Using the formula for the nth term of an arithmetic progression.
an = a + (n - 1)d
a(4) = a + 3d = 55
a(9) = a + 8d = 90
a(9) - a(4) => 5d = 35
d = 35/5 = 7.
From a(4): a = 55 - 3d = 55 - 3(7) = 55 - 21 = 34

a(2) = a + d = 34 + 7 = 41.

The random variable X, representing the number of cherries in a cherry puff, has the following probability distribution:x: 4 - 5
marta [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is the probability distribution of a random variable X

X 4 5 6 7 Total

P 0.2 0.4 0.3 0.1 1

x*p 0.8 2 1.8 0.7 5.3

x^2*p 3.2 10 10.8 4.9 28.9

a) E(X) = Mean of X = sum of xp = 5.3

Var(x) = 28.9-5.3^2=0.81

Std dev = square root of variance = 0.9

------------------------------------

b) For sample mean we have

Mean = 5.3

Variance = var(x)/n = \frac{0.81}{{36} } \\=0.0225

c) P(\bar X

How are the two functions f(x) = 0.7(6)x and g(x) = 0.7(6)–x related to each other?
Harlamova29_29 [7]
The answer
f(x) = 0.7(6)x = <span>f(x) = 0.7(6)^x, and  </span><span>g(x) = 0.7(6)–x= </span>g(x) = 0.7(6)^-x=1/<span>0.7(6)^x
so </span>
g(x) =1/<span>0.7(6)^x=1 /</span><span><span>f(x)

</span> the relationship between f and g are </span>g(x) =1 /<span>f(x) or </span><span>g(x) . <span>f(x) = 1</span> </span>

3 With 72 million bicycles, correct to the
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

  181 million km

Step-by-step explanation:

"Correct to the nearest unit" means the actual value might be 1/2 unit larger (or smaller) than the reported value.

The upper bound would be the product of the maximum number of bicycles and the maximum distance each travels:

  (72.5 · 10^6 bicycles)(2.5 km/bicycle) = 181.25 · 10^6 km

__

Since the given numbers are good to 2 significant figures (or so), we might reasonably put the upper bound as 180·10^6 km.

The average temperature for four days days was 22 degrees what must the temperature be on the fifth day in order to make 23 degr
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

27 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the average is to be 23 degrees over 5 days then the total of the temperatures will be 5*23 = 115 degrees.

The total over the first 4 days = 22*4 = 88 degrees, so the temperature on the fifth day has to be 115 - 88 = 27 degrees.
