$a = 10000$

$r = 0.4 = 4/10 = 2/5$

$a_9 = ar^8 = 10000 × 2^8/5^8$

$a_9 = 10000 × 256/(25 × 25 × 25 × 25)$

$a_9 = 6.5536$

In a test of a gender-selection technique, results consisted of 229 baby girls and 7 baby boys. Based on this result, what is

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

I'm pretty sure that the answer would be 229/236.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so. Since the results of the test is 229 for a girl and the results for a boy is 7. So i'm pretty sure what to do is combine both the results and keep that as the denominator. And then the numerator will be the result. So in this case the numerator would be 229 and the denominator would be 236.

I hope this helped, have a great day!!!

Answer:

The required equation is: $\mathbf{f(x)=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{29}{4}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find equation from the table given

We can write equation in the form of $y=mx+b$

where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

Finding Slope

We can used the slope formula to find slope: $Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

From the table we have: $x_1=3, y_1=-5, x_2=7, y_2=-2$

Putting values and finding slope

$Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Slope=\frac{-2-(-5)}{7-3} \\Slope=\frac{-2+5}{7-3}\\Slope=\frac{3}{4}$

So, we get slope $m=\frac{3}{4}$

Now, finding y-intercept

Using the slope $m=\frac{3}{4}$ and point (3,-5) we can find y-intercept

$y=mx+b\\-5=\frac{3}{4}(3)+b\\-5=\frac{9}{4}+b\\b=-5-\frac{9}{4}\\b=\frac{-5*4-9}{4}\\b=\frac{-20-9}{4}\\b=\frac{-29}{4}$

The y-intercept is $b=\frac{-29}{4}$

So, the equation having slope $m=\frac{3}{4}$ and y-intercept $b=\frac{-29}{4}$ will be:

$y=mx+b\\y=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{29}{4}$

The required equation is: $\mathbf{f(x)=\frac{3}{4}x-\frac{29}{4}}$

You are preparing a chemical hazard label for a new product. you know that the product is flammable. what pictogram should be on

lilavasa [31]

A graphic logo that depicts the meaning of any warning or sign through pictorial illustrations is called a pictogram. It can be used in chemicals, laboratories, geography or tourism. The label should have: Flammable and Health Hazard!

<h3>What is a pictogram?</h3>

The pictogram can be explained as: According to the above description, the label sign should have a warning sign of flammable as it can catch and cause fire, a health hazard as it can cause corrosion, carcinogenic and irritation followed by an exclamation mark.

The flammable sign depicts that the substance can cause and catch fires also it can contain pyrophoric. It is cancer-causing, respiratory irritant and toxic hence is hazardous to health.

The exclamation mark is used at the end of the sentence for showing awareness and to convey the meaning of the sign.

Therefore, Flammable and Health Hazard! the sign should be used.
