Answer:
a(8) = -0.0027
Step-by-step explanation:
The most general formula for a geometric sequence is a(n) = a(1)*r^(n-1), where a(1) is the first term and r is the common ratio.
Here, the formula becomes a(n) = 6*(-1/3)^(n-1).
Substitute 8 for n to find the eighth term:
a(8) = 6*(-1/3)^(8-1), or a(8) = 6(-1/3)^7, or a(8) = -0.0027
Answer:
x-intercept : (2, 0)
y-intercept : (0, -5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The x-intercept is where y = 0, and the y-intercept is where x = 0. To find the intercepts, substitute a zero in for the other variable, and solve.
So the x-intercept of 5x – 2y = 10 is
5x – 2y = 10 → 5x – 2(0) = 10 → 5x = 10 →
x = 2 → (2, 0).
So the y-intercept of 5x – 2y = 10 is
5x – 2y = 10 → 5(0) – 2y = 10 → -2y = 10 →
y = -5 → (0, -5).
Answer:
To provide a baseline for judging the survival rates of infants who received whole-body cooling
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case, the purpose of the experiment is to see whether reducing body temperature for three days after birth increased the rate of survival without brain damage.
Then, the proposed method (whole-body cooling) has to be contrasted with the baseline, in this case, the "usual care". If we want to know if this proposed method is statistically better, we have to compare with these baseline with random sampling out of the same population.
If it is not compared to nothing or to a new method, it wouldn't be possible to conclude if the method is better or not than the usual care.
