Answer:

The four consecutive multiples of three are 6, 9, 12, and 15

Step-by-step explanation:

let the first multiple of 3 = n

second multiple of 3 = (n + 3)

third multiple of 3 =(n + 6)

fourth multiple of 3 =(n + 9)

product of the first and the third = n(n + 6) = n² + 6n

eight times the fourth number = 8(n + 9) = 8n  + 72

The difference between the two =  n² + 6n - (8n  + 72) = -48

n² + 6n - 8n  - 72 = -48

n² - 2n =  -48 + 72

n² - 2n = 24

n² - 2n - 24 = 0

n²  - 2n - 24 = 0

n² + 4n - 6n - 24 = 0

n(n + 4) - 6(n + 4) = 0

(n - 6)(n + 4) = 0

n = 6    or  - 4

n should be a positive number, thus n = 6

The second multiple of 3 =  (n + 3) = 6 + 3 = 9

The third multiple of 3 =(n + 6) = 6 + 6 = 12

The fourth multiple of 3 = (n + 9) = 6 + 9 = 15

When we make inferences about the difference of two independent population proportions, what assumptions do we need to make? mar
Elis [28]

When we make inferences about the difference of two independent population proportions, we assume that it is a random sample, and the number of successes and failures are at least 15 in each group.

Two independent proportions tests involve comparing the proportions of two unrelated datasets.

For these two datasets to be regarded as an independent population, the following must be true or assumed to be true

  • The datasets must represent a random sample
  • Each dataset must contain at least 15 successes and failures

Hence, the above highlights are the assumptions of two independent population proportions.

Answerrr? Please I need help
nadezda [96]

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

f^{3} + 11g - 4h

f = 3, g = 2 and h = 7.

Substitute the above values into the expression.

3^{3} + 11 × 2 - 4 × 7

Since there's no addition, subtraction or division signs between 11g and 4h, this basically shows that it is multiplied. Simplify further...

3^{3} is 3×3×3 which equals to 27

11 × 2 equals to 22, and

-4 × 7 = -28

Put all these found values into an expression.

27 + 22 - 28

Use the B.O.D.M.A.S. rule. First we have to add then subtract.

(27 + 22) - 28

49 - 28 = 21

Which sequence isn’t a geometric progression?
AVprozaik [17]

Answer: 3, 6, 9, 12

Step-by-step explanation:

A geometric progression has a common ratio.

2,6, 18 and 54 has a common ratio of 3. When you multiply the first number by 3, you get the second number and the same thing applies to the third number.

1, 5, 25 and 125 has a common ratio of 5. When you multiply the first number by 5, you get the second number and the same thing applies to the third number.

4, 8, 16 and 32 has a common ratio of 2. When you multiply the first number by 2, you get the second number and the same thing applies to the third number.

3, 6, 9 and 12 is an arithmetic progression as 3 is added to each number
