Using the model from the example above, where f(x)=10001+999e−0.6030x, estimate the number of cases of flu on day 15. Remember t

The number of cases of flu on day 15 will be 1001 flus

<h3>
Exponential functions</h3>

Exponential functions are expressed as y = ab^x

Given the expression below

$f(x)=10001+999e^{-0.6030x}$

In order to determine the number of cases of flu on day 15, we will substitute x = 15 into the expression to have:

$f(x)=10001+999e^{-0.6030(15)}\\f(x)=10001+999e^{-9.045}\\f(15) = 10001+0.11786\\f(15) \approx 10001$

Hence the number of cases of flu on day 15 will be 1001 flus

Suppose that on each play of a game, a gambler either wins 1 with probability p or loses 1 with probability 1–p (or q). The gamb

musickatia [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information,

Considering both cases when p = 0.5 and when p ≠ 0.5

the probability that the gambler will quit an overall winner is:

$P = \dfrac{1 - (\dfrac{1-p}{p} )^K}{1- (\dfrac{1-p}{p})^N } \ \ \ is \ p \neq 0.5 \ and\ K/N = \dfrac{1}{2}$

where ;

N.k = n and k = m

Hence, the probability changes to:

$P = \dfrac{1 -(\dfrac{1-p}{p})^m}{1 -(\dfrac{1-p}{p})^{m+n}}$ is p ≠ 0.5 and k/N = $\dfrac{m}{m+n}$ is P = 0.5
