A graph has time (years) on the x-axis and height (inches) on the y-axis. A line goes through points (2, 5) and (4, 10).
The graph shows the height of a tree over time. What can you deduce the rate of change to be from 2 years to 4 years ?
2 inch per year
2.5 inches per year
5 inches per year
10 inches per year
Answer:
2.5 inches per year
Step-by-step explanation:
We can deduce the rate of change by obtaining the slope or gradient of thw points given :
Gradient = Rise / Run.
Point A (2, 5) ; point B (4, 10)
x1 = 2 ; y1 = 5 ;x2 = 4 ; y2 = 10
Rise = y2 - y1 = 10 - 5 = 5
Run = x2 - x1 = 4 - 2 = 2
Rate of change = Gradient = 5 /2 = 2.5
Which is 2.5 inches per year
Answer: 2.5

A radioactive material is known to decay at a yearly rate proportional to the amount at each moment. There were 1000 grams of the material 10 years ago. There are 980 prams right now. What will be the amount of the material right after 20 years?
a. 10 ln 2/ln(1000/980)
b. 10^6/980
c. 980^3/10^6
d. 980^2/10^3
Answer:
Amount left is 941.95 g.
Step-by-step explanation:
initial amount = 1000 g
time = 10 years
amount left = 980 grams
Now
[tex]980 = 1000 e^{-\lambda t}\\\\e^{\lambda\times 10}= 1.02\\\\10 \lambda = ln 1.02\\\\\lambda = 1.98\times10^{-3} per year[/tex]
time t = 20 years
Let the amount is N.
[tex]980 = 1000 e^{-\lambda t}\\\\e^{\lambda\times 10}= 1.02\\\\10 \lambda = ln 1.02\\\\\lambda = 1.98\times10^{-3} per year\\N = 980 e^{- 1.98\times 10^{-3}\times 20}\\\\ln N = ln 980 - 0.0396\\\\ln N = 6.88 - 0.0396 = 6.86\\\\N = 941.95 g[/tex]

In the diagram below, LATE is an isosceles trapezoid with LE ≅ AT , LA = 24, ET = 40, and AT = 10. Altitudes LF and AG are drawn.
What is the length of LF?
Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
From the Trapezoid attached :
EF = GT
FG = LA
LE = AT = 10
LA = 24 ; FG = 24
FG + EF + GT = 40
Let : EF and GT = x
FG + 2x = 40
24 + 2x = 40
2x = 40 - 24
2x = 16
x = 16 ÷ 2 = 8
Hence, EF = GT = 8
Using Pythagoras :
Opposite² = hypotenus² - Adjacent²
LF² = LE² - FE²
LF² = 10² - 8²
LF² = 100 - 64
LF² = 36
LF = √36
LF = 6

If you draw a card with a value of three or less from a standard deck of cards, I will pay you $41. If not, you pay me $11. (Aces are considered the highest card in the deck). If you played this game 877 times how much would you expect to win or lose?
There are 12 cards with a value ≤ 3 (3 between 1, 2, and 3, and multiply by 4 to count each suit). So the probability of drawing one of these cards and thus winning the game is 12/52 = 3/13.
The expected winnings for playing this game once are
3/13 × ($41) + 10/13 × (-$11) = $1
so after playing 877 times, you can expect to win a total of $877.

when price of indomie noodles was lowered from #50 to #40 per unit, quantity demanded increases from 400 to 600 units per week. calculate the coefficient of price elasticity of demand and determine whether by lowering price this firm has made a wise decision
Answer:
The price elasticity of demand is -10
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]p_1,p_2 = 50,40[/tex]
[tex]q_1,q_2 = 400,500[/tex]
Solving (a): The coefficient of price elasticity of demand (k)
This is calculated as:
[tex]k = \frac{\triangle q}{\triangle p}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]k = \frac{500 - 400}{40 - 50}[/tex]
[tex]k = \frac{100}{-10}[/tex]
[tex]k = -10[/tex]
Because |k| > 0, then we can conclude that the company made a wise decision.

In a given region, the number of tornadoes in a one-week period is modeled by a Poisson distribution with mean 2. The numbers of tornadoes in different weeks are mutually independent. Calculate the probability that fewer than four tornadoes occur in a three-week period.
Answer:
0.1512 = 15.12% probability that fewer than four tornadoes occur in a three-week period.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
In which
x is the number of sucesses
e = 2.71828 is the Euler number
[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.
In a given region, the number of tornadoes in a one-week period is modeled by a Poisson distribution with mean 2
Three weeks, so [tex]\mu = 2*3 = 6[/tex]
Calculate the probability that fewer than four tornadoes occur in a three-week period.
This is:
[tex]P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0025[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.0149[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.0446[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-6}*6^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.0892[/tex]
Then
[tex]P(X < 4) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) = 0.0025 + 0.0149 + 0.0446 + 0.0892 = 0.1512[/tex]
0.1512 = 15.12% probability that fewer than four tornadoes occur in a three-week period.

