Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

we see a1 = 6.

that is the starting value. everything else then (to generate the new sequence elements) is added to this.

so, B and C are out.

and clearly, for every new sequence element we add -3. and we do this for every sequence element except for a1. so we add -3 (n-1) times.

therefore, only D is correct.

Answer:

55% percentage mark up

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula = Gross profit / Cost of item * 100 First we find the Cost of item = 39.99 / 06 = 66.65 as 66.65 * 0.60 = 39.99 then we find the Gross profit 66.65 - 29.99 = 36.66 then plug into the formula 36.66/66.65 * 100 =55.0037509% = 55%

Sergio is working on a research project involving the ages of students at Brooklyn College. After interviewing 500 students, he

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

The probability of of a randomly chosen student being exactly 21 years old.

= 1.293

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given Population size n = 500

Mean of the Population = 20 years and 6 months

= $20 + \frac{6}{12} = 20 +0.5 = 20.5 years$

Standard deviation of the Population = 2 years

Let 'X' be the range of ages of the students on campus follows a normal distribution

Let x =21

$Z = \frac{x-mean}{S.D}$

$Z = \frac{x-mean}{S.D} = \frac{21-20.6}{2} =0.2$

The probability of a randomly chosen student being exactly 21 years old.

P( Z≤21) = 0.5 + A( 0.2)

= 0.5 +0.793

= 1.293

You pay $2.40 for 3/4 pound of grapes your friend buys a pound of grapes at the same time and estimates that he will pay $1.80 w

LenKa [72]

I would say your friends assumption is wrong. Why?

Because, if you payed $2.40 for 3/4 pounds of grapes, your friend should pay more for an entire pound, not less.

Hope this helped! c:

16 ) GO...

a) 5487 × ( 65 + 35 ) = 5487 × 100 = 548700

------------------------------------------------------

b) 647 × ( 112 - 12 ) = 647 × 100 = 64700

------------------------------------------------------

c) 502 × 1,008 = ( 500 + 2 ) ( 1,000 + 8 ) = 500,000 + 4,000 + 2,000 + 16 = 506,016

____________________________

17 ) Go...

a) 585 × 16 × 625 = 585 × 4 × 4 × 25 × 25 = 585 × 4 × 25 × 4 × 25 = 585 × 100 × 100 = 5,850,000

------------------------------------------------------

b) 147 × 50 × 2 = 147 × 100 = 14,700

____________________________

18) Go...

look : 1729 = ( 1400 + 329 ) = 7 × 200 + 7 × 47 = 7 ( 200 + 47 ) = 7 × 247 = 7 × 13 × 19

____________________________

19) Go...

look : 96 = 16 × 6 = 2⁴ × 2 × 3 = 2⁵ × 3

Thus ;

the factors are : ( 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 6 , 8 , 12 , 16 , 24 , 32 , 48 , 96 )
