Geometric Sequences HELP ASAP!

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

The table for a geometric sequence.

To find:

The formula for the given sequence and the 10th term of the sequence.

Solution:

In the given geometric sequence, the first term is 1120 and the common ratio is:

[tex]r=\dfrac{a_2}{a_1}[/tex]

[tex]r=\dfrac{560}{1120}[/tex]

[tex]r=0.5[/tex]

The nth term of a geometric sequence is:

[tex]a_n=ar^{n-1}[/tex]

Where a is the first term and r is the common ratio.

Putting [tex]a=1120, r=0.5[/tex], we get

[tex]a_n=1120(0.5)^{n-1}[/tex]

Therefore, the required formula for the given sequence is [tex]a_n=1120(0.5)^{n-1}[/tex].

We need to find the 10th term of the given sequence. So, substituting [tex]n=10[/tex] in the above formula.

[tex]a_{10}=1120(0.5)^{10-1}[/tex]

[tex]a_{10}=1120(0.5)^{9}[/tex]

[tex]a_{10}=1120(0.001953125)[/tex]

[tex]a_{10}=2.1875[/tex]

Therefore, the 10th term of the given sequence is 2.1875.

3x + 2 = 17

Step 2: Solve for x

[Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 2 on both sides:                        3x = 15[Division Property of Equality] Divide 3 on both sides:                                  x = 5

Answer:

you subtract two both side, then divide three both side, you'll get x = 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 2 = 17

(3x + 2) -2 = (17) -2. First, you subtract 2 for both sides

3x = 15

(3x)/2 = (15)/2. Second, you divide 3 both side

x = 5. Last, you get your answer

A two-sample t-test for a difference in means will be conducted to investigate whether the average amount of money spent per customer at Department Store M is different from that at Department Store V. From a random sample of 35 customers at Store M, the average amount spent was $300 with standard deviation $40. From a random sample of 40 customers at Store V, the average amount spent was $290 with standard deviation $35. Assuming a null hypothesis of no difference in population means, what is the test statistic for the appropriate test to investigate whether there is a difference in population means?

Answers

The test statistic is 1.145 for the appropriate test to investigate whether there is a difference in population means.

A test statistic is a numerical value calculated from sample data in hypothesis testing.

Given that

Sample 1: Store M

Sample size, [tex]n_1[/tex] = 35,

Sample mean, [tex]\bar{X_1}[/tex] = 300,

Standard deviation, [tex]s_1[/tex] = 40.

Sample 2: Store V

Sample size, [tex]n_2[/tex] = 40,

Sample mean, [tex]\bar{X_2}[/tex] = 290,

Standard deviation, [tex]s_2[/tex] = 35.

The null hypothesis, [tex]H_o[/tex] : there is no difference in population means, i.e.,

[tex]\mu_1 =\mu_2[/tex].

The alternate hypothesis, [tex]H_1[/tex] : there is a significant difference in population means, i.e.,

[tex]\mu_1 \neq\mu_2[/tex].

Under the null hypothesis, the test statistic is

[tex]t = \dfrac{\bar{X_1}-\bar{X_2}}{\sqrt{\frac{s_1^2}{n_1}+\frac{s_2^2}{n_2} }}[/tex]

  [tex]= \dfrac{300-290}{\sqrt{\frac{40^2}{35}+\frac{35^2}{40} }}\\=\dfrac{10}{\sqrt{\frac{1600}{35}+\frac{1225}{40} }} \\=\dfrac{10}{\sqrt{45.714+30.625 }} \\=\dfrac{10}{\sqrt{76.339 }}\\=\dfrac{10}{8.737}\\=1.145[/tex]

Hence the test statistic is 1.145.

If you sleep 6 hours a day every day for a year you are sleeping of every year. If there are 365 days in a year, how
many days per year would you sleep? Simplify your answer and write it as a mixed number.
days

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

365 x 24 = 8,760

365 x 6 = 2,190

8,760 - 2,190 = 6,570

6,570 / 24 = 273 3/4

The person sleeps 91 (1/4) days per year.

What is multiplication?

Multiplication is the process of adding a number up to a given number.

Given that, the person sleeps 6 hours a day.

The total hours of sleeping over a year are:

365 × 6

= 2190 hours per year

Since there are 24 hours in a day, divide 2190 by 24 to get the answer in days per hour:

2190/24

= 91 (1/4)

Hence, the person sleeps 91 (1/4) days per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change is the derivative of the function.

[tex]f(x) = \frac{10}{x-4}\\\\f'(x)=10\times \frac {d}{dx}\frac{1}{x-4}\\\\f'(x)=\frac{-10}{(x-4)^{2}}\\\\f'(2) = \frac{-10}{(2-4)^{2}} =-2.5\\\\f'(8)= \frac{-10}{(8-4)^{2}} =-0.625\\[/tex]

Find the Area of the shaded region. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

210 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is made up of a rectangle 15 ft by 12 ft and a triangle with base 15 ft and height 4 ft.

A = LW + BH/2

A = (15 ft)(12 ft) + (15 ft)(4 ft)/2

A = 180 ft^2 + 30 ft^2

A = 210 ft^2

Answer:

210ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one, find the area of the square. --->

A= bh (Area equals base times the height)

15×12=180

Step two, find the area of the triangle.

A=bh÷2 (Area equals base times the height divided by 2)

4×15= 60÷2= 30

Step three, add the solutions together

180+30=210

Thus,

Angle 2 is an exterior angle along the transversal line and alternates angle 7, which is another exterior angle.

Sum of the interior angles of any triangle equal 180 degrees , Thus :

A + B + C = 180

48 + B + 67 = 180

B + 115 = 180

B = 180 - 115

B = 65 degrees

Answer:

B = 65°

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of triangle,

→ 180° = A + B + C

→ 180° = 48° + B + 67°

→ 180° = 115° + B

→ B = 180° - 115°

→ B = 65°

Determine the percentage of values occurring above and below that value

==========================================================

Explanation:

Let's go through the answer choices

A) If we add up all the scores and divide by n, which is the number of scores, then we get the sample mean xbar. We can refer to this as simply the mean. This won't get us the percentile, so we can rule out choice A.B) Subtracting the max and min gets us the range. Range = max - min. We can rule out choice B. C) We can rule out choice C. The steps described here determine the mean absolute deviation (MAD) which is similar in nature to the standard deviation. It tells us how spread out the data set is, so it's somewhat related to the range as well. Unfortunately, we can't figure anything about percentiles with this.D) This must be the answer as there isn't anything left. Turns out this set of steps is the correct method to find the percentile. Technically all you need to do is the "below" portion and ignore the "above" portion of the statement. If we say "the 25th percentile is K", then that is another way of saying "25% of the data is below K".
