It'a an arithmetic sequence:

a_1=-1\\\\a_2=-1+\dfrac{5}{3}=-\dfrac{3}{3}+\dfrac{5}{3}=\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\a_3=\dfrac{2}{3}+\dfrac{5}{3}=\dfrac{7}{3}\\\\a_4=\dfrac{7}{3}+\dfrac{5}{3}=\dfrac{12}{3}=4\\\\a_5=4+\dfrac{5}{3}=\dfrac{12}{3}+\dfrac{5}{3}=\dfrac{17}{3}\\\vdots\\\\\text{The general formula for nth term of an arithmetic sequence}\\\\a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\\\\text{We have}\ a_1=-1\ \text{and}\ d=\dfrac{5}{3}.\\\\\text{Substitute}\\\\a_n=-1+(n-1)\left(\dfrac{5}{3}\right)=-1+\dfrac{5}{3}n-\dfrac{5}{3}=\dfrac{5}{3}n-\dfrac{3}{3}-\dfrac{5}{3}

\boxed{a_n=\dfrac{5}{3}n-\dfrac{8}{3}}

The population of a small town is 39,668 and has been continuously declining at a 1.5% a year what will the population be in 13
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:  31, 932.74

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of the small town              =  39,668

Yearly rate of decline                                 = 1.5%

Therefore, to calculate 1.5% of 39,668       = 1.5  x 39,668

                                                                         ------------------

                                                                                  100

                                                                      =   595.02

So, the population is declining by 595.02 on yearly basis.

To ascertain what will the population would have declined to in the next 13 years,

We multiply ,                                                = 595.02 x 13

                                                                      =7,735.26

Now population in 13 years                         = 39,668 - 7,735.26

                                                                      = 31,932.74

Alexandra [31]

If the probability that a household owns a pet is 0.55 then the probability that all households will have pets is equal to 0.0503.

Given that the probability that a household owns a pet is 0.55 and there are 5 houses on a block.

We are required to calculate the probability that all the five households will have pets.

Probability is basicallly the chance of happening an event among all the events possible. It cannot be negative.

Binomial probability distribution is basically the probability calculations but in different combinations.

In this we have to calculate the probability that all the houses will have the pets then the probability that all five households will have pets is equal to 5C_{5}(0.55)^{5} (1-0.55)^{0}

=1(0.0503)(0.45)^{0}

=1*0.0503*1

=0.0503

Hence the probability that all the five households will have pets is equal to 0.0503.
