Determine the first five iterates of f(x) = 1.5x(1 _ x) for x0 = 0.8. (1 point)

1 answer:

8 0

<span>f(x) = 1.5 x (1 - x)
f(0.8) = 1.5(0.8)(1 - 0.8) = 0.24
f(0.24) = 1.5(0.24)(1 - 0.24) ~= 0.274
f(0.274) = 1.5(0.274)(1 - 0.274) ~= 0.298
f(0.298) = 1.5(0.298)(1 - 0.298) ~= 0.314
f(0.314) = 1.5(0.314)(1 - 0.314) ~= 0.323

</span>So the answer is D : 0.24, 0.274, 0.298, 0.314, 0.323

Find the length of BC

Ivan

Answer:

13.3650978628

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle A=180-(Angle B+C)=180-117=63

Here,

b=BC, p=AC & AB=12

Using the relation of cos,

cosx=b/h

cos27=BC/15

15cos27=BC

Using a calculator,

BC=13.3650978628

A certain unsavory bar for poker-playing dogs is attended by only two types of dogs: "good dogs" and "bad dogs." For a randomly

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer: The required probability is 0.1923.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Probability that it's a good dog = 0.4

Probability that it's a bad dog = 1-0.4 = 0.6

Probability that the dog smokes given that its a bad dog = 0.7

Probability that it smokes given that its a good dog = 0.25

According to question, probability of smoking pipe would be

P(good).P(Smoking pipe|good)+P(bad).P(smoking pipe|bad)

$0.4\times 0.25+0.6\times 0.7\\\\=0.1+0.42\\\\=0.52$

So, Probability of getting a good dog given that it is smoking pipe is given by

$\dfrac{P(good).P(smoking\ pipe|good)}{P(smoking\ pipe)}\\\\=\dfrac{0.4\times 0.25}{0.52}\\\\=\dfrac{0.1}{0.52}\\\\=0.1923$

Hence, the required probability is 0.1923.

To convert a quadratic from y = ax2 + bx + c form to vertex form, y = a(x - h)2+ k, you use the process of completing the square

ladessa [460]

Since we will be completing the square we need to isolate the x

y-5 = 2x^2 -4x

now we the coefficient of the x^2 to equal 1 so we take 2 as common factor

y-5 = 2(x^2 -2x)

now we'll make it perfect square by adding 2 to both sides

y-5+2=2(x^2-2x+1)

now simplify and convert the right side to squared expression

y-3 = 2(x-1)^2

now isolate the y

y = 2(x-1)^2 +3 that's it
