You just add all the numbers together:
3 1/8+ 4 1/2+ 4 1/4
=25/8+9/2+17/4
=25/8+36/8+34/8
=95/8
=11 7/8
Ugh.. did you type in the numbers correctly? My guess would be it was meant to be B tho :)
The answer to your question is 89
Answer:
The nth term of the geometric sequence 7, 14, 28, ... is:
![a_n=7\cdot \:2^{n-1}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=a_n%3D7%5Ccdot%20%5C%3A2%5E%7Bn-1%7D)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the geometric sequence
7, 14, 28, ...
We know that a geometric sequence has a constant ratio 'r' and is defined by
![a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=a_n%3Da_1%5Ccdot%20r%5E%7Bn-1%7D)
where a₁ is the first term and r is the common ratio
Computing the ratios of all the adjacent terms
![\frac{14}{7}=2,\:\quad \frac{28}{14}=2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B14%7D%7B7%7D%3D2%2C%5C%3A%5Cquad%20%5Cfrac%7B28%7D%7B14%7D%3D2)
The ratio of all the adjacent terms is the same and equal to
![r=2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=r%3D2)
now substituting r = 2 and a₁ = 7 in the nth term
![a_n=a_1\cdot r^{n-1}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=a_n%3Da_1%5Ccdot%20r%5E%7Bn-1%7D)
![a_n=7\cdot \:2^{n-1}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=a_n%3D7%5Ccdot%20%5C%3A2%5E%7Bn-1%7D)
Therefore, the nth term of the geometric sequence 7, 14, 28, ... is:
![a_n=7\cdot \:2^{n-1}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=a_n%3D7%5Ccdot%20%5C%3A2%5E%7Bn-1%7D)
The correct answer is that there is more variability in the heights of the volleyball team members.
The mean absolute deviation shows us how spread out the data is, so the larger the mean absolute deviation the higher the variability.
Both teams have players that are 76 inches tall, so the last two statements cannot be true.
