consider the geometric sequence: 1, 3, 9, 27, ...
if n is an integer, which of these functions generate the sequence?
a) a(n)=3^n for n greater than or equal to 0
b) b(n)=3(3)^n for n greater than or equal to 0
c) c(n)=3^n for n greater than or equal to 2
d) d(n)=3^n-1 for n greater than or equal to 2

PLS ANSWER ASAPP!!

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sequence is a geometric sequence

For an nth term in a geometric sequence

[tex]A(n) = a ({r})^{n - 1} [/tex]

where

n is the number of terms

a is the first term

r is the common ratio

To find n we must first find the common ratio

To find the common ratio divide the previous term by the next term

That's

r = 3/1 = 3 or r = 9/3 = 3

a = 1

Substitute the values into the above formula

That's

If n is an integer then

[tex]A(n) = 1 ({3})^{n - 1} [/tex]

[tex]A(n) = {3}^{n - 1} [/tex]

where n is greater than or equal to 2

Hope this helps you

Answer 2

The function that describes the sequence is the first one:

a(n) = 3ⁿ   fpr n ≥ 0.

Which function generates the sequence?

Here we have the following sequence:

1, 3, 9, 27, ...

We can see that all of these are powers of 3, and the function must behave like:

f(0) = 1

f(1) = 3

f(2) = 9

...

And so on, then the function must be:

a(n) = 3ⁿ

when n = 0 we have:

a(0) = 3⁰ = 1

When n = 1

a(1) = 3¹ = 3

And so on.

Then we can see that the correct option is the first one.

What is the coefficient of determination for two variables that have perfect positive linear correlation or perfect negative linear​ correlation? Interpret your answer.

Answers

Answer:

r^2 = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the  coefficient of determination for the two variables is shown below:

here the perfect positive linear correlation is r = 1

And, the negative linear correlation is r = -1

Based on this, the coefficient of determination is equivalent to the linear correlation coefficient square

[tex]r^2 = (\pm)^2 \\\\ = 1[/tex]

This above describes that variation that lies between the variables as explained by the linear regression line

The coefficient of determination for two variables that have perfect positive linear correlation or perfect negative linear correlation is denoted by; r² = (±1)² = 1

The mathematical computation of the coefficient of determination for two variables that have perfect positive linear correlation can be in two forms and is as follows;

The perfect positive linear correlation is denoted, r = 1

The negative linear correlation is denoted, r = -1

In lieu of this, the coefficient of determination is equivalent to the square of linear correlation coefficient.

r² = (±1)²

r² = 1

A trapezoid has sides of length 5 millimeters, 2 millimeters, 5 millimeters, and 6 millimeters.
What is the perimeter?

Answers

Answer:

18 millimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of any shape is the sum of the sides.  A trapezoid has four sides, so the perimeter is found by adding the four side lengths together.

The trapezoid in this problem has side lengths of 5 mm, 2 mm, 5 mm, and 6 mm.

Add the sides together.

5 mm + 2 mm + 5 mm + 6 mm

7 mm + 5 mm + 6mm

The time for service call follows a uniform distribution over the interval 20 to 60 minutes.
1. What is the probability that the service call takes longer than 30 minutes?
2. What is the interquartile range?
3. What is the 90th percentile?

Answers

Answer:

(1) 0.75

(2) 30

(3) 56

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X represent the time for service call.

It is provided that: [tex]X\sim Uni(20, 60)[/tex]

The probability density function of X is:

[tex]f_{X}(x)=\frac{1}{b-a};\ a<X<b[/tex]

(1)

Compute the probability that the service call takes longer than 30 minutes as follows:

[tex]P(X>30)=\int\limits^{60}_{30} {\frac{1}{60-20}} \, dx[/tex]

                 [tex]=\frac{1}{40}\times |x|^{60}_{30}\\\\=\frac{60-30}{40}\\\\=\frac{3}{4}\\\\=0.75[/tex]

Thus, the probability that the service call takes longer than 30 minutes is 0.75.

(2)

The Inter quartile range is the difference between the 75th and 25th percentile.

From part (1), we know that P (X > 30) = 0.75.

⇒ 1 - P (X > 30) = 0.75

⇒ P (X < 30) = 0.25

The 25th percentile is 30.

