Rachel’s free-throw average for basketball is 60%. Describe how you can use 10 index cards to model this situation. Then use a s

imulation to predict how many times in the next 50 tries Rachel will make a free throw.

1. If Rachel's free-throw percentage is 60%, you can take 4 index cards away since 100 - 40 = 60%. For example, if those 10 index cards represent 10 free-throws, and her percentage is 60%, just take 60 away from the total (100%).

2. For the simulation, it's the same as problem 1. Since 50 is the total amount of shots she is going to take, and you know she is going make 60% of them, take 60% from 50 which gives you 30. That means she will make 30 of them and miss 20 of them

In the 1980s an average mortgage rate was around 18.5 how much less per month would a 150000 30 year mortgage by today if the cu
lianna [129]

Answer:

  $1516.69 per month less

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the monthly payment A on a loan of principal P, annual rate r, for t years is ...

  A = P(r/12)/(1 -(1 +r/12)^(-12t))

For the 18.5% loan, the monthly payment is ...

  A = 150000(.185/12)/(1 -(1 +.185/12)^(-12·30)) ≈ 2321.92

For the 5% loan, the monthly payment is ...

  A = 150000(.05/12)/(1 -(1 +.05/12)^-360) ≈ 805.23

The mortgage at 5% would be $1516.69 less per month.

Find the directional derivative of the function at the given point in the direction of the vector v. G(r, s) = tan−1(rs), (1, 3)
alexandr1967 [171]

The <em>directional</em> derivative of f at the given point in the direction indicated is \frac{5}{2}.

<h3>How to calculate the directional derivative of a multivariate function</h3>

The <em>directional</em> derivative is represented by the following formula:

\nabla_{\vec v} f = \nabla f (r_{o}, s_{o})\cdot \vec v   (1)

Where:

  • \nabla f (r_{o}, s_{o}) - Gradient evaluated at the point (r_{o}, s_{o}).
  • \vec v - Directional vector.

The gradient of f is calculated below:

\nabla f (r_{o}, s_{o}) = \left[\begin{array}{cc}\frac{\partial f}{\partial r}(r_{o},s_{o})  \\\frac{\partial f}{\partial s}(r_{o},s_{o}) \end{array}\right]   (2)

Where \frac{\partial f}{\partial r} and \frac{\partial f}{\partial s} are the <em>partial</em> derivatives with respect to r and s, respectively.

If we know that (r_{o}, s_{o}) = (1, 3), then the gradient is:

\nabla f(r_{o}, s_{o}) = \left[\begin{array}{cc}\frac{s}{1+r^{2}\cdot s^{2}} \\\frac{r}{1+r^{2}\cdot s^{2}}\end{array}\right]

\nabla f (r_{o}, s_{o}) = \left[\begin{array}{cc}\frac{3}{1+1^{2}\cdot 3^{2}} \\\frac{1}{1+1^{2}\cdot 3^{2}} \end{array}\right]

\nabla f (r_{o}, s_{o}) = \left[\begin{array}{cc}\frac{3}{10} \\\frac{1}{10} \end{array}\right]

If we know that \vec v = 5\,\hat{i} + 10\,\hat{j}, then the directional derivative is:

\nabla_{\vec v} f = \left[\begin{array}{cc}\frac{3}{10} \\\frac{1}{10} \end{array}\right] \cdot \left[\begin{array}{cc}5\\10\end{array}\right]

\nabla _{\vec v} f (r_{o}, s_{o}) = \frac{5}{2}

The <em>directional</em> derivative of f at the given point in the direction indicated is \frac{5}{2}. \blacksquare
