A woman who has recovered from a serious illness begins a diet regimen designed to get her back to a healthy weight. She currently weighs 102 pounds. She hopes to increase her weight by 3% each week until she weighs 135 pounds. What number would you multiply by to get her weight after 1 week? What number would you multiple by to get her weight after 3 weeks? Define a function that describes here weight by the number of weeks since she started (use at least two different representations: an equation to model her weight as a function of number of weeks; a table that shows her weight over the weeks until she reaches her goal weight; a graph that shows her weight by the number of weeks.)
Contingency Table
A contingency table can be defined as the visual representation of the relationship between two or more categorical variables that can be evaluated and registered. It is a categorical version of the scatterplot, which is used to investigate the linear relationship between two variables. A contingency table is indeed a type of frequency distribution table that displays two variables at the same time.
Binomial Distribution
Binomial is an algebraic expression of the sum or the difference of two terms. Before knowing about binomial distribution, we must know about the binomial theorem.
**NOTE:** Please explain
- In detail each step you are taking in solving the problem.
- Show each step in the solving process and write a justification for that step.
A woman who has recovered from a serious illness begins a diet regimen designed to get her back to a healthy weight. She currently weighs 102 pounds. She hopes to increase her weight by 3% each week until she weighs 135 pounds.
- What number would you multiply by to get her weight after 1 week?
- What number would you multiple by to get her weight after 3 weeks?
- Define a function that describes here weight by the number of weeks since she started (use at least two different representations: an equation to model her weight as a function of number of weeks; a table that shows her weight over the weeks until she reaches her goal weight; a graph that shows her weight by the number of weeks.)
- How many weeks does it take her to reach her target of 135 pounds (solve this part in 2 different ways using the different representation of the function from part c)? Do your answers match?
