Answer:

The forecast for November is 235 if August's forecast was 145.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating forecast using exponential smoothing is:

F_{t} = F_{t-1}  + \alpha (A_{t-1} - F_{t-1} )

Where Ft = New month forecast

           Ft-1 = Previous month forecast

           At-1 = Previous month actual value

            α = smoothing constant

We are given F₈ = 145 (forecast for August), A₈ = 200 (Actual Value for August), α = 2, and we need to compute the forecast for November. So, We will first calculate the forecast for September then October and then November, step-by-step.

So, forecast for September is:

F₉ = F₈ + α (A₈ - F₈)

    = 145 + 2*(200-145)

    = 145 + 2*55

F₉ = 255

Then, forecast for October is:

F₁₀ = F₉ + α (A₉ - F₉)

     = 255 + 2*(220-255)

     = 255 + 2*(-35)

F₁₀ = 185

The forecast for November is:

F₁₁ = F₁₀ + α (A₁₀ - F₁₀)

    = 185 + 2*(210 - 185)

F₁₁ = 235

Erika is working on solving the exponential equation 50x = 17; however, she is not quite sure where to start. using complete sen
seropon [69]

The equation be 50x = 17 then the value of x = 17/50.

<h3>How to find the value of x?</h3>

To estimate the value of x, bring the variable to the left side and bring all the remaining values to the right side. Simplify the values to estimate the result.

Let the equation be 50x = 17

Diving both sides of the equation by 50, we get

50x/50 = 17/50

x = 17/50

Therefore, the value of x = 17/50.

The lengths of the sides of the triangle are 13cm, 14 cm, and 15 cm. Is the triangle a right triangle?
Helga [31]

Answer:

No, it is not a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the triangle was a right triangle, then the Pythagorean Theorem states that a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Let's test it on this triangle:

13^2 + 14^2 = 365, or c^2. If this is a right triangle, c should equal 15.

However, sqrt(365) = 19.1, which is not 15. So, the triangle is not a right triangle.
