2+1.25f=10−2.75f solve for f

Answers

Hey there!

2 + 1.25f = 10 - 2.75f
Add 2.75f to both sides.

1.25f + 2.75f = 4f

4f + 2 = 10
Subtract 2 from both sides.

4f = 8
Divide both sides by 4 to solve for f.

f = 2

I hope this helps!

The value of f is 0.02.

What is an expression ?

Expression is a formation of numbers and variables with mathematical operations.

According to the given question we have to solve for f or we can say we have to find the value of f for the given expression which is

2+1.25f=10−2.75f                (lets multiply each term by 100 to remove

                                                                                              decimals )  

∴ 200 + 125f = 1000 - 275f

125f + 275f = 1000 - 200

400f = 800

      f = 800/400

      f = 2.

As we have multiplied by 100 we have to divide by 100 we obtain the exact result.

So, 2/100 is = 0.02

f = 0.02.

What is the probability that x is between $34 and $38?

Answers

The probability that ( x) is between $34 and $38 is 0.6826 or 68.26%.

To find the probability that a random variable ( x) is between $34 and $38, we need to use the probability density function (PDF) if ( x) follows a continuous distribution. Let's assume ( x ) follows a normal distribution with a mean [tex](\( \mu \))[/tex] of $36 and a standard deviation [tex](\( \sigma \))[/tex] of $2.

Calculate the z-scores for $34 and $38:

[tex]\[ z_1 = \frac{34 - 36}{2} = -1 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ z_2 = \frac{38 - 36}{2} = 1 \][/tex]

Look up the z-scores in the standard normal distribution table:

[tex]\[ P(z_1 < Z < z_2) = P(-1 < Z < 1) \][/tex]

Find the probabilities corresponding to these z-scores:

[tex]\[ P(Z < 1) = 0.8413 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ P(Z < -1) = 0.1587 \][/tex]

Subtract the two probabilities:

[tex]\[ P(-1 < Z < 1) = P(Z < 1) - P(Z < -1) = 0.8413 - 0.1587 = 0.6826 \][/tex]

So, the probability that ( x) is between $34 and $38 is 0.6826 or 68.26%.

Answers

B the answer to the problem
Final answer:

The conditional probability that event a will occur given that event b has occurred, denoted as p(a | b), is approximately 0.3 or 30%.

Explanation:

The question is asking for the conditional probability of the event a given that event b has occurred, written as p(a | b). In probability theory, the formula for conditional probability is p(a | b) = p(a ∩ b) / p(b). Here, we already know that p(a ∩ b) = 0.14 and p(b) = 0.46. Substituting these values into the formula gives us:

p(a | b) = 0.14 / 0.46 = 0.304347826.

So, the probability of event a occurring given that event b has occurred is approximately 0.3 or 30%.

Determine whether or not f is a conservative vector field. if it is, find a function f such that f = ∇f. if it is not, enter none. f(x, y) = (yex + sin y) i + (ex + x cos y) j

Answers

The given field is
[tex]f(x,y) = (y \ e^{x} + sin(y) \hat{i} + (e^{x}+x \, cosy) \hat{j}[/tex]

Note that if the field is of the form
[tex]\vec{f} = P\hat{i} + Q\hat{j}[/tex]
then the condition for the field to be conservative is that
[tex] \frac{\partial P}{\partial y} = \frac{\partial Q}{\partial x} [/tex]

For the given field,
[tex] \frac{\partial P}{\partial y} =e^{x} + cos y \\ \frac{\partial Q}{\partial x} = e^{x}+cosy [/tex]

Because the condition is satisfied, the given field is conservative.
To find the function that satisfies
[tex]f= \bigtriangledown f[/tex]

[tex]f(x,y) = \int P(x,y)dx = ye^{x} + x\, siny + g(y)[/tex]
Because [tex] \frac{\partial P}{\partial y} = \frac{\partial Q}{\partial x} [/tex], therefore
[tex] \frac{\partial f}{\partial y} =e^{x} + x \, siny + g'(y)[/tex]
Because [tex] \frac{\partial f}{\partial y} =Q = e^{x} + x \, cosy [/tex]
therefore
g'(y) = 0
g = c  (constant).

Answer:
(a) The given function is conservative.
(b) The function is
[tex]f(x,y) = ye^{x} + x \, siny + c[/tex]
where c =  constant.

Final answer:

The vector field f(x, y) = (yex + sin y) i + (ex + x cos y) j is conservative because its curl vanishes everywhere. The function F such that ∇F = f is yex + cos y + C.

Explanation:

To determine if the given function f(x, y) = (yex + sin y) i + (ex + x cos y) j is a conservative vector field, we need to see if the curl of the vector field vanishes everywhere. The curl of a vector field in two dimensions is the partial derivative of the j component with respect to x minus the partial derivative of the i component with respect to y.

