What is the common ratio for the geometric sequence 768,480,300,187.5

Mathematics
1 answer:
almond37 [142]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

the common ratio is 0.625 or if you prefer 5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Every geometric sequence has a common ratio which is a constant and is the quotient of any term divided by the term preceding it.  In this case:

r=480/768=300/480=187.5/300=0.625

(4.1.4) Let X and Y be Bernoulli random variables. Let Z = X + Y. a. Show that if X and Y cannot both be equal to 1, then Z is a
Fynjy0 [20]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

a)

X ~ Bernoulli (p_x) and Y ~ Bernoulli (y_x)

X + Y = Z

The possible value for Z are Z = 0 when X = 0 and Y = 0

and Z = 1 when X = 0 and Y = 1 or when X = 1 and Y = 0

If X and Y can not be both equal to 1 , then the probability mass function of the random variable Z takes on the value of 0 for any value of Z other than 0 and 1,

Therefore Z is a Bernoulli random variable

b)

If X and Y can not be both equal to  1

then,

p_z = P(X=1 or Y=1)\\

p_z = P(X=1)+P(Y=1)-P(=1 and Y =1)

p_z = P(x=1)+P(Y=1)\\\\p_z=p_x+p_y

c)

If both X = 1 and Y = 1 then Z = 2

The possible values of the random variable Z are 0, 1 and 2.

since a  Bernoulli variable should be take on only values 0 and 1 the random variable Z does not have Bernoulli distribution

Solve the equation for x by graphing -2x + 3 = -3(-x) - 2
adoni [48]

Answer:

  x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of ways to solve this. One is to graph the left side of the equation, graph the right side of the equation, and look for the point where those graphs intersect. It is at x = 1. The first attached graph shows this solution.

__

Another method for solving such an equation is to subtract one side from the other and look for the value of x that makes the resulting expression zero.

  (-2x +3) -(-3(-x) -2) = 0

A graphing calculator doesn't need to have this simplified. If it is simplified, it becomes ...

  -5x +5 = 0

So, the graphed line is y = -5x+5. Its x-intercept is x=1, the solution of the original equation. The graph of this is shown in the second attachment.
