Answer:

3 + 12 + 48 + 192 + 768 = \sum\limits^4_{n=0} 3 * 4^n

4 + 32 + 256 + 2048 + 16384 = \sum\limits^4_{n=0} 4 * 8^n

2 + 6 + 18 + 54 + 162 = \sum\limits^4_{n=0} 2* 3^n

3 + 15 + 75 + 375 + 1875 = \sum\limits^4_{n=0} 3* 5^n

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for complete question

Required

Match equivalent expressions

Solving (a):

3 + 12 + 48 + 192 + 768

The expression can be written as:

3 \to 3*4^{0 --- 0

12 \to 3 * 4^{1 ---- 1

48 \to 3 * 4^{2 --- 2

192 \to 3 * 4^{3 ---- 3

768 \to 3 * 4^{4 ---- 4

For the nth term, the expression is:

Term = 3 * 4^{n ---- n

So, the summation is:

3 + 12 + 48 + 192 + 768 = \sum\limits^4_{n=0} 3 * 4^n

Solving (b):

4 + 32 + 256 + 2048 + 16384

The expression can be written as:

4 \to 4 * 8^0 --- 0

32 \to 4 * 8^1 ---- 1

256 \to 4 * 8^2 --- 2

2048 \to 4 * 8^3 ---- 3

16384 \to 4 * 8^4 ---- 4

For the nth term, the expression is:

Term \to 4 * 8^n ---- n

So, the summation is:

4 + 32 + 256 + 2048 + 16384 = \sum\limits^4_{n=0} 4 * 8^n

Solving (c):

2 + 6 + 18 + 54 + 162

The expression can be written as:

2 \to 2 * 3^0 --- 0

6 \to 2 * 3^1 ---- 1

18 \to 2 * 3^2 --- 2

54 \to 2 * 3^3 ---- 3

162 \to 2 * 3^4 ---- 4

For the nth term, the expression is:

Term \to 2 * 3^n ---- n

So, the summation is:

2 + 6 + 18 + 54 + 162 = \sum\limits^4_{n=0} 2* 3^n

Solving (d):

3 + 15 + 75 + 375 + 1875

The expression can be written as:

3 \to 3 * 5^0 --- 0

15 \to 3 * 5^1 ---- 1

75 \to 3 * 5^2 --- 2

375 \to 3 * 5^3 ---- 3

1875 \to 3 * 5^4 ---- 4

For the nth term, the expression is:

Term \to 3 * 5^n ---- n

So, the summation is:

3 + 15 + 75 + 375 + 1875 = \sum\limits^4_{n=0} 3* 5^n

Can anyone help please????
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

Option A. (f_of^{-1})(-2)=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Point to remember while solving the question of function,

(f_of^{-1})(x)=x

Here, 'f' is the parent function and f^{-1} is the inverse of the function 'f'.

So for the given function,

f(x) = 2x - 2

(f_of^{-1})(x)=x

For x = -2

(f_of^{-1})(-2)=(-2)

Therefore, Option A will be the correct answer.

Find f(-5) and f(12) for each piecewise function f(x){-4x+3 if x<3
Law Incorporation [45]
<h3>Answers:</h3>
  • f(-5) = 23
  • f(12) = 433

==================================================

Explanation:

The given piecewise function is

f(x) = \begin{cases}-4x+3 \ \text{ if } \ x < 3\\-x^3 \ \text{ if } \ 3 \le x \le 8\\3x^2+1 \ \text{ if } \ x > 8\end{cases}

At first piecewise functions may be strange confusing things, but they aren't so bad. I like to think of it like this: f(x) is a function that changes its identity based on what the input x is. We have three situations

  • f(x) = -4x+3 when x < 3
  • f(x) = -x^3 when 3 \le x \le 8
  • f(x) = 3x^2+1 when x > 8

In a sense, we have three different functions but they are combined somehow.

If x is smaller than 3, then we go for the first definition. Or if x is between 3 and 8, then we go for the second definition. Or if x is larger than 8, then we go for the third definition.

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

f(-5) means f(x) when x = -5. We see that -5 is smaller than 3, so x = -5 makes x < 3 true. We'll use the first definition

f(x) = -4x+3

f(-5) = -4(-5)+3

f(-5) = 20+3

f(-5) = 23

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

Now the input is x = 12. This is larger than 8. In other words, x = 12 makes x > 8 true. We'll use the third definition

f(x) = 3x^2+1

f(12) = 3(12)^2+1

f(12) = 3(144)+1

f(12) = 432+1

f(12) = 433

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

Side notes:

  • We won't use the second definition since we don't have any x inputs between 3 and 8
  • To say "less than or equal to" on a keyboard, you can write "<=" without quotes. For example, x \le 5 is the same as x<=5

Mr. And Mrs. Doran have a genetic history such that the probability that a child being born to them with a certain trait is 0.14
poizon [28]

Answer:

0.938

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question :

p = 0.14

Number of children, n = 7

P(x ≤ 2) = P(2) + P(1) + P(0)

Using binomial probability :

P(x =x) = nCx  * p^x * (1 - p)^(n - x)

We could also use the binomial probability calculator :

P(x ≤ 2) = 0.3479 + 0.3965 + 0.1936

P(x ≤ 2) = 0.938

A metal worker has several 1-kilogram bars of a metal alloy that contain 23% copper and several 1-kilogram bars that contain 79%
astraxan [27]

Answer:

30 each of 23% bars and 18 each of 79% bars

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the number of 1 kg 23% copper bars, and y is the number of 1 kg 79% copper bars, then:

x + y = 48

0.23x + 0.79y = 0.44(48)

Substituting and solving:

0.23x + 0.79(48-x) = 0.44(48)

0.23x + 37.92 - 0.79x = 21.12

16.8 = 0.56x

x = 30

y = 48 - x

y = 18

You need 30 each of 23% bars and 18 each of 79% bars.
