The limit of the ratio of the probabilities is[tex]$\frac{3}{4}$[/tex].

(a) To find the recursion formula for [tex]$\$ W_{-} a(u) \$$[/tex], we use the following formula:

[tex]$$W_a(u)=P(Z=a)+\sum_{k=0}^{u-1} P(Z=a+3 k) W_a(u-1-k)$$[/tex]

where [tex]$\$ \mathrm{a} \$$[/tex] is a non-negative integer and [tex]$\$ \mathrm{u} \$$[/tex] is a positive integer.

Using the given probabilities, we have:

[tex]$$\begin{aligned}& W_0(u)=p+\sum_{k=0}^{u-1} r W_0(u-1-k) \\& W_1(u)=q+\sum_{k=0}^{u-1} p W_1(u-1-k)+\sum_{k=0}^{u-1} r W_1(u-1-k-1) \\& W_3(u)=r+\sum_{k=0}^{u-1} q W_3(u-1-k)\end{aligned}$$[/tex]

We take the limit as [tex]$\$$[/tex] u [tex]$\$$[/tex] approaches infinity:

[tex]$$\lim _{u \rightarrow \infty} W_0(u)+\lim _{u \rightarrow \infty} W_1(u)+\lim _{u \rightarrow \infty} W_3(u)=1$$[/tex]

Since [tex]$\$ E[Z] < 1 \$$[/tex], we have. Also, from part (a), we have:

[tex]$$\begin{aligned}& \lim _{u \rightarrow \infty} W_0(u)=\lim _{u \rightarrow \infty} W_0(u-1) \\& \lim _{u \rightarrow \infty} W_1(u)=p \lim _{u \rightarrow \infty} W_1(u-1)+\lim _{u \rightarrow \infty} W_1(u-2)\end{aligned}$$[/tex]

solve for the limits as:

In order to identify labeled points that do not lie on the x-y plane, several methods can be utilized.

The software tools MATLAB, Python's Matplotlib or Excel can be used to create a 3D plot of the labeled points. Through this approach, non-planar points become easily recognizable. It is possible to label points with different colors or symbols, based on their classification which would provide an added advantage in noticing any types of pattern or trends.

An alternate route involves having access to equation(s) of the fitted plane (e.g., by means of linear regression). Herein lies the ability to measure the distance between each point and the plane using the point-to-plane distance formula. Based upon fitting, if any point has substantial distance from the plane then it is likely to be situated off the plane.

From mass unit conversion where using a numeric constant ( 0.001), the total weight of vegitables ( carrots and beans) in a bag is equals to the 3.420 kilograms.

A unit conversion is used to expresses the same property as a different unit of measurement. Unit conversion is a process with serval steps that involves multiplication or division by a numerical factor called conversion factor. So, there are different unit conversions charts like mass unit conversation, length unit conversion etc. Now, we have, a bag contains carrots and beans.

Weight of carrots in bag = 3 kg

weight of beans in bag = 420 grams

We have to determine total weight that bag contains. As we see both weights are present in different units ( i.e, kg and grams). Using unit conversion, 1 kilogram = 1000 grams

=>[tex] 1 gram= \frac{1}{1000}=0.001 kg[/tex]

So, 420 grams = 420× 0.001 = 0.420 kg

Total weight of vegitables in bag = weight of carrots + weight of beans

The probability that more than one flat screen television will be produced in 2 hours is 0.2642.

(a) To find the probability that no flat screen television was produced on a particular day, we can use the Poisson distribution formula:

P(X = 0) = (e^(-λ) * λ^0) / 0!

where λ is the average number of flat screen televisions produced per day, which is 3 in this case.

P(X = 0) = (e^(-3) * 3^0) / 0! = 0.0498 (rounded to four decimal places)

Therefore, the probability that no flat screen television was produced on a particular day is 0.0498.

(b) To find the probability that there are at most nine flat screen televisions produced in 3 days, we can use the cumulative Poisson distribution formula:

P(X ≤ 9) = ∑(k=0 to 9) [(e^(-λ) * λ^k) / k!]

where λ is the average number of flat screen televisions produced per day, which is 3 in this case. To find the probability for 3 days, we need to multiply λ by 3.

P(X ≤ 9) = ∑(k=0 to 9) [(e^(-9) * 9^k) / k!] = 0.5874 (rounded to four decimal places)

Therefore, the probability that there are at most nine flat screen televisions produced in 3 days is 0.5874.

(c) If the production line only functions 8 hours a day, we can adjust λ accordingly. Since there are 24 hours in a day and the production line is functioning for 8 hours, the average number of flat screen televisions produced in 2 hours would be λ/3.

So, the new λ would be 3/3 = 1.

To find the probability that more than one flat screen television will be produced in 2 hours, we can use the Poisson distribution formula:

P(X > 1) = 1 - P(X ≤ 1)

P(X ≤ 1) = (e^(-1) * 1^0) / 0! + (e^(-1) * 1^1) / 1! = 0.7358 (rounded to four decimal places)

P(X > 1) = 1 - 0.7358 = 0.2642 (rounded to four decimal places)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the common ratio and first 3 terms of a decreasing geometric progression with the sum of the first three terms being 7, and their product being 8.

