aleksley [76]

Answer:

680 games

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that 681 tennis players want to play an elimination tournament.

1st round:

One of 681 players, chosen at random, sits out that round and 680 players play. There will be 340 winners plus one player which sits - 341 players for the next round and 340 games

2nd round:

There will be 170 winners plus one player which sits - 171 players for the next round and 170 games

3rd round:

There will be 85 winners plus one player which sits - 86 players for the next round and 85 games

4th round:

There will be 43 winners - 43 players for the next round and 43 games

5th round:

There will be 21 winners plus one player which sits - 22 players for the next round and 21 games

6th round:

There will be 11 winners  - 11 players for the next round and 11 games

7th round:

There will be 5 winners plus one player which sits - 6 players for the next round and 5 games

8th round:

There will be 3 winners  - 3 players for the next round and 3 games

9th round:

There will be 1 winner plus one player which sits - 2 players for the next round and 1 game

10th round - final:

1 champion and 1 game.

In total,

340 + 170 + 85 + 43 + 21 + 11 + 5 + 3 + 1 + 1 = 680 games

For the function f(x) = 7/2x-16, what is the difference quotient for all nonzero values of h?
sergey [27]

Answer:

\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{ h} = \frac{7}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = \frac{7}{2}x - 16

Required

The difference quotient for h

The difference quotient is calculated as:

\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{ h}

Calculate f(x + h)

f(x) = \frac{7}{2}x - 16

f(x+h) = \frac{7}{2}(x+h) - 16

f(x+h) = \frac{7}{2}x+ \frac{7}{2}h- 16

The numerator of \frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{ h} is:

f(x + h) - f(x) =  \frac{7}{2}x+ \frac{7}{2}h- 16 -(\frac{7}{2}x - 16)

f(x + h) - f(x) =  \frac{7}{2}x+ \frac{7}{2}h- 16 -\frac{7}{2}x + 16

Collect like terms

f(x + h) - f(x) =  \frac{7}{2}x  -\frac{7}{2}x + \frac{7}{2}h- 16 + 16

f(x + h) - f(x) = \frac{7}{2}h

So, we have:

\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{ h} = \frac{7}{2}h \div h

Rewrite as:

\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{ h} = \frac{7}{2}h * \frac{1}{h}

\frac{f(x + h) - f(x)}{ h} = \frac{7}{2}

Two similar circles are shown. The circumference of the larger circle, with radius OB, is 3 times the circumference of the small
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

The circumference of the smaller circle is:

C =  2*pi*x/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that for a circle of radius R the circumference is given by:

C = 2*pi*R

where pi = 3.14...

Here we have two circles, A and B, where B is the larger circle and A is the smaller circle.

We know that:

The circumference of B is 3 times the circumference of A.

The radius of circle B is: OB = x

The radius of circle A is: OA

We want to find an expression of OA.

The circumference of circle B will be:

C(B) = 2*pi*OB = 2*pi*x

The circumference of circle A will be:

C(A) = 2*pi*OA

And we know that the circumference of circle B is 3 times the circumference of circle A, then:

C(B) = 3*C(A)

replacing the equations for the circumferences, we get:

2*pi*x = 3*(2*pi*OA)

dividing both sides by 2*pi, we get:

x = 3*OA

Now we want to solve this for OA, then we need to isolate it,

x/3 = OA

We can conclude that the radius of the smaller circle is equal to x/3.

Then the circumference of circle A is:

C(A) = 2*pi*x/3

Suppose that two electronic components in the guidance system for a missile operate independently and that each has a length of
lord [1]

Answer:

The probability density function for the average length of life of the two components is f(x) = 0.5e^{-0.5x}

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential distribution:

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following probability density:

f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}

In which \mu = \frac{1}{m} is the decay parameter.

Each missile has a length of life governed by the exponential distribution with mean 1 (with measurements in hundreds of hours). Find the probability density function for the average length of life of the two components.

2, each with mean 1 means that m = 2*1 = 2, \mu = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5

So the probability density function is:

f(x) = 0.5e^{-0.5x}
