The number of sports books is 13 books.

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

A mathematical equation is the representation of a problem by the use of variables. Often times, an equation is formed from the factors that are in a problem.

We have to represented each of the books read with an algebraic term;

Let the number of mystery books be y

Let the number of sports books be x

Total number of books = 23

We know that;

x + y = 23

but y = 10

x = 23 - 10

x = 13 books

K=1; f(x)=4x^3-2x^2+2x+4; Lower bound?
photoshop1234 [79]
Given:
f(x) = 4x^{3} - 2x^{2} + 2x + 4
and,
K = 1

We would require to do the synthetic division of the above problem in order to know whether K=1 is a lower bound or not. Let's do it!

Steps of Synthetic Division:

1. Write the coefficients of the equation, and before that write 1. Like,

1 ║ 4   -2   2   4

As you can see, the coefficients of the equation are seperated by ║.

2. Drop down the first value after ║as it is. Like:
1 ║ 4   -2   2   4
        :
----------------------
       4

3. Multiply 4 with 1 and then  place the resultant value under -2 and then add that resultant value with -2. Like
1 ║ 4   -2   2   4
        :    4
----------------------
       4   2

4. Repeat Step 3 until you're done.

1 ║ 4   -2   2   4
        :    4   2   
----------------------
       4   2    4   

1 ║ 4   -2   2   4
        :    4   2   4
----------------------
       4   2    4   8


Now every value, +4, +2, +4, +8, under the bar(---------) is positive; therefore, it means that K=1 is the upper bound, NOT lower bound.

Ans: K=1 is NOT a lower bound.

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The time between arrivals of small aircraft at a county airport is exponentially distributed with a mean of one hour. Round the answers to 3 decimal places.

(a) What is the probability that more than three aircraft arrive within an hour?

(b) If 30 separate one-hour intervals are chosen, what Is the probability that no interval contains more than three arrivals?

(c) Determine the length of an interval of time (in hours) such that the probability that no arrivals occur during the interval is 0.1.

Solution:

a) A poisson distribution is given by the formula:

P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda }\lambda^x}{x!}

λ = 1 hour

Therefore:

P(X > 3) = 1 - P(X < 3) = 1 - [P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(x = 3)]

P(X=0)=\frac{e^{-1}*1^0}{0!}=0.3679

P(X=1)=\frac{e^{-1}*1^1}{1!}=0.3679

P(X=2)=\frac{e^{-1}*1^2}{2!}=0.1839

P(X=3)=\frac{e^{-1}*1^3}{3!}=0.0613

P(X > 3) = 1 - [0.3679+0.3679 + 0.1839 + 0.0613] = 0.019

b) Assuming 30 1 hour intervals, hence:

P(X \leq 3)^{30}=[1-P(X\geq 30)]^{30}=(1-0.019)^{30}=0.5624

c) mean = 1 hour

mean = 1 / λ

1 = 1 / λ

λ = 1

The cumulative distribution function of a continuous variable is:

F(x)=1-e^{-\lambda x}

0.1=1-F(x)\\\\0.1=1-(1-e^{- x})\\\\0.1=e^{- x}\\\\-x=ln(0.1)\\\\-x = -2.3\\\\x=2.3\ hours
