Given the rule: an=7(1/2)n-1 identify the first term

Mathematics

Shkiper50 [21]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

  • using the rule given: 2.5
  • using an exponential rule: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluating the linear rule given, for n = 1, we have ...

  a1 = 7(1/2)(1) -1 = 7/2 -1 = 5/2 = 2.5

_____

We suspect you may intend the exponential function ...

  an = 7(1/2)^(n-1)

Then, for n = 1, we have ...

  a1 = 7(1/2)^(1 -1) = 7(1) = 7 . . . . the first term is 7

_____

When writing an exponential expression in plain text, it requires the exponential operator, a caret (^). If the exponent contains any arithmetic, as this one does, it must be enclosed in parentheses.

In the standard Normal distribution, which z-score represents the 99th percentile?
nydimaria [60]

The Z- score representing the 99th percentile is given by 2.33

Problems of commonly distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

For a set with a standard deviation, the z-score scale X is provided by:

Z = ( x- mean )/ standard deviation

Z-score measures how many standard deviations are derived from the description. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the scale is less than X, that is, the X percentage. Subtract 1 with p-value, we get the chance that the average value is greater than X.

To Find the z-result corresponding to P99, 99 percent of the normal distribution curve.

This is the Z value where X has a p-value of 0.99. This is between 2.32 and 2.33, so the answer is Z = 2.33

What is the value of the exponential expression 36 1/2
garik1379 [7]
For this case we have an exponential expression of the form:
 36^{ \frac{1}{2}}
 We can rewrite the exponential expression using power properties.
 We have then:
 \sqrt{36}
 From here, we take the square root of 36.
 We have then:
 \sqrt{36} = 6
 Answer:
 T
he exponential function is given by:
 
36^{ \frac{1}{2}}=6
