Answer: The answer is the first explanation.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given five different options and we are to select which explanation is correct to derive the formula for a circumference of a circle.

Let 'C' be the circumference and 'd' be the diameter of a circle. Now, we will write the ratio of the circumference to the diameter as

$\dfrac{\textup{C}}{\textup{d}}.$

Also, we know that

$\dfrac{\textup{C}}{\textup{d}}=\pi.$

And diameter of a circle is twice the radius, so

$d=2r.$

Therefore,

$\dfrac{\textup{C}}{2\textup{r}}=\pi\\\\\Rightarrow \textup{C}=2\pi \textup{r}.$

This is the formula for the circumference of a circle. Since this explanation matches exactly with the first option, so the correct option is

(a). Find the relationship between the circumference and the diameter by dividing the length of the circumference and length of the diameter. Use this quotient to set up an equation to showing the ratio of the circumference over the diameter equals to π . Then rearrange the equation to solve for the circumference. Substitute 2 times the radius for the diameter.

Answer:

B 2 $\sqrt[3]{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

24 ^ 1/3

WE know that (ab) ^ c = a^ c * b*c

24 ^ 1/3 = 8^1/3 * 3 ^1/3

= 2 * 3 ^1/3

Suppose a simple random sample of size nequals36 is obtained from a population with mu equals 74 and sigma equals 6. (a) Descri

OlgaM077 [116]

Part a)

The simple random sample of size n=36 is obtained from a population with

$\mu = 74$

and

$\sigma = 6$

The sampling distribution of the sample means has a mean that is equal to mean of the population the sample has been drawn from.

Therefore the sampling distribution has a mean of

$\mu = 74$

The standard error of the means becomes the standard deviation of the sampling distribution.

$\sigma_ { \bar X } = \frac{ \sigma}{ \sqrt{n} } \\ \sigma_ { \bar X } = \frac{ 6}{ \sqrt{36} } = 1$

Part b) We want to find

$P(\bar X \:>\:75.9)$

We need to convert to z-score.

$P(\bar X \:>\:75.9) = P(z \:>\: \frac{75.9 - 74}{1} ) \\ = P(z \:>\: \frac{75.9 - 74}{1} ) \\ = P(z \:>\: 1.9) \\ = 0.0287$

Part c)

We want to find

$P(\bar X \: < \:71.95)$

We convert to z-score and use the normal distribution table to find the corresponding area.

$P(\bar X \: < \:71.95) = P(z \: < \: \frac{71.9 5- 74}{1} ) \\ = P(z \: < \: \frac{71.9 5- 74}{1} ) \\ = P(z \: < \: - 2.05) \\ = 0.0202$

Part d)

We want to find :

$P(73\:$

We convert to z-scores and again use the standard normal distribution table.

$P( \frac{73 - 74}{1} \:< \: z$

(1 point) In this problem we show that the function f(x,y)=7x−yx+y f(x,y)=7x−yx+y does not have a limit as (x,y)→(0,0)(x,y)→(0,0

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

f(x, y)=7x−yx+y

We want to show that the limit doesn't exist as (x, y)→(0,0).

Limits typically fail to exist for one of four reasons:

1. The one-sided limits are not equal

2. The function doesn't approach a finite value

3. The function doesn't approach a particular value

4. The x - value is approaching the endpoint of a closed interval

a. Considering the case that y=3x

lim(x,y)→(0,0) 7x−yx+y

Since y=3x

lim(x,3x)→(0,0) 7x−3x(x)+3x

lim(x,3x)→(0,0) 10x−3x²

Therefore,

lim(x,3x)→(0,0) 10x−3x² = 0-0=0

b. Let also consider at y=4x

lim(x,y)→(0,0) 7x−yx+y

Since y=4x

lim(x,4x)→(0,0) 7x−4x(x)+4x

lim(x,4x)→(0,0) 11x−4x²

Therefore,

lim(x,4x)→(0,0) 11x−4x² = 0-0=0

c. Let also consider it generally at y=mx

lim(x,y)→(0,0) 7x−yx+y

Since y=mx

lim(x,mx)→(0,0) 7x−mx(x)+mx

lim(x, mx)→(0,0) (7+m)x−mx²

Therefore,

lim(x, mx)→(0,0) (7+m)x−mx² = 0-0=0

But the limit of the given function exist.

So let me assume the function is wrong and the question meant.

f(x, y)= (7x−y) / (x+y)

So, let analyze again

a. Considering the case that y=3x

lim(x,y)→(0,0) (7x−y)/(x+y)

Since y=3x

lim(x,3x)→(0,0) (7x−3x)/(x+3x)

lim(x,3x)→(0,0) 4x/4x

lim(x,3x)→(0,0) 1

Therefore,

lim(x,3x)→(0,0) 1= 1

So the limit is 1

b. Let also consider at y=4x

lim(x,y)→(0,0) (7x−y)/(x+y)

Since y=4x

lim(x,4x)→(0,0) (7x−4x)/(x+4x)

lim(x,4x)→(0,0) 3x/5x

lim(x,4x)→(0,0) 3/5

Therefore,

lim(x,4x)→(0,0) 3/5 = 3/5

So the limit is 3/5

This show that the limit does not exit.

Since one of the condition given above is met, then the limit does not exist. i.e. The function doesn't approach a particular value

c. Let also consider it generally at y=mx

lim(x,y)→(0,0) (7x−y)/(x+y)

Since y=mx

lim(x,mx)→(0,0) (7x−mx)/(x+mx)

lim(x,mx)→(0,0) (7-m)x/(1+m)x

lim(x, mx)→(0,0) (7-m)/(1+m)

Therefore,

lim(x, mx)→(0,0) (7-m)/(1+m) = (7m)/(1+m)

Then, the limit is (7-m)/(1+m)

So the limit doesn't not have a specific value, it depends on the value of m, so the limit doesn't exist.
