Answer:49 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Maximum speed to reach is 183.58 mi/h

Length of course is 5 mi

acceleration rate is defined by 60mi/h in 4 sec

therefore acceleration(a) $=\frac{v-u}{t}$

$a=\frac{60\times 60\times 60}{4}$

$a=54\times 10^3 mi/h^2$

To reach a speed of 183.58mi/h with an acceleration of $54\times 10^3 mi/h^2$

Using equation of motion

v=u+at

$183.58=0+(54\times 10^3)t$

$t=\frac{183.58}{54\times 10^3}$

t=0.00339 hours

t=12.23 s reach maximum speed

To complete course it takes

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2$

$5=0+\frac{1}{2}\times 54\times 10^3 \times t^2$

t=0.01360 hour

or $t=48.98\approx 49 s$

Tom [10]

Answer:

a) p=0.2

b) probability of passing is 0.01696

c) The expected value of correct questions is 1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Since each question has 5 options, all of them equally likely, and only one correct answer, then the probability of having a correct answer is 1/5 = 0.2.

b) Let X be the number of correct answers. We will model this situation by considering X as a binomial random variable with a success probability of p=0.2 and having n=6 samples. We have the following for k=0,1,2,3,4,5,6

$P(X=k) = \binom{n}{k}p^{k}(1-p)^{n-k} = \binom{6}{k}0.2^{k}(0.8)^{6-k}$ .

Recall that $\binom{n}{k}= \frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}$ In this case, the student passes if X is at least four correct questions, then

$P(X\geq 4) = P(X=4)+P(X=5)+P(X=6)=\binom{6}{4}0.2^{4}(0.8)^{6-4}+\binom{6}{5}0.2^{5}(0.8)^{6-5}+\binom{6}{6}0.2^{6}(0.8)^{6-6}= 0.01696$

c)The expected value of a binomial random variable with parameters n and p is $E[X] = np$ . IN our case, n=6 and p =0.2. Then the expected value of correct answers is $6\cdot 0.2 = 1.2$

All of the functions shown below are either exponential growth or decay functions.

AlekseyPX

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If an exponential function is in the form of y = a(b)ˣ,

a = Initial quantity

b = Growth factor

x = Duration

Condition for exponential growth → b > 1

Condition for exponential decay → 0 < b < 1

Now we ca apply this condition in the given functions,

1). $y=3.2(1+0.45)^{2x}$

Here, (1 + 0.45) = 1.45 > 1

Therefore, It's an exponential growth.

2). $y=(0.85)^{3x}$

Here, (0.85) is between 0 and 1,

Therefore, it's an exponential decay.

3). y = (1 - 0.03)ˣ + 4

Here, (1 - 0.03) = 0.97

And 0 < 0.97 < 1

Therefore, It's an exponential decay.

4). y = 0.5(1.2)ˣ + 2

Here, 1.2 > 1

Therefore, it's an exponential growth.
