You multiply by -5 to find any next term. so next two are 500 then -2500

Answer:

$\lim _{x\to 2}\:\frac{x-2}{x^2-2}\\\\ \lim _{x\to 11}\:\frac{x^2+6x-187}{x^2+3x-154}\\\\ \lim _{x\to \frac{5}{2}}\left\frac{2x^2+x-15}{2x-5}\right$

Step-by-step explanation:

a) $\lim _{x\to 3}\:\frac{x^2-10x+21}{x^2+4x-21}=\lim \:_{x\to \:3}\:\frac{\left(x-7\right)\left(x-3\right)}{\left(x+7\right)\left(x-3\right)}=\lim \:_{x\to \:3}\:\frac{x-7}{x+7}=\frac{3-7}{3+7}=-\frac{4}{10}=-\frac{2}{5}$

b) $\lim _{x\to -\frac{3}{2}}\left(\frac{2x^2-5x-12}{2x+3}\right)=\lim \:_{x\to -\frac{3}{2}}\:\frac{\left(2x+3\right)\left(x-4\right)}{\left(2x+3\right)}=\lim \:\:_{x\to \:-\frac{3}{2}}\:\left(x-4\right)=-\frac{3}{2}-4\\ \\ \lim _{x\to -\frac{3}{2}}\left(\frac{2x^2-5x-12}{2x+3}\right)=-\frac{11}{2}$

c) $\lim _{x\to 2}\:\frac{x-2}{x^2-2}=\frac{2-2}{\left(2\right)^2-2}=\frac{0}{4-2}=0$

d) $\lim _{x\to 11}\:\frac{x^2+6x-187}{x^2+3x-154}=\lim _{x\to 11}\:\frac{\left(x-11\right)\left(x+17\right)}{\left(x-11\right)\left(x+14\right)}=\lim _{x\to 11}\:\frac{\left(x+17\right)}{\left(x+14\right)}=\frac{11+17}{11+14}=\frac{28}{25}$

e) $\lim _{x\to 3}\:\frac{x^2-8x+15}{x-3}=\lim \:_{x\to \:3}\:\frac{\left(x-3\right)\left(x-5\right)}{x-3}=\lim _{x\to 3}\left(x-5\right)=3-5=-2$

f) $\lim _{x\to \frac{5}{2}}\left(\frac{2x^2+x-15}{2x-5}\right)=\lim \:_{x\to \:\frac{5}{2}}\frac{\left(2x-5\right)\left(x+3\right)}{2x-5}=\lim \:\:_{x\to \:\:\frac{5}{2}}\left(x+3\right)=\frac{5}{2}+3=\frac{11}{2}$

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

a) P(X<50)=0.9827

b) P(X>47)=0.4321

c) P(-1.5<z<1.5)=0.8664

Step-by-step explanation:

We will calculate the probability based on a random sample of one moped out of the population, normally distributed with mean 46.7 and standard deviation 1.75.

a) This means we have to calculate P(x<50).

We will calculate the z-score and then calculate the probability accordign to the standard normal distribution:

$z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{50-46.7}{1.75}=\dfrac{3.7}{1.75}=2.114\\\\\\P(X$

b) We have to calculatee P(x>47).

We will calculate the z-score and then calculate the probability accordign to the standard normal distribution:

$z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{47-46.7}{1.75}=\dfrac{0.3}{1.75}=0.171\\\\\\P(X>47)=P(z>0.171)=0.4321$

c) If the value differs 1.5 standard deviations from the mean value, we have a z-score of z=1.5

$z=\dfrac{(\mu+1.5\sigma)-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{1.5\sigma}{\sigma}=1.5$

So the probability that maximum speed differs from the mean value by at most 1.5 standard deviations is P(-1.5<z<1.5):

$P(-1.5$
