Please help me! Zoe's Conjecture: When any number is multiplied by itself, the product will be greater than this starting number

.For example, 3 x 3 = 9, the product is greater than the starting number 3 Sage disagreed with Zoe's conjecture. Sage pointed out that 1/3 x 1/3= 1/9 is less than 1/3 . How could Zoe's conjecture be improved? Explain any change or changes you would make

Answer:

When any number greater than 1 is multiplied by itself, the product will be greater than this starting number

Step-by-step explanation:

Required: Improve Zoe's conjecture

Zoe's example of 3 * 3 = 9. implies that Zoe's conjecture is only correct for positive numbers greater than 1.

i.e.

x^2>x*x if x > 1

So, the conjecture can be improved by limiting Zoe's statement to only numbers greater than 1

In other words:

<em>When any number greater than 1 is multiplied by itself, the product will be greater than this starting number</em>

soybean meal is 18% protein, cornmeal is 19% protein.. how many pounds of each should be mixed in order to get 360lb mixture tha
seraphim [82]
S=weight of soybean protein, C=weight of cornmeal protein.
Total weight of each protein is 0.18S+0.19C=0.17×360=61.2 lb.
Total weight of meal is S+C=360 lb. So S=360-C.
Therefore 0.18(360-C)+0.19C=61.2, 64.8-0.18C+0.19C=61.2, 0.01C=-3.6.
Clearly we would get a negative value for C. When you look at the question you will realise that there is a larger percentage of protein in the ingredients than there is in the mixture. The expected amount of protein in the mixture should be between 18% and 19%. Please check your figures.

Apond contains 100 fish, ofwhich 30 are carp. If 20 fish are caught, what are the mean and variance of the number of carp among
Sergeu [11.5K]

Total fish = 100

Carp = 30

Number of fish caught = 20

The random variable X follows hyper-geometric distribution.

Mean = 30 *20 / 100 = 600/100 = 6

Variance = 30*20/100 * ((20-1)*(30-1)/100-1 + 1-30*20/100)

Variance = 600/100 * 56/99

Variance = 112/33

Assumptions: Is that X follows hyper-geometric distribution with the given information.
