Step-by-step explanation:
I am not fully sure what your teacher is aiming for. it friends very much on what you were just discussing in class (which I don't know).
but the first thing coming to mind is a minus sign ("-"). squaring a negative number removed the minus and makes the result equal to squaring the same positive number.
just for the undoing the 1/2 :
that is, because a fraction as exponent specifies in its denominator the root to be calculated for the basic value or expression.
so, 1/2 means square root. and yes, square is the inverse function of a square root, and it "undoes" the square root.
in exponent calculation it just means that for exponent 1 to the power of exponent 2 we simply multiply both exponents. and so, 1/2 × 2 = 1
FYI - the numerator still represents an original "to the power of" operation.
so, e.g. 3/2 would mean put the basis to the power of 3 and then do the square root of that result. or the other way around. these operations are commutative (the sequence does not matter).
Answer:
a(4) = 15/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Here we're told that the first term is a(1) = 30 and that the common factor r = 1/2.
Thus, the geometric sequence formula specific to this case is
a(n) = 30(1/:2)^(n-1).
What is the fourth term? Let n = 4,
a(4) = 30(1/2)^(4-1), or a(4) = 30(1/2)^(3), or a(4) = 30(1/8) = 30/8, or, in reduced form,
a(4) = 15/4.
Fv=24000(1+10.44%)^15
Fv=106440.57
Given that
the weight of football players is distributed with a mean of 200 pounds and a standard deviation of 25 pounds.
And we need to find What is the minimum weight of the middle 95% of the players?
Explanation -
Using the Empirical Rule, 95% of the distribution will fall within 2 times of the standard deviation from the mean.
Two standard deviations = 2 x 25 pounds = 50 pounds
So the minimum weight = 200 pounds - 50 pounds = 150 pounds
Hence the final answer is 150 pounds.
Answer:
150
Step-by-step explanation:
30 + 30 + 45 + 45 = 150
