Given the sequence -2,-8/3,-10/3,-4,-14/3 find the recursive formula

balu736 [363]

Step-by-step explanation:

-2, -8/3, -10/3, -4, -14/3

Write as multiples of 1/3.

-6/3, -8/3, -10/3, -12/3, -14/3

This is an arithmetic sequence where the first term is -6/3 and the common difference is -2/3.

Therefore, the recursive formula is:

aᵢ₊₁ = aᵢ − 2/3, a₁ = -2

Plz help!!<br> Consider the given right triangle.

aalyn [17]

Answer:

b = 8

c = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given right triangle,

a = $8\sqrt{3}$ , m(∠B) = 30°

By applying sine rule in the given triangle,

cos(B) = $\frac{\text{Adjacent side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$

cos(B) = $\frac{BC}{AB}$

cos(30°) = $\frac{8\sqrt{3}}{c}$

$\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}= \frac{8\sqrt{3} }{c}$

c = 16

Further we apply tangent rule,

tan(B) = $\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Adjacent side}}$

tan(30°) = $\frac{b}{a}$

$\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}=\frac{b}{8\sqrt{3} }$

b = 8

SAT scores are normed so that, in any year, the mean of the verbal or math test should be 500 and the standard deviation 100. as

vovangra [49]

Answer:

a) $P(X>625)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{625-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{625-500}{100})=P(Z>1.25)$

$P(Z>1.25)=1-P(Z$

b) $P(400$

$P(-1$

c) $z=-0.842$

And if we solve for a we got

$a=500 -0.842*100=415.8$

So the value of height that separates the bottom 20% of data from the top 80% is 415.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".

Part a

Let X the random variable that represent the SAT scores of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(500,100)$

Where $\mu=500$ and $\sigma=100$

We are interested on this probability

$P(X>625)$

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

$P(X>625)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{625-\mu}{\sigma})=P(Z>\frac{625-500}{100})=P(Z>1.25)$

And we can find this probability using the complement rule and with the normal standard table or excel:

$P(Z>1.25)=1-P(Z$

Part b

We are interested on this probability

$P(400$

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:

$P(400$

And we can find this probability with this difference:

$P(-1$

And in order to find these probabilities we can find tables for the normal standard distribution, excel or a calculator.

$P(-1$

Part c

For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

$P(X>a)=0.8$ (a)

$P(X$ (b)

Both conditions are equivalent on this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.

As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.2 of the area on the left and 0.8 of the area on the right it's z=-0.842. On this case P(Z<-0.842)=0.2 and P(Z>-0.842)=0.8

If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:

$P(X$

$P(z$

But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:

$z=-0.842$

And if we solve for a we got

$a=500 -0.842*100=415.8$

So the value of height that separates the bottom 20% of data from the top 80% is 415.8.
