\bf a_n=2\cdot a_{n-1}  is just a notation way to say, "the nth term will be found by multiplying 2 times the term right before"

so, if you want to find the 27th term, just see what the 26th term is, 2 * "26th term value" and that's the 27th term

a_1 simply means, the first term in the geometric sequence

is a geometric sequnce, because is "multiplying something" to get to the next term, if it were adding something, it'd be an arithmetic sequence

so, we know the first term is 4, and the multiplier or "common ratio" is 2
is given in the a_n= part

thus    \bf \begin{array}{crllll}
term&value\\
\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash&\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\\
a_1&4\\
a_2&2\cdot 4\\
a_3&2\cdot 2\cdot 4\\
a_4&2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 4\\
a_5&2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 4\\
a_6&2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 4
\end{array}

Evaluate (-2 4/5)-(-1 5/6)​
iragen [17]

Answer:

(-29)/30

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

-(2 + 4/5) + (1 + 5/6)

Put 2 + 4/5 over the common denominator 5. 2 + 4/5 = (5×2)/5 + 4/5:

-(5×2)/5 + 4/5 + 1 + 5/6

5×2 = 10:

-(10/5 + 4/5) + 1 + 5/6

10/5 + 4/5 = (10 + 4)/5:

-(10 + 4)/5 + 1 + 5/6

10 + 4 = 14:

-14/5 + 1 + 5/6

Put (-14)/5 + 1 + 5/6 over the common denominator 30. (-14)/5 + 1 + 5/6 = (6 (-14))/30 + 30/30 + (5×5)/30:

(6 (-14))/30 + 30/30 + (5×5)/30

6 (-14) = -84:

(-84)/30 + 30/30 + (5×5)/30

5×5 = 25:

(-84)/30 + 30/30 + 25/30

-84/30 + 30/30 + 25/30 = (-84 + 30 + 25)/30:

(-84 + 30 + 25)/30

Rashid [163]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the lengths of a particular​ animal's pregnancies

X is N(252, 20)

​(a) What proportion of pregnancies lasts more than 262 ​days? ​

P(X>262) = 0.3085

(b) What proportion of pregnancies lasts between 227 and 257 ​days?

P(227

​(c) What is the probability that a randomly selected pregnancy lasts no more than 237 ​days?

P(X<237) = 0.2266

​(d) A​ "very preterm" baby is one whose gestation period is less than 202 days. Are very preterm babies​ unusual?

P(X

Yes very unusual since probability is very near to 0.
