Need help on this guys, help pls.

Write the number 3.7 as a mixed number let x

puteri [66]

3.7/1 = 3.7

multiply it through to make it a whole number.
x 10

37
_
10

then see how mant times 10 goes into it.
3 times. so 3 is your whole number. 7/10 remains.
that is your fraction.

What is the discontinuity and zero of the function f(x) = the quantity of 3 x squared plus x minus 4, all over x minus 1? A. Dis

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The correct option is D. Discontinuity at (1, 7), zero at (negative four thirds, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{The function is given to be : }f(x)=\frac{3x^2+x-4}{x-1}\\\\\implies f(x)=\frac{(3x+4)(x-1)}{(x-1)}$

To find the point of discontinuity :

Put the denominator equal to 0

⇒ x - 1 = 0

⇒ x = 1

Also, if the factor (x - 1) gets cancel, then it becomes a hole rather than a asymptote , ⇒ y = 3x + 4 at x = 1

⇒ y = 7

So, Point of discontinuity : (1, 7)

And the zero is : after cancelling the factor (x - 1) put the remaining factor = 0

⇒ 3x + 4 = 0

⇒ 3x = -4

⇒ x = negative four thirds ( zero of the function)

Therefore, The correct option is D. Discontinuity at (1, 7), zero at (negative four thirds, 0)

Suppose a population grows according to the logistic equation but is subject to a constant total harvest rate of H. If N(t) is t

Elenna [48]

Answer:

a) Equilibrium point : [ 947, 53 ]

b) N = 947 is stable equilibrium, N = 53 is unstable equilibrium

c) N0, the population will not go extinct

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Given that;

r = 2, k = 1000, H = 100

dN/dT = R(1 - N/k)N - H

so we substitute

dN/dt = 2( 1 - N/1000)N - 100

now for equilibrium solution, dN/dt = 0

so

2( 1 - N/1000)N - 100 = 0

((1000 - N)/1000)N = 50

N^2 - 1000N + 50000 = 0

N = 1000 ± √(-1000)² - 4(1)(50000)) / 2(1)

N = 947.213 OR 52.786

approximately

N = 947 OR 53

Therefore Equilibrium point : [ 947, 53 ]

b)

g(N) = 2( 1 - N/1000)N - 100

= 2N - N²/500 - 100

g'(N) = 2 - N/250

SO AT 947

g'(N) = g'(947) = 2 - 947/250 = -1.788 which is less than (<) 0

so N = 947 is stable equilibrium

now AT 53

g'(N) = g"(53) = 2 - 53/250 = 1.788 which is greater than (>) 0

so N = 53 is unstable equilibrium

The capacity k=1000

If the population is less than 53 then the population will become extinct but since the capacity is equal to 1000 then the population will not go extinct.

The time intervals between successive barges passing a certain point on a busy waterway have an exponential distribution with me

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

a) 0.4647

b) 24.6 secs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let T be interval between two successive barges

t(t) = λe^λt where t > 0

The mean of the exponential

E(T) = 1/λ

E(T) = 8

1/λ = 8

λ = 1/8

∴ t(t) = 1/8×e^-t/8 [ t > 0]

Now the probability we need

p[T<5] = ₀∫⁵ t(t) dt

=₀∫⁵ 1/8×e^-t/8 dt

= 1/8 ₀∫⁵ e^-t/8 dt

= 1/8 [ (e^-t/8) / -1/8 ]₀⁵

= - [ e^-t/8]₀⁵

= - [ e^-5/8 - 1 ]

= 1 - e^-5/8 = 0.4647

Therefore the probability that the time interval between two successive barges is less than 5 minutes is 0.4647

b)

Now we find t such that;

p[T>t] = 0.95

so

t_∫¹⁰ t(x) dx = 0.95

t_∫¹⁰ 1/8×e^-x/8 = 0.95

1/8 t_∫¹⁰ e^-x/8 dx = 0.95

1/8 [( e^-x/8 ) / - 1/8 ]¹⁰_t = 0.95

- [ e^-x/8]¹⁰_t = 0.96

- [ 0 - e^-t/8 ] = 0.95

e^-t/8 = 0.95

take log of both sides

log (e^-t/8) = log (0.95)

-t/8 = In(0.95)

-t/8 = -0.0513

t = 8 × 0.0513

t = 0.4104 (min)

so we convert to seconds

t = 0.4104 × 60

t = 24.6 secs

Therefore the time interval t such that we can be 95% sure that the time interval between two successive barges will be greater than t is 24.6 secs
