Answer:

Step 1 is the first error

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{2}{9} + \frac{1}{5}$

Required

Which step contains the first error?

From the attachment, the first step is the first error.

This is so because the fractions can not be written as a fraction with a denominator of 14

Solving further:

$\frac{2}{9} + \frac{1}{5}$

Find Common Denominator 45

$\frac{2*5}{9*5} + \frac{1*9}{5*9}$

$\frac{10}{45} + \frac{9}{45}$

Add:

$\frac{10 + 9}{45}$

$\frac{19}{45}$

Learning Thoery In a learning theory project, the proportion P of correct responses after n trials can be modeled by p = 0.83/(1

elena-s [515]

Answer:

a) $P(n=3) = \frac{0.83}{1+e^{-0.2(3)}}= \frac{0.83}{1+ e^{-0.6}} = 0.536$

b) $P(n=7) = \frac{0.83}{1+e^{-0.2(7)}}= \frac{0.83}{1+ e^{-1.4}} = 0.666$

c) $0.75 =\frac{0.83}{1+e^{-0.2n}}$

$1+ e^{-0.2n} = \frac{0.83}{0.75}= \frac{83}{75}$

$e^{-0.2n} = \frac{83}{75}-1= \frac{8}{75}$

$ln e^{-0.2n} = ln (\frac{8}{75})$

$-0.2 n = ln(\frac{8}{75})$

And then if we solve for t we got:

$n = \frac{ln(\frac{8}{75})}{-0.2} = 11.19 trials$

d) If we find the limit when n tend to infinity for the function we have this:

$lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{0.83}{1+e^{-0.2t}} = 0.83$

So then the number of correct responses have a limit and is 0.83 as n increases without bound.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following expression for the proportion of correct responses after n trials:

$P(n) = \frac{0.83}{1+e^{-0.2t}}$

Part a

For this case we just need to replace the value of n=3 in order to see what we got:

$P(n=3) = \frac{0.83}{1+e^{-0.2(3)}}= \frac{0.83}{1+ e^{-0.6}} = 0.536$

So the number of correct reponses after 3 trials is approximately 0.536.

Part b

For this case we just need to replace the value of n=7 in order to see what we got:

$P(n=7) = \frac{0.83}{1+e^{-0.2(7)}}= \frac{0.83}{1+ e^{-1.4}} = 0.666$

So the number of correct responses after 7 weeks is approximately 0.666.

Part c

For this case we want to solve the following equation:

$0.75 =\frac{0.83}{1+e^{-0.2n}}$

And we can rewrite this expression like this:

$1+ e^{-0.2n} = \frac{0.83}{0.75}= \frac{83}{75}$

$e^{-0.2n} = \frac{83}{75}-1= \frac{8}{75}$

Now we can apply natural log on both sides and we got:

$ln e^{-0.2n} = ln (\frac{8}{75})$

$-0.2 n = ln(\frac{8}{75})$

And then if we solve for t we got:

$n = \frac{ln(\frac{8}{75})}{-0.2} = 11.19 trials$

And we can see this on the plot attached.

Part d

If we find the limit when n tend to infinity for the function we have this:

$lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{0.83}{1+e^{-0.2t}} = 0.83$

So then the number of correct responses have a limit and is 0.83 as n increases without bound.

10) Solve using any method<br> 10x+2y=42<br> 5x+y=20

KIM [24]

Answer:

no solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

10x+2y=42

5x+y=20

Multiply the second equation by -2 to use elimination

-2(5x+y)=20*-2

-10x -2y = -40

Add this to the first equation

10x+2y=42

-10x -2y = -40

--------------------------

0 = 2

This is never true. This means there are no solutions

Juan went out to lunch with five friends. They decided to divide the bill evenly among them. Juan estimated that his lunch cost

Lina20 [59]

Juan’s lunch would have costed less if he paid separately. his lunch is 5.25
the bill 37.20
37.20 / 5
$7.44 each kid
7.44 - 5.25 = 2.19
$2.19 less if he paid separately
