Answer:

B) 1594323

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Given GP</h3>

-9, 27, -81, ...

12th term

<h3>Solution</h3>

<u>nth term formula</u>

aₙ = a₁rⁿ⁻¹, where r- common ratio, n- number of the term

a₁ = -9
r = 27/-9 = -81/27 = -3

a₁₂ = (-9)*(-3)¹¹ = 1594323

Correct choice is B

The tax on a property with an assessed value of $90,000 is $1,200. What is the assessed value of a property if the tax is $2,200

Ivanshal [37]

I'm not 100% sure but this is how I would try.
If you don't get a better answer, check this w/your teacher.

x/100 *90,000 = 1200

90,000x = 120,000

x = 1.3% tax percentage

1.3/100x = 2200

1.3x = 220,000

x = $169,230.77 assessed value

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

2.35 calls

Step-by-step explanation:

The presented scenario can be modeled by a Poisson distribution with an average number of calls (μ) of 5.5 during the noon hour on Mondays.

Therefore, the standard deviation for the number of calls received, X, is given by:

$\sigma =\sqrt \mu\\\sigma =\sqrt5.5\\\sigma =2.35\ calls$

The standard deviation of X is 2.35 calls.
