Amy and Samiha have a hat that contains two playing cards, one ace and one king. They are playing a game where they randomly pick a card out of the hat four times, with replacement.
Amy thinks that the probability of getting exactly two aces in four picks is equal to the probability of not getting exactly two aces in four picks. Samiha disagrees. She thinks that the probability of not getting exactly two aces is greater.
The sample space of possible outcomes is listed below. A represents an ace, and K represents a king. Who is correct?
Consider the exponential function f(x) = 12x. Complete the sentences about the key features of the graph.
The domain is all real numbers.
The range is y> 0.
The equation of the asymptote is y = 0
The y-intercept is 1
The details of the clock sales at a supermarket for the past 6 weeks are shown in the table below. The time series appears to be relatively stable, without trend, seasonal, or cyclical effects. The simple moving average value of k is set at 2. If the smoothing constant is assumed to be 0.7, and setting
F1 and F2=A1,
what is the exponential smoothing sales forecast for week 7? Round to the nearest whole number.
