Answer:

  k ≈ 1.88

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for the function to be continuous, the pieces of the function must have the same value at x=3. That is ...

  f(3) = 3(3) +k = k(3^2) -6

  15 = 8k . . . . . add 6-k, simplify

  k = 15/8 = 1.875 ≈ 1.88

To two decimal places, the value of k that makes f(x) continuous at x=3 is 1.88.

Set up your equation:
1 = 7x - 3

Add 3 to both sides:
7x = 4

Divide both sides by 7:
x = 4/7

Hope this helps!

The number of column inches of classified advertisements appearing on Mondays in a certain daily newspaper is normally distribut
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The probability there will be between 280 and 360 column inches of classified advertisement

P(280≤X≤360) = P(-2≤Z≤2) = 0.9544

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i):-</em></u>

Given that the mean  the population = 320

The standard deviation of the Population = 20

Let 'X' be the random variable in a normal distribution

Let 'X' = 280

Z = \frac{x-mean}{S.D} = \frac{280-320}{20} = -2

Let 'X' = 360

Z = \frac{x-mean}{S.D} = \frac{360-320}{20} = 2

<u><em>Step(iii):-</em></u>

The probability there will be between 280 and 360 column inches of classified advertisement

P(280≤X≤360) = P(-2≤Z≤2)

                        = P(z≤2) -P(z≤-2)

                       = P(z≤2)+P(z≤2)

                      = 2P(z≤2)

                     = 2×0.4772     ( from normal table)

                    = 0.9544

A teacher gave her class two exams; 60% of the class passed the second exam, but only 48% of the class passed both exams. What p
Dahasolnce [82]
This is an example of conditional probability because we are trying to find the probability of an event occurring GIVEN the occurrence of some other event. There is a formula for this (see image attached). 
If we follow this formula, the numerator would be the probability of (A AND B)  which in this case is "48% of the class passed BOTH exams." The denominator in the formula would be that "60% of the class passed ONLY THE SECOND exam." 
Therefore, P(A and B) = 0.48, which is 48% expressed as a decimal and P(B)= 0.60, which is 60% expressed as a decimal. Then, you can figure out the answer by dividing.
