determine the 2nd and 3rd terms of a geometric sequence of which T1 =5 and T4=40
Answers
Answer:
Second term of this sequence: [tex]10[/tex].
Third term of this sequence: [tex]20[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to find the common ratio of this sequence.
In a geometric sequence, multiply one term by the common ratio to find an expression for the next term. Let [tex]r[/tex] denote the common ratio of this sequence. For this sequence:
The first term of this sequence is [tex]5[/tex]. Multiply the first term by the common ratio to find an expression for the third term: [tex]5\, r[/tex].Multiply the second term by the common ratio to find an expression for the fourth term: [tex]5\, r^{2}[/tex].Similarly, an expression for the the fourth term would be: [tex]5\, r^{3}[/tex].However, the question states that the value of the fourth term is [tex]40[/tex]. In other words, [tex]5\, r^{3} = 40[/tex].
Solve this equation for [tex]r[/tex]:
[tex]r^{3} = 8[/tex].
[tex]r = 2[/tex].
(Since the power of [tex]r[/tex] is non-even in the equation, there's no need to consider the sign of [tex]r\![/tex] when taking the cube root.)
Substitute [tex]r = 2[/tex] into the expression for the second term and the third term to find their values:
Second term: [tex]5\, r = 10[/tex].Third term: [tex]5\, r^{2} = 20[/tex].Related Questions

Step-by-step explanation:
1. Reduce the index of the radical and exponent with 2
√(a^2) = a
Basically square root is also can be represent as power of 1/2. Which is (a^2)^1/2. Then you can multiply both power. So you will get a^(2/2). solve it hence the solution is a^1 which is a. Hopefully this will help
In preparing for the upcoming holiday season, Fresh Toy Company (FTC) designed a new doll called The Dougie that teaches children how to dance. The fixed cost to produce the doll is $100,000. The variable cost, which includes material, labor, and shipping costs, is $34 per doll. During the holiday selling season, FTC will sell the dolls for $42 each. If FTC overproduces the dolls, the excess dolls will be sold in January through a distributor who has agreed to pay FTC $10 per doll. Demand for new toys during the holiday selling season is extremely uncertain. Forecasts are for expected sales of 60,000 dolls with a standard deviation of 15,000. The normal probability distribution is assumed to be a good description of the demand. FTC has tentatively decided to produce 60,000 units (the same as average demand), but it wants to conduct an analysis regarding this production quantity before finalizing the decision.
(a) Create a what-if spreadsheet model using formulas that relate the values of production quantity, demand, sales, revenue from sales, amount of surplus, revenue from sales of surplus, total cost, and net profit. What is the profit corresponding to average demand (60,000 units)? $
(b) Modeling demand as a normal random variable with a mean of 60,000 and a standard deviation of 15,000, simulate the sales of The Dougie doll using a production quantity of 60,000 units. What is the estimate of the average profit associated with the production quantity of 60,000 dolls? $ How does this compare to the profit corresponding to the average demand (as computed in part a)? The input in the box below will not be graded, but may be reviewed and considered by your instructor
(c) Before making a final decision on the production quantity, management wants an analysis of a more aggressive 70,000-unit production quantity and a more conservative 50,000-unit production quantity. Run your simulation with these two production quantities. What is the mean profit associated with each? When ordering 50,000 units, the average profit is approximately $. When ordering 70,000 units, the average profit is approximately $.
(d) Besides mean profit, what other factors should FTC consider in determining a production quantity? Compare the four production quantities (40,000; 50,000; 60,000; and 70,000) using all these factors. What trade-offs occur? If required, round Probability of a Loss to three decimal places and Probability of a Shortage to two decimal places. What is your recommendation? The input in the box below will not be graded, but may be reviewed and considered by your instructor.

write the following numbers in scientific notation. 0.0009. 12. 1000. 0.03. 1.12. 120
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the first real number and keep a decimal point to the right of it. Write the number after it.
Put a multiplication symbol and then 10.
Now count the number places to the right of the first real number and the number of place will be the power of 10.
If , number of place are before the first real number, then the power of 10 will be negative.
0.0009 = 9 * 10⁻⁴
12 = 1.2 *10
1000 = 1* 10³
0.03 = 3 *10⁻²
120 = 1.2 * 10²
1.12 = 1.12 *10⁰

A telephone exchange operator assumes that 7% of the phone calls are wrong numbers. If the operator is accurate, what is the probability that the proportion of wrong numbers in a sample of 459 phone calls would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%
Answers
Answer:
0.0118 = 1.18% probability that the proportion of wrong numbers in a sample of 459 phone calls would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]
A telephone exchange operator assumes that 7% of the phone calls are wrong numbers.
This means that [tex]p = 0.07[/tex]
Sample of 459 phone calls:
This means that [tex]n = 459[/tex]
Mean and standard deviation:
[tex]\mu = p = 0.07[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\sqrt{\frac{0.07*0.93}{459}}} = 0.0119[/tex]
What is the probability that the proportion of wrong numbers in a sample of 459 phone calls would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%?
Proportion below 0.07 - 0.03 = 0.04 or above 0.07 + 0.03 = 0.1. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, these probabilities are the same, which means that we find one of them and multiply by 2.
Probability the proportion is below 0.04.
p-value of Z when X = 0.04. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{0.04 - 0.07}{0.0119}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.52[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.52[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0059
2*0.0059 = 0.0118
0.0118 = 1.18% probability that the proportion of wrong numbers in a sample of 459 phone calls would differ from the population proportion by more than 3%

Answers
Answer:
0.5 liters of milk are available per child.
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount of milk available per children:
The amount of milk, in liters, available for x children is given by:
[tex]m(x) = \frac{25}{x}[/tex]
50 children are present on a day
This means that [tex]x = 50[/tex]
How much milk is available per child?
This is m(50). So
[tex]m(50) = \frac{25}{50} = 0.5[/tex]
