Answer:

f(n) = 2 × 3^{n-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to write an explicit rule for a geometric function, you need to know the common ratio; you can find the common ratio by dividing two consecutive terms:

6 ÷ 2 = 3, 18 ÷ 6 = 3, 54 ÷ 18 = 3, etc..

Now you know the common ratio is 3. At this point you can write your explicit function following the rule f(n) = [1st term] × [common ratio]^(n-1):

f(n) = 2 × 3^(n-1)

Multiply each number by 3.

2 (x 3) is 6. 6 x 3 is 18, 18 x 3 is 54, 54 x 3 is 162.

Hope this helps!

The number of responses to a survey are shown in the Pareto chart. The survey asked 1052 adults how they would grade the quality
Goryan [66]

Answer: (a) P(no A) = 0.935

              (b) P(A and B and C) = 0.0005

              (c) P(D or F) = 0.379

              (d) P(A or B) = 0.31

Step-by-step explanation: <u>Pareto</u> <u>Chart</u> demonstrates a relationship between two quantities, in a way that a relative change in one results in a change in the other.

The Pareto chart below shows the number of people and which category they qualified each public school.

(a) The probability of a person not giving an A is the difference between total probability (1) and probability of giving an A:

P(no A) = 1-\frac{68}{1052}

P(no A) = 1 - 0.065

P(no A) = 0.935

b) Probability of a grade better than D, is the product of the probabilities of an A, an B and an C:

P(A and B and C) = (\frac{68}{1052})(\frac{258}{1052})(\frac{327}{1052})

P(A and B and C) = \frac{5736888}{1164252608}

P(A and B and C) = 0.0005

c) Probability of an D or an F is the sum of probabilities of an D and of an F:

P(D or F) = \frac{269}{1052} +\frac{130}{1052}

P(D or F) = \frac{399}{1052}

P(D or F) = 0.379

d) Probability of an A or B is also the sum of probabilities of an A and of an B:

P(A or B) = \frac{68}{1052} +\frac{258}{1052}

P(A or B) = \frac{326}{1052}

P(A or B) = 0.31
