A member of the junior varsity swim team will be elected as President. Each member is equally likely to be elected. The probability that a sophomore is elected is $3/2$ times the probability that a freshman is elected. Everyone on the junior varsity swim team is either a freshman or sophomore. What fraction of the swim team are sophomores?

Answers

Answer 1

Using the probability concept, it is found that 60% of the swim team are sophomores.

What is a probability?

A probability is given by the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

The sum of the probabilities of all outcomes of an event is of 1, hence:

P(freshman) + P(sophomore) = 1.

The probability that a sophomore is elected is $3/2$ times the probability that a freshman is elected, hence:

x + 3/2x = 1.

5/2x = 1

5x = 2

x = 0.4.

Thus:

40% of the swim team is composed by freshman.60% of the swim team is composed by sophomores.

The box and whisker plot shows he number of points Carl made during each game last season. What is the range of points Carl had?

Answers

Answer:

The range = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Definition: (range of a data set)

the range of a data set is the difference between the greatest and smallest  value.

In a box plot :

We should notice the maximum (generally located at the top right) and the minimum value (generally located at the top left)

Then we make the difference.

97.

In our case :

Max value = 24

Min value = 10

Therefore

The range = 24 - 10 = 14

Find the volume of the cylinder. Find the volume of a cylinder with the same radius and double the height.

Answers

The volumes of the cylinder are 565. 56 cubic inches and  1131. 12 cubic inches respectively.

How to determine the volume

The formula for volume of a cylinder is expressed as;

Volume = πr²h

Where;

r is the radius = 6 Inh is the height = 5 In

Substitute the values

Volume = 3. 142 × 6² × 5

Volume = 3. 142 × 36 × 5

Volume = 565. 56 cubic inches

If the height is doubled, h = 2 × 5 = 10

Substitute the values

Volume = 3. 142 × 6² × 10

Volume = 3. 142 × 36 × 10

Volume = 1131. 12 cubic inches

Thus, the volumes of the cylinder are 565. 56 cubic inches and  1131. 12 cubic inches respectively.

What is a continuous random variable?

Continuous random variables are those that have a large number of uncountable possible values. There are countless possible values. In this illustration, there is no limit to the range of possible values for the height of a giraffe in meters, such as 10.5m, 15.22m, 12.0m, etc. There are countless options.

Discrete Variables that have a finite number of possible outcomes are known as random variables. When a dice is rolled, for example, the outcomes could be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. There are only six possible values, with nothing in between.

for part c im not really sure if the answer is 59 or 60

Answer:

a) 18

b)248

c) 58

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula is:

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = [tex]a_{1}[/tex] + (n-1)d

[tex]a_{n}[/tex]  Is the number at the n term

[tex]a_{1}[/tex] Is the first number in the sequence

n Is the number for the term

d is the common difference.  How much is added each time in the sequence.  In this case, 2.5

Put in the numbers that you know and solve for the unknown.

A:

[tex]a_{8}[/tex] = 0.5 + (8 -1)(2.5)

[tex]a_{8}[/tex]  = 0.5 +(7)(2.5)

[tex]a_{8}[/tex] = 0.5 + 17.5

[tex]a_{8}[/tex] = 18

B:

We follow the same pattern, but we are now looking for [tex]a_{100}[/tex].

[tex]a_{100}[/tex] = 0.5 + (100-1)(2.5)

[tex]a_{100}[/tex] = 0.5 + 247.5

[tex]a_{100}[/tex] = 248

C:

This time we know the value of the number in the sequence, we do not know which term it is.

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = [tex]a_{1}[/tex] + (n - 1)d  Put in what we know

148 = 0.5 + (n -1)2.5  Distribute the 2.5

148 = 0.5 + 2.5n - 2.5  Combine like terms

148 = 3 + 2.5n  Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation

Given f(x) = 3x+9 and g(x) = 5x-1, find f(g(x)).

