now, by traditional method, as "x" progresses towards the positive infinitity, it becomes 100, 10000, 10000000, 1000000000 and so on, and notice, the limit of the numerator becomes large.
BUT, notice the denominator, for the same values of "x", the denominator becomes larg"er" than the numerator on every iteration, ever becoming larger and larger, and yielding a fraction whose denominator is larger than the numerator.
as the denominator increases faster, since as the lingo goes, "reaches the limit faster than the numerator", the fraction becomes ever smaller an smaller ever going towards 0.
now, we could just use L'Hopital rule to check on that.
notice those derivatives atop and bottom, the top is static, whilst the bottom is racing away to infinity, ever going towards 0.
Answer:
Due to the higher Z-score, Demetria should be offered the job.
Step-by-step explanation:
Z-score:
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the z-score of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this question:
Whichever applicant had grade with the highest z-score should be offered the job.
Demetria got a score of 85.1; this version has a mean of 61.1 and a standard deviation of 12.
For Demetria, we have . So
Vincent got a score of 299.2; this version has a mean of 264 and a standard deviation of 22.
For Vincent, we have .
Tobias got a score of 7.26; this version has a mean of 7.1 and a standard deviation of 0.4.
For Tobias, we have .
Due to the higher Z-score, Demetria should be offered the job.
