Mosquito = 2.5 x 10⁻⁶

Housefly = 2 x 10⁻⁵

Let's find their ratio: Mosquito/Housefly = (2.5x10⁻⁶)/(2 x 10⁻⁵)

M/H =(2.5/2) x (10⁻⁶/10⁻⁵)
M/H = (5/4) x (10⁽⁻⁶⁺⁵⁾
M/H = (5/4) x 10⁻¹
M/H = (5/4) x (1/10)
M/H = 5/40
M/H = 1/8 OR 8 M = 1 H , SO the housefly is 8 times the weight of the mosquito

Write down the nth term of the sequence 5, 8, 13, 20, 29

amid [387]

Hello! To find any number in the arithmetic sequence we can use a formula!

It is given by $a_n =a_1+(n-1)d$

The geometric sequence formula goes by $S_n = \frac{a_1(1-r^n)}{1-r}$

So for this we notice that there's a start of 5 and is being added 3 to get 8.

and then each time it is added by 2 more to get the next time

5
5+ 3 = 8
8 + 5 = 13
13 + 7 = 20
20 + 9 = 29
29 + 11 = 41
41 + 13 = 54
54 + 15 = 69
69 + 17 = 83

Your formula is $a_n = (n-1)^2 + 4

$
Where n starts at 2 not 1

The number of flaws per square yard in a type of carpet material varies with mean 1.4 flaws per square yard and standard deviati

oksian1 [2.3K]

According to the Central Limit Theorem, the distribution of the sample means is approximately normal, with the mean equal to the population mean (1.4 flaws per square yard) and standard deviation given by:
$\frac{\sigma}{ \sqrt{n} }=\frac{1.2}{ \sqrt{178} }=0.09$
The z-score for 1.5 flaws per square yard is:
$z=\frac{1.5-1.4}{0.09}=1.11$
The cumulative probability for a z-score of 1.11 is 0.8665. Therefore the probability that the mean number of flaws exceeds 1.5 per square yard is
1 - 0.8665 = 0.1335.

Identify the variable that is continuous data used discretely. Select all that apply. There are 3 bugs. The bugs are red, yellow

Nata [24]

Answer:

The age of each bug

Step-by-step explanation:

Discrete variables are variables which are counted and can only take on whole number values such as 1, 2, 3...,. For example, the number of students in a class; the number of legs of a spider.

Continuous variables are variables that are measured and can take on a whole range of values such as 1.0, 1.1, 1.2...,. For example, the wingspan of a bug, the length of leaves; the exact age of students in a class.

Though age is a continuous variable if the exact age is required as it can take up a wide range of values such as 2.5 years; 2.3 years, 5.8 days etc,. However, in some instances, it can be rounded up to whole number values in years, months, weeks or even days.

For example, the age of a bug in days could be 1 day, 2 days, or 14 days.

The age of a student who is 12.2 years can be given as 12 years.

Graph (-4, 5), (2, 3), (-3.0), (-4. -5). (-5. 2), and (-5,3) and connect the points to form a polygon. How many sides does the p

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

I think the sides of polygon are 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Because to form a polygon we need to the first to form a horizontal and vertical line,to find the number in that line,and join the line based on the numbers given, then you will get a polygon with 6 side
