Problem 4a
The instructions are incomplete. You set up the recursive formula, but didn't ask any question about said formula.
I'll assume that your teacher wants you to list out a few terms. I'll list out the first five terms.
The notation a_1 = 4 is the same as writing [tex]a_1 = 4[/tex] where the '1' is a subscript. It tells us that the first term is 4.
The nth term a_n or [tex]a_n[/tex] is defined as such
[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\[/tex]
Notice how if we replaced n with 2, then we get
[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\a_2 = 2*(1/3 + a_{2-1})\\\\a_2 = 2*(1/3 + a_1)\\\\[/tex]
So the second term is directly tied to the first term, or it is dependent on it.
We'll replace a_1 with 4 to get the following
[tex]a_2 = 2*(1/3 + a_1)\\\\a_2 = 2*(1/3 + 4)\\\\a_2 = 2*(1/3 + 12/3)\\\\a_2 = 2*(13/3)\\\\a_2 = 26/3\\\\[/tex]
So the second term is 26/3.
As you can guess, the third term is going to be found in a similar fashion
[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\a_3 = 2*(1/3 + a_{3-1})\\\\a_3 = 2*(1/3 + a_2)\\\\a_3 = 2*(1/3 + 26/3)\\\\a_3 = 2*(27/3)\\\\a_3 = 2*(9)\\\\a_3 = 18\\\\[/tex]
So 18 is the third term.
We'll repeat for n = 4 to get the fourth term.
[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\a_4 = 2*(1/3 + a_{4-1})\\\\a_4 = 2*(1/3 + a_3)\\\\a_4 = 2*(1/3 + 18)\\\\a_4 = 2*(1/3 + 54/3)\\\\a_4 = 2*(55/3)\\\\a_4 = 110/3\\\\[/tex]
The fourth term is 110/3.
Lastly, we'll plug in n = 5
[tex]a_n = 2*(1/3 + a_{n-1})\\\\a_5 = 2*(1/3 + a_{5-1})\\\\a_5 = 2*(1/3 + a_4)\\\\a_5 = 2*(1/3 + 110/3)\\\\a_5 = 2*(111/3)\\\\a_5 = 2*(37)\\\\a_5 = 74\\\\[/tex]
The fifth term is 74.
Answer: The first five terms are 4, 26/3, 18, 110/3, 74==============================================================
Problem 4b
Again, the instructions are missing. I'll assume the same thing as problem 4a.
[tex]a_1 = 6[/tex] is the first term
Plug n = 2 into the first equation to get
[tex]a_n = \frac{n}{a_{n-1}}\\\\a_2 = \frac{2}{a_{2-1}}\\\\a_2 = \frac{2}{a_{1}}\\\\a_2 = \frac{2}{6}\\\\a_2 = \frac{1}{3}\\\\[/tex]
The second term is 1/3.
Repeat for n = 3
[tex]a_n = \frac{n}{a_{n-1}}\\\\a_3 = \frac{3}{a_{3-1}}\\\\a_3 = \frac{3}{a_{2}}\\\\a_3 = \frac{3}{1/3}\\\\a_3 = 3\div\frac{1}{3}\\\\a_3 = 3\times\frac{3}{1}\\\\a_3 = 9\\\\[/tex]
The third term is 9
Repeat for n = 4.
[tex]a_n = \frac{n}{a_{n-1}}\\\\a_4 = \frac{4}{a_{4-1}}\\\\a_4 = \frac{4}{a_{3}}\\\\a_4 = \frac{4}{9}\\\\[/tex]
The fourth term is 4/9
Repeat for n = 5
[tex]a_n = \frac{n}{a_{n-1}}\\\\a_5 = \frac{5}{a_{5-1}}\\\\a_5 = \frac{5}{a_{4}}\\\\a_5 = 5 \div a_{4}\\\\a_5 = 5 \div \frac{4}{9}\\\\a_5 = 5 \times \frac{9}{4}\\\\a_5 = \frac{5}{1} \times \frac{9}{4}\\\\a_5 = \frac{5*9}{1*4}\\\\a_5 = \frac{45}{4}\\\\[/tex]
Answer: The first five terms are 6, 1/3, 9, 4/9, 45/4==============================================================
Problem 4c
I'm not much help here for this problem. Not only are the instructions missing, but it's not clear how this sequence is set up. If I had to guess, it's somehow recursively defined. How exactly, I'm not sure. I would ask your teacher for any clarification.

