The experimental probability the placebo pill induced better concentration on the student exams is 0.64

The question has to do with probability.

Probability is the likelihood of an event occurring.

The probability of an event A is given by

P(A) = number of occurrences of event A/total number of occurrences of all events.

Given that in the study on the placebo effect on 100 students, 64 were found to perform better on tests after taking a fake pill to improve concentration.

The event A = students performing better.

Since 64 students performed better, the number of occurrences of event A = 64.

Since there were 100 students, the total number of occurrences = 100.

So, P(A) = P(students perform better)

= number of occurrences of event A/total number of occurrences of all events.

= 64/100

= 0.64

So, the experimental probability the placebo pill induced better concentration on the student exams is 0.64

The original price of the laptop is calculated as $545

We are given;

Sales Price of Laptop = $299.75

Now, the laptop is on sale for 45% off regular price.

If original price is x, then we can express that;

(100% - 45%) * x = 299.75

Thus;

55%x = 299.75

0.55x = 299.75

x = 299.75/0.55

x = $545

Since [tex]a_1,a_2,a_3,\cdots[/tex] are in arithmetic progression,

[tex]a_2 = a_1 + 2[/tex]

[tex]a_3 = a_2 + 2 = a_1 + 2\cdot2[/tex]

[tex]a_4 = a_3+2 = a_1+3\cdot2[/tex]

[tex]\cdots \implies a_n = a_1 + 2(n-1)[/tex]

and since [tex]b_1,b_2,b_3,\cdots[/tex] are in geometric progression,

[tex]b_2 = 2b_1[/tex]

[tex]b_3=2b_2 = 2^2 b_1[/tex]

[tex]b_4=2b_3=2^3b_1[/tex]

[tex]\cdots\implies b_n=2^{n-1}b_1[/tex]

Recall that

[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{k=1}^n 1 = \underbrace{1+1+1+\cdots+1}_{n\,\rm times} = n[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{k=1}^n k = 1 + 2 + 3 + \cdots + n = \frac{n(n+1)}2[/tex]

It follows that

[tex]a_1 + a_2 + \cdots + a_n = \displaystyle \sum_{k=1}^n (a_1 + 2(k-1)) \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = a_1 \sum_{k=1}^n 1 + 2 \sum_{k=1}^n (k-1) \\\\ ~~~~~~~~ = a_1 n +  n(n-1)[/tex]

so the left side is

[tex]2(a_1+a_2+\cdots+a_n) = 2c n + 2n(n-1) = 2n^2 + 2(c-1)n[/tex]

Also recall that

[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{k=1}^n ar^{k-1} = \frac{a(1-r^n)}{1-r}[/tex]

so that the right side is

[tex]b_1 + b_2 + \cdots + b_n = \displaystyle \sum_{k=1}^n 2^{k-1}b_1 = c(2^n-1)[/tex]

Solve for [tex]c[/tex].

[tex]2n^2 + 2(c-1)n = c(2^n-1) \implies c = \dfrac{2n^2 - 2n}{2^n - 2n - 1} = \dfrac{2n(n-1)}{2^n - 2n - 1}[/tex]

Now, the numerator increases more slowly than the denominator, since

[tex]\dfrac{d}{dn}(2n(n-1)) = 4n - 2[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{d}{dn} (2^n-2n-1) = \ln(2)\cdot2^n - 2[/tex]

and for [tex]n\ge5[/tex],

[tex]n=1[/tex] doesn't work, since that makes [tex]c=0[/tex].

If [tex]n=2[/tex], then

The amount of money that you will have to save to buy a car at the $9,500 price is $556.11 ($9,500 - $8,943.89).

The amount of money needed can be determined by calculating the future value of $7,500 invested at 4.5% for 4 years.

Then, the result, which is the future value, $8,943.89, is deducted from the $9,500 price, to determine the additional savings required.

The future value of an investment can be calculated using the future value formula, A = P (1 + i)^n.

Where:

A = future value

P = Present value of investment

i = interest rate

n = number of periods.

The future value can also be determined using an online finance calculator, as follows.

N (# of periods) = 4 years

I/Y (Interest per year) = 4.5%

PV (Present Value) = $7,500

PMT (Periodic Payment) = $0

Results:

FV = $8,943.89

Total Interest = $1,443.89

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

23.6

Step-by-step explanation:

→ Identify length not given

Opposite

→ Find a formula without opposite

Cos = Adjacent ÷ Hypotenuse

→ Rearrange

Adjacent = Cos × Hypotenuse

→ Substitute

cos 38 × 30 = 23.6

Answer:

[tex]x = 23.6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the missing side of a right-angled triangle, first look at the given angle, and notice its relationships with the given and required sides.

In this case:

• The side adjacent to the given 38° angle is [tex]x[/tex] (required).

• The hypotenuse is 30 units.

The trigonometric ratio that relates the adjacent side and hypotenuse of a triangle is cosine (cos), where:

[tex]\boxed{cos \space\ \theta = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}}[/tex].

