How Do You Do This Question?

Answers

Answer 1

You're very close. The answers you've selected are correct, but there's one third series that's also alternating. Choice C is also an answer due to the [tex](-1)^n[/tex] term.

Any alternating series is in the form [tex]\displaystyle \sum (-1)^n*a_n[/tex] or [tex]\displaystyle \sum (-1)^{n+1}*a_n[/tex] where [tex]a_n[/tex] is any sequence.

Choice E comes close, but the 2n being the exponent means that we don't have alternating signs (positive, negative, positive negative, etc). Why is this? Well notice how 2n is even regardless of what integer n we pick. Raising any negative number to an even power results in a positive value.

Eg: (-7)^2 = 49 and (-3)^4 = 81

This means that all of the terms of sequence E are going to be positive. The terms do not bounce back and forth between positive and negative.

Put another way, [tex](-1)^{2n} = \left((-1)^2\right)^n = 1^n = 1[/tex]

So [tex]\displaystyle \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} (-1)^{2n}\frac{1}{n+3} = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} \frac{1}{n+3}[/tex]

And it's why choice E is not one of the answers.

Solving Steps:

The distribution of passenger vehicle speeds traveling on a certain freeway in California is nearly normal with a mean of 71.5 miles/hour and a standard deviation of 4.75 miles/hour. The speed limit on this stretch of the freeway is 70 miles/hour. (a) A highway patrol officer is hidden on the side of the freeway. What is the probability that 5 cars pass and none are speeding? Assume that the speeds of the cars are independent of each other. (Round your answer to four decimal places.) .0074 (b) On average, how many cars would the highway patrol officer expect to watch until the first car that is speeding? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) What is the standard deviation of the number of cars he would expect to watch? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

a

[tex]G  =   0.007523 [/tex]

b

 The  number of cars the  highway patrol officer would watch before a  car that is seen is [tex]E(X) = 1.6027 [/tex]

The standard deviation is   [tex]s  =  0.9829 [/tex]

gg

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mean is [tex]\mu = 71.5 \ miles/hour[/tex]

The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 4.75 \ miles/hour[/tex]

The speed limit is [tex] x = 70 \ miles /hour[/tex]

Generally the probability of getting a car that is moving with speed greater than the speed limit is mathematically represented as

[tex]p =P(X > x ) = P(X > 70) = P(\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } > \frac{70 - 71.5 }{4.75})[/tex]

=> [tex] p= P(X > 70) = P(\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } > \frac{70 - 71.5 }{4.75})[/tex]

=> [tex] p= P(X > 70) = P(\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } > -0.31579 )[/tex]

Here

[tex]\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } = Z(The \ standardized \ value \ of X )[/tex]

So

=> [tex] p= P(X > 70) = P(Z > -0.31579 )[/tex]

From the z-table

[tex]p = P(Z > -0.31579 ) = 0.62392[/tex]

So

[tex] p = P(X > 70) = 0.62392 [/tex]

Generally the probability of getting a car that is not moving with speed greater than the speed limit is mathematically represented as

[tex]q = 1 - p[/tex]

=> [tex]q = 1 - 0.62392 [/tex]

=> [tex]q = 0.37608 [/tex]

Generally the probability of getting 5 cars that are not speeding is mathematically represented as

[tex]G = q^5[/tex]

=> [tex]G = (0.37608)^5[/tex]

=> [tex]G = 0.007523 [/tex]

Generally the number of cars that the highway patrol officer is expected to watch until the first car that is speeding is gotten is mathematically represented as

[tex]E(X) = \frac{1}{p}[/tex]

=> [tex]E(X) = \frac{1}{0.62392}[/tex]

=> [tex]E(X) = 1.6027 [/tex]

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically represented as

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{1 - p }{ p^2} }[/tex]

=>     [tex]s  =  \sqrt{\frac{1 -0.62392 }{ (0.62392)^2} }[/tex]

=> [tex]s = 0.9829 [/tex]

The probability that 5 cars pass and none are speeding is 0.007523 and the number of cars the highway patrol officer would watch before a car that is seen is E(X) = 1.6027

What is normal a distribution?

It is also called the Gaussian Distribution. It is the most important continuous probability distribution. The curve looks like a bell, so it is also called a bell curve.

The z-score is a numerical measurement used in statistics of the value's relationship to the mean of a group of values, measured in terms of standards from the mean.

The distribution of passenger vehicle speeds traveling on a certain freeway in California is nearly normal with a mean of 71.5 miles/hour and a standard deviation of 4.75 miles/hour.

