Answer:In 8 years the tree will have the same height.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Let x = the number of years when the two trees will be the same height.

For the 2ft tree, you can express its height in x years as:

2+1(x)

And for the 6ft. tree...

6+0.5(x)

Step 2:

2+x = 6+0.5x Subtract 0.5x from both sides.

2+0.5x = 6 Now subtract 2 from both sides.

0.5x = 4 Finally, divide both sides by 0.5

x = 8

kvasek [131]

Answer:

(a) 0.932

(b) 0.0653

(c) 0.032

(d) 0.316

(e) 0.251

Step-by-step explanation:

From the table with mean parameter μ = 5, we can compute the following cumulative and density probability

(a) P(X \leq 8) = 0.932 (cumulative)

(b) P(X = 8) = 0.0653 (density)

(c) P(9 \leq X) = 1 - P(X \leq 9) = 1 - 0.968 = 0.032 (cumulative)

(d) P(5 \leq X \leq 8) = P(X \leq 8) - P(X \leq 5) = 0.932 - 0.616 = 0.316 (cumulative)

(e) P(5 < X < 8) = P(X \leq 8) - P(X \leq 5) - P(X = 8) = 0.932 - 0.616 - 0.0653 = 0.251

Anarel [89]

Answer:

2,880 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Week 1: 3,000 cases

Week 2: 0.4 * 3,000 = 1,200. 1,200 + 3,000 = 4,200

Week 3: 0.4 * 4,200 = 1,680. 1,680 + 4,200 = 5,880

5,880 - 3,000 = 2,880
