Answer: The correct option is (C) 44.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to find the 15-th term of the sequence using the following formula for the n-th term of the sequence:

$c_n=3n-1~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)$

Since we are to find the 15-th term of the given sequence, so we will substitute the value of n as 15 in the given formula.

Substituting n = 15 in the given formula (i), we get

$c_{15}=3n-1=3\times 15-1=45-1=44.$

Thus, the 15-th term of the given sequence is 44.

Option (C) is correct.

If a cup of coffee has temperature 97Â°C in a room where the ambient air temperature is 25Â°C, then, according to Newton's Law o

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

The average temperature is $T_{a} = 81.95^oC$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The temperature of the coffee after time t is $T(t) = 25 + 72 e^{[-\frac{t}{45} ]}$

Now the average temperature during the first 22 minutes i.e fro $0 \to 22$ minutes is mathematically evaluated as

$T_{a} = \frac{1}{22-0} \int\limits^{22}_{0} {25 +72 e^{[-\frac{t}{45} ]}} \, dx$

$T_{a} = \frac{1}{22} [25 t + 72 [\frac{e^{[-\frac{t}{45} ]}}{-\frac{1}{45} } ] ] \left| 22} \atop {0}} \right.$

$T_{a} = \frac{1}{22} [25 t - 3240e^{[-\frac{t}{45} ]} ] \left | 45} \atop {{0}} \right.$

$T_{a} = \frac{1}{22} [25 (22) - 3240e^{[-\frac{22}{45} ]} - (- 3240e^{0} )]$

$T_{a} = \frac{1}{22} [550 - 1987.12 + 3240]$

$T_{a} = 81.95^oC$

Team jerseys are either $188.94 for 6, or $243.92 for 8. Find each unit price and tell which cost has the lower price per jersey

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

$243.92 for 8 is cheaper

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the unit price for the 6 shirts you would do 188.94 divided by 6.

To find the unit price for the 8 shirts you would do 243.92 divided by 8

for 6 shirts it's: $31.49/shirt

for 8 shirts it's: $30.49/shirt

About 10% of the human population is left-handed. Suppose a researcher speculates that artists are more likely to be left-handed

nevsk [136]

Answer:

Given the information in the question;

a) The parameter of interest is the population of artists who are left-handed and its is 10% = (10/1000 = 0.10

b) The Null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis are;

<em>H₀ : p </em>= 0.10

<em>H₁ : p</em> > 0.10

c) The sample proportion is calculated as:

p = number of left handed artist / sample size

p = 26 / 200

p = 0.13

d) To find the p-value, The researcher should calculate the probability that the sample proportion would be 0.13 or larger for a sample of size 200 if the population proportion is actually 0.10.

What’s -9/6 divided by -1/8

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

-9/6 divided by -1/8 equals 12

Step-by-step explanation:

. A negative divided by a negative is a positive so... 9/6 divided by 1/8

. To divide by a fraction, multiply by the reciprocal of that fraction so... 9/6 times 8

. Reduce the fraction with 3 so... 3/2 times 8

. Reduce the numbers with the greatest common factor 2 so... 3 times 4

. Multiply the numbers so... 3 times 4 equals 12
