Mathematics
1 answer:
pishuonlain [190]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:(by-15)÷a

Step-by-step explanation:

ax+5=by-10

Subtract 5 from both sides

ax+5-5=by-10-5

ax=by-15

Divide both sides by a

ax÷a=(by-15)÷a

x=(by-15)÷a

A movie cost $3,254,107 to produce.What digit is in the hundred thousands place?
nata0808 [166]

The digit that we have is 3,254,107.

To find out what digits are there at hundred and thousands place we need to find out the digits at the respective places.

From the given digit we can see that (we start counting the places from the right i.e 7)

At units place we have 7

At tens place we have 0

At hundreds place we have 1

At thousands place we have 4

So, we have '1' at hundreds place and we have '4' at thousands place.

Let X equal the number of flips of a fair coin that are required to observe
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

(a) I attached a photo with the diagram.

(b) f(x) = \big( \frac{1}{2} \big)^{x-1}

(c) 1/4

(d) 4

(e) k^2/2

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) I attached a photo with the diagram.

(b) The easiest way to think about this part is in terms of combinatorics. Think about it like this.

To begin with, look at the three each level of the three represents a possible outcome of throwing the coin n-times. If you throw the coin 3 times at the end in total there are 8 possible outcomes. But The favorable outcomes are just 2.

 1  - Your first outcome is HEADS and all the others are different except the last one.

 2  - Your first outcome is TAILS and all the others are different except the last one.

Therefore the probability of the event is

f(x) = P(X=x) = \frac{2}{2^x}  = \frac{1}{2^{x-1}} = \big( \frac{1}{2} \big)^{x-1}

(c)

P(X = 0) = 0 because it is not possible to have two consecutive tails or heads.

E(X > 4) = 1 - P(X \leq 3) = 1 - ( P(X = 0 ) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3))\\= 1 - ( \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{4} ) = \frac{1}{4}

(d)

Remember that this is a geometric distribution therefore

E[X] = p/(1-p), in this case  p = 1/2 so E[X] = 1 and

E[X+1]^2 = ( E[X] +1 )^2  = (1+1)^2 = 2^2 = 4

Also

(e)

This is a geometric distribution so its variance is

Var(X) = \frac{1-p}{p^2} = 1/2 / 1/4 = 1/2

And using properties of variance

Var(kX - k ) = Var(kX) = k^2 var(X) = k^2 /2

The explicit formula for a sequence is
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n = 21, and evaluate the expression.

a_n = -2 + \dfrac{3}{2}(n - 1)

a_{21} = -2 + \dfrac{3}{2}(21 - 1)

a_{21} = -2 + \dfrac{3}{2}(20)

a_{21} = -2 + \dfrac{3}{1}(10)

a_{21} = -2 + 30

a_{21} = 28

Consider the equation of parabola y = 5x - 30x + 45.
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

(3, 0 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a parabola in standard form

y = ax² + bx + c (a ≠ 0 )

Then the x- coordinate of the vertex is

x_{vertex} = - \frac{b}{2a}

y = 5x² - 30x + 45 ← is in standard form

with a = 5, b = - 30 , then

x_{vertex} = - \frac{-30}{10} = 3

Substitute x = 3 into the function for corresponding value of y

y = 5(3)² - 30(3) + 45 = 45 - 90 + 45 = 0

vertex = (3, 0 )