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

In this equation, given

f(x) = 3x + 9 and g(x) = 5x -1

So the question is what is the value of f if we put the value of g(x) in f(x)

So to solve the equation we need to replace the value of x in f(x) with g(x)

So it was obtained as below

f(g(x)) = 3(5x-1) + 9

= (15 x - 3) + 9

= 15 x + 6

Solve the recurrence relation: t(n) = 3t(n-1) 1, with initial condition of t(0) = 1

Answers

A linear recurrence relation is a function or sequence in which each term is a linear combination of the terms that came before it.

The recurrence relation exists [tex]$T(n)=\Theta\left(3^n\right)$[/tex].

What is meant by "recurrence relation"?

Recurrence relations are used to simplify complex problems by reducing them to an iterative process based on simpler versions of the problem.

Using the substitution method, we find out that

[tex]T(n) &=n+3 T(n-1) \\[/tex]

[tex]&=n+3(n-1)+3^2 T(n-2) \\[/tex]

[tex]&=n+3(n-1)+3^2(n-2)+3^3 T(n-3) \\[/tex]

[tex]&=\cdots \\[/tex]

[tex]&=n+3(n-1)+3^2(n-2)+\cdots+3^{n-1}(n-(n-1))+3^n T(0) \\[/tex]

simplifying the above equation, we get

[tex]$&=\frac{3^{n+1}-2 n-3}{4}+3^n T(0) \\[/tex]

[tex]&=\Theta\left(3^n\right)[/tex]

Even without doing the full calculation it is not hard to check that [tex]$T(n) \geq 3^{n-1}+3^n T(0)$[/tex], and so [tex]$T(n)=\Omega\left(3^n\right)$[/tex].

A cheap way to obtain the corresponding upper bound is by considering

[tex]$S(n)=T(n) / 3^n$[/tex], which satisfies the recurrence relation  

[tex]$S(n)=S(n-1)+n / 3^n$[/tex].

Repeated substitution then gives

[tex]$\frac{T(n)}{3^n}=\sum_{m=1}^n \frac{m}{3^m}+T(0)[/tex]

Since the infinite series [tex]$\sum_{m=1}^{\infty} \frac{m}{3^m}$[/tex] converges, this implies that [tex]$\frac{T(n)}{3^n}=\Theta(1)$[/tex] and so [tex]$T(n)=\Theta\left(3^n\right)$[/tex]

Therefore, the recurrence relation exists [tex]$T(n)=\Theta\left(3^n\right)$[/tex].

∫dF=F(x,y)=12ax2+bxy+12ℓy2+c=0 is the exact ode.

What is the exact equation?

Specifically, an exact equation is a differential equation that can be solved instantly without the aid of any specialized methods. If the result of a straightforward differentiation, a first-order differential equation (of one variable) is referred to as an exact differential or exact differential. The equation

P(x, y)dy/dx + Q(x, y) = 0,

or in the equivalent alternate notation

P(x, y)dy + Q(x, y)dx = 0,

is exact if

∂P(x, y)/∂x =  ∂Q(x, y)/∂y

In this instance, a function R(x, y) will exist whose partial x-derivative is Q and partial y-derivative is P, and whose equation R(x, y) = c (where c is constant) will implicitly establish a function y that will satisfy the initial differential equation.

An exact ODE is one where the equation can be written as  dF=0  for some  F(x,y). Expanding using chain rule, this means an equation of the form

∂1Fdx+∂2Fdy=0

Now if the second partials of  F  exist and are continuous, they must be equal due to Clairaut. So, given an equation

Mdx+Ndy=0

if we have

∂2M=∂1N

then there is an  F  such that

M=∂1F, N=∂2F

and hence that equation is exact, and the solution is simply

∫dF=0

We have

M=ax+by⇒∂2M=b

N=kx+ℓy⇒∂1N=k

so to be exact, we must have that  b=k .

Then, integrating  M  and  N , we have

F(x,y)=∫Mdx=12ax2+bxy+g(y)

F(x,y)=∫Ndy=bxy+12ℓy2+h(x)

and comparing these two, we can see that

∫dF=F(x,y)=12ax2+bxy+12ℓy2+c=0

is a solution to the equation for any  a,b,c,ℓ . You can solve for  y  by quadratic methods.
