Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve 5 to the power of x minus 3 to the power of x when x=2.

So, you do 5 to the power of 2 minus 3 to the power of 2, which is 25-9=16

Naily [24]

Answer:

In the case of Mike's free throws, the Domain that describes this relationship can be either B or D.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the case of a relationship that represents a 'constant' increase or decrease, we know that there will be an independent and dependent variable. The independent variable is our 'x' value and the dependent variable is our 'y' value. In this case, they tell us that the number of free throws Mike misses is dependent on the number of practices sessions he has attended. Therefor, 'x' would represent the number of practices and 'y' would represent the number of missed free throws. At the start, before practices or an 'x' value of 0, Mike, misses 6 free throws. He continues to decrease his missed throws by for each practice, until the sixth practice where he misses none. So, the 'x' values would be 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. This can be shown by letter 'B', which includes all numbers, or letter 'D', which represents all numbers between, and including 0 and 6.

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

a) 0.0885 = 8.85% probability that the mean annual return on common stocks over the next 40 years will exceed 13%.

b) 0.4129 = 41.29% probability that the mean return will be less than 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Mean 8.7% and standard deviation 20.2%.

This means that $\mu = 8.7, \sigma = 20.2$

40 years:

This means that $n = 40, s = \frac{20.2}{\sqrt{40}}$

(a) What is the probability (assuming that the past pattern of variation continues) that the mean annual return on common stocks over the next 40 years will exceed 13%?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 13. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

By the Central Limit Theorem

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$
