Answer:

$a_{63}$ = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of an arithmetic progression is

$a_{n}$ = a + (n - 1)d

where a is the first term and d the common difference

use the 9 th term and 7 th term to find a and d

$a_{9}$ = a + 8d = $\frac{1}{7}$ → (1)

$a_{7}$ = a + 6d = $\frac{1}{9}$ → (2)

Subtract (2) from (1) term by term

2d = $\frac{2}{63}$ ⇒ d = $\frac{1}{63}$

Substitute this value into (2) and solve for a

a + $\frac{6}{63}$ = $\frac{1}{9}$

a = $\frac{1}{9}$ - $\frac{6}{63}$ = $\frac{1}{63}$

Hence

$a_{63}$ = $\frac{1}{63}$ + $\frac{62}{63}$ = 1

The correct name for the line shown is the answer choice C.

It can be A because the picture is a line not a ray and it cant be B because the picture shown is not a segment

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

The Decision Rule

Fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion

There is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean age of the cars is greater than that of taxi

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The data is

Car Ages 4 0 8 11 14 3 4 4 3 5 8 3 3 7 4 6 6 1 8 2 15 11 4 1 6 1 8

Taxi Ages 8 8 0 3 8 4 3 3 6 11 7 7 6 9 5 10 8 4 3 4

The level of significance $\alpha = 0.05$

Generally the null hypothesis is $H_o : \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 0$

the alternative hypothesis is $H_a : \mu_1 - \mu_2 > 0$

Generally the sample mean for the age of cars is mathematically represented as

$\= x_1 = \frac{\sum x_i }{n}$

=> $\= x_1 = \frac{4+ 0+ 8 +11 + \cdots + 8
}{27}$

=> $\= x_1 = 5.56$

Generally the standard deviation of age of cars

$\sigma _1 = \sqrt{\frac{\sum (x_i - \= x)^2}{n_1} }$

=> $\sigma _1 = \sqrt{\frac{(4 - 5.56)^2 + (0 - 5.56)^2+ (8 - 5.56)^2 + \cdots + 8}{ 27} }$

=> $\sigma _1 = 3.88$

Generally the sample mean for the age of taxi is mathematically represented as

$\= x_2 = \frac{\sum x_i }{n}$

=> $\= x_2 = \frac{8 +8 +0 + \cdots + 4
}{20}$

=> $\= x_2 = 5.85$

Generally the standard deviation of age of taxi

$\sigma _2 = \sqrt{\frac{\sum (x_i - \= x)^2}{n_1} }$

=> $\sigma _2 = \sqrt{\frac{(8 - 5.85)^2 + (8 - 5.85)^2+ (0 - 5.85)^2 + \cdots + 8}{ 20} }$

=> $\sigma _2 = 2.83$

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

$t = \frac{(\= x_ 1 - \= x_2 ) - 0}{\sqrt{\frac{\sigma^2_1}{n_1} + \frac{\sigma^2_2}{n_2} } }$

=> $t = \frac{(5.56 - 5.85 ) - 0}{\sqrt{\frac{(3.88)^2}{27} + \frac{(2.83)}{20} }}$

=> $t = -0.30$

Generally the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as

$df = n_1 + n_2 -2$

$df = 27 + 20 -2$

$df = 45$

From the t distribution table the $P(t > t )$ at the obtained degree of freedom = 45 is

$P(t > -0.30 ) = 0.61722067$

So the p-value is

$p-value = P(t > T) = 0.61722067$

From the obtained values we see that the p-value > $\alpha$ hence we fail to reject the null hypothesis

Hence the there is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean age of the cars is greater than that of taxi

How can you quickly determine the number of roots a polynomial will have by looking at the equation?

Goryan [66]

First, you need to get delta which is b squared minus 4ac. If delta is higher than cero, the polynomial has two solutions, if it is less, the polynomial has no real solutions and if it is the same, it has one solution.
Although that is only for second grade ecuations
