Find the 8th term in the sequence 4, -24, 144, -864,

1 answer:

7 0

You just multiply each -6 as you pass by each.
4 x -6 = -24
-24 x -6 = 144 (multiplying two negative numbers equal a positive product)
144 x -6 = -864
-864 x -6 = 5,184
5,184 x -6 = 31,104
31,104 x -6 = -186,624
-186,624 x -6 = 1,119,744
1,119,744 x -6 = -6,718,464

The 8th term in the sequence is -6,718,464

sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

(a) The mean or expected value of X is 2.2.

(b) The standard deviation of X is 1.3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = number of times the traffic light is red when a commuter passes through the traffic lights.

The probability distribution of X id provided.

The formula to compute the mean or expected value of X is:

$\mu=E(X)=\sum x.P(X=x)$

The formula to compute the standard deviation of X is:

$\sigma=\sqrt{E(X^{2})-(E(X))^{2}}$

The formula of E (X²) is:

$E(X^{2})=\sum x^{2}.P(X=x)$

(a)

Compute the expected value of X as follows:

$E(X)=\sum x.P(X=x)\\=(0\times0.06)+(1\times0.25)+(2\times0.35)+(3\times0.15)+(4\times0.13)+(5\times0.06)\\=2.22\\\approx2.2$

Thus, the mean or expected value of X is 2.2.

(b)

Compute the value of E (X²) as follows:

$E(X^{2})=\sum x^{2}.P(X=x)\\=(0^{2}\times0.06)+(1^{2}\times0.25)+(2^{2}\times0.35)+(3^{2}\times0.15)+(4^{2}\times0.13)+(5^{2}\times0.06)\\=6.58$

Compute the standard deviation of X as follows:

$\sigma=\sqrt{E(X^{2})-(E(X))^{2}}\\=\sqrt{6.58-(2.22)^{2}}\\=\sqrt{1.6516}\\=1.285\\\approx1.3$

Thus, the standard deviation of X is 1.3.

Which shapes can be drawn with two opposite angles equal to 105°

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A shape with two opposite angles equal to 105° could be a quadrilateral, a parallelogram, a rhombus or a trapezoid

Because

A quadrilateral: A quadrilateral is a four-sided polygon. The sum of the interior angles in any quadrilateral must be equal to 360 degrees

If the quadrilateral have two opposite angles equal to 105°, then the sum of the other two interior angles must be equal to

$360^o-2(105^o)=150^o$

A parallelogram: A Parallelogram is a flat shape with opposite sides parallel and equal in length. Opposite angles are congruent and consecutive angles are supplementary

If the parallelogram have two opposite angles equal to 105°, then the measure of each of the other two congruent interior angles must be equal to

$180^o-105^o=75^o$

A rhombus: A Rhombus is a flat shape with 4 equal straight sides. A rhombus looks like a diamond. All sides have equal length. Opposite sides are parallel. Opposite angles are congruent and consecutive angles are supplementary

If the Rhombus have two opposite angles equal to 105°, then the measure of each of the other two congruent interior angles must be equal to

$180^o-105^o=75^o$

A trapezoid: A trapezoid is a 4-sided flat shape with straight sides that has a pair of opposite sides parallel

If the trapezoid have two opposite angles equal to 105°, then the sum of the other two interior angles must be equal to

$360^o-2(105^o)=150^o$
