Answer:

f(5) = 136.71875‬

Step-by-step explanation:

f(5) if f(1)=3.5 and f(x+1)=5\2 f(x)

f(2) = (5/2)* f(1) = (5/2)* 3.5 = 8.75

f(3) = (5/3)*f(2) =(5/2) * 8.75

f(4) = (5/3)*f(3) =(5/2)*(5/2) * 8.75

f(5) = (5/3)*f(4) = (5/3)*(5/2)*(5/2) * 8.75

f(5) = (5/2)^4 * 3.5 = (625/16) * 3.5 = 136.71875‬

f(5) = 136.71875‬

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the ratio of the vertical difference between two points to the horizontal difference. This ratio is often referred to as "rise over run."

From the point (-2, -1) to the point (2, 7), the rise is 7-(-1) = 8, and the run is 2-(-2) = 4. The ratio of these numbers is ...

slope = rise/run = 8/4

slope = 2

_____

Check

The graph rises 2 units for a run of 1 unit, confirming this calculation.

In a pizza takeout restaurant, the following probability distribution was obtained for the number of toppings ordered on a large

Elis [28]

Answer:

The random variable (number of toppings ordered on a large pizza) has a mean of 1.14 and a standard deviation of 1.04.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete:

The probability distribution is:

x P(x)

0 0.30

1 0.40

2 0.20

3 0.06

4 0.04

The mean can be calculated as:

$M=\sum p_iX_i=0.3\cdot 0+0.4\cdot 1+0.2\cdot 2+0.06\cdot 3+0.04\cdot 4\\\\M=0+0.4+0.4+0.18+0.16\\\\M=1.14$

(pi is the probability of each class, Xi is the number of topping in each class)

The standard deviation is calculated as:

$s=\sqrt{\sum p_i(X_i-M)^2}\\\\s=\sqrt{0.3(0-1.14)^2+0.4(1-1.14)^2+0.2(2-1.14)^2+0.06(3-1.14)^2+0.04(4-1.14)^2}\\\\s=\sqrt{0.3(-1.14)^2+0.4(-0.14)^2+0.2(0.86)^2+0.06(1.86)^2+0.04(2.86)^2}\\\\ s=\sqrt{0.3(1.2996)+0.4(0.0196)+0.2(0.7396)+0.06(3.4596)+0.04(8.1796)}\\\\s=\sqrt{0.3899+0.0078+0.1479+0.2076+0.3272}\\\\ s=\sqrt{ 1.0804 }\\\\s\approx 1.04$

Step-by-step explanation:

2(x^2 + 5) − 3(x + 1) + 3

Distribute

2x^2 +10 -3x -3 +3

Combine like terms

2x^2 -3x +10 -3+3
