So this is going to be using proportions, which in this case is going to be $\frac{18}{21} =\frac{25}{x}$

Firstly, cross-multiply to get $18x=525$

Next, just divide 18 on both sides, and your answer will be $x=29.2$ , or the last option.

Answer:

Ai. Arithmetic sequence

Aii. Tn = 5 + 7n

Bi. Geometric

Bii. Tn = 8 × 2ⁿ¯¹

Step-by-step explanation:

To successfully answer the questions given above, note the following:

1. If the sequence is Arithmetic, then:

2nd – 1st = 3rd – 2nd = common difference (d)

2. If the sequence is geometric, then,

2nd / 1st = 3rd / 2nd = common ratio (r)

3. A sequence can not be arithmetic geometric at the same time.

4. The nth term of arithmetic sequence is:

Tn = a + (n – 1)d

5. The nth term of geometric sequence is:

Tn = arⁿ¯¹

A. Sequence => 12, 19, 26

i. Determination of the type of sequence.

We'll begin by calculating the common difference

1st term = 12

2nd term = 19

3rd term = 26

Common difference (d) = 2nd – 1st

d = 19 – 12 = 7

d = 3rd – 2nd

d = 26 – 19 = 7

Since a common difference exist in the sequence, the sequence is arithmetic sequence.

ii. Determination of the nth term.

Common difference (d) = 7

1st term (a) = 12

nth term (Tn) =?

Tn = a + (n – 1)d

Tn = 12 + (n – 1)7

Tn = 12 + 7n – 7

Tn = 5 + 7n

B. Sequence => 8, 16, 32

Bi. Determination of the type of sequence.

Let us begin by calculating the common ratio.

1st term = 8

2nd term = 16

3rd term = 32

Common ratio (r) = 2nd / 1st

r = 16 / 8

r = 2

r = 3rd / 2nd

r = 32 / 16

r = 2

Since a common ratio exist in the sequence, the sequence is geometric.

Bii. Determination of the nth term.

Common ratio(r) = 2

1st term (a) = 8

nth term =?

Tn = arⁿ¯¹

Tn = 8 × 2ⁿ¯¹

A study was done to determine the average number of homes that a homeowner owns in his or her lifetime. For the 60 homeowners su

const2013 [10]

Answer:

D) (3.67, 4.73)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval for the true average number of homes that a person owns in his or her lifetimecan be calculated using M±ME where

M is the average number of home owned (4.2)

ME is the margin of error from the mean

And margin of error (ME) can be calculated as

ME= $\frac{z*s}{\sqrt{N} }$ where

z is the corresponding statistic in the given confidence level(1.96)

s is the standard deviation of the sample(2.1)

N is the sample size (60)

Putting the numbers we get ME= $\frac{1.96*2.1}{\sqrt{60} }$ ≈0.53

Then the 95% confidence interval is 4.2±0.53 or (3.67, 4.73)

What is the range of y= x + 2?

Lelu [443]

Answer:

A) all real numbers greater than or equal to 2

Domain: $x\geq 0$

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable in the radical x cannot be less than 0 as that wouldn’t be defined. So, the maximum that x can be is 0, and $y=x+2$ . So, 0+2=2, and y is greater than or equal to 2.

Domain is x is greater than or equal to 0 because you cannot square a negative. So, it must not be less than 0. It could be 0 because square root of 0 is just 0.
