Evaluate the factorial expression 20!/ 17!(3-1)! Choose the correct answer from the options below a. 190 b. 1368 c. 3420 d. 58140

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

c. 3420

--------------------------

n! is called the factorial of n and shown as the product of the integers from 1 to n:

n! = n * (n - 1) * (n - 2) *...* 3 * 2 * 1

The given expression can be evaluated as:

20! / [ 17! (3 - 1)!] = 20*19*18 * 17! / (17!2!) = 20*19*18/2 = 3420

Hence the correct choice is c.

The sequence$$1,2,1,2,2,1,2,2,2,1,2,2,2,2,1,2,2,2,2,2,1,2,\dots$$consists of $1$'s separated by blocks of $2$'s with $n$ $2$'s in the $n^{\rm{th}}$ block. What is the sum of the first $1234$ terms of this sequence

Answers

Consider the lengths of consecutive 1-2 blocks.

block 1 - 1, 2 - length 2

block 2 - 1, 2, 2 - length 3

block 3 - 1, 2, 2, 2 - length 4

block 4 - 1, 2, 2, 2, 2 - length 5

and so on.


Recall the formula for the sum of consecutive positive integers,

[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{i=1}^j i = 1 + 2 + 3 + \cdots + j = \frac{j(j+1)}2 \implies \sum_{i=2}^j = \frac{j(j+1) - 2}2[/tex]

Now,

[tex]1234 = \dfrac{j(j+1)-2}2 \implies 2470 = j(j+1) \implies j\approx49.2016[/tex]

which means that the 1234th term in the sequence occurs somewhere about 1/5 of the way through the 49th 1-2 block.

In the first 48 blocks, the sequence contains 48 copies of 1 and 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 47 copies of 2, hence they make up a total of

[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{i=1}^48 1 + \sum_{i=1}^{48} i = 48+\frac{48(48+1)}2 = 1224[/tex]

numbers, and their sum is

[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{i=1}^{48} 1 + \sum_{i=1}^{48} 2i = 48 + 48(48+1) = 48\times50 = 2400[/tex]

This leaves us with the contribution of the first 10 terms in the 49th block, which consist of one 1 and nine 2s with a sum of [tex]1+9\times2=19[/tex].

So, the sum of the first 1234 terms in the sequence is 2419.

The lifetime of a certain type of battery is normally distributed with mean value 13 hours and standard deviation 1 hour. There are nine batteries in a package. What lifetime value (in hours) is such that the total lifetime of all batteries in a package exceeds that value for only 5% of all packages

Answers

The lifetime of the batteries in a package is 14.31 hours which exceeds that value for only 5% of all packages.

Give sample mean of 13 hours and standard deviation of 1 hour and sample size is 9.

We have to apply t test in this because the value of n which is sample size is less than 30.

We have been given the p value of the required mean so we have to find the t value for this with degree of freedom (9-1)=8

t value=2.306.

We know that

t=X bar-μ/s/[tex]\sqrt{n}[/tex]

s/[tex]\sqrt{n}[/tex]=1/[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]=0.57

Put all the values in the above formula to calculate required mean.

2.306=X bar-13/0.57

X bar=1.31442+13

=14.31442

after rounding off we get

X bar=14.31

Hence the lifetime of the batteries is 14.31 for which  the percentage exceeds 5%.

A square is folded into half to form a rectangle as shown below. The perimeter of the rectangle is 36 cm.
Calculate the area of the square.

Answers

Answer: 144 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The rectangle's length is twice as long as it's width as the square is folded in half. Let's say that the width's length is x, we get the equation

x + 2x + x + 2x = 36

6x = 36

x = 6 cm

The length of the rectangle is the length of the square which is 2x = 2 * 6 = 12 cm

So the area of the square is 12 * 12 = 144 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]

The diagonals of a rectangle measure x+5 feet and 2x+1 feet what is the value of x?

Answers

The value of x is 4.

Given that diagonals of a rectangle measure x+5 feet and 2x+1 feet as shown in the attached figure.

The diagonal of a rectangle is a line or straight line that connects the opposite corners or vertices of the rectangle.

In the given figure ABCD is a rectangle.

