answer:

  11.51

Step-by-step explanation:

In general, a calculator is required to evaluate the irrational sum ...

  π + √70

<h3>Calculator result</h3>

The result from a readily-available online calculator is shown in the attachment.

  π + √70 ≈ 11.51

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

You have probably memorized pi to several digits: 3.1416. To obtain the required estimate means you need to approximate √70 to about the same level of precision.

For a number n = a² +b, the square root can be approximated by the continued fraction ...

  √n ≈ a +b/(2a +b/(2a +...))

Effectively, the root (r) can be iterated from the recursive formula ...

  r' = a +b/(a +r)

For √70, we have 70 = 8² +6   ⇒   a=8, b=6

If the initial approximation of the root is r0≈a=8, then a couple of iterations gives ...

  r1 = 8 + 6/(8 +r0) = 8 + 6/(8 +8) = 8 3/8

  r2 = 8 + 6/(8 +r1) = 8 +6/(8 +8 3/8) = 8 48/131

This has sufficient accuracy for the purpose. The decimal equivalent of the sum then becomes ...

  3.1416 +8.3664 = 11.5080 ≈ 11.51

What is the probability that the web site has between 3 million and 4 million visitors in a single day? If needed, round your an
faust18 [17]

Answer:

0.2196

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Mean = 4.56 million visitors per day

Standard deviation = 820,000 visitors per day

According to the given situation the calculation of probability is shown below:-

Here we will find the value of P (3 ≤ X ≤ 4)  

P 93\leq X\leq 4)=P(X\leq 4) - P(X\leq 3)

\\=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}\leq  \frac{4-4.56}{0.82})-P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}\leq  \frac{3-4.56}{0.82})

\\=P(Z\leq -0.683)-P(Z\leq -1.9024

= 0.2483 - 0.0287

= 0.2196

Therefore the probability that the web site has between 3 million and 4 million visitors in a single day is 0.2196