Let the first term be represented by x, and let r represent the common ratio. Then the first three terms are ...

  x, xr, xr²

Their sum is ...

  7 = x +xr +xr²

Their product is ...

  8 = (x)(xr)(xr²) = (xr)³

Taking the cube root of the product equation, we have ...

  2 = xr

Substituting this into the first equation, we have ...

  7 = x +2 + 2r

  5 = x +2r   ⇒   x = 5 -2r

And substituting back into the above, we get ...

  2 = (5 -2r)(r)

  2r² -5r +2 = 0

  (2r -1)(r -2) = 0

  r = 2 or 1/2

We want r < 1, so r = 1/2.

  x = 5 -2(1/2) = 4

For x = 4, r = 1/2, the first three terms are ...

  x, xr, xr² = 4, 2, 1

The probability that the airline will lose at least 10 suitcases in a week is 0.1723 or about 17.23%.

Given information:

µ = 6.7 (mean)

σ = 3.5 (standard deviation)

We need to find the probability of losing at least 10 suitcases in a week. We can use the normal distribution formula to solve this problem:

P(X ≥ 10) = 1 - P(X < 10)

To use this formula, we need to standardize the variable X to the standard normal distribution with mean 0 and standard deviation 1. We can do this using the following formula:

Z = (X - µ) / σ

Substituting the given values, we get:

Z = (10 - 6.7) / 3.5

Z = 0.943

Now, we can use a standard normal distribution table or calculator to find the probability of Z being greater than or equal to 0.943. The table or calculator will give us the probability of Z being less than 0.943, which we can then subtract from 1 to get the desired probability.

Using a standard normal distribution table, we find that P(Z < 0.943) = 0.8277.

Therefore, P(X ≥ 10) = 1 - P(X < 10) = 1 - P(Z < 0.943) = 1 - 0.8277 = 0.1723.

So, the probability that the airline will lose at least 10 suitcases in a week is 0.1723 or about 17.23%.

a. There are 10 kg salt in the tank after t minutes

b.  After 30 minutes, the amount of salt in the tank is still 10 kg.

a) After t minutes, the amount of salt in the tank can be found by the formula:

Amount of salt = initial amount of salt + (rate of salt in - rate of salt out) x time

The initial amount of salt is 10 kg, and the rate of salt in is 0.01 kg/L x 15 L/min = 0.15 kg/min. The rate of salt out is also 0.01 kg/L x 15 L/min = 0.15 kg/min, because the solution is kept thoroughly mixed. Therefore, the amount of salt in the tank after t minutes is:

Amount of salt = 10 + (0.15 - 0.15) x t = 10 kg

b) After 30 minutes, the amount of salt in the tank is still 10 kg. This is because the rate of salt in and the rate of salt out are equal, and so the amount of salt in the tank remains constant. Therefore, the answer is the same as part (a), which is 10 kg

x1 - 2x2 + 21x3 = 0

x4 + x5 = 1

x6 - 2x7 = 0

x8 + x9 = 1

From the second and fourth equations, we can conclude that x4 and x8 are free variables, which means they can take on any value. Let's set them to be a and b, respectively.

Then, using the first and third equations, we can solve for x2, x3, x5, and x7 in terms of a and b:

x2 = (21/2)a - (1/2)b

x3 = a/2 - (21/4)b

x5 = 1 - a

x7 = b/2

Finally, substituting these values into the remaining equations, we can solve for x1 and x6:

x1 = 2x2 - 21x3 = -19a + (209/4)b

x6 = 2x7 = b

Therefore, the solution to the system of equations is:

If A is an m x n matrix, and let B be an n xp matrix such that AB = 0, then rank A + rank B ≤ n

To start, we can use the fact that for any matrix A, rank A + dim Nul A = n, where n is the number of columns in A. This is a result of the rank-nullity theorem.

Now, let's consider the subspaces associated with A and B. The column space of A, Col A, is a subspace of R^m, and the null space of A, Nul A, is a subspace of R^n. Similarly, the column space of B, Col B, is a subspace of R^n, and the null space of B, Nul B, is a subspace of R^p.

We want to show that rank A + rank B ≤ n, so let's consider the dimensions of the subspaces. We know that dim Col A = rank A and dim Col B = rank B. We also know that AB = 0, which means that every column of B is in the null space of A, Nul A. In other words, Col B is a subset of Nul A.

Using the fact that dim Col B + dim Nul B = n, we can write:

rank B + dim Nul B = n - dim Col B

Since Col B is a subset of Nul A, we know that dim Nul A ≥ dim Col B. Therefore:

dim Nul B ≥ dim Nul A

Substituting this inequality into the previous equation, we get:

rank B + dim Nul B ≥ rank B + dim Nul A = n - dim Col A

Finally, we can use the fact that rank A + dim Nul A = n to substitute for dim Nul A:

rank B + dim Nul B ≥ n - rank A

Adding rank A to both sides, we get:

rank A + rank B + dim Nul B ≥ n

But we know that dim Nul B ≥ 0, so:

rank A + rank B ≤ n

Therefore, we have shown that rank A + rank B ≤ n, as desired.
