Answer:

$a_{89}=1128$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given arithmetic progression is -16, -3, 10,...

We observe that the first term of this progression is $a_1=-16$ .

The constant difference is

$d=-3--16\\d=-3+16=13$

The 89th term of an arithmetic sequence is given by:

$a_{89}=a_1+88d$

We substitute the first term and the common difference to obtain:

$a_{89}=-16+88(13)$

We simplify to get:

$a_{89}=-16+1144$

This simplifies to:

$a_{89}=1128$

Write a real world problem that can be represented by the equation 3/4c=21

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer: Real world problem is "A student have c toffee he distribute $\frac{3}{4}$ th part of those toffees to his friends. He gave total 21 toffees to his friend".

Explanation:

Let a student have c number of toffees in his bag.

It is given that he distribute $\frac{3}{4}$ th part of those toffees to his friends.

The $\frac{3}{4}$ th part of c toffees is,

$\frac{3c}{4}$

The total number of distributed toffees is 21.

$\frac{3c}{4}=21$

It is the same as given equation.

If we change the equation in words it means the $\frac{3}{4}$ th part of a number c is 21.

Answer:

first blank: mean

second blank: greater than

third blank: increased

fourth blank: greater than

Step-by-step explanation:

I can't see the options in each blank, even though I completed them with reasonable options.

The MAD of a set of data is the average distance between each data value and the mean. 400 is further than the mean than the MAD. This, increases the variability of the originally data set. As a consequence, the inclusion of 400 will result in a greater MAD

Periodically, Merrill Lynch customers are asked to evaluate Merrill Lynch financial consultants and services. Higher ratings on

Vlada [557]

Answer:

See the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

H0: Consultant with more experience has the higher population mean service rating.

H1: Consultant with more experience doesn't have the higher population mean service rating.

(b)

t = 1.9923 (see the attached image)

(c)

The degrees of freedom for the test statistic,

df = 16

The P-value of the one tailed t- test with 16 degrees of freedom is,

P−value = tdist(X,df,tails)

P-value = tdist(1.9923,16,1)

P-value = 0.032

(d)

Since, P-value 0.032 is less than the significance level 0.05, there is an enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

Hence, there is a sufficient evidence to conclude that Consultant with more experience doesn't have the higher population mean service rating.

Hope this helps!

Alik [6]

-3 > -7
u have to remember, with negatives, the larger number is smaller in value.

when u plot these numbers on the number line, the number that is farthest to the left is less then...the number that is farthest to the right is greater then.

-3 is warmer because it is closer to zero then -7.
