Answer: 90 apples

Step-by-step explanation: If Mat sold 8 times as many apples as how much he gave to his son, this means he sold 40 apples.  Altogether, he loses 45 apples (5 to his son, 40 sold), and this is 1/2 of the original numbers of apples.  Hence, the original number of apples was 90

The 2nd and 5th terms of a gp are 1/18 and 4/243 respectively. Find
Viktor [21]

The third term of the geometric progression will be 1 / 27 with common ratio 2 / 3.

We are given that:

2nd term of geometric progression = 1 / 18

5th term = 4 / 243

Now, we can also write it as:

2nd term = a r ( where r is the common ratio and a is the initial term.)

a r = 1 / 18

5th term = a r⁴

a r⁴ = 4 / 243

Now divide 5th term by 2nd term, we get that:

a r⁴ / a r = ( 4 / 243 ) / ( 1 / 18 )

r³ = 72 / 243

r³ = 8 / 27

r = ∛ (8 / 27)

r = 2 / 3

3rd term = a r²

a r² = a r × r

= 1 / 18 × 2 / 3

3rd term = 1 / 27

Therefore, the third term of the geometric progression will be 1 / 27 with common ratio 2 / 3.

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving using empirical rule formula

95% of data falls within 2 standard deviations from the mean - between μ – 2σ and μ + 2σ .

Hence, the lower bound 95% =

μ - 2σ

Mean = 0.2

Standard deviation of 0.05

= μ - 2σ

= 0.2 - 2(0.05)

= 0.2 - 0.1

= 0.1

The lower bound is 0.1
