pulation after x years?
1. f(x) = 1.5(10,000)^x
2. 10,000(-1.5)^x
3. None
4. f(x) = 10,000(0.5)^x

Answer:

5. f(x) = 10,000 (1.5)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

We would have to multiply the original amount by 1.50^x because the initial amount would be 1, and 50% increase would be .5 so 1.5 and you raise it to the number of years to show the total increase.

Let's test it.

Initial:

10,000

After 1 year

10,000 + (.5*10000)

10,000 + 5000 = 15,000

After 2 years

15,000 + (.5*15000)

15,000 + 7500 = 22,500

Let's try our equation.

f(x) = 10,000 (1.5)^x

x = 2

10,000(1.5)^2

10,000(2.25) = 22,500

The same!

A banks loan officer rates applicants for credit. The ratings are normally distributed with a mean of 200 and a standard deviati
Alona [7]

Answer:

2.87%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following information:

mean (m) = 200

standard deviation (sd) = 50

sample size = n = 40

the probability that their mean is above 21.5 is determined as follows:

P (x> 21.5) = P [(x - m) / (sd / n ^ (1/2))> (21.5 - 200) / (50/40 ^ (1/2))]

P (x> 21.5) = P (z> -22.57)

this value is very strange, therefore I suggest that it is not 21.5 but 215, therefore it would be:

P (x> 215) = P [(x - m) / (sd / n ^ (1/2))> (215 - 200) / (50/40 ^ (1/2))]

P (x> 215) = P (z> 1.897)

P (x> 215) = 1 - P (z <1.897)

We look for this value in the attached table of z and we have to:

P (x> 215) = 1 - 0.9713 (attached table)

P (x> 215) =.0287

Therefore the probability is approximately 2.87%
