    You won't learn if I just spoonfeed you the answer. In the bolded part, why did you pick only the positive square root? Why did you ignore/reject the negative square root?

    Ok lets start with y=8(x-1)3 You said earlier to swap the x and y to find the inverse function. Do you know how to do that for y=8(x-1)3? Also do you know how to find the domain and range of that function?

    Have you looked through your notes or textbook again to see how to sketch it? Okay, so using that information what is the equation of the inverse function of y=-ln(x+1)? Have you looked through your notes or textbook again to see what that important graphical relationship is?

    Can assessments be due in the same week as trials?

    I'm assuming you mean assessments other than trials? There is no rule. I've had practical assessments for my science subjects in the same week as my trials.

    You got the question wrong. Assume that for some n=k \frac{1}{x^k(x-1)}=\frac{1}{x-1}-\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{x^2}-.........-\frac{1}{x^k} Now we can show that...

    Statistics Marathon & Questions

    Re: University Statistics Discussion Marathon This is needed if there is a sampling without replacement which I guess now looking at the question again is somewhat implied but not immediately obvious. If it is a sampling with replacement then what I had earlier is correct.

    Re: University Statistics Discussion Marathon $Since $X\sim N(100,100)$ then $\bar{X}\sim N\left(100,\frac{100}{50}\right)$ so $\\\\P(\bar{X} > 103)\\\\=P\left(\dfrac{\bar{X}-100}{\sqrt{\frac{100}{50}}}>\dfrac{103-100}{\sqrt{\frac{100}{50}}}\right)\\\\=P\left(Z> \dfrac{3}{\sqrt{2}}\right)\:$...

    For Q19 note that the break even point is where consumption equals income so substitute C=Y into the consumption function (which is equivalent to finding the intersection of the 45 degree line and the consumption function).
