An integer N is to be selected at random from {1, 2, ... , (10)3 } in the sense that each integer has the same probability of be

ing selected. What is the probability that N will be divisible by 3? by 5? by 7? by 15? by 105? How would your answer change if (10)3 is replaced by (lO)k as k became larger and larger?

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The variable N is to be selected at the random form which is  {1,2,.....,1000}

the total number of way that 1000 divisible by 3 = 1000/3 = 333.3

Here the favorable case = 333 ways  

The Exhaustive case = 1000 ways

Therefore, the probability that N can be divisible by 3 = 333/1000 = 0.333

Step 2:

The total number of way that 1000 divisible by 5 = 1000/5 = 200

Here the favorable case = 200 ways  

Therefore, the probability that N can be divisible by 5 = 200/1000 = 0.2

Step 4:

The total number of ways that 1000 divisible by 7 = 1000/7 = 142.85 = 143

Here the favorable case = 143 ways  

Step 5:

The total number of ways that 1000 divisible by 15 = 15/1000 = 66.6667 =67

Here the favorable case = 67 ways  

Therefore, the probability that N can be divisible by 15 = 67/1000 = 0.067

Step 7:

Similarly, the probability of N can be divided by 105 = 9.5238/1000 = 0.0095

Last step:

than, Similarly N is selected from {1,2,.....(10)^k} where the variable k is larger than the probability that N can be:

Divisible by 3 = 10^k/3/10^k = 0.33

Divisible by 5 = 1/5 = 0.2

Divisible by 7 = 1/7 = 0.413

Divisible by 15 = 1/15 = 0.0666

Divisible by 105 = 1/105 = 0.0095

Answer:

Probability of N Divisible by 3 - 0.33

Probability of N Divisible by 5 - 0.2

Probability of N Divisible by 7 - 0.413

Probability of N Divisible by 15 - 0.066

Probability of N Divisible by 105 - 0.0095

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Integer N {1,2,.....10^3}

Thus total number of ways by which 1000 is divisible by 3 i.e. 1000/3 = 333.3

Probability of N divisible by 3 {N%3 = 0 } = \frac{333.3}{1000} = 0.33

total number of ways by which 1000 is divisible by 5 i.e. 1000/5 = 200

Probability of N divisible by 5 {N%5 = 0 } = \frac{200}{1000} = 0.2

total number of ways by which 1000 is divisible by 7 i.e. 1000/7 = 142.857

Probability of N divisible by 7 {N%7 = 0 } = \frac{142.857}{1000} = 0.413

total number of ways by which 1000 is divisible by 15 i.e. 1000/15 = 66.667

Probability of N divisible by 15 {N%15 = 0 } = \frac{66.667}{1000} = 0.066

total number of ways by which 1000 is divisible by 105 i.e. 1000/105 = 9.52

Probability of N divisible by 105 {N%105 = 0 } = \frac{9.52}{1000} = 0.0095

similarly for N is selected from 1,2.....(10)^k where K is  large then the N value. Therefore effect of k will remain same as previous part.

0.5s + 1 = 7 + 4.5s<br><br> Show work, and answers please. This is for algebra 1.
ioda
0.5s + 1 = 7 + 4.5s   Subtract 4.5s from both sides
  -4s + 1 = 7              Subtract 1 from both sides
       -4s = 6              Divide both sides by -4
          s = -\frac{6}{4}   Simplify
          s = -\frac{3}{2}

Using only four 4's and any operational sign find the value of 8
torisob [31]

Answer:

The answer is 4 + 4 + 4 - 4 = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The four fours problem is one of the problems given in the book "The Man Who Calculated" by Malba Tahan, a Brazilian-born professor of mathematical sciences.

There are many complicated problems in this book made with the intention of using logic to find a value.

The 4 fours problem is based on using these numbers and using any operation to result in the numbers 1 through 10.

If f(x) = 4(3x - 5), find f-1(x)
deff fn [24]

Answer:

f^{-1}(x) =  \frac{1}{12}(x+20)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: f(x) = 4(3x - 5)

Is required to find f⁻¹(x)

f(x) = y = 4(3x - 5)

∴ y = 4 * 3x - 4 * 5

∴ y = 12x - 20 ⇒ add 20 to both sides

∴ y + 20 = 12x ⇒ divide both sides by 12

∴ \frac{1}{12} (y+20) = x

Replace the places of x and y.

∴ y=\frac{1}{12} (x+20)

∴ f^{-1}(x) =  \frac{1}{12}(x+20)
