month?

How i would solve it is
1. 72.6-35=37.6
2. 37.6/.05=752
and for April you can do the same process phone bill - 35 for usage then divide the answer by .05

An article reports that 1 in 500 people carry the defective gene that causes inherited colon cancer. In a sample of 2000 individ
Tema [17]

Answer:

a) P=0.558

b) P=0.021

Step-by-step explanation:

We can model this random variable as a Poisson distribution with parameter λ=1/500*2000=4.

The approximate distribution of the number who carry this gene in a sample of 2000 individuals is:

P(x=k)=\frac{\lambda^ke^{-\lambda}}{k!} =\frac{4^ke^{-4}}{k!}

a) We can calculate that the approximate probability that between 4 and 9 (inclusive) as:

P(4\leq x\leq 9)=\sum_{k=4}^9P(k)\\\\\\ P(4)=4^{4} \cdot e^{-4}/4!=256*0.0183/24=0.195\\\\P(5)=4^{5} \cdot e^{-4}/5!=1024*0.0183/120=0.156\\\\P(6)=4^{6} \cdot e^{-4}/6!=4096*0.0183/720=0.104\\\\P(7)=4^{7} \cdot e^{-4}/7!=16384*0.0183/5040=0.06\\\\P(8)=4^{8} \cdot e^{-4}/8!=65536*0.0183/40320=0.03\\\\P(9)=4^{9} \cdot e^{-4}/9!=262144*0.0183/362880=0.013\\\\\\

P(4\leq x\leq 9)=\sum_{k=4}^9P(k)=0.195+0.156+0.104+0.060+0.030+0.013=0.558

b) The approximate probability that at least 9 carry the gene is:

P(x\geq9)=1-P(x\leq 8)\\\\\\

P(0)=4^{0} \cdot e^{-4}/0!=1*0.0183/1=0.018\\\\P(1)=4^{1} \cdot e^{-4}/1!=4*0.0183/1=0.073\\\\P(2)=4^{2} \cdot e^{-4}/2!=16*0.0183/2=0.147\\\\P(3)=4^{3} \cdot e^{-4}/3!=64*0.0183/6=0.195\\\\P(4)=4^{4} \cdot e^{-4}/4!=256*0.0183/24=0.195\\\\P(5)=4^{5} \cdot e^{-4}/5!=1024*0.0183/120=0.156\\\\P(6)=4^{6} \cdot e^{-4}/6!=4096*0.0183/720=0.104\\\\P(7)=4^{7} \cdot e^{-4}/7!=16384*0.0183/5040=0.06\\\\P(8)=4^{8} \cdot e^{-4}/8!=65536*0.0183/40320=0.03\\\\

P(x\geq9)=1-P(x\leq 8)\\\\P(x\geq9)=1-(0.018+0.073+0.147+0.195+0.195+0.156+0.104+0.060+0.030)\\\\P(x\geq9)=1-0.979=0.021

If g(x)=a x f(x+b) how is f(x) transformed to get g(x)
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Ok, we know that g(x) = a*f(x + b), we want to find all the transformations that we must apply to f(x) to construct g(x).

Let's assume at the beggining that T2(T1(f(x))) = g(x), and start appliying the transformations.

First, we have a horizontal shift.

If we want to move the graph A (A positive) units to the right, we should have:

g(x) = f(x - A)

in this case we have

g(x) = f(x + b) = f(x - (-b))

So we have a shift of -b units to the right, or b units to the left.

Second:

We have a vertical contraction/dilation.

if we have a function f(x), a compression/dilation of scale factor A is written as:

g(x) = A*f(x)

if A > 1, we have a dilation.

if 0 < A < 1, we have a contraction.

In this case the scale factor is a.

g(x) = a*f(x).

Now, applying both transformations we have:

> shift of b units to the left.

> contraction/dilation of scale factor a.

g(x) = a*f(x +b)

List five ordered pairs for the function y = 2x – 1.
Natali [406]
(1,1)
(2,3)
(0,-1)
(3,5)
(4,7)
it’s actually very simple, all you have to do is plug in whatever value you want for x and then solve the problem. once you have done that you put it in this format: (x,y)
for example, the first ordered pair that i told you: (1,1)
i got this by first deciding to use 1 as my x-value, then plugging it into the equation, so it was y=2•1-1. from there you just solve for y, which is very simple. make sure you remember order of operations though, or you could get it wrong! from that step i just put it in ordered pair format, or (x,y). this made my first ordered pair, which was (1,1). you can use the same steps for all ordered pairs you want to find. i hope this helps!

A ski lift is modeled by the function f(x) = (0.2)(–2x 3 + 23x 2 + 25x + 50), where x is the time in seconds. When it comes out
puteri [66]

Answer:

A ski lift is modeled by the function f(x) = (0.2)(–2x 3 + 23x 2 + 25x + 50), where x is the time in seconds. When it comes out of the first stop, it is now climbing toward its highest point from the ground. During which time interval will the ski lift reach a height over 50 feet above the ground?