OA=2x+1 and OD=x+5             [Given]

AC and BD are diagonals of a rectangle.

As we know that the diagonals of a rectangle are always equal.

So, AC = BD

We can also write it as,

2×OA=2×OD

2×(2x+1) =2×(x+5)

Apply the distributive property a(b+c)=ab+ac, we get

4x+2=2x+10

Subtract 2x from both sides, we get

4x+2-2x=2x+10-2x

2x+2=10

Subtract 2 from both sides, we get

2x+2-2=10-2

2x=8

Divide both sides by 2, we get

2x/x=8/2

x=4

Hence, the value of x=4 when diagonals of a rectangle measure x+5 feet and 2x+1 feet.

The official height to width ratio of the United States flag is 1:1.9 If a United States flag is 6 feet high, how wide is it?

Answers

Answer:

11.4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

1/1.9 = h/w  (h= height, w=width)

Solving for w, gives you the formula

w = (1.9)h

This means the width is 1.9 times the height.

Use the formula to find the width where the height is 6 feet.

h = 6

w = (1.9)(6) = 11.4

The width is 11.4 feet.

We know that the rate at which a quantity multiplies itself over the independent factor, to increase the value of the function exponentially is known as its growth factor.

In the given function, f(x) = (1/3)(6ˣ), (1/3) remains unaffected with the change in the independent factor x, but 6 is exponentially increasing with x.

The Area of given figure is 341.6 square.

According to the statement

we have to find the total area of given figure.

Here a= 10 and h= 11

So, we use the formula is A = a(a + √((a)^2 + 4(h)^2))

where the a represent the base of given solid or sides of the equilateral triangle

And h represent the slant height of the solid.

So, Substitute the values in above formula then

A = 10(10 + √((10)^2 + 4(11)^2))

A = 10(10 + √((100 + 4(121))

A = 10(10 + √(100 + 484)

A = 10(10 + √(584)

A = 10(10 + 24.16)

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number is one that can be written exactly as an integer or ratio of integers. Written as a decimal number, it will have a finite number of digits, or a repeating decimal fraction.

Application

Usually, a number that can only be expressed exactly using a symbol will be irrational. For square roots, any root of an integer other than a perfect square will be irrational.

The integer 5 is not a perfect square. It is between the squares 2²=4 and 3²=9. The square root of 5 is irrational.

Additional comment

A reduced fraction whose denominator has factors other than 2 or 5 will translate to a repeating decimal. The number of repeating digits may be as many as 1 less than the denominator. For example, 1/19 has an 18-digit repeating decimal equivalent.

i) if the large number of new guests entering the fair happened at the same time that the new cheese pretzel stand open how would the equilibrium price and quantity for cheese pretzels change? Explain.

Answers

From the graph given, the equilibrium price and quantities are given respectively as;

Price = $5Quantity = 6 units of funnel cakes.

What is the total consumer spending on funnel cakes at the equilibrium point?

The total consumer spending(TCS) is achieved by finding the product of the price and the quantities at the equilibrium point.

Hence,
TCS = 5 * 6

= 60

What is the producer surplus and consumer surplus at equilibrium?

A) The producer surplus is the area of the triangle shaded yellow in the attached image.

Recall that he area of triangle is:

1/2 b *  h

b = 4

h = 6

Hence Area of the RA-Triangle (Producer Surplus) =

1/2 * 4 * 6

= 12

B) The Consumer surplus is the area of the triangle shaded Green in the attached image.

Recall that the area of triangle is:

1/2 b *  h

b = 4

h = 6

Hence Area of the RA-Triangle (Consumer Surplus) =

1/2 * 4 * 6

= 12

What would be the result if the suppliers charged $6?

If the suppliers charged $6, then the quantity demanded would drop to 4 units of  funnel cakes. It is demonstrated graphically. Recall that the law of demand and supply indicates that when prices goes up, demand comes down and vice versa.

Graph II illustrates what would happen if a large number of guests entered the fair. It would result to a right-ward shift in the demand curve.

Does the consumer surplus increase, decrease, or stay the same as a result of the change from part F?

Yes, there is an increase in the consumer surplus. Now there are more consumers hence the total amount they are willing to pay as an aggregate sum has increased from what was.
