A 16-foot ladder is placed against the side of a building as shown in Figure 1 below. The bottom of the ladder is 8 feet from th

e base of the building. In order to increase the reach of the ladder against the building, the ladder is moved 4 feet closer to the base of the building, as shown in Figure 2. To the nearest foot, how much farther up the building does the ladder now reach?

Well if the ladder is moved 4 feet closer to the building then that should mean that it moves 4 feet higher. because the ladder is 8 feet from the base of the building you just do

8 + 4 = 12
so it's 12 feet....?

hope this was right on not sure..

A geometric sequence is shown below.
mestny [16]

Answer:

An explicit representation for the nth term of the sequence:

f_n=-\frac{1}{2}\cdot \:4^{n-1}

It means, option (B) should be true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the geometric sequence

-\frac{1}{2},\:-2,\:-8,\:-32,...

A geometric sequence has a constant ratio, denoted by 'r', and is defined by

f_n=f_1\cdot r^{n-1}

Determining the common ratios of all the adjacent terms

\frac{-2}{-\frac{1}{2}}=4,\:\quad \frac{-8}{-2}=4,\:\quad \frac{-32}{-8}=4

As the ratio is the same, so

r = 4

Given that f₁ = -1/2

substituting r = 4, and f₁ = -1/2 in the nth term

f_n=f_1\cdot r^{n-1}

f_n=-\frac{1}{2}\cdot \:4^{n-1}

Thus, an explicit representation for the nth term of the sequence:

f_n=-\frac{1}{2}\cdot \:4^{n-1}

It means, option (B) should be true.

The brain volumes ?( cm cubed cm3?) of 20 brains have a mean of 1083.9 1083.9 cm cubed cm3 and a standard deviation of 122.2 122
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Range: (844.9,1333.7)

A brain volume of 1348.3 cm cubed can be considered significantly high.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 1083.9 cm cubed

Standard Deviation, σ = 122.2 cm cubed

Range rule thumb:

  • This rule state that the the range of data is four times the standard deviation of the data.

\text{Range} = 4\times \sigma = 4\times 122.2 = 488.8

Upper Limit:

\mu + 2\sigma = 1089.3 + 2(122.2) = 1333.7

Lower limit:

\mu - 2\sigma = 1089.3 - 2(122.2) = 844.9

Since, 1348.3 does not lie in the range (844.9,1333.7),  a brain volume of 1348.3 cm cubed can be considered significantly high.
