The explicit rule for the arithmetic sequence shown in the graph is a↓n=9.5+2(n-1)

Answer:

True.

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit form for an arithmetic sequence is:

a_n=a_1+d(n-1)

where a_1 is the first term and d is the common difference.

The common difference here is 2 because the y's are going up by 2 while the x's are going up by 1.

Yes, the common difference is the slope.

So we have d=2.

The first term is 9.5 because that is what happens when x=1.

x is n.

y is a_n.

So the answer is true.

You can also verify by plugging in numbers for n and see if you get the outputs mentioned in the pairs given:

Let n=1:

a_1=9.5+2(1-1)

a_1=9.5+2(0)

a_1=9.5+0

a_1=9.5

Let n=2:

a_2=9.5+2(2-1)

a_2=9.5+2(1)

a_2=9.5+2

a_2=11.5

Let n=3:

a_3=9.5+2(3-1)

a_3=9.5+2(2)

a_3=9.5+4

a_3=13.5

Let n=4:

a_4=9.5+2(4-1)

a_4=9.5+2(3)

a_4=9.5+6

a_4=15.5

Let n=5:

a_5=9.5+2(5-1)

a_5=9.5+2(4)

a_5=9.5+8

a_5=17.5

Let n=6:

a_6=9.5+2(6-1)

a_6=9.5+2(5)

a_6=9.5+10

a_6=19.5

We have confirmed that we get all 6 of the mentioned points using the equation they gave.

cluponka [151]

Answer:

The 98% confidence interval estimate of the true average amount of soft drink in each bottle is between 2.97 liters and 3.01 liters.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, so we use the t-distribution to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 64 - 1 = 63

98% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 63 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 1 - \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.99. So we have T = 2.387

The margin of error is:

M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.387\frac{0.06}{\sqrt{64}} = 0.02

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 2.99 - 0.02 = 2.97 liters

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 2.99 + 0.02 = 3.01 liters

The 98% confidence interval estimate of the true average amount of soft drink in each bottle is between 2.97 liters and 3.01 liters.
