What are the zeros of this function?

Hunter-Best [27]

If you need the y zero, you would take the 2 points on the graph of (3, 0) and (6, 0) so the 2 zero’s are 3, and 6.

The number of text messages sent daily by a student is a poisson random variable with parameter λ=5 .in a class with 20 independ

Rudik [331]

This problem is a combination of the Poisson distribution and binomial distribution.

First, we need to find the probability of a single student sending less than 6 messages in a day, i.e.
P(X<6)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3)+P(X=4)+P(X=5)
=0.006738+0.033690+0.084224+0.140374+0.175467+0.175467
= 0.615961

For ALL 20 students to send less than 6 messages, the probability is
P=C(20,20)*0.615961^20*(1-0.615961)^0
=6.18101*10^(-5) or approximately
=0.00006181

A ball is dropped from a certain height. The function below represents the height f(n), in feet, to which the ball bounces at th

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

9 represents the initial height from which the ball was dropped

Step-by-step explanation:

Bouncing of a ball can be expressed by a Geometric Progression. The function for the given scenario is:

$f(n)=9(0.7)^{n}$

The general formula for the geometric progression modelling this scenario is:

$f(n)=f_{0}(r)^{n}$

Here,

$f_{0}$ represents the initial height i.e. the height from which the object was dropped.

r represents the percentage the object covers with respect to the previous bounce.

Comparing the given scenario with general equation, we can write:

$f_{0}$ = 9

r = 0.7 = 70%

i.e. the ball was dropped from the height of 9 feet initially and it bounces back to 70% of its previous height every time.
