a_n=a_1r^{n-1}\\\\a_1=-2;\ a_2=8;\ a_3=-32;\ a_4=128\\\\r=a_2:a_1\to r=8:(-2)=-4\\\\\boxed{a_n=-2\cdot(-4)^{n-1}}

Which sentence correctly describes a data set that follows a normal distribution with a standard deviation of 4 and a mean of 14
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Option (c) is correct.

68% of the data points lie between 10 and 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  a normal distribution with a standard deviation of 4 and a mean of 14

We have to choose the  sentence that correctly describes a data set that follows a normal distribution with a standard deviation of 4 and a mean of 14.

Since, given 68% data.

We know mean of data lies in middle.

And standard deviation is distribute equally about the mean that is 50% of values less than the mean  and 50% greater than the mean.

So, 68% of data lies

mean - standard deviation = 14 - 4 = 10

mean + standard deviation = 14 + 4 = 18

So, 68% of the data points lie between 10 and 18.

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!
allochka39001 [22]

1. is D) 4/3    To find the slope we will insert the numbers into this formula: y2 - y2 / x2 - x1, so... 1 + 3/ 1 + 2 (the negatives canceled each other out)

now simplify and it becomes 4/3

so ur answer to 1. is D) 4/3

2. Plot this one...it rly helps...then use the slope to find the point ur looking 4, the answer is C) -2

3. The answer is B) -2

Hope that helps u out!! :)

Which inequality is graphed below?
krok68 [10]

ANSWER

y  \geqslant  \frac{1}{4} x - 1

EXPLANATION

The graph has a solid boundary line.

The region above the boundary line is shaded

Therefore the inequality sign involved is '≥'

The boundary line has equation

y =  \frac{1}{4} x - 1

We can now conclude that, the inequality graphed above is

y  \geqslant  \frac{1}{4} x - 1
