$- 6 \frac{1}{4} - ( - 2 \frac{1}{8} )$

$= - 6 \frac{1}{4} + 2 \frac{1}{8}$

$= \frac{ - 25}{4} + \frac{17}{8}$

$= \frac{ - 50}{8} + \frac{17}{8}$

$= \frac{ - 50 + 17}{8}$

$= \frac{ - 33}{8}$

$= - 4 \frac{1}{8}$

What is the recursive formula for this geometric sequence? –4, –24, –144, –864, ...

lesya [120]

the question does not present the options, but this does not interfere with the resolution

Let

a1=-4

a2=-24

a3=-144

a4=-864

a5=?

we know that

a2/a1=-24/-4----> 6-------> a2=6*a1

a3/a2=-144/-24---> 6-----> a3=6*a2

a4/a3=-864/-144---> 6----> a4=6*a3

therefore

a5=6*a4-----> a5=6*(-864)------> a5=-5184

hence

the formula is

an=6*a(n-1)

Answer:

0.982 * $\pi$ = 3.085 cubic units

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of the solid generated by a region that is bounded by lines where x = 0 , x (b) = 2 we apply the formula given in the attachment below

the required region boundaries are

y = e^-x2 , y = 0 , x = 0, x = b ( b >0)

attached below is a detailed solution of the problem

3. Using techniques from Calculus, show directly that the maximum value of a 1-D Gaussian distribution occurs at the point x = μ

Vilka [71]

Answer:

For a scaler variable, the Gaussian distribution has a probability density function of

p(x |µ, σ² ) = N(x; µ, σ² ) = 1 / 2π× $e^{\frac{-(x-u)^{2}}{2s^{2} } }$

The term will have a maximum value at the top of the slope of the 1-D Gaussian distribution curve that is when exp(0) =1 or when x = µ

Step-by-step explanation:

Gaussian distributions have similar shape, with the mean controlling the location and the variance controls the dispersion

From the graph of the probability distribution function it is seen that the the peak is the point at which the slope = 0, where µ = 0 and σ² = 1 then solution for the peak = exponential function = 0 or x = µ

What is the distance between the points (5.-18) and (8,

romanna [79]

Answer:

$\sqrt{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The horizontal distance from points (5,-18) and (8,-17) is 3 because it is 3 units from 5 to 8. The vertical distance is 1 since it is one unit from -18 to -17. Now we can use the equation $a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}$ where a=3 and b=1 and c is the distance that you are looking for:
