The first 2 terms of an ap is -2 and 3 how many terms are needed for the sum to be equal to 306

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

306

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 + 3 = 1

so really it would take 306 times to get to this

In a particular faculty 60% of students are men and 40% are women. In a random sample of 50 students what is the probability tha

zimovet [89]

Answer:

a) The expected value is given by:

$E(X) = np = 50*0.4 = 20$

and the variance is given by:

$Var(X) =np(1-p) = 50*0.4*(1-0.4) = 12$

b) $P(X>25)= 1-P(X\leq 25)$

And we can find this probability with the following Excel code:

=1-BINOM.DIST(25,50,0.4,TRUE)

And we got:

$P(X>25)= 1-P(X\leq 25)=0.0573$

c) 1) Random sample (assumed)

2) np= 50*0.4= 20 >10

n(1-p) =50*0.6= 30>10

3) Independence (assumed)

Since the 3 conditions are satisfied we can use the normal approximation:

$X \sim N(\mu = 20 , \sigma= 3.464)$

d) $P(X>25) = 1-P(Z< \frac{25-20}{3.464}) = 1-P(z$

e) $P(X>25)= P(X>25.5) = 1-P(X \leq 25.5)$

$P(X>25)= P(X>25.5) = 1-P(X \leq 25.5)= 1-P(Z$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=50, p=0.4)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

Part a

The expected value is given by:

$E(X) = np = 50*0.4 = 20$

and the variance is given by:

$Var(X) =np(1-p) = 50*0.4*(1-0.4) = 12$

Part b

For this case we want to find this probability:

$P(X>25)= 1-P(X\leq 25)$

And we can find this probability with the following Excel code:

=1-BINOM.DIST(25,50,0.4,TRUE)

And we got:

$P(X>25)= 1-P(X\leq 25)=0.0573$

Part c

1) Random sample (assumed)

2) np= 50*0.4= 20 >10

n(1-p) =50*0.6= 30>10

3) Independence (assumed)

Since the 3 conditions are satisfied we can use the normal approximation:

$X \sim N(\mu = 20 , \sigma= 3.464)$

Part d

We want this probability:

$P(X>25) = 1-P(Z< \frac{25-20}{3.464}) = 1-P(z$

Part e

For this case we use the continuity correction and we have this:

$P(X>25)= P(X>25.5) = 1-P(X \leq 25.5)$

$P(X>25)= P(X>25.5) = 1-P(X \leq 25.5)= 1-P(Z$

I need help. this is due in less than 10 min and i have no clue how to solve. any tips appreciated

babymother [125]

Answers:

a) x = 9
b) arc JK = 68
c) arc MJ = 112
d) arc LMK = 248

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

Explanation:

Arcs JK and KL form a semicircle, so they add to 180 degrees

(arcJK) + (arcKL) = 180

(5x+23) + (17x-41) = 180

22x-18 = 180

22x = 180+18

22x = 198

x = 198/22

x = 9

Then you'll use this x value to find arc JK and arc KL

arc JK = 5x+23 = 5*9+23 = 68

arc KL = 17x - 41 = 17*9-41 = 112

Since central angles MNJ and KNL are vertical angles, this means minor arcs MJ and KL are congruent arcs. So arc MJ is also 112 degrees

Arc LMK is basically nearly everything of the full circle, but we exclude out the portion from L to K (the shorter distance)

arc LMK = (full circle) - (measure of minor arc LK)

arc LMK = 360 - 112

arc LMK = 248

Simplify w1/2 and w1/3

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

They are on their simplified form.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since these numbers are prime numbers we can't simplify them. But we can change them to decimal.

1/2=0.5

1/3=0.3 (in which 3 repeats itself)

Hope this helps ;) ❤❤❤
