Answer: -4 . 2ⁿ⁻¹
Step-by-step explanation: This is a geometric progression
the nth term is given by arⁿ⁻¹
a = the first term of the sequence
r = common ratio
n= number of terms
for this sequence
a = -4
r = -8/-4 = 2
nth term, an = -4 . 2ⁿ⁻¹
Gino studied for 5/4 hours in all. To get this, do 3+2 for the numerator and just put 4 as the denominator. (Four just stays the same the denominator is all fours. If you want more details just put it on comments.) Now you have the answer: 5/4 hours.
ANSWER TO QUESTION 1

We rewrite to obtain;

Recall this product law of indices
we apply this law to obtain,

This simplifies to

We need to rewrite this in standard form;

We apply the product law again to get

This simplifies to

ANSWER TO QUESTION 2

We rewrite to obtain;

Recall this product law of indices
we apply this law to obtain,

This simplifies to

This is already in standard form.

Complete question :
Mavis is interested in whether military dependency is related to gender in American Samoa. Here is data she collected about the population of American Samoa in 2010.
Millitary status _________ female ____ Male
In armed forces _________ 28 _______ 59
Millitary dependent ______ 928 ______ 781
Civilian _______________ 26393 ___27330
Answer:
Male = 0.4193
Female = 0.5087
Step-by-step explanation:
To obtain the marginal distribution of gender :
Total number of civilians (male + female)
(26393 + 27330) = 53,723
Male :
P(male) = number of male / total
P(male) = 26393 / 53,723 = 0.4912793
P(Female) = number of Female / total
P(Female) = 27330 / 53,723 = 0.5087206
