Answer:

The first 5 terms are 2, 5, 8, 11, 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. You use the formula to find out each term.
  2. f(n)=3n-1 starting with n=1. If n=1 that is the 1st term, if n=2 that is the 2nd term, and so on. n means what number term it is.
  3. Now to find each term:
  • n=1: f(1)= 3(1)-1= 3-1= 2 The 1st term is 2
  • n=2: f(2)= 3(2)-1= 6-1= 5 The 2nd term is 5
  • n=3: f(3)= 3(3)-1= 9-1=8 The 3rd term is 8
  • n=4: f(4)= 4(3)-1= 12-1= 11 The 4th term is 11
  • n=5: f(5)= 5(3)-1= 15-1= 14 The 5th term is 14

So the first 5 terms are 2,5,8,11,14

An article reported that what airline passengers like to do most on long flights is rest or sleep; in a survey of 3697 passenger
slava [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The study variable is:

X: number of passengers that rest or sleep during a flight.

The sample taken is n=9 passengers and the probability of success, that is finding a passenger that either rested or sept during the flight, is p=0.80.

I'll use the binomial tables to calculate each probability, these tables give the values of accumulated probability: P(X≤x)

a. P(6)= P(X=6)

To reach the value of selecting exactly 6 passengers you have to look for the probability accumulated until 6 and subtract the probability accumulated until the previous integer:

P(X=6)= P(X≤6)-P(X≤5)= 0.2618-0.0856= 0.1762

b. P(9)= P(X=9)

To know the probability of selecting exactly 9 passengers that either rested or slept you have to do the following:

P(X≤9) - P(X≤8)= 1 - 0.8657= 0.1343

c. P(X≥6)

To know what percentage of the probability distribution is above six, you have to subtract from the total probability -1- the cumulated probability until 6 but without including it:

P(X≥6)= 1 - P(X<6)= 1 - P(X≤5)= 1 - 0.0856= 0.9144

I hope it helps!
