Answer:

-1/4, -1/16, -1/64, -1/256, - 1/1024, -1/4096.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first 6 terms are a1, a1 r, a1r^2, a2r^3...... a1r^5.

= -1/4,   -1/4 * 1/4 ,    - 1/4* (1/4)^2,   -1/4*(1/4)^3...

= -1/4, -1/16, -1/64, -1/256, - 1/1024, -1/4096.

Suppose that y varies directly with x, and y=15 when x=24. Write a direct variation equation that relates x and y. Find y when x
Lapatulllka [165]

Just set up a proportion with the original numbers and then the numbers you want to find like so: (x1/y1)=(x2/y2) and since you want to find the second y value, just leave y as a variable like so: (15/24)=(3/y) after this just cross multiply and get the answer: 15y=72.....y=4.8

Vail Resorts pays part-time seasonal employees at ski resorts on an hourly basis. At a certain mountain, the hourly rates have a
notsponge [240]

Answer:

z=0.842

And if we solve for a we got

\mu=13.16 +0.842*3=15.69

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the hourly rates of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(\mu,3)  

For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

P(X>13.16)=0.20   (a)

P(X   (b)

Both conditions are equivalent on this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.  

As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.80 of the area on the left and 0.20 of the area on the right it's z=0.842. On this case P(Z<0.842)=0.8 and P(z>0.842)=0.20

If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:

P(X  

P(z

But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:

z=0.842

And if we solve for a we got

\mu=13.16 +0.842*3=15.69

Identify the domain and range of y = 4x - 5 + 3
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\text{Domain:}\ D=\mathbb{R}=(-\infty;\ \infty)}\\\boxed{\text{Range:}\ R=\mathbb{R}=(-\infty;\ \infty)}

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 4x - 5 + 3 = 4x - 2

It's an equation of a line in the slope-intercept form.

y = 4x - 2 → f(x) = 4x - 2 - it's a lienar function.

The domain of a linear function is the set of all real numbers.

If a slope of linear function is different than 0, then the range is the set of all real numbers.
