Answer:
2.87%
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the following information:
mean (m) = 200
standard deviation (sd) = 50
sample size = n = 40
the probability that their mean is above 21.5 is determined as follows:
P (x> 21.5) = P [(x - m) / (sd / n ^ (1/2))> (21.5 - 200) / (50/40 ^ (1/2))]
P (x> 21.5) = P (z> -22.57)
this value is very strange, therefore I suggest that it is not 21.5 but 215, therefore it would be:
P (x> 215) = P [(x - m) / (sd / n ^ (1/2))> (215 - 200) / (50/40 ^ (1/2))]
P (x> 215) = P (z> 1.897)
P (x> 215) = 1 - P (z <1.897)
We look for this value in the attached table of z and we have to:
P (x> 215) = 1 - 0.9713 (attached table)
P (x> 215) =.0287
Therefore the probability is approximately 2.87%
Answer:
x₂ = 7.9156
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function ln(x)=10-x with initial value x₀ = 9, we are to find the second approximation value x₂ using the Newton's method. According to Newtons method xₙ₊₁ = xₙ - f(xₙ)/f'(xₙ)
If f(x) = ln(x)+x-10
f'(x) = 1/x + 1
f(9) = ln9+9-10
f(9) = ln9- 1
f(9) = 2.1972 - 1
f(9) = 1.1972
f'(9) = 1/9 + 1
f'(9) = 10/9
f'(9) = 1.1111
x₁ = x₀ - f(x₀)/f'(x₀)
x₁ = 9 - 1.1972/1.1111
x₁ = 9 - 1.0775
x₁ = 7.9225
x₂ = x₁ - f(x₁)/f'(x₁)
x₂ = 7.9225 - f(7.9225)/f'(7.9225)
f(7.9225) = ln7.9225 + 7.9225 -10
f(7.9225) = 2.0697 + 7.9225 -10
f(7.9225) = 0.0078
f'(7.9225) = 1/7.9225 + 1
f'(7.9225) = 0.1262+1
f'(7.9225) = 1.1262
x₂ = 7.9225 - 0.0078/1.1262
x₂ = 7.9225 - 0.006926
x₂ = 7.9156
<em>Hence the approximate value of x₂ is 7.9156</em>
Answer:
42 and 44
Step-by-step explanation:
The even numbers are numbers which can be written as 2n where n is any integer number.
Therefore, two consecutive numbers would be "2n" and "2n + 2"
We then have that
2n + (2n+2) = 86
4n + 2 = 86
4n = 84
n = 21
And the even number 2n is 2(21) = 42.
(We can verify this answer by doing 42 + 44 = 86)
