Stanley is looking to retire and move near the ocean. The Jersey Shore has seen a rise in sea levels the past few years. These high tides have caused floods in 100 places that call themselves Jersey Shore towns, which are on or within reasonable distance of the ocean. Stanley is nervous about possible floods and would like to be prepared for costs associated with them. As Stanley’s friend and an expert in risk management, you collect past information and have constructed the following probability distribution for the number of floods per town per summer at the Jersey Shore. # of floods per town per summer Probability 0 0.10 1 0.15 2 0.26 3 0.30 4 0.15 5 0.04 a. Calculate the expected frequency of floods per town per summer. (2 points) b. Calculated the variance. (2 points)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2.37 ; 1.6731

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

X:___0____1____2____3____4____5

P(x):_0.10_0.15_0.26__0.30_0.15__0.04

the expected frequency of floods per town per summer

Σ(flood per Town per summer) * probability

Σ(X)*p(x)

Σ(0*0.10) + (1*0.15) + (2*0.26) + (3*0.30) + (4*0.15) + (5*0.04)

= (0 + 0.15 + 0.52 + 0.90 + 0.60 + 0.2)

= 2.37

Variance (s²) :

Σ[x². P(x)] - u²

Using an online variance calculator to save computation time :

s² = 16731 / 10000

s² = 1.6731

Prove that if r is any rational number, then 3r2 − 2r + 4 is rational. The following properties may be used in your proof. Property 1: Every integer is a rational number. Property 2: The sum of any two rational numbers is rational. Property 3: The product of any two rational numbers is rational. Note: Property 1 is Theorem 4.3.1, Property 2 is Theorem 4.3.2, and Property 3 is Exercise 15 in Section 4.3. Using these properties, choose explanations for each step in the given proof.

Given:

Expression is

[tex]3r^2-2r+4[/tex]

To prove:

If r is any rational number, then [tex]3r^2-2r+4[/tex] is rational.

Step-by-step explanation:

Property 1: Every integer is a rational number. It is Theorem 4.3.1.

Property 2: The sum of any two rational numbers is rational. It is Theorem 4.3.2.

Property 3: The product of any two rational numbers is rational. It is Exercise 15 in Section 4.3.  

Let r be any rational number.

We have,

[tex]3r^2-2r+4[/tex]

It can be written as

[tex]3(r\times r)-2r+4[/tex]

Now,

3, -2 and 4 are rational numbers by property 1.

[tex]r^2=r\times r[/tex] is rational by Property 3.

[tex]3r^2\text{ and }-2r[/tex] are rational by Property 3.

[tex]3r^2+(-2r)+4[/tex] is rational by property 2.

So, [tex]3r^2-2r+4[/tex] is rational.

Hence proved.

We want to prove that if r is rational, then:

[tex]3*r^2 - 2r + 4[/tex]  Is also rational.

The proof is below:

Remember that a rational number is any number that can be written as a quotient of two integer numbers.

Then we have:

[tex]r = \frac{a}{b}[/tex]

Where a and b are integers.

If we replace that in our equation, we get:

[tex]3*(\frac{a}{b}) ^2 - 2*(\frac{a}{b}) + 4\\\\\frac{3a^2}{b^2} - \frac{2a}{b} + \frac{4}{1}[/tex]

Note that if a is an integer, then 3*a^2 is also an integer.

If b is an integer, then b^2 is also an integer.

Now we can perform the sum of these fractions to get:

[tex]\frac{3a^2}{b^2} - \frac{2a}{b} + \frac{4}{1}\\\\\frac{3a^2 - 2ab + 4b^2}{b^2}[/tex]

And because integers are closed under the addition, then the numerator of that fraction is also an integer, then we have that the given expression can be written as a quotient of two integers, thus, it is a rational number.

y=2(4^x)

Step-by-step explanation:

if you notice, all the y-values are multiplied by 4 for each x-value. this means 4 is raised to the power of x. however, when you plug this in, you realize that the value produced is only half the actual y-values, so you multiply this whole thing by 2.

y=2(4^x)

f(x) = 2^(2x+1)

You can tell that each of the outputs of f(x) are powers of 2, so all you have to do is figure out the pattern of the exponents.

are fractions with the same denominator?

Answers

Answer:

To solve fractions, you MUST HAVE THE SAME DENOMINATORS WHEN DEALING WITH ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example, 2/3 + 3/6

The denominators in this case have a common denominator which is 6.

All you have to do is multiply the 2/3 by 2 in the numerator and the denominator. Once you do, you'll get 4/6 which you could then add to 3/6 to get 7/6 which would equal 1 1/6 or 7/6 either is fine.

A bacteria population increases exponentially at a rate of r% each day. After
32 days, the population has increased by 309%. Find the value of r.

Answers

Answer:

r=4.5% daily

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential Growth

The natural growth of some magnitudes can be modeled by the equation:

[tex]P=P_o(1+r)^t[/tex]

Where P is the actual amount of the magnitude, Po is its initial amount, r is the growth rate and t is the time.

We know after t=32 days, the population has increased by 309%. Being the original population P the 100%, then the population reached 309+100= 409%.

Substitute the given values into the model function:

[tex]409\%P_o=100\%P_o(1+r)^{32}[/tex]

Simplifying:

[tex]4.09=(1+r)^{32}[/tex]

We need to solve for r. Taking the 32nd root:

[tex]\sqrt[32]{4.09}=\sqrt[32]{(1+r)^{32}}[/tex]

Simplifying:

[tex]1+r=\sqrt[32]{4.09}=1.045[/tex]

Solving:

[tex]r=1.045-1\Rightarrow r=0.045[/tex]

r=4.5% daily

2(6y-5)-3y=2

use the distributive property.

2*6y=12y

2*-5=-10

12y-10-3y=2

combine like terms

12y-3y=9y

9y-10=2

add 10 to both sides.

9y-10+10=9y

2+10=12

9y=12

divide both sides by 9

9y/9=y

y=about 1.33

plug in the value of y in the expression equal to the value of x.

x=6(1.33)-5

solve

6*1.33=7.98

x=7.98-5

7.98-5=2.98
