Answers
Explanation:
To find the n term always replace n in the given equation with the term u need
Example:f(n) =2 . 6^(n-1)
Replace n =1 to find the first term
That will be f(1) = 2 . 6^(1-1) = 2 . 6^(0)
( as any number with power 0 is always 1) = 2 . 1= 2
Do the same for 2nd term by replacing n with 2 n so on

Complete Question:
Identify the type of sampling used (random, systematic, convenience, stratified, or cluster sampling) in the situation described below;
A researcher selects every 890th social security number and surveys the corresponding person. Which type of sampling did the researcher use?
Answer:
Systematic sampling.
Step-by-step explanation:
In Statistics, sampling can be defined as a process used to collect or select data (objects, observations, or individuals) from a larger statistical population using specific procedures.
There are various types of sampling used by researchers and these are;
1. Random sampling.
2. Convenience sampling.
3. Stratified sampling.
4. Cluster sampling.
5. Systematic sampling.
A systematic sampling is a type of probability sampling method which involves the researcher selecting or collecting data from a larger population.
Under systematic sampling method, samples are selected from an ordered (fixed) sample population at periodic interval. Therefore, numbers are assigned to every member of the population and then, the "nth" member are selected by the researcher after choosing a fixed starting point.
In this scenario, the researcher selects every 890th social security number and surveys the corresponding person.
Hence, the type of sampling used by the researcher is systematic sampling.
A rope that is 245 cm long is cut into three pieces. The ratio of the lengths of the first piece to the second piece is 2:3, and the ratio of the lengths of the second piece to the third piece is 4:5. What is the length of the longest of the three pieces?
Answers
Answer:
The length of longest piece is 105 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Rope is 245 cm long.
Ratio of lengths of first to second piece = 2:3.
Ratio of lengths of second to third piece = 4:5.
To find:
Length of longest piece = ?
Solution:
We are given the ratio of first and second pieces AND
ratio of second and third pieces.
Common link is second piece.
We need to make the ratio of second piece equal in both the ratio to find the ratio of all three pieces.
2:3
4:5
Multiply 1st ratio by 4 and 2nd ratio by 3:
Now, the ratio becomes:
8:12 and 12:15
And the ratio of three pieces can be represented as:
8: 12: 15, this ratio is the first piece: second piece: third piece
[tex]\Rightarrow 8x+12x+15x = 245\\\Rightarrow 35x = 245\\\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{245}{35}\\\Rightarrow x = 7[/tex]
So, the pieces lengths will be
First piece = [tex]8 \times 7 = 56[/tex] cm
Second piece = [tex]12 \times 7 = 84[/tex] cm
Third piece = [tex]15 \times 7 = 105[/tex] cm
So, the length of longest piece is 105 cm.

Identify which of these designs is most appropriate for the given experiment: completely randomized design, randomized blockdesign, or matched pairs design.
A drug is designed to treat insomnia. In a clinical trial of the drug, amounts of sleep each night are measured before and after subjects have been treated with the drug.
The most appropriate is (randomized block, matched pairs, completly randomized) design.
Answers
Answer:
Matched pairs design
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at the options;
-It's not a completely randomized design because a randomized design will assign all individuals to a group which in this case it doesn't.
- It's not a randomized block design because randomized block design will group the subjects in question into 2 or more blocks which have a common characteristic and will then randomly assign subjects in each of the blocks.
-It's a matched pair because every individual/subject undergoes measurements both before and after being treated with the drugs.
Thus, the correct option is matched pairs design.

Answer:
You just need to demonstrate that the expression is not equivalent. To do that, we just need to evaluate the expression with a specific number.
[tex]\frac{3}{8}x+2 \neq \frac{3}{2}x+5[/tex]
For [tex]x=0[/tex], we have
[tex]\frac{3}{8}(0)+2 \neq \frac{3}{2}(0)+5\\2 \neq 5[/tex]
Notice that the answer is true because 2 is not equivalent to 5.
Therefore, the expression is actually non-equivalent.

Answers
Answer:
4a) 110 square centimetres
4b) 127 square centimetres
6) 292 square centimetres
8) 800 tiles
Step-by-step explanation:
4. We need to find the area of the large rectangle and then deduct the area of the unshaded part:
a) The large rectangle has dimensions 12 cm by 15 cm. Its area is:
A = 12 * 15 = 180 square centimetres
The unshaded part has a length of 15 - (3 + 2) cm i.e. 10 cm and a width of 7 cm. Its area is:
a = 10 * 7 = 70 square centimetres
Therefore, the area of the shaded part is:
A - a = 180 - 70 = 110 square centimetres
b) The large rectangle has dimensions 13 cm by 11 cm. Its area is:
A = 13 * 11 = 143 square centimetres
The unshaded part has dimensions 8 cm by 2 cm. Its area is:
a = 8 * 2 = 16 square centimetres
Therefore, the area of the shaded part is:
A - a = 143 - 16 = 127 square centimetres
6. The background area of the space not covered by the photograph is the area of the frame minus the area of the photograph.
The frame has dimensions 24 cm by 18 cm. Therefore, its area is:
A = 24 * 18 = 432 square centimetres
The photograph has dimensions 14 cm by 10 cm. Therefore, its area is:
a = 14 * 10 = 140 square centimetres
Therefore, the background area of the space not covered by the photograph is:
A - a = 432 - 140 = 292 square centimetres
8) The floor has dimensions 8 m by 4 m. The area of the floor is:
A = 8 * 4 = 32 square centimetres
Each square tile has dimensions 20 cm by 20 cm. In metres, that is 0.2 m by 0.2 m. The area of each tile is:
a = 0.2 * 0.2 = 0.04 square metres
The number of tiles that are needed is the area of the floor divided by the area of each tile:
A / a = 32 / 0.04 = 800 tiles

