The annual rainfall (in inches) in a certain region is normally distributed with µ = 40 and σ = 4. What is the probability that

starting with this year, it will take more than 10 years before a year occurs having a rainfall of more than 50 inches? What assumptions are you making?

Answer:

P( That it will take over 10 years or more of a year with a rainfall above 50inches) = (0.9938)^10

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the annual rainfall is normally distributed,

Given: that

Mean (µ )= 40

and σ = 4.

Let X be normal random variables of the annual rainfall.

P(that there will be over 10 years or more before a year with a rainfall above 50 inches)

P(>50) = 1-P[X ≤50]

1 - P[X- μ/σ ≤ 50 - 40/4]

=1 - P [Z≤ 5/2]

=1 -Φ(5/2)

=1 - 0.9939

= 0.0062

P( the non occurrence of rainfall above 50 inches)

= 1-0.0062

=0.9938

ASSUMPTION:

P( That it will take over 10 years or more of a year with a rainfall above 50inches) =(0.9938)^10

2 out of 50 were tagged.

Divide 2 by 50:

2/50 = 0.4 ( This is 4% of the fish were tagged).

Now divide the number of fish caught by the percentage that were tagged:

50 / 0.04 = 1250

The number of fish in the pond is C. 1250

The ratio X/Y for the fictitious company, Teslala, that produces a single type of electronic vehicle, Model Z is 10/pY.

<h3>What is a mathematical model?</h3>

A mathematical model is the model which is used to explain the any system, the effect of the components by study and estimate the functions of systems.

Consider a fictitious company, Teslala, that produces a single type of electronic vehicle, Model Z.

The demand for Model Z depends on the gasoline price (q) because customers tend to purchase an electronic vehicle as a substitute for vehicles that run on gasoline when the gasoline price increases.

The demand for Model Z is estimated as

D(p) = 180 + 10q - 4p

Here, <em>p</em> is the price of Model Z.

Consider the following two statements:

  • 1. When the average gasoline price q increases by $1, the revenue-maximizing price p" increases by $X.

D(p) = 180 + 10q - 4p\\D(p) = 180 + 10(q+1) - 4(p+X)

  • 2. When the average gasoline price q increases by $1, the demand at the revenue-maximizing price (i.e., D(p*)) increases by a factor of Y.

D(p)+Y = 180 + 10q - 4p\\(D(p)+Y) = 180 + 10(q+1) - 4(p+X)\\Y= 180 + 10(q+1) - 4(p+X)-D(p)\\

Put the value of demand at the revenue-maximizing price as,

Y= 180 + 10(q+1) - 4(p+X)-(180 + 10q - 4p)\\Y= 180 + 10q+10 - 4p-pX-180 - 10q + 4p\\Y= 10 -pX\\1=\dfrac{10}{Y}-\dfrac{pX}{Y}\\\dfrac{10}{Y}=\dfrac{pX}{Y}\\\dfrac{10}{pY}=\dfrac{X}{Y}

Thus, the ratio X/Y for the fictitious company, Teslala, that produces a single type of electronic vehicle, Model Z is 10/pY.

Evaluate the sin, cos and tan for 120deg without using a calculator
Yakvenalex [24]

Using equivalent angles, we have that the measures are given as follows:

  • \sin{120^\circ} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}
  • \cos{120^\circ} = -\frac{1}{2}
  • \tan{120^\circ} = -\sqrt{3}

<h3>What are equivalent angles?</h3>

Each angle on the second, third and fourth quadrants will have an equivalent on the first quadrant.

120º is in the second quadrant, hence the equivalent on the first quadrant is:

180º - 120º = 60º.

The sine on the second quadrant is positive, hence:

\sin{120^\circ} = \sin{60^{\circ}} = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

The cosine on the second quadrant is negative, hence:

\cos{120^\circ} = \cos{60^{\circ}} = -\frac{1}{2}

The tangent is given by the <u>sine divided by the cosine</u>, hence:

\tan{120^\circ} = \frac{\sin{120^\circ}}{\cos{120^\circ}} = -\sqrt{3}
