Let's take as example a linear function of the form:
y = kx.
Where,
k is the constant of proportionality.
Therefore, the proportionality constant is the point:
(x, kx)
Generically it is always the point:
(x, k * f (x))
Where, f (x) is a function proportional to x.
answer:
The constant of proportionality is always the point (x, k * f (x)), where k is the constant of proportionality.

There are 4,000 undergraduates registered at a certain college. Of them, 364 are taking one course, 496 are taking two courses,

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

X=1, P = 0.091

X=2, P = 0.124

X=3, P = 0.115

X=4, P = 0.378

X=5, P = 0.264

X=6, P = 0.028

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the probability distribution of X, first we have to define the sample space.

In this case X=1,2,3,4,5,6. This are the values that X can take.

The probability is calculated as equal to the relative frequency of each of the values.

For X=1, P = 364/4000 = 0.091

For X=2, P = 496/4000 = 0.124

For X=3, P = 460/4000 = 0.115

For X=4, P = 1512/4000 = 0.378

For X=5, P = 1056/4000 = 0.264

For X=6, P = 112/4000 = 0.028

If f ( x ) f(x) is an exponential function where f ( − 3.5 ) = 25 f(−3.5)=25 and f ( 6 ) = 33 f(6)=33, then find the value of f

gavmur [86]

Given:

f(x) is an exponential function.

$f(-3.5)=25, f(6)=33$

To find:

The value of f(6.5).

Solution:

Let the exponential function is

$f(x)=ab^x$ ...(i)

Where, a is the initial value and b is the growth factor.

We have, $f(-3.5)=25$ . So, put x=-3.5 and f(x)=25 in (i).

$25=ab^{-3.5}$ ...(ii)

We have, $f(6)=33$ . So, put x=6 and f(x)=33 in (i).

$33=ab^{6}$ ...(iii)

On dividing (iii) by (ii), we get

$\dfrac{33}{25}=\dfrac{ab^{6}}{ab^{-3.5}}$

$1.32=b^{9.5}$

$(1.32)^{\frac{1}{9.5}}=b$

$1.0296556=b$

$b\approx 1.03$

Putting b=1.03 in (iii), we get

$33=a(1.03)^{6}$

$33=a(1.194)$

$\dfrac{33}{1.194}=a$

$a\approx 27.63$

Putting a=27.63 and b=1.03 in (i), we get

$f(x)=27.63(1.03)^x$

Therefore, the required exponential function is $f(x)=27.63(1.03)^x$ .
