Find the next two terms of the following sequence: 14, 38, 74, 122, 182, 254...

1 answer:

5 0

Let's find the difference between each number.
38-14=24
74-38=36
122-74=48
182-122=60
254-182=72
As you can tell, you're adding 12 to each difference before. The next difference would be 72+12=84. Let's add.
254+84=338
Now the next difference would be 84+12=96.
338+96=434
So, the next two terms are 338 and 434.

A person who weighs 100 pounds on Earth weighs 16.6 lb. on the moon.

mario62 [17]

Answer:

See explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 100 lbs on Earth is 16.6 lbs on the moon.

a. The independent variable is weight. The gravity of the Moon and the gravity of the Earth are constant. Weight can change, but gravity is a constant.

b. An equation that relates the weight of someone on the Moon who travels to the Earth:

100 / 16.6 = 6.02. Take the Moon weight and multiply by 6.02:

Moon Weight * 6.02 = Earth Weight.

Proof:

16.6 * 6.024 = 99.99 - approximately 100 lbs Earth weight.

c. A 185 lb astronaut on Earth would weigh:

16.6 / 100 = .166. Take the Earth weight and multiply by .166:

185 * .166 = 30 lbs on the Moon.

d. A person who weighs 50 lbs on the Moon:

50 * 6.024 = 301.2 lbs on Earth.

Hope this helps! Have an Awesome Day! :-)

Which statement is generally true about retirement?

nexus9112 [7]

The general statement that is true about retirement is B. your income will decrease, while your expenses will increase.

Retirement is the leaving of one's of occupation. This means you cease to be involved in active service in a job or occupation especially when one is considered old and of retirement age.

During retirement, retirement benefits and pension are usually made available to retirees. However, one's income will come to a decline which makes most people scared of retirement. Keeping up with the standard of living they are used to becomes difficult as income to sustain such may not be available.

Therefore, the general statement that is true about retirement is B. your income will decrease, while your expenses will increase.

Why would "-7" in the expression (x^2+3)-(x-7) become positive?

ryzh [129]

You would use the distributive property with the negative. So the second x becomes negative, but since the 7 is already negative it becomes positive. Think of it as if you put the two dashes together you can make a plus sign.

Some researchers have conjectured that stem-pitting disease in peach-tree seedlings might be controlled with weed and soil treat

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Part A

b. 14.6 ± 7.38

Part B

b. 3.43

Part C

a. P-value < 0.01

Part D

b. There is sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

The given data are;

The number of seedlings in the field = 20

The number of seedlings selected to receive herbicide A = 10

The number of seedlings selected to receive herbicide B = 10

The height in centimeters of seedlings treated with Herbicide A, $\overline x _1$ = 94.5 cm

The standard deviation, s₁ = 10 cm

The height in centimeters of seedlings treated with Herbicide B, $\overline x _2$ = 109.1 cm

The standard deviation, s₂ = 9 cm

The 90% confidence interval for μ₂ - μ₁, is given as follows;

$\left (\bar{x}_{2}- \bar{x}_{1} \right )\pm t_{\alpha /2}\sqrt{\dfrac{s_{1}^{2}}{n_{1}}+\dfrac{s_{2}^{2}}{n_{2}}}$

The critical-t at 95% and n₁ + n₂ - 2 degrees of freedom is given as follows;

The degrees of freedom, df = n₁ + n₂ - 2 = 10 + 10 - 2 = 18

α = 100% - 90% = 10%

∴ For two tailed test, we have, α/2 = 10%/2 = 5% = 0.05

$t_{(0.025, \, 18)}$ = 1.734

$C.I. = \left (109.1- 94.5 \right )\pm 1.734 \times \sqrt{\dfrac{10^{2}}{10}+\dfrac{9^{2}}{10}}$

C.I. ≈ 14.6 ± 7.37714603353

The 90% C.I. ≈ 14.6 ± 7.38

b. 14.6 ± 7.38

Part B

With the hypotheses are given as follows;

H₀; μ₂ - μ₁ = 0

Hₐ; μ₂ - μ₁ ≠ 0

The two sample t-statistic is given as follows;

$t=\dfrac{(\bar{x}_{2}-\bar{x}_{1})}{\sqrt{\dfrac{s_{1}^{2} }{n_{1}}+\dfrac{s _{2}^{2}}{n_{2}}}}$

$t-statistic=\dfrac{(109.1-94.5)}{\sqrt{\dfrac{10^{2} }{10}+\dfrac{9^{2}}{10}}} \approx 3.43173361147$

The two sample t-statistic ≈ 3.43

b. 3.43

Part C

From the t-table, the p-value, we have, the p-value < 0.01

a. P-value < 0.01

Part D

Given that a significance level of 0.05 level is used and the p-value of 0.01 is less than the significance level, there is enough statistical evidence to reject the null hypothesis

b. There is sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis.
