Answer:

<em>The sequence is geometric.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

In Arithmetic sequence, there is a common difference between any two consecutive terms but in Geometric sequence, there is a common ratio between any two consecutive terms.

Given sequence is:   50,  -50,  50,  -50,.................  

Lets assume, the terms as  a_{1}, a_{2}, a_{3}, a_{4},...........

<em><u>Checking for common difference:</u></em>  

a_{2}-a_{1}= (-50)-(50)= -100\\ \\ a_{3}-a_{2}=(50)-(-50)=100\\ \\ a_{4}-a_{3}=(-50)-(50)=-100

As there is no common difference, so it's not an arithmetic sequence.

<u><em>Checking for common ratio</em></u>

\frac{a_{2}}{a_{1}}=\frac{-50}{50}=-1\\ \\ \frac{a_{3}}{a_{2}}=\frac{50}{-50}=-1\\ \\ \frac{a_{4}}{a_{3}}=\frac{-50}{50}=-1

As there is a common ratio, so it's a geometric sequence.

The weights of 67 randomly selected axles were found to have a variance of 3.85. Construct the 80% confidence interval for the p
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

3.13

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 67

Variance = 3.85

We have to find 80% confidence interval for the population variance of the weights.

Degree of freedom = 67 - 1 = 66

Level of significance = 0.2

Chi square critical value for lower tail =

\chi^2_{1-\frac{\alpha}{2}}= 51.770

Chi square critical value for upper tail =

\chi^2_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}= 81.085

80% confidence interval:

\dfrac{(n-1)S^2}{\chi^2_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}} < \sigma^2 < \dfrac{(n-1)S^2}{\chi^2_{1-\frac{\alpha}{2}}}

Putting values, we get,

=\dfrac{(67-1)3.85}{81.085} < \sigma^2 < \dfrac{(67-1)3.85}{51.770}\\\\=3.13

Thus, (3.13,4.91) is the required 80% confidence interval for the population variance of the weights.

What is the total surface area of the solid?
Umnica [9.8K]
We’re going to use the formula for area of a rectangle, which is length x width. We are also going to use the formula for area of a triangle which is 1/2 x base x height.

Let’s start with the rectangle under the triangle ends of the roof. They are 11mm wide, 10mm high, and there are two of them.

11 x 10 x 2 = 220

Then the other sides that are 16 x 10. There are 2 of them.
16 x 10 x 2 = 320

Then the rectangular pieces of roof, 9.7 x 16, and there are 2 of them.

9.7 x 16 x 2 = 310.4

Lastly, the triangle pieces of roof. (1/2)(base)(height), but there are 2 of them
1/2 x 11 x 8 x 2 = 88

Add up all the parts:
220 + 320 + 310.4 + 88 = 938.4 mm
