The qthqth quantile of a random variable XX is the value xx such that

Pr[X≤x]=q.Pr[X≤x]=q.So in your case q=0.25q=0.25, and0.25=Pr[X≤x]=FX(x)=1−e−x/β.0.25=Pr[X≤x]=FX(x)=1−e−x/β.This gives us e−x/4=0.75e−x/4=0.75, orx=−4log0.75≈1.15073.x=−4log⁡0.75≈1.15073.This assumes that the parametrization of the exponential distribution is by scale; i.e., if β=4β=4 this means E[X]=β=4E⁡[X]=β=4, rather than by rate--in which case E[X]=1/β=1/4E⁡[X]=1/β=1/4.

A climber is standing at the top of Mount Kazbek, approximately 3.1 miles above sea level. The radius of the Earth is 3959 miles. What is the climber's distance to the horizon?

Answers

I just took a test for K12 with this question. Your answer will be 156.7 miles 

The radius of the earth = OC = OB = 3959 miles

Peak of the Mount Kazbek = A = 3.1 miles

OA = OC + CA

OA = 3959 + 3.1 = 3962.1 miles

As OBA is a right triangle,

[tex] OA^{2} [/tex] = [tex] OB^{2} [/tex] + [tex] AB^{2} [/tex]

[tex] 3962.1^{2} [/tex] = [tex] 3959^{2} [/tex] + [tex] AB^{2} [/tex]

15698236.41 = 15673681 + [tex] AB^{2} [/tex]

[tex] AB^{2} [/tex] = 15698236.41 - 15673681

[tex] AB^{2} [/tex] =24555.41

AB = 156.701659

climber's distance to the horizon is 156.7 miles

What is the equation of the following graph in vertex form?

(parabolic function going down from the left through the point negative four comma zero and turning at the point negative three comma negative one and going up through the point negative two comma zero and then through the point zero comma eight and continuing up towards infinity)

y = (x − 3)2 − 1
y = (x + 3)2 − 1
y = (x − 4)2 − 2
y = (x − 4)2 + 8

Answers

the vertex  is at x = -3  so there will be (x + 3)^2 in the answer.
And  y coordinate of vertex is -1  so the answer is B.

Answer with explanation:

→The given curve is Quadratic,having two real roots,as it cuts X axis at two distinct points that is at ,-2 and -4.

→Graph is symmetrical about line , x=-3.

→This curve is a Parabola,opening in upward direction ,that is having Y axis as Axis of Symmetry.

→Parabola is defined as locus of all the points such that distance from fixed point called focus, to distance from fixed line called Directrix ,is always Constant.

→Point which divides PARABOLA in two symmetrical parts is called Vertex having coordinates (-3,-1).

Equation of parabola having vertex ,(-3,-1) and opening in Upward Direction,that is in vertical direction, is given by:

General Equation: Equation of parabola passing through point (a,b) and opening in upward direction and having focus (k,h) is

y-b=4 k× (x-a)²

So, the  equation of parabola will be

→y-(-1)=4 k[x-(-3)]²

→y+1==4 k(x+3)²-----(1)

This parabola also passes through (-4,0) and (-2,0).

→0+1=4 k×(-4+3)²

→1=4 k×(-1)²

[tex]1=4 k\\\\k=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

If you will substitute , x=-2 and y=0 in equation 1,you will get same value of k.

Equation of Parabola ,that is equation 1,can be written as

[tex]y+1=4\times\frac{1}{4}(x+3)^2\\\\y+1=(x+3)^2\\\\ y=(x+3)^2-1[/tex]

Option B: y=(x+3)²-1

The width of a rectangle is 6 kilometers less than twice its length. if its area is 108 square​ kilometers, find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Answers

Hi there!

Answer:
length = 9 kilometres
Width = 12 kilometres

Let's solve this problem step by step!
To find our answer we need to set up and solve an equation.

Let the length of the rectangle be represented by x.
The width of the rectangle can therefore be expressed by 2x - 6.

The area of a rectangle can be found by using the formula:
A = width × length

Plug in the data from the formula
A = x (2x - 6).

Simplify using rainbow technique.
[tex]x(2x - 6) = 2 {x}^{2} - 6x[/tex]

Now we've found the simplified expression that expresses the area of the rectangle. Therefore, we can now set up and start solve the equation.

[tex]2 {x}^{2} - 6x = 108[/tex]
Subtract 108

[tex]2 {x}^{2} - 6x - 108 = 0[/tex]
Divide by 2.

