Answer:

\log\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)+\log\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)+\log\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)+\log\left(\frac{4}{5}\right)+...+\log\left(\frac{98}{99}\right) +\log\left(\frac{99}{100}\right) = \log(\frac{1}{100})

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\log\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)+\log\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)+\log\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)+\log\left(\frac{4}{5}\right)+...+\log\left(\frac{98}{99}\right) +\log\left(\frac{99}{100}\right)

Required

The sum

Using the laws of logarithm, we have:

\log(a) + \log(b) = \log(ab)

Take the first two terms of the series

\log(\frac{1}{2}) + \log(\frac{2}{3}) = \log(\frac{1}{2} * \frac{2}{3})

\log(\frac{1}{2}) + \log(\frac{2}{3}) = \log(\frac{1}{3})

Include the third term

\log(\frac{1}{2}) + \log(\frac{2}{3})+ \log(\frac{3}{4}) = \log(\frac{1}{3} * \frac{3}{4})

\log(\frac{1}{2}) + \log(\frac{2}{3})+ \log(\frac{3}{4}) = \log(\frac{1}{4})

Include the fourth term

\log(\frac{1}{2}) + \log(\frac{2}{3})+ \log(\frac{3}{4}) + \log(\frac{4}{5}) = \log(\frac{1}{4} *\frac{4}{5})

\log(\frac{1}{2}) + \log(\frac{2}{3})+ \log(\frac{3}{4}) + \log(\frac{4}{5}) = \log(\frac{1}{5})

Notice the following pattern

\log(\frac{1}{2}) + \log(\frac{2}{3}) = \log(\frac{1}{3}) ---------------- n =2

\log(\frac{1}{2}) + \log(\frac{2}{3})+ \log(\frac{3}{4}) = \log(\frac{1}{4}) -------------- n = 3

\log(\frac{1}{2}) + \log(\frac{2}{3})+ \log(\frac{3}{4}) + \log(\frac{4}{5}) = \log(\frac{1}{5}) ----------- n = 4

So the sum of n series is:

\log(\frac{1}{2}) + \log(\frac{2}{3})+ ............ + \log(\frac{n}{n+1}) = \log(\frac{1}{n+1})

So, the sum of the series is:

\log\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)+\log\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)+\log\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)+\log\left(\frac{4}{5}\right)+...+\log\left(\frac{98}{99}\right) +\log\left(\frac{99}{100}\right)

\log\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)+\log\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)+\log\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)+\log\left(\frac{4}{5}\right)+...+\log\left(\frac{98}{99}\right) +\log\left(\frac{99}{100}\right) = \log(\frac{1}{99+1})

\log\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)+\log\left(\frac{2}{3}\right)+\log\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)+\log\left(\frac{4}{5}\right)+...+\log\left(\frac{98}{99}\right) +\log\left(\frac{99}{100}\right) = \log(\frac{1}{100})

Answer:

  • P(x < 84) = 0.3085 or approximately 31%

============

<em>Hello to you from Brainly team!</em>

<h3>Given</h3>

  • Mean grade μ = 86,
  • Standard deviation σ = 4,
  • Grade limit x = 84.

<h3>To find </h3>

  • Probability of that a randomly selected grade is less than 84 or P(x < 84).

<h3>Solution</h3>

Find z-score using relevant equation:

  • z = (x - μ)/σ

Substitute values and calculate:

  • z = (84 - 86)/4 = - 0.5

Using the z-score table find the corresponding P- value.

  • P(x < 84) = 0.30854 or approximately 31%

Max is observing the velocity of a runner at different times. After one hour, the velocity of the runner is 5 km/h. After two ho
Valentin [98]

You have velocity 1 of 5 km per hour after 1 hour and velocity 2 of 3 km per hour after 2 hours.


Part A)

Let Velocity = a +bt, with t being the time in hours.

For velocity 1 you have a +b = 5

For velocity 2, you have a + 2b =3

Now subtract velocity 1 from velocity 2:

a +2b - (a+b) = 3-5

Simplify to get b = -2

Now solve for a in the first equation:

a + b =5

Replace b with -2:

a - 2 = 5

a = 7

Now replace a and b in the original formula:

Velocity = 7 -2t


Part B)

Create a table with x and Y values to graph.

X axis would be the time and the velocity would be the Y axis

Your time would be 0 , 1, 2 3 and 4 hours.

Using the final equation from part A, replace t with the hours ans solve for the velocities, which become the y axis:

7 - 2(0) = 7-0 = 7

7 - 2(1) = 7-2 = 5

7 - 2(2) = 7-4 = 3

7 - 2(3) = 7-6 = 1

7-2(4) = 7-8 = -1


Now you have your x and y coordinates to plot on a graph:

(0,7) (1,5) (2,3) (3,1) and (4,-1)
