Mathematics
1 answer:

7 0
A rational number is a number that can be written as a ratio. That means it can be written as a fraction, in which both the numerator (the number on top) and the denominator (the number on the bottom) are whole numbers. The number 8 is a rational number because it can be written as the fraction 8/1.

I need the answer ASAP
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

When squaring the number 5 (i.e 5^2 ) the answer is 25. 5^{2} is the same thing as 5 times 5. Basically with the square root, you are going backwards, so you are therefore finding the base of it all.

The number of major earthquakes in a year is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 20.8 and a standard deviation of
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

a) 51.60% probability that in a given year there will be less than 21 earthquakes.

b) 49.35% probability that in a given year there will be between 18 and 23 earthquakes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 20.8, \sigma = 4.5

a) Find the probability that in a given year there will be less than 21 earthquakes.

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 21. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{21 - 20.8}{4.5}

Z = 0.04

Z = 0.04 has a pvalue of 0.5160.

So there is a 51.60% probability that in a given year there will be less than 21 earthquakes.

b) Find the probability that in a given year there will be between 18 and 23 earthquakes.

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 23 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 18. So:

X = 23

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{23 - 20.8}{4.5}

Z = 0.71

Z = 0.71 has a pvalue of 0.7611

X = 18

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{18 - 20.8}{4.5}

Z = -0.62

Z = -0.62 has a pvalue of 0.2676

So there is a 0.7611 - 0.2676 = 0.4935 = 49.35% probability that in a given year there will be between 18 and 23 earthquakes.

How do we rewrite the equation y=-x 4
jek_recluse [69]
To rewrite as a function of x (f(x)), write the equation so that y is by itself on one side of the equal sign and an expression involving only x is on the other side.

f (x) = - x^4
