Bob works at a construction company. He has an equally likely chance to be assigned to work diffrent crews every day. He can be

assigned to work on crews building apartments, condominiums, or houses. If he works 18 days a month, about how many times should he expect to be assigned to the house crew?

Define the double factorial of n, denoted n!!, as follows:n!!={1⋅3⋅5⋅⋅⋅⋅(n−2)⋅n} if n is odd{2⋅4⋅6⋅⋅⋅⋅(n−2)⋅n} if n is evenand (

Answer:

Radius of convergence of power series is $\lim_{n \to \infty}\frac{a_{n}}{a_{n+1}}=\frac{1}{108}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

n!! = 1⋅3⋅5⋅⋅⋅⋅(n−2)⋅n n is odd

n!! = 2⋅4⋅6⋅⋅⋅⋅(n−2)⋅n n is even

(-1)!! = 0!! = 1

We have to find the radius of convergence of power series:

$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}[\frac{8^{n}n!(3n+3)!(2n)!!}{2^{n}[(n+9)!]^{3}(4n+3)!!}](8x+6)^{n}\\\\\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}[\frac{8^{n}n!(3n+3)!(2n)!!}{2^{n}[(n+9)!]^{3}(4n+3)!!}]2^{n}(4x+3)^{n}\\\\\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}[\frac{8^{n}n!(3n+3)!(2n)!!}{[(n+9)!]^{3}(4n+3)!!}](x+\frac{3}{4})^{n}\\$

Power series centered at x = a is:

$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}c_{n}(x-a)^{n}$

$\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}[\frac{8^{n}n!(3n+3)!(2n)!!}{2^{n}[(n+9)!]^{3}(4n+3)!!}](8x+6)^{n}\\\\\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}[\frac{8^{n}n!(3n+3)!(2n)!!}{2^{n}[(n+9)!]^{3}(4n+3)!!}]2^{n}(4x+3)^{n}\\\\\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}[\frac{8^{n}4^{n}n!(3n+3)!(2n)!!}{[(n+9)!]^{3}(4n+3)!!}](x+\frac{3}{4})^{n}\\$

$a_{n}=[\frac{8^{n}4^{n}n!(3n+3)!(2n)!!}{[(n+9)!]^{3}(4n+3)!!}]\\\\a_{n+1}=[\frac{8^{n+1}4^{n+1}n!(3(n+1)+3)!(2(n+1))!!}{[(n+1+9)!]^{3}(4(n+1)+3)!!}]\\\\a_{n+1}=[\frac{8^{n+1}4^{n+1}(n+1)!(3n+6)!(2n+2)!!}{[(n+10)!]^{3}(4n+7)!!}]$

Applying the ratio test:

$\frac{a_{n}}{a_{n+1}}=\frac{[\frac{32^{n}n!(3n+3)!(2n)!!}{[(n+9)!]^{3}(4n+3)!!}]}{[\frac{32^{n+1}(n+1)!(3n+6)!(2n+2)!!}{[(n+10)!]^{3}(4n+7)!!}]}$

$\frac{a_{n}}{a_{n+1}}=\frac{(n+10)^{3}(4n+7)(4n+5)}{32(n+1)(3n+4)(3n+5)(3n+6)+(2n+2)}$

Applying n → ∞

$\lim_{n \to \infty}\frac{a_{n}}{a_{n+1}}= \lim_{n \to \infty}\frac{(n+10)^{3}(4n+7)(4n+5)}{32(n+1)(3n+4)(3n+5)(3n+6)+(2n+2)}$

The numerator as well denominator of $\frac{a_{n}}{a_{n+1}}$ are polynomials of fifth degree with leading coefficients:

$(1^{3})(4)(4)=16\\(32)(1)(3)(3)(3)(2)=1728\\ \lim_{n \to \infty}\frac{a_{n}}{a_{n+1}}=\frac{16}{1728}=\frac{1}{108}$

The probability that a rental car will be stolen is. 4. if 3500 cars are rented, what is the approximate poisson probability tha

kozerog [31]

Using the Poisson distribution, there is a 0.8335 = 83.35% probability that 2 or fewer will be stolen.

<h3>What is the Poisson distribution?</h3>

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by:

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

The parameters are:

x is the number of successes

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

$\mu$ is the mean in the given interval.

The probability that a rental car will be stolen is 0.0004, hence, for 3500 cars, the mean is:

$\mu = 3500 \times 0.0004 = 1.4$

The probability that 2 or fewer cars will be stolen is:

$P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)$

In which:

$P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}\mu^{x}}{(x)!}$

$P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-1.4}1.4^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.2466$

$P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-1.4}1.4^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.3452$

$P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-1.4}1.4^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.2417$

Then:

$P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.2466 + 0.3452 + 0.2417 = 0.8335$

0.8335 = 83.35% probability that 2 or fewer will be stolen.

A sofa is on sale for $703 which is 24% less than the regular price what is the regular price

Firdavs [7]

Hello!

We could write this as an equation below.

0.76x=703

We divide both sides by 0.76.

x=925

Therefore, the regular price is $925.

I hope this helps!

HELP WILL GIVE 15 POINTS <br>what is the range of this function and pls explain

Nataly [62]

Answer:

$f(x)\geq -2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Range corresponds to the values of y on the y-axis. If we see the graph the minimum value of the y-coordinate is -2 and then it tends to increase from it. We do not know till where the y values will increase in the figure it shows 6 but it's still actually increasing we keep on tracing the graph but the minimum value will always remain the same which is -2 . So we can say that the range of the function is

$f(x)\geq -2\\$

Where f(x) is the function and since the values of y on the y-axis increase from -2 we can say that the function has the range of values greater than or equal to -2
