Which is the graph of x

C is the midpoint of line segment AB Find the value of x, if line segment AB = 5x and line segment AC = 20.

Softa [21]

D.8

A and C are out because they would get you ether lower or equal to 20, which is equal to AC and your trying to find X in AB which is so posed to be the what equals AC+BC.
AB=AC+BC
5x=20+BC
5(8)=20+BC
40=20+BC
40=20+20

AC equals 20. AB will have to equal AC+ CB. If you put in A.4 in AB 5X you will get twenty and that not what you want. You want to get a number that will get you the an answer greater to AC. So 5(8)=40.

It is generally claimed that the average body temperature for healthy human adults is 98.6°F. To test this claim a simple random

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information provided is as follows:

$\mu=98.6^{o}F\\\bar x=98.1^{o}F\\s=0.9^{o}F\\n=9$

(1)

A single mean test is to be performed in this case.

As the population standard deviation is not provided, a one-sample t-test will be used.

The correct option is b.

(2)

The null hypothesis is:

H₀: The average temperature in the population is 98.6°F, i.e. μ = 98.6°F.

The correct option is b.

(3)

The alternative hypothesis is:

Hₐ: The average temperature in the population is less than 98.6°F, i.e. μ < 98.6°F.

The correct option is c.

(4)

The standard deviation of the sample mean is as follows:

$SD_{\bar x}=\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\frac{0.9}{\sqrt{9}}=0.3^{o}F$

Thus, the value of SD is 0.3°F.

(5)

Compute the value of test statistic as follows:

$t=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{SD_{\bar x}}$

$=\frac{98.1-98.6}{0.3}\\\\=-1.666666667\\\\\approx -1.67$

Thus, the value of test statistic is -1.67.

(6)

The degrees of freedom of the test are:

df = n - 1

= 9 - 1

= 8

Thus, the degrees of freedom of the test is 8.

Which formula can be used to find the nth term of a geometric sequence where the fifth term is 1/6 and the common ratio is 1/4?

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

$a_n = 16(\frac{1}{4})^{n - 1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Fifth term of a geometric sequence = $\frac{1}{16}$

Common ratio (r) = ¼

Required:

Formula for the nth term of the geometric sequence

Solution:

Step 1: find the first term of the sequence

Formula for nth term of a geometric sequence = $ar^{n - 1}$ , where:

a = first term

r = common ratio = ¼

Thus, we are given the 5th term to be ¹/16, so n here = 5.

Input all these values into the formula to find a, the first term.

$\frac{1}{16} = a*\frac{1}{4}^{5 - 1}$

$\frac{1}{16} = a*\frac{1}{4}^{4}$

$\frac{1}{16} = a*\frac{1}{256}$

$\frac{1}{16} = \frac{a}{256}$

Cross multiply

$1*256 = a*16$

Divide both sides by 16

$\frac{256}{16} = \frac{16a}{16}$

$16 = a$

$a = 16$

Step 2: input the value of a and r to find the nth term formula of the sequence

nth term = $ar^{n - 1}$

nth term = $16*\frac{1}{4}^{n - 1}$

$a_n = 16(\frac{1}{4})^{n - 1}$
