Y - 4 = ¹/₄(x - 1)²
y - 4 = ¹/₄(x - 1)(x - 1)
y - 4 = ¹/₄(x² - x - x + 1)
y - 4 = ¹/₄(x² - 2x + 1)
y - 4 = ¹/₄(x²) - ¹/₄(2x) + ¹/₄(1)
y - 4 = ¹/₄x² - ¹/₂x + ¹/₄
 + 4 + 4 
 y = ¹/₄x² - ¹/₂x + 4¹/₄
¹/₄x² - ¹/₄x + 4¹/₄ = 0
x = -(-¹/₄) +/- √(-¹/₄)² - 4(¹/₄)(4¹/₄))
 2(¹/₄)
x = ¹/₄ +/- √(¹/₁₆ - 4¹/₄)
 ¹/₂
x = ¹/₄ +/- √(4³/₁₆)
 ¹/₂
x = ¹/₄ +/- 2.046
 ¹/₂
x = ¹/₂ + 4.092
x = ¹/₂ + 4.092 x = ¹/₂ - 4.092
x = 4.592 x = 3.592

A. Every month Population will increase by a factor of 0.84%.

B. Every 3 months Population will increase by a factor of 2.5%.

C. Increase in population in every 20 months is 10% + 6.72% = 16.72%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we have number of employees in a company has been growing exponentially by 10% each year. So , If we have population as x in year 2019 , an increase of 10% in population in 2020 as $x + \frac{x}{100}\times10$ which is equivalent to $\frac{11x}{10}$ .

A.

For each month: We have 12 months in a year and so, distributing 10% in 12 months would be like $\frac{10}{12} = 0.84$ . ∴ Every month Population will increase by a factor of 0.84%.

B.

In every 3 months: We have , 12 months in a year , in order to check for every 3 months $\frac{12}{3} = 4$ and Now, Population increase in every 3 months is $\frac{10}{4} = 2.5$ . ∴ Every 3 months Population will increase by a factor of 2.5%.

C.

In every 20 months: We have , 12 months in a year in which increase in population is 10% . Left number of moths for which we have to calculate factor of increase in population is 20-12 = 8. For 1 month , there is 0.84% increase in population ∴ For 8 months , 8 × 0.84 = 6.72 %.

So , increase in population in every 20 months is 10% + 6.72% = 16.72%.

Three fair coins are tossed. If all land "heads," the player wins $10, and if exactly two land heads, the player wins $5. If it

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

After four games, a player can lose up to $ 16 to win up to $ 26. These are the probabilities for every game:

1/8 or 12.5% of landing three "heads"

3/8 or 37.5% of landing two "heads"

4/8 or 50% of landing no or only one "head".

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

If three coins land "heads" the player wins $ 10

If two coins land "heads" the player wins $ 5

Cost of playing = $ 4

2. What is the player's expected outcome after four games?

Probability of two coins out of three lands "heads" = 3/8

Probability of three coins out of three lands "heads" = 1/8

Now, let's calculate the player's expected outcome, as follows:

Four games:

Cost = 4 * 4 = $ 16

Worst-case scenario: No wins

Best-case scenario: 4 out of 4 of $ 10 win

Worst-case scenario profit or loss = 0 - 16 = Loss of $ 16

Best-case scenario profit or loss = 40 - 16 = Profit of $ 24

After four games, a player can lose up to $ 16 to win up to $ 26. These are the probabilities for every game:

1/8 or 12.5% of landing three "heads"

3/8 or 37.5% of landing two "heads"

4/8 or 50% of landing no or only one "head".
