In this problem we need to find the value of a and b. So given that t<span>he function should be in the form f(n) = an + b and we know each value of n, then out goal is to find a and b.
For getting this purpose, we need to find a system of two equations (given that we have two unknown variables)
Therefore:
(1) f(0) = a(1) + b = 18
</span>∴ a + b = 18
<span>
(2) f(1) = a(2) + b = 24
</span>∴ 2a + b = 24<span>
Solving for a and b we have:
a = 6
b = 12
Finally:
f(n) = 6n + 12</span>
Answer:
284
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to start out multiplying the (parentheses), then the [brackets], then the {curly brackets}. After you're done with those you would add 2.
Answer:
Susanne is 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be Dakota's age
x + 3 = Susanne's age
4(x+3) = Bob's age
Sum of their age is:
x + x + 3 + 4(x + 3) =
Simplify:
x + x + 3 + 4x + 12
6x + 15 = 93
6x = 78
x = 13
Susanne is 3 more than x (13 +3) which is 16
Answer:
Decrease the sample size.
Step-by-step explanation:
Margin of error is:
ME = CV × √(σ / n)
where σ is the population standard deviation, or:
ME = CV × √(p (1 − p) / n)
where p is the proportion.
In each case, the margin of error is directly proportional to the critical value, and inversely proportional to √n.
Lowering the confidence level will lower the critical value, which will decrease the margin of error. Decreasing the sample size will increase the margin of error.
