Given a table, with an input (x) and output (y) , you could actually use the slope formula to get the rate of change because slope is the same thing as rate of change. If you recall, the slope formula is (y2-y1)÷(x2-x1)
Just pick two points from the chart and plug them in and that is your rate of change

the second term of a geometric sequence is 18 and the fourth term is 8 find the common ratio . And find the sum of the first 6 t
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

  • ratio: 2/3
  • sum: 73 8/9

Step-by-step explanation:

The general term of a geometric sequence is ...

  an = a1·r^(n-1)

You have the 2nd and 4th terms, so ...

  a2 = a1·r^(2-1) = a1·r

  a4 = a1·r^(4-1) = a1·r^3

We can find r from the ratio ...

  a4/a2 = (a1·r^3)/(a1·r) = r^2 = 8/18 = 4/9

Then r is ...

  r = √(4/9) = 2/3 . . . . the common ratio

The first term is ...

  a2 = 18 = a1·(2/3)

  a1 = (3/2)·18 = 27

__

The sum of the first 6 terms is ...

  Sn = a1·(r^n -1)/(r -1)

  S6 = 27·((2/3)^6 -1)/(2/3 -1)

  S6 = 27·(64/729-1)/(2/3-1) = (27)(665)/243 = 73 8/9

The sum of the first 6 terms is 73 8/9.

_____

<em>Check on the sum</em>

The first 6 terms are ...

  27, 18, 12, 8, 5 1/3, 3 5/9

Their sum is 73 8/9, as above.

Two different types of polishing solutions are being evaluated for possible use in a tumble-polish operation for manufacturing i
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

z=\frac{0.843-0.653}{\sqrt{0.748(1-0.748)(\frac{1}{300}+\frac{1}{300})}}=5.358    

p_v =2*P(Z>5.358) = 4.2x10^{-8}  

Comparing the p value with the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say that we have singificantly differences between the two proportions.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

X_{1}=253 represent the number with no defects in sample 1

X_{2}=196 represent the number with no defects in sample 1

n_{1}=300 sample 1

n_{2}=300 sample 2

p_{1}=\frac{253}{300}=0.843 represent the proportion of number with no defects in sample 1

p_{2}=\frac{196}{300}=0.653 represent the proportion of number with no defects in sample 2

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the value for the test (variable of interest)  

\alpha=0.05 significance level given

Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if is there is a difference in the the two proportions, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:p_{1} - p_2}=0  

Alternative hypothesis:p_{1} - p_{2} \neq 0  

We need to apply a z test to compare proportions, and the statistic is given by:  

z=\frac{p_{1}-p_{2}}{\sqrt{\hat p (1-\hat p)(\frac{1}{n_{1}}+\frac{1}{n_{2}})}}   (1)  

Where \hat p=\frac{X_{1}+X_{2}}{n_{1}+n_{2}}=\frac{253+196}{300+300}=0.748  

z-test: Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine whether the means of two groups are equal to each other.  

Calculate the statistic  

Replacing in formula (1) the values obtained we got this:  

z=\frac{0.843-0.653}{\sqrt{0.748(1-0.748)(\frac{1}{300}+\frac{1}{300})}}=5.358    

Statistical decision

Since is a two sided test the p value would be:  

p_v =2*P(Z>5.358) = 4.2x10^{-8}  

Comparing the p value with the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say that we have singificantly differences between the two proportions.

35.6 = the square root of 15.3^2 + the square root of x^2. Find x.​
vivado [14]

Answer:

x = 50.9

Step-by-step explanation:

35.6 = √(15.3²) + √(x²)

35.6 = 15.3 + x

x = 35.6 + 15.3

x = 50.9
