Answer:

Explicit formula: s_{n}=6(2)^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of squares in n^{th} layer be s_{n}

Given:

Number of squares in first layer, s_{1}=6

Number of squares in second layer, s_{2}=12

Therefore, the number of squares increases by a factor of 2.

So, it follows a geometric sequence with the first term as 6 and common ratio of 2.

For a geometric sequence, the n^{th} term with common ratio r is given as:

s_{n}=s_{1}\times r^{n-1}

Here, r=2,s_{1}=6

∴ Explicit formula: s_{n}=6(2)^{n-1}

For bone density scores that are normally distributed with a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of​ 1, find the percentage of sc
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

a) Scores of 2 and higher are significantly high

b) Scores of -2 and lower are significantly low

c) Scores between -2 and 2 are not significant.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = 0

Standard deviation = 1

a. significantly high​ (or at least 2 standard deviations above the​ mean).

2 standard deviations above the mean is:

0 + 1*2 = 2

So scores of 2 and higher are significantly high

b. significantly low​ (or at least 2 standard deviations below the​ mean).

2 standard deviations below the mean is:

0 - 1*2 = -2

So scores of -2 and lower are significantly low

c. not significant​ (or less than 2 standard deviations away from the​ mean).

2 standard deviations above the mean is:

0 + 1*2 = 2

2 standard deviations below the mean is:

0 - 1*2 = -2

So scores between -2 and 2 are not significant.

An anatomy model of an adult human is 7 inches tall. Most adult humans are between 5 feet and 6 feet tall. What is the approxima
hjlf

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 12 inches in 1 feet, so

5 feet = 5 * 12 = 60 inch

6 feet = 6 * 12 = 72 inch

So, we can say most adult humans are between 60 to 72 inches tall

The model is 7 inches tall. So, from the answer choices, 7 * 10 = 70 [the number that is in between 60 to 72]. Thus we can take the model to be 1/10th of the original.

So the scale factor is 1/10, or option B
