Answer:
.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a geometric sequence that means there is a common ratio. That means there is a number you can multiply over and over to get the next term.
The first term is 27.
The second term is (1/3)(27)=9.
The third term is (1/3)(9)=3.
So the common ratio is 1/3.
That means you can keep multiplying by 1/3 to find the next term in the sequence.
The explicit form for a geometric sequence is 
where 
is the first term and 
is the common ratio.
We are given 
and 
.
So the explicit form for the given sequence is .
1/2, 6/12, 9,/18, and 15/30
Answer:
c. How much money would be in the account after 18 years?
1. First, put the range in order and then divide the set into quarters. In this case, quartiles are between numbers.
<span>83, 85, 89, l 91, 95, 104, l 112, 118, 118, l 125, 134, 138
Q</span>₁ = (89 + 91)/2 = 90
Q₂ = (104 + 112)/2 =108
Q₃ = (118 + 125)/2 = 121.5
Interquartile range (IQR) = Q₃ - Q₁
= 121.5 - 90
IQR = 31.5
2. To find the standard deviation follow the simple steps.
Formula in finding the standard deviation: (see attached file)
Step 1. Work out the simple average of the numbers (mean)
<span><span><u>212 + 249 + 212 + 248 + 239 + 212 + 216 + 234 + 248</u>
</span> 9
= <span><u>2070</u>
</span> 9
mean (</span>μ) = 230
Step 2. Subtract the mean on each number and square the result.
212 - 230 = (-18)² = 324<span>
249 </span>- 230 = ( 19)² = 361<span>
212 </span>- 230 = (-18)² = 324<span>
248 </span>- 230 = (18)² = 324<span>
239 </span>- 230 = (9)² = 81<span>
212 </span>- 230 = (-18)² =324<span>
216 </span>- 230 = (-14)² =196<span>
234 </span>- 230 = (4)² =16<span>
248 </span>- 230 = (18)² =324
Step 3. Add all the squared results and get the mean.
<span><u>2274</u>
</span> 9
Variance = 252.6666667
Step 4. Get the square root of the variance.
√252.6666667
= 15.89549202
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume for a cone is given by:
For a given cone with a height of 6 inches, the volume is represented by:
We want to find the radius <em>r</em> in terms of <em>x</em>.
Since the height is 6, this means that:
By substitution:
Divide both sides by 2π:
Factor the right. Notice that we have a perfect square trinomial*:
Factor:
Therefore:
Take the square root of both sides. The radius should be positive, so we only need to consider the positive case:
And our answer is C!
