We are adding 3,5,7,9..... each time
The sequence is not arithmetic because we are not adding a constant. It is not geometric since we are not multiplying by a constant term each time
There is no common difference or common ratio.
The explicit formula is
an =n^2 +3
The recursive formula is
(n+1)^2 +3 - (n^2 +3)
n^2 +2n+1+3 - ( n^2+3)
2n+1
a sub(n+1) = a sub( n) + 2n+1
The 10th term
an = n^2 +3
Let n=10
an = 10^2+3
= 100+3
= 103
summation

since the numbers are increasing and greater than 1 the sum does not exist

Decide whether the pair of ratios form a proportion 15/12=4.5/3.6
Answer: Yes they form a proportion. The given equation is a true equation.
==========================================
Explanation:
The idea is that if we have
a/b = c/d
then that it is the same as
a*d = b*c
This is known as cross multiplication. We'll use this rule to get
15/12 = 4.5/3.6
15*3.6 = 12*4.5
54 = 54
We got the same value on both sides, meaning that the last equation is true. Consequently, it means the first equation is true as well (all three equations are true).
--------
You could also use your calculator to see that
15/12 = 1.25
4.5/3.6 = 1.25
showing that 15/12 = 4.5/3.6 is a true equation and the ratios form a proportion.
Answer:
15/12=4.5/3.6 = True

Musah stands at the centre of a rectangular field. He first takes 50 steps north, then 25 steps
west and finally 50 steps on a bearing of 3150
.
i. Sketch Musah’s movement
ii. How far west is Musah’s final point from the centre?
iii. How far north is Musah’s final point from the centre?
iv. Describe how you would guide a JHS student to find the bearing and distance of
Musah’s final point from the centre.
Answer:
ii. 75 steps
iii. 75 steps
iv. 106 steps, and [tex]315^{0}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Musah's starting point be A, his waiting point after taking 50 steps northward and 25 steps westward be B, and his stopping point be C.
ii. From the second attachment, Musah's distance due west from A to C (AD) can be determined as;
bearing at B = [tex]315^{0}[/tex], therefore <BCD = [tex]45^{0}[/tex]
To determine distance AB,
[tex]/AB/^{2}[/tex] = [tex]/50/^{2}[/tex] + [tex]/25/^{2}[/tex]
= 25000 + 625
= 3125
AB = [tex]\sqrt{3125}[/tex]
= 55.90
AB ≅ 56 steps
Thus, AC = 50 steps + 56 steps
= 106 steps
From ΔACD,
Sin [tex]45^{0}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x}{106}[/tex]
⇒ x = 106 × Sin [tex]45^{0}[/tex]
= 74.9533
≅ 75 steps
Musah's distance west from centre to final point is 75 steps
iii. From the secon attachment, Musah's distance north, y, can be determined by;
Cos [tex]45^{0}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{y}{106}[/tex]
⇒ y = 106 × Cos [tex]45^{0}[/tex]
= 74.9533
≅ 75 steps
Musah's distance north from centre to final point is 75 steps.
iv. Musah's distance from centre to final point is AC = AB + BC
= 50 steps + 56 steps
= 106 steps
From ΔACD,
Tan θ = [tex]\frac{75}{75}[/tex]
= 1.0
θ = [tex]Tan^{-1}[/tex] 1.0
= [tex]45^{0}[/tex]
Musah's bearing from centre to final point = [tex]45^{0}[/tex] + [tex]270^{0}[/tex]
= [tex]315^{0}[/tex]
how do you figure out ratios? the problem is 12 quarters to 34 dollars. thanks
Step-by-step explanation:
When you have a ratio, you put one number as the numerator and than one number as the denominator.
so it would be (12/34)=(x/68)
In this example I made the ratio you are comparing it to have 68 dollars, so when you solve for the amount of quarters you need it should be 24, since all of the numbers in this example are just being doubled.
To solve for x, you multiply 68 on both sides of the equation, 68×(12/34)=x
24=x
So this proves that this is how ratios, are used. It also does not matter what number you place on the numerator or denominator.
Cancel the common factor of the numerator and the denominator and write specified expression
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello,
I hope you mean to cancel the common factor that exists in numerator and denominator,right.
so, Let's look for the common factor,
here, the expression is,
=4(x-2)/ (x+5)(x-2)
so, here we find the common factor is (x-2)
now, we have to cancel it. And after cancelling we get,
=4/(x+5)
Note:{ we cancel the common factor if the common factors are in multiply form.}
Hope it helps

Using 2 points: (1,3/4) and ( 4,3) from the table;
= (3 - 3/4) / ( 4 - 1)
= 2.25/3
= 0.75 which is 3/4 which is the same as the slope of the function in the equation.
The origin is the y-intercept for the function expressed in the table.
Slope of function in table is known to be 0.75. Find c to complete equation.