Construct a 99% confidthence interval for the population mean .Assume the population has a normal distribution. A group of 19 randomly selected employees has a mean age of 22.4 years with a standard deviation of 3.8 years. Round to the nearest tenth.
A) Determine the critical value ta/2 with n-the 1 degrees of freedom
B) Determine the lower and upper bound of the confidence interval
C) Interpret the confidence interval.
Answers
Confidence interval for mean, when population standard deviation is unknown:
[tex]\overline{x}\pm t_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
, where [tex]\overline{x}[/tex] = sample mean
n= sample size
s= sample standard deviation
[tex]t_{\alpha/2}[/tex] = Critical t-value for n-1 degrees of freedom
We assume the population has a normal distribution.
Given, n= 19 , s= 3.8 , [tex]\overline{x}=22.4[/tex]
[tex]\alpha=1-0.99=0.01[/tex]
A) Critical t value for [tex]\alpha/2=0.005[/tex] and degree of 18 freedom
[tex]t_{\alpha/2}[/tex] = 2.8784
B) Required confidence interval:
[tex]22.4\pm ( 2.8744)\dfrac{3.8}{\sqrt{19}}\\\\=22.4\pm2.5058\\\\=(22.4-2.5058,\ 22.4+2.5058)=(19.8942,\ 24.9058)\approx(19.9,\ 24.9)[/tex]
Lower bound = 19.9 years
Uppen bound = 24.9 years
C) Interpretation: We are 99% confident that the true population mean of lies in (19.9, 24.9) .
Three triangles have sides of lengths 3, 4, and 5. Their respective perimeters are 6, 8 and 10. The triangles are similar to each other.
True or false
Answers
Answer:
'll tell you where the problem lies - it is IMPOSSIBLE to form triangles like this.
If the perimeter of the smallest triangle is 6 and one side is 3, then the sum of the other two sides can only be 6 - 3 = 3
One property to enable you to form a triangle is that NO ONE SIDE can be greater or equal to the sum of the other two sides. In the smallest triangle 1 side of length 3 equals the other two sides.
In the middle triangle one side of length "4" equals the sum of the other two sides and
In the large triangle one side of length "5" equals the other two sides.
Therefore when I say "triangle" above I am not actually correct because it is IMPOSSIBLE to form triangles with those dimensions of 1 side and with those perimeters

Set of six numbers has an average of 42. When three of this numbers were removed the remaining three numbers had an average of 72. What was the sum of the removed numbers?
Answers
Answer: 36
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that six numbers has an average of 42. This means that the total number will be equal to:
= 42 × 6

When three of this numbers were removed the remaining three numbers had an average of 72. The total of this will be:
= 72 × 3
= 216
The sum of the removed numbers will be the difference between the two numbers above. This will be:
= 252 - 216
= 36

The trajectory of a golf ball in a chip from the rough has a parabolic pattern. The height, in feet, of the ball is given by the equation h(x)=−.25x2+4.3x, where x is the number of feet away from the golf club (along the ground) the ball is.
1) The ball starts (blank/answer) feet above the ground.
2)The ball reaches a maximum height of (Blank/answer) feet at a horizontal distance of (blank/answer) feet away from the golf club it was hit with.
3)The ball returns to the ground at about (blank/answer) feet away.
Answers
Answer:
1.) Zero ( 0 )
2.) 55.47 feet , 8.6 feet
3.) 17.2 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The height, in feet, of the ball is given by the equation h(x)=−.25x2+4.3x, where x is the number of feet away from the golf club (along the ground) the ball is.
1.) Since the equation has no intercept,
The ball will start zero feet above the ground.
2.) The distance of the ball at the maximum height will be achieved by using the formula
X = -b/2a
Where b = 4.3, a = -0.25
Substitutes both into the formula
X = -4.3 / 2( - 0.25 )
X = - 4.3 / - 0.5
X = 8.6 feet
Substitute X into the function to get the maximum height
h(x) = −.25(8.6)^2 + 4.3(8.6)
h(x) = 18.49 + 36.98
h(x) = 55.47 feet
3) As the ball returns to the ground, the height will be equal to zero, therefore,
0 = -0.25x^2 + 4.3x
0.25x^2 = 4.3x
X = 4.3/0.25
X = 17.2 feet
The ball returns to the ground at about 17.2 feet away
