Determine which equation is belongs to the graph of the limacon curve below.

Mathematics

JulsSmile [24]3 years ago

Answer: Option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have functions of r(θ)

In our graph, we can see that the minimum value of r is when θ = 0°, and the maximum value is when θ = 180°.

We also know that the graph is in the square (-5, 5)x(-5, 5) and you can see that the maximum radius is almost less than 5.

Then let's analyze the options:

A) r = 3 - 2*cos(θ)

the maximum is at the right angle, but the maximum is:

r = 3 -2*(-1) = 5, so this maximum value is bigger than the one in the graph.

B) r = 3 - sin(θ)

For the sin functions, the maximum and minimum do not correspond with the values i write earlier, so we can discard this option.

C) r = 3 - cos(θ)

The maximum is: r = 3 - (-1) = 4, so this may be the correct answer.

the minimum is r = 3 - 1 = 2,

this is a possible equation for our circle.

D) r = 2 - 2*cos(θ)

Here, when θ = 0, we have: r = 2 - 2*1 = 0, but in the graph we can see that the radius is not 0 when θ = 0, so we can discard this option.

So the only option that makes sense is option C.

During a rock concert, the noise level (in decibels) in front row seats has a mean of 92 dB with a standard deviation of 9 dg_ W
rodikova [14]

Answer:

The minimum percentage of noise level readings within 8 standard deviations of the mean is 98.44%.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we do not know the shape of the distribution, we use the Chebyshev's Theorem to find the minimum percentage of a measure within k standard deviations of the mean.

This percentage is:

p = 1 - \frac{1}{k^{2}}

Within 8 standard deviations of the mean

This means that k = 8. So

p = 1 - \frac{1}{8^{2}} = 1 - \frac{1}{64} = \frac{64 - 1}{64} = \frac{63}{64} = 0.9844

The minimum percentage of noise level readings within 8 standard deviations of the mean is 98.44%.
