Answer:

r = - \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The common ratio r of a geometric sequence is

r = \frac{a_{2} }{a_{1} } = \frac{a_{3} }{a_{2} } = .....

Hence

r = \frac{-52}{104} = \frac{26}{-52} = - \frac{1}{2}

Mason and Laney run laps. The ratio of the number of laps Mason ran to the number Laney ran was 2:3.
3241004551 [841]

Using proportions, it is found that Mason ran 620 meters.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

Considering the ratio, the <em>rule of three</em> is given as follows:

2 laps for Mason - 3 laps for Laney.

n meters for Mason - 930 meters for Mason.

Applying cross multiplication:

3n = 930 x 2

n = 930 x 2/3

n = 620

Mason ran 620 meters.

AysviL [449]

Answer:

<h3>RO = 107.36</h3>

<u>Step</u>-<u>by</u>-<u>step</u> <u>explanation</u>:

ΔLMN = ΔOPR ----- (<em>given</em>)

<h3>so,-----------------------</h3>

NM / NL = RP / RO

19 / 34 = 60 / RO

RO = 60 × 34 ÷ 19

RO = 107.36

A resident of Bayport claims to the City Council that the proportion of Westside residents
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

The test statistics is  z =  -1.56  

The p-value is   p-value =  0.05938

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told  

   The West side sample  size is n_1  =  578

    The  number of residents on the West side with income below poverty level is k  = 76

    The East side sample size  n_2=688

  The  number of residents on the East side with income below poverty level is u  = 112

   The null hypothesis is  H_o  :  p_1 = p_2

    The alternative hypothesis is  H_a :  p_1 <  p_2

Generally the sample proportion of  West side is  

     \^{p} _1 = \frac{k}{n_1}

=>   \^{p} _1 = \frac{76}{578}

=>   \^{p} _1 =  0.1315

Generally the sample proportion of  West side is  

     \^{p} _2 = \frac{u}{n_2}

=>   \^{p} _2 = \frac{112}{688}

=>   \^{p} _2 =  0.1628

 Generally the pooled sample proportion is mathematically represented as

    p = \frac{k + u}{ n_1 + n_2 }

=>  p = \frac{76 + 112}{ 578 + 688 }

=>  p =0.1485

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

z = \frac{\^ {p}_1 - \^{p}_2}{\sqrt{p(1- p) [\frac{1}{n_1 } + \frac{1}{n_2}  ]}  }

=> z = \frac{ 0.1315  - 0.1628 }{\sqrt{0.1485(1-0.1485) [\frac{1}{578} + \frac{1}{688}  ]}  }  

=> z =  -1.56  

Generally the p-value  is mathematically represented as

          p-value =  P(z <  -1.56 )

From z-table  

         P(z <  -1.56 ) =  0.05938

So

     p-value =  0.05938
