In a small town in the Himalayas, the average snowfall each month is 6 inches. July is the month with the lowest average snowfall, of 1 inch. Construct a function that models this behavior. During what period is there more than 10 inches of snowfall?

Answers

The function that models the above behavior is given as:

f(x) = ACos(B(x + C)) + 6 ..... .......i

where x = 1 (that is January)

D (Average Snowfall) = 6.

Hence, the amplitude (A) is given as:
A = 6-1

= 5

What is a mathematical function?

A mathematical function is a function comprising of different variables that    represent different factors or events and the relationships between them.


During what period is there more than 10 inches of snowfall?

Recall that in a year we have 12 months. Hence, P = 12

→ P = (2π) /.B → (2π)/B = 12 → B = π/6

Taking the values of A and B and plugging them in, we ahve:

F(x) = 5 cos (π/6(x + C)) + 6................ii

This means that in July, we'll have

x = 7 and f(x) = 1

Therefore,

1 = 5cos ((π/6) (7 + C) + 6 → 5 Cos  ((π/6) (7 + C) →  -5cos ((π/6) (7 + C)

= -1

→   ((π/6) (7 + C) = π

→ 7 + C = 6

→ C = -1

Taking equation ii, we have

F(x) = 5cos ((π6) (x -1)) + 6

F (x) > 10

Therefore

5cos ((π/6) (x-1) + 6 > 10

→  cos ((π/6) (x-1) + 6 > 4/5

→  (π/6) (x-1)  > Cos⁻¹ (4/5)

(π/6) (x-1)  < 0.6435 and

(π/6) (x-1)  > 5.6397

→ x < 2.23 and x > 11.77

The interpretation is that upwards of ten inches of snow fall in January, February, November, and December.

What is an exponential function?

An exponential function is a mathematical function of the following form: f ( x ) = [tex]p^{x}[/tex] where x is a variable, and p is a constant called the base of the function. The most commonly encountered exponential function base is the transcendental number e.

Analysis:

If for every value of x being positive and y is a positive whole number and for every x being negative y is a positive fraction, then that exponential function has a whole number base, Other wise it would have a fractional base. From the above explanation, f has (1,3) (positive x and whole number y) and (-1, 1/3) (negative x and positive fraction y). so therefore f has a whole number base and g has a fraction base.

Therefore f(x) = [tex]3^{x}[/tex] and g(x) = [tex](\frac{1}{3} )^{x}[/tex]

9(9 + 2 + 3x) = 10(10 + 2x + 2)

9(11 + 3x) = 10(12 + 2x) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

99 + 27x = 120 + 20x ( subtract 20x from both sides )

Given a decile cut point value of 10.4, where the tenth sequential value is 32 and the eleventh value is 42, what is the actual decile value

Answers

The actual decile value is 126.6

To get the actual decile value, the decile formula is used. The formula used is:

Di = I (n+1) / 10 multiplied by (n - n+1)/10

This implies that the decreased fee, which in this case is 32 + 1, is delivered to the entire multiplication of the cut point 10.4, and the difference among the more tremendous value whilst organized in the ascending fee and the newly brought decreased value.

This gives:

33 + 10.4 * (42 - 33)

= 126.6

Ryan has $3$ red lava lamps and $3$ blue lava lamps. He arranges them in a row on a shelf randomly, then turns $3$ random lamps on. What is the probability that the leftmost lamp on the shelf is red, and the leftmost lamp which is turned on is also red

Answers

There are 6! = 720 ways of arranging the lamps.

If the leftmost lamp is red, there are 3 choices of lamp in the leftmost position, and the remaining 5 can be placed in any order, so there are 3×5! = 360 ways of arranging the lamps and the leftmost is red.

Hence there is a 360/720 = 1/2 probability that the leftmost lamp is red.

Ignoring lamp color for the moment, the probability of arranging 3 lit lamps and 3 unlit lamps is the same, 1/2.

Since Ryan arranges the lamps randomly by color, then turns 3 of them on randomly, the two events are independent. So

P(leftmost red AND leftmost lit) = P(red) × P(lit) = 1/2² = 1/4

The most important point here is that we do not know the altitude of the parallelogram; the area of a parallelogram is altitude times base.
