6 pounds, because if you have $6 then you would have 4 pounds. plus $3 more is 6 pounds.

Which graph shape represents the polar curve r = 1 + 4sin(θ)?

umka2103 [35]

Answer:

A cardioid

Step-by-step explanation:

A cardioid is a curve in the shape of a heart traced by a point on the circumference of a circle as it rolls around a fixed circle of the same radius.

The equation of vertical cardioid is $r=a$ ± $a\sin \theta$

Given the polar curve is $r=$ $1+$ 4 $\sin \theta$

This is an equation of vertical cardioid.

So, it represents a cardioid.

Evaluate the following

IRINA_888 [86]

(a) $[\frac{9}{2.6} - \frac{2.5^{2} }{2.5} ]^{2}$

Answer:

$[\frac{9}{2.6} - \frac{2.5^{2} }{2.5} ]^{2}$

= $[\frac{9}{2.6} - \frac{2.5*2.5 }{2.5} ]^{2}$

= $[\frac{9}{2.6} - \frac{2.5}{1} ]^{2}$

*canceling 2.5 in numerator and denominator*

$= [\frac{9-(2.5)(2.6)}{2.6} ]^2\\*Using L.C.M of 2.6 and 1 which comes out to be '2.6'= [\frac{9-(6.5)}{2.6} ]^2\\= [\frac{2.5}{2.6} ]^2\\*multiplying and dividing by '10'= [\frac{2.5*10}{2.6*10} ]^2\\= [\frac{25}{26} ]^2\\= \frac{25^2}{26^2}\\= \frac{625}{676}\\= 0.925$

Properties used:

Cancellation property of fractions

Least Common Multiplier(LCM)

The least or smallest common multiple of any two or more given natural numbers are termed as LCM. For example, LCM of 10, 15, and 20 is 60.

(b) $[[\frac{3x^{a}y^{b}} {-3x^{a} y^{b} } ]^{3} ] ^{2}$

Answer:

$[[\frac{3x^{a}y^{b}} {-3x^{a} y^{b} } ]^{3}] ^{2}\\$

*using $[x^{a}]^b = x^{ab}$ *

$= [\frac{3x^{3a}y^{3b}} {-3x^{3a} y^{3b} }] ^{2}$

*Again, using $[x^{a}]^b = x^{ab}$ *

$= \frac{3x^{2*3a}y^{2*3b}} {-3x^{2*3a} y^{2*3b} } \\= (-1)\frac{3x^{6a}y^{6b}} {3x^{6a} y^{6b} }\\[\tex]*taking -1 common, denominator and numerator are equal*[tex]= -(1)\frac{1}{1}\\= -1$

Property used: 'Power of a power'

We can raise a power to a power

(x^2)4=(x⋅x)⋅(x⋅x)⋅(x⋅x)⋅(x⋅x)=x^8

This is called the power of a power property and says that to find a power of a power you just have to multiply the exponents.

if you roll a fair 6-sided die 9 times, what is the probability that at least 2 of the rolls come up as a 3 or a 4?

Kay [80]

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.857 = 85.7% probability that at least 2 of the rolls come up as a 3 or a 4.

For each die, there are only two possible outcomes, either a 3 or a 4 is rolled, or it is not. The result of a roll is independent of any other roll, hence, the <em>binomial distribution</em> is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes.

n is the number of trials.

p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

In this problem:

There are 9 rolls, hence $n = 9$ .

Of the six sides, 2 are 3 or 4, hence $p = \frac{2}{6} = 0.3333$

The desired probability is:

$P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)$

In which:

$P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)$

Then

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{9,0}.(0.3333)^{0}.(0.6667)^{9} = 0.026$

$P(X = 1) = C_{9,1}.(0.3333)^{1}.(0.6667)^{8} = 0.117$

Then:

$P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.026 + 0.117 = 0.143$

$P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2) = 1 - 0.143 = 0.857$

0.857 = 85.7% probability that at least 2 of the rolls come up as a 3 or a 4.
