You are obsessed with how many views your pictures get. On average, you get 3022 views per post and always post exactly one pict

ure per day. You’d like to have a month with 100000 or more total views. Find the approximate probability of this occurring in January if we assume view counts from day-to-day are independent.

Answer:

The approximate probability of getting 100000 views or more in January if we assume view counts from day-to-day are independent = 0.22254

Step-by-step explanation:

January has 31 days.

The average number of views per day = 3022 views per day.

In terms of hourly basis, the average number of views = 3022/24 ≈ 126 views per hour

Then we need to find the probability that the number of views in January is equal to or exceeds 100000.

100000 views in January = 100000/31 = 3225.81 ≈ 3226 views per day

On an hourly basis, 3226 views per day ≈ 135 views per hour.

So, mean = λ = 126 views per hour

x = 135 views per hour.

Using Poisson's distribution function

P(X = x) = (e^-λ)(λˣ)/x!

P(X ≥ x) = Σ (e^-λ)(λˣ)/x! (Summation From x to the end of the distribution)

But it's easier to obtain

P(X < x) = Σ (e^-λ)(λˣ)/x! (Summation From 0 to x)

P(X ≥ x) = 1 - P (X < x)

Putting λ = 126 views/hour and x = 135 views/hour in the Poisson distribution formula calculator

P(X ≥ 135) = 0.22254

Given that f(x) =<br> X + 3<br> 2 <br> a) Find f(2)<br> b) Find f'(x)<br> c) Find f"(12)
joja [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Unclear.  Did you mean f(x) = 2^(x + 3)?  If so, the parentheses are mandatory.

Assuming that f(x) = 2^(x + 3) is correct, then:

a) f(2) = 2^(2 + 3) = 2^5 = 32

b) f'(x) = 2^(x + 3)*(x + 3)' = 2^(x + 3)(1) = 2^(x + 3)

c) f"(x) = 2^(x + 3) (same as in (b)), so that:

   f"(12) = 2^15

For what values of k will the function y=6x^2-8x+k have one zero: Two zeros: No zeros
Feliz [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

consider 6x^2-8x +k

disc .=(-8)^2-4*6*k=64-24k

it has no solution if 64-2k<0

or 64<2k

or 2k>64

k>32

it has two zeros if 64-2k≥0

or 64≥ 2k

or 2k≤64

or k≤ 32

it has one zero if Disc. =0

64-2k=0

2k=64

k=32

When a sprinkler is installed in the ground, the spray of water goes up and falls in the pattern of a parabola. The height, in i
Westkost [7]

Answer:

(1) 256 inches

(2) 5 feet

(3) 400 inches

(4) 10 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) The function that gives the height in inches of the spray of water at a distance <em>x</em> from the sprinkler head is given as follows;

h(x) = 160·x - 16·x²

At x = 2 feet, we have;

h(2) = 160 × 2 - 16 × 2² = 256

Therefore, the height of the spray water at a horizontal distance of 2 feet from the sprinkler head h(2) = 256 inches

(2) The x-coordinate, x_{max}, of the maximum point of a parabola given in the form, y = a·x² + b·x + c is found using the following formula;

x_{max} = -b/(2·a)

The x-coordinate, x_{max}, of the maximum point of the given equation of the parabola, h(x) = 160·x - 16·x², (a = -16, b = 160) is therefore;

x_{max} = -160/(2 × (-16)) = 5

Therefore, the number of feet along the way, the function will reach maximum height, x_{max} = 5 feet

(3) The function, h(x) = 160·x - 16·x², will reach maximum height, h_{max}, at x = 5, therefore;

h_{max} =  h(5) = 160 × 5 - 16 × 5² = 400

The maximum height of the spray, h_{max} = 400 inches

(4) The water is at ground level where h(x) = 0, therefore;

At ground level, h(x) = 0 = 160·x - 16·x²

160·x - 16·x² = 0

∴ 16·x × (10 - x) = 0

By zero product rule, we 16·x = 0, or (10 - x)  = 0, from which we have;

x = 0, or x = 10

The water is at ground level at x = 0 and x = 10 feet, therefore, the water will hit the ground again (the second time after leaving the sprinkler head at x = 0) at x = 10 feet.