Substituting into the formula:

[tex]cos (38^{\circ}) = \frac{x}{30}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x = cos(38^{\circ}) \times 30[/tex]

⇒ [tex]x = 23.6[/tex]

The solutions to the quadratic equation -t² + 7t = 0 are 7 and 0.

Hence, x = 7, 0.

Quadratic equation is simply an algebraic expression of the second degree in x. Quadratic equation in its standard form is;

ax² + bx + c = 0

Where x is the unknown

To solve for x, we use the quadratic formula

x = (-b±√(b² - 4ac)) / (2a)

Given the equation;

-t² + 7t = 0

Comparing with the standard form.

We substitute into the quadratic formula.

x = (-b±√(b² - 4ac)) / (2a)

x = (-7±√( (7)² - ( 4 × -1 × 0) ) / (2 × -1)

x = (-7±√( 49 - 0) ) / (-2)

x = (-7±√49 ) / (-2)

x = (-7±7 ) / (-2)

x = (-7-7 ) / (-2), (-7+7 ) / (-2)

x = -14/(-2), 0/(-2)

x = 7, 0

The solutions to the quadratic equation -t² + 7t = 0 are 7 and 0.

The solution to this problem is (s2+1)Y(s)−2s−1=2s2+4 .

We let  L[y(t)]=Y(s) . With that, tabular Laplace-transform laws entail

L[y′]=sY(s)−y(0)=sY(s)−2

L[y′′]=s2Y(s)−sy(0)−y′(0)=s2Y(s)−2s−1

∴L[y′′+y]=(s2+1)Y(s)−2s−1 .

Since the Laplace transform of  sin(kt)  is  ks2+k2 , we have

(s2+1)Y(s)−2s−1=2s2+4 .

This equation readily solves to  Y(s)=2s3+s2+8s+6(s2+1)(s2+4) . We compute its partial fraction decomposition as  Y(s)=2s+53s2+1+−23s2+4 .

Our final step is to use tabular Laplace-transform laws ( sin(kt)↦ks2+k2 , and  cos(kt)↦ss2+k2 ) to get  y(t)=2cost+53sint−13sin(2t) . One can check that this indeed satisfies the initial value problem.

The equation of the line parallel to 8x − 3y = 1 and containing the point (−2, 0) is 8x -3y = -16

From the question, we are to determine the equation of the line parallel to the given equation and that passes through the given point

Lines that are parallel to each other will have the same slope.

First, we will determine the slope of the line in the given equation.

The given equation of the line is

8x − 3y = 1

Express the equation in the slope-intercept form of a line, y = mx + b

Where m is the slope and

b is the y-intercept

That is,

8x − 3y = 1

8x -1 = 3y

3y = 8x - 1

y = 8/3(x) - 1/3

By comparing,

∴ The slope of the line is 8/3

Since we are to find the equation of a line parallel to this, the slope of the line will also be 8/3

Now, find the equation of a line containing the point (-2, 0) and that has  a slope of 8/3

Using the point-slope form of a line

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

x₁ = -2

and y₁ = 0

∴ y - 0 = 8/3(x - -2)

y = 8/3(x +2)

3y = 8(x +2)

3y = 8x + 16

8x -3y = -16

Hence, the equation of the line parallel to 8x − 3y = 1 and containing the point (−2, 0) is 8x -3y = -16

to find the height. first find that d is 60,45, or 120. this means the height of the trapezoid is approximately 2.5,4.3, or 3.5 feet. so the area of the tarp is approximately 47.3,30.0 or 38.5 square feet.

The value of trigonometry terms sin(2x) is 120/169 and cos(2x) is 119/169 and tan(2x) is 120/119.

According to the statement

We have given that the sin(x) = 5/13 , x in quadrant iii

And we have to Find the value of cos x using the following:

So, For this purpose, we know that the trigonometry terms are:

sin2(x) + cos2(x) = 1;  

or cos2(x) = 1-sin2(x)

And

cos2(x) = 1-(-5/13)2 =

cos2(x) = 144/169;  

We know that the

In quadrant III both the sin and cos are negative so

cos(x) = -12/13 (after taking square roots).

And

Then tan(x) = sin(x)/cos(x) = (-5/13)/(-12/13) = 5/12.

Now you can use the angle addition formulas to find sin(2x), cos(2x), and tan(2x).

Now

sin(x + x) = sinx * cosx + cosx * sinx

              = (-5/13)*(-12/13) + (-12/13)(-5/13) = 120/169

And

cos(x + x) = cosX * cos(x) - sinx*sinx

               = (-12/13)(-12/13) - (-5/13)(-5/13)

               =  119/169

So,

You could use the tan double angle formula, but it is easiest to use  

tan(2x) = sin(2x)/cos(2x)  = (120/169) / (119/169)

          = 120/119.

So, The value of trigonometry terms sin(2x) is 120/169 and cos(2x) is 119/169 and tan(2x) is 120/119.
