Abraham is writing a recursive function for the geometric sequence:
24, 12, 6, 3,
Khan Academy Problem PLEASE HELP
Answer:
a1 = 24
an = an-1 × 1/2, n >1
Step-by-step explanation:
a geometric sequence is a sequence where we multiply every previous term by a certain factor to create the next term.
so, we multiply 24 by something to get 12.
and then 12 by the same something to get 6.
and then 6 by the and something to get 3.
do you see the pattern ? hmmm ?
right, we always divide by 2 (or multiply by 1/2).
the starting value a1 = 24
so,
an = an-1 × 1/2, n>1
or
[tex]an = a1 \times {(1 \div 2)}^{n - 1} [/tex]
n>1

Scale 1 cm: 2 m
The width of the actual garden patio according to the scale drawing is 14 meters.
What is an equation?An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.
An independent variable is a variable that does not depends on other variable while a dependent variable is a variable that depends on other variable.
Given the scale of 1 cm : 2 m
For a patio of 7 cm, then:
Actual patio = 7 cm / (1 cm/ 2m) = 14 m

Betty received $ 500,000 from a life insurance policy to be distributed to her as an annuity certain in 10 equal annual installments with the first payment made immediately. On the day she receives her third payment, she is offered a monthly perpetuity of X in lieu of the future annual payments. The first payment will be made in exactly one month. The effective annual rate of interest is 8 %. Determine the value of X.
9514 1404 393
Answer:
annual payment: $68,995.13monthly payment in perpetuity: X = $2394.76Step-by-step explanation:
a) For payments made at the beginning of the period, the annuity is called an "annuity due." The formula in the first attachment tells how to compute the payment for a given present value ($500,000), number of periods (N=10), and interest rate (i=0.08).
pmt = $500,000/(1 +(1 -(1 +i)^(-N+1))/i) = $500,000/(1 +(1 -(1.08^-9))/.08)
pmt ≈ $68,995.13 . . . . annual payment
__
b) After the first payment, the account balance is ...
$500,000 -68,995.13 = $431,004.87
After subsequent payments, the account balance will be ...
$431,004.87×1.08 -68,995.13 = $396,490.13 . . . after 2nd payment
$396,490.13×1.08 -68,995.13 = $359,214.21 . . . after 3rd payment
The payment amount that can be made in perpetuity is the amount of the monthly interest on this balance:
X = $359,214.21 × (0.08/12) = $2394.76

if ABCD is a parallelogram,find m>D and angle C=(9×-1) and angle A=(13×-25)
9514 1404 393
Answer:
∠C = ∠A = 53°
∠D = 127°
Step-by-step explanation:
Opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent, so ...
∠A = ∠C
13x -25 = 9x -1
4x = 24
x = 6
∠C = ∠A = 9(6) -1
∠C = ∠A = 53°
Adjacent angles of a parallelogram are supplementary.
∠D = 180 -∠C
∠D = 180 -(9(6) -1) = 180 -53
∠D = 127°
A researcher conducts a hypothesis test and concludes that his hypothesis is correct. Explain why this conclusion is never an appropriate decision in hypothesis testing.
Answer:
we use the terms, the hypothesis is incorrect or we lack sufficient evidence to declare the hypothesis incorrect. in hypothesis testing
Step-by-step explanation:
The conclusion made by the researcher after conducting a hypothesis test ( i.e. hypothesis is correct ) is not the right decision because in hypothesis testing we either reject the Null hypothesis or we fail to reject the Null hypothesis.
These conclusions can be made when;
P-value < ∝ ( reject null hypothesis ) and P-value > ∝ ( fail to reject null hypothesis )
and We do not use the term the hypothesis is correct But we use these terms, the hypothesis is incorrect or we lack sufficient evidence to declare the hypothesis incorrect.
he following chart reports the number of cell phones sold at a big-box retail store for the last 26 days. a. What are the maximum and the minimum numbers of cell phones sold in a day? b. Using the median, what is the typical number of cell phones sold?
Answer:
Maximum = 19
Minimum = 4
Median = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The maximum number of phone sold per day is the value to the right of the horizontal axis as the values are arranged in ascending order ; Hence, the maximum number of phones sold per day is 19
Also, the minimum number of phones sold per day is the value to the left of the plot, Hence, minimum number of phones sold per day is 14.
The Median value : 4, 9, 14, 19
The median = 1/2(n+1)th term
1/2(5)th term = 2.5 th term
Median (9 + 14) /2 = 13 /2 = 11.5 = 12 phones

