Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadratic sequence is a form. of mathematical progression of numbers in which the subsequent differences between each consecutive term differ by the exact amount. This is known as the common second difference.

Hence in this case,

we have

S= 3+8+15+24+…..+Tn - 1.

S=. 3+8+15+……………..Tn-1 + Tn

Deducting 2nd series from the first

We have 0=3+5+7+…….Tn

Hence, we have Tn= n (n+2)

= 24 (9+2)

= 24 + 11

= 35

An airline is planning its staffing needs for the next year. If a new route is approved, it will hire 837 new employees. If a n

dusya [7]

Considering a discrete distribution, it is found that the expected number of new employees to be hired by the airline is of 446.16.

<h3>What is the mean of a discrete distribution?</h3>

The expected value of a discrete distribution is given by the <u>sum of each outcome multiplied by it's respective probability</u>.

In this problem, considering the situation described in the text, the distribution is given by:

P(X = 837) = 0.37.

P(X = 199) = 0.63.

Hence, the expected value is given by:

E(X) = 0.37(867) + 0.63(199) = 446.16.

The points (1,2),(1,-3),and (5,-3) form a triangle on the coordinate plane. b. What is the perimeter of the triangle?

Alexeev081 [22]

The perimeter of the triangle is 13.56 units.

The perimeter of a shape on a coordinate plane is found by finding the distance between all points, and then adding them together. It's easier to write it out than to type so I'll attach a photo of my work.
