Step-by-step explanation:
-(9x-18)+8x
-3x+6+8x (multiply across the -1/3)

Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The n th term ( explicit formula ) of an arithmetic sequence is
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Given a₁₂ = - 95 and a₃₇ = - 270 , then
a₁ + 11d = - 95 → (1)
a₁ + 36d = - 270 → (2)
Subtract (1) from (2) term by term to eliminate a₁
25d = - 175 ( divide both sides by 25 )
d = - 7
Substitute d = - 7 into (1) and solve for a₁
a₁ + 11(- 7) = - 95
a₁ - 77 = - 95 ( add 77 to both sides )
a₁ = - 18 , thus
= - 18 - 7(n - 1) = - 18 - 7n + 7 = - 7n - 11
= - 7n - 11 ← explicit formula
--------------------------------------------------------------
The recursive formula allows a term in the sequence to be found by adding the common difference d to the previous term, thus
=
- 7 with a₁ = - 18 ← recursive formula
Using the normal distribution, the area underneath the shaded region <u>between the two z-scores</u> is given by:
C. 0.6766.
<h3>Normal Probability Distribution</h3>The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean and standard deviation
is given by:
- The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean.
- Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.
Hence, for this problem, the area is the <u>p-value of z = 0.75 subtracted by the p-value of z = -1.3</u>.
Looking at the z-table, the p-values are given as follows:
- z = 0.75: 0.7734.
- z = -1.3: 0.0968.
Then:
0.7734 - 0.0968 = 0.6766.
Which means that option C is correct.
