If she starts with $8000, she has only $7000 to go.This is reduced by $850 per month.
$7000 - $850x

Please help me with the below question.

VMariaS [17]

By letting

$y = \displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^\infty c_n x^{n+r}$

we get derivatives

$y' = \displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^\infty (n+r) c_n x^{n+r-1}$

$y'' = \displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^\infty (n+r) (n+r-1) c_n x^{n+r-2}$

a) Substitute these into the differential equation. After a lot of simplification, the equation reduces to

$5r(r-1) c_0 x^{r-1} + \displaystyle \sum_{n=1}^\infty \bigg( (n+r+1) c_n + (n + r + 1) (5n + 5r + 1) c_{n+1} \bigg) x^{n+r} = 0$

Examine the lowest degree term $\left(x^{r-1}\right)$ , which gives rise to the indicial equation,

$5r (r - 1) + r = 0 \implies 5r^2 - 4r = r (5r - 4) = 0$

with roots at r = 0 and r = 4/5.

b) The recurrence for the coefficients $c_k$ is

$(k+r+1) c_k + (k + r + 1) (5k + 5r + 1) c_{k+1} = 0 \implies c_{k+1} = -\dfrac{c_k}{5k+5r+1}$

so that with r = 4/5, the coefficients are governed by

$c_{k+1} = -\dfrac{c_k}{5k+5} \implies \boxed{g(k) = -\dfrac1{5k+5}}$

c) Starting with $c_0=1$ , we find

$c_1 = -\dfrac{c_0}5 = -\dfrac15$

$c_2 = -\dfrac{c_1}{10} = \dfrac1{50}$

so that the first three terms of the solution are

$\displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^2 c_n x^{n + 4/5} = \boxed{x^{4/5} - \dfrac15 x^{9/5} + \frac1{50} x^{13/5}}$

assume that women's heights are normally distributed with a mean of 63.6 inches and a standard deviation of 2.5 inches. find the

drek231 [11]

Answer:

65.3658 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the height of a woman randomly choosen. We know tha X have a mean of 63.6 inches and a standard deviation of 2.5 inches. For an x value, the related z-score is given by z = (x-63.6)/2.5. We are looking for a value $x_{0}$ such that $P(X < x_{0}) = 0.76$ , but, $0.76 = P(X < x_{0}) = P((X-63.6)/2.5 < (x_{0}-63.6)/2.5) = P(Z < (x_{0}-63.6)/2.5)$ , i.e., $(x_{0}-63.6)/2.5$ is the 76th percentile of the standard normal distribution. So, $(x_{0}-63.6)/2.5 = 0.7063$ , $x_{0} =63.6+(2.5)(0.7063) = 65.3658$ . Therefore, the height of a woman who is at the 76th percentile is 65.3658 inches.
