Answer:

option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

average rate of change in steel production over the eight days=-0.15 tons per day

Step-by-step explanation:

The production rate of a steel factory is declining due to old machinery. Over the last eight days production has dropped by 1.2 tons.

Production is dropped by 1.2 tons, so its negative

Average rate of change = Change in production / number of days

Average rate of change = -1.2/ 8= -0.15

so sorry -0.15

A lake contains 4 distinct types of fish. Suppose that each fish caught is equally likely to be any one of these types. Let Y de

gregori [183]

a= μ-3.16*σ , b= μ+3.16*σ if each fish caught is equally likely to be any one of these 4 distinct types.

<h3>What is meant by Chebyshev inequality?</h3>

Chebyshev's inequality is a probability theory that ensures that, over a vast range of probability distributions, no more than a particular proportion of values would be present within a selected limits or range as from mean. In other words, only a certain fish caught will be discovered within a given range of the distribution's mean.

The formula for which no more than a particular number of values can exceed is 1/K2; in other words, 1/K2 of a distribution's values can be more than or equal to K standard deviations away from the distribution's mean. Furthermore, it asserts that 1-(1/K2) of a distribution's values must be within, but not include, K standard deviations of the distribution's mean.

How to solve?

from Chebyshev's inequality for Y

P(| Y - μ|≤ k*σ ) ≥ 1-1/k²

where

Y = the number of fish that need be caught to obtain at least one of each type

μ = expected value of Y

σ = standard deviation of Y

P(| Y - μ|≤ k*σ ) = probability that Y is within k standard deviations from the mean

k= parameter

thus for

P(| Y - μ|≤ k*σ ) ≥ 1-1/k²

P{a≤Y≤b} ≥ 0.90 → 1-1/k² = 0.90 → k = 3.16

then

P(μ-k*σ≤ Y ≤ μ+k*σ ) ≥ 0.90

using one-sided Chebyshev inequality (Cantelli's inequality)

P(Y- μ≥ λ) ≥ 1- σ²/(σ²+λ²)

P{Y≥b} ≥ 0.90 → 1- σ²/(σ²+λ²)= 1- 1/(1+(λ/σ)²)=0.90 → 3= λ/σ → λ= 3*σ

then for

P(Y≥ μ+3*σ ) ≥ 0.90

Find all solutions to the equation:

crimeas [40]

Let z = sin(x). This means z^2 = (sin(x))^2 = sin^2(x). This allows us to go from the equation you're given to this equation: 7z^2 - 14z + 2 = -5

That turns into 7z^2 - 14z + 7 = 0 after adding 5 to both sides. Use the quadratic formula to solve for z. The only solution is z = 1 (see attached image). Since we made z = sin(x), this means sin(x) = 1. All solutions to this equation will be in the form x = (pi/2) + 2pi*n, which is the radian form of the solution set. If you need the degree form, then it would be x = 90 + 360*n

The 2pi*n (or 360*n) part ensures we get every angle coterminal to pi/2 radians (90 degrees), which captures the entire solution set.

Note: The variable n can be any integer.
