Answer:

Domain of (cd)(x) is all real numbers values except 2.

The value of (f/g)(5) is 270

Step-by-step explanation:

Given c(x) and d(x) we have to find the domain of (cd)(x)

$c(x)=\frac{5}{x}-2$ and $d(x)=x+3$

The product of above two is

$(cd)(x)=c(x)d(x)=(\frac{5}{x-2})(x+3)$

The above function is defined at all real numbers values except 2 because that would make the denominator 0.

Hence, domain of (cd)(x) is all real numbers except 2.

Given $f(x)=7+4x$ and $g(x)=\frac{1}{2x}$

we have to find the value of (f/g)(5)

$\text{(f/g)x=}\frac{7+4x}{\frac{1}{2x}}=2x(7+4x)$

put x=5

$\text{(f/g)(5)=}2x(7+4x)=2(5)(7+4(5))=10(27)=270$

1. The value of (cd)(x) is equal to the product of c(x) and d(x) which is equal to,
5(x + 3) / (x - 2)
The function can take all real numbers except 2 because that would make the denominator 0.

2. To answer, substitute first 5 to the given functions,
f(x) = 7 + 4x = 7 + 4(5) = 27
g(x) = 1/2x = 1 / (2)(5) = 1/10
Dividing 27 by 1/10 is 270.

<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

According to the Binomial probability distribution ,

Let x be the binomial variable .

Then the probability of getting success in x trials , is given by :

$P(X=x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}$ , where n is the total number of trials or the sample size and p is the probability of getting success in each trial.

As per given , we have

n = 15

Let x be the number of defective components.

Probability of getting defective components = P = 0.03

The whole batch can be accepted if there are at most two defective components. .

The probability that the whole lot is accepted :

$P(X\leq 2)=P(x=0)+P(x=1)+P(x=2)\\\\=^{15}C_0(0.03)^0(0.97)^{15}+^{15}C_1(0.03)^1(0.97)^{14}+^{15}C_2(0.03)^2(0.97)^{13}\\\\=(0.97)^{15}+(15)(0.03)^1(0.97)^{14}+\dfrac{15!}{2!13!}(0.03)^2(0.97)^{13}\\\\\approx0.63325+0.29378+0.06360=0.99063$

∴The probability that the whole lot is accepted = 0.99063

For sample size n= 2500

Expected value : $\mu=np= (2500)(0.03)=75$

The expected value = 75

Standard deviation : $\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{2500(0.03)(0.97)}\approx8.53$

The standard deviation = 8.53

If I bought shoes for 32.30 with 15% off 7%sales tax a 25dollar gift card but had a coupon that was forgotten for 5%off the orig

Otrada [13]

Answer:

$4.37 cash outlay

$29.37 total amount paid, partly with gift card

Step-by-step explanation:

The discount was ...

0.15 × $32.30 = $4.845 ≈ $4.85

So the price to which tax is added is ...

$32.30 -4.85 = $27.45

The amount of tax is 7% of this value, or ...

tax = $27.45 × 0.07 = $1.9215 ≈ $1.92

So, payment is made on the amount ...

$27.45 + 1.92 = $29.37

$29.37 is the total amount paid.

If $25 is paid using a gift card, then the cash outlay is $4.37.

_____

Usually only a single coupon can be applied to a given purchase. Since the 15% store discount exceeds the amount of the 5% coupon left at home, it makes more sense to claim the 15% store discount and save the 5% coupon for another time.

Alternate interpretation

If, by some magic, both discounts could be applied, then the amount to be paid is $27.65, of which $2.65 exceeds the gift card amount. The calculation proceeds the same way, except that 20% is used instead of 15%.

The U.S. Dairy Industry wants to estimate the mean yearly milk consumption. A sample of 21 people reveals the mean yearly consum

PIT_PIT [208]

Correct question is;

The U.S. Dairy Industry wants to estimate the mean yearly milk consumption. A sample of 21 people reveals the mean yearly consumption to be 74 gallons with a standard deviation of 16 gallons.

a. What is the value of the population mean? What is the best estimate of this value?

b. Explain why we need to use the t distribution. What assumption do you need to make?

c. For a 90 percent confidence interval, what is the value of t?

d. Develop the 90 percent confidence interval for the population mean.

e. Would it be reasonable to conclude that the population mean is 68 gallons?

Answer:

A) Best estimate = 74 gallons

B) because the population standard deviation is unknown. The assumption we will make is that the population follows the normal distribution.

C) t = 1.725

D) 90% confidence interval for the population mean is (67.9772, 80.0228) gallons

E) Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Sample mean; x' = 74

Sample population; n = 21

Yearly Standard deviation; s = 16

A) We are not given the population mean.

So the closest estimate to the population mean would be the sample mean which is 74.

B) We are not given the population standard deviation and as such we can't use normal distribution. So what is used when population standard deviation is not known is called t - distribution table. The assumption we will make is that the population follows the normal distribution.

C) At confidence interval of 90% and DF = n - 1 = 21 - 1 = 20

From t-tables, the t = 1.725

D) Formula for the confidence interval is;

x' ± t(s/√n) = 74 ± 1.725(16/√21) = 74 ± 6.0228 = 67.9772 or 80.0228

Thus 90% confidence interval for the population mean is (67.9772, 80.0228) gallons

E) 68 gallons lies within the range of the confidence interval, thus we can say that "Yes, it is reasonable"
