Answer:

The correct option is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence is called an arithmetic sequence if the difference between every two consecutive terms are same.

In sequence 1, 5, 8, 13, ...

d_1=a_2-a_1=5-1=4

d_2=a_3-a_2=8-5=3

Since d_1\neq d_2, therefore the sequence 1, 5, 8, 13, ... is not an arithmetic sequence.

In sequence 2, 4, 8, 32,...

d_1=a_2-a_1=4-2=2

d_2=a_3-a_2=8-4=4

Since d_1\neq d_2, therefore the sequence 2, 4, 8, 32,... is not an arithmetic sequence.

In sequence 25, 21, 17, 13, ...

d_1=a_2-a_1=21-25=-4

d_2=a_3-a_2=17-21=-4

d_3=a_4-a_3=13-17=-4

Since this sequence has common difference of -4 therefore the sequence 25, 21, 17, 13, ... is an arithmetic sequence.

In sequence 81, 27, 9, 3, ...

d_1=a_2-a_1=27-81=-54

d_2=a_3-a_2=9-27=-18

Since d_1\neq d_2, therefore the sequence 81, 27, 9, 3, ... is not an arithmetic sequence.

Hence the correct option is 3.

That would be    25,21,17,13...

this is arithmetic with a common difference of -4.

Step 1: d+3 &lt; 1 <br><br> Step 2: b+6&lt; 9
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

1) d < -2

2) b < 3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) d+3< 1

subtract both sides by 3

d+3 -3 < 1-3

d<-2

2) b+6< 9

subtract both sides by 6

b+6 -6 < 9 -6

b< 3

Find the mean and standard deviation for the set of data.
dem82 [27]

The mean and standard deviation for the set of data will be 16 and 5.87. Then the correct option is A.

<h3>What is a standard deviation?</h3>

It is the measure of the dispersion of statistical data. Dispersion is the extent to which the value is in a variation.

The set of data is given below.

16, 22, 8, 5, 20, 18, 14, 17, 24

The mean of the data set will be

μ = (16 + 22 + 8 + 5 + 20 + 18 + 14 + 17 + 24) / 9

μ = 144 / 9

μ = 16

Then the standard deviation of the data set will be

\rm \sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{\Sigma (x_i - \mu)^2}{n}} \\\sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{(16 - 16)^2 +(22 - 16)^2 + (8-16)^2 + ......+(24-16)^2  }{9}} \\\sigma = \sqrt{\dfrac{310}{9}}\\

Simplify the expression further, then we have

σ = √34.44

σ = 5.87

The mean and standard deviation for the set of data will be 16 and 5.87.

Then the correct option is A.
