Which of the following are possible explicit formulas for the nth term of the constant velocity sequence below? Check all that a
oksano4ka [1.4K]
We have an arithmetic progression:
Nth=an
an=a₁+(n-1)d
a₁ is the first term.
n=number of terms.
d=common difference

10,17,24,31...
a₁=10
d=a₂-a₁=17-10=7

Therefore:
Nth=an
an=a₁+(n-1)d
an=10+(n-1)7
an=10+7n-7
an=7n+3.

Therefore: the formula for the nth is, an=a+(n-1), in this case; an=7n+3,

To check:
a₁=7*1+3=10
a₂=7*2+3=17
a₃=7*3+3=24
a₄=7*4+3=31
a₅=7*5+3=38.......

How to factorise 5h^2-12hg​
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

h(5h-12g)

Step-by-step explanation:

5h^2-12hg

When we factor expressions, we look for factors within the terms that are alike, or in other words, we look for common factors. Here, 5h^2 and 12hg only have one common factor: h. Therefore, to factorize this expression, divide both terms by h.

= h(\frac{5h^2}{h}-\frac{12hg}{h}  )\\= h(5h-12g)

Now, we've "carried" h out of the expression and have therefore factored it.

I hope this helps!

(b) A department store has 7,000 charge accounts. The comptroller takes a random sample of 36 of
galben [10]

Answer:

a.0.8664

b. 0.23753

c. 0.15866

Step-by-step explanation:

The comptroller takes a random sample of 36 of the account balances and calculates the standard deviation to be N42.00. If the actual mean (1) of the account balances is N175.00, what is the probability that the sample mean would be between

a. N164.50 and N185.50?

b. greater than N180.00?

c. less than N168.00?

We solve the above question using z score formula

z = (x-μ)/σ/√n where

x is the raw score,

μ is the population mean = N175

σ is the population standard deviation = N42

n is random number of sample = 36

a. Between N164.50 and N185.50?

For x = N 164.50

z = 164.50 - 175/42 /√36

z = -1.5

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x = 164.50) = 0.066807

For x = N185.50

z = 185.50 - 175/42 /√36

z =1.5

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x=185.50) = 0.93319

Hence:

P(x = 185.50) - P(x =164.50)

= 0.93319 - 0.066807

= 0.866383

Approximately = 0.8664

b. greater than N180.00?

x > N 180

Hence:

z = 180 - 175/42 /√36

z = 5/42/6

z = 5/7

= 0.71429

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<180) = 0.76247

P(x>180) = 1 - P(x<180) = 0.23753

c. less than N168.00?

x < N168.

z = 168 - 175/42 /√36

z = -7/42/6

z = -7/7

z = -1

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<168) = 0.15866
