Answer: The first 6 terms are = 8, 10, 12,14,16,18
Step-by-step explanation:
The NTH term of an Arithmetic Sequence is given as
an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d
where a1 = First term given as 8 and
d= common difference given as 2
Therefore We have that
the first term
an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d = 8+(1-1) 2
a1= 8
second term=
an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a2= 8 + (2-1) 2
= 8+ 2(1) = 10
3rd term
an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a3= 8 + (3-1) 2
= 8+ 2(2)= 8 + 4=12
4th term
an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a4= 8 + (4-1) 2
= 8+ 2(3)= 8+6=14
5th term
an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a5= 8 + (5-1) 2
= 8+ 2(4)=8+ 8=16
6th term
an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a6= 8 + (6-1) 2
= 8+ 2(5)=8 +10 =18
Solution
For this case we can do the following:
11y - 3x = 18
16y -3x = 33
We can multiply the first equation by -1 and we got:
-11y +3x =-18
16y -3x = 33
_______________
16y -11y = 33-18
5y = 15
y= 15/5 = 3
And then solving for x we got
x = -(18 -11*3)/ 3= -15/3 = 5
Answer:
d = log 38/log31
d = 1.06
Step-by-step explanation:
31 ^ d = 38
Take log of both sides since the exponential equation have different base (always)
d log 31 = log 38
d = log 38 / log 31
d = 1.58 / 1.491
d = 1.06.
We can actually check to see if this is correct.
Substituting d = 1.06
31^ 1.06 = 38.092
(You see, that's approximately correct)

Answer:
a)0.6192
b)0.7422
c)0.8904
d)at least 151 sample is needed for 95% probability that sample mean falls within 8$ of the population mean.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let z(p) be the z-statistic of the probability that the mean price for a sample is within the margin of error. Then
z(p)=
where
- Me is the margin of error from the mean
- s is the standard deviation of the population
a.
z(p)=
≈ 0.8764
by looking z-table corresponding p value is 1-0.3808=0.6192
b.
z(p)=
≈ 1.1314
by looking z-table corresponding p value is 1-0.2578=0.7422
c.
z(p)=
≈ 1.6
by looking z-table corresponding p value is 1-0.1096=0.8904
d.
Minimum required sample size for 0.95 probability is
N≥
where
- z is the corresponding z-score in 95% probability (1.96)
- s is the standard deviation (50)
- ME is the margin of error (8)
then N≥
≈150.6
Thus at least 151 sample is needed for 95% probability that sample mean falls within 8$ of the population mean.
Answer:
3.6
Step-by-step explanation:
3z when z = 1.2
