Answer:

1. 1458

2. 500 or -500

Step-by-step explanation:

1. a4=54, a5=162

r = 162/54 = 3

a7 = a5 × r²

= 162 × 3² = 1458

2.a4=-4, a6=-100

r² = -100/-4 = 25

r = +/- 5

a7 = a6 × r

= -100 × +/- 5

= +/- 500

you have $18 to buy peppers. peppers cost $1.50 each. write and solve an inequality that represents the number of peppers you ca

Nezavi [6.7K]

At most 12 peppers can be bought with $18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total amount for peppers = $18

Cost per pepper = $1.50

Let p be the number of peppers that can be bought from $18 at $1.50 per pepper

So,

$1.50p\leq 18$

Dividing both sides by 1.50

$\frac{1.50p}{1.50}\leq \frac{18}{1.50}\\p\leq 12$

Hence,

At most 12 peppers can be bought with $18

A multiple choice test has four possible answers for each question. Let X be the number of correct responses in a test of 100 qu

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

a. 4.33.

Step-by-step explanation:

If there is only one correct answer out of four alternatives, the expected proportion of correct answers is p =0.25

Sample size (n) = 100 questions

The standard deviation of a proportion 'p' is given by:

$s=\sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{n} }$

Applying the given data:

$s=\sqrt{\frac{0.25*(1-0.25)}{100}}\\s=0.0433$

If X is the number of correct responses in 100 guesses, the standard deviation of X is:

$\sigma = n*s=100*0.0433\\\sigma = 4.33$

The standard deviation of X is 4.33 questions.
