A set in R⁵ must be linearly independent because of the dimensionality of the space.

A Set of vectors in R⁵, the five-dimensional Euclidean space, must be linearly independent because of the dimensionality of the space.

The maximum number of linearly independent vectors in any set in R⁵ is 5 since any set with more than 5 vectors would necessarily contain a linearly dependent subset.

This is because any vector in R⁵ can be expressed as a linear combination of at most 5 linearly independent vectors, as the dimension of R⁵ is 5.

Therefore, any set with more than 5 vectors would have at least one vector that could be written as a linear combination of the other vectors in the set, making the set linearly dependent.

Area of rectangle formula:

Given:

Find the missing side length:

Answer:

7.2cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We are here given that, the area of a rectangle is 33.12cm² and one of the side is 4.6cm .

We are interested in finding the length of the other side,

As we know that the area of rectangle is calculated using the formula,

Area = l * b

where l is the length and b is the breadth.

Now substitute the respective values,

33.12cm² = l * 4.6cm

l = 33.12cm²/4.6cm

l = 7.2 cm

Hence the value of second side is 7.2cm

There is no value of x that solves the proportion (x^2-x-12)/(x+5) = x-6.

The proportion for this problem is defined by the equation presented as follows:

(x^2-x-12)/(x+5) = x-6.

As the measures are proportional, we can apply cross multiplication, hence:

x² - x - 12 = (x + 5)(x - 6)

x² - x - 12 = x² - x - 30

-12 = -30.

-12 = -30 is a false statement, hence there is no value of x which can solve the proportion (x^2-x-12)/(x+5)=x-6 presented in this problem.

The problem asks for the value of x that solves the proportion (x^2-x-12)/(x+5) = x-6.

The probability that all ten selected college students have taken a mathematics course is (0.8)^10 = 0.1074 (rounded to four decimal places).

Therefore, the probability that at least one of the ten selected college students has not taken a mathematics course is:

1 - 0.1074 = 0.8926 (rounded to four decimal places).

So the answer is 0.8926, which is closest to option C (0.7927).

(a) By using the exponential density function, the probability that a customer warts less than a second for credit card approval is 0.334

(b) The probability that a customer waits more than 3 seconds is 0.154

(c) The minimum approval time for the slowest 5% of transactions is 4.013 seconds

(a) To find the probability that a customer waits less than a second for credit card approval, we need to use the exponential density function:

f(x) = [tex]\lambda e^{-\lambda x}[/tex]

Where λ is the rate parameter, which in this case is the reciprocal of the mean approval time. So, λ = 1/1.6 = 0.625.

The probability that a customer waits less than a second can be calculated by integrating the density function from 0 to 1:

P(X < 1) = ∫[tex]0^1 \lambda e^{-\lambda x}[/tex] dx

P(X < 1) = [tex][-e^{-\lambda x}]0^1[/tex]

P(X < 1) = [tex]-e^{(-0.625)}[/tex] + 1

P(X < 1) = 0.334

Therefore, the probability that a customer waits less than a second for credit card approval is 0.334.

(b) To find the probability that a customer waits more than 3 seconds for credit card approval, we can use the same exponential density function and integrate from 3 to infinity:

P(X > 3) = ∫[tex]3^{\infty} \lambda e^{-\lambda x}[/tex] dx

P(X > 3) = [[tex]-e^{-\lambda x}[/tex])][tex]3^{\infty}[/tex]

P(X > 3) = [tex]e^{-1.875}[/tex]

P(X > 3) = 0.154

Therefore, the probability that a customer waits more than 3 seconds for credit card approval is 0.154.

(c) We can use the exponential distribution's inverse function to find this value:

P(X > x) = 0.05

[tex]e^{-\lambda x}[/tex] = 0.05

-xλ = ln(0.05)

x = ln(0.05)/(-λ)

x = ln(0.05)/(-0.625)

x = 4.013 seconds

Therefore, the minimum approval time for the slowest 5% of transactions is 4.013 seconds.

Answer:

Let's call the number we are looking for "x". We are told that the digit 8 appears ten times as often in "x" as it does in 18.

The digit 8 appears once in the number 18, so it must appear 10 times in "x".

Let's count the number of 8's in "x" in terms of the number of digits of "x".

If "x" has 1 digit, then it cannot have 10 8's, so we can rule out this case.

If "x" has 2 digits, then the maximum number of 8's it can have is 9 (e.g., 88). This is still not enough, so we can rule out this case as well.

If "x" has 3 digits, then the maximum number of 8's it can have is 27 (e.g., 888), which is enough.

Therefore, the number we are looking for is a 3-digit number that contains 10 8's. We can write such a number as:

x = 888x8x8x8

where "x" can be any digit other than 8.

Note that there are other 3-digit numbers that contain 10 8's, but this is one possible solution.

The values of e and f in the given equation are: e = 2√3 ± √(4√3), e = 2√3 ± 2√2, and f = 4√3.

Equations containing radicals can be made simpler by solving the resultant equation after squaring both sides of the equation to remove the radical. Nonetheless, caution must be exercised to guarantee that any solutions found are reliable and adhere to any variables' limitations.

The given equation is [tex](e - 2\sqrt{3} )^2[/tex] = f - 20√3.

