A construction company has two divisions: ceilings and floors. The amount of revenue for the ceiling division, C, is approximate

ly Normally distributed with a mean of $2.6 million per year and a standard deviation of $0.9 million per year. The amount of revenue for the flooring division, F, is approximately Normally distributed with a mean of $3.1 million per year and a standard deviation of $1.1 million per year. Assume C and F are independent random variables.
What is the probability that the ceiling division makes more revenue than the flooring division in a randomly selected year?

Multiple Choice: A prism and a pyramid have identical bases and heights. The volume of the prism is: Twice as large as the pyram
Natali [406]

Answer:

<h3>Three times as large as the pyramid's volume</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the volume of prism be Vp

Let the Volume of pyramid be Vy

Vp = Base Area * Height .... 1

Vy = Base * Height/3 ....2

From 2;

Vp = BH/3

BH = 3Vy

Since Vp = BH, then;

Vp = 3Vy

This shows that the volume of prism is three times as large as pyramids volume

Find the nth term of the sequence 7,25,51,85,127​
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Let <em>a </em>(<em>n</em>) denote the <em>n</em>-th term of the given sequence.

Check the forward differences, and denote the <em>n</em>-th difference by <em>b </em>(<em>n</em>). That is,

<em>b </em>(<em>n</em>) = <em>a </em>(<em>n</em> + 1) - <em>a </em>(<em>n</em>)

These so-called first differences are

<em>b</em> (1) = <em>a</em> (2) - <em>a</em> (1) = 25 - 7 = 18

<em>b</em> (2) = <em>a</em> (3) - <em>a</em> (2) = 51 - 25 = 26

<em>b </em>(3) = <em>a</em> (4) - <em>a</em> (3) = 85 - 51 = 34

<em>b</em> (4) = <em>a </em>(5) - <em>a</em> (4) = 127 - 85 = 42

Now consider this sequence of differences,

18, 26, 34, 42, …

and notice that the difference between consecutive terms in this sequence <em>b</em> is 8:

26 - 18 = 8

34 - 26 = 8

42 - 34 = 8

and so on. This means <em>b</em> is an arithmetic sequence, and in particular follows the rule

<em>b</em> (<em>n</em>) = 18 + 8 (<em>n</em> - 1) = 8<em>n</em> + 10

for <em>n</em> ≥ 1.

So we have

<em>a </em>(<em>n</em> + 1) - <em>a </em>(<em>n</em>) = 8<em>n</em> + 10

or, replacing <em>n</em> + 1 with <em>n</em>,

<em>a</em> (<em>n</em>) = <em>a</em> (<em>n</em> - 1) + 8 (<em>n</em> - 1) + 10

<em>a</em> (<em>n</em>) = <em>a</em> (<em>n</em> - 1) + 8<em>n</em> + 2

We can solve for <em>a</em> (<em>n</em>) by iteratively substituting:

<em>a</em> (<em>n</em>) = [<em>a</em> (<em>n</em> - 2) + 8 (<em>n</em> - 1) + 2] + 8<em>n</em> + 2

<em>a</em> (<em>n</em>) = <em>a </em>(<em>n</em> - 2) + 8 (<em>n</em> + (<em>n</em> - 1)) + 2×2

<em>a</em> (<em>n</em>) = [<em>a</em> (<em>n</em> - 3) + 8 (<em>n</em> - 2) + 2] + 8 (<em>n</em> + (<em>n</em> - 1)) + 2×2

<em>a</em> (<em>n</em>) = <em>a</em> (<em>n</em> - 3) + 8 (<em>n</em> + (<em>n</em> - 1) + (<em>n</em> - 2)) + 3×2

and so on. The pattern should be clear; we end up with

<em>a</em> (<em>n</em>) = <em>a</em> (1) + 8 (<em>n</em> + (<em>n</em> - 1) + … + 3 + 2) + (<em>n</em> - 1)×2

The middle group is the sum,

\displaystyle 8\sum_{k=2}^nk=8\sum_{k=1}^nk-8=\frac{8n(n+1)}2-8=4n^2+4n-8

so that

<em>a</em> (<em>n</em>) = <em>a</em> (1) + (4<em>n</em> ² + 4<em>n</em> - 8) + 2 (<em>n</em> - 1)

<em>a</em> (<em>n</em>) = 4<em>n</em> ² + 6<em>n</em> - 3

Write an equation of a line parallel to line GH below in slope-intercept form that passes through the point (-5, 6).
Alexandra [31]
There are several information's of immense importance already given in the question. Based on those information's. the answer can be easily deduced.

We already know that
y = mx + b
Then
Slope for GH = (6 - 2)/(- 2 - 2)
                      = - 1
We already know that parallel lines have the same slope
Then
<span>6 = -1(5) +b 
</span>6 = - 5 + b
b = 11
Then, the equation is 
y = x + 11
From the above deduction, it can be easily concluded that the correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the last option or the fourth option.
