Jonah is looking at some information for the obstacle course he is interested in completing. The x-coordinate is the number of t

he obstacle, while the y-coordinate is the average time to complete the obstacle, measured in minutes.
(1, 7.25), (2, 7.975), (3, 8.7725), (4, 9.64975)


Help Jonah use an explicit formula to find the average time he will need for the 9th obstacle.


A.f(9) = 7.25(1.1)9; f(9) = 17.095

B.f(9) = 1.1(7.25)8; f(9) = 8396469

C.f(9) = 1.1(7.25)9; f(9) = 60874407

D.f(9) = 7.25(1.1)8; f(9) = 15.541

Answer:

D. y[9]=15.5410

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the answer by using the following observation:

Notice that the y-value differences between consecutives obstacles are:

(y-value from obstacule 2) - (y-value from obstacule 1)= 7.975 - 7.25 = 0.725

which is equal to:

(y-value from obstacule 1) / 10 = 7.25 / 10 = 0.725

So, an equation can be written as follows:

y[i+1]=y[i]+y[i]/10 let's find the other values:

y[2]=7.25+(7.25/10)= 7.975

y[3]=7.975+(7.975/10)= 8.7725

y[4]=8.7725+(8.7725/10)= 9.64975

Notice that we obtained the same y-values using the formula as the ones reported. So using the same formulas we can calculate:

y[9]=15.5410

In conclusion, the general equation is y[i+1]=y[i]+y[i]/10 with a starting point (1, 7.25) and y[9]=15.5410. So the answer is D.

5) Two machines M1, M2 are used to manufacture resistors with a design
Basile [38]

Answer:

Since M1 has the higher probability of being in the desired range, we choose M1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Two machines M1, M2 are used to manufacture resistors with a design specification of 1000 ohm with 10% tolerance.

So we need the machines to be within 1000 - 0.1*1000 = 900 ohms and 1000 + 0.1*1000 = 1100 ohms.

For each machine, we need to find the probabilty of the machine being in this range. We choose the one with the higher probability.

M1:

Resistors of M1 are found to follow normal distribution with mean 1050 ohm and standard deviation of 100 ohm. This means that \mu = 1050, \sigma = 100

The probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 1100 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 900. So

X = 1100

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{1100 - 1050}{100}

Z = 0.5

Z = 0.5 has a pvalue of 0.6915.

X = 900

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{900 - 1050}{100}

Z = -1.5

Z = -1.5 has a pvalue of 0.0668

0.6915 - 0.0668 = 0.6247.

M1 has a 62.47% probability of being in the desired range.

M2:

M2 are found to follow normal distribution with mean 1000 ohm and standard deviation of 120 ohm. This means that \mu = 1000, \sigma = 120

X = 1100

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{1100 - 1000}{120}

Z = 0.83

Z = 0.83 has a pvalue of 0.7967.

X = 900

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{900 - 1000}{120}

Z = -0.83

Z = -0.83 has a pvalue of 0.2033

0.7967 - 0.2033 = 0.5934

M2 has a 59.34% probability of being in the desired range.

Since M1 has the higher probability of being in the desired range, we choose M1.
