Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In a geometric sequence you are just multiplying basically. To go from 36 to 24, you multiply by 2/3, and the same will be with the next term. When you multiply 24 by 2/3 you get 16.

Solve: 4x - 2x + 6 = x + 12 A) x = 6 B) x = 2 C) no solution D) x = −6

Kitty [74]

Answer:

A) x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

4x - 2x + 6 = x + 12

Combine like terms

2x +6 = x+12

Subtract 6 from each side

2x+6-6 = x+12-6

2x = x+6

subtract x

2x-x = x+6-x

x = 6

five consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence have a sum of 40. The product of the middle and the two end terms is 224. Find

ratelena [41]

Let the five terms be: a, a + d, a + 2d, a + 3d, a + 4d, then
a + a + d + a + 2d + a + 3d + a + 4d = 5a + 15d = 40
i.e. a + 3d = 8
Also, (a + 2d)(a + 3d)(a + 4d) = 224
(a + 3d - d)(a + 3d)(a + 3d + d) = 224
(8 - d)(8)(8 + d) = 224
(8 - d)(8 + d) = 224/8 = 28
64 - d^2 = 28
d^2 = 64 - 28 = 36
d = sqrt(36) = 6
But a + 3d = 8
a + 3(6) = 8
a = 8 - 18 = -10

Therefore, the term of the sequence is: -10, -10 + 6, -10 + 2(6), -10 + 3(6), -10 + 4(6)
= -10, -4, -10 + 12, -10 + 18, -10 + 24
= -10, -4, 2, 8, 14

Data is collected to perform the following the hypothesis test:

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

option f is right

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that data is collected to perform the following hypothesis test.

$H_0: \mu = 5.5\\H_a: \mu >5.5$

(right tailed test)

Sample mean = 5.4

p value = 0.1034

when p value = 0.1034 we normally accept null hypothesis. i.e chances of null hypothesis true is the probability of obtaining test results at least as extreme as the results actually observed during the test, assuming that the null hypothesis is correct

f) If the mean µ does not differ significantly from 5.5 (that is, if the null hypothesis is true), then the probability of obtaining a sample mean y as far or farther from 5.5 than 5.4 is .1034.
