What is 2X to the power of 3 divided by -8X to the power of 4?

Answer: 8 = 23 (-8)4 = (23)4 = 212

1/(2048x)

Step-by-step explanation:Negative number raised to an even power is positive

For example let's look at (-7)6 , where (-7) , a negative number, is raised to 6 , an even exponent :

(-7)6 can be written as (-7)•(-7)•(-7)•(-7)•(-7)•(-7)

Now, using the rule that says minus times minus is plus, (-7)6 can be written as (49)•(49)•(49) which in turn can be written as (7)•(7)•(7)•(7)•(7)•(7) or 76 which is positive.

We proved that (-7)6 is equal to (7)6 which is a positive number

Using the same arguments as above, replacing (-7) by any negative number, and replacing the exponent 6 by any even exponent, we proved which had to be proved

Dividing exponential expressions :  x3 divided by x4 = x(3 - 4) = x(-1) = 1/x1 = 1/x

Final result :

1/2048x

Represent this statement as an equation: The difference of twice a number and 3 is 11.
yan [13]

Answer:

2x - 3 = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

"difference" means subtraction, so it is subtraction.

"twice a number" simply means 2x, since you do not know what the specified number is, it is x. and the 2 and just making it twice the number.

"Is 11" just means equals 11.

so, 2x - 3 = 11.

hope this helps!

Simplify each expression 2x-5y. If x=2/3 and y=1/4
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - 5y

2(2/3) - 5(1/4)

(2/1 x 2/3) - (5/1 x 1/4)

(4/3) - (5/4)

(4/3 x 4/4) - (5/4 x 3/3)

16/12 - 15/12

1/12

An airline experiences a no-show rate of 6%. What is the maximum number of reservations that it could accept for a flight with a
LekaFEV [45]

Let Xb be the number of reservations that are accommodated. Xb has the binomial distribution with n trials and success probability p = 0.94

In general, if X has the binomial distribution with n trials and a success probability of p then
P[Xb = x] = n!/(x!(n-x)!) * p^x * (1-p)^(n-x)
for values of x = 0, 1, 2, ..., n
P[Xb = x] = 0 for any other value of x.

To use the normal approximation to the binomial you must first validate that you have more than 10 expected successes and 10 expected failures. In other words, you need to have n * p > 10 and n * (1-p) > 10.

Some authors will say you only need 5 expected successes and 5 expected failures to use this approximation. If you are working towards the center of the distribution then this condition should be sufficient. However, the approximations in the tails of the distribution will be weaker espeically if the success probability is low or high. Using 10 expected successes and 10 expected failures is a more conservative approach but will allow for better approximations especially when p is small or p is large.

If Xb ~ Binomial(n, p) then we can approximate probabilities using the normal distribution where Xn is normal with mean μ = n * p, variance σ² = n * p * (1-p), and standard deviation σ

I have noted two different notations for the Normal distribution, one using the variance and one using the standard deviation. In most textbooks and in most of the literature, the parameters used to denote the Normal distribution are the mean and the variance. In most software programs, the standard notation is to use the mean and the standard deviation.

The probabilities are approximated using a continuity correction. We need to use a continuity correction because we are estimating discrete probabilities with a continuous distribution. The best way to make sure you use the correct continuity correction is to draw out a small histogram of the binomial distribution and shade in the values you need. The continuity correction accounts for the area of the boxes that would be missing or would be extra under the normal curve.

P( Xb < x) ≈ P( Xn < (x - 0.5) )
P( Xb > x) ≈ P( Xn > (x + 0.5) )
P( Xb ≤ x) ≈ P( Xn ≤ (x + 0.5) )
P( Xb ≥ x) ≈ P( Xn ≥ (x - 0.5) )
P( Xb = x) ≈ P( (x - 0.5) < Xn < (x + 0.5) )
P( a ≤ Xb ≤ b ) ≈ P( (a - 0.5) < Xn < (b + 0.5) )
P( a ≤ Xb < b ) ≈ P( (a - 0.5) < Xn < (b - 0.5) )
P( a < Xb ≤ b ) ≈ P( (a + 0.5) < Xn < (b + 0.5) )
P( a < Xb < b ) ≈ P( (a + 0.5) < Xn < (b - 0.5) )

In the work that follows X has the binomial distribution, Xn has the normal distribution and Z has the standard normal distribution.

Remember that for any normal random variable Xn, you can transform it into standard units via: Z = (Xn - μ ) / σ

In this question Xn ~ Normal(μ = 0.94 , σ = sqrt(0.94 * n * 0.06) )

Find n such that:

P(Xb ≤ 160) ≥ 0.95

approximate using the Normal distribution
P(Xn ≤ 160.5) ≥ 0.95

P( Z ≤ (160.5 - 0.94 * n) / sqrt(0.94 * n * 0.06)) ≥ 0.95

P( Z < 1.96 ) ≥ 0.95

so solve this equation for n

(160.5 - 0.94 * n) / sqrt(0.94 * n * 0.06) = 1.96

n = 164.396

n must be integer valued so take the ceiling and you have:

n = 165.

The air line can sell 165 tickets for the flight and accommodate all reservates at least 95% of the time

If you can understand that...

I need an explanation so I can understand this because am very confused
Goryan [66]

Answer:

Doesn’t go though origin

Step-by-step explanation:

It’s non proportional because the line doesn’t go though (0,0) being the origin

hope this helped :)

(if you still don’t understand ill try to explain further in the comments)
