Answer:

"The next term should be 11"

Step-by-step explanation:

If we look closely at the sequence we can see:

second term is 3 more than previous

third term is 2 less than previous

fourth term is 3 more than previous

fifth term is 2 less than previous

We can see a pattern. To get next terms, we add 3, to get next to that, we subtract 2. It goes on like this.

Since 4th term to 5th term is "subtracting 2", logically 5th to 6th term (the term we are wanting) should be "add 3". So the term after 8 would be 11

The next term would be 11

When the components arrive, the company selects a random sample from the shipment and subjects the selected components to a rigo

Ghella [55]

Answer:

(0.059, 0.133)

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size = n = 250

Number of units which failed the test = x = 24

Proportion of units which failed the test = $\frac{x}{n} = \frac{24}{250} =\frac{12}{125}$ = 0.096

Proportion of units which did not fail the test = q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.096 = 0.904

Confidence level = 95%

z-value for the confidence level = z = 1.96

The true proportion of the components that fail to meet the specification would be:

$(p-z\sqrt{\frac{p \times q}{n}} , p+z\sqrt{\frac{p \times q}{n}})$

Using the values, we get:

$(0.096-1.96 \times \sqrt{\frac{0.096 \times 0.904}{250}} , 0.096+1.96 \times \sqrt{\frac{0.096 \times 0.904}{250}})\\\\ =(0.059,0.133)$

Thus, 95% confidence interval estimate for the true proportion of components, p, that fail to meet the specifications is (0.059, 0.133)

To determine a student’s overall test score for the semester, Ms. Lopez throws out the lowest test score and takes the average o

Ugo [173]

Answer:

80%

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming you want the average of the class.

62 + 78 + 83 + 84 + 93

= 400

400/5

= 80

Therefore Victor's overall test score is 80%
