Hello,

Answer is C

a_1=0.5=\dfrac{1}{2} \\\\a_2=-0.1=-\dfrac{1}{10} =a_1*(-\dfrac{2}{10} )=a_1*(-\dfrac{1}{5} )\\\\a_3=0.02=\dfrac{2}{10^2} =a_2*(-\dfrac{2}{10} )=a_2*(-\dfrac{1}{5} )=a_1*(-\dfrac{1}{5} )^2\\...\\a_n=a_1*(-\dfrac{1}{5} )^{n-1}\\\\\boxed{a_n=0.5*(-0.2)^{n-1}}\\

Which equation has NO solution? A) 15x + 12 3 = 5x + 4 B) 8 − 4x 10 = 4 + 2x C) 4x − 20 2 = 2x − 10 D) 15x + 5 3 = 5x + 6
jenyasd209 [6]

Assumption:

<em>Something is missing in question. If we see deeply it is apparent that there is some issue with option b i.e. </em><em>B) 8 − 4x 10 = 4 + 2x </em><em>we assume that the questioner want to type </em><em>B) 8-4x^10 = 4 + 2x.</em>

Answer:

The correct answer is <em> </em><em>B) 8-4x^10 = 4 + 2x.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

All equations given is the question can be solve easily to determine the value of x. However if we solve equation mentioned in option b we cannot  get single answer easily.

For example value of x in eq given in option A

15x + 123 = 5x+4

1oX = -119

 X = -119/10

A statistical technique called the chi-square test is used to compare actual outcomes with predictions.

The goal of this test is to establish if a discrepancy between actual and predicted data is the result of chance or a correlation between the variables you are researching.

Whether there is a statistically significant association between categorical variables is determined by the Chi-square test of independence.

This issue is addressed by a hypothesis test. The chi-square test of association is another name for this assessment.

Hence,in stats would a test looking at gender & holiday preference yes you can do  a Chi-squared test and α(alpha) is the response variable.
