Answer:

$5\frac{13}{16}$ inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find half of $11\frac{5}{8}$ inches.

First of all, we will convert our given expression as an improper fraction as:

$11\frac{5}{8}\rightarrow \frac{11*8+5}{8}=\frac{93}{8}$

Now, we will divide $\frac{93}{8}$ by 2 as:

$\frac{93}{8}\div 2$

$\frac{93}{8}\div\frac{2}{1}$

Convert division problem as multiplication problem as:

$\frac{93}{8}\times\frac{1}{2}$

$\frac{93\times 1}{8\times 2}$

$\frac{93}{16}$

$5\frac{13}{16}$

Therefore, half of $11\frac{5}{8}$ inches is $5\frac{13}{16}$ inches.

The scores on a test are normally distributed with a mean of 78 and a standard deviation of 13. Find the score that is 2 standar

Veronika [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean (m) = 78

Standard deviation (s) = 13

Score that is 2 standard deviations below the mean

Using the relation :

Zscore = (x - m) / s

2 standard deviations below the mean means a Zscore of - 2

Hence,

-2 = (x - 78) / 13

Cross multiply

-2 * 13 = x - 78

-26 = x - 78

x = - 26 + 78

x = 52

Score which is 2 standard deviations below the mean is 52

Find the Taylor series for f(x) centered at the given value of a. [Assume that f has a power series expansion. Do not show that

Helga [31]

Answer:

$\sum^\infty_{n=0} -5 (\frac{x+2}{2})^n$

Step-by-step explanation:

Rn(x) →0

f(x) = 10/x

a = -2

Taylor series for the function f at the number a is:

$f(x) = \sum^\infty_{n=0} \frac{f^{(n)}(a)}{n!} (x - a)^n$

$f(x) = f(a) + \frac{f'(a)}{1!}(x-a)+\frac{f"(a)}{2!} (x-a)^2 + ...$ ............ equation (1)

Now we will find the function f and all derivatives of the function f at a = -2

f(x) = 10/x f(-2) = 10/-2

f'(x) = -10/x² f'(-2) = -10/(-2)²

f"(x) = -10.2/x³ f"(-2) = -10.2/(-2)³

f"'(x) = -10.2.3/x⁴ f'"(-2) = -10.2.3/(-2)⁴

f""(x) = -10.2.3.4/x⁵ f""(-2) = -10.2.3.4/(-2)⁵

∴ The Taylor series for the function f at a = -4 means that we substitute the value of each function into equation (1)

So, we get $\sum^\infty_{n=0} - \frac{10(x+2)^n}{2^{n+1}}$ Or $\sum^\infty_{n=0} -5 (\frac{x+2}{2})^n$

A large container has a maximum capacity of 64 ounces. The container is filled with 8 ounces less than its maximum capacity. Ans

son4ous [18]

Answer:

The container is filled to 87.5% of the maximum capacity.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Maximum capacity of container = m = 64 ounces

Filled capacity=> as it is 8 less than maximum capacity = 64-8 = 56 ounces

The container is 56 ounces full.

To find the percentage:

$percentage = \frac{56}{64}*100\\= 0.875*100\\=87.5\%$

Hence,

The container is filled to 87.5% of the maximum capacity.

The function f is defined by f(x) = (x + 3)(x + 1).

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeroes ( = x-intercepts) are x = -3 and x = -1.

So the x -coordinate of the vertex is between x = -3 and x = -1.

The actual x-coordinate is halfway between these value: at x = -2.
