A geometric sequence is a sequence of numbers where the next term equals to
the previous term multiplied by a common factor (for example, (3, 6, 12, 24, ...)
is a geometric sequence with the first term ”3” and the common factor ”2”). If
the 5th term of a geometric sequence is 24 and the 7th term is 144, what is the
first term of the sequence?
(A) 2
(B) 3/2
(C) 2/3
(D) 1/3
(E) 1/4
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first term be a and the common ratio be r.
ATQ, ar^4=24 and ar^6=144, r=sqrt(6) and a=24/(sqrt(6))^2=24/36=2/3
Pencils are sold in a local store for 55 cents each. The factory has $1300 in fixed costs
plus 15 cents of additional expense for each pencil made. Assuming all
pencils manufactured can be sold, find the break-even point.
Break-even point:
Answer:
3250 pencils sold
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of pencils.
The profit from the pencils sold can be represented by 0.55x, and the cost from making the pencils can be represented by 1300 + 0.15x.
Set these two terms equal to each other, and solve for x:
0.55x = 1300 + 0.15x
0.4x = 1300
x = 3250
So, the break even point is at 3250 pencils sold.

Julie needs to cut 4 pieces of yarn, each with the same length, and a piece of yarn 7.75 inches long. let x represent the length of each of the equal pieces of yarn that julie decides to cut. what is the equation that can be used to determine the total length of all the yarn that she ends up cutting, y? is the graph of the equation continuous or discrete?
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of each of the equal piece of yarn. Since they are 4 equal pieces of yarn, then the total length of the equal pieces of yarn = 4x.
Also, besides cutting the 4 equal pieces of yarn Julie further cuts a yarn 7.75 inches long, therefore if y represent the total length of all the yarn that she ends up cutting, hence:
y = 4x + 7.75
Since the graph produced by this equation have all points connected to each other, hence this is a continuous graph.

An investigator compares the durability of two different compounds used in the manufacture of a certain automobile brake lining. A sample of 127 brakes using Compound 1 yields an average brake life of 42,814 miles. A sample of 163 brakes using Compound 2 yields an average brake life of 37,197 miles. Assume that the population standard deviation for Compound 1 is 1819 miles, while the population standard deviation for Compound 2 is 1401 miles. Determine the 98% confidence interval for the true difference between average lifetimes for brakes using Compound 1 and brakes using Compound 2.
Step 1 of 3 is Point estimate so 42,814 - 37,197 = 5,617
Step 2 of 3 :
Calculate the margin of error of a confidence interval for the difference between the two population means. Round your answer to six decimal places.
Step 3 of 3:
Construct the 98% confidence interval. Round your answers to the nearest whole number. (lower and upper endpoint)
Answer:
The point estimate is 5,617.
The margin of error of a confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is 454.18386 .
The 98% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (5163, 6071).
Step-by-step explanation:
Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.
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.
Subtraction between normal variables:
When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.
Compound 1:
127 brakes, average brake life of 42,814 miles, population standard deviation of 1819 miles. This means that:
[tex]\mu_1 = 42814[/tex]
[tex]s_1 = \frac{1819}{\sqrt{127}} = 161.41[/tex]
Compound 2:
163 brakes, average brake life of 37,197 miles, population standard deviation of 1401 miles. This means that:
[tex]\mu_2 = 37197[/tex]
[tex]s_2 = \frac{1401}{\sqrt{163}} = 109.73[/tex]
Distribution of the difference:
[tex]\mu = \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 42814 - 37197 = 5617[/tex]
The point estimate is 5,617.
[tex]s = \sqrt{s_1^2 + s_2^2} = \sqrt{161.41^2 + 109.73^2} = 195.18[/tex]
Confidence interval
The confidence interval is:
[tex]\mu \pm zs[/tex]
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = zs[/tex]
98% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.02[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.02}{2} = 0.99[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.327[/tex].
Margin of error:
[tex]M = zs = 195.18*2.327 = 454.18386 [/tex]
The margin of error of a confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is 454.18386 .
For the confidence interval, as we round to the nearest whole number, we round it 454. So
The lower bound of the interval is:
[tex]\mu - zs = \mu - M = 5617 - 454 = 5163[/tex]
The upper bound of the interval is:
[tex]\mu + zs = \mu + M = 5617 + 454 = 6071[/tex]
The 98% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means is (5163, 6071).

