A. What is the explicit definition for this sequence?<br><br>b. How far does she run on day 19?

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

(a) $a_n=1+\frac{1}{6}(n-1)$

(b) 4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The sequence of run is an arithmetic sequence.

Miles traveled on day 1 = 1 mile

Miles traveled on day 7 = 2 miles

(a).

Explicit formula for an arithmetic sequence is given as:

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\a_n\to n^{th}\ term\\a_1\to first\ term\\n\to number\ of\ terms\\d\to \textrm{common difference}$

Here, $a_1=1,a_7=2$

So,

$a_7=a_1+(7-1)d\\2=1+6d\\6d=2-1\\d=\frac{1}{6}$

Therefore, the explicit definition of the above sequence is given as:

$a_n=1+\frac{1}{6}(n-1)$

Where, $a_n$ is the miles covered on $n^{th}$ day.

(b)

In order to find the distance covered by her on day 19, we plug in 19 for n in the above formula. This gives,

$a_{19}=1+\frac{1}{6}(19-1)\\\\a_{19}=1+\frac{1}{6}(18)\\\\a_{19}=1+3=4\ mi$

Therefore, the number of miles covered by her on day 19 is 4 miles.

A book is 0.33 meters long. How many millimeters long is it?

Phoenix [80]

we know that

$1\ meter=1,000\ millimeters$

so

by proportion

Find how many millimeters are in $0.33$ meters

$\frac{1,000}{1} \frac{mm}{m} =\frac{x}{0.33} \frac{mm}{m} \\ \\x=1,000*0.33 \\ \\ x=330\ mm$

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

$330\ mm$

A random sample of 20 recent weddings in a country yielded a mean wedding cost of $ 26,388.67. Assume that recent wedding costs

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

a) 95% confidence interval for the meancost, μ, of all recent weddings in this country = (22,550.95, 30,226.40)

.The 95% confidence interval is from $22,550.95 to $30,226.40.

b) For the interpretation of the result, option D is correct.

We can be 95% confident that the mean cost, μ, of all recent weddings in this country is somewhere within the confidence interval.

c) Option B is correct.

The population mean may or may not lie in this interval, but we can be 95% confident that it does.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size = 20

Sample Mean = $26,388.67

Sample Standard deviation = $8200

Confidence Interval for the population mean is basically an interval of range of values where the true population mean can be found with a certain level of confidence.

Mathematically,

Confidence Interval = (Sample mean) ± (Margin of error)

Sample Mean = 26,388.67

Margin of Error is the width of the confidence interval about the mean.

It is given mathematically as,

Margin of Error = (Critical value) × (standard Error of the mean)

Critical value will be obtained using the t-distribution. This is because there is no information provided for the population mean and standard deviation.

To find the critical value from the t-tables, we first find the degree of freedom and the significance level.

Degree of freedom = df = n - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19.

Significance level for 95% confidence interval

(100% - 95%)/2 = 2.5% = 0.025

t (0.025, 19) = 2.086 (from the t-tables)

Standard error of the mean = σₓ = (σ/√n)

σ = standard deviation of the sample = 8200

n = sample size = 20

σₓ = (8200/√20) = 1833.6

99% Confidence Interval = (Sample mean) ± [(Critical value) × (standard Error of the mean)]

CI = 26,388.67 ± (2.093 × 1833.6)

CI = 26,388.67 ± 3,837.7248

99% CI = (22,550.9452, 30,226.3948)

99% Confidence interval = (22,550.95, 30,226.40)

a) 95% confidence interval for the meancost, μ, of all recent weddings in this country = (22,550.95, 30,226.40)

.The 95% confidence interval is from $22,550.95 to $30,226.40.

b) The interpretation of the confidence interval obtained, just as explained above is that we can be 95% confident that the mean cost, μ,of all recent weddings in this country is somewhere within the confidence interval

c) A further explanation would be that the population mean may or may not lie in this interval, but we can be 95% confident that it does.

Hope this Helps!!!
