Derive the explicit rule for the pattern: 3, 0, - 3, - 6, - 9, ...
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a1 = 3
d = -3
an = a1 + (n - 1)*d
an = a1 + (n - 1)*-3
Try it
Let n = 5
a5 = 3 + (5 - 1)*-3
a5 = 3 + 4*-3
a5 = 3 - 12
a5 = - 9 which is exactly what it should be.
The interesting one to try is n = 2
a2 = a1 + (2 - 1)*-3
a3 = 3 + 1(-3)
a3 = 3 - 3
a3 =0
Which is exactly what the second term is. It's interesting because you would never guess that 0 is what you get.
In an accelerated failure test, components are operated under extreme conditions so that a substantial number will fail in a rather short time. In such a test involving two types of microchips, 580 chips manufactured by an existing process were tested, and 125 of them failed. Then, 780 chips manufactured by a new process were tested, and 130 of them failed. Find a 90% confidence interval for the difference between the proportions of failures for chips manufactured by the two processes. (Round the final answers to four decimal places.) The 90% confidence interval is
Answer:
The 90% confidence interval is (0.0131, 0.0845).
Step-by-step explanation:
Before finding the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]
Subtraction between normal variables:
When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.
Old process:
125 out of 580, so:
[tex]p_O = \frac{125}{580} = 0.2155[/tex]
[tex]s_O = \sqrt{\frac{0.2155*0.7845}{580}} = 0.0171[/tex]
New process:
130 out of 780. So
[tex]p_N = \frac{130}{780} = 0.1667[/tex]
[tex]s_N = \sqrt{\frac{0.1667*0.8333}{780}} = 0.0133[/tex]
Distribution of the difference:
[tex]p = p_O - p_N = 0.2155 - 0.1667 = 0.0488[/tex]
[tex]s = \sqrt{s_O^2+s_N^2} = \sqrt{0.0171^2 + 0.0133^2} = 0.0217[/tex]
Confidence interval:
[tex]p \pm zs[/tex]
In which
z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
90% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.1[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.645[/tex].
The lower bound of the interval is:
[tex]p - zs = 0.0488 - 1.645*0.0217 = 0.0131[/tex]
The upper bound of the interval is:
[tex]p + zs = 0.0488 + 1.645*0.0217 = 0.0845[/tex]
The 90% confidence interval is (0.0131, 0.0845).
Please help!! Given the recursive formula shown, what are the first 4 terms of the sequence?
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
the fibrin definition tells us that the first term of the sequence a1 = 6
so, B is out.
and for every following term we always add 7 to every previous term to create the next one.
so, when I add 7 to 6, what is my second term in the sequence ? 7+6 = 13
not 42, not -7
therefore, only C is correct.
and 13+7 = 20

When printing an article of 2400 words, an entrepreneur decides to use two sizes of letters, using the largest one a printed page contains 1200 words. Using the smallest, the page contains 1500 words the article must occupy 17 full pages in the magazine how many pages must be printed using small letters?
Step-by-step explanation:
x= Number of small pages
y= Number of full pages
1 x + 1 y = 21 .............1
Total words
1200 x + 1500 y = 27000 .............2
Eliminate y
multiply (1)by -1500
Multiply (2) by 1
-1500 x -1500 y = -31500
1200 x + 1500 y = 27000
Add the two equations
-300 x = -4500
/ -300
x = 15
plug value of x in (1)
1 x + 1 y = 21
15 + y = 21
y = 21 -15
y = 6
y = 6
x= 15 Number of small pages
y= 6 Number of full pages

1.) Three numbers form a geometric sequence whose common ratio is 0.5. If the first is reduced to 10 more than one quarter its value, the second decreased by 10, and the third increased by 10 more than twice its value, the resulting three numbers form an arithmetic sequence. Determine the original three numbers.
Let x be the first number in the sequence, so the first three numbers are
{x, 0.5x, 0.5²x}
Then
{x/4 + 10, 0.5x - 10, 2(0.5²x) + 10}
is arithmetic, so there is some constant c such that
0.5x - 10 = x/4 + 10 + c ==> x/2 - 10 = x/4 + 10 + c
2(0.5²x) + 10 = 0.5x - 10 + c ==> x/2 + 10 = x/2 - 10 + c
Solve the second equation for c :
x/2 + 10 = x/2 - 10 + c
c = 20
Substitute this into the first equation and solve for x :
x/2 - 10 = x/4 + 10 + 20
x/4 = 40
x = 160
Then the terms are
{160, 80, 40}

Step-by-step explanation:
(I just finished this assignment.)
Tre's position at the pitcher's mound as the point (42.78, 42.78).
( x , y )
Hector is about 95 feet away from the pitcher's mound horizontal, (x axis).
Since we already have the correct y-coordinate, we need to solve for the correct x-coordinate.
x = 95 + 42.78
↓ ↓ ↓
95 + 42.78 = 137.72
Now all you need to do is write out the coordinates.

Using a directrix of y = 5 and a focus of (4, 1), what quadratic function is created?
HELP PLS
Answer:
(x-4)^2=-8(y-3)
This is a parabola.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the directrix is horizontal, the parabola faces up or down. Since the focus is below the directix it faces down. This means p will be negative in the equation (x-h)^2=4p(y-k).
p also tells us the half the distance between the focus and the directrix. The distance between 1 and 5 is 4, so p=-2.
The vertex is half way point between focus (4,1) and directrix y=5.
So the vertex is (4, [1+5]/2 )= (4 ,6/2)=(4,3). This is (h,k) in our equation.
(x-h)^2=4p(y-k)
(x-4)^2=4×-2(y-3)
(x-4)^2=-8(y-3)

f(x) = 2x^2 + 6x + 2
Answer:
-3/2 ±1/2 sqrt(5) = x
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 2x^2 + 6x + 2
Set the function equal to 0
0 = 2x^2 + 6x + 2
Factor out 2
0 = 2(x^2 + 3x + 1)
Divide by 2
0 = (x^2 + 3x + 1)
Subtract 1 from each side
-1 = x^2 +3x
Complete the square by dividing the x coefficient by 2 and then squaring
(3/2)^2 = 9/4
-1 +9/4 = x^2 +3x+9/4
-4/4+9/4 = (x+3/2) ^2
5/4 = (x+3/2) ^2
Taking the square root of each side
± sqrt(5/4) = sqrt( (x+3/2) ^2)
±1/2 sqrt(5) = (x+3/2)
Subtract 3/2 from each side
-3/2 ±1/2 sqrt(5) = x
