Answer:
[tex]a_4 = -108[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]a_n = -3a_{n-1}[/tex]
[tex]a_1 = 4[/tex]
Required
Find [tex]a_4[/tex]
[tex]a_4 = -3a_{4-1}[/tex]
[tex]a_4 = -3a_3[/tex]
We calculate for a3
[tex]a_3 = -3a_{3-1}[/tex]
[tex]a_3 = -3a_2[/tex]
Calculate for a2
[tex]a_2 = -3a_{2-1[/tex]
[tex]a_2 = -3a_1[/tex]
Substitute 4 for a1
[tex]a_2 = -3*4[/tex]
[tex]a_2 = -12[/tex]
Substitute -12 for a2 in [tex]a_3 = -3a_2[/tex]
[tex]a_3 = -3 * -12[/tex]
[tex]a_3 = 36[/tex]
Substitute 36 for a3 in [tex]a_4 = -3a_3[/tex]
[tex]a_4 = -3*36[/tex]
[tex]a_4 = -108[/tex]

Diana and Michael, who are taking different classes, are arguing about who did better on their most recent test. Diana received a score of 92 on her History test and Michael received a 688 on his Math test. The mean test score for the History class is 71 with a standard deviation of 15.The mean test score for the Math class is 493 standard deviation of 150. Who did better, relative to other students in the same class? Justify your answer.
Answer:
Diana's score is better.
Step-by-step explanation:
In Diana case :
Score = 92
Mean score , μ = 71
Standard deviation σ = 15
So,
P( x ≥ 92 ) = 1 - P( x ≤ 92 )
= 1 - P(z ≤ [tex]\frac{x - u}{\sigma}[/tex] )
= 1 - P( z ≤ [tex]\frac{92 - 71 }{15}[/tex] )
= 1 - P( z ≤ 1.4 )
= 1 - 0.9192
= 0.0808 = 8.08 %
⇒P( x ≥ 92 ) = 8.08%
∴ we get
Diana score is > 91.92% other students in the class.
In Micheal case :
Score = 688
Mean score , μ = 493
Standard deviation σ = 150
So,
P( x ≥ 688 ) = 1 - P( x ≤ 688 )
= 1 - P(z ≤ [tex]\frac{x - u}{\sigma}[/tex] )
= 1 - P( z ≤ [tex]\frac{688 - 493 }{150}[/tex] )
= 1 - P( z ≤ 1.3 )
= 1 - 0.9032
= 0.0968 = 9.68 %
⇒P( x ≥ 688 ) = 9.68%
∴ we get
Micheal score is > 90.32% other students in the class.
From both scores , we can conclude that
Diana's score is better.
find the area of the shaded region under the
standard normal curve. If convenient, use technology to find the area
Answer
The area of the shaded region under the standard normal curve is 0.4834.
Step-by-step explanation:
A random variable X is said to have a normal distribution with mean, µ and variance σ².
Then , is a standard normal variate with mean, E (Z) = 0 and Var (Z) = 1. That is, Z N (0, 1).
The distribution of these z-variates is known as the standard normal distribution.
Compute the area under the curve between -2.13 and 0 as follows:
Thus, the area of the shaded region under the standard normal curve is 0.4834.
PLEASE HELP I'LL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!! According to the Census Bureau, in 2014 California had an estimated population of 3.88 × 107 and Wyoming had a population of 5.84 × 105. Complete the following sentences.
3.8216 × 107 0.38216 × 107 3.8216 × 106 38.216 × 107 0.66 × 101
66.4 × 101 6.64 × 101
The population of California is __________ more than the population of Wyoming
Alternatively, the population of California is _________ times the population of Wyoming.
Answer:
The population of California is [tex]3.3216 * 10^{7}[/tex] more than the population of Wyoming.
Alternatively, the population of California is [tex]6.64 * 10^{1}[/tex] times the population of Wyoming.
Step-by-step explanation:
The first part is to take the numbers out of the scientific notation. The estimated population of California is 38,800,000, and the population of Wyoming is 584,000.
Not that we've done that, let's start with the first part of the problem.
"The population of California is __________ more than the population of Wyoming."
This is a statement of subtraction, because it's not asking how many TIMES more. So, we subtract Wyoming's population from California's population.
[tex]38,800,000 - 584,000 = 38,216,000.[/tex]
Putting that number into scientific notation is easy: move the decimal to the place in the number where there will only be one number in front of the decimal: 3.3216. How many number slots until you have only one number in front of the decimal? 7. So, we know that the power of 10 is going to be 7. So, the first part of the question answers to:
[tex]3.8216 * 10^{7} .[/tex]
Now for the second part.
"Alternatively, the population of California is _________ times the population of Wyoming."
This is a problem of division. The question is asking us to divide California's population by Wyoming's population.
[tex]\frac{38,800,000}{584,000} = 0.664383562 * 10^{2} .[/tex]
We need to have one number in front of the decimal point, so we move it behind the first 6, giving us 6.64. Because we did this, we need to bump the exponent from 2 to 1, leaving us with:
[tex]6.64 * 10^{1}.[/tex]
So, the answer to the question is:
1. [tex]3.8216 * 10^{7}.[/tex]
2. [tex]6.64 * 10^{1}.[/tex]
Hope this helped you, and I hope you get a perfect score!! :)
Answer:
The population of California is ( 3.8216 x 10⁶ ) more than the population of Wyoming.
Alternatively, the population of California is ( 6.64 x 10¹ ) times the population of Wyoming.

