B.
Let's simply look at each conjecture and determine if it's true or false.
A. 2n– 1 is odd if n is positive: Since n is an integer, 2n will
always be even. And an even number minus 1 is always odd. Doesn't matter
if n is positive or not. So this conjecture is true.
B. 2n– 1 is always even: Once again, 2n will always be even. So 2n-1 will always be odd. This conjecture is false.
C. 2n– 1 is odd if n is even: 2n is always even, so 2n-1 will always
be odd, regardless of what n is. So this conjecture is true.
D. 2n– 1 is always odd: 2n will always be even. So 2n-1 will always be odd. Once again, this conjecture is true.
Of the 4 conjectures above, only conjecture B is false. So the answer is B.
<span>Average profit from the sale of 1 piece of furniture = 3x + 1
Average number of pieces of furniture that can be made using current supply of raw materials = 3x - 1.
Therefore,
Average profit of total furniture = Average profit X Average total of furniture sold
= (3x + 1) X (3x - 1)
= 9x^2 - 1</span>
Answer:
1. 40%
2. The theoretical probability is 3% greater than the experimental probability.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are informed that a number cube is rolled 20 times and the number 4 is rolled 8 times. The experimental probability of rolling a 4 is;
(the number of times a 4 was rolled)/(total number of rolls)
8/20 = 0.4
0.4*100 = 40%
The experimental probability of obtaining at least one tails, one or more tails, is represented in mathematical notation as;
P(HT or TH or TT)
The above events are mutually exclusive, thus;
P(HT or TH or TT) = P(HT) + P(TH) + P( TT)
= (22+34+16)/(28+22+34+16)
= 0.72 = 72%
On the other hand, the theoretical probability of obtaining at least one tails,
P(HT or TH or TT) = 3/4
= 75%
This is because there is at least one tail in 3 out of 4 possible outcomes.
Therefore, it is true to say that the theoretical probability is 3% greater than the experimental probability.