We select a sample of 400 plain M&M’s and found the following: Color Blue Orange Green Red Yellow Brown Frequency 30 48 55 66 70 131
Is there evidence to doubt the color distribution claimed by the website? Use =0.05
Answer:
Calculated χ² = 13.425
χ² (5,0.025) >14.45 and χ²(5,0.975) <1.24
The given data does not fall in the critical region so we accept H0 and conclude there is no evidence to doubt the color distribution claimed by the website.
Step-by-step explanation:
Color Blue Orange Green Red Yellow Brown
Frequency 30 48 55 66 70 131
Expected 40 40 40 80 80 120
H0: The bag of plain M&Ms is made up of 10% blue, 10% orange, 10% green, 20% red, 20% yellow, and 30% brown
Ha: The color distribution is not equal to the distribution stated in the null hypothesis.
Calculate chi square
χ² = (30-40)² /40 + (48-40)²/40 + (55-40)²/40 + (66-80)²/80 + (70-80)²/80 + (131-120)²/120
χ² = 2.5 + 1.6 + 5.625 + 2.45 + 1.25= 13.425
The critical region for χ² for 5 degrees of freedom with ∝= 0.05 is
χ² (5,0.025) >14.45 and χ²(5,0.975) <1.24
The given data does not fall in the critical region so we accept H0 and conclude there is no evidence to doubt the color distribution claimed by the website.
The head of a computer science department is interested in estimating the proportion of students entering the department who will choose the new computer engineering option. Suppose there is not information about the proportion of students who might choose the option. What size sample should the department head take if he wants to be 95% confident that the estimate is within 0.10 of the true proportion
Answer:
96
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given information:
At 95% Confidence interval level,Level of significance [tex]\alpha[/tex] 0.05, the value of Z from the standard normal tables = 1.96
Margin of Error = 0.10
Let assume that the estimated proportion = 0.5
therefore; the sample size n can be determined by using the formula: [tex]n =(\dfrac{Z}{E})^2 \times p\times (1-p)[/tex]
[tex]n =(\dfrac{1.96}{0.1})^2 \times 0.5\times (1-0.5)[/tex]
[tex]n =(19.6)^2 \times 0.5\times (0.5)[/tex]

A recent study of the relationship between social activity and education for a sample of corporate executives showed the following results. Social Activity Education Above Average Average Below Average College 30 20 10 High School 20 40 90 Grade School 10 50 130 Using 0.05 as the significance level, what is the critical value for the test statistic
Answer:
9.488
Step-by-step explanation:
The critical value is found by first assessing which statistical test should be used.
We are interested in investigating relationship between social activity and education so chi-square test would be appropriate.
We have 3 rows and 3 columns. The degree of freedom for chi-square critical value is (r-1)(c-1)=(3-1)(3-1)=2*2=4
Chi-square critical value(0.05,4)= 9.488
The chart shows a certain city's population by age. Assume that the selections are independent events. If 8 residents of this city are selected at random, find the probability that the first 2 are 65 or older, the next 3 are 25-44 years old, the next 2 are 24 or younger, and the last is 45-64 years old.
Answer:
0.000014
Step-by-step explanation:
The chart is not provided so i will use an example chart to explain the answer. Here is a sample chart:
City X's Population by Age
0-24 years old 33%
25-44 years old 22%
45-64 years old 21%
65 or older 24%
In order to find probability of independent events we find the probability of each event occurring separately and then multiply the calculated probabilities together in the following way:
P(A and B) = P(A) * P(B)
probability that the first 2 are 65 or older
Let A be the event that the first 2 are 65 or older
The probability of 65 or older 24% i.e. 0.24
So the probability that first 2 are 65 or older is:
0.24(select resident 1) * 0.24(select resident 2)
P(A) = 0.24 * 0.24
= 0.0576
P(A) = 0.0576
probability that the next 3 are 25-44 years old
Let B be the event that the next 3 are 25-44 years old
25-44 years old 22% i.e. 0.22
So the probability that the next 3 are 25-44 years old is:
0.22 * 0.22* 0.22
P(B) = 0.22 * 0.22 * 0.22
= 0.010648
P(B) = 0.010648
probability that next 2 are 24 or younger
Let C be the event that the next 2 are 24 or younger
0-24 years old 33% i.e. 0.33
So the probability that the next 2 are 24 or younger is:
0.33 * 0.33
P(C) = 0.33 * 0.33
= 0.1089
P(C) = 0.1089
probability that last is 45-64 years old
Let D be the event that last is 45-64 years old
45-64 years old 21% i.e. 0.21
So the probability that last is 45-64 years old is:
0.21
P(D) = 0.21
So probability of these independent events is computed as:
P(A and B and C and D) = P(A) * P(B) * P(C) * P(C)
= 0.0576 * 0.010648 * 0.1089 * 0.21
= 0.000014

