Answer:

Geometric sequences are below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

First one is 2/5, 2/10, 2/20, 2/40

2/10 = 2/5 * 1/2 ; 2/20 = 2/10 * 1/2

This is geometric with common ratio 1/2.

Second is 11/12, 8/12, 5/12, 2/12

This is not geometric It is arithmetic with common difference -3/12.

25, 19, 13, 7.... is arithmetic with d = -6

4, 12, 36, 108

12 = 3*4, 36 = 3*12 and so on

This is geometric with r = 3.

-5, 5, -5, 5,...

Each term is obtained from the prievious by multiplying by - 1. S

this is geometric with r = -1.

-3, 0, 3, 6 is arithmetic with d = 3.

-8, -2, 1/2, 1/8

This is not geometric as there is no common ratio.

Liula [17]

Answer: 0.99822

Step-by-step explanation:

Our inter-arrival time follows Poisson distribution with parameter 14 which is in hour so first we have to calculate this in minutes as we have to calculate probability in minutes.

So converting 14 into minutes will give $\frac{14}{60}$ =0.233

Let X=inter-arrival time between two customers

and here $\lambda$ = 0.233

Probability(X is less than or equal to 2 minutes) = P(X=0) + P(X=1) + P(X=2)

Now the Poisson distribution has PDF = $\frac{\exp ^{-\lambda }\times \lambda ^{X}}{X!}$

So P(X = 0) = $\frac{\exp ^{-0.233}\times 0.233^{0}}{0!}$ = 0.79215

P(X= 1) = $\frac{\exp ^{-0.233}\times 0.233^{1}}{1!}$ = 0.18457

P(X=2) = $\frac{\exp ^{-0.233}\times 0.233^{2}}{2!}$ = 0.02150

Now adding all three probability gives = 0.79215 +0.18457 + 0.02150=0.99822

Find the missing side 13 ft 5 ft x

Scilla [17]

Answer:

Assuming you're referring to the sides of a right triangle, the missing side X would be 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem states that the two legs of a right triangle squared and added together is equal to the hypotenuse squared. $13^{2}$ is 169, $5^{2}$ is 25, 169 - 25 = 144. Take the square root of 144 and you'll get 12, which is the missing side of the right triangle.

HELP ASAP. Teacher didnt teach us this.

mina [271]

Answer:

A = 624

B = 14.76 or 14.8 or 15inches

Standard form in polynomial for Area = 26 x 24 = .624in^2.....

2(5 + 8) x 2( 5 + 7)

26 x 24 = 624 in^2

This is because the rectangle width indifference is 1/10th of the length measuring 2inches more, then we see both sides of the frame are equal to 2inches and match this measure for x = 2inches both width and length. We add 4 to each side 22 x 20 + 4x^2 we separate 4x^2 into 4x both sides, this has become 26 x 24 = 624in^2

as 4 was added each side.

Question 2.

We find the width is shown left to right in rectangles, they are the sides.

So Area 4 x 24 = 96in^2

or 6.5 of the 24 = 24/6.5 = 3.69 inches

26 /6.5 = scale of 6.5: 26 = 4 inches

Therefore Area = 3.69 x 4 = 14.76

if it was square frame it would be 16inches

Go for 14.76in^2 as ithe question says 4 inches and it becomes, a replaced width only and it must be still to scale as shown above with 24/6.5 = 3.69 so 3,69 x 4 = 14.76. Last resort would be that the length as kept at 24 x 4 = 96 and in this response it does exactly what the question asks the width changes only.
