Answer:

(a)There are 500 integers from 1 through 1,000 are multiples of 2.

There are 111 integers from 1 through 1,000 are multiples of 9.

(b)0.611

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the set of Integers from 1 through 1000

The least multiple of 2 is 2 and the highest multiple of 2 in the interval is 1000.

To determine the number of terms, we use the formula for the nth term of an Arithmetic Progression, since 2,4,6,... is an Arithmetic Progression,

where first term, a =2, common difference, d =2

Nth term of an A.P,

U_n= a+(n-1)d\\1000=2+2(n-1)\\1000=2+2n-2\\1000=2n\\n=500

  • There are 500 integers from 1 through 1,000 are multiples of 2.

Similarly,

Given the set of Integers from 1 through 1000

The least multiple of 9 is 9 and the highest multiple of 9 in the interval is 999.

To determine the number of terms, we use the formula for the nth term of an Arithmetic Progression, since 9,18,27,... is an Arithmetic Progression,

where first term, a =9, common difference, d =9

Nth term of an A.P,

U_n= a+(n-1)d\\999=9+9(n-1)\\999=9+9n-9\\999=9n\\n=111

  • There are 111 integers from 1 through 1,000 are multiples of 9.

(b)Probability that an integer selected at random is a multiple of 2 or a multiple of 9.

There are a total of 1000 numbers between from 1 through 1,000

n(S)=1000

n(Multiples of 2)=500

n(Multiples of 9)=111

Therefore:

P(\text{Multiples of 9}) \:OR\: P(\text{Multiples of 2})=\frac{111}{1000} + \frac{500}{1000} \\=\frac{611}{1000} \\=0.611

Triple a number decreased by 14
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Since we know 14, but we don't know the other number, we use a variable. To do that, we look at the problem, then we figure out the unknown. The unknown is: A number. We know 14. Since "Triple" means 3, we can put the exponent 3 by X.

Therefore, the answer is X^3-14.

Find the critical value zα/2 that corresponds to a 98% confidence level.
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

A critical value is the point on the scale of the test statistic (z test in this case) outside which we reject the null hypothesis, and is taken from the level of significance of the test. The critical values can be obtained from the standard distribution tables for z and for this case, it is equivalent to:

critical value zα/2 at 98% confidence level = 2.326

Answer: 2.326

A line has a slope of 2. Write an equation in slope intercept form for the line that is perpendicular to this line.
notsponge [240]

Hey there!

A perpendicular line's slope to another line is always the negative reciprocal of slope.

If our line has a slope of two, we first must find the reciprocal, which is 1/2. Then, we put a negative on it.

Therefore, our equation is y=-1/2x+b.

I hope that this helps! Have a great day!
