Write the sum of 5x2 + 2x - 10 and 2x2 + 6 as a polynomial in standard form.

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

7x^2+2x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

a standard form is ax+by=c

5x^2 add 2x^2=7x^2 then -2x but when you have a -10 +6 you get -4 giving you the answer of 7x^2 +2x -4

F(x)=|x+3|-1 range and domain

KiRa [710]

Hey there! :)

Answer:

Domain: (-∞, ∞)

Range: [-1, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an absolute-value function. (Graphed below) The vertex is at (-3, -1) which consists of the minimum y-value of the function. Therefore:

Domain: (-∞, ∞)

Range: [-1, ∞)

USA Today reports that about 25% of all prison parolees become repeat offenders. Alice is a social worker whose job is to counse

pychu [463]

Answer:

a) $P(X=0)=(4C0)(0.75)^0 (1-0.75)^{4-0}=0.0039$

$P(X=1)=(4C1)(0.75)^1 (1-0.75)^{4-1}=0.0469$

$P(X=2)=(4C2)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-2}=0.211$

$P(X=3)=(4C3)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-3}=0.422$

$P(X=4)=(4C4)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-4}=0.316$

b) $E(X) = np = 4*0.75=3$

c) $Sd(X) =\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{4*0.75*(1-0.75)}=0.866$

d) $P(X \geq 3) \geq 0.98$

And the dsitribution that satisfy this is $X\sim Binom(n=9,p=0.75$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=4, p=1-0.25=0.75)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

Part a

$P(X=0)=(4C0)(0.75)^0 (1-0.75)^{4-0}=0.0039$

$P(X=1)=(4C1)(0.75)^1 (1-0.75)^{4-1}=0.0469$

$P(X=2)=(4C2)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-2}=0.211$

$P(X=3)=(4C3)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-3}=0.422$

$P(X=4)=(4C4)(0.75)^2 (1-0.75)^{4-4}=0.316$

Part b

The expected value is givn by:

$E(X) = np = 4*0.75=3$

Part c

For the standard deviation we have this:

$Sd(X) =\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{4*0.75*(1-0.75)}=0.866$

Part d

For this case the sample size needs to be higher or equal to 9. Since we need a value such that:

$P(X \geq 3) \geq 0.98$

And the dsitribution that satisfy this is $X\sim Binom(n=9,p=0.75$

We can verify this using the following code:

"=1-BINOM.DIST(3,9,0.75,TRUE)" and we got 0.99 and the condition is satisfied.
