S = 1 + 3 + 5 + ... + 11 + 13 + 15
S = 15 + 13 + 11 + ... + 5 + 3 + 1
==> 2S = (1 + 15) + (3 + 13) + (5 + 11) + ... + (15 + 1)
There are 8 terms in the sum, so
2S = 8 * 16 = 128
S = 128/2 = 64
Answer
The multiplicative rate of change that should be in Hal’s function = 49/50=0.98
=9.8×10⁻¹
Explanation
The investment of $10,000 decreases by 2% every year. So the following year is usually (100 - 2)=98% of the previous year. This is a geometric progression.
In this case the first term = 10000
The second term = 98% × 10000 = 9800.
The common ratio = 9800/10000=49/50
The multiplicative rate of change that should be in Hal’s function = 49/50=0.98.
The equation of the exponential rate would be;
10,000ₓ0.98ⁿ.
where n is the number years.
Hope his helps! ;)
Answer: the probability that the class length is between 50.8 and 51 min is 0.1 ≈ 10%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data;
lengths of a professor's classes has a continuous uniform distribution between 50.0 min and 52.0 min
hence, height = 1 / ( 52.0 - 50.0) = 1 / 2
now the probability that the class length is between 50.8 and 51 min = ?
P( 50.8 < X < 51 ) = base × height
= ( 51 - 50.8) × 1/2
= 0.2 × 0.5
= 0.1 ≈ 10%
therefore the probability that the class length is between 50.8 and 51 min is 0.1 ≈ 10%
The average yearly growth rate of the height of the tree was 2.2 feet per year during the 7 1/2 years.
Answer:
2x-64<108
One solution was found :
x < 86
Rearrange:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the greater than sign from both sides of the inequality :
2*x-64-(108)<0
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
Pulling out like terms :
1.1 Pull out like factors :
2x - 172 = 2 • (x - 86)
Equation at the end of step 1 :
Step 2 :
2.1 Divide both sides by 2
Solve Basic Inequality :
2.2 Add 86 to both sides
x < 86
