Answer: Only the second sequence is arithmetic.
Work:
An arithmetic sequence is a sequence in which there is a common value added or subtracted between each term in the sequence.
The first option, -2, 4, -6, 8,... is not arithmetic because the terms switch back and forth between positive and negative signs meaning that there is no common value that can be added between each term.
The second option, -8, -6, -4, -2,... is arithmetic because there is a common difference between each term which is +2.
The third option, 2, 4, 8, 16,... is not arithmetic but is, in fact, geometric. There is no common value that is added or subtracted between each term.
Answer:
c) 1
Step-by-step explanation:
=> ax+y = 5
<u><em>Putting x =2, y =3</em></u>
=> a(2)+3 = 5
=> 2a = 5-3
=> 2a = 2
<em>Dividing both sides by 2</em>
=> a = 1
Answer:
I pretty sure it's C or lllll
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The total surface area of this triangular prism consists of three rectangles and two triangles. Adding the areas of each of these shapes allows us to find the total surface area of this 3D figure:
Area of both triangles:

Area of all three rectangles:

Therefore, the total surface area of this figure is:

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the random variable. Since it is normally distributed and the population mean and population standard deviation are known, we would apply the formula,
z = (x - µ)/σ
Where
x = sample mean
µ = population mean
σ = standard deviation
From the information given,
µ = 474
σ = 32
x = 514
The probability of being below 514 is expressed as P(x < 514)
For x = 514,
z = (514 - 474)/32 = 1.25
Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability value corresponding to area below the z score is 0.89
Therefore,
P(x < 514) = 0.89
