Answer:

$\sf \bold{ 1 * (-3)^{n-1}}$

Explanation:

first term, a₁ = 1

difference between the terms: -3

used geometric formula : $\bold{\sf a_1 * (r)^{n-1}}$

<u>where "a₁ is first term" and "r refers to common difference"</u>

formula for this nth term: $\sf \bold{ 1 * (-3)^{n-1}}$

(4x-5)+2(3x+1)<br> Can you help me solve this plz for me

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

10x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, distribute 2 to all terms within the second parenthesis:

2(3x + 1) = (2 * 3x) + (2 * 1) = 6x + 2

4x - 5 + 6x + 2

Combine like terms (terms with the same amount of variables).

4x + 6x + 2 - 5

(4x + 6x) + (2 - 5)

10x + (-3)

10x - 3

10x - 3 is your answer.

A binomial probability experiment is conducted with the given parameters. Compute the probability of x successes in the n indepe

-Dominant- [34]

Answer: 0.0031

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial distribution formula :-

$P(x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}$ , where P(x) is the probability of x successes in the n independent trials of the experiment and p is the probability of success.

Given : A binomial probability experiment is conducted with the given parameters.

$n=9,\ p=0.8,\ x\leq3$

Now, $P(x\leq3)=P(3)+P(2)+P(1)+P(0)$

$=^9C_3(0.8)^3(1-0.8)^{9-3}+^9C_2(0.8)^2(1-0.8)^{9-2}+^9C_1(0.8)^1(1-0.8)^{9-1}+^9C_0(0.8)^0(1-0.8)^9\\\\=\dfrac{9!}{3!6!}(0.8)^3(0.2)^6+\dfrac{9!}{2!7!}(0.8)^2(0.2)^7+\dfrac{9!}{1!8!}(0.8)(0.2)^8+\dfrac{9!}{0!9!}(0.2)^9=0.003066368\approx0.0031$

Hence, $P(x\leq3)=0.0031$

As a salesperson at Max’s Mattresses, Richard earns $250 plus $15 for each mattress he sells. Which equation can Richard use to

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

e = 250 + 15m

Step-by-step explanation:

The earnings or "e" are determined by the solution of the $250 he's earned from the start and the $15 he earns are dependent on the amount of mattresses he's sold so "m" has to be multiplied by the 15.

Harold wrote this equation to model the level of water in a pool over time. The variable x represents time in hours. f(x) = 3,50

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

The water level is falling.

The initial level of water in the pool was 3,500 units

The water was 2,600 units high after 4 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function that models the water level is

$f(x)=3,500-225x$

where $x$ represents time in hours.

The function represents a straight line that has slope $m=-225$

Since the slope is negative, it means the water level is falling.

The initial level of water in the pool can found when we put $x=0$ into the function.

$f(0)=3,500-225(0)$

$f(0)=3,500$ , hence the initial level is 3,500.

To determine the level of water in the pool after 14 hours, we put $x=14$ into the equation to get;

$f(14)=3,500-225(14)$

$f(14)=3,500-3150$

$f(14)=350$

To determine the water level after 4 hours we put $x=4$

$f(4)=3,500-225(4)$

$f(4)=3,500-900$

$f(14)=2,600$
