Graphing Natural Exponential Functions In Exercise,sketch the graph of the function.See Example 1.
serg [7]

Answer:

See the graph and explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following function:

f(x) = e^{1-x}

We can calculate some points in order to see the tendency of the graph, we can select a set of points for example x =-2,-1.5,-1,0,1,1,5,2 and we can calculate the values for f(x) like this

x=-2

f(x=-2) =e^{1+2}= e^{3}=20.086

x=-1.5

f(x=-1.5) =e^{1+1.5}= e^{2.5}=12.182

x=-1

f(x=-1) =e^{1+1}= e^{2}=7.389

x=0

f(x=0) =e^{1-0}= e^{1}=2.718

This point correspond to the y intercept.

x=1

f(x=1) =e^{1-1}= e^{0}=1

x=2

f(x=2) =e^{1-2}= e^{-1}=0.368

We don't have x intercepts for this case since the functionnever crosses the x axis.

And then we can see the plot on the figure attached.

The number of passengers who arrive at the platform of a subway station for the 10 am train is a random variable with a mean of
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

The lower bound of the probability that there will be between 100 and 140 passengers 96%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Chebyshev's theorem states that, the probability that <em>X</em> is within <em>k</em> standard deviation of mean is given by,

                                 P(|X-\mu|

Here, k is any positive number.

The given information is:

Mean (<em>µ</em>) = 120

Standard deviation (<em>σ</em>) = 16.

Then, we need to compute, P (100 ≤ X ≤ 140).

Then,  

\frac{Upper-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{140-120}{\sqrt{16}}=5    

\frac{\mu-Lower}{\sigma}=\frac{120-100}{\sqrt{16}}=5              

Since, these two values coincide it implies that the event (66000, 78000) is centered about the mean.

Also, the event P (100 ≤ X ≤ 140) is equivalent to having X within 5 standard deviation of the mean.  

That is, <em>k</em> = 5.

Then for k = 5,  

1-\frac{1}{k^{2}}=1-\frac{1}{25}=\frac{24}{25}=0.96

That is, <em>P</em> (100 ≤ <em>X</em> ≤ 140) ≤ 0.96 .

Thus, the lower bound of the probability that there will be between 100 and 140 passengers 96%.

Neal decides to sell his concert tickets to a sold- out show. He paid 90$ for the pair but believes he can sell them for 150% of
Pie

Answer:

Neal thinks that he can sell the tickets for $135.

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price at which Neal bought the tickets = $90

If he expects to sell them at 150% of the original,

150% as a decimal = 150/100 = 1.5

the new resale price = 1.5* $90

                                   = $135

Therefore, Neal thinks that he can sell the tickets for $135.
