Answer:

The fourth term of the expansion is -220 * x^9 * y^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Question:

Find the fourth term in (x-y)^12

Solution:

Notation: "n choose k", or combination of k objects from n objects,

C(n,k) = n! / ( k! (n-k)! )

For example, C(12,4) = 12! / (4! 8!) = 495

Using the binomial expansion formula

(a+b)^n

= C(n,0)a^n + C(n,1)a^(n-1)b + C(n,2)a^(n-2)b^2 + C(n,3)a^(n-3)b^3 + C(n,4)a^(n-4)b^4 +....+C(n,n)b^n

For (x-y)^12, n=12, k=3, a=x, b=-y, and the fourth term is

C(n,3)a^(n-3)b^3

=C(12,3) * x^(12-3) * (-y)^(3)

= 220*x^9*(-y)^3

= -220 * x^9 * y^3

faust18 [17]

Answer:

0.2196

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Mean = 4.56 million visitors per day

Standard deviation = 820,000 visitors per day

According to the given situation the calculation of probability is shown below:-

Here we will find the value of P (3 ≤ X ≤ 4)  

P 93\leq X\leq 4)=P(X\leq 4) - P(X\leq 3)

\\=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}\leq  \frac{4-4.56}{0.82})-P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}\leq  \frac{3-4.56}{0.82})

\\=P(Z\leq -0.683)-P(Z\leq -1.9024

= 0.2483 - 0.0287

= 0.2196

Therefore the probability that the web site has between 3 million and 4 million visitors in a single day is 0.2196

if the input value is negative, is the output value of f(z)=-4z+12 always positive or always negative?
expeople1 [14]
If the input value is negative, the output value is always positive.  We know this because the negative sign before the 4z will always reverse the negativity of the number that is plugged in.
