Solution:
1) Rewrite it in the form {a}^{2}-2ab+{b}^{2}, where a={d}^{2} and b=4
{({d}^{2})}^{2}-2({d}^{2})(4)+{4}^{2}
2) Use Square of Difference: {(a-b)}^{2}={a}^{2}-2ab+{b}^{2}
{({d}^{2}-4)}^{2}
3) Rewrite {d}^{2}-4 in the form {a}^{2}-{b}^{2} , where a=d and b=2
{({d}^{2}-{2}^{2})}^{2}
4) Use Difference of Squares: {a}^{2}-{b}^{2}=(a+b)(a-b)
{((d+2)(d-2))}^{2}
5) Use Multiplication Distributive Property: {(xy)}^{a}={x}^{a}{y}^{a}
{(d+2)}^{2}{(d-2)}^{2}
Done!
Answer:
78.88%
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that
The z-score formula is given by
For 
For 
Now, we find the corresponding probability from the standard z score table.
For the z score -1.25, we have the probability 0.1056
For the z score 1.25, we have the probability 0.8944
Therefore, the percent of the trees that are between 20 and 30 years old is given by
0.8944 - 0.1056
= 0.7888
=78.88%
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The initial height of a Japanese maple sapling is 14 inches.
The tree is expected to grow 2.5 inches each month. This increase in height is linear, thus it is in arithmetic progression.
The expression for arithmetic progression is
Tn = a + (n-1)d
Where a = the first term of the series
d = common difference
Tn is the nth term of the series
n = the number of terms.
From the information given
a = 14 inches because it is the initial height of the tree
d = 2.5 because it is the difference in height between 2 consecutive months
n = m( number of months)
Tn = f(m)
function models the relationship between the height of the tree f(m) and the number of m months of growth will be
f(m) = 14 + 2.5(m-1)
Answer: Use the function f(x)=x2-2x+8 and the graph of g(x) to determine the difference betw een the maximum value of g(x) and the minimum value of f(x).
