Answer:

7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term Tₙ = n(n-4) /n+3.

The 1st term T₁ = 1(1 - 4)/(1 + 3) = -3/4

The 6th term T₆ = 6(6 - 4)/(6 + 3) = 6(2)/9 = 2(2)/3 = 4/3

So, the sum of the 1st and 6th terms is T₁ + T₆ = -3/4 + 4/3

= (-9 + 16)/12

= 7/12

Answer:

28 ≤ x ≤40

Step-by-step explanation:

Arrange the data from the smallest to the largest

26, 27, 28,32, 32, 33, 35, 36, 38, 40,42,48

Identify the median value

26, 27, 28,32, 32,<u> 33, 35</u>, 36, 38, 40,42,48

Getting the median

(33+35)/2 = 68/2 = 34 minutes

You want your time to be last year's median time with an absolute deviation of at most 6 minutes

This mean ±6 minutes, hence this will be 34 ± 6

34+6=40 and 34-6=28

The inequality will be 28 ≤ x ≤40

Answer:

The ceiling is lower than 3 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the above, the product is <em>less than</em> 3. In this case, it will not include 3 as a choice, as if it would, the $\leq$ would be used.

This means that x would be any number that is less than 3. The only choice that gives a choice that means less than by the terms definition is A) The ceiling is lower than 3 meters.
