The pattern is adding 1.43 to the term before

1.11 + 1.43 = 2.54 + 1.43 = 3.97 + 1.43 = 5.40 . . .and so on.

Answer:

General rule is:

$a_{n}=a_{n-1}+1.43,\ a_{1}=1.11$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a sequence:

1.11, 2.54, 3.97, 5.40, ...

1.11+1.43=2.54

2.54+1.43=3.97

3.97+1.43=5.40

Hence, as we can see the next term is obtained by adding the previous term by 1.43

So, general rule is:

$a_{n}=a_{n-1}+1.43,\ a_{1}=1.11$

A statistics professor plans classes so carefully that the lengths of her classes are uniformly distributed between 48.0 and 58.

Yanka [14]

Answer: 0.025

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A statistics professor plans classes so carefully that the lengths of her classes are uniformly distributed between the interval [48.0 minutes, 58.0 minutes].

The probability density function :-

$f(x)=\dfrac{1}{58-48}=\dfrac{1}{10}$

Now, the probability that a given class period runs between 50.25 and 50.5 minutes is given by :-

$\int^{50.5}_{50.25}\ f(x)\ dx\\\\=\int^{50.5}_{50.25}\ \dfrac{1}{10}\ dx\\\\=\dfrac{1}{10}|x|^{50.5}_{50.25}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{10}\ [50.5-50.25]=\dfrac{1}{10}\times(0.25)=0.025$
