A florist wants to determine if a new additive would extend the life of cut flowers longer than the original additive. The flori

st randomly selects 20 carnations from the ones recently delivered by the greenhouse and places the first 10 in water with the new additive and remaining 10 in water with the original additive. After three weeks, 6 carnations placed in the new additive still looked healthy and 2 carnations placed in the original additive still looked healthy. The proportion of healthy carnations with the new additive was significantly greater than the proportion of healthy carnations with the original additive.
Which of the following is a valid conclusion?

Conclusions about cause and effect for the additives can be made, because the florist randomly selected the 20 carnations; additionally, inferences can be made about the population of carnations at the greenhouse.
Conclusions about cause and effect for the additives cannot be made, because the florist did not randomly assign the 20 carnations; however, inferences can be made about the population of carnations at the greenhouse, because the sample was random.

Write the series using summation notation.<br><br> 4 + 8 + 12 + 16 + 20+ . . . + 80
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

\sum ^{20} _{n \to \11} 4n

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to write the series using the summation notation, first we need to find the nth term of the sequence formed. The sequence generated by the series is an arithmetic sequence as shown;

4, 8, 12, 16, 20...80

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as Tn = a +(n-1)d

a is the first term = 4

d is the common difference = 21-8 = 8-4 = 4

n is the number of terms

On substituting, Tn = 4+(n-1)4

Tn = 4+4n-4

Tn = 4n

The nth term of the series is 4n.

Since the last term is 80, L = 4n

80 = 4n

n = 80/4

n = 20

This shows that the total number of terms in the sequence is 20

According to the series given 4 + 8 + 12 + 16 + 20+ . . . + 80 , we are to take the sum of the first 20terms of the sequence. Using summation notation;

4 + 8 + 12 + 16 + 20+ . . . + 80  = \sum ^{20} _{n \to \11} 4n
