What are the zeroes of the polynomial function?

Answer: If the rate at which the flu spreads is proportional to the number of interactions between students who have the flu and students who have not been exposed to it, we can write:

dx/dt = kx(1000 - x)

where x is the number of students who have contracted the flu, k is the constant of proportionality, and t is time. The term x(1000 - x) represents the number of interactions between the students who have the flu and the students who have not been exposed to it. The factor of 1000 - x represents the number of students who have not yet been exposed to the flu.

Thus, the differential equation models the spread of the flu on the isolated college campus as the number of people who have contracted the flu changes over time due to the number of interactions between the students who have the flu and the students who have not been exposed to it.

A compound event can be described for flipping a coin two times and getting at least 1 head.

Compound event is defined as the events in which there are more than one event happens together.

All the outcomes of the events sum up the probability to 1.

We have to describe a compound event where the probability is in between 50% and 80%.

That is, probability is in between 0.5 and 0.8.

That is, there is more than half of the chance to occur the event.

Suppose that we flip a coin two times.

Sample space = {HH, HT, TH, TT}

Find the probability of getting at least 1 head.

There are 3 outcomes out of 4 of getting at least 1 head.

Probability = 3/4 = 75%

Hence there is a 75% probability for getting at least 1 head when flipped a coin two times.

When the mean is higher than the median, the distribution has a right-skewed pattern. Thus the statement 'a. the distribution is positively skewed' is the accurate one.

This indicates that the majority of the data are centered on the left and that the right is covered by a lengthy tail. The mean exceeds the median. In a positively skewed distribution, the mean overestimates the values that are most prevalent. The median is larger than the mean. In a distribution that is positively skewed, the mean—the average of all the values—is higher than the median since the data tends to be lower. The center value of the data is called the median, in comparison. As a result, if the data is more skewed towards the negative, the average will be higher than the middle number.

Answer:

a) Prime factorization of 396: 2² × 3¹ × 11¹

b) Factors of 396: 88 and 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) To find the prime factorization of 396, we can start by dividing it by the smallest prime number, which is 2:

396 ÷ 2 = 198

Now we can write:

396 = 2 × 198

Next, we can divide 198 by 2 again:

198 ÷ 2 = 99

So we have:

396 = 2 × 2 × 99

Now we need to find the prime factorization of 99. We can start by dividing it by 3:

99 ÷ 3 = 33

So we can write:

396 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 33

Now we need to find the prime factorization of 33. We can start by dividing it by 3 again:

33 ÷ 3 = 11

So we have:

396 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 11 × 1

We don't need to include the factor of 1, so we can write the prime factorization of 396 in index form as:

396 = 2² × 3¹ × 11¹

b) To find which two of the given numbers are factors of 396, we need to check if all the prime factors of each number are also prime factors of 396.

The prime factorization of 88 is 2³ × 11. Both 2 and 11 are factors of 396, so 88 is a factor of 396.

The prime factorization of 121 is 11². 11 is a factor of 396, but there is no factor of 121 that matches the remaining prime factors of 396 (2² × 3¹), so 121 is not a factor of 396.

The prime factorization of 9 is 3². Both 3 and 2 are factors of 396, so 9 is a factor of 396.

The prime factorization of 14 is 2 × 7. 7 is not a factor of 396, so 14 is not a factor of 396.

The prime factorization of 22 is 2 × 11. Both 2 and 11 are factors of 396, so 22 is a factor of 396.

Therefore, the two numbers that are factors of 396 are 88 and 9.

Answer: Given the formula:

V = 6pirt + 4pir^2

To solve for t, we'll isolate t by rearranging the equation.

First, subtract 4pir^2 from both sides:

V - 4pir^2 = 6pirt

Next, divide both sides by 6pi:

(V - 4pir^2)/6pi = t

So, t = (V - 4pir^2)/6pi.

This gives us the value of t in terms of V and the radius of the cylinder, r.

When we rotate a thin vertical strip, about the y-axis.

