In a geometric sequence, a2=2, a3=16, and a4=128.

Which equation can be used to find the nth term of the sequence, an?


an=8⋅2n−1

an=2n−1

an=14⋅8n−1

an=2⋅14n−1

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

an = 1/4(8)^n-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following in a geometric sequence, a2=2, a3=16, and a4=128.

nth term of a sequence = ar^n-1

a is the first term

r is the common ratio

r = a3/a2 = a4/a3

r = 16/2 = 128/16

r = 8

a2 = ar

2 = 8a

a = 2/8

a = 1/4

The nth term by substituting the parameters will be;

an = 1/4(8)^n-1

Which of the following point-slope form equations could be produced with the points (4, 5) and (-3, -5)?

Answers

Given:

The two points are (4,5) and (-3,-5).

To find:

The point-slope form equations could be produced with the given points.

Solution:

Slope formula:

[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

The two points are (4,5) and (-3,-5). So, the slope of the line is:

[tex]m=\dfrac{-5-5}{-3-4}[/tex]

[tex]m=\dfrac{-10}{-7}[/tex]

[tex]m=\dfrac{10}{7}[/tex]

The point slope form of a line is:

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Where, m is the slope of the line.

The slope of the line is [tex]m=\dfrac{10}{7}[/tex] is passes through the point (4,5). So, the point slope form is:

[tex]y-5=\dfrac{10}{7}(x-4)[/tex]

The slope of the line is [tex]m=\dfrac{10}{7}[/tex] is passes through the point (-3,-5). So, the point slope form is:

[tex]y-(-5)=\dfrac{10}{7}(x-(-3))[/tex]

[tex]y+5=\dfrac{10}{7}(x+3)[/tex]

Therefore, the point slope form of the given line is either [tex]y-5=\dfrac{10}{7}(x-4)[/tex] or [tex]y+5=\dfrac{10}{7}(x+3)[/tex].

An administrator at a local high school wants to investigate whether there is an association between the grade level of a student (either ninth, tenth, eleventh, or twelfth) and how the student commutes to school (either walks, bikes, takes the bus, receives a ride, or drives). After a chi-square test for association was conducted, the results indicated that the chi-square test statistic was 14.63 with a p-value of 0.2623. Which of the following is the correct interpretation of the p-value in the context of the test?

a. There is a 26.23 percent chance that grade level and how a student commutes to school are independent.
b. There is a 26.23 percent chance that there is no association between grade level and how a student commutes to school.
c. Assuming there is no association between a student's grade level and how the student commutes to school, there is a 26.23 percent chance of finding a test statistic that is 14.63 or larger.
d. Assuming that a student's grade level and the way the student commutes to school are dependent, there is a 26.23 percent chance of finding a test statistic that is 14.63 or larger.
e. Assuming that a student's grade level and the way the student commutes to school are dependent, there is a 26.23 percent chance of finding a test statistic that is 14.63 or smaller.

Answers

Answer:

c.

Step-by-step explanation:

The following is how the p-value should be interpreted:

The probability of getting the test statistics value at least as intense as it might have been acquired during the test, assuming the null hypothesis is true, is considered as the p-value.

Null hypothesis

[tex]\mathbf{H_o :}[/tex] A student's grade level has no bearing or association on how they commute to school.

Alternative hypothesis;

[tex]\mathbf{H_1: }[/tex] There is a link between a student's grade level and the way they get to school.

The test statistic's value is 14.63, and the p-value is 0.2636.

As a result, the p-value is interpreted as that of option c in the question.

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation: Because the p value is less than 0.05 you know that your null hypothesis can be rejected and thus your alternative can have significant evidence to be proven. Thus you can eliminate answer choices B, and E. A and B can be rejected because your p value from your chi square test is telling you the likelihood of your chi square falling in a certain category of the graph.

Use the diagram to find the following bearings.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (a) 15°

  (b) 256°

  (c) 133°

  (d) 313°

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume your bearings are to be reported as an angle measured clockwise from north.

A) The given angle is the bearing: 15°.

__

B) The bearing can be found by subtracting this angle from 450°:

  450° -194° = 256°

__

C) The bearing can be found by adding 90° to the angle shown:

  43° +90° = 133°

__

D) The reverse bearing can be found by adding 180°:

  133° +180° = 313°

_____

Additional comment

Angles in Cartesian coordinates are conventionally measured counterclockwise from the +x axis. In that sense, the angle of C could be considered to be -43°.

Bearing angles are reported different ways. One of them is as an angle in the range 0–360°, measured clockwise from north (up, or +y axis). As such, it can be found by subtracting the conventional Cartesian angle from 90°.

When the Cartesian angle is more than 90°, 360° must be added to the difference to bring it back into the desired 0–360° range. Essentially, angles greater than 90° must be subtracted from 90° +360° = 450°.

Reverse bearings are found by adding or subtracting 180°.

__

An alternate convention for reporting bearings is as an angle in the range 0–90° east or west from north or south. In this convention, A = N15E, B=S76W, and C=S47E.

Occasionally, you will see the angles B and C reported from east or west: B=W14S; C=E43S. This keeps the angles in the 0–45° range. This is NOT a recommended way to report bearings.

Reverse bearings are found by swapping N/S and E/W. That is, the bearing from A to O is S15W, for example.

The two numbers are 3 and 8.

What are squares of a number?

Square numbers are numbers that can be multiplied by themselves.

Given that, The sum of the squares of two positive numbers is 73 and the difference of the squares of the numbers is 55.

Let the numbers be x and y, then,

x²+y² = 73

x²-y² = 55

On solving, we get,

x² = 9

x = 3

Putting x = 3 in first equation, we get

3²+y² = 73

y² = 64

y = 8

Hence, the required numbers are 3 and 8.

Jazmin takes a ride share service home from the airport. The ride share service charges $5 as an initial cost to pick her up, and $2.25 for every mile to her final destination. Jazmin's ride home cost a total of $38.75.


Write an equation to represent the situation. Let m represent the number of miles to her home. Do not use any spaces or extra symbols.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]5+2.25m=38.75[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]m[/tex] represent the number of miles to Jazmin's home.

Initial cost to pick Jazmin [tex]=\$5[/tex]

Cost per mile [tex]=\$2.25[/tex]

Therefore,

Cost for [tex]m[/tex] miles [tex]=\$2.25m[/tex]

Total cost of Jazmin's ride = Initial cost to pick Jazmin + Cost for [tex]m[/tex] miles

                                            = [tex]5+2.25m[/tex]

Also, total cost incurred [tex]=\$38.75[/tex]

So, equation that represent the above situation is [tex]5+2.25m=38.75[/tex]

en un velocímetro se registra una velocidad de 8.5 m/seg ¿cual sería la velocidad en km/hr?​

Answers

Answer:

x = 30.6 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Dados los siguientes datos;

Velocidad = 8.5 m/s

Para convertirlo a km /hr;

1 m/s = 3.6 km/hora

8.5 m/s = x km/hora

Multiplicación cruzada, tenemos;

x = 8.5 * 3.6

x = 30.6 km/hora
