The sequence is geometric. Any exponential function models geometric growth. Recall the general nth term of a geometric sequence is a*(r)^(n-1) which is very similar to the form y = a*b^x. The big difference is that the x function is continuous while the function in terms of n is discrete. In this case, the common ratio is r = 1.10 to indicate we have 10% growth. Notice how 100%+10% = 1.00+0.10 = 1.10

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

The first quadrant is where x and y are both positive. Since x is the time in years, it doesn't make sense to talk about negative years or negative years have passed by. We can have a negative balance in a bank account, so it makes sense to have y be negative. However, Mr Sullivan starts with some positive amount and his account grows every year. So there's no way that y can be negative in this case.

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

The point (0,200) is the y intercept. It represents the starting amount he deposited into the account, which was the $200. Keep in mind that no other deposits were made, and he cannot pull money out of the account if he wants his account to grow according to the graph. Also, the interest rate must remain at 10%.

An individual repeatedly attempts to pass a driving test. Suppose that the probability of passing the test with each attempt is

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

a) Our random variable X="number of tests taken until the individual passes" follows a geomteric distribution with probability of success p=0.25

For this case the probability mass function would be given by:

$P(X= k) = (1-p)^{k-1} p , k = 1,2,3,...$

b) $P(X \leq 3) = P(X=1) +P(X=2) +P(X=3)$

$P(X= 1) = (1-0.25)^{1-1} *0.25 = 0.25$

$P(X= 2) = (1-0.25)^{2-1} *0.25 = 0.1875$

$P(X= 3) = (1-0.25)^{3-1} *0.25 = 0.1406$

And adding the values we got:

$P(X \leq 3) =0.25+0.1875+0.1406=0.578$

c) $P(X \geq 5) = 1-P(X$

And we can find the individual probabilities:

$P(X= 1) = (1-0.25)^{1-1} *0.25 = 0.25$

$P(X= 2) = (1-0.25)^{2-1} *0.25 = 0.1875$

$P(X= 3) = (1-0.25)^{3-1} *0.25 = 0.1406$

$P(X= 4) = (1-0.25)^{4-1} *0.25 = 0.1055$

$P(X \geq 5) = 1-[0.25+0.1875+0.1406+0.1055]= 0.316$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The geometric distribution represents "the number of failures before you get a success in a series of Bernoulli trials. This discrete probability distribution is represented by the probability density function:"

$P(X=x)=(1-p)^{x-1} p$

Let X the random variable that measures the number of trials until the first success, we know that X follows this distribution:

$X\sim Geo (1-p)$

Part a

Our random variable X="number of tests taken until the individual passes" follows a geomteric distribution with probability of success p=0.25

For this case the probability mass function would be given by:

$P(X= k) = (1-p)^{k-1} p , k = 1,2,3,...$

Part b

We want this probability:

$P(X \leq 3) = P(X=1) +P(X=2) +P(X=3)$

We find the individual probabilities like this:

$P(X= 1) = (1-0.25)^{1-1} *0.25 = 0.25$

$P(X= 2) = (1-0.25)^{2-1} *0.25 = 0.1875$

$P(X= 3) = (1-0.25)^{3-1} *0.25 = 0.1406$

And adding the values we got:

$P(X \leq 3) =0.25+0.1875+0.1406=0.578$

Part c

For this case we want this probability:

$P(X \geq 5)$

And we can use the complement rule like this:

$P(X \geq 5) = 1-P(X$

And we can find the individual probabilities:

$P(X= 1) = (1-0.25)^{1-1} *0.25 = 0.25$

$P(X= 2) = (1-0.25)^{2-1} *0.25 = 0.1875$

$P(X= 3) = (1-0.25)^{3-1} *0.25 = 0.1406$

$P(X= 4) = (1-0.25)^{4-1} *0.25 = 0.1055$

$P(X \geq 5) = 1-[0.25+0.1875+0.1406+0.1055]= 0.316$

Please help, will give brainliest! (please explain how as well)

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since GJ bisects ∠ FGH , then ∠ FGJ = ∠ JGH = x + 14

∠ FGH = ∠ FGJ + ∠ JGH , substitute values

4x + 16 = x + 14 + x + 14 = 2x + 28 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

2x + 16 = 28 ( subtract 16 from both sides )

2x = 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 6

Thus

∠ FGJ = x + 14 = 6 + 14 = 20° → C

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

20x^2 - 12x - 8

4 ( 5x^2 - 3x - 2 )

5 * - 2 = - 10

Factors of - 10

1 , - 10

10, - 1

2, - 5

5, - 2

5x^2 - 5x + 2x - 2

5x (x - 1) 2 (x - 1)

4 (x - 1) (5x + 2)

(4x - 4) (5x + 2)

47.9 less than k is -21.6

Law Incorporation [45]

K is equal to -69.5 K=69.5 You put it in an equation 47.9-K=-21.6Then you subtract 47.9 from both sides and you get K=69.5
