Which sequence is modeled by the graph below?

1 answer:

5 0

First, we inspect what type of sequence is the order of the coordinates:
a2 = 1
a3 = 2
a4 = 4

Getting the difference,
a3 - a2 = 1
a4 - a3 = 2

The differences are not equal; hence, the sequence is not arithmetic.

Getting the ratio:
a3/a2 = 2
a4/a3 = 2

The common ratio is 2. Using the general form for a geometric series:
an = a1 r^(n-1)
If n = 2
1 = a1 (2)^(2-1)
a1 = 1/2

So,
an = (1/2) (2)^(n-1)

The answer is the first option.

A 20 cm long thin wire is used to form a square. What is the area of the square?

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

25cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A square has 4 equal sides so each side will be 20/4 = 5cm

Easily calculate the area by taking 5 x 5 = 25cm^2

Your neighbor has a bag with 5 oranges and 7 apples in it. You will be receiving two pieces of fruit from your neighbor. What is

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

31.82% probability that you will receive 2 apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

The fruits are removed from the bag, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x sucesses is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

In which:

x is the number of sucesses.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

In this question:

5 + 7 = 12 total fruits, which means that $N = 12$

7 apples, which means that $k = 7$

You receive 2 fruits, which means that $n = 2$

What is the probability, in percent, that you will receive 2 apples, assuming she removes them from the bag in random order?

This is, as a proportion, P(X = 2). So

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

$P(X = 2) = h(2,12,2,7) = \frac{C_{7,2}*C_{5,0}}{C_{12,2}} = 0.3182$

0.3182*100% = 31.82%

31.82% probability that you will receive 2 apples.

You can walk 3 miles per hour, jog 5 miles per hour, or run 10 miles per hour. You go a full hour before changing pace. At the e

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

b. How many ways arc there to go 12 miles?

≡ p(12) = 25

c. How many ways arc there to go 20 miles?

≡ p(20) = 131

d. How many ways arc there to go 22 miles?

≡p(22) 199

Step-by-step explanation:

a) supposed you walked for the first hour. Then you would have travelled 3 miles. if you jogged you would have covered 5miles and if you run you would have covered 10miles. now you have to decide how to run the rest miles from the n miles.

Thus, the number of ways one can cover n miles will be given by the recurrence relation

p(n) = p( n-3) + p( n-5) + p( n - 10)

now to solve the rest of the question, let us make a table which provides the number of ways for n = 1 to 22.

check the attachment for the table

b. How many ways arc there to go 12 miles?

≡ p(12) = 25

c. How many ways arc there to go 20 miles?

≡ p(20) = 131

d. How many ways arc there to go 22 miles?

≡p(22) 199
