Answer:

Hence MAD=0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

MAD is also known as Mean Absolute Deviation.

We find MAD by the following steps:

Firstly we find the mean of the data
Then we subtract each entry from the mean to obtain the deviation
Then find the absolute value of the deviation which is also known as absolute deviation.
Finally we find the mean of the absolute deviation.

Now we are given a table of the absolute deviation we just need to calculate the mean of the absolute deviation.

The absolute deviation is given as:

1 3 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 1

The mean of this is calculated as:

$\dfrac{1+3+1+0+0+1+0+0+1+1}{10}=\dfrac{8}{10}=0.8$

Hence, MAD=0.8

What is the 7th term of the geometric sequence where a1 = -625 and a2 = 125

kykrilka [37]

Since the sequence is geometric, there is some constant $r$ such that the sequence is recursively given by

$a_n=ra_{n-1}$

By this definition, you can recursively substitute into the right hand side the definition for $a_{n-1},a_{n-2},\ldots$ to find an explicit formula for the $n$ th term.

$a_n=ra_{n-1}=r^2a_{n-2}=r^3a_{n-3}=\cdots=r^{n-1}a_1=-625r^{n-1}$

You know the second term, which means you can find $r$ :

$a_2=-625r^{2-1}\implies125=-625r\implies r=-\dfrac15$

So, the 7th term of the sequence is

$a_7=-625\left(-\dfrac15\right)^{7-1}=-\dfrac1{25}$

Solve and reduce to lowest terms: x =<br> Please don't make it to long

dusya [7]

Answer:

2/11

Step-by-step explanation:

6 = 2 x 3

6/11 x 1/3

= ( 6 x 1 )/( 11 x 3 )

= ( 2 x 3 x 1 )/( 11 x 3 )

Cancel 3 in both numerator and denominator.

= ( 2 x 1 )/( 11 )

= 2/11
