Paha777 [63]

Answer:

0.3114

Option d is right

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the time spent on a treadmill in the health club

Given that research shows that on average, patrons spend an average of 42.5 minutes on the treadmill, with a standard deviation of 5.4 minutes

Also given that X is normal

the probability that randomly selected individual would spent between 30 and 40 minutes on the treadmill.

$= P(30$

round off to two decimals tog et

the probability that randomly selected individual would spent between 30 and 40 minutes on the treadmill is 0.31

Hence option d is right

Let g(x) = 2x and h(x)= x^2 -4. find (g o h)(0)

finlep [7]

The answer is -8

====================================================

Explanation:

There are two ways to get this answer

Method 1 will have us plug x = 0 into h(x) to get
h(x) = x^2 - 4
h(0) = 0^2 - 4
h(0) = 0 - 4
h(0) = -4
Then this output is plugged into g(x) to get
g(x) = 2x
g(-4) = 2*(-4)
g(-4) = -8 which is the answer
This works because (g o h)(0) is the same as g(h(0)). Note how h(0) is replaced with -4
So effectively g(h(0)) = -8 which is the same as (g o h)(0) = -8

-----------------------

The second method involves a bit algebra first
Start with the outer function g(x). Then replace every x with h(x). On the right side, we will replace h(x) with x^2-4 because h(x) = x^2-4

g(x) = 2x
g(x) = 2( x )
g(h(x)) = 2( h(x) ) ... replace every x with h(x)
g(h(x)) = 2( x^2-4 ) ... replace h(x) on the right side with x^2-4
g(h(x)) = 2x^2-8
(g o h)(x) = 2x^2-8

Now plug in x = 0
(g o h)(x) = 2x^2-8
(g o h)(0) = 2(0)^2-8
(g o h)(0) = 2(0)-8
(g o h)(0) = 0-8
(g o h)(0) = -8

Regardless of which method you use, the answer is -8

Fred the ant is on the real number line, and Fred is trying to get to the point $0.$

Pavlova-9 [17]

Complete question is;

Fred the ant is on the real number line, and Fred is trying to get to the point 0

If Fred is at 1 then on the next step, Fred moves to either 0 or 2 with equal probability. If Fred is at 2 then on the next step, Fred always moves to 1

Let e1 be expected number of steps Fred takes to get to 0 given that Fred starts at the point 1. Similarly, let e2 be expected number of steps Fred takes to get to 0 given that Fred starts at the point 2

Determine the ordered pair (e1, e2)

Answer:

(e_1,e_2) = (2,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can track the probabilities using the scenario that Ant gets to 0 after 1 steps, 2 steps, 3 steps, 4 steps, 5 steps and so on.

This gives us e_1 = 1(1/2^(1)) + 2(1/2²) + 3(1/2³) + 4(1/2⁴) + ...

By arithmetico-geometric series, which is given by;

S_(∞) = [a/(1 - r)] + dr/(1 - r)²

From the online calculator, i got;

e_1 = 2

Similarly, e_2 = 2(1/2^(1)) + 3(1/2²) + 4(1/2³) + 5(1/2⁴) + ...

By arithmetico-geometric series, e_2 = 3,

Thus, (e_1,e_2) = (2,3).
