Answer:
- <u><em>The height of the missing rectangle is 0.15</em></u>
Explanation:
The image attached has the mentioned <em>histogram</em>.
Such histogram presents the relative frequencies for the clases [0,1], [1,2],[2,3], [4,5], and [5,6] Silver in ppm.
Only the rectangle for the class [3,4] is missing.
The height of each rectangle is the relative frequency of the corresponding class.
The relative frequencies must add 1, because each relative frequency is calculated dividing the absolute class frequency by the total number in the sample; hence, the sum of all the relative frequencies is equal to the total absolute class frequencies divided by the same number, yielding 1.
In consequence, you can sum all the known relative frequencies and subtract from 1 to get the missing relative frequency, which is the height of the missing rectangle.
<u>1. Sum of the known relative frequencies</u>:
- 0.2 + 0.3 + 0.15 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 0.85
<u>2. Missing frequency</u>:
- 1 - 0.85 = 0.15
<u>3. Conclusion</u>:
- The height of the missing rectangle is 0.15

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Arithmetic Sequences </u>
The arithmetic sequences are identified because any term n is obtained by adding or subtracting a fixed number to the previous term. That number is called the common difference.
The equation to calculate the nth term of an arithmetic sequence is:
Where
an = nth term
a1 = first term
r = common difference
n = number of the term
The sum of the n terms of an arithmetic sequence is given by:
We are given the first two terms of the sequence:
a1=5, a2=8. The common difference is:
r = 8 - 5 = 3
Thus the general term of the sequence is:
The formula for the sum is:
