Answer:

Option C. 3, -2, -7, -12....

Step-by-step explanation:

The sequence is defined recursively using the formula f(n+1) = f(n) - 5

We have to identify the sequence generated by this formula.

B). 1, -5, 25, -125.....

f(n+1) = -5 and f(n) = 1

Therefore - 5 = 1 - 5

⇒ -5 ≠ -4

This sequence is not following the formula.

B). 2, 10, 50, 250.........

f(n+1) = 10 and f(n) = 2

Now we use the formula

10 = 2 - 5

10 ≠ -3

This sequence is not following the formula.

C). 3, -2, -7, -12

f(n+1) = -2 and f(n) = 3

We put this value in the formula

-2 = 3 - 5

-2 = -2

Therefore , the sequence is following the formula.

D). 4, 9, 14, 19........

f(n+1) = 9 and f(n) = 4

9 = 4 - 5

9 ≠ -1

Therefore the formula is not applicable to form this sequence.

Option C. is the answer.

In circle A shown, BC || DE , mBC=58° and mDE=142°. Determine the measure of ZCFE . Show how you arrived at your answer.
AysviL [449]

Answer:

< CFE = 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

To better understand the solution, see attachment for the diagram.

Given:

BC parallel to DE

Measure of Arc BD = 58°

Measure of Arc DE = 142°

First step: Draw a diameter that passes through the centre of the circle and name it. In this case, the diameter is line ST.

The line ST divides the arc BD and arc DE into half.

That is:

Arc SC = 1/2(arc BC) =1/2(58)

Arc SC = 29°

Arc TE = 1/2(arc DE) =1/2(142)

Arc TE = 71°

Arc SC + Arc CE + Arc TE = 180° (Sum of angles in a semicircle

29° + Arc CE  + 71° = 180°

Arc CE + 100° = 180°

Arc CE = 180-100

Arc CE = 80°

Inscribed angle = 1/2(intercepted angle)

<CFE = 1/2(Arc CE )

<CFE = 1/2(80)

< CFE = 40°

From a survey of coworkers you find that 32​% of 150 have already received this​ year's flu vaccine. An approximate 98​% confide
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

a) Narrower

b) Narrower

c) Wider            

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Proportion of coworker who received flu vaccine = 32​%

98​% confidence interval: (0.231​, 0.409​)

Confidence interval:

\hat{p}\pm z_{stat}\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}

​a) Sample size had been 600 instead of 150​

If we increase the sample size, thus the standard error of the interval decreases.

Since the standard error decreases, the confidence interval become narrower.

b) Confidence level had been 90​% instead of 98​%

As the confidence level increases, the confidence interval becomes narrower. This is due to a smaller value of z-statistic at 90% confidence level.​

c) Confidence level had been 99​% instead of 98​%

As the confidence level increases, the width of the confidence interval increases and the confidence interval become wider. This is because of a larger value of z-statistic at 99% confidence interval.
