Answer:

by clumbing the ladder

Step-by-step explanation:

The base of the ladder should be placed so that it is one foot away from the building for every four feet of hight to where the ladder rests against the building. This is known as the 4 to 1 rule.

An equilateral triangle has a perimeter of 48 centimeters. If the triangle is dilated by a factor of 0.75, what is the length of
elena55 [62]
The length of each side is 28 cm. 
the perimeter of the equilateral triangle is 48 cm. To find each side of the original triangle, you do 48/3=16cm. since the triangle dilate by 0.75, then you can just do 0.75*16=12cm. then you have to add 12 to 16 because the triangle gets bigger by 12 cm. so 16+12=28 cm.

Suppose each of the following data sets is a simple random sample from some population. For each dataset, make a normal QQ plot.
adell [148]

Answer:

a) For this case the histogram is not too skewed and we can say that is approximately symmetrical so then we can conclude that this dataset is similar to a normal distribution

b) For this case the data is skewed to the left and we can't assume that we have the normality assumption.

c) This last case the histogram is not symmetrical and the data seems to be skewed.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following data:

(a)data = c(7,13.2,8.1,8.2,6,9.5,9.4,8.7,9.8,10.9,8.4,7.4,8.4,10,9.7,8.6,12.4,10.7,11,9.4)

We can use the following R code to get the histogram

> x1<-c(7,13.2,8.1,8.2,6,9.5,9.4,8.7,9.8,10.9,8.4,7.4,8.4,10,9.7,8.6,12.4,10.7,11,9.4)

> hist(x1,main="Histogram a)")

The result is on the first figure attached.

For this case the histogram is not too skewed and we can say that is approximately symmetrical so then we can conclude that this dataset is similar to a normal distribution

(b)data = c(2.5,1.8,2.6,-1.9,1.6,2.6,1.4,0.9,1.2,2.3,-1.5,1.5,2.5,2.9,-0.1)

> x2<- c(2.5,1.8,2.6,-1.9,1.6,2.6,1.4,0.9,1.2,2.3,-1.5,1.5,2.5,2.9,-0.1)

> hist(x2,main="Histogram b)")

The result is on the first figure attached.

For this case the data is skewed to the left and we can't assume that we have the normality assumption.

(c)data = c(3.3,1.7,3.3,3.3,2.4,0.5,1.1,1.7,12,14.4,12.8,11.2,10.9,11.7,11.7,11.6)

> x3<-c(3.3,1.7,3.3,3.3,2.4,0.5,1.1,1.7,12,14.4,12.8,11.2,10.9,11.7,11.7,11.6)

> hist(x3,main="Histogram c)")

The result is on the first figure attached.

This last case the histogram is not symmetrical and the data seems to be skewed.

Determine whether the following series converge or diverge
Mars2501 [29]
An alternating series \sum\limits_n(-1)^na_n converges if |(-1)^na_n|=|a_n| is monotonic and a_n\to0 as n\to\infty. Here a_n=\dfrac1{\ln(n+1)}.

Let f(x)=\ln(x+1). Then f'(x)=\dfrac1{x+1}, which is positive for all x>-1, so \ln(x+1) is monotonically increasing for x>-1. This would mean \dfrac1{\ln(x+1)} must be a monotonically decreasing sequence over the same interval, and so must a_n.

Because a_n is monotonically increasing, but will still always be positive, it follows that a_n\to0 as n\to\infty.

So, \sum\limits_n(-1)^na_n converges.
