7. general term of gp is given by ar^n-1
hence,4th term is given by

ar^3=15 ------(1)
ar^6=405-----(2)

equation 2/1,we get
r^3=27
so common ratio r=3
putting value of r in equation 1,
we get a=5/9

so gp upto 7 terms will be 5/9,5/3,5,15,45,135,405

8. a=3
given 4th term is -24
so ar^3=-24

substituting value of a we get r^3=-8
r^3= -2^3
so r = -2

using this x2 is ar= 3*-2=-6
           
               x3 is ar^2= 3*4=12

An organization will give a prize to a local artist. The artist will be randomly chosen from among 3 painters, 7 sculptors, and
umka2103 [35]
So we have 10 painters and sculptors all together. There are also 22 people in total. That means we have a 10/22 chance it will be one of those artists. This fraction can be reduced to 5/11.

13) A rectangular garden has an area of 45 square meters. The garden will be 4 meters longer than its width Write and sowe an eq
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

9m ×5m

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle= length ×width

Let the width be W meters and the length be L meters.

2 equations can be written from the given information:

45= WL -----(1)

L= W +4 -----(2)

Substitute (2) into (1):

45= W(W +4)

<em>Expand:</em>

45= W² +4W

<em>-45 on both sides:</em>

W² +4W -45= 0

<em>Factorise:</em>

(W +9)(W -5)= 0

W+9=0 or W-5=0

W= -9 or W= 5

(reject)

Substitute W= 5 into (2):

L= 5 +4

L= 9

∴ The dimensions of the garden is 9m ×5m.

In a certain population, body weights are normally distributed with a mean of 152 pounds and a standard deviation of 26 pounds.
Burka [1]


xBar ± z * sx / sqrt(n)

 

where xBar is the sample mean

z is the zscore for having α% of the data in the tails, i.e., P( |Z| > z) = α

sx is the sample standard deviation

n is the sample size

 

For sample size calcualtions we need the following. The width of the interval, from one end point to the center is:

 

z * sx / sqrt(n) =

 

w and solving for n gives:

 

<span> n = (z * sx / w) ^ 2 </span>

 

remember that n needs to be an integer. Always take the ceiling, i.e., round up. If you round down then the width of the interval will not be correct, it will be too wide. By rounding up, the interval will be more narrow than asked for, but this is a good thing. It means there is more precision in the estimate.

 

<span> here we have </span>

 

z = 2.05

w = 0.04 * 152 = 6.08

n = (z * sx / w) ^ 2 n = (2.05 * 26 / 6.08)^2

n = 76.8506

 

Round of the answer since n must be an integer.

 

<span>n = 77 </span>
