Answer:

78

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

First day (a) = 1

1 more pebble every subsequent day than the previous day

Tn = a + (n - 1)d

d = common difference ; difference between pebbles in two successive days = 1

n = nth day

At the end of the 12th day;

Tn = a + (n - 1)d

T(12) = 1 + (12 - 1) 1

T(12) = 1 + 11

T(12) = 12

Appling the sun if arithmetic progression formula : Sum of AP:

n/2 (a + Tn)

n = number of terms

12/2 (1 + 12)

6(13)

= 78

Lauren is sewing a quilt using fabric squares.
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

x^2 + 8x + 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given length of square x + 4.

Area of square with side S is given by S^2.

Therefore are of square with side x + 4 is given by (x + 4)^2

Area of square = (x + 4)^2\\=>(x + 4)*(x + 4)\\=> x(x + 4) + 4(x + 4)\\=> x^2 + 4x + 4x + 4*4\\=>  x^2 + 8x + 16

Thus, x2 + 8x + 16 expression represents the area of a fabric square.

Use the normal distribution to find a confidence interval for a proportion p given the relevant sample results. Give the best po
Brrunno [24]

Answer: (0.63, 7.07)

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for population proportion is given by :-

\hat{p}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

Given :\hat{p} =0.7 ;  n=110

Significance level : 1-0.90=0.1

Critical value :  z_{\alpha/2}=1.645

Now, a 90% confidence interval for population proportion will be :-

0.7\pm (1.645)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.7(1-0.7)}{110}}\\\\\approx0.7\pm0.07\\\\=(0.7-0.07,0.7+0.07)=(0.63,\ 7.07)

Hence, a 90% confidence interval for population proportion = (0.63, 7.07)

Rewrite 2x+5y=3 using function notation​
marishachu [46]

Answer:

Given f(x) = x2 + 3x – 1, find

a) f(1)

b) f(–1)

c) f(a)

d) f(x – 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

a) f(1) = (1)2 + 3(1) – 1 = 3

b) f(–1) = (–1)2 + 3(–1) – 1 = –3

c) f(a) = a2 + 3a – 1

d) f(x – 1) = (x – 1)2 + 3(x – 1) – 1

= x2 – 2x + 1 + 3x – 3 – 1 = x2 + x –3