question 1: What is the coefficient of the third term of the trinomial? (In other words, what is C?)
(2x + 3)(4x − 1) = 8x^2 +10x − C
Question 2: What is the coefficient of the second term of the polynomial? (In other words, what is B?)
(x + 2)(2x^2 + x − 1) = 2x^3 + Bx^2 + x − 2
question 3: What is the coefficient of the third term of the polynomial? (In other words, what is C?)
(x + 2)(x^2 −3x − 2) = x^3 −x^2 −Cx − 4
The value of C is -3 and the value of B is 5
ExpansionGiven the expression
(2x + 3)(4x − 1)
On expansion, ww will have:
(2x + 3)(4x − 1) = 8x^2 - 2x + 12x - 3
(2x + 3)(4x − 1) = 8x^2 + 10x - 3
Hence the value of C is -3
For the expression (x + 2)(2x^2 + x − 1)
Expnd
(x + 2)(2x^2 + x − 1) = 2x^3 + x^2 - x + 4x^2 + 2x - 2
(x + 2)(2x^2 + x − 1) = 2x^3+ 5x^2 +x - 2
Hence the value of B is 5

Josh has 4 boxes of candy to share with his 20 classmates. If each classmate receives the same amount of candy, how much candy should each classmate get? Your answer
Answer:
1/5 of a box of candy
Step-by-step explanation:
Because John has 4 boxes of candy, he needs to divide this by his 20 classmates. So we have 4/20, which reduces to 1/5. So each classmate would get 1/5 of a box of candy (assuming that Josh himself does not get any candy).

Fixed number of trials.
Independent trials.
Each trial can be reduced to a yes/no proposition.
Rolling a single "loaded die 19 times, keeping track of the numbers that are rolled.
There are six possible outcomes(1,2,3,4,5,6), so cannot be reduced to a yes/no proposition, and the answer is given by option b.

A study showed that 25% of the students drive themselves to school. Based on the suggested probability, in a class of 18 students, what would be the probability that at least 6 students drive themselves to school? (CDF)
A) 0.139
B) 0.283
C) 0.717
D) 0.861
Answer:
B) 0.283
Step-by-step explanation:
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
25% of the students drive themselves to school.
This means that [tex]p = 0.25[/tex]
Class of 18 students
This means that [tex]n = 18[/tex]
What would be the probability that at least 6 students drive themselves to school?
This is
[tex]P(X \geq 6) = 1 - P(X < 6)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X < 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5)[/tex]
So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{15,0}.(0.25)^{0}.(0.75)^{18} = 0.006[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{15,1}.(0.25)^{1}.(0.75)^{17} = 0.034[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{15,2}.(0.25)^{2}.(0.75)^{16} = 0.096[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{15,3}.(0.25)^{3}.(0.75)^{15} = 0.17[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 4) = C_{15,4}.(0.25)^{4}.(0.75)^{14} = 0.213[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{15,5}.(0.25)^{5}.(0.75)^{13} = 0.199[/tex]
[tex]P(X < 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) = 0.006 + 0.034 + 0.096 + 0.17 + 0.213 + 0.199 = 0.718[/tex]
[tex]P(X \geq 6) = 1 - P(X < 6) = 1 - 0.718 = 0.282[/tex]
