Just replace n with 13 in the formula:  <span>an=84+(n-1)(-6)

Thus, a(13)=84+(13-1)(-6) = 84 - 72 = 12 (answer)</span>

Answer:

12


Step-by-step explanation:

The formula given is a_n=84+(n-1)(-6)

Where a_n gives the nth term


<em>Since we want 13th term, we can say we want a_{13} and we plug in 13 in n into the formula. So we get:</em>

a_n=84+(n-1)(-6)\\a_{13}=84+(13-1)(-6)\\a_{13}=84+(12)(-6)\\a_{13}=84-72\\a_{13}=12


So, the 13th term of the sequence is 12

Suppose that a brand of lightbulb lasts on average 1730 hours with a standard deviation of 257 hours. Assume the life of the lig
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

P [  1689  ≤   X  ≤  2267 ]  = 54,88 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Distribution

Mean        μ₀  =  1730

Standard Deviation      σ  = 257

We need to calculate  z scores for the values   1689     and      2267

We apply formula for z scores

z =  ( X -  μ₀ ) /σ

X = 1689     then

z = (1689 - 1730)/ 257      ⇒ z = - 41 / 257

z  = -  0.1595

And from z table we get  for  z =  - 0,1595

We have to interpolate

        - 0,15          0,4364

        - 0,16          0,4325

Δ  =   0.01           0.0039

0,1595  -  0,15  =  0.0095

By rule of three

0,01                  0,0039

0,0095                 x ??      x  =  0.0037

And    0,4364  -  0.0037  = 0,4327

Then    P [ X ≤ 1689 ]  =  0.4327     or    P [ X ≤ 1689 ]  = 43,27 %

And for the upper limit  2267  z  score will be

z  =  ( X - 1730 ) / 257       ⇒  z =  537 / 257

z  =  2.0894

Now from z table   we find  for score   2.0894

We interpolate and assume  0.9815

P [ X ≤ 2267 ]  =  0,9815

Ths vale already contains th value of   P [ X ≤ 1689 ]  =  0.4327

Then we subtract  to get    0,9815  -  0,4327   = 0,5488

Finally

P [ 1689  ≤   X  ≤  2267 ]  =  0,5488  or  P [  1689  ≤   X  ≤  2267 ]  = 54,88 %

Which situations illustrate that the sum of opposite numbers is zero?
Mrac [35]
I believe C and E, because in C, he puts in 600 then takes out 600, which equals 0. in E, they get 3000 and then spend the 3000, which also equals 0.

Could someone please answer #35 for me
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

408

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume = length times width times height

So in this situation we can see that 17 is the length, 8 is the width, and 6 is the height

Knowing this information we can continue

If you think of a regular cube, you can split it diagonally and then it would be 2 triangles

So we can split the width, in halve which would be 4 and then apply the formula 4*6*17 and when you solve that you get 408 Now we have to split that in halve because remember it is a triangle and a triangle is halve of a square. Halve of 408 is 204.

If we repeat that prosses for the other side we will also get 204. Now we add 204+204 to get our answer 408.

Sorry is this was a little confusing but that's the best I can explain it.

Hope that helped and have a great day!
