Mathematics

Mariulka [41]3 years ago

Answer:

2(1-x)+3= -8

2×1-2×x+3= -8

2-2x+3= -8

-2x+2+3= -8

-2x+5= -8

-2x+5-5= -8-5

-2x = -13

-2x÷(-2) = -13÷(-2)

x = 6 and 1/2.

Thank you.

2-2x+3 = -8

5-2x = -8

-2x = -8 - 5

-2x = -13

divide both sides by 2.

x = 13/2 or 7.5

Let R be the region in the first quadrant of the​ xy-plane bounded by the hyperbolas xyequals​1, xyequals9​, and the lines yequa
Tema [17]

Answer:

The area can be written as

\int\limits_1^2 \int\limits_1^3 u(\frac{1}{v} - v \, ln(v)) \, du \, dv = 0.2274

And the value of it is approximately 1.8117

Step-by-step explanation:

x = u/v

y = uv

Lets analyze the lines bordering R replacing x and y by their respective expressions with u and v.

  • x*y = u/v * uv = u², therefore, x*y = 1 when u² = 1. Also x*y = 9 if and only if u² = 9
  • x=y only if u/v = uv, And that only holds if u = 0 or 1/v = v, and 1/v = v if and only if v² = 1. Similarly y = 4x if and only if 4u/v = uv if and only if v² = 4

Therefore, u² should range between 1 and 9 and v² ranges between 1 and 4. This means that u is between 1 and 3 and v is between 1 and 2 (we are not taking negative values).

Lets compute the partial derivates of x and y over u and v

x_u = 1/v

x_v = u*ln(v)

y_u = v

y_v = u

Therefore, the Jacobian matrix is

\left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{1}{v}&u \, ln(v)\\v&u\end{array}\right]

and its determinant is u/v - uv * ln(v) = u * (1/v - v ln(v))

In order to compute the integral, we can find primitives for u and (1/v-v ln(v)) (which can be separated in 1/v and -vln(v) ). For u it is u²/2. For 1/v it is ln(v), and for -vln(v) , we can solve it by using integration by parts:

\int -v \, ln(v) \, dv = - (\frac{v^2 \, ln(v)}{2} - \int \frac{v^2}{2v} \, dv) = \frac{v^2}{4} - \frac{v^2 \, ln(v)}{2}

Therefore,

\int\limits_1^2 \int\limits_1^3 u(\frac{1}{v} - v \, ln(v)) \, du \, dv = \int\limits_1^2 (\frac{1}{v} - v \, ln(v) ) (\frac{u^2}{2}\, |_{u=1}^{u=3}) \, dv= \\4* \int\limits_1^2 (\frac{1}{v} - v\,ln(v)) \, dv = 4*(ln(v) + \frac{v^2}{4} - \frac{v^2\,ln(v)}{2} \, |_{v=1}^{v=2}) = 0.2274

In the function y=-1/2(x-1)^+3what effect does the negative sign
klio [65]

Answer:

It's D, reflects over the x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have a negative symbol outside the parentheses, all the y values are being multiplied by -1. This means that the points will have the same x, just that the y values will all be the opposite sign.

Suppose you roll n ≥ 1 fair dice. Let X be the random variable for the sum of their values, and let Y be the random variable for
noname [10]

<u>Answer:</u>

X and Y are stochastically dependent RVs .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let ,

X = sum of the values that come up after throwing n (≥ 1) fare dice.

Y = number of times an odd number come up.

Let, n = 3

then, P(X =6) = p (say) clearly 0 < p < 1

and P (Y = 3) = \frac{1}{8}

And,

P( X = 6, Y = 3) = 0  ≠ P(X = 6) \times P(Y= 3)

Hence, X and Y are stochastically  dependent  RVs

Tyler read 2/15 of a book on Monday, 1/3 of it on Tuesday, 2/9 of it on Wednesday and 3/4 of the remainder on Thursday. If he st
Lena [83]
Fractions are normally parts of a whole thing such that they complement it. In this case, monday= 2/15 of the book was read, Tuesday= 1/3 , wednesday =2/9, Thus for the three days he will have read a fraction of (2/15+1/3+2/9) =31/45. The remainder will be 1- 31/45= 14/45, so on Thursday he read 3/4 × 14/45 = 7/30. On friday he read a fraction of 14/45 - 7/30 = 7/90.
Therefore, a fraction of 7/90 is equivalent to 14 pages. Thus the whole book was 14 × 90/7 =180 pages
= 180 pages
