Answer:

-39

Step-by-step explanation:

This sequence follows the pattern of subtracting 7 each time. We can prove this:

31 - 7 = 24, 24 - 7 = 17, 17 - 7 = 10

So if we were to continue to the 11th term, we would subtract 7 more times.

1. 10 - 7 = 3

2. 3 - 7 = -4

3. -4 - 7 = -11

4. -11 - 7 = -18

5. -18 - 7 = -25

6. -25 - 7 = -32

7. -32 - 7 = -39

The 11th term in the sequence would be -39.

Please I need help with this question!

Answer:

I. 60%

II. 75.4 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the z-scores and the standard normal distribution to answer this questions.

We have a normal distribution with mean 69 kg and variance 25 kg^2 (therefore, standard deviation of 5 kg).

I. What percentage of adult male in Boston weigh more than 72 kg?

We calculate the z-score for 72 kg and then calculate the associated probability:

$z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{72-69}{5}=\dfrac{3}{5}=0.6\\\\\\P(X>72)=P(z>0.6)=0.274$

II. What must an adult male weigh in order to be among the heaviest 10% of the population?

We have to calculate tha z-score that satisfies:

$P(z>z^*)=0.1$

This happens for z=1.28 (see attachment).

Then, we can calculate the weight using this transformation:

$X=\mu+z^*\cdot\sigma=69+1.28\cdot 5=69+6.4=75.4$

Consider the following polynomial expression: 4x^5-16x^2+13x^8. Part B: What is the degree of the polynomial

Tanya [424]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write polynomial

4x⁵ - 16x² + 13x⁸

Step 2: Rearrange

13x⁸ + 4x⁵ - 16x²

The degree of a polynomial is the highest power. In this case, our degree would be 8 because of the x⁸ term being the largest exponent.

If it takes 15 minutes to dry your hair with a 1.200 kW hair drier, how much energy is used in drying your hair?

slega [8]

E=Pt where e= energy P= power t= time

E=1.200kiowatt/15 minutes
E={1200/100*1000}/15
E=800 watt/minute
