Let's find the difference between every two numbers. Let's start with 12,500 and -2500. We know this is a multiplication or division problem because of every other number being negative.

-2500/12,500=-0.2; let's see if the product to -2500 and -0.2 is 500. -0.2×-2500=500 500×-0.2=-100; since you only have to multiply the previous number by -.2, let's find the next two numbers.

-100×-0.2=20 20×-0.2=-4

So, the next two numbers in the pattern are 20 and -4.

Answer:

Next two number are 20, -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : 12,500, -2500, 500, -100.

To find : Find the next two numbers in the pattern.

Solution : We have given

12,500, -2500, 500, -100.

We can see next number is \frac{-1}{5}th of previous number.

\frac{12500}{-5} = -2500

\frac{-2500}{-5} =500.

\frac{500}{-5} =-100 .

So, the next number would be

\frac{-100}{-5} = 20.

Next

\frac{20}{-5} = -4.

Therefore, Next two number are 20, -4.

From the congruent alternate interior angles resulting from the parallel lines, we have the equation 8x-34=5x+2. Solving, we have x=12^\circ and \angle D E F =5x+2=\boxed{62^\circ}.

Suppose that your business is operating at the 4.5-Sigma quality level. If projects have an average improvement rate of 50% annu
Luda [366]

Answer:

  11.75 years

Step-by-step explanation:

If we ignore the fact that "6-sigma" quality means the error rate corresponds to about -4.5σ (3.4 ppm) and simply go with ...

  P(z ≤ -6) ≈ 9.86588×10^-10

and

  P(z ≤ -4.5) ≈ 3.39767×10^-6

the ratio of these error rates is about 0.000290372. We're multiplying the error rate by 0.5 each year, so we want to find the power of 0.50 that gives this value:

  0.50^t = 0.000290372

  t·log(0.50) = log(0.00290372) . . . . take logarithms

  t = log(0.000290372)/log(0.50) ≈ -3.537045/-0.301030

  t ≈ 11.75

It will take about 11.75 years to achieve Six Sigma quality (0.99 ppb error rate).

_____

<em>Comment on Six Sigma</em>

A 3.4 ppm error rate is customarily associated with "Six Sigma" quality. It assumes that the process may have an offset from the mean of up to 1.5 sigma, so the "six sigma" error rate is P(z ≤ (1.5 -6)) = P(z ≤ -4.5) ≈ 3.4·10^-6.

Using that same criteria for the "4.5-Sigma" quality level, we find that error rate to be P(z ≤ (1.5 -4.5)) = P(z ≤ -3) ≈ 1.35·10^-3.

Then the improvement ratio needs to be only 0.00251699, and it will take only about ...

  t ≈ log(0.00251699)/log(0.5) ≈ 8.6 . . . . years
