Mathematics

U1 = a =  16

r = 32/16 = 2

Un = 256

Un = a.r^n-1

256 = 16.2^n-1

2^n-1 = 256/16

2^n-1 = 16

2^n-1 = 2^4

n-1 = 4

n = 5


Sn = a(r^n - 1) / r-1

S5 = 16(2^5 - 1) / 2-1

S5 = 16(31)

S5 = 496

Answer:

6/10

Step-by-step explanation:

all can be reduced to 2/5, except 6/10:

2/5

8/20=2/5   (divide out 4)

Assume that blood pressure readings are normally distributed with a mean of 124 and a standard deviation of 6.4. If 64 people ar
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

99.38%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the mean (m) is equal to 124, the standard deviation (sd) 6.4 and the sample size (n) = 64

They ask us for P (x <126)

For this, the first thing is to calculate z, which is given by the following equation:

z = (x - m) / (sd / (n ^ 1/2))

We have all these values, replacing we have:

z = (126 - 124) / (6.4 / (64 ^ 1/2))

z = 2.5

With the normal distribution table (attached), we have that at that value, the probability is:

P (z <2.5) = 0.9938

The probability is 99.38%

11. Maria's age is 3 years more than twice George's age. Which expression represents George's age in terms of Maria's?
leonid [27]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, the catch of this question is that they do a very good job of explaining Maria's age in terms of George's age, but they leave George's age in terms of Maria's all up to you.

First start off by doing an expression of what they explicitly give you. Maria's age in terms of George's age.

Let's use variables g, representing George's age and m representing Maria's age

m = 2g + 3

Okay, this is all dandy and all, but they ask us for George's age in terms of Maria's, so we need to isolate for g.

subtract the 3 from both sides, like so:

m - 3 = 2g

then divide 2 from both sides: (remember we're dividing the whole thing)

(m-3)/2 = g

Now we have an expression for George's age in terms of Maria's.

g = (m-3)/2 or g = \frac{m-3}{2}

The answer that gives us this, is C.
