Answer:

\large\boxed{f(4)=-1292}

Step-by-step explanation:

f(n)=-5f(n-1)-2\\\\f(1)=10\\\\f(2)=-5f(2-1)-2=-5f(1)-2\\\text{put}\ f(1)=10:\\f(2)=-5(10)-2=-50-2=-52\\\\f(3)=-5f(3-1)-2=-5f(2)-2\\\text{put}\ f(2)=-52\\f(3)=-5(-52)-2=260-2=258\\\\f(4)=-5f(4-1)-2=-5f(3)-2\\\text{put}\ f(3)=258\\f(4)=-5(258)-2=-1290-2=-1292

If 8% of all cell phones are defective, and you have a random sample group of 100 Samsung Galaxy Vills,
Sati [7]

Answer:

Mean = 8

Variance = 7.36

Standard Deviation = 2.7129

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a binomial distribution with parameters, n and p.

Where

n is sample size (given as 100)

p is the probability of success, or probability of defective (given as 8% or 0.08)

The mean, variance, standard deviation formula for binomial distribution is shown below:

Mean = np

Variance = npq

Standard Deviation = \sqrt{npq}

Where q would be probability of failure, or "1 - p"

Thus,

n = 100

p = 0.08

q = 1 - 0.08 = 0.92

SO, we have:

Mean = np=100*0.08=8

Variance = npq=100*0.08*0.92 = 7.36

Standard Deviation = \sqrt{npq}=\sqrt{7.36}=2.7129

Can someone simply explain how to find the area of a triangular prism ? step by step ^^;
Vika [28.1K]
The formula:
A = bh + L (s1 + s2 + s3)

A: area
b: base
h: height
L: length
s1: side 1 (cross-sectional area)
s2: side 2 (cross-sectional area)
s3: side 3 (cross-sectional area)

Here’s an example (see attached image)

A = (4 x 6) + (12 x [7 + 7 + 4])
A = (24) + (12 x 18)
A = 24 + 216
A = 240cm^2

I hope this helped? Comment if you need more explanation or anything!

When you divide with negative exponents, you divide the rational numbers like normal and then you add the exponents.
Doss [256]

Answer:

the same as multiplying them, except you're doing the opposite: subtracting where you would have added and dividing where you would have multiplied. If the bases are the same, subtract the exponents. Remember to flip the exponent and make it positive, if needed.
