what does the dot (.) stand for in math

Answers

Answer 1
The dot stands for multiplication for example
4 •6 = 24 same as 4x6=24






If you’re talking about decimals

It is a point or dot we use to separate the whole number part from the fractional part of a decimal number. ... The decimal point separates the whole number from the fractional part. Example: In the number 257.16, the decimal point separates the whole number 257 from the fractional part 16, which is 16 hundredths.
Answer 2

Answer:

The dot is called a decimal. Its what separates the whole number and the fraction of the number.

Caroline is correct because the equation y = (x-1)(x-5) is in factored form. If you solve the terms (x-1) and (x-5), you get the zeros (aka x-intercepts) of the graph.

Solve (set the terms equal to 0):

x-1 = 0     x = 1

x-5 = 0     x = 5

∴ the x-intercepts are (1,0) and (5,0).

The purple graph corresponds to the zeros in the equation, not the green graph. The green graph has negative x-intercepts, whereas the purple graph has positive x-intercepts like in the equation.

Suppose that the test score of a student taking the final of a probability course is a random variable with mean 76.

Required:
a. Give an upper bound for the probability that a student's test score will exceed 86. Suppose, in addition, that the professor knows that the variance of a student’s test score is equal to 25.
(b) What can be said about the probability that a student will score between 65 and 85?
c. How many students would have to take the examination to ensure, with probability at least .9, that the class average would be within 5 of 75? Do not use the central limit theorem.

Answers

Answer:

a. 0.8837

b. 0.6914

c. 10 student

Step-by-step explanation:

a. using markov's inequality; P(u >= X)<= E(u) / X

   mean u = 76

   X, test score = 86

= 76 / 86 = 0.8837

b. variance v = 25

   The test is between 65 and 85 P(65 <= X <= 85);

   P(|65 - X|<= |X - u| <= |85 - X|) = P(65 - 76 <= |X - u| <= 85 -76)

   = P(-11 <= |X - u| <= 9)

   = P(|X - u| <= 9)

using the chebyshev's inequality;

P(|X - u| <= 9) = 1 - variance / (standard deviation of individual test score)^2

   = 1 - 25/ 9^2

   = 1 - 25/81 = 1 - 0.3086 = 0.6914

c. P(|X - 76| <= 5) = 0.9

still using chebyshev's inequality;

= 1 - variance / lower limit^2 (E)

where E = 1 - 0.9 = 0.1

lower limit = 5

= 1 - 25/ 5^2 (0.1) = 10

Suppose a country's population at any time t grows in accordance with the rule dP dt = kP + I where P denotes the population at any time t, k is a positive constant reflecting the natural growth rate of the population, and I is a constant giving the (constant) rate of immigration into the country. If the total population of the country at time t = 0 is P0, find an expression for the population at any time t.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\mathbf{P =\bigg (P_o +\dfrac{ I}{k} \bigg)e^{kt}- \dfrac{I}{k}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A country population at any given time (t) is:

[tex]\dfrac{dP}{dt}= kP+I[/tex]

where;

P = population at any time t

k = positive constant

I = constant rate of immigration into the country.

Using the method of separation of the variable;

[tex]\dfrac{dP}{kP+1}= dt[/tex]

Taking integration on both sides:

[tex]\int \dfrac{dP}{kP+I}= \int \ dt[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1}{k} log (kP + I) = t+c_1 \ \ \ here: c_1 = constant \ of \ integration[/tex]

[tex]log (kP + I) =k t+kc_1[/tex]

By applying the exponential on both sides;

[tex]e^{log (kP + I) }=e^{k t+kc_1 }[/tex]

[tex]KP+I = e^{kt} *e^{kc_1}[/tex]

Assume [tex]e^{kc_1 }= C[/tex]

Then:

[tex]kP + I = Ce^{kt}[/tex]

[tex]kP = Ce^{kt}-I[/tex]

[tex]P =\dfrac{ Ce^{kt}-I}{k} \ \ \---- Let \ that \ be \ equation \ (1)[/tex]

When time t = 0, The Total population of the country is also [tex]P_o[/tex]

[tex]P_o = \dfrac{Ce^{0(t)} -I}{k}[/tex]

[tex]P_o = \dfrac{Ce^{0} -I}{k}[/tex]

[tex]P_o = \dfrac{C-I}{k}[/tex]

C - I = kP₀

C =  kP₀ + I

Substituting the value of C back into equation(1), we have:

[tex]P =\dfrac{ (kP_o+1)e^{kt}-I}{k}[/tex]

[tex]P =\dfrac{ (kP_o+1)e^{kt}}{k} - \dfrac{I}{k}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{P =\bigg (P_o +\dfrac{ I}{k} \bigg)e^{kt}- \dfrac{I}{k}}[/tex]

You’ve learned to identify whether a function is even or odd both graphically and algebraically. How does the notation for reflections over the x-axis and over the y-axis relate to the notation for even and odd functions? Remember that if f(-x) = f(x), a function is even, and if f(-x) = -f(x), then the function is odd.

Answers

Answer:

Because even and odd are 2 different ways to determine whether or not you get the right answer for the chosen function.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps!!!

Answer:

For even functions, we take f(-x) to be the starting function. The y-axis reflection of this function is f(-(-x)), which is equal tof(x). So the relationship f(-x) = f(x) means that the function is the same as its y-axis reflection.

For odd functions, there are two reflections that must occur. First, we start with f(-x). The y-axis reflection of this function is f(-(-x)) = f(x). When we apply an x-axis reflection to this result, we get -f(-(-x)) = -f(x). So the fact that f(-x) = -f(x) means that odd functions are the same as sequential reflections across both the x-axis and the y-axis. (The same sequence of reflections also represents a rotation 180 degrees about the origin).

Find the coordinates of the point P that divides the directed line segment from A to B in the given ratio.

A(-6, 9), B(2, 1); Ratio 5 to 3

Answers

Answer:

The coordinates of the point P = (x, y) = (-1, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the coordinates of P be (x, y)

(x₁, y₁) = (-6, 9)(x₂, y₂) = (2, 1)ratio = m:n = 5:3

Using the section formula

x = [(mx₂ + nx₁)] / [(m+n)]

   = [5(2)+3(-6)] / [5+3]

   = [10-18] / [8]

   = -8/8

    = -1

y = [(my₂ + ny₁)] / [(m+n)]

   = [5(1)+3(9)] / [5+3]

   = [5+27] / [8]

   = 32/8

    = 4

Therefore, the coordinates of the point P = (x, y) = (-1, 4)

Answers

Answer: Refer to the diagram below

P ' is at (-7, 9)Q ' is at (1, 9)R ' is at (-6, 4)

================================================

Explanation:

The diagram shows how point R moves to R'. We move up 2 units going from R(-6,0) to (-6,2). This lands us on the line of reflection. Then we move another 2 units up to land on (-6,4) which is the location of point R'.

The other points P and Q follow the same idea. Though the distances will be different from R. For P and Q, we'll move 7 units up to arrive at the line of reflection, then another 7 units to arrive at the proper locations of P' and Q', which are (-7,9) and (1,9) respectively.

Answer:

If we draw the line of y=2 and if we find the reflections we have the new points of...

R(-6,4)Q(1,9)P(-7,9)

Now all we have to do it plot these points, and then we have the triangle PQR
