Answer:
See explanation below
Step-by-step explanation:
Since each time after the person gets off the scale, the reading is 2 lb the person's weight must be near the mean of
148-2, 151-2, 150-2, 152-2; that is to say, near the mean of 146, 149, 148, 150 = (146+149+148+150)/4 = 148.25
We could estimate the uncertainty as <em>the standard error SE
</em>
where
<em>s = standard deviation of the sample
</em>
<em>n = 4 sample size.
</em>
Computing s:
So, the uncertainty is 1.479/2 = 0.736
<em>It is not possible to estimate the bias, since it is the difference between the true weight and the mean, but we do not know the true weight.
</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
arithmetic sequence.
an = an-1 + c = a1 + (n-1)c
c is in our case 2 (every new shape has 2 more vertices).
we have a a1 = 3.
an = 3 + 2(n-1)
so,
a21 = 3 + 2(20) = 3 + 40 = 43
the 21st shadow will have 43 vertices.
Answer:
-4y/3
Step-by-step explanation:
If we have -4xy/3x, we just cancel the x since it is in the numerator and denominator. That leaves us with just -4y/3
