Always find the difference in prices first.
<span>3.45 - 3.20 = $.25 difference </span>
<span>Always divide the difference by the original price. Change this number into a per cent. </span>
<span>.25/3.45 = .07246 = 7.2% decrease </span>
The <em>first</em> series uses a <em>linear</em> function with - 1 as <em>first</em> element and 1 as <em>common</em> difference, then the rule corresponding to the series is y = |- 1 + x|.
The <em>second</em> series uses a <em>linear</em> function with - 3 as <em>second</em> element as 2 as <em>common</em> difference, then the rule corresponding to the series is y = |- 3 + 2 · x|.
<h3>What is the pattern and the function behind a given series?</h3>
In this problem we have two cases of <em>arithmetic</em> series, which are sets of elements generated by a condition in the form of <em>linear</em> function and inside <em>absolute</em> power. <em>Linear</em> <em>functions</em> used in these series are of the form:
y = a + r · x (1)
Where:
- a - Value of the first element of the series.
- r - Common difference between two consecutive numbers of the series.
- x - Index of the element of the series.
The <em>first</em> series uses a <em>linear</em> function with - 1 as <em>first</em> element and 1 as <em>common</em> difference, then the rule corresponding to the series is y = |- 1 + x|.
The <em>second</em> series uses a <em>linear</em> function with - 3 as <em>second</em> element as 2 as <em>common</em> difference, then the rule corresponding to the series is y = |- 3 + 2 · x|.

That's the square, it was a fun puzzle :)
Answer:
d. 18a² - 12a
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 2x² + 4x
f(-3a) = 2(-3a)² + 4(-3a)
2(-3a)² + 4(-3a)
2(9a²) + (-12a)
18a² - 12a
Answer:
D) (3.67, 4.73)
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence Interval for the true average number of homes that a person owns in his or her lifetimecan be calculated using M±ME where
- M is the average number of home owned (4.2)
- ME is the margin of error from the mean
And margin of error (ME) can be calculated as
ME=
where
- z is the corresponding statistic in the given confidence level(1.96)
- s is the standard deviation of the sample(2.1)
- N is the sample size (60)
Putting the numbers we get ME=
≈0.53
Then the 95% confidence interval is 4.2±0.53 or (3.67, 4.73)
