From the explicit formula:
an=3+(n-1)8
simplifying this we get:
an=3+8n-8
an=8n-5
thus 
the recursive formula is:
an=an-1+
the missing part is the common difference which is 8

54% of U.S. adults have very little confidence in newspapers. You randomly select 10 U.S. adults. Find the probability
Degger [83]

Part B is not clear and the clear one is;

P(X ≥ 6)

Answer:

A) 0.238

B) 0.478

C) 0.114

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we will make use of binomial probability formula;

P(X = x) = nCx × p^(x)•(1 - p) ^(n - x)

A) 54% of U.S. adults have very little confidence in newspapers. Thus;

p = 0.54

10 random adults are selected. Thus;

P(X = 5) = 10C5 × 0.54^(5) × (1 - 0.54)^(10 - 5)

P(X = 5) = 0.238

B) P(X ≥ 6) = P(6) + P(7) + P(8) + P(9) + P(10)

From online binomial probability calculator, we have;

P(X ≥ 6) = 0.2331 + 0.1564 + 0.0688 + 0.01796 + 0.0021 = 0.47836 ≈ 0.478

C) P(x<4) = P(3) + P(2) + P(1) + P(0)

Again with online binomial probability calculations, we have;

P(x<4) = 0.1141 ≈ 0.114

Find the area of the square rug if it is side is (7X +4) feet.
likoan [24]

Answer:

49x^{2}+56x+16 ft squared.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, so we are given that we have a rug that has a side of 7x+4 feet. With this information, we are able to determine the area of the square rug. Considering that it is a square rug, all the sides are equal to each other because a square has four equal sides and angles.

To solve this, you can do it in two ways.

One, write it as (7x+4)2. That 2 is supposed to represent squared.

If you know the rule, this is a perfect square trinomial.

The formula is a squared plus 2ab plus b squared. 7 and 4 are your a and b values. 7x squared is 49x squared and 4 squared is 16.

2ab, multiply 2 times 7x times 4. That is 56x.

Therefore, the area is 49xsquared plus 56x+16.

Another way is to write it like this (7x+4) (7x+4).

Since it is an exponent, we are multiplying the same thing two times. Apply the Distributive Property.

E.G. 2(x+5)= 2x+10.

With this, you are distributing two numbers into another two numbers. 7x times 7x is 49x squared and 7x times 4 is 28x. Then, go to 4. 4 times 7x is also 28 x and 4 times 4 is 16. Now, combine the like terms. 49x squared plus 28x plus 28x or 56x plus 16.

This represents your area.

I hope this helps, and I hope you have a good day!