Estimate the square root between two consecutive whole numbers of sqrt [55]
9514 1404 393
Answer:
7.4 . . . . between 7 and 8
Step-by-step explanation:
55 is between the perfect squares 49 = 7² and 64 = 8². Using linear interpolation, the square root is approximately 7 +(55-49)/(64-49) = 7 6/15 = 7.4
√55 ≈ 7.4 . . . . approximate root by linear interpolation
_____
Additional comment
A way to improve the estimate of the root is to use the "Babylonian method" of iterating the root. Divide the original number (55) by the estimate of the root, and average that result with the estimate:
next best guess = (55/7.4 +7.4)/2 = 7 77/185 ≈ 7.4162_162(repeating)
This matches the actual root when rounded to 4 decimal places. The number of accurate decimal places approximately doubles with each iteration.
__
Another way to improve the estimate is to modify the fractional portion. (The above method converges on a root more quickly.) For this, the iteration of the fractional part of the root is ...
next fractional part = 6/(14 +(fractional part))
where 6/14 is the linear estimate fractional value with 1 subtracted from its denominator.
For one iteration, the new estimate of the fractional part is 6/(14 +6/15) = 5/12, so the root estimate is about 7.4167 compared to the above 7.4162.

equation for perpendicular to the line -7x + 3y = -10j contains the point (-2,-4)
Answer:
y = 7/3x + 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
-7x + 3y = -10
3y = 7x - 10
y = 7/3x - 10/3
-4 = 7/3(-2) + b
-4 = -14/3 + b
2/3 = b
A psychology professor assigns letter grades on a test according to the following scheme. A: Top 14% of scores B: Scores below the top 14% and above the bottom 65% C: Scores below the top 35% and above the bottom 16% D: Scores below the top 84% and above the bottom 9% F: Bottom 9% of scores Scores on the test are normally distributed with a mean of 68.4 and a standard deviation of 9.7. Find the numerical limits for a B grade. Round your answers to the nearest whole number, if necessary.
Answer:
The numerical limits for a B grade are 72 and 79, that is, a score between 72 and 79 results in a B grade.
Step-by-step explanation:
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.
Scores on the test are normally distributed with a mean of 68.4 and a standard deviation of 9.7.
This means that [tex]\mu = 68.4, \sigma = 9.7[/tex]
Find the numerical limits for a B grade.
Below the 100 - 14 = 86th percentile and above the 65th percentile.
65th percentile:
X when Z has a p-value of 0.65, so X when Z = 0.385.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]0.385 = \frac{X - 68.4}{9.7}[/tex]
[tex]X - 68.4 = 0.385*9.7[/tex]
[tex]X = 72[/tex]
86th percentile:
X when Z has a p-value of 0.86, so X when Z = 1.08.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]1.08 = \frac{X - 68.4}{9.7}[/tex]
[tex]X - 68.4 = 1.08*9.7[/tex]
[tex]X = 79[/tex]
The numerical limits for a B grade are 72 and 79, that is, a score between 72 and 79 results in a B grade.
what is the percent decrease on a Tv that has been marked down from $550 to $420? round to the nearest tenth
The percent decrease on a TV after the markdown to the nearest tenth is 23.6%.
What is the percent decrease on the TV after the markdown?The percent decrease formula can be expressed as:
Percent decrease = [( original value - new value ) / original value ] × 100%
Given the data in the question:
The original value of the TV = $550
New value after markdown = $420
Percent decrease =?
Plug the given values into the above formula and solve for the percent decrease.
Percent decrease = [( original value - new value ) / original value ] × 100%
Percent decrease = [( 550 - 420 ) / 550 ] × 100%
Percent decrease = [ 130 / 550 ] × 100%
Percent decrease = 0.2363 × 100%
Percent decrease = 23.6%
Therefore, the percent decrease is 23.6%.
