Answer:

r = 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

S_∞ = a/(1 – r)

A geometric series has first term 2 and sum to infinity 5.

1)Find the common ratio.

= S_∞ = a/(1 – r)

5 = 2/1 - r

Cross Multiply

5(1 - r) = 2

5 - 5r = 2

5 - 2 = 5r

r = 5 - 2/5

r = 3/5

2)Find the sum of the first 10 terms of the series.

The sum of the first 10 terms =

Approximate the square root of 12 to the nearest integer helppppppp!!!!!!!!

oee [108]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Well the square root of 12 is 3.464 and 12 squared is 144, and an intiger is a whole number no decimal or fraction. So round 3.464 to the nearest whole is 3. Hope this helps(:

Darren wants to estimate the mean age in a population of trees. He'll sample nnn trees and build a 90\%90%90, percent confidence

Alchen [17]

Using the z-distribution, as we have the standard deviation for the population, it is found that the smallest sample size required to obtain the desired margin of error is of 77.

<h3>What is a z-distribution confidence interval?</h3>

The confidence interval is:

$\overline{x} \pm z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which:

$\overline{x}$ is the sample mean.

z is the critical value.

n is the sample size.

$\sigma$ is the standard deviation for the population.

The margin of error is given by:

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In this problem, we have that the parameters are given as follows:

$M = 3, z = 1.645, \sigma = 16$ .

Hence, solving for n, we find the sample size.

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$3 = 1.645\frac{16}{\sqrt{n}}$

$3\sqrt{n} = 1.645 \times 16$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.645 \times 16}{3}$

$(\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{1.645 \times 16}{3}\right)^2$

$n = 76.97$

Rounding up, the smallest sample size required to obtain the desired margin of error is of 77.

Given that f(x) = x2 – 12x + 27 and g(x) = x – 9, find (f.g)(x) and express

nikklg [1K]

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x) = {x}^{2} - 12x + 27 \\ g(x) = x - 9 \\ (f \times g)(x) = ( {x}^{2} - 12x + 27)(x - 9) \\ (f \times g)(x) = {x}^{3} - 9 {x}^{2} - 12 {x}^{2} + 108x + 27x - 243 \\ (f \times g)(x) = {x}^{3} - 21 {x}^{2} + 135x - 243$
