Answer: 7 × ( 3^n - 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a geometric progression which has its nth term to be

Tn = ar^n- 1. Now from the question given, the sequence are 7, 21, 63, 189. This is an example of a finite sequence, To find the common ratio, you divide the second term by the first term. So

r = 21/7

= 3. , a = 7

Now to find the nth term put the values in the formula above.

Tn =ar^n-1

= 7(3)^n - 1)

= 7 × ( 3^n - 1 ).

Note, it is not 21^n - 1.

Suppose that the value of a stock varies each day from $13 to $24 with a uniform distribution. (a) Find the probability that the
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

a. P= 0.6364

b. P = 0.3636

c. Q = $21.25

d. P = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

value of a stock varies = $13 to $24

solution

P (stock value is more than $17)

P = \frac{(24-17)}{(24-13)}

P =  \frac{7}{11}

P = 0.6364

and

P (value of the stock is between $17 and $21)

P = \frac{(21-17)}{(24-13)}

P = \frac{4}{11}

P = 0.3636  

and  

Let the upper quartile be Q

\frac{(24 - Q)}{(24 - 13)} = 0.25

\frac{(24 - Q)}{11} = 0.25

(24 - Q) = 2.75

so

Q = $21.25

and

P(X > 20 | X > 16)

P = \frac{(24-20)}{(24-16)}

P = \frac{4}{8}

P = 0.5
