Answer:

$a=-3$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$a-2=\frac{3+6a}{3}$

Solve for a

That means ----> Isolate the variable a

Factor 3 in the numerator right side

$a-2=\frac{3(1+2a)}{3}$

Simplify right side

$a-2=1+2a$

subtract a both sides

$a-2-a=1+2a-a$

$-2=1+a$

subtract 1 both sides

$-2-1=1+a-1$

$-3=a$

Rewrite

$a=-3$

A garrison of 400men had food for 40days.After 10 days,200 more men joined them .How long will the food last now?(Assume that th

mestny [16]

Let $x$ be the amount of food needed for one man for one day. At the beginning, we have enough food for 400 men for 40 days, i.e.

$400\cdot 40\cdot x = 16000x$

After 10 days, the 400 men will have consumed

$400\cdot 10\cdot x = 4000x$

food, impliying that the food remaining is

$16000x-4000x=12000x$

If 200 more men join the garrison, there are now 600 men. Each of them requires $x$ food each day, and there are $12000x$ units of food remaining. They will last

$\dfrac{12000x}{600}=20$ days.

You are planning a survey of starting salaries for recent computer science majors. In a recent survey by the National Associatio

Answer:

A sample size of 554 is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1 - \alpha$ .

That is z with a pvalue of $1 - 0.025 = 0.975$ , so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

Standard deviation is known to be $12,000

This means that $\sigma = 12000$

What sample size do you need to have a margin of error equal to $1000, with 95% confidence?

This is n for which M = 1000. So

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$1000 = 1.96\frac{12000}{\sqrt{n}}$

$1000\sqrt{n} = 1.96*12$

Dividing both sides by 1000:

$\sqrt{n} = 1.96*12$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = (1.96*12)^2$

$n = 553.2$

Rounding up:

A sample size of 554 is needed.

hammer [34]

Answer:

a₁ = 1; r = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

a₁ represents the first term. It is 1 in this case.

r represents the common ratio between terms. In this case it's 3 / 1 = 3.