We get a cylindrical shell  with an inner of radius an x and an outer of radius x + dx

The height of the cylinder shell is tan (x) - x

The volume of the cylindrical shell is

     dV = π [tex](Outer Radius)^{2} (Height)[/tex] - π[tex](Inner Radius)^{2} (Height)[/tex]

     dV = π [tex](x + dx )^{2} (tan(x) - x)[/tex] - π [tex](x )^{2} (tan(x) - x)[/tex]

dV = π[tex](x^{2} + 2 xdx + (dx)^{2} ) (tan(x) - x)[/tex] - π [tex](x)^{2} (tan(x) - x)[/tex]

assume [tex]dx^{2}[/tex]≈ 0

            dV = π[tex](x^{2} + 2xdx + 0 - x^{2} ) (tan(x) - x)\\[/tex]

a) To compare the overall percentage of late deliveries for each delivery service, we need to calculate the total number of late packages and total number of deliveries for each service, and then divide the number of late packages by the total number of deliveries, and multiply by 100 to get the percentage.

For Pack Rats, the total number of deliveries is 400 + 100 = 500, and the total number of late packages is 12 + 16 = 28. Therefore, the percentage of late deliveries for Pack Rats is:

percentage of late deliveries for Pack Rats = (28/500) x 100 = 5.6%

percentage of late deliveries for Boxes R Us = (30/500) x 100 = 6%

Therefore, based on these calculations, Pack Rats has a lower overall percentage of late deliveries compared to Boxes R Us.

b) While Pack Rats has a lower overall percentage of late deliveries compared to Boxes R Us, it's important to note that this decision should not be based solely on this one comparison. It's possible that there are other factors that the company needs to consider, such as the cost of each delivery service or the quality of customer service provided by each company.

Furthermore, the sample size in this trial period may not be large enough to draw a definitive conclusion about the reliability of each service.

The problem involves finding a constant c that makes each given function a valid probability mass function given are f(x) = x/c, x=1,2,3,4; f(x) = cx, x=1,2,3,...,10; f(x) = c(x+1)², x=0,1,2,3; f(x) = x/c, x=1,2,3,...,n; f(x) = (x+1)(x+2)/[x(x+3)], x=0,1,2,3,...

(a) We know that the sum of all the probabilities in a pmf must be equal to 1.

Therefore, we have:

1/c + 2/c + 3/c + 4/c = 1

Solving for c, we get:

c = 10

The pmf can be depicted as:

x f(x)

1 0.1

2 0.2

3 0.3

4 0.4

(b) Again, we know that the sum of all the probabilities in a pmf must be equal to 1. Therefore, we have:

c(1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 10) = 1

Solving for c, we get:

c = 1/55

The pmf can be depicted as:

x f(x)

1 1/55

2 2/55

3 3/55

... ...

10 10/55

(d) We can use the same approach as in part (a) to find c:

c(1 + 4 + 9) = 1

Solving for c, we get:

c = 1/14

The pmf can be depicted as:

x f(x)

0 1/14

1 1/6

2 1/3

3 4/14

(e) Similar to part (a), we have:

1/c + 2/c + 3/c + ... + n/c = 1

Solving for c, we get:

c = (n+1)n/2

The pmf can be depicted as:

x f(x)

1 1/(n+1)

2 2/(n+1)

3 3/(n+1)

n n/(n+1)

(f) We can use the hint given in the problem:

f(x) = 1/(x + 1) - 1/(x + 2)

We can see that this is a telescoping series, where all terms cancel out except for the first and the last term. Therefore, we have:

f(0) = 1/1 - 1/2 = 1/2

f(1) = 1/2 - 1/3 = 1/6

f(2) = 1/3 - 1/4 = 1/12

f(3) = 1/4 - 1/5 = 1/20

In probability theory, the negative binomial distribution is a discrete probability distribution that describes the number of successes in a sequence of independent and identically distributed Bernoulli trials before a specified (non-random) number of failures (denoted r) occurs.

The moment generating function (MGF) of a random variable X is defined as

[tex]M_X(t) = E(e^{tX})[/tex]

To derive the MGF of a negative binomial distribution, we can use the fact that a negative binomial random variable can be expressed as a sum of independent geometric random variables.

Let X ~ NB(r, p) be a negative binomial random variable, where r is the number of failures and p is the probability of success in each trial. Let Y ~ Geo(p) be a geometric random variable representing the number of failures before the first success.

