Arithmetic mean Definition and 22 Threads

TL;DR Summary: ##x=\sqrt[7]{13}+\sqrt[6]{13}##, ##y=\sqrt[5]{13}+\sqrt[8]{13}## , ##z=\sqrt[3]{13}+\sqrt[10]{13}## ##x=\sqrt[7]{13}+\sqrt[6]{13}## , ##y=\sqrt[5]{13}+\sqrt[8]{13}## , ##z=\sqrt[3]{13}+\sqrt[10]{13}## Order the given radical numbers. I have no idea. I don't want to use...

So I was thinking about arithmetic, geometric and harmonic means when I had a thought. Let's say we have a curve y = x^2. We want to find the AM of the points on the curve between x=1 and x=2 i.e. y = 1 and y = 4. To make thing easier, we'll start with just the endpoints and keep adding...

Calculation of probability with arithmetic mean of random variables There are 4 people, each of whom has one deck of cards with 500 cards that are numbered from 1 to 500 with no duplicates. Each person draws a card from his deck and I would like to calculate the probability of the event that...

The Beer-Lambert law gives the intensity of monochromatic light as a function of depth ##z## in the form of an exponential attenuation: $$I(z)=I_{0}e^{-\gamma z},$$ where ##\gamma## is the wavelength-dependent attenuation coefficient. However, if two different wavelengths are present...

Homework Statement The problem is stated as follows: "The result in Problem 1-7 has an important generalization: If ##a_1,...,a_n≥0##, then the "arithmetic mean" ##A_n=\frac {a_1+...+a_n} {n}## and "geometric mean" ##G_n=\sqrt[n] {a_1...a_n}## Satisfy ##G_n≤A_n## Suppose that ##a_1\lt A_n##...

Given two positive numbers a and b, we define the geometric mean and the arithmetic mean as follows G. M. = sqrt{ab} A. M. = (a + b)/2 If a = 1 and b = 2, which is larger, G. M. or A. M. ? G. M. = sqrt{1•2} G. M. = sqrt{2} A. M. = (1 + 2)/2 A. M = 3/2 Conclusion: G. M. > A. M. Correct...

Hi. Let's say I have data which I have measured. For example I measured a length of an object and the measurment was repeated 5 times. An instrument which I used to measure has an error, value of which I know. My options are to either to just go with the instrument error (probably not, right?)...

Hi everybody, I was doing one asignment form class, I was tasked to prove that in one system, the arimetic mean of FD and BE distributions is equal to MB's distribution for undishtingable particles. After doing the numbers I found out that it actually was, but I don't know why this happens, can...

Homework Statement Let ## a,b,c \in \mathbb{R}^{+} ##. Prove that $$ \sqrt[3]{abc} \leq \frac{a+b+c}{3}. $$ Note: ## a,b,c ## can be expressed as ## a = r^3, b = s^3, c = t^3 ## for ## r,s,t > 0##. Homework Equations ## P(a,b,c): a,b,c \in \mathbb{R}^{+} ## ## Q(a,b,c): \sqrt[3]{abc} \leq...

Why is the geometric mean used to define the center frequency of a bandpass filter instead of the arithmetic mean? I read in this book that 1. All the lowpass elements yield LC pairs that resonate at ω = 1. 2. Any point of the lowpass response is transformed into a pair of points of the...

Homework Statement Showing all your working, calculate the arithmetic mean and standard deviation of the number of days lost. Table shows man days lost to sickness.. Days lost: 1-3 4-6 7-9 10-12 13-15 Frequency 8 7 10 9 6 Homework Equations...

Can the arithmetic mean of a data set of complex numbers be calculated? if so, can the method be demonstrated?

Homework Statement If four distinct points on the curve y=2x^4+7x^3+3x-5 are collinear, then find the arithmetic mean of x-coordinates of the aforesaid points. Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution I think that the four points mentioned must be the roots of the equation.

My discrete mathematics book gives the following definition for the pigeonhole principle: If m objects are distributed into k containers where m > k, then one container must have more than \lfloor\frac{m-1}{k}\rfloor objects. It then states as a corollary that the arithmetic mean of a set...

Homework Statement Two consecutive numbers from 1,2,3...n are removed A.M of remaining numbers is 105/4. Find n and those numbers removed .Homework Equations Answer n = 50 those numbers are 7 and 8 The Attempt at a Solution I solved this question like a few weeks ago but now it escaped my...

PROVE mean (X bar) of a continuous distribution is given by: [SIZE="7"] ∫x.f(x)dx {'a' is the lower limit of integration and 'b' is the upper limit}

Homework Statement prove: lim x_n = L. Then \lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{x_1+\cdots+x_n}{n}=L Homework Equations The Attempt at a Solution i don't know abolutely. i tried definition \left|\frac{x_1+\cdots+x_n}{n}-L\right|=\frac{1}{n}\left|(x_1-L)+\cdots+(x_n-L)\right|

Homework Statement let r_{1}, r_{2}, ... , r_{n} be strictly positive numbers. Suppose an investment of one dollar at the beginning of the year k grows to 1+r_{k} at the end of year k (so that r_{k} is the "return on investment" in year k). Then the value of an investment of one dollar at...

Homework Statement A question gives the problem find the two arithmetic means between 4 and 19. The answer is 9 and 14. Homework Equations (a1+a2+a3+an)/n The Attempt at a Solution Logic would dictate that the arithmetic mean would be adding 4 and 19 then dividing by two. Leaving...

Homework Statement When finding the arithmetic mean in a system of equations is there any reason why the method that I am using is wrong? Find the arithmetic mean of x and y in the following set of equations Homework Equations 3x + 5y = 65 and 7x + 14y = 175 The Attempt at...

Homework Statement Prove if that if the limit of a_n = c as n approaches infinity, then the limit of o_n = c as n approaches infinity, where o_n is the arithmetic mean (a_1 + ... + a_n)/n Homework Equations I can't figure out how to bound it from below. The Attempt at a Solution...

Hey, (sin A + sin B + sin C)/3 >= \sqrt[3]{}(sin A*sin B*sin C) I know this is true by Arithmetic mean always greater than geometric mean... but is there any other way of proving this?