For f(x, y), the partial derivative of the j component (ex + x cos y) with respect to x is ex + cos y, and the partial derivative of the i component (yex + sin y) with respect to y is ex + cos y. Both derivatives are equal, implying the curl is zero. Hence, f(x, y) is a conservative vector field.

Next, to find a function F such that ∇F = f, we need to integrate. The potential function, F, can be obtained by integrating the i component of f with respect to x (since it does not involve y), and the j component of f with respect to y (since it does not involve x): ∫yex dx + ∫sin y dy = yex + cos y + C. This is the function F such that ∇F = f.

1. As x approaches 1,  f(x) approaches  3-1,  that is 2.

If a = 2 and b = 3,   f(1) = 2(1)^2 + 3(1)  = 5

So there is a 'jump' in values of x at x = 1.  So its not continuous at x=1.

2.  For continuity  at x = 1, ax^2  + bx must = 2  that is when a + b = 2.

3. for continuity at x = 2 , ax^2 + bx  must be = 0 that is when a*2^2 + 2b = 0

- that is 4a + 2b = 0.

4. we have system of equations:-

a + b = 2
4a + 2b = 0 

this gives a = -2 and b = 4   So  f(x) is continuous when a = -2 and b = 4.

Prove or disprove that the product of two irrational numbers is irrational

Answers

Hi. The statement you gave is somewhat true, but not always. I disprove this and there are tons of websites that can help you with more in depth explanation. Have a good day.

The product of two irrational numbers can be either rational or irrational.

The product of two irrational numbers is not always irrational. To understand this, let's consider an example and a counterexample.

Example of an Irrational Product

Take the square root of 2 (\/(2)) and the square root of 3 (\/(3)). Both of these numbers are irrational. Their product is:

\/2 × \/3 = \/6

Since \/6 cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers (making it irrational), this is an example where the product of two irrational numbers is irrational.

Counterexample of a Rational Product

Now, consider another example with \/(2) and \/(2). Since both are irrational, their product is:

\/2 × \/2 = 2

Here, 2 is a rational number because it can be written as a fraction (2/1). Therefore, this is a counterexample where the product of two irrational numbers is rational.

In summary, the product of two irrational numbers can be either rational or irrational depending on the specific numbers involved.

if f'(2) = 3.1 and g'(2)=7.3 then the graph of f(x)+g(x) has slope 10.4 at x=2.True or false

Answers

For functions, its derivative on a certain variable is its slope. This means that the slope of f(2) is 3.1 and that of g(2) is equal to 7.3. 

To determine the slope of the f(x) + g(x) in terms of x is equal to,
             f'(x) + g'(x) 
Then, substitute x with 2,
            f'(2) + g'(2)
Substituting the known values,
           3.1 + 7.3 = 10.4

Hence, the answer is TRUE. 

Final answer:

The statement is true, as the slope of the graph of f(x)+g(x) at x=2 is the sum of the slopes of f and g at that point, which equals 10.4.

Explanation:

The statement is true.

In calculus, the derivative of a function at a particular point measures the rate at which the function is changing at that point. It is analogous to the slope of the tangent line to the graph of the function at that point.

When we are given that f'(2) = 3.1 and g'(2) = 7.3, these values represent the slopes of the functions f and g at x = 2, respectively.

To find the slope of f(x) + g(x) at x = 2, we simply add the slopes of f and g at that point. This is based on the rule that the derivative of the sum of two functions is the sum of their derivatives, or symbolically, (f+g)' = f' + g'.

Therefore, the slope of the graph of f(x)+g(x) at x=2 is indeed 10.4 (3.1 + 7.3).

What you put on social media matters. Why does it matter and how will you ensure your social media postings reflect you professionally?

Answers

It matters because what you post is a type of reflection on you and if it’s something bad or law worthy you could get into a lot of trouble.. just because you delete something doesn’t mean it’s gone, your future jobs check your social media and anything about you before they hire you.. you ensure what you post reflects you professionally by thinking about it before you post it and if it’s something you don’t want your parents or even police or if you start feeling uncomfortable or iffy about posting don’t post it and you should be fine.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Great question, it is always good to ask away and get rid of any doubts that you may be having.

As a professional what you put on social media matters a lot. Social Media postings show all what you are thinking or doing to hundreds, thousands, or even millions of people. If you are an artist you depend on those people (fans) to continue supporting you and your art so a single wrong post can turn a lot of people against you.

If you work for a company you are not only representing yourself through your posts but the company as well. This is because a company hires you for the person that you are therefore it is seen through the public eye that they share your way of thinking.

The best way for your postings to reflect you professionally, is to post only things relating to your own career and journey. While leaving out any opinions, personal information, and controversial topics.