Expanding the left side of the equation we have:

[tex](e - 2\sqrt{3} )^2[/tex] = (e - 2√3)(e - 2√3)

= [tex]e^2[/tex] - 2e√3 - 2e√3 + 12

= [tex]e^2[/tex] - 4e√3 + 12

Substituting back in the function

[tex]e^2[/tex] - 4e√3 + 12 = f - 20√3

[tex]e^2[/tex] - 4e√3 - f + 20√3 - 12 = 0

Using the quadratic formula:

e = [4√3 ± √(16*3 + 4(f - 20√3 + 12))] / 2

e = [4√3 ± √(4f - 64√3)] / 2

e = 2√3 ± √(f - 16√3)

Now for,

(e - 2√3)² = f - 20√3

(2√3 + √(f - 16√3) - 2√3)² = f - 20√3

f - 20√3 = f - 16√3

f = 4√3

Hence, the values of e and f in the given equation are: e = 2√3 ± √(4√3), e = 2√3 ± 2√2, and f = 4√3.

c) The weight is greater than 400 grams: [tex]$P(X > 400)=0.0304$[/tex].

Let X be the weight of a small Starbucks coffee. We are given that X is normally distributed with mean [tex]$\mu=385$[/tex] grams and standard deviation [tex]$\sigma=8$[/tex].

We want to find the weight that corresponds to each of the following events:

a) The weight is less than 380 grams.

b) The weight is between 375 and 395 grams.

c) The weight is greater than 400 grams.

To solve these problems, we first standardize the distribution by finding the corresponding z-scores using the formula:

[tex]$z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}$$[/tex]

a) The weight is less than 380 grams.

We want to find P(X<380). We can find the z-score for X=380 as follows:

[tex]$z=\frac{380-385}{8}=-0.625$$[/tex]

Using a standard normal table or calculator, we find that the probability P(Z<-0.625)=0.266. Therefore,

[tex]$P(X < 380)=P\left(Z < -\frac{0.625}{1}\right)=0.266$$[/tex]

b) The weight is between 375 and 395 grams.

We want to find [tex]$P(375 < X < 395)$[/tex]. We can find the z-scores for X=375 and X=395 as follows:

[tex]$z_1=\frac{375-385}{8}=-1.25,\quad z_2=\frac{395-385}{8}=1.25$$[/tex]

Using a standard normal table or calculator, we find that the probability P(-1.25<Z<1.25)=0.7887. Therefore,

[tex]$P(375 < X < 395)=P\left(-1.25 < Z < 1.25\right)=0.7887$$[/tex]

c) The weight is greater than 400 grams.

We want to find P(X>400). We can find the z-score for X=400 as follows:

[tex]$z=\frac{400-385}{8}=1.875$$[/tex]

Using a standard normal table or calculator, we find that the probability P(Z>1.875)=0.0304. Therefore,

[tex]$P(X > 400)=P\left(Z > \frac{1.875}{1}\right)=0.0304$$[/tex]

Therefore, the weight that corresponds to each of the events are:

a) The weight is less than 380 grams: [tex]$P(X < 380)=0.266$[/tex].

b) The weight is between 375 and 395 grams: [tex]$P(375 < X < 395)=0.7887$[/tex].

Here, y can be expressed as a linear combination of a1, a2, and a3 is y = (-1/8) a1 + (9/4) a2 - (5/2) a3.

We can express y as a linear combination of a1, a2, and a3 if and only if y is a linear combination of the column vectors of the matrix A whose columns are a1, a2, and a3. We can write this as:

y = c1 a1 + c2 a2 + c3 a3

where c1, c2, and c3 are constants to be determined. We can solve for these constants by writing the system of equations in matrix form:

A [c1; c2; c3] = y

where [c1; c2; c3] is a column vector of the constants c1, c2, and c3. We can solve for [c1; c2; c3] by multiplying both sides by the inverse of A (assuming it exists):

[c1; c2; c3] = A^(-1) y

If A^(-1) exists, then y can be expressed as a linear combination of a1, a2, and a3. Otherwise, y cannot be expressed as a linear combination of a1, a2, and a3.

For y = [1 2 4 0], we have:

A = [-1 3 0 1; 3 1 2 0; 1 1 1 1]

We can compute the inverse of A using row reduction:

[A | I] = [-1 3 0 1 | 1 0 0;

3 1 2 0 | 0 1 0;

1 1 1 1 | 0 0 1]

[R2 - 3R1, R3 - R1] = [-1 3 0 1 | 1 0 0;

0 -8 2 -3 | -3 1 0;

0 -2 1 0 | -1 0 1]

[R2 / (-8), R3 + 2R2] = [1/8 -3/8 0 3/8 | 3/8 -1/8 0;

0 1 0 -1/4 | 3/4 -1/4 0;

0 0 1 -1/2 | 1/2 -1/2 1]

Therefore, A^(-1) = [1/8 -3/8 0 3/8;

0 1 0 -1/4;

0 0 1 -1/2;

0 0 0 0]

We can now compute [c1; c2; c3]:

[c1; c2; c3] = A^(-1) y = [1/8 -3/8 0 3/8;

0 1 0 -1/4;

0 0 1 -1/2;

0 0 0 0] [1; 2; 4; 0] = [-1/8; 9/4; -5/2; 0]

To find: r%

Soln: By formula, A = 73000*(1+r/100)^18

=> (104/73)^1/18 = (100+r)/100

=> 1.0198 = 100+r/100

=> 101.98 -100 = r

=> 1.98 = r

To the nearest percent, 2 = r
