Answer:
A: an = 6n - 9
Step-by-step explanation:
third term in an arithmetic sequence is 9
a3 = a + 2d
a + 2d = 9
the fifth term is 21
a5 = a + 4d
a + 4d = 21
a + 2d = 9 (1)
a + 4d = 21 (2)
Subtract (1) from (2) to eliminate a
4d - 2d = 21 - 9
2d = 12
d = 12/2
d = 6
Substitute d = 6 into (1)
a + 2d = 9 (1)
a + 2(6) = 9
a + 12 = 9
a = 9 - 12
a = -3
nth term of this sequence = a + (n - 1)d
= -3 + (n - 1)6
= -3 + 6n - 6
= 6n - 9
an = 6n - 9

Answer:
1.6%
Step-by-step explanation:
The cumulative distribution function (CDF) of a random variable X is denoted by F(x), and is defined as
F(x) = P(X ≤ x). where x is the largest possible value of X that is less than or equal to x
z = (x-μ)/σ,
where:
x is the raw score = 205
μ is the population mean, = 220 pounds
σ is the population standard deviation = 7 pounds
205 -220/7
z = -15/7
z = -2.1428571429
Using the normal cdf function on your graphing calculator,the cumulative distribution is
normalcdf( -2.1428571429, 100)
= 0.01606229
In percent form = 0.01606229 × 100
= 1.6%