We know that the MGF of a geometric distribution is

[tex]M_Y(t) = E(e^{tY}) = (1-p)/(1-pe^t).[/tex]

Using the fact that a negative binomial random variable is a sum of r independent geometric random variables, we can derive the MGF of X as follows:

[tex]M_X(t) = E(e^{tX}) = E(e^{tY_1 + tY_2 + ... + tY_r})\\\\= E(e^{tY_1} * e^{tY_2} * ... * e^{tY_r})[/tex]

(since the Y's are independent)

[tex]= E(e^{tY_1} * e^{tY_2} * ... * e^{tY_r})[/tex]

(since the Y's have the same distribution)

[tex]= [M_Y(t)]^r\\\\= [(1-p)/(1-pe^t)]^r[/tex]

Therefore, the moment generating function of a negative binomial distribution with parameters r and p is[tex]M_X(t) = [(1-p)/(1-pe^t)]^r.[/tex] This function can be used to derive moments and other statistical properties of the negative binomial distribution.

Answer:

$1,300

Step-by-step explanation:

Let original price be $x

Computer has been marked down by 45%

45% = 45/100 = 0.45

So discount = 45% of x = 0.45 x

Original price - Discount = Sale price
x - 0.45x = $715

0.55x = 715

x = 715/0.55

x = $1,300

which is the original price

By rewriting the equation in slope-intercept form and setting Celsius to 0, we can find the y-intercept of the corresponding line, which represents the temperature in Kelvin when Celsius is 0°C.

When studying linear relationships between two variables, it is often useful to identify the y-intercept of the line that represents such relationship.

The equation K = °C + 273.15 expresses the relationship between the temperature in Celsius (°C) and the temperature in Kelvin (K). It tells us that to convert a temperature from Celsius to Kelvin, we need to add 273.15 to the original value.

We can plot the Celsius and Kelvin values as two variables on a graph, with Celsius on the x-axis and Kelvin on the y-axis. Since the equation K = °C + 273.15 is a linear equation (meaning that the graph is a straight line), we can use the slope-intercept form of the equation to find the y-intercept, which is the point where the line intersects the y-axis.

The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. In the case of K = °C + 273.15, we can rewrite it as K = 1°C + 273.15, which tells us that the slope of the line is 1. This means that for every 1°C increase in temperature, there is a corresponding 1 K increase in temperature.

To find the y-intercept, we can simply set the value of Celsius to 0, since this is the point where the line intersects the y-axis. Plugging in 0 for °C in the equation K = °C + 273.15, we get K = 273.15. This means that the y-intercept of the line is (0, 273.15), which corresponds to the temperature in Kelvin when the temperature in Celsius is 0°C.

In summary, the equation K = °C + 273.15 provides a linear relationship between the temperature in Celsius and the temperature in Kelvin.

The probability that a newly arrived email which does mention "free gift card", is not spam is 0.0165.

Let S be the event that an email is spam, and let F be the event that an email mentions "free gift card". We want to find P(S' | F), the probability that the email is not spam given that it mentions "free gift card".

We can use Bayes' theorem to find P(S' | F):

P(S' | F) = P(F | S') P(S') / P(F)

We can calculate each of these probabilities as follows:

P(F | S') = the probability that a non-spam email mentions "free gift card". From the problem, we know that this probability is 0.005 (i.e., 99.5% of non-spam emails do not mention "free gift card").

P(S') = the probability that an email is not spam. From the problem, we know that this probability is 0.4 (i.e., 60% of emails are spam, so 40% are not spam).

P(F) = the probability that an email mentions "free gift card". This can be calculated using the law of total probability:

P(F) = P(F | S) P(S) + P(F | S') P(S')

= 0.20 × 0.60 + 0.005 × 0.40

= 0.121

In the first term, we use the given probability that 20% of spam emails mention "free gift card". In the second term, we use the probability that 0.5% of non-spam emails mention "free gift card".

Plugging these values into Bayes' theorem, we get:

P(S' | F) = 0.005 × 0.4 / 0.121 ≈ 0.0165

Therefore, the probability that a newly arrived email which does mention "free gift card" is not spam is approximately 0.0165 or 1.65%.

Correct Question :

A spam filer is designed by screening commonly occurring phrases in spam. Suppose that 60% of email is spam. In 20% of the spam emails, the phrase “free gift card” is used. In non-spam emails, 99.5% of them do not mention “free gift card”. What is the probability that a newly arrived email which does mention “free gift card”, is not spam?
