Explanation Given information: The expression is 19.8 601.92 . Explanation: The steps for dividing by a decimal are as follows: Change the divisor into a whole number by moving the decimal point in the divisor to its right by as many spaces required. Here, the divisor is 19.8 . To write it as a whole number, shift the decimal point one place to the right. Thus, 19.8 becomes 198 . In dividend move the decimal point by the same number of places as in the divisor. Here, the dividend is 601.92 . Since the decimal point in the divisor is moved one place to its right, the decimal point in the dividend should also be moved one place to its right. Thus, 601.92 becomes 6019.2 . That is, 19.8 601.92 now becomes 198. 6019.2 . Now, in the quotient, the decimal point should be exactly above the decimal point of the dividend as shown below: . 198. 6019.2 Now, the divisor is 198 , and as the divisor is of three digits, first consider the three digits of the dividend. First three digits of dividend is 601 . Therefore, divide the first three digits 601 by 198 . 601 ÷ 198 = 3 with 7 left. Write this estimate 3 in the quotient, and subtract 3 × 198 = 594 from the 601 , as shown below. 3 . 198 6019.2 − 594 _ 7 Since 7 is less than the divisor 198 , bring down 9 right to the 7 . 3 . 198 6019.2 − 594 _ 79 Now, divide 79 by 198 Since 79 is less than 198 , that gives 0 in the quotient. 3 0 . 198 6019.2 − 594 _ 79 − 0 _ 79 Since 79 is less than divisor 198 , bring down 2 right to the 9

Angles in Circles

Angles within a circle are feasible to create with the help of different properties of the circle such as radii, tangents, and chords. The radius is the distance from the center of the circle to the circumference of the circle. A tangent is a line made p…

Arcs in Circles

A circular arc is the arc of a circle formed by two distinct points. It is a section or segment of the circumference of a circle. A straight line passing through the center connecting the two distinct ends of the arc is termed a semi-circular arc.

A normal distribution has a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 4. Solve the following three parts? 1. Compute the probability of a value between 44.0 and 55.0. (The question requires finding probability value between 44 and 55. Solve it in 3 steps. In the first step, use the above formula and x = 44, calculate probability value. In the second step repeat the first step with the only difference that x=55. In the third step, subtract the answer of the first part from the answer of the second part.) 2.

Assume that you fancy polynomial splines, while you actually need ƒ(t) = e²/3 – 1 for t€ [−1, 1]. See the figure for a plot of f(t). Your goal is to approximate f(t) with an inter- polating polynomial spline of degree d that is given as sa(t) = • Σk=0 Pd,k bd,k(t) so that sd(tk) = = Pd,k for tk = −1 + 2 (given d > 0) with basis functions bd,k(t) = Σi±0 Cd,k,i = • The special case of d 0 is trivial: the only basis function b0,0 (t) is constant 1 and so(t) is thus constant po,0 for all t = [−1, 1]. ...9 The d+1 basis functions bd,k (t) form a ba- sis Bd {ba,o(t), ba,1(t), bd,d(t)} of the function space of all possible sα (t) functions. Clearly, you wish to find out, which of them given a particular maximal degree d is the best-possible approximation of f(t) in the least- squares sense. _ 1 0.9 0.8 0.7 0.6 0.5 0.4 0.3 0.2 0.1 0 -0.1 -0.2 -0.3 -0.4 -0.5 -0.6 -0.7 -0.8 -0.9 -1 function f(t) = exp((2t)/3) - 1 to project -1 -0.9 -0.8 -0.7 -0.6 -0.5 -0.4 -0.3 -0.2 -0.1 0 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5…
