Unless you are missing parenthesis it something, With the order of operation, you would multiply 8 and 2 first, and divide 20 by 7, to get 18-16+2.857242, now add and subtract, you get 4.857242

PLEASE HELP ILL MARK BRAINLIEST !!!

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

a) the common difference is 20

b) $x_8=115 , x_{12}=195$

c) the common difference is -13

d) $a_{12}=52, a_{15}=13$

Step-by-step explanation:

a) what is the common difference of the sequence xn

Looking at the table, we get x_3=16, x_4=36 and x_5= 56

Deterring the common difference by subtracting x_4 from x_3 we get

36-16 =20

So, the common difference is 20

b) what is x_8? what is x_12

The formula used is: $x_n=x_1+(n-1)d$

We know common difference d= 20, we need to find $x_1$

Using $x_3=16$ we can find $x_1$

$x_n=x_1+(n-1)d\\x_3=x_1+(3-1)d\\15=x_1+2(20)\\15=x_1+40\\x_1=15-40\\x_1=-25$

So, We have $x_1 = -25$

Now finding $x_8$

$x_n=x_1+(n-1)d\\x_8=x_1+(8-1)d\\x_8=-25+7(20)\\x_8=-25+140\\x_8=115$

So, $\mathbf{x_8=115}$

Now finding $x_{12}$

$x_n=x_1+(n-1)d\\x_{12}=x_1+(12-1)d\\x_{12}=-25+11(20)\\x_{12}=-25+220\\x_{12}=195$

So, $\mathbf{x_{12}=195}$

c) what is the common difference of the sequence $a_m$

Looking at the table, we get a_7=104, a_8=91 and a_9= 78

Deterring the common difference by subtracting a_7 from a_8 we get

91-104 =-13

So, the common difference is -13

d) what is a_12? what is a_15?

The formula used is: $a_n=a_1+(n-1)d$

We know common difference d= -13, we need to find $a_1$

Using $a_7=104$ we can find $x_1$

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\a_7=a_1+(7-1)d\\104=a_1+7(-13)\\104=a_1-91\\a_1=104+91\\a_1=195$

So, We have $a_1 = 195$

Now finding $a_{12}$ , put n=12

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\a_{12}=a_1+(12-1)d\\a_{12}=195+11(-13)\\a_{12}=195-143\\a_{12}=52$

So, $\mathbf{a_{12}=52}$

Now finding $a_{15}$ , put n=15

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\a_{15}=a_1+(15-1)d\\a_{15}=195+14(-13)\\a_{15}=195-182\\a_{15}=13$

So, $\mathbf{a_{15}=13}$

The manager at the local auto shop has found that the probability that a car brought into the shop requires an oil change is 0.8

Ber [7]

Answer:

0.85

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two events A and B, the probability that either A or B occurs is given by:

$p(A\cup B) = p(A)+p(B)-p(A\cap B)$

where

$p(A)$ the probability that A occurs

$p(B)$ is the probability that B occurs

$p(A\cap B)$ is the probability that both A and B occur at the same time

In this problem, we know the following facts:

$p(o) = 0.83$ is the probability that the car requires an oil change

$p(b)=0.17$ is the probability that the car requires a brake repair

$p(o\cap b) = 0.15$ is the probability that the car requires both an oil change and brake repair

Therefore, the probability that either o (car requiring oil change) or b (car requiring brake repait) occur is:

$p(o\cup b)=p(o)+p(b)-p(o\cap b)=0.83+0.17-0.15 = 0.85$

Ill give brainliest to first right answer!

N76 [4]

Answer:

726

Step-by-step explanation:

Here p = k / q², and 24 = k / 121, or k = 2904

Then p = 2904 / q²

If q = 2, p = 2904 /4 = 726
