Sequence 2, - 4, 8, -16, 32 ....
First term = a = 2
Problem
Find the nth term
tn = (-1 )^(n -1) * (a)^n answer or
tn = (-1)^(n - 1) * 2^n
where a is defined as the first term (it usually is given that designation).
Try a few to make sure the formula is correct
<em>n = 1</em>
t1 = (-1)^(1 - 1) * 2^1
t1 = (-1)^0 * 2
t1 = 1 * 2 = 2
<em>n =2</em>
t2 = (-1)^(2 - 1) * 2^2 = (-1)^1 * 4 = -4
Answer:
you would - 1 to -7 and get -8 then divide -8 by -2 than it would be 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Correct option: (a)
Step-by-step explanation:
A confidence interval is an interval estimate of the parameter value.
A (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval implies that the confidence interval has a (1 - <em>α</em>)% probability of consisting the true parameter value.
OR
If 100 such confidence intervals are made then (1 - <em>α</em>) of these intervals would consist the true parameter value.
The 92% confidence interval for the mean annual phone charge of all Vopstra customers is:

This confidence interval implies that true mean annual phone charge of all Vopstra customers is contained in the interval ($405, $535) with 0.92 probability.
Thus, the correct option is (a).
Answer: a) There are 42% chances that both units will meet their objectives.
b) There are 88% chances that one or the other but not both of the units will be successful.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Probability that the Red unit will successfully meet its objectives = 60% = P(R)
Probability that Blue unit will successfully meet its objectives = 70% = P(B)
Probability that only Red unit will be successful = P(only Red) = 18%
As we know that

Hence, there are 42% chances that both units will meet their objectives.
the probability that one or the other but not both of the units will be successful is given by

Hence, there are 88% chances that one or the other but not both of the units will be successful.