(URGENT!!) Which graph models the function f(x) = -4(2)x? (2 points)
Answer:
2nd Graph
Step-by-step explanation:
Bases off the graphs, you gave me, I assume your the equation is
[tex]f(x) = - 4(2) {}^{x} [/tex]
The parent equation of this function is
[tex]f(x) = b {}^{x} [/tex]
Let say x=0
Using the rules of exponets, the y value must be 1 so a critical point is
(0,1)
The function is multiplied by -4.
This means the function is stretched in the y direction by 4 and reflected over the x axis. So our new point will be
(0,-4).
The base 2 the function will get compressed by 1/2.

4. One in four people in the US owns individual stocks. You randomly select 12 people and ask them if they own individual stocks. a. Find the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the resulting probability distribution. (3pts) b. Find the probability that the number of people who own individual stocks is exactly six. (3pts) c. Find probability that the number of people who say they own individual stocks is at least two. (3pts) d. Find the probability that the number of people who say they own individual stocks is at most two. (3pts) e. Are the events in part c. and in part d. mutually exclusive
Answer:
a. The mean is 3, the variance is 2.25 and the standard deviation is 1.5.
b. 0.0401 = 4.01% probability that the number of people who own individual stocks is exactly six.
c. 0.1584 = 15.84% probability that the number of people who say they own individual stocks is at least two.
d. 0.3907 = 39.07% probability that the number of people who say they own individual stocks is at most two
e. Both cases include one common outcome, that is, 2 people owning stocks, so the events are not mutually exclusive.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they own stocks, or they do not. The probability of a person owning stocks is independent of any other person, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
One in four people in the US owns individual stocks.
This means that [tex]p = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]
You randomly select 12 people and ask them if they own individual stocks.
This means that [tex]n = 12[/tex]
a. Find the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the resulting probability distribution.
The mean of the binomial distribution is:
[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]
So
[tex]E(X) = 12(0.25) = 3[/tex]
The variance is:
[tex]V(X) = np(1-p)[/tex]
So
[tex]V(X) = 12(0.25)(0.75) = 2.25[/tex]
Standard deviation is the square root of the variance, so:
[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{2.25} = 1.5[/tex]
The mean is 3, the variance is 2.25 and the standard deviation is 1.5.
b. Find the probability that the number of people who own individual stocks is exactly six.
This is P(X = 6). So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 6) = C_{12,6}.(0.25)^{6}.(0.75)^{6} = 0.0401[/tex]
0.0401 = 4.01% probability that the number of people who own individual stocks is exactly six.
c. Find probability that the number of people who say they own individual stocks is at least two.
This is:
[tex]P(X \geq 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)[/tex]
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{12,0}.(0.25)^{0}.(0.75)^{12} = 0.0317[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{12,1}.(0.25)^{1}.(0.75)^{11} = 0.1267[/tex]
[tex]P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.0317 + 0.1267 = 0.1584[/tex]
0.1584 = 15.84% probability that the number of people who say they own individual stocks is at least two.
d. Find the probability that the number of people who say they own individual stocks is at most two.
This is:
[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{12,0}.(0.25)^{0}.(0.75)^{12} = 0.0317[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{12,1}.(0.25)^{1}.(0.75)^{11} = 0.1267[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{12,2}.(0.25)^{2}.(0.75)^{10} = 0.2323[/tex]
[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.0317 + 0.1267 + 0.2323 = 0.3907[/tex]
0.3907 = 39.07% probability that the number of people who say they own individual stocks is at most two.
e. Are the events in part c. and in part d. mutually exclusive
Both cases include one common outcome, that is, 2 people owning stocks, so the events are not mutually exclusive.

Identify the sampling techniques used, and discuss potential sources of bias (if any). Assume the population of interest is the student body at a university. Questioning students as they leave an academic building, a researcher asks 341 students about their eating habits.
1. What type of sampling is used?
a. Systematic sampling is used, because students are selected from a list, with a fixed interval between students on the list.
b. Cluster sampling is used because students are divided into groups, groups are chosen at random, and every student in one of those groups is sampled.
c. Simple random sampling is used because students are chosen at random.
d. Stratified sampling is used because students are divided into groups, and students are chosen at random from these groups.
e. Convenience sampling is used because students are chosen due to convenience of location.
2. What potential sources of bias are present if any. Select all that apply.
a. University students may not be representative of all people in their age group.
b. The sample only consists of members of the population that are easy to get. These members may not be representative of the population.
c. Because of the personal nature of the question, students may not answer honestly.
d. There are no potential sources of bias.
Answer:
1. e. Convenience sampling is used because students are chosen due to convenience of location.
2. a. University students may not be representative of all people in their age group.
Step-by-step explanation:
Samples may be classified as:
Convenient: Sample drawn from a conveniently available pool.
Random: Basically, put all the options into a hat and drawn some of them.
Systematic: Every kth element is taken. For example, you want to survey something on the street, you interview every 5th person, for example.
Cluster: Divides population into groups, called clusters, and each element in the cluster is surveyed.
Stratified: Also divides the population into groups. However, then only some elements of the group are surveyed.
Questioning students as they leave an academic building, a researcher asks 341 students about their eating habits.
Students sampled as they leave the build, which is convenience, in this case convenience of location, which means that the correct answer to question 1 is given by option e.
2. What potential sources of bias are present if any. Select all that apply.
Only members of one group are asked(university students), and this may not be representative of the rest of the population, which means that the correct answer to question 2 is given by option a.
