Answer:

a. set 1: 29 minutes; set 2: 25 minutes

b. set 1 is more challenging than set 2

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The mean is found by adding the times and dividing by the number of times. For set 1, that is ...

(2×27 +2×28 +3×29 +2×30 +33)/10 = 290/10 = 29 . . . minutes

For set 2, that is ...

(4x24 +4×25 +2×27)/10 = 250/10 = 25 . . . minutes

b. The mean of set 1 is higher, and the spread is wider, suggesting more students have more trouble with the problems of set 1. That is, ...

set 1 is more challenging than set 2

Answer:

Hi, your answer is y= $-\frac{1}{2} x$ -3

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the slope-intercept formula which is

$\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

We will use two points in this case I'll use

(-2,-2) and (-8,1)

$\frac{1-(-2)}{-8-(-2)}$ = $-\frac{3}{6}$ which can be simplified as $-\frac{1}{2}$

Your Y will be -3

which your final answer will be y=-1/2x-3

Hope this helps :)

Prove that an = 4^n + 2(-1)^nis the solution to

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

See proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to verify that if we substitute $a_n=4^n+2(-1)^n$ in the equation $a_n=3a_{n-1}+4a_{n-2}$ the equality is true.

Let's substitute first in the right hand side:

$3a_{n-1}+4a_{n-2}=3(4^{n-1}+2(-1)^{n-1})+4(4^{n-2}+2(-1)^{n-2})$

Now we use the distributive laws. Also, note that $(-1)^{n-1}=\frac{1}{-1}(-1)^n=(-1)(-1)^{n}$ (this also works when the power is n-2).

$=3(4^{n-1})+6(-1)^{n-1}+4(4^{n-2})+8(-1)^{n-2}$

$=3(4^{n-1})+(-1)(6)(-1)^{n}+4^{n-1}+(-1)^2(8)(-1)^{n}$

$=4(4^{n-1})-6(-1)^{n}+8(-1)^{n}=4^n+2(-1)^n=a_n$

then the sequence solves the recurrence relation.

6(1) = 16<br> 6(n) = b(n − 1) + 1<br> Find the 2-term in the sequence.

Tresset [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$b(1)=16\\ \\b(n)=b(n-1)+1$

Finding the second term of the sequence means to find $b(2).$ To find $b(2)$ substitute $n=2$ into the second expression:

$b(2)=b(2-1)+1\\ \\b(2)=b(1)+1\\ \\b(2)=16+1\\ \\b(2)=17$
