Answer:

the common difference of the sequence (d) = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sequence is 1st term, 2nd term, 3rd term

= 5, 2, -1

It is an arithmetic sequence.

The common difference (d) = second term - first term

d = 2 - 5

d = -3

Therefore, the common difference of the sequence (d) = -3

Hope this will helpful.

Thank you.

The correct answer to this problem would be -3. Based on the points you've provided on the graph, -3 would be the correct common difference. :)

Dylan and his friend Lamar volunteered to bring sandwiches for lunch at a homeless shelter. They bought 8 loaves of bread. Each
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

64 slices

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to solving this is to find out how many slices of bread there were in total. We know that each loaf of bread had 16 slices, and we know that there were 8 loaves. To get the amount of slices, we multiply the amount of slices in each loaf by the number of loaves there are.

16⋅8=128 slices of bread in total

Now that we know the total number of slices, we need to find how many sandwiches they made. If they used two slices per sandwich, we would divided the total number of bread slices by two.

128÷2=64.

Katrina uses 4.125 yards of fabric for each curtain panel she makes how many yards will show me if she makes 14 panels
arlik [135]

Answer:

57.75 yards yard will she makes 14 panels.

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportion states that the two ratios or fractions are equal.

As per the statement: Katrina uses 4.125 yards of fabric for each curtain panel she makes.

To find the how many yard will she makes 14 panels.

By proportion definition,

\frac{4.125}{1} =\frac{x}{14}

By cross multiply we have;

4.125 \times 14 = x

Simplify:

x = 57.75 yards.

therefore, 57.75 yards yard will she makes 14 panels.

The resting heart rate for an adult horse should average about µ = 47 beats per minute with a (95% of data) range from 19 to 75
KatRina [158]

Answer:

a. 0.0582 = 5.82% probability that the heart rate is less than 25 beats per minute.

b. 0.1762 = 17.62% probability that the heart rate is greater than 60 beats per minute.

c. 0.7656 = 76.56% probability that the heart rate is between 25 and 60 beats per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Empirical Rule:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean:

\mu = 47

(95% of data) range from 19 to 75 beats per minute.

This means that between 19 and 75, by the Empirical Rule, there are 4 standard deviations. So

4\sigma = 75 - 19

4\sigma = 56

\sigma = \frac{56}{4} = 14

a. What is the probability that the heart rate is less than 25 beats per minute?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 25. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{25 - 47}{14}

Z = -1.57

Z = -1.57 has a p-value of 0.0582.

0.0582 = 5.82% probability that the heart rate is less than 25 beats per minute.

b. What is the probability that the heart rate is greater than 60 beats per minute?

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 60. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{60 - 47}{14}

Z = 0.93

Z = 0.93 has a p-value of 0.8238.

1 - 0.8238 = 0.1762

0.1762 = 17.62% probability that the heart rate is greater than 60 beats per minute.

c. What is the probability that the heart rate is between 25 and 60 beats per minute?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 60 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 25. From the previous two items, we have these two p-values. So

0.8238 - 0.0582 = 0.7656

0.7656 = 76.56% probability that the heart rate is between 25 and 60 beats per minute

-2(z+3)-z=-z-4(z+2)<br> solve for z quickly please! will give brainliest
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

\sf z = - \dfrac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for z:

\longrightarrow -2(z + 3) = -z - 4(z + 2)

-4(z + 2) = -4z - 8:

\longrightarrow -2(z + 3) = -z -4z - 8

Grouping like terms, -z - 4z - 8 = (-z - 4z) - 8:

\longrightarrow -2(z + 3) = (-z - 4z) - 8

-z - 4z = -5z:

\longrightarrow -2 (z + 3) = -5z - 8

Expand out terms of the left hand side:

\longrightarrow -2z - 6 = -5 z - 8

Add 5z to both sides:

\longrightarrow (5z - 2z) - 6 = (5z - 5z) - 8

5z - 5z = 0:

\longrightarrow (5z - 2z) - 6 = -8

5z - 2z = 3z:

\longrightarrow 3z - 6 = -8

Add 6 to both sides:

\longrightarrow 3z + (6 - 6) = 6 - 8

6 - 6 = 0:

\longrightarrow 3z = 6 - 8

6 - 8 = -2:

\longrightarrow 3z = -2

Divide both sides of 3z = -2 by 3:

\longrightarrow \sf \dfrac{3}{3}z = - \dfrac{2}{3}

\sf \dfrac{3}{3} = 1 :

\longrightarrow \sf z = - \dfrac{2}{3}

please help me! What is the approximate value of y? Round to the nearest tenth. A.) 3.1 B.) 3.9 C.) 4.6 D.) 5.4
cluponka [151]

Answer:

Option (C). 4.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached,

A right triangle has been given with hypotenuse = 6 cm, leg 1 = x cm, leg 2 = y cm and one angle = 50°

By applying Sine rule in this triangle,

Sin(50)° = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}=\frac{\text{Leg 1}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

Sin(50)° = \frac{x}{6}

x = 6(Sin50°)

x = 4.59

x ≈ 4.6 cm

Therefore, Option (C) will be the answer.
