\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
n&term&value\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
1&a_1&a_1\\
2&a_2&6a_1\\
3&a_3&6(6a_1)\\
&&36a_1
\end{array}\implies \stackrel{\textit{3rd term is 24}}{36a_1=24}
\\\\\\
a_1=\cfrac{24}{36}\implies  a_1=\cfrac{2}{3}

\bf n^{th}\textit{ term of a geometric sequence}
\\\\
a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
n=n^{th}\ term\\
a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\
r=\textit{common ratio}\\
----------\\
r=6\\
a_1=\frac{2}{3}
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
\boxed{a_n=\cfrac{2}{3}\cdot 6^{n-1}}

The measure of angle ABD is 105º. The measure of angle ABC is 75º.
MakcuM [25]

If we know that the WHOLE angle added is 105 and only part is 75 you need to subtract the whole angle and subtract from part of the whole angle.

105-75=30. You get 30 And that’s you answer!

According to a 2014 research study of national student engagement in the U.S., the average college student spends 17 hours per w
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We would set up the hypothesis test. This is a test of a single population mean since we are dealing with mean

For the null hypothesis,

µ = 17

For the alternative hypothesis,

µ < 17

This is a left tailed test.

Since the population standard deviation is not given, the distribution is a student's t.

Since n = 80,

Degrees of freedom, df = n - 1 = 80 - 1 = 79

t = (x - µ)/(s/√n)

Where

x = sample mean = 15.6

µ = population mean = 17

s = samples standard deviation = 4.5

t = (15.6 - 17)/(4.5/√80) = - 2.78

We would determine the p value using the t test calculator. It becomes

p = 0.0034

Since alpha, 0.05 > than the p value, 0.0043, then we would reject the null hypothesis.

The data supports the professor’s claim. The average number of hours per week spent studying for students at her college is less than 17 hours per week.
