The sequence an=an−1+2 is an arithmetic sequence

The first three terms in the sequence are (a) 8, 10, 12

<h3>How to determine the first three terms?</h3>

The sequence is given as:

an=an−1+2

Where:

a1 =8

Start by calculating a2 using:

a2=a1+2

This gives

a2=8+2 = 10

Calculate a3 using:

a3=a2+2

This gives

a3=10+2 = 12

So, we have:

a1 = 8, a2 = 10 and a3 = 12

Hence, the first three terms in the sequence are (a) 8, 10, 12

What's the answer for this question? (The numbers after the letters are indexes btw) 27a9 x 18b5 x 4c2 Over 18a4 x 12b2 x 2c

zysi [14]

Answer:

$\frac{27a^9 * 18b^5 * 4c^2 }{18a^4 * 12b^2 * 2c} = \frac{9}{2}a^5b^3c$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{27a^9 * 18b^5 * 4c^2 }{18a^4 * 12b^2 * 2c}$

Required

Simplify

$\frac{27a^9 * 18b^5 * 4c^2 }{18a^4 * 12b^2 * 2c}$

Cancel out 18

$\frac{27a^9 * b^5 * 4c^2 }{a^4 * 12b^2 * 2c}$

Divide 4 and 2

$\frac{27a^9 * b^5 * 2c^2 }{a^4 * 12b^2 *c}$

Divide 27 and 12 by 3

$\frac{9a^9 * b^5 * 2c^2 }{a^4 * 4b^2 *c}$

Apply law of indices

$\frac{9a^{9-4} * b^{5-2} * 2c^{2-1} }{4}$

$\frac{9a^5 * b^3 * 2c }{4}$

Divide 2 and 4

$\frac{9a^5 * b^3 * c}{2}$

$\frac{9a^5b^3c}{2}$

Rewrite as:

$\frac{9}{2}a^5b^3c$

Hence:

$\frac{27a^9 * 18b^5 * 4c^2 }{18a^4 * 12b^2 * 2c} = \frac{9}{2}a^5b^3c$

What is mean median mode range?

adoni [48]

Answer:

Mean- the average of data, meaning you add up all the numbers, and then divide the sum of the numbers by how many numbers there are. For example:

2, 2, 3, 4, 6, 6, 9.

7 numbers total.

2 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 6 + 6 + 9 = 32

32 ÷ 7 = 4.57

The mean would be 4.57.

Median- the middle point of the numbers. You cross off each of the numbers until you have one last number standing. If you have an even number of numbers, you find the middle of the last two numbers you crossed off. For example:

2, 2, 3, 4, 6, 6, 9

2, 3, 4, 6, 6

3, 4, 6

4 would be the median.

Mode- the largest number on the data.

Range- subtract the mode (largest number) from the smallest number to get range. For example:

2, 2, 3, 4, 6, 6, 9

9 - 2 = 7

7 would be the range.

A company administers an "aptitude test for managers" to aid in selecting new management trainees. Prior experience suggests tha

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

0.94

Step-by-step explanation:

The question after this basically is:

<em>"If the applicant passes the "aptitude test for managers", what is the probability that the applicant will succeed in the management position?"</em>

<em />

So,

P(successful if hired) = 60% = 0.6 [let it be P(x)]

P(success at passing the test) = 85% = 0.85 [let it be P(y)]

P(successful and pass the test) = P(x) + P(y) -[P(x)*P(y)]

So,

P(successful and pass the test) = 0.6 + 0.85 - (0.6*0.85) = 0.94 (94%)
