1) Find the 128th term for the sequence 9, 4, -1, -6, 11,...

1 answer:

5 0

To determine an nth term of an arithmetic sequence, we use the expression an = a1 + (n-1)d where a1 is the first term in the sequence, n is the number of the term in the sequence and d is the common difference. For a geometric sequence, it is expressed an = a1r^(n-1). We calculate as follows:

1. a128 = 9 + (128-1)(-5)
a128 = -626

2. a97 = (-3)(-2)^(97-1)
a97 = -2.377x10^29

inn [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Width = 0.4

Let's take the z value of 95% which is = 1.96

Let's assume population proportion p1 and p2 = 0.5

For margin of error E, the relation between the width and margin of error is 2E.

i.e 2E = 0.4

E = 0.2

To find the sample size, n, let's use the formula :

$n= \frac{z^2*(p_1(1-p_1) + p_2(1-p_2))}{E^2}$

$= \frac{1.96^2(0.5(1-0.5)+0.5(1-0.5))}{0.2^2}$

= 48.02

≈ 49
