Use summation notation to write the series 49 + 54 + 59 +... for 14 terms.
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Arithmetic sequence states that a sequence of numbers such that the difference between the consecutive terms is constant.

it is given by:  a_n = a+(n-1)d where a is the first term , n is the number of term and d is the common difference.

Given the series: 49 + 54 + 59+ ......

here, Common difference(d) = 5

First term(a) = 49

by definition we have;

For nth term

a_n = a+(n-1)d

a_n = 49+(n-1)5

a_n =49+5n -5 = 5n + 44

To write the series using summation notation for 14 terms

Summation symbol '\sum'

The series for 14th terms is given by;

\sum_{n=1}^{14}(5n +44)

3. Assume that the likelihood of a child under the age of ten watching PBS is 0.76. Three children are
natta225 [31]

Using the binomial distribution, the probabilities are given as follows:

a) 0.4159 = 41.59%.

b) 0.5610 = 56.10%.

c) 0.8549 = 85.49%.

<h3>What is the binomial distribution formula?</h3>

The formula is:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

The parameters are:

  • x is the number of successes.
  • n is the number of trials.
  • p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

For this problem, the values of the parameters are:

n = 3, p = 0.76.

Item a:

The probability is P(X = 2), hence:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 2) = C_{3,2}.(0.76)^{2}.(0.24)^{1} = 0.4159

Item b:

The probability is P(X < 3), hence:

P(X < 3) = 1 - P(X = 3)

In which:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.76)^{3}.(0.24)^{0} = 0.4390

Then:

P(X < 3) = 1 - P(X = 3) = 1 - 0.4390 = 0.5610 = 56.10%.

Item c:

The probability is:

P(X \geq 2) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.4159 + 0.4390 = 0.8549

A muffin recipe, which yields 12 muffins, calls for 2/3 cup of milk for every 1 3/4 cups of flour. The same recipe calls for 1/4
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

First I'm making all mixed numbers improper fractions.

Base recipe: 12 muffins = 2/3 milk + 7/4 flour + 1/4 coconut + 3/4 apple

Change: 9/8 apple

On second look, I ddn't need to do that except for the last one, the change in apple.  When increasing things proportionally you basically multiply everything by the same number.  A simple example.

Say a recipe made 10 of something with 1 of ingredient A and 2 of ingredient B.  Well, what if you made the recipe twice?  that would be 20 things from 2 of A and 4 of B.  This is the same as changing the recipe to make double.  It works if you halve things as well, or multiply by any number or fraction.

So the point is, we changed the amount of apples.  We want to know how much we changed it by, then that much is how much the total number of muffins changes.  So if we doubled apples the muffins would double, but I don't think it's that simple.

Started at 3/4 cup of chopped apple and increased to 9/8 cups.  We want to know what to multiiply by to do this.  So we set up a simple algebraic equation.

(3/4)x = 9/8

where x is what we multiply by.  Now, to do this you could do one step, divide by 3/4 or you could do it in two steps, multiply both sides by 4 then divide by 3.  Or the other way around.  Either way you will get the same number.

(3/4)x = 9/8

3x = 9/2

x = 3/2

And you can (and should) double check

(3/4)x = 9/8

(3/4)(3/2) = 9/8

9/8 = 9/8

Yay!  If you don't gt fraction multiplication let me know.  But the recipie is an increase of 3/2 or 1.5, so there will be 1.5 as many muffins.

12*1.5 = 12(3/2) = 18
