The common ratio refers to the number that multiplies the previous term to get the next term.

For me, -2 pops out as the answer. Let's test it out.

First, multiply -2 by 3.

3 * -2 = -6

Now we have our second term and it matches up with -6 in <span>3,-6,12,-24,48.

Now multiply it again by -2.

-6 * -2 = 12

Yup, we can say -2 is the answer to this question.</span>

The following table shows the number of innings pitched by each of the Greenbury Goblins' starting pitchers during the Rockbotto
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

The number of innings Brantley pitched is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the table shows the number of innings pitched by each of the Greenbury Goblins' starting pitchers during the Rockbottom Tournament below;

         Pitcher                           Number of innings pitched

          Calvin                                            11

          Thom                                             12

          Shawn                                            7

            Kris                                               3

         Brantley                                           x

Let the number of innings Brantley pitched be 'x'.

The mean of the following data set is given by the following formula;

          Mean = \frac{\text{Sum of all data values}}{\text{Total number of observations}}

                  8 = \frac{11+12+7+3+x}{5}

                 8\times 5 =33+x

                 40 = 33+x

                  x = 40 - 33 = 7

Hence, the number of innings Brantley pitched is 7.

alex41 [277]

Answer:

cos α = 8/17

Apply Pythagoras theorem for triangle ,

Let get unknown side of triangle is y

17^2 = 8^2 + y^2

17^2 - 8^2 =  y^2

225 = y^2

y = sqrt(225)

y = 15

tan α = 15/8

The dot plots compare the number of raffle tickets sold by boys and girls during a school fund-raiser. Which plot has an outlier
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Girl's plot

Step-by-step explanation:

The exact question is as follows :

Given - The dot plots compare the number of raffle tickets sold by boys and girls during a school fund-raiser.

To find - Which plot has an outlier?

Proof -

The correct answer is - Girls

Reason -

Girls plot has an outlier because values way outside the majority of the data.

Definition of outlier -

A value that "lies outside" (is much smaller or larger than) most of the other values in a set of data.

Here in the Girl's plot we can see that, all the dots are close but there is one dot that is lies outside

But in Boy's plot all the dots are close to each other , no dot is lies outside to any other dots.

So,

The correct option is -

Girl's plot has an outlier.

A triangle has side lengths measuring 3x cm, 7x cm, and h cm. Which expression describes the possible values of h, in cm?
madreJ [45]
It would be 4x < h < 10x
the difference between 3x - 7x =4 
and the sum would be 3x + 7x =10
