Answer:

The sequence <u>is</u> geometric and the common ratio is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

A sequence is geometric if each term (after the first one) is equal to the term before it times some constant number, called the 'common ratio'.

Examples: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, ... has a common ratio of 2 because 2*2 = 4, and 4*2 = 8, and so on.

Also, --> 4, 2, 1, 1/2, 1/4/ 1/8, ... has a common ratio of 1/2 because

4 * 1/2 = the next term 2, and 2 * 1/2 = the next trem 1/4, and son on.

In this case, 3 * 2 = 6

6 * 2 = 12

12 * 2 = 24

The sequence <u>is</u> geometric and the common ratio is 2

Points (−3, 5) and (3, 5) on the coordinate grid below show the positions of two players on a tennis court:

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

4. Player 2's position is Player 1's position reflected across the y-axis; only the signs of the x-coordinates of Player 1 and Player 2 are different.

Step-by-step explanation:

Player 1's position is (-3, 5).

It means that it is 3 units left from the origin and 5 units above the origin.

Player 2's position is (3, 5).

It means that it is 3 units right from the origin and 5 units above the origin.

Hence, the two points are on the same horizontal line bisected by the y-axis.

So, Player 2's position is Player 1's position reflected across the y-axis; only the signs of the x-coordinates of Player 1 and Player 2 are different.

.For small training sets variance may contribute more to the overall error than bias. Sometimes this is handled by reducing the

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Bias is the difference between the average prediction of our model and the correct value which we are trying to predict and variance is the variability of model prediction for a given data p[oint or a value which tells us the spread of our data the variance perform very well on training data but has high error rates on test data on the other hand if our model has small training sets then it's going to have smaller variance & & high bias and its contribute more to the overall error than bias. If our model is too simple and has very few parameters then it may have high bias and low variable. As the model go this is conceptually trivial and is much simpler than what people commonly envision when they think of modelling but it helps us to clearly illustrate the difference bewteen bias & variance.
