Answer:
0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the mean of the data
3+4+4+5 = 16
16/4 = 4
Find the distance of each data to the mean
4-3 = 1
5-4= 1
4-4 = 0
4-4 = 0
Now find the mean of those
1+1+0+0 = 2
2/4
MAD = 0.5
Let x be the number of cars. We will find out how many cars you have to wash to make as much money as your friend:
10x - 25= 13x - 55 Add 25 on both sides and subtract 13x, also both sides:
3x = -30 Now divide both sides by -3:
x= 10 cars you have to wash.

Explanation:
A sequence is a list of numbers.
A <em>geometric</em> sequence is a list of numbers such that the ratio of each number to the one before it is the same. The common ratio can be any non-zero value.
<u>Examples</u>
- 1, 2, 4, 8, ... common ratio is 2
- 27, 9, 3, 1, ... common ratio is 1/3
- 6, -24, 96, -384, ... common ratio is -4

<u>General Term</u>
Terms of a sequence are numbered starting with 1. We sometimes use the symbol a(n) or an to refer to the n-th term. The general term of a geometric sequence, a(n), can be described by the formula ...
a(n) = a(1)×r^(n-1) . . . . . n-th term of a geometric sequence
where a(1) is the first term, and r is the common ratio. The above example sequences have the formulas ...
- a(n) = 2^(n -1)
- a(n) = 27×(1/3)^(n -1)
- a(n) = 6×(-4)^(n -1)
You can see that these formulas are exponential in nature.
__
<u>Sum of Terms</u>
Another useful formula for geometric sequences is the formula for the sum of n terms.
S(n) = a(1)×(r^n -1)/(r -1) . . . . . sum of n terms of a geometric sequence
When |r| < 1, the sum converges as n approaches infinity. The infinite sum is ...
S = a(1)/(1-r)
Answer: 5.3 Hours
Step-by-step explanation: 140 mi there at 56 mi per hour would be 2.5 hours. Then back 140 mi at 50 mi/h would be 2.8. 2.5 plus a 2.8 is 5.3 hours
