Write an exponential decay function in the form f(x)=ab^x for each of Car A and Car B. Explain how you determined the value of b for each function.

Answers

Answer:

  A: 8750(0.88^x)

  B: 9995(0.82^x)

Step-by-step explanation:

You want an exponential decay function for cars A and B given their cost and their "decay factor."

Exponential function

In general, an exponential function has the form ...

  value = (initial value)·(growth factor)^x

The growth factor is usually defined as ...

  growth factor = 1 + growth rate

where the "growth rate" is often expressed as a percentage or a fraction.

Your form for f(x) has a=(initial value) and b=(growth factor).

The value of x will be zero at the point where the initial value applies. It will increase by 1 unit for each interval in which the growth factor applies.

Application

Car A

The initial value is presumed to be the Cost. What is called the "growth rate" above is the opposite of what is called the "Decay Factor" in this problem. That is ...

(initial value) = Cost = 8750(growth factor) = 1 - Decay Factor = 1 -0.12 = 0.88x = years after 2015

The exponential function is then ...

  f(x) = 8750·(0.88^x)

Car B

For this car, we have ...

(initial value) = Cost = 9995(growth factor) = 1 - Decay Factor = 1 -0.18 = 0.82x = years after 2017

The exponential function is then ...

  f(x) = 9995·(0.82^x)

a soft drink machine outputs a mean of 25 ounces per cup. the machine's output is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 4 ounces. what is the probability of filling a cup between 22 and 33 ounces? round your answer to four decimal places.

Answers

The probability of filling a cup between 22 and 33 ounces is 0.9371

The variable here is the machine's output which is normally distributed.

The normal distribution is defined by two parameters, namely, the mean and the standard deviation.  

The population mean for this normal distribution is μ = 25 ounces per cup, and a population standard deviation of σ = 4 ounces (per cup).

calculate the z-score using this formula:

z = x-μ/σ

z is the z-score.

x is the raw score.

μ is the population mean.

σ is the population standard deviation.

The probability of filling a cup between 18 and 33 ounces

z = 18-25/4

z = -7/4

z = -1.75

P(Z< - 1.75) = 1 - P(Z > -1.75)

                  = 1 - 0.9599

                  = 0.0400

We can proceed in the same way to obtain the z-score and the associated probability with the raw score x = 33. We can see that this value is above the mean (positive).

z = 33-25/4

z = 8/4

z = 2

P(z<2) = 0.9772

P(18<x<33) = 0.9772 - 0.0400

P(18<x<33) = 0.9371  

the probability of filling a cup between 22 and 33 ounces is 0.9371

The water level in a tream roe 2 1/4 inche every hour for 4 1/2 hour. How many inche did the water level rie during that time?

Answers

the water level in the stream rises by 10.125 inches.

What is water level?

The elevation of a sea, stream, lake, or reservoir's free surface in relation to a given vertical datum is referred to as the water level, also known as gauge height or stage.

Main body:

According to question water level in stream rises by 2.25 inches every hour.

Total rise can be calculated by using simple multiplication.

Total time for ride = 4.5 hours

Total rise in stream level = total time * total rise in 1 hour

                                         = 2.25*4.5

A poorly-built machine has three components that can independently fail with a
probability of 1/3. The machine will fail if any component fails. What is the probability
that the machine fails?

Answers

Answer:  19/27

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

Explanation:

Each component has 1/3 as the probability of failure.

1 - 1/3 = 2/3 is the probability a particular component works.

Each component is independent of one another, allowing us to multiply the probabilities: (2/3)*(2/3)*(2/3) = 8/27

8/27 is the probability that all three components work simultaneously, and it's the probability that the machine works.

1 - 8/27 = 19/27 represents the probability that at least one component fails, and hence causes the entire machine to fail also.

19/27 = 0.7037 = 70.37% approximately. It appears this machine fails pretty often.

Rhombus $abcd$ has perimeter $148$, and one of its diagonals has length $24$. How long is the other diagonal?.

Answers

The other diagonal is $70 long.

Given:

Rhombus $abcd$ has perimeter $148$, and one of its diagonals has length $24$.

P = 148 and d = 24

Area [tex]= 1/4 d \sqrt{P^2-4d^2}[/tex]

= 1/4(24)[tex]\sqrt{148^2 - 4*24^2}[/tex]

= 6 [tex]\sqrt{21904-4*576}[/tex]

= 6*[tex]\sqrt{21904-2304}[/tex]

= 6*[tex]\sqrt{19600}[/tex]

= 6*140

= 840

Area = d*d1 / 2

840 = 24 * d1 / 2

840 * 2 = 24 * d1

#SPJ4

Answer:

70

Step-by-step explanation:

The four sides of a rhombus all have equal length, so if the perimeter is 148, then each side has length 148/4 = 37. Also, the diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other at right angles, so the diagonal of length 24 is cut into two pieces of length 12. We can show this information in a diagram (shown below.)

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem to any of the four right triangles in our diagram, we have

12² + x² = 37².

Solving this equation for positive x, we get x = √37² - 12² = √1369 - 144 = √1225 = 35. The length of the long diagonal is x + x = 70.

A two-dimensional Cartesian plane system's x- and y-axes divide the plane into four infinite regions known as quadrants. The x-axis, sometimes known as the horizontal line, and the y-axis, often known as the vertical line, meet at a right angle. The reference point is often where two lines connect. This point serves as the reference (or initial point) for all measurements made using the coordinate system.

Simply said, a quadrant is the area of a cartesian plane where the x- and y-axes cross each other.

Coordinate plane with four quadrants

According to those values, the graph is then divided into four quadrants or portions.

The first quadrant is located in the top right-hand corner of the graph. The values of x and y in this quadrant are both positive.Second Quadrant: The second quadrant is located in the upper left-hand corner of the graph. The value of x is negative while the value of y is positive in this quadrant.Third Quadrant: The third quadrant is located in the lower left-hand corner of the graph. It includes the negative x and y values.Fourth Quadrant: The fourth quadrant is located in the lower right corner and has a positive x value and a negative y value.

2.25a + 1.25c = 891

→ Multiply 1st equation by 1.25

1.25a + 1.25c = 655

2.25a + 1.25c = 891

n(x) is a vertical dilation of scale factor 4 followed by a translation of 2 units upwards of the parent linear function.

How is n(x) related to the parent function?

The parent linear function is:

f(x)= x

And the function n(x) is:

n(x) = 4x + 2

If first we apply a vertical dilation of scale factor 4 to the parent linear function, we will get:

n(x) = 4*f(x)

And if now we apply a translation of 2 units upwards, then we get:

n(x) =4*f(x) + 2

Replacing f(x) by x we get:

n(x) = 4*x + 2

And we returned to n(x), so these are the transformations that define our function in terms to the parent function.
