Every given minute an ameba is equally likely to do one of 3 things: (1) Die (2) Divide into two (3) Stay the same. If the ameba

divides, each of the two cells will continue the above cycle independently. What is the probability that the ameba colony generated from a single cell will eventually die out.

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the probability of dyng = 1.3

we have probability of ying =

p0 = p1 = p2 = p3 = 1/3

d = dying

d=\frac{1}{3} (1+d+d2)

we cross multiply from here

3d = 1+d+d2

3d-d = 1+d2

2d = 1 + d2

(d-1)2 = 0

2d - 2 = 0

2d = 2

divide through by 2

d = 1

therefore there is a a confirmed probability that the ameba from a single cell is eventually going to die out.

Assumptions of a regression model can be evaluated by plotting and analyzing the ____________
Gala2k [10]

The assumptions of a regression model can be evaluated by plotting and analyzing the error terms.

Important assumptions in regression model analysis are

  1. There should be a linear and additive relationship between dependent (response) variable and independent (predictor) variable(s).
  2. There should be no correlation between the residual (error) terms. Absence of this phenomenon is known as auto correlation.
  3. The independent variables should not be correlated. Absence of this phenomenon is known as multi col-linearity.
  4. The error terms must have constant variance. This phenomenon is known as homoskedasticity. The presence of non-constant variance is referred to heteroskedasticity.
  5. The error terms must be normally distributed.

Hence we can conclude that the assumptions of a regression model can be evaluated by plotting and analyzing the error terms.

adult tickets at a football game cost $6 and student tickets cost $2. A total of $1776 was collected on 372 tickets. How many ad
postnew [5]

Answer:

258

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the two equations needed (x is the adult tickets and y is the student tickets)

x+y=372

6x+2y=1776

Solve by elimination

-2(x+y=372)

=-2x-2y=-744

Cancel like figures:

-2x-2y=-744

6x+2y=1776

= 4x=1032

x=258

vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

<u>81920</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the common ratio (r) :

  • 20/10
  • 2

Finding the 14th term :

  • a₁₄ = ar¹⁴⁻¹
  • a₁₄ = ar¹³
  • a₁₄ = (10)(2)¹³
  • a₁₄ = (10)(8192)
  • a₁₄ = <u>81920</u>
