What is the horizontal asymptote for the above function? y=x/x^2-16y=

1 answer:

8 0

$\bf y = \cfrac{\stackrel{\textit{degree of 1}}{x^1}}{\underset{\textit{degree of 2}}{x^2-16}}$ when the degree of the denominator is greater than that of the numerator, the only horizontal asymptote occurs at y = 0.

Adam had silly putty 4 5/6 inches long. If he stretched it 2 2/3 times it's current length how long would it be?

Nikitich [7]

You multiply the 2 together 4 5/6 and 2 2/3.
4 5/6=29/6
2 2/3=8/3
you multiply the tops together then the bottoms together
29*8=232
3*6=18
232/18=116/9

A population has a mean of 200 and a standard deviation of 50. Suppose a sample of size 100 is selected and x is used to estimat

zmey [24]

Answer:

a) 0.6426 = 64.26% probability that the sample mean will be within +/- 5 of the population mean.

b) 0.9544 = 95.44% probability that the sample mean will be within +/- 10 of the population mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .
