The given sequence is 25, 10, 4.
Notice that this is a geometric sequence because here we have equal common ratio.
So, common ratio : r =
=
= 0.4
So, each term is 0.4 times of it's previous term.
Hence, to get the next term of this sequence, multiply 0.4 with the third term 4.
So, fourth / next term = 4* 0.4 =1.6
Hence, next term of this sequence is 1.6.
Hope this helps you!
Answer:
0.0326 = 3.26% probability that a randomly selected thermometer reads between −2.23 and −1.69.
The sketch is drawn at the end.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the z-score of a measure X is given by:
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Mean of 0°C and a standard deviation of 1.00°C.
This means that
Find the probability that a randomly selected thermometer reads between −2.23 and −1.69
This is the p-value of Z when X = -1.69 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = -2.23.
X = -1.69
has a p-value of 0.0455
X = -2.23
has a p-value of 0.0129
0.0455 - 0.0129 = 0.0326
0.0326 = 3.26% probability that a randomly selected thermometer reads between −2.23 and −1.69.
