Answer:

$a=4.1$

Step-by-step explanation:

The Law of Cosines is given as:

$a^2=c^2+b^2-2cb\cos A$ .

Plugging in given values, we get:

$a^2=4^2+2^2-2\cdot 4 \cdot 2\cos 78^{\circ},\\a^2=16+4-16\cos 78^{\circ},\\a^2\approx \sqrt{16.673},\\a\approx \fbox{$4.1$}$ .

What does the PErron-Frobenius Theorem say, and why is it useful?

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

Perron–Frobenius theorem for irreducible matrices. Let A be an irreducible non-negative n × n matrix with period h and spectral radius ρ(A) = r. Then the following statements hold. The number r is a positive real number and it is an eigenvalue of the matrix A, called the Perron–Frobenius eigenvalue.

Answer:

$-1,4,-7,10,...$ neither

$192,24,3,\frac{3}{8},...$ geometric progression

$-25,-18,-11,-4,...$ arithmetic progression

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

sequences: $-1,4,-7,10,...$

$192,24,3,\frac{3}{8},...$

$-25,-18,-11,-4,...$

To find: which of the given sequence forms arithmetic progression, geometric progression or neither of them

Solution:

A sequence forms an arithmetic progression if difference between terms remain same.

A sequence forms a geometric progression if ratio of the consecutive terms is same.

For $-1,4,-7,10,...$ :

$4-(-1)=5\\-7-4=-11\\10-(-7)=17\\So,\,\,4-(-1)\neq -7-4\neq 10-(-7)$

Hence,the given sequence does not form an arithmetic progression.

$\frac{4}{-1}=-4\\\frac{-7}{4}=\frac{-7}{4}\\\frac{10}{-7}=\frac{-10}{7}\\So,\,\,\frac{4}{-1}\neq \frac{-7}{4}\neq \frac{10}{-7}$

Hence,the given sequence does not form a geometric progression.

So, $-1,4,-7,10,...$ is neither an arithmetic progression nor a geometric progression.

For $192,24,3,\frac{3}{8},...$ :

$\frac{24}{192}=\frac{1}{8}\\\frac{3}{24}=\frac{1}{8}\\\frac{\frac{3}{8}}{3}=\frac{1}{8}\\So,\,\,\frac{24}{192}=\frac{3}{24}=\frac{\frac{3}{8}}{3}$

As ratio of the consecutive terms is same, the sequence forms a geometric progression.

For $-25,-18,-11,-4,...$ :

$-18-(-25)=-18+25=7\\-11-(-18)=-11+18=7\\-4-(-11)=-4+11=7\\So,\,\,-18-(-25)=-11-(-18)=-4-(-11)$

As the difference between the consecutive terms is the same, the sequence forms an arithmetic progression.

Based on historical data, your manager believes that 26% of the company's orders come from first-time customers. A random sample

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

$\hat p \sim N( p, \sqrt{\frac{p (1-p)}{n}})$

And we can use the z score formula given by:

$z = \frac{\hat p -\mu_p}{\sigma_p}$

And if we find the parameters we got:

$\mu_p = 0.26$

$\sigma_p = \sqrt{\frac{0.26(1-0.26)}{158}} = 0.0349$

And we can find the z score for the value of 0.4 and we got:

$z = \frac{0.4-0.26}{0.0349}= 4.0119$

And we can find this probability:

$P(z>4.0119) = 1-P(z$

And if we use the normal standard table or excel we got:

$P(z>4.0119) = 1-P(z$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following info given:

$p = 0.26$ represent the proportion of the company's orders come from first-time customers

$n=158$ represent the sample size

And we want to find the following probability:

$p(\hat p >0.4)$

And we can use the normal approximation since we have the following two conditions:

1) np = 158*0.26 = 41.08>10

2) n(1-p) = 158*(1-0.26) = 116.92>10

And for this case the distribution for the sample proportion is given by:

$\hat p \sim N( p, \sqrt{\frac{p (1-p)}{n}})$

And we can use the z score formula given by:

$z = \frac{\hat p -\mu_p}{\sigma_p}$

And if we find the parameters we got:

$\mu_p = 0.26$

$\sigma_p = \sqrt{\frac{0.26(1-0.26)}{158}} = 0.0349$

And we can find the z score for the value of 0.4 and we got:

$z = \frac{0.4-0.26}{0.0349}= 4.0119$

And we can find this probability:

$P(z>4.0119) = 1-P(z$

And if we use the normal standard table or excel we got:

$P(z>4.0119) = 1-P(z$
