Answer:
a)
b) 394 thousand = 394,000 people will be following the website in 2016
Step-by-step explanation:
Exponential equation for an amount:
The exponential equation for an amount after t years has the following format:
In which y(0) is the initial value and r is the growth rate, as a decimal.
A social media website had 350,000 followers in 2010. The number y of followers increases by 2% each year.
This means that:
a. Write an exponential growth function that represents the number of followers t years after 2010
In thousands:
b. How many people will be following the website in 2016?
2016 is 6 years after 2010, so this is y(6).
Rounding to the nearest thousand:
394 thousand = 394,000 people will be following the website in 2016
No, 8:2 = 4:1 which is less than 5:1
a) 0.70
b) 0.82
Let M be the event that student get merit scholarship and A be the event that student get athletic scholarship.
P(M)=0.3
P(A)=0.6
P(M∩A)=0.08
P(not getting merit scholarships)=P(M')=?
P(not getting merit scholarships)=1-P(M)
P(not getting merit scholarships)=1-0.3
P(not getting merit scholarships)=0.7
The probability that student not get the merit scholarship is 70%.
b)
P(getting at least one of two scholarships)=P(M or A)=P(M∪A)
P(getting at least one of two scholarships)=P(M)+P(A)-P(M∩A)
P(getting at least one of two scholarships)=0.3+0.6-0.08
P(getting at least one of two scholarships)=0.9-0.08
P(getting at least one of two scholarships)=0.82
The probability that student gets at least one of two scholarships is 82%.
The center of the circle is
Let the equation of the circle be
, where (-a,-b) is the center of this circle.
The points lying the circle must satisfy the equation of this circle.
A(0,0)
We substitute this point to get;
B(-3,0)
But c=0
C(1,2)
Put the value of 'a' and 'c' to find 'b'
b=-2
Hence the center of the circle is

Expand both factors and collect like term
Using Pascal' triangle with n = 6 to obtain the coefficients
1 6 15 20 15 6 1
Decreasing powers of 1 from to
Increasing powers of 3x from to
= 1. + 6. + 15. + 20. + 15.1² + 6. + 1.
= 1 + 18x + 135x² + 540x³ + 1215 + 1458 + 729
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
= 1 - 18x + 135x² - 540x³ + 1215 - 1458 + 729
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Collecting like terms from both expressions
+
= 2 + 270x² + 2430 + 1458
----------------------------------------------------
(2)
Using Pascal's triangle with n = 5
1 5 10 10 5 1
Increasing powers of 2x from to
= 1. + 5. + 10. + 10. + 5.+ 1.
= 1 + 10x + 40x² + 80x³ + 80 + 32
