Yay, geometric sum
an=8(2)^(r-1)
anyway, sum of geometric sequence where a1=first term and n=which one and r=common ratio is
$S_n=\frac{a_1(1-r^n)}{1-r}$
so
first term is 50
common ratio is 2
n=8

$S_8=\frac{50(1-2^8)}{1-2}$
$S_8=\frac{50(1-256)}{-1}$
$S_8=-50(-255)$
S8=12760 visitors in first 8 weeks

Answer: b
explanation: CD=AB since they are parallel meaning 33 = x+14 (solve to get y=19) and then AD=CB because they are also parallel meaning y=10

An experimental study involves the researcher seeking to affect the results on purpose. The given situation is an observational study.

<h3>What are surveys, experiments, and observational studies?</h3>

Surveys are one type of observational study since the researchers have no control over the results. Statistical surveys collect data from a sample group in order to learn more about the overall population.
The sample population being examined is measured, or surveyed, in observational research. The researcher watches the individuals and measures variables but makes no attempt to influence the population or intervene in the study.
In contrast to an observational study, an experimental study involves the researcher seeking to affect the results on purpose. The objective is to find out what influence a certain therapy has on the result.

Since the researcher needs to find if a certain medicine improves the symptoms of the flu, therefore, the objective is to find out what influence a certain therapy has on the result. Hence, the given situation is an observational study.

If the mean time to respond to a stimulus is much higher than the median time to respond, what can you say about the shape of th

iragen [17]

If the mean time to respond to a stimulus is much higher than the median time to respond, the shape of the distribution of response times is positively skewed

<h3>How to determine the shape of the distribution</h3>

For a distribution, the following are the relationships between the mean and the median values

Equal mean and median
Mean greater than median
Median greater than mean

When the mean is greater than the median, it means that the distribution is skewed right or positively skewed

Hence, the shape of the distribution of response times is positively skewed.
