Answer:

f(n) = 2n - 3 describes the arithmetic sequence,

-1, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13,.......

Step-by-step explanation:

Function:

A function is like a machine that gives an output for a given input.

A function has an independent variable which is called the input of the function.

The output for a given input is called the dependent variable.

Here. 'n' is the independent variable

f(n) is the function dependent variable i.e function of n as an output.

For Arithmetic sequence

a_{n}= a_{1} + (n-1)d

Where

a_{n} = nth number of the sequence.

a₁ = First term

d = common difference = a₂ - a₁ = a₃ - a₂ = so on

For a function which describes Arithmetic sequence,

a₁ = -1

d = 1 - -1 =2

∴ f(n) = a₁ + (n -1 )d

substituting the values we get

∴ f(n) = -1 +(n-1)2

using distributive property

∴ f(n) = - 1 +  2n - 2

∴ f(n) = 2n - 3  ..........is the required function

A normally distributed population has mean 57,800 and standard deviation 750. Find the probability that a single randomly select
Stels [109]

Answer:

(a) Probability that a single randomly selected element X of the population is between 57,000 and 58,000 = 0.46411

(b) Probability that the mean of a sample of size 100 drawn from this population is between 57,000 and 58,000 = 0.99621

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a normally distributed population has mean 57,800 and standard deviation 75, i.e.; \mu = 57,800  and  \sigma = 750.

Let X = randomly selected element of the population

The z probability is given by;

           Z = \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} ~ N(0,1)  

(a) So, P(57,000 <= X <= 58,000) = P(X <= 58,000) - P(X < 57,000)

P(X <= 58,000) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} <= \frac{58000-57800}{750} ) = P(Z <= 0.27) = 0.60642

P(X < 57000) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{57000-57800}{750} ) = P(Z < -1.07) = 1 - P(Z <= 1.07)

                                                          = 1 - 0.85769 = 0.14231

Therefore, P(31 < X < 40) = 0.60642 - 0.14231 = 0.46411 .

(b) Now, we are given sample of size, n = 100

So, Mean of X, X bar = 57,800 same as before

But standard deviation of X, s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } = \frac{750}{\sqrt{100} } = 75

The z probability is given by;

           Z = \frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } ~ N(0,1)  

Now, probability that the mean of a sample of size 100 drawn from this population is between 57,000 and 58,000 = P(57,000 < X bar < 58,000)

P(57,000 <= X bar <= 58,000) = P(X bar <= 58,000) - P(X bar < 57,000)

P(X bar <= 58,000) = P( \frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } <= \frac{58000-57800}{\frac{750}{\sqrt{100} } } ) = P(Z <= 2.67) = 0.99621

P(X < 57000) = P( \frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } < \frac{57000-57800}{\frac{750}{\sqrt{100} } } ) = P(Z < -10.67) = P(Z > 10.67)

This probability is that much small that it is very close to 0

Therefore, P(57,000 < X bar < 58,000) = 0.99621 - 0 = 0.99621 .

Answer this please im giving brainliest
Colt1911 [192]
Since the question says she plans to work "more than" the hours last month, it is h>74.25 (second choice down). If it said "more than or equal to," it would be the third option down.

ANSWER: h>74.25 (second choice down)

Hope this helps! :)

A 24 foot flagpole casts a 20 foot shadow of the building next to it is an 85 foot shadow find the height of the building
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer: 102 foot / feet tall

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to find the unit rate . . . what is 24 divided by 20 ? 1.2/1

Second, multiply . . . what is 1.2 x 85 ? 102

( sorry if this is wrong - I forgot how to do the second part for a sec )

Suppose that 13 inches of wire costs 52 cents. At the same rate, how many inches of wire can be bought for 32 cents?
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

So we have a ratio which you have specified 13:52. So we just need to get the same ratio for 13. 32/52 is how we get 32 from multiplying by 52. So now we just need to multiply it for 13 also'

13*32/52 = 8. Therefore the answer to this is 8
