11th term is 10240

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Given the sequence 10,20,40. So a(1) = 10, common ration, r = 20/10 = 2 Find the 11th term using the nth term formula, a(n) = ar^n-1

⇒ a(11) = 10 × 2^10 = 10 × 1024 = 10240

Answer:

The minimum sample size required to construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean is 65.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population standard deviation,

$\sigma = 3.10\text{ milligrams}$

We need to construct a 95% confidence interval such that the estimate is within 0.75 milligrams of the population mean.

Thus, the margin of error must me 0.75

Formula for margin of error:

$z_{critical}\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = 1.96$

Putting values, we get,

$0.75 = 1.86\times \dfrac{3.10}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\\sqrt{n} = \dfrac{1.96\times 3.10}{0.75}\\\\\sqrt{n} = 8.101\\\Rightarrow n = 65.63\approx 65$

Thus, the minimum sample size required to construct a 95% confidence interval for the population mean is 65.

Is 50 tens 9 ones <,>,= 49 tens 35 ones

Paul [167]

Their selling price was 2.45 times the price they bought it. If they split the profit evenly and there was two of them, multiply their profit by two and divide that number by 800 to find how much more they sold it for, so they sold it for 245% more than they bought it

Answer:

9)x=11 y=3

11)x=18 y=5

Step-by-step explanation:

9) 9x+25=13x+19 13x-19+17y+5=180

9x+44=13x 129+17y=180

44=4x 17y=51

11=x y=3

11) 49+3x=7x-23 3x=11y-1
