consider a population of voters. suppose that that there are n=1000 voters in the population, 30% of whom favor jones. identify

the event favors jones as a success s. it is evident that the probability of s on trial 1 is 0.30. consider the event b that s occurs on the second trial. then b can occur two ways: the first two trials are both successes or the first trial is a failure and the second is a success. show that p(b) = 0.3

Answer:

P(B)=0.30

Step-by-step explanation:

Out of 1000 Voters, 30% favor Jones.

Event S=Favors Jones on First Trial

Event B=S occurs on Second Trial

P(S)=0.30

P(S')=1-0.30=0.70

Event B could occur in two ways

  1. The first two trials are a success
  2. The first trial is a failure and the second trial is a success.

Therefore,

P(B)=P(SS)+P(S'S)

=(0.3X0.3)+(0.7X0.3)

=0.09+0.21

=0.3

Therefore, the probability of event B(that event S occurs on the second trial), P(B)=0.30.

Answer:

v(h) represents the volume of the water (ft³) in the pool at h hours

h is the number of hours

When h increased v(h) decreased

Step-by-step explanation:

- A swimming pool has about 603 cubic feet of water

∴ The volume of the water in the pool initially is 603 feet³

- The pool liner has a small hole and is leaking at a rate of 15  cubic

   feet each hour

∴ The rate of decreasing of the volume of the water in the pool is

   15 feet³ per hour

- The volume of the the water v at a time h hour can represented by

  a linear function v(h)

∴ v(h) = -15 h + 603 , where v(h) is the volume of the water in the

   pool in cubic feet at h hour

- Let us put an example to understand the relation between v(h)

  and h

- Assume that h = 0

∵ h = 0

∴ v(0) = -15(0) + 603

∴ v(0) = 603 ft³ ⇒ The volume of the water at the beginning

- Assume that h = 2 hours, that means we need to know the volume

  of the water after two hours

∵ h = 2 hours

∴ v(2) = -15(2) + 603

∴ v(2) = -30 + 603 = 573 ft³

∵ h increased from 0 to 2

∴ v(t) decreased from 603 ft³ to 573 ft³

∴ The volume decreased when the number of hours increased

* v(h) represents the volume of the water (ft³) in the pool at h hours

* h is the number of hours

* When h increased v(h) decreased

Andrea conducts a science experiment and observes that the height of a plant depends on the amount of sunlight it receives. The
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

f(h) = 0.004s + 37

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct representation of the height of the plant is;

          f(h) = 0.004s + 37

Given parameters;

  Height of plant  = 37cm

  Rate of growth  = 0.004cm/hr

  Number of hours of sunlight  = s

To solve this problem, the height of the plant is directly dependent on the amount of sunlight;

     f(h) signifies that height is a function

The height of the plant is 37cm;

         f(h) = 37

The plant grows at a rate of 0.004cm/hr;  number of hours of sunlight is s;

       0.004s

Therefore;

  f(h) = 37 + 0.004s
