Answer:

8th term is 179.15904

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence is geometric with a common ration = 6/5

r = 60/50 = 72/60 = 6/5

Use the formula

$a_{n} = ar^{n - 1}$

In your case a = 50, r = 6/5 and n = 8

$a_{8} = 50(6/5)^{8 - 1} \\ = 50(6/5)^{7} \\ = 50(279936/78125)\\ = 179.15904$

HELP NEEDED!!!! MUCH APPRECIATED

We have

$t_1 + t+2 = \dfrac{\sqrt{s}}{4} + \dfrac{s}{1100} = .5$

Multiplying through by 1100,

$275 \sqrt{s} + s = 550$

$275 \sqrt{s} = 550 - s$

Squaring (which means we need to check later),

$275^2 s = (550 - s)^2 = 550^2 - 1100 s + s^2$

$0 = s^2 - (1100 + 275^2) s + 550^2$

$0 = s^2 - 76725 s + 302500$

$s = \frac 1 2 (76725 \pm 1375 \sqrt{3113} )$

$s \approx 3.94285 \textrm{ or } s \approx 76721.0571$

Clearly there's no way that giant number would work; must be extraneous.

Answer: 3.94

A university with a high water bill is interested in estimating the mean amount of time that students spend in the shower each d

Bas_tet [7]

Answer: $(4.0845,\ 6.5755)$

Step-by-step explanation:

As per given , we have

n = 11

$\overline{x}=5.33\\\\ s=1.33$

Since population standard deviation is missing, so we use t-test.

Critical t-value for 99% confidence :

$t_{\alpha/2,\ n-1}=3.106$ [using two-tailed t-value table]

Confidence interval :

$\overline{x}\pm t_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\= 5.33\pm (3.1060)\dfrac{1.33}{\sqrt{11}}\\\\\approx5.33\pm1.2455\\\\=(5.33-1.2455,\ 5.33+1.2455)\\\\=(4.0845,\ 6.5755)$

Hence, 99% confidence interval for the mean amount of time that students spend in the shower each day.= $(4.0845,\ 6.5755)$