The speed limit on this stretch of the freeway is 70 miles/hour.

Generally, the probability of getting a car that is moving with speed greater than the speed limit is mathematically represented as;

[tex]p = P(X > x) = P(X > 70) = P(z = \dfrac{X - \mu}{\sigma } > \dfrac{70 - 71.5}{4.75})\\\\p = P(X > 70 ) = P(\dfrac{X -\mu}{\sigma} > -0.31579)[/tex]

From the z-table

[tex]p = P(X > 70)= P(z > -0.31579) \\\\p = 0.62392[/tex]

Generally, the probability of getting a car that is not moving with speed greater than the speed limit will be

q = 1 - p

q = 1 - 0.62392

q = 0.37608

Generally, the probability of getting cars that are not speeding will be

G = q⁵

G = 0.37608⁵

G = 0.007523

The number of cars that the highway patrol officer is expected to watch until the first car that is speeding is gotten will be

[tex]\rm E(X) = \dfrac{1}{p}\\\\E(X) = \dfrac{1}{0.62392}\\\\E(X) = 1.6027[/tex]

The standard deviation will be

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{1-p}{p}}\\\\\\\sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{1-0.63292}{0.62392}}\\\\\\\sigma = 0.9829[/tex]

A certain virus infects one in every 300 people. A test used to detect the virus in a person is positive 90​% of the time when the person has the virus and ​15% of the time when the person does not have the virus.​ (This 15​% result is called a false positive​.) Let A be the event​ "the person is​ infected" and B be the event​ "the person tests​ positive." ​(a) Using​ Bayes' Theorem, when a person tests​ positive, determine the probability that the person is infected. ​(b) Using​ Bayes' Theorem, when a person tests​ negative, determine the probability that the person is not infected.

Answers

Answer:

a)  P[A/B] = 0,019     or     P[A/B] = 1,9 %

b)  P[A- /B-] = 0,9996       or    P[A- /B-] = 99,96 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Bayes Theorem :

P[A/B]  =  P(A) * P[B/A] / P(B)

The branches of events are as follows

Condition 1        real infection     1/300        and     not infection  299/300

Then

1.-    1/300      299/300

When the test is done   (virus present)  0,9 (+)    0,15 (-)

2.-   299/300

When the test is done  ( no virus )   0,15  (+)     0,85 (-)

Then:

P(A) = event person infected          P(B)  =  person test positive

a) P[A/B]  = P(A) * P[B/A] / P(B)

where   P(A)  = 1/300  =   0,0033   P[B/A] = 0,9    

Then P(A) * P[B/A] =  0,0033*0,9  =  0,00297

P(B)   is    ( 1/300 )*0,9  +  (299/300)*0,15

P(B) = 0,0033*0,9 + 0,9966*0,15    ⇒  P(B) = 0,1524

Finally

P[A/B] =  0,00297 /0,1524

P[A/B] = 0,019     or     P[A/B] = 1,9 %

b) Following sames steps:

P[A- /B-] = (299/300) * 0,85  / (299/300) * 0,85 + (1/300 * 0,1)

P[A- /B-] = 0,8471 /0,8474

P[A- /B-] = 0,9996       or    P[A- /B-] = 99,96 %

Triangle ABC is rotated 180 degrees around point E, therefore, A maps to D, B maps to C, and C maps to B.

===================================================

Explanation:

If you were to rotate triangle ABC 180 degrees around point E, then it would line up perfectly with triangle DCB

Point A lands on point DPoint B lands on point CPoint C lands on point B

Note how in the sequence ABC we have A first, B second, then C third

Then for the sequence DCB we have D first, C second, then B third

This order matters so we can pair up the points properly

A goes to D (A is first of ABC; D is first of DCB)B goes to C (B is second in ABC; C is second in DCB)C goes to B (C is third in ABC; B is third in DCB)

Calories consumed by members of a track team the day before a race are normally distributed, with a mean of 1,600 calories and a standard deviation of 100 calories. If a normal curve is sketched using these data, what is the range for 3 standard deviations to the right and to the left of the mean?

Answers

Answer:

600 calories

Step-by-step explanation:

John has consumed 1600 calories out of which he has burned off 400. So the total calories for the day so far are:

1600-400

=1200 calories

He has to keep the count of calories upto 1800 per day and the consumed calories so far are 1200

So he needs to burn:

= 1800 - 1200

= 600 calories

He has to consume 600 calories more..

Hence 1000 is not a viable solution to the problem as the remaining count of calories that need to be consumed are 600 ..
