The question as presented is incomplete, here is the complete question with the multiple choice:
The sequence a1 = 6, an = 3an − 1 can also be
written as:
1) an = 6 ⋅ 3^n
2) an = 6 ⋅ 3^(n + 1)
3) an = 2 ⋅ 3^n
4) an = 2 ⋅ 3^(n + 1)
The correct choice is option 3) an = 2⋅3^n.
If we look at the initial sequence an = 3⋅an-1, and
a1 = 3⋅a0 = 6
a0 = 6/3
a0 = 2
We can now look at the sequence.
a0 = 2
a1 = 6
a2 = 18
a3 = 54
etc...
A common factor in each of those numbers is 2, so we can rewrite the sequence by factoring out 2.
a0 = 2⋅1
a1 = 2⋅3
a2 = 2⋅9
a3 = 2⋅27
The numbers being multiplied by 2 are all factors of 3. So we can rewrite the sequence again as:
a0 = 2⋅3^0
a1 = 2⋅3^1
a2 = 2⋅3^2
a3 = 2⋅3^3
This sequence can now be rewritten as an = 2⋅3^n.
I would round them so it would be 500 divided by 20
The answer should be close to 25
The slope is rise over run
3/5
Seems like you are an imposter ;). This is Middle School math.
Anyways...
Answer:
x>6
Step-by-step explanation:
-4x-12<12
Add 12 on both sides.
-4x<24
Divide both sides by -4 to isolate x. Remember that if you are dividing by a negative, flip the sign!
x>6
Hope this helps!
Answer:
a)
90% confidence interval for the mean grading time of all composition papers.
(12.47981 , 13.52019)
b)
Appropriate inequality
The interval is ( 12.47981 < μ < 13.52019)
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>Explanation</em></u>:-
a)
Given sample size 'n' = 40
Mean of the sample = 13 minutes
standard deviation = 2 min
level of significance = 0.10 or 90%
90% confidence interval for the mean grading time of all composition papers.
( 13 - 0.52019 , 13 + 0.52019)
(12.47981 , 13.52019)
b)
The interval is ( 12.47981 < μ < 13.52019)
