Answer:

A. The ordered pair (5, 3.5) represents 5 lbs. of strawberries cost $3.50.

B. The cost per pound of strawberries is shown at (1, 0.7).

C. The relationship shown in the graph is a direct variation because as the pounds of strawberries increase, the cost also increases.

Explanation:

A. The coordinate is in (x,y). The x-axis represents the pound of strawberries and the y-axis represents the cost of the strawberries.

B. The cost for one pound of strawberries can be calculated to find the exact value of y (cost) when x is 1. The graph shows 5 lbs. of strawberries cost $3.50 so divide $3.50 by 5 lbs. to find the cost per pound of strawberries. 3.5 ÷ 5 = 0.7. On the graph, the cost for one pound of strawberries is at (1, 0.7)

C. A direct variation in a graph is shown when both x and y increase or decrease together. In this case, as the pounds of strawberries increase, the cost of the strawberries also increases.

Suppose that you drop a ball from a window 50 metres above the ground. The ball bounces to 50% of its previous height with each
stich3 [128]

We have been given that  you drop a ball from a window 50 metres above the ground. The ball bounces to 50% of its previous height with each bounce. We are asked to find the total distance traveled by up and down from the time it was dropped from the window until the 25th bounce.            

We will use sum of geometric sequence formula to solve our given problem.

S_n=\frac{a\cdot(1-r^n)}{1-r}, where,

a = First term of sequence,

r = Common ratio,

n = Number of terms.

For our given problem a=50, r=50\%=\frac{50}{100}=0.5 and n=25.

S_{25}=\frac{50\cdot(1-(0.5)^{25})}{1-0.5}

S_{25}=\frac{50\cdot(1-0.0000000298023224)}{0.5}

S_{25}=\frac{50\cdot(0.9999999701976776)}{0.5}

S_{25}=100\cdot(0.9999999701976776)

S_{25}=99.99999701976776\approx 100

Therefore, the ball will travel 100 meters and option B is the correct choice.

The arrivals of clients at a service firm in Santa Clara is a random variable from Poisson distribution with rate 2 arrivals per
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

1.76% probability that in one hour more than 5 clients arrive

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

\mu is the mean in the given time interval.

The arrivals of clients at a service firm in Santa Clara is a random variable from Poisson distribution with rate 2 arrivals per hour.

This means that \mu = 2

What is the probability that in one hour more than 5 clients arrive

Either 5 or less clients arrive, or more than 5 do. The sum of the probabilities of these events is decimal 1. So

P(X \leq 5) + P(X > 5) = 1

We want P(X > 5). So

P(X > 5) = 1 - P(X \leq 5)

In which

P(X \leq 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5)

P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}

P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.1353

P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.2707

P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.2707

P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.1804

P(X = 4) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{4}}{(4)!} = 0.0902

P(X = 5) = \frac{e^{-2}*2^{5}}{(5)!} = 0.0361

P(X \leq 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) = 0.1353 + 0.2702 + 0.2702 + 0.1804 + 0.0902 + 0.0361 = 0.9824

P(X > 5) = 1 - P(X \leq 5) = 1 - 0.9824 = 0.0176

1.76% probability that in one hour more than 5 clients arrive

vovangra [49]
To do it without a calculator:

10% of 67 is 6.7
6.7 x 8 is 53.6 (80%)
1% of 67 is .67
53.6 - .67 is 52.93 (79%)