At what point on the curve x = 6t2 + 6, y = t3 − 2 does the tangent line have slope 1 /2 ?
Answer:
Hello,
P=(30,6)
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]x=6t^2+6\\y=t^3-2\\\\\dfrac{dx}{dt}= 12t\\\dfrac{dy}{dt}= 3t^2\\\\\dfrac{dy}{dx} =\dfrac{\dfrac{dy}{dt} }{\dfrac{dx}{dt} } =\dfrac{3t^2}{12t} =\dfrac{t}{4} \\\\\dfrac{t}{4} =\dfrac{1}{2} \Longrightarrow t=2\\\\\\x=6t^2+6=6*2^2+6=30\\\\y=t^3-2=2^2-2=8-2=6\\\\\\Tangence\ point=(30,6)\\[/tex]
The point on the curve x = 6t² + 6, y = t³ - 2 where the tangent line have slope 1/2 is (30, 6).
How to depict the point on the curve?From the information given, x = 6t² + 6, y = t³ - 2. We'll find the first order derivative of x and y which will be:
dx/dt = 12t
dy/dt = 3t²
Therefore, 3t²/12t = t/4, t = 2.
We'll put the value of t back into the equations.
x = 6t² + 6,
x = 6(2)² + 6
x = 24 + 6 = 30
y = t³ - 2.
y = (2)³ - 2
y = 8 - 2 = 6
In conclusion, the correct options is (30, 6).

Answer:
The Poisson's ratio for the material is 0.0134.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Poisson's ratio ([tex]\nu[/tex]), no unit, is the ratio of transversal strain ([tex]\epsilon_{t}[/tex]), in inches, to axial strain ([tex]\epsilon_{a}[/tex]), in inches:
[tex]\nu = -\frac{\epsilon_{t}}{\epsilon_{a}}[/tex] (1)
[tex]\epsilon_{a} = l_{a,f}-l_{a,o}[/tex] (2)
[tex]\epsilon_{t} = l_{t,f}-l_{t,o}[/tex] (3)
Where:
[tex]l_{a,o}[/tex] - Initial axial length, in inches.
[tex]l_{a,f}[/tex] - Final axial length, in inches.
[tex]l_{t,o}[/tex] - Initial transversal length, in inches.
[tex]l_{t,f}[/tex] - Final transversal length, in inches.
If we know that [tex]l_{a,o} = 61.2\,in[/tex], [tex]l_{a,f} = 61.235\,in[/tex], [tex]l_{t,o} = 2.7\,in[/tex] and [tex]l_{t,f} = 2.69953\,in[/tex], then the Poisson's ratio is:
[tex]\epsilon_{a} = 61.235\,in - 61.2\,in[/tex]
[tex]\epsilon_{a} = 0.035\,in[/tex]
[tex]\epsilon_{t} = 2.69953\,in - 2.7\,in[/tex]
[tex]\epsilon_{t} = -4.7\times 10^{-4}\,in[/tex]
[tex]\nu = - \frac{(-4.7\times 10^{-4}\,in)}{0.035\,in}[/tex]
[tex]\nu = 0.0134[/tex]
The Poisson's ratio for the material is 0.0134.

Step-by-step explanation:
First, the equation I'll be using for this problem is SA=2(wl+hl+hw)! Our width is 4m, our length is 3m, and our height is 2m. To begin to solve this problem we are going to input these values in to the equation above.
SA = 2(4 × 3 + 2 × 3 + 2 × 4)
Next, we are going to multiply our values inside the parenthesis based on the PEMDAS strategy (if you have any questions about this, feel free to ask below :).
SA = 2(12 + 6 + 8)
Now, we can add our values inside the parenthesis.
SA = 2(26)
Finally, all we have to do is distribute the 2 outside of the parenthesis to inside the parenthesis.
