Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

4times a number =4x

The difference of four times a number and seven : 4x - 7

4x - 7 = 13

4x = 13 + 7

4x = 20

x = 20/4

x = 5

If you buy a car for 15500 an average on an average a new car loses 11% of its value the moment that is driven off the lot once

AfilCa [17]

Answer:

$13,795

Step-by-step explanation:

15500/x=100/11

(15500/x)*x=(100/11)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

15500=9.0909090909091*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.0909090909091) to get x

15500/9.0909090909091=x

1705=x

x=1705

now we have:

11% of 15500=1705

Ardem collected data from a class survey. He then randomly selected samples of five responses to generate four samples.

scoundrel [369]

Solution: The sample mean of sample 1 is:

$\bar{x}=\frac{4+5+2+4+3}{5}= \frac{18}{5}=3.6$

The sample mean of sample 2 is:

$\bar{x}=\frac{2+2+6+5+7}{5}= \frac{22}{5}=4.4$

The sample mean of sample 3 is:

$\bar{x}=\frac{4+6+3+4+1}{5}= \frac{18}{5}=3.6$

The sample mean of sample 4 is:

$\bar{x}=\frac{5+2+4+3+6}{5}= \frac{20}{5}=4$

The minimum sample mean of the four sample means is 3.6 and maximum sample mean of the four sample means is 4.4.

Therefore, using his four samples, between 3.6 and 4.4 will Ardem's actual population mean lie.

Hence the option 3.6 and 4.4 is correct

PLEASE I NEED TO TURN THIS IN TOMORROW I NEED HELP PLEASE HELP ME

Answer: $\sum_{n=1}^{5}4^n=1364$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

$\sum_{n=1}^{5}4^n$

Now, we know the rule for summation , we'll apply this ,

$\sum_{n=1}^{5}4^n\\=4^1+4^2+4^3+4^4+4^5\\$

Now, it becomes geometric progression, so we us the formula for sum of terms in g.p. which is given by

$S_n=\frac{a(r^n-1)}{r-1}\\\\\text{where 'a' is the first term and 'r' is the common ratio}$

So, our equation becomes ,

$a=4 \\\\r=\frac{a_2}{a_1}=\frac{4^2}{4}=4\\\\S_5=\frac{4(4^5-1)}{4-1}\\\\S_5=1364$

Hence ,

$\sum_{n=1}^{5}4^n=1364$
