Allen is on the football team this year but he has poor time management skills. His mother told him that he is off the team if h

e fails anything. On his first quiz he got a 90, the second he earned an 86, then he earned an 82 on the next two quizzes. Is this sequence arithmetic or geometric? Recursion equation? Function formula? On what quiz will he no longer to play football? How many total points did Allen earn on all the quizzes he has taken up to his removal of the team?

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that the sequence is 90, 86,82,.......

The common difference is  86 - 90 = -4

                                             82 - 86 = -4

Hence the sequence is arithmetic

The function is;

t(n) = 90 + (n - 1)(-4) = 90 + 4 - 4n

t(n) = 94 - 4n

Since it is AP, we have the sequence as;

90, 86, 82, 78, 74, 70, 66, 62......

He will no longer play football after the eighth quiz.

The total points earned is the sum of the first eight terms of the AP

Sn =n/2[2a + (n - 1) d]

Sn = 8/2[2(90) + (8 - 1) (-4)]

Sn = 608 points

Find the slope. hsjsnsjsbjabajabahabh​
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

the slope is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

to find slope all you need to do is look at the places where the line and the graph intersect. you should be able to find atleast 2 places. Once you have done that, count up how ever many spaces it is until you are on the same line with the place where the line intersects with the graph remember that number in your head, then could left or right until you are on top of the other place where it intersects, remember that number. In this case I counted 2 spaces up and 1 space to the left which gave me 2/1 which is 2

hope this helps. have a good day!

The mean temperature for the first 4 days in January was 8°C. The mean temperature for the first 5 days in January was 7°C. What
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

The temperature of the 5th day was 3°C

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean temperature of the first 4 days = 8°C

Note that:

Mean = Sum of temperatures ÷ number of days

∴ 8 = sum of temperature ÷ 4

= 8 = \frac{sum\ of\ temperatures}{4}

= sum\ of\ temperatures\ = 8\ \times\ 4 = 32

Therefore the sum of the first 4 days = 32

Let the temperature of the next day (the fifth day) be m

Hence,

sum of the temperatures of first 5 days = 32 + m - - - - (1)

Next, the sum of the first 5 days can be calculated from the given average of the first 5 days as follows:

Mean temperature of the first 5 days = 7

Mean = \frac{sum\ of\ temperatures}{number \ of\ days}\\\\7 = \frac{sum\ of\ temperatures}{5} \\sum\ of\ temperatures\ = \ 7\ \times\ 5\ = 35\\sum\ of\ temperature\ of\ the\ first\ 5\ days\ =\ 35 - - - - - (2)

Now, you will notice that equation (1) = equation (2)

∴ 32 + m = 35

m = 35 - 32 = 3

therefore, the temperature of the 5th day was 3°C

Population parameters are difficult to calculate due to
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

1

option d

2

option a

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

The population is difficult to cover because it involves a lot of cost on procedure. Further, whole population is difficult to cover and it is infeasible to collect data on entire population. For example we want to check the quality of rice in production unit, we could n't test all grains of rice to check the quality rather than we take a portion of rice grains for quality check. Here, if the whole lot of a rice grains are taken then first drawback would be that it will be costly and second it is infeasible to collect data for whole lot of a rice grains.

2)

Teacher's union is planning to calculate the average salary for only high school teachers in a country and salaries for other teachers are not considered. So, from teachers population a sample of high school teacher in a country is selected. Thus, the calculated average will be sample statistic.