. One sample has M = 18 and a second sample has M = 14. If the pooled variance for the two samples is 16, what is the value of Cohen’s d?
Answer:
Cohen's d : 1.00
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that M₁ = 18, and M₂ = 14. Given that the pooled variance for the these two samples are 16, S²Pooled = 16, and therefore S - pooled = 4.
The formula to solve for the value of Cohen's d is as follows,
d = M₁ - M₂ / S - pooled,
d = 18 - 14 / 4 = 4 / 4 = 1
Therefore the value of Cohen's d = 1

(A) 16
(B) 26
(0) 32
(D) 48
Answer:
(D) 48
Step-by-step explanation:
Let English book = x
Let french book = y
In 1995 x= 10
Y= 7
In 1996
Y = 2x
Total book read in the two years
0.6(Total) = y

Consider the given vertices of triangle are A(-3,-3), B(-3,2) and C(1,2).
Distance formula:
[tex]d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]
Using distance formula, we get
[tex]AB=\sqrt{(-3-(-3))^2+(2-(-3))^2}[/tex]
[tex]AB=\sqrt{(0)^2+(5)^2}[/tex]
[tex]AB=\sqrt{25}[/tex]
[tex]AB=5[/tex]
Similarly,
[tex]BC=\sqrt{(1-(-3))^2+(2-2)^2}=4[/tex]
[tex]AC=\sqrt{(1-(-3))^2+(2-(-3))^2}=\sqrt{16+25}=\sqrt{41}[/tex]
From the above calculation it is clear that AC>AB and AC>BC.
According to Pythagoras theorem, in a right angle triangle, the square of largest side is equal to the sum of squares of two small sides.

Given a dataset with the following properties:
mean = 50
median = 40
standard deviation = 5
What is the shape of the distribution?
Answer:
The distribution is positively skewed.
Step-by-step explanation:
A measure of skewness is defined in such a way that the measure should always be zero when the distribution is symmetric and measure should be a pure number i.e independent of origin and units of measurement.
The shape of the distribution can be found by finding the coefficient of skewness.
The coefficient of skewness can be found by
Sk= 3(Mean-Median)/ Standard Deviation
Sk= 3( 50-40)5= 30/5=6
The shape will be positively skewed.
In a positively skewed distribution the mean > median > mode. It has a long right tail.
Using the skewness formula, it is found that the distribution is right-skewed.
------------------
The skewness of a data-set with mean M, median [tex]M_e[/tex] and standard deviation s is given by:[tex]S = \frac{3(M - M_e)}{s}[/tex]
If |S| < 0.5, the distribution is said to be symmetric.If S <-0.5, the distribution is left-skewed.If S > 0.5, the distribution is right-skewed.------------------
Mean of 50, thus, [tex]M = 50[/tex]Median of 40, thus [tex]M_e = 40[/tex]Standard deviation of 5, thus, [tex]s = 5[/tex]The coefficient is:
[tex]S = \frac{3(M - M_e)}{s} = \frac{3(50 - 40)}{5} = \frac{30}{5} = 6[/tex]
Thus, the distribution is right-skewed.

The solution system to 3y-2x=-9 and y=-2x+5
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{(3,-1)}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
Well to find the solution the the given system,
3y - 2x = -9
y = -2x + 5
So to find x lets plug in -2x + 5 for y in 3y - 2x = -9.
3(-2x + 5) - 2x = -9
Distribute
-6x + 15 - 2x = -9
-8x + 15 = -9
-15 to both sides
-8x = -24
Divide -8 to both sides
x = 3
Now that we have x which is 3, we can plug in 3 for x in y = -2x + 5.
y = -2(3) + 5
y = -6 + 5
y = -1
So the solution is (3,-1).
Hope this helps :)
