Notice the following pattern:

2 - 0 = 2

6 - 2  = 4

12 - 6 = 6

20 - 12 = 8

It's reasonable to assume that consecutive terms in the sequence differ by increasing multiples of 2, so that for the next number (call it x) we expect to see

x - 20 = 10  ==>  x = 30

and for the number after that (call it y) we would see

y - x = y - 30 = 12  ==>  y = 42

Suppose that X has a Poisson distribution with a mean of 64. Approximate the following probabilities. Round the answers to 4 dec
o-na [289]

Answer:

(a) The probability of the event (<em>X</em> > 84) is 0.007.

(b) The probability of the event (<em>X</em> < 64) is 0.483.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Poisson distribution with parameter <em>λ</em> = 64.

The probability mass function of a Poisson distribution is:

P(X=x)=\frac{e^{-\lambda}\lambda^{x}}{x!};\ x=0, 1, 2, ...

(a)

Compute the probability of the event (<em>X</em> > 84) as follows:

P (X > 84) = 1 - P (X ≤ 84)

                =1-\sum _{x=0}^{x=84}\frac{e^{-64}(64)^{x}}{x!}\\=1-[e^{-64}\sum _{x=0}^{x=84}\frac{(64)^{x}}{x!}]\\=1-[e^{-64}[\frac{(64)^{0}}{0!}+\frac{(64)^{1}}{1!}+\frac{(64)^{2}}{2!}+...+\frac{(64)^{84}}{84!}]]\\=1-0.99308\\=0.00692\\\approx0.007

Thus, the probability of the event (<em>X</em> > 84) is 0.007.

(b)

Compute the probability of the event (<em>X</em> < 64) as follows:

P (X < 64) = P (X = 0) + P (X = 1) + P (X = 2) + ... + P (X = 63)

                =\sum _{x=0}^{x=63}\frac{e^{-64}(64)^{x}}{x!}\\=e^{-64}\sum _{x=0}^{x=63}\frac{(64)^{x}}{x!}\\=e^{-64}[\frac{(64)^{0}}{0!}+\frac{(64)^{1}}{1!}+\frac{(64)^{2}}{2!}+...+\frac{(64)^{63}}{63!}]\\=0.48338\\\approx0.483

Thus, the probability of the event (<em>X</em> < 64) is 0.483.

A line passes through the point (8,-5) and has a slope of 5/4. Write an equation in slope intercept form for this line.
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

y = 5/4x-15

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 5/4x+b

Substitute the point into the equation and solve for b

-5 = 5/4(8)+b

-5 = 10+b

Subtract 10 from each side

-5-10 = b

-15 = b

y = 5/4x-15

The size of each interior angle of a regular polygon is 8 times the sizes of each exterior angle.
olga55 [171]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of a given exterior angle of a regular polygon, simply divide 360 by the number of sides or angles that the polygon has. For example, an eight-sided regular polygon, an octagon, has exterior angles that are 45 degrees each, because 360/8 = 45.

If each interior angle is 8 times the degree measure of each exterior angle how many sides does the polygon have. Now 8+1 = 9. Divide 180 by 9 to get 20.

Answer please I’m dying from math
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\text{D)} \  15x^4 + 2x^3 - 8x^2 - 22x - 15}

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this multiplication of polynomials by understanding how to multiply these large terms.

To multiply two polynomials together, we must multiply each term by each term in the other polynomial. Each term should be multiplied by another one until it's multiplied by all of the terms in the other expression.

  • <em>We can do this by focusing on one term in the first polynomial and multiplying it by </em><em>all the terms</em><em> in the second polynomial. We'd then repeat this for the remaining terms in the second polynomial.</em>

Let's first start by multiplying the first term of the first polynomial, 3x^2, by all of the terms in the second polynomial. (5x^2+4x+5)

  • 3x^2 \cdot  5x^2 = 15x^4
  • 3x^2 \cdot 4x = 12x^3
  • 3x^2 \cdot 5 = 15x^2

Now, we can add up all these expressions to get the first part of our polynomial. Ordering by exponent, our expression is now

  • \displaystyle 15x^4 + 12x^3 + 15x^2

Now let's do the same with the second term (-2x) and the third term (-3).

  • -2x \cdot 5x^2 = -10x^3  
  • -2x \cdot 4x = -8x^2
  • -2x \cdot 5 = -10x
  • Adding on to our original expression: \displaystyle 15x^4 + 12x^3 - 10x^3 + 15x^2 - 8x^2 - 10x

  • -3 \cdot 5x^2 = -15x^2
  • -3 \cdot 4x = -12x
  • -3 \cdot 5 = -15
  • Adding on to our original expression: \displaystyle 15x^4 + 12x^3 - 10x^3 + 15x^2 - 8x^2 - 15x^2 - 10x - 12x - 15

Phew, that's one big polynomial! We can simplify it by combining like terms. We can combine terms that share the same exponent and combine them via their coefficients.

  • 12x^3 - 10x^3 = 2x^3
  • 15x^2 - 8x^2 - 15x^2 = -8x^2
  • -10x - 12x = -22x

This simplifies our expression down to 15x^4 + 2x^3 - 8x^2 - 22x - 15.

Hope this helped!
