6 0

Answer:

The mother is 30 and the daughter is 6

Step-by-step explanation:

When solving for this, you can derive the equations

x=5y and x+6= 3(y+6)

x= mother and y= Daughter

Solve the equations by substituting the first equation into the places of x in the second equation to get the value of x. Next, pug in the value of x and solve for y.

Find the first term and the explicit formula a12=1/32 and r=1/2
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of a geometric sequence is

a_{n} = a(r)^{n-1}

where a is the first term and r the common ratio

Given a_{12} = \frac{1}{32} and r = \frac{1}{2}, then

a (\frac{1}{2}) ^{11} = \frac{1}{32}, that is

\frac{a}{2^{11} } = \frac{1}{32}

\frac{a}{2048} = \frac{1}{32} ( cross- multiply )

32a = 2048 ( divide both sides by 32 )

a = 64 ← first term

Thus the explicit formula is

a_{n} = 64 (\frac{1}{2}) ^{n-1}

A university dean is interested in determining the proportion of students who receive some sort of financial aid. Rather than ex
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer: B. 0.59 plus or minus 0.090

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval of population proportion is given by :-

\hat{p}\pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

Given : Sample size : n=200

The proportion of students are receiving financial aid :hat{p}=\dfrac{118}{200}=0.59

Significance level : \alpha: 1-0.99=0.01

Critical value : z_{\alpha/2}=2.576

Then, the confidence interval of population proportion is given by :-

0.59\pm (2.576)\sqrt{\dfrac{0.59(1-0.59)}{200}}\\\\=0.59\pm0.0895877841673\\\\\approx0.59\pm0.090

Hence,  a 99​% confidence interval to estimate the true proportion of students on financial aid = 0.59 plus or minus 0.090