Compute the 75th percentile as follows:

[tex]P(X<x)=0.75\\\\\int\limits^{x}_{20} {\frac{1}{60-20}} \, dx=0.75\\\\\frac{1}{40}\times |x|^{x}_{20}=0.75\\\\x-20=40\times 0.75\\\\x=30+20\\\\x=50[/tex]

The 75th percentile is 50.

Then the inter quartile range is:

[tex]IQR=P_{75}-P_{25}[/tex]

        [tex]=50-20\\=30[/tex]

Thus, the inter quartile range is 30.

(3)

Compute the 90th percentile as follows:

[tex]P(X<x)=0.90\\\\\int\limits^{x}_{20} {\frac{1}{60-20}} \, dx=0.90\\\\\frac{1}{40}\times |x|^{x}_{20}=0.90\\\\x-20=40\times 0.90\\\\x=36+20\\\\x=56[/tex]

The 90th percentile is 56.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is given thus:

Suppose that computer literacy among people ages 40 and older is being studied and that the accompanying tables describes the probability distribution for four randomly selected people, where x is the number that are computer literate. Is it unusual to find four computer literates among four randomly selected people?

x      P(x)

0     0.16

1      0.25

2     0.36

3      0.15

4      0.08

Yes No

ANSWER:

The odds that this will occur according to the chart are 0.08, or 8%, so although this is unlikely, it's not terribly unusual.

⇒ NO

So from the following we can say it is not unusual to find four (4) computer literates among four randomly selected people.

ok, so P(1) + P(2) + P(3) + P(4) + P(0)  = 0.16+0.25+0.36+0.15+0.08 = 1

Whereas the chance of finding four (4) out of four (4) computer iteration is low when compared to other factors.

A bag contains 4 red, 6 blue, 4 yellow and 2 green marbles. Once a marble is selected, it is not replaced. What is the probability that in 3 successive draws you will get exactly one blue, one red and no green

Answers

Answer:

0.0857

Step-by-step explanation:

What we need is, B R -G, successively. We do not add each probability, but multiply them.

P(1st marble is B) = 6 / 16

P(2nd marble is R) = 4 / 15

*your sample space decreases because you took one marble already before, the Blue one

P(3rd marble is not Green) = 12/14

** it's 12 because you took 2 non-Green marbles before

*** it's 14 because you took 2 marbles before

To arrive at the final answer, just multiply all probability.

Find the GCF of
66 yx, 30.x²)

Answers

Let's first find the greatest common factor of 66 and 30.

To do this, start by dividing 66 by every natural

number you can until you hit repeat factors.

Also note, we need factors that are natural numbers! No decimals!

66 ÷ 1 = 66

66 ÷ 2 = 33

66 ÷ 3 = 22

66 ÷ 6 = 11

We can stop here because if we continue dividing, we hit repeat factors.

So the factors of 66 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 11, 22, 33, and 66.

Now do the same for 30.

30 ÷ 1 = 30

30 ÷ 2 = 15

30 ÷ 3  = 10

30 ÷ 5 = 6

The factors of 30 are 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, and 30.

Now look for the largest number shared by the two lists.

In this case, we have 6 as our gcf for the numbers.

Now let's do the variables.

To qualify for the Greatest Common Factor,

the variable must appear in every monomial.

Since the y doesn't appear in every monomial, it does not qualify.

If the variable does appear in every monomial, the Greatest

Common Factor will use the smallest power on that variable.

In this case, the smallest power between x and x² is x.

What is the relationship between the linear correlation coefficient r and the slope of a regression​ line?

Answers

Answer:

The relationship is that the value of the linear correlation coefficient will always have the same sign as the value of the slope of a regression​ line.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of regression is simply the covariance between X and Y divided by the variance of X i.e Cov(X, Y)/Var X. Whereas, the correlation is the covariance divided by the product of the standard deviation. Thus, we can say that the correlation is the product of the gradient of the regression line and the ratio of the standard deviations.

Thus, it means when the correlation is positive, the slope is also positive and vice versa.

The sign of the correlation coefficient, r, is always the same as that of the slope of the regression line.

Linear Correlation Coefficient and Slope of A Regression LineSlope of a regression line is gotten by dividing the covariance of between X and Y by the variance of X.On the other hand, linear correlation coefficient is gotten by dividing the covariance by the standard deviation.Thus, if the slope of regression line is positive, the correlation coefficient will be positive too and vice versa.

Therefore, the sign of the correlation coefficient, r, is always the same as that of the slope of the regression line.
