If n is an integer, which conjecture is not true about 2n– 1? A. 2n– 1 is odd if n is positive. B. 2n– 1 is always even. C. 2n–

B.



Let's simply look at each conjecture and determine if it's true or false.



A. 2n– 1 is odd if n is positive: Since n is an integer, 2n will always be even. And an even number minus 1 is always odd. Doesn't matter if n is positive or not. So this conjecture is true.



B. 2n– 1 is always even: Once again, 2n will always be even. So 2n-1 will always be odd. This conjecture is false.



C. 2n– 1 is odd if n is even: 2n is always even, so 2n-1 will always be odd, regardless of what n is. So this conjecture is true.



D. 2n– 1 is always odd: 2n will always be even. So 2n-1 will always be odd. Once again, this conjecture is true.



Of the 4 conjectures above, only conjecture B is false. So the answer is B.

If ​f(x)=x^2- 4 and ​g(x)=x^2 plus 2 x​,
gregori [183]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{(f-g)\left(-\dfrac{1}{3}\right)=-3\dfrac{1}{3}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{We have}:\\\\f(x)=x^2-4\ \text{and}\ g(x)=x^2+2x\\\\(f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)\\\\\text{therefore}\\\\(f-g)(x)=(x^2-4)-(x^2+2x)=x^2-4-x^2-2x\\\\=(x^2-x^2)-2x-4=-2x-4\\\\(f-g)\left(-\dfrac{1}{3}\right)\to\text{put}\ x=-\dfrac{1}{3}\ \text{to the equation of the function}\ (f-g)(x):\\\\(f-g)\left(-\dfrac{1}{3}\right)=-2\left(-\dfrac{1}{3}\right)-4=\dfrac{2}{3}-4=-3\dfrac{1}{3}

A machine that cuts corks for wine bottles operates in such a way that the distribution of the diameter of the corks produced is
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

A. P(x<3.85 or x>4.15)= P(x<3.85)+P(x>4.15) = 0.1336

Step-by-step explanation:

Working with an ordinary Normal Distribution of probability and trying to find the probabilities asked in it could be difficult, because there´s no easy method to find probabilities in a generic Normal Distribution (with mean μ=4 and STD σ=0.1). The recommended approach to this question is to use a process called "Normalize", this process let us translate the problem of any Normal Distribution to a Standard Normal Distribution (μ=0 and σ=1) where there´s easier ways to find probabilities in there. The "Normalization" goes as follows:

Suppose you want to know P(x<a) of the Normal Distribution you are working with:

P(x<a)=P( (x-μ)/σ < (a-μ)/σ )=P(z<b)   ( b=(a-μ)/σ )

Where μ is the mean and σ is the STD of your Normal Distribution. Notice P(z<b) now it´s a probability in a Standard Normal Distribution, now we can find it using the available method to do so. My favorite is a chart (It´s attached to this answer) that contains a lot of probabilities in a Standard Normal Distribution. Let´s solve this as an example

A. We want to find the probability of the cork being defective (P(x<3.85) + P(x>4.15)). Now we find those separated and, then, add them for our answer.

Let´s begin with P(x<3.85), we start by normalizing that probability:

P(x<3.85)= P( (x-μ)/σ < (3.85-4)/0.1 )= P(z<-1.5)

And now it´s time to use the chart, it works like this: If you want P(z<c) and the decimal expansion of c=a.bd... , then:

P(z<c)=(a.b , d)

Where (a.b , d) are the coordinates of the probability in the chart. Keep in mind that will only work with "<" (It won´t work directly with P(z>c)) and we will do some extra work in those cases.

P(z<-1.5) is in the coordinates (-1.5 , 0)

P(z<-1.5)= 0.0668

P(x<3.85)= 0.0668

Now we are looking for P(x>4.15), let´s Normalize it too:

P(x>4.15)=P( (x-μ)/σ < (4.15-4)/0.1 )=P(z>1.5)

But remember the chart only work with "<", so we need to use a property of probability:

P(z>1.5)= 1 - P(z<1.5)

Using the chart:

P(z<1.5)=0.9332                             (1.5 , 0)

P(z>1.5)= 1 - 0.9332

P(z>1.5)= 0.0668

P(x>4.15)= 0.0668

And our final answer will be:

P(x<3.85 or x>4.15)= P(x<3.85)+P(x>4.15) = 0.1336

Find the average rate of change for f(x) = x2 + 9x + 18 from x = −10 to x = 10. A) 3 B) 7 C) 9 D) 11
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of f(x) in the closed interval [ a, b ] is

\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

Here [ a, b ] = [ - 10, 10 ], thus

f(b) = f(10) = 10² + 9(10) + 18 = 100 + 90 + 18 = 208

f(a) = f(- 10) = (- 10)² + 9(- 10) + 18 = 100 - 90 + 18 = 28, thus

average rate of change = \frac{208-28}{10-(-10)} = \frac{180}{20} = 9
