A geometric sequence is a sequence with a common ratio multiplied by previous term to give the next. Lets call x the common ratio, so we know that 4 was multiplied by x to give the second term, and so forth until it was multiplied again and again by x until the 16384 was reached which happens to be the 13th term, that means that 4x was multiplied by x 12 more times to give 16384, that is:
4x^12 = 16384
x^12 = 4096
x = 4096^-12
x = 4.48 x 10^-44
that is the common ratio

Give each rate in miles per hour:
DIA [1.3K]

a) 9/212 = #mph

b)0.000142045 Miles / 0.000277778 hours = # mph

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 9/212 = #mph

b)

1)9 inches divide the length value by 63360 is 0.000142045 Miles

2) 1 hour  3600 seconds in ones hour so 1/3600 =0.000277778

3) take miles/hour

0.000142045 Miles / 0.000277778 hours = # mph

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

U₂₁ and U₂₂ fits in the line of upper triangular

Step-by-step explanation:

As explain in the question

An upper triangular matric is square matrix with all zeros below its daignal. A lower triangular matrix is a square matrix with all zeros above its diagonal.

(as shown in the attached image)

(a)for all 3×3 upper triangular matirices U, verify that U2 is also upper triangular

for a matrices U (having a 3*3 matrix), assuming for example, U is given below:

U = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&2&3\\0&5&6\\0&0&9\end{array}\right]

the element in the upper triangular are 1,2,3,5,6,9 (U₁₁, U₁₂, U₁₃; , U₂₂, U₂₃, U₂₂)

while lower triangular are 0,0,0, the element in the lower triangular are (U₂₁, U₃₁,U₃₂)

U₂₁ and U₂₂ fits in the line of upper triangular

The calculation of the mean of a population and the expected value of the probability mass function of a Random Variable (RV) ar
Zanzabum

Answer: Hello the options related to your question is missing attached below are the missing options.

A.) The probabilities of the RVs may be equal

B.) The sum of the probabilities of the RVs exceed 1

C.) This is an impossible occurrence

D.) The probabilities of the RVs must be equal

E.) None of the above

answer:

The probabilities of the RVs may be equal ( A )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the value of the  population mean and the value of probability mass function of a set of random variables are similar

For the Random Variables : 100,200,300,400

The Probability mass function of RV = ( 100 + 200 + 300 + 400 ) / 4

Hence  The probabilities of the RVs may be equal
