Answer:

The parameter of interest = the average financial aid package for students admitted μ.

Null hypothesis H0; μ = $49,250

Alternative hypothesis Ha; μ ≠ $49,250

Step-by-step explanation:

The population parameter of interest is the parameter in which the data is focused on. For the case above, the parameter of interest is the average financial aid package for students admitted.

The null hypothesis (H0) tries to show that no significant variation exists between variables or that a single variable is no different than its mean. While an alternative Hypothesis (Ha) attempt to prove that a new theory is true rather than the old one. That a variable is significantly different from the mean.

Let μ represent the average financial aid package for students admitted given as $49,250.

The null hypothesis is that the average financial aid package for students admitted is equal to $49,250.

H0; μ = $49,250

The alternative hypothesis is that the average financial aid package for students admitted is not equal to $49,250.

Ha; μ ≠ $49,250

If this particular arithmetic sequence, a7=34 and a15=74. What is the value of a21
Ilya [14]
This is an arithmetic sequence, meaning, to get the next term, you simply add some value to the current one, namely the "common difference" "d".

now, we know the 17th term is 34, let's go to the 15term then

34 + d
34 + d + d
34 + d + d + d
34 + d + d + d + d
34 + d + d + d + d + d
34 + d + d + d + d + d + d
34 + d + d + d + d + d + d + d
34 + d + d + d + d + d + d + d + d

now, notice, we got to the 15th term, which is 34  + d + d + d + d + d + d + d + d, or namely 34 + 8d, it just so happen we know is 74, therefore,

\bf 34+8d=74\implies 8d=40\implies d=\cfrac{40}{8}\implies \boxed{d=5}

ok, now that we know what the common difference is, let's find the first term in the sequence using the 7th term of 34,

\bf n^{th}\textit{ term of an arithmetic sequence}\\\\
a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\qquad 
\begin{cases}
n=n^{th}\ term\\
a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\
d=\textit{common difference}\\
----------\\
n=7\\
d=5\\
a_7=34
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
a_7=a_1+(7-1)5\implies 34=a_1+(7-1)5
\\\\\\
34=a_1+30\implies \boxed{4=a_1}

and now let's use those 2 found folks, to get the 21st term,

\bf n^{th}\textit{ term of an arithmetic sequence}\\\\
a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\qquad 
\begin{cases}
n=n^{th}\ term\\
a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\
d=\textit{common difference}\\
----------\\
a_1=4\\
d=5\\
n=21
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
a_{21}=4+(21-1)5\implies a_{21}=4+100\implies a_{21}=104

One angle of a triangle measures 65°. The other two angles are in a ratio of 3:20. What are the measures of those two angles?
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

15° and 100°

Step-by-step explanation:

65 + 3x + 20x = 180

23x = 115

x = 5

3 × 5 = 15, 20 × 5 = 100. So the other two angles measure 15° and 100°.
