Determine if the sequence below is arithmetic or geometric and determine the common difference / ratio in simplest form.

Mathematics
1 answer:
andreev551 [17]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an arithmetic sequence and the common difference = - 2

You might be a little puzzled by the minus sign in front of the two. You can look at the sequence for the answer. It is going down. A plus 2 would make it go up. Minus signs are always a bit tricky and you have to watch out what you do with them. But the rule is simple

  • a minus common difference produces a sequence that goes down.
  • a plus common difference produces a squence that goes up.

You know that this is an arithmetic sequence because the common difference can be found by adding or subtracting a number from the previous term to get to the next term.

A geometrice sequence would use multiplication or division to get from one term to the next.

Select the best definitions of population and sample. A sample is the group from whom information is being collected. A populati
Elena L [17]

Answer:

A population is defined as the data set which consists of all members of a specified group and the sample contains a part or a subset of a population.

For example : all the students of a school are population. But out of all, how many students play sports is a sample.

Hence, the answer is - A population is the complete group under study. A sample is the sub-collection of members of the population from which data are actually collected.

Mrs. Clark has a glass vase with a base shaped like a hexagon, as shown. The vase is 30 cm tall and the hexagon base has an area
Lisa [10]

Answer: The correct option is fourth, i.e., 1935 cm³.

Explanation:

It is given that the vase is 30 cm tall and the hexagon base has an area of 64.5 cm².

The area of a hexagon base is,

A=\frac{3\sqrt{3}} {2}a^2

Where, a is the side length.

The volume of the a hexagon glass is,

V=\frac{3\sqrt{3}} {2}a^2\times h

V=A\times h

Where, A is area of base of hexagon and h is height of the hexagon glass.

V=64.5\times 30

V=1935

Therefore the volume of the glass is 1935 cm³ and the glass can hold 1935 cm³ water. So, fourth option is correct.

PLS I NEED HELP I GIVE ALL POINTS I HAVE!! :( In 1984 the average American ate 55.7 pounds of chicken. This was 2.8 pounds more
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer: Production in 2007 reached more than. 91.5 billion pounds. ... billion pounds, with chicken production totaling 36.6 ... Average Annual Per Capita Consumption (in pounds). 0.0. 10.0 ... 1980 1982 1984 1986 1988 1990 1992 1994 1996 1998 2000 2002 2004 2006. Year ... half (55 percent) of all meat consumed are red meat.

simplfying to get 19.8928571429

then you mul·ti·ple equals 155.96

then you subtract and it gets you 52.9

then you add gets you 58.5.

This question is quite simple as long as you know how to do math you should ace all of your math classes..

Mathematics can get pretty complicated. Fortunately, not all math problems need to be inscrutable. Here are five current problems in the field of mathematics that anyone can understand, but nobody has been able to solve.

like...Pick any number. If that number is even, divide it by 2. If it's odd, multiply it by 3 and add 1. Now repeat the process with your new number. If you keep going, you'll eventually end up at 1. Every time.

Mathematicians have tried millions of numbers and they've never found a single one that didn't end up at 1 eventually. The thing is, they've never been able to prove that there isn't a special number out there that never leads to 1. It's possible that there's some really big number that goes to infinity instead, or maybe a number that gets stuck in a loop and never reaches 1. But no one has ever been able to prove that for certain.

So you're moving into your new apartment, and you're trying to bring your sofa. The problem is, the hallway turns and you have to fit your sofa around a corner. If it's a small sofa, that might not be a problem, but a really big sofa is sure to get stuck. If you're a mathematician, you ask yourself: What's the largest sofa you could possibly fit around the corner? It doesn't have to be a rectangular sofa either, it can be any shape.

This is the essence of the moving sofa problem. Here are the specifics: the whole problem is in two dimensions, the corner is a 90-degree angle, and the width of the corridor is 1. What is the largest two-dimensional area that can fit around the corner?

The largest area that can fit around a corner is called—I kid you not—the sofa constant. Nobody knows for sure how big it is, but we have some pretty big sofas that do work, so we know it has to be at least as big as them. We also have some sofas that don't work, so it has to be smaller than those. All together, we know the sofa constant has to be between 2.2195 and 2.8284.
