Answer:

1. 68%

2. 50%

3. 15/100

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to use the empirical rule

1. % waiting between 15 and 25 minutes

From what we have in the question;

15 is 1 SD below the mean

25 is 1 SD above the mean

So practically, we want to calculate the percentage between;

1 SD below and above the mean

According to the empirical rule;

1 SD above the mean we have 34%

1 SD below, we have 34%

So between 1 SD below and above, we have

34 + 34 = 68%

2. Percentage above the mean

Mathematically, the percentage above the mean according to the empirical rule for the normal distribution is 50%

3. Probability that someone waits less than 5 minutes

Less than 5 minutes is 3 SD below the mean

That is 0.15% according to the empirical rule and the probability is 15/100

Which of the following functions represent exponential decay?

Zina [86]

Option C: $f(x)=3^{5}\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{x}$ is the function that represent exponential decay.

Explanation:

The exponential decay can be represented by

$f(x)=a \cdot b^{x}$ where $a>0$ and $0$

Option A: $f(x)=3(1.7)^{x-2}$

From the function, we can see that $a=3$ and $b=1.7$

Thus, $a>0$ and $b>1$

Thus, the function $f(x)=3(1.7)^{x-2}$ does not represent exponential decay.

Hence, Option A is not the correct answer.

Option B: $f(x)=3(1.7)^{-2 x}$

From the function, we can see that $a=3$ and $b=1.7$

Thus, $a>0$ and $b>1$

Thus, the function $f(x)=3(1.7)^{-2 x}$ does not represent exponential decay.

Hence, Option B is not the correct answer.

Option C: $f(x)=3^{5}\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{x}$

From the function, we can see that $a=3^5=243$ and $b=\frac{1}{3} =0.3333$

Thus, $a>0$ and $0$

Thus, the function $f(x)=3^{5}\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{x}$ represent exponential decay.

Hence, Option C is the correct answer.

Option D: $f(x)=3^{5}(2)^{-x}$

From the function, we can see that $a=3^5=243$ and $b=2$

Thus, $a>0$ and $b>1$

Thus, the function $f(x)=3^{5}(2)^{-x}$ does not represent exponential decay.

Hence, Option D is not the correct answer.