[tex] {x}^{2} - 3x - 54[/tex]
[tex](x - 9)(x + 6) = 0[/tex]
Rule AB = 0, gives A is 0 or B is 0.

[tex]x - 9 = 0 \\ x = 9 \\ \\ x + 6 = 0 \\ x = - 6[/tex]

The length of the rectangle, which was represented by x, must be 9 (since it cannot be a negative number).

Length
[tex]x = 9[/tex]
Width
[tex]2x - 6 = 2 \times 9- 6 = 18 - 6 = 12[/tex]

Answer:
length = 9 kilometres
Width = 12 kilometres

If you are examining a triangle with given measurements for one leg and the hypotenuse, how will you determine the measure of the unknown leg? Explain.

Answers

The Pythagorean Theorem.If a and b are the lengths of the legs of a right triangle and c is the length of the hypotenuse, then the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse

By using Pythagoras theorem, length of one leg of triangle can be determined.

Given:

A triangle with length of one leg and the hypotenuse

According to question,

Let the length of one leg of triangle which can be base [tex](b)[/tex] or perpendicular [tex](p)[/tex] and hypotenuse represented by [tex](h)[/tex].

Now, using Pythagoras theorem which states that if a triangle is right-angled ([tex]90[/tex] degrees), then the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

From the figure,

In [tex]\Delta AOB, \;\angle O=90^\circ[/tex]

[tex]\rm{H^2=P^2+B^2}\\\rm{AB^2=AO^2+OB^2[/tex]

  [tex]h^2=p^2+b^2[/tex]

 [tex]b=\sqrt{h^2-p^2}\\[/tex]

       or

[tex]p=\sqrt{h^2-b^2}\\[/tex]

Therefore, length of one leg of the triangle is determined by using Pythagoras theorem.

Marie is buying an ice-cream sundae. There are 3 sizes of sundaes, 15 different ice-cream flavors, and 5 different toppings. How many ways can Marie choose a sundae?

Answers

225 different ways, because 3 x 15 x 5 = 225.
Since each size of sundae has 15 flavor choices, we can find the number of combinations by multiplying the size of sundaes with the different ice cream flavors. The same rule can be applied to the number of different toppings, so you can set up this equation:
[tex]3 \times 15 \times 5 = 225[/tex]
Multiplying them out, you can see that there are 225 different combinations of sundaes

Answers

Final answer:

To establish a 99% confidence interval for the population standard deviation, we first need to calculate the sample standard deviation of the data. We then use the Chi-Square distribution with the appropriate degrees of freedom to get the interval. The formula [√((n-1)*s²/χ²0.995,n-1), √((n-1)*s²/χ²0.005,n-1)] can be applied.

Explanation:

This question refers to constructing a 99% confidence interval for the population standard deviation using the information from a sample. The mentioned sample comprises measures of daily intakes of milk in ounces for ten randomly selected people. To address this, first, we need to calculate the sample standard deviation. After that, we use Chi-Square distribution (χ² distribution) to create the confidence interval for the standard deviation since population standard deviation (σ) is unknown.

Let's denote:

n as number of observations: n=10s as sample standard deviationχ²(α/2,n-1) as the χ² value for α/2 (± z-score for standard normal distribution) with n-1 degrees of freedom

99% confidence interval for the population standard deviation σ can be found using the formula:
[√((n-1)*s²/χ²0.995,n-1), √((n-1)*s²/χ²0.005,n-1)]
Here, χ²0.995,n-1 and χ²0.005,n-1 represent the values from χ² distribution table corresponding to 0.005 and 0.995 (For 99% confidence interval, α=1-0.99=0.01. α/2=0.01/2=0.005) with n-1 degrees of freedom.

Please note that all numbers should be rounded according to the context, and the final values are but estimates that should not be treated as 100% accurate.

Answers

You have the correct integral set up. I'm not sure how you're getting 9780. The correct answer is 9375.0 foot-pounds

The volume of each slice is 6*2*DeltaX cubic feet. So the force pulling down on each slice is 62.5*6*2*DeltaX pounds as this is the weight of the slice. 

The work done to move that slice x feet upward is 62.5*6*2*DeltaX*x or 62.5*6*2x*DeltaX as you wrote for your integrand.

Integrating with respect to x will effectively add up all the horizontal slices to get the total work done

4) subtract 9x and add 17 to both sides:9x - 9x + 11 + 17 > 13x - 9x - 17 + 17

5) combine like terms: 28 > 4x

6) divide both sides by 4: 7 > x
