Write an explicit formula for the sequence -13,-6,1,8

Mathematics
1 answer:
vladimir2022 [97]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

\large\boxed{a_n=7n-20}

Step-by-step explanation:

It's an arithmetic sequence.

-6-(-13)=-6+13=7\\1-(-6)=1+6=7\\8-1=7

The difference is constant.

The explicit formula of an arihmetic sequence:

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

Substitute:

a_1=-13,\ d=7

a_n=-13+(n-1)(7)                <em>use distributive property</em>

a_n=-13+7n-7\\\\a_n=7n+(-13-7)\\\\a_n=7n-20

What polynomial has a graph that passes through the given points?
Evgen [1.6K]
The answer is <span>B. y = x^3 + 4x^2 + 2x - 2 

A line that passes through all given point is the correct choice. Now, substitute x and y in all of the choices:

</span>B. y = x³ + 4x²<span> + 2x - 2 
Point 1: </span><span>(-2, 2) 
x = -2
y = 2
____
2 = (-2)</span>³ + 4 *(-2)² + 2 * (-2) - 2
2 = -8 + 4 * 4 + (-4) - 2
2 = -8 + 16 - 4 - 2
2 = 2
_____

Point 2: (-1, -1) 
x = -1
y = -1
____
-1 = (-1)³ + 4 *(-1)² + 2 * (-1) - 2
-1 = -1 + 4 * 1 + (-2) - 2
-1 = -1 + 4 - 2 - 2 
-1 = -1
____

Point 3: (1, 5) 
x = 1
y = 5
____
5 = (1)³ + 4 *(1)² + 2 * 1 - 2
5 = 1 + 4 * 1 + 2 - 2
5 = 1 + 4 + 2 - 2
5 = 5
____

Point 4: (3, 67) 
x = 3
y = 67
____
67 = (3)³ + 4 *(3)² + 2 * (3) - 2
67 = 27 + 4 * 9 + 6 - 2
67 = 27 + 36 + 6 - 2
67 = 67

So, line B passes through all choices.

Katyanochek1 [597]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

In a survey, 55% of the voters support a particular referendum. If 40 voters are chosen at random,

find the mean and variance for the number of voters who support the referendum.

Answer:

a) The Mean is 22

b) Variance is 9.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

55% of the voters support a particular referendum p = 0.55

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.55 = 0.45

sample size n = 40

a)

Mean = sample size n × p

Mean = 40 × 0.55

Mean = 22

Therefore the Mean is 22

b)

Variance = n × p × q

so we substitute

Variance = 40 × 0.55 × 0.45

Variance = 9.9

Therefore the Variance is 9.9

tina bought three pairs of jeans and three sweaters that were on sale she paid a total of 105.69 if the jeans were 26.93 how muc
OLga [1]

Answer:

Each sweater costs $8.30

Step-by-step explanation:

j = jeans

s = sweater

3j + 3s = 105.69

3(26.93) + 3s = 105.69

80.79 + 3s = 105.69

-80.79          -80.79

3s = 24.9

/3   /3

s = 8.3 ($8.30)

Check:

3j + 3s = 105.69

3(26.93) + 3(8.3) = 105.69

80.79 + 24.9 = 105.69

105.69 = 105.69

Hope this helps!
