Answer:

Option D. y = 5x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were:

Input (x) >>>>>> Output (y)

0 >>>>>>>>>>>> 1

1 >>>>>>>>>>>> 6

2 >>>>>>>>>>>> 11

3 >>>>>>>>>>>> 16

4 >>>>>>>>>>>> 21

To know the the correct answer to the question, we shall apply the equation given in each option to see which will satisfy the table. This can be obtained as follow:

For Option a

y = 3x + 3

x = 0

y = 3(0) + 3

y = 0 + 3

y = 0

y = 3x + 3

x = 1

y = 3(1) + 3

y = 3 + 3

y = 6

For Option b

y = 5x – 4

x = 0

y = 5(0) – 4

y = 0 – 4

y = – 4

y = 5x – 4

x = 1

y = 5(1) – 4

y = 5 – 4

y = 1

For Option c

y = 10x – 9

x = 0

y = 10(0) – 9

y = 0 – 9

y = – 9

y = 10x – 9

x = 1

y = 10(1) – 9

y = 10 – 9

y = 1

For Option d

y = 5x + 1

x = 0

y = 5(0) + 1

y = 0 + 1

y = 1

y = 5x + 1

x = 1

y = 5(1) + 1

y = 5 + 1

y = 6

From the illustrations made above, only option d satisfy the table. Thus, option d gives the correct answer to the question.

Two drivers are exploring the bottom of a trench in the Pacific Ocean. Dominic is at 175 feet below the surface of the ocean and

mestny [16]

$\huge\boxed{\text{Dominic}}$

In this problem, $0$ represents the sea level. Since Dominic is $175$ feet below the surface (sea level), his current location is at $-175$ feet.

The same concept can be applied to Karen, who is at $-138$ feet.

We need to find who is lower, or farther below $0$ . This means the answer is $\boxed{\text{Dominic}}$ .

f) The life of a power transmission tower is exponentially distributed, with mean life 25 years. If three towers, operated indep

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

15.24% probability that at least 2 will still stand after 35 years

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the binomial distribution and the exponential distribution.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

Exponential distribution:

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:

$f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}$

In which $\mu = \frac{1}{m}$ is the decay parameter.

The probability that x is lower or equal to a is given by:

$P(X \leq x) = \int\limits^a_0 {f(x)} \, dx$

Which has the following solution:

$P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}$

The probability of finding a value higher than x is:

$P(X > x) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-\mu x}$

Probability of a single tower being standing after 35 years:

Single tower, so exponential.

Mean of 25 years, so $m = 25, \mu = \frac{1}{25} = 0.04$

We have to find $P(X > 35)$

$P(X > 35) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-0.04*35} = 0.2466$

What is the probability that at least 2 will still stand after 35 years?

Now binomial.

Each tower has a 0.2466 probability of being standing after 35 years, so $p = 0.2466$

3 towers, so $n = 3$

We have to find:

$P(X \geq 2) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 2) = C_{3,2}.(0.2466)^{2}.(0.7534)^{1} = 0.1374$

$P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.2466)^{3}.(0.7534)^{0} = 0.0150$

$P(X \geq 2) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.1374 + 0.0150 = 0.1524$

15.24% probability that at least 2 will still stand after 35 years