Joe used a project management software package and has determined the following results for a given project.: Expected completion time of the project = 22 days Variance of project completion time = 2.77 What is the probability of completing the project over 20 days?
Answer:
0.1151 = 11.51% probability of completing the project over 20 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Expected completion time of the project = 22 days.
Variance of project completion time = 2.77
This means that [tex]\mu = 22, \sigma = \sqrt{2.77}[/tex]
What is the probability of completing the project over 20 days?
This is the p-value of Z when X = 20, so:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{20 - 22}{\sqrt{2.77}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.2[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.2[/tex] has a p-value of 0.1151.
0.1151 = 11.51% probability of completing the project over 20 days.

If f(x) = x2 -1, what is the equation for f–1(x)?
We have a function,
[tex]f(x)=x^2-1[/tex]
and we are asked to find its inverse function.
An inverse function essentially gets you the original value that was dropped into a function.
For example,
If I put 5 into [tex]f(x)[/tex] I will get 24. Now If I take 24 and put it into the inverse function I have to get number 5 back.
The way to determine the inverse function swap the x and the [tex]f(x)[/tex], then solve for [tex]f(x)[/tex],
[tex]x=f(x)^2-1[/tex]
[tex]f(x)^2=x+1[/tex]
[tex]f(x)=\pm\sqrt{x+1}[/tex]
Of course the notation demands that the obtained function be called,
[tex]f^{-1}(x)=\pm\sqrt{x+1}[/tex]

Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
The numerical coefficient is sqrt(8/3), so all you have eliminated is D.
Now you have to consider the literal all by itself.
sqrt(x^2)/sqrt(x) can be written as (sqrt(x^2/x)) = sqrt(x)
x^2 when divided by x leaves x
another way of looking at it is sqrt(x)*sqrt(x) / sqrt(x) = sqrt(x)
So the answer is sqrt(8/3 * x)

Using a profit P1 of $5,000, a profit P2 of $4,500, and a profit P3 of $4,000, calculate a 95% confidence interval for the mean profit per customer that SoftBus can expect to obtain. (Round your answers to one decimal place.) Lower Limit Upper Limit
Answer:
Confidence Interval
Lower Limit = $4,233.3
Upper Limit = $4,766.7
With 95% confidence, the mean profit per customer that SoftBus can expect to obtain is between $4,233.30 and $4,766.7 based on the given sample data.
Step-by-step explanation:
The z-score of 95% = 1.96
Profit Mean Square Root
Difference of MD
P1 $5,000 $500 $250,000
P2 4,500 0 0
P3 4,000 -500 $250,000
Total $13,500 $500,000
Mean $4,500 ($13,500/3) $166,667 ($500,000/3)
Standard Deviation = Square root of $166,667 = 408.2
Margin of error = (z-score * standard deviation)/n
= (1.96 * 408.2)/3
= 266.7
= $266.7
Confidence Interval = Sample mean +/- Margin of error
= $4,500 +/- 266.7
Lower Limit = $4,233.3 ($4,500 - $266.7)
Upper Limit = $4,766.7 ($4,500 + $266.7)
Damaged items are marked down 25% to 40%. A newspaper coupon holder; to an additional 10% markdown of the new price due to the damage. What is the lowest price of a damaged item that was originally marked GHC100?
A GHC 35.60
B GH 5000
C. GHC 18.00
D. GHC 40.80
E GHC 23.40
Markdown is the difference (at sale) between the price an item is placed at for retail sale, and the actual price the item is sold
The correct option is; B. GHC 50.00
The reason for choosing option B is as follows;
The known parameters
The percentage by which damaged items are marked down = 25% to 40%
The percentage markdown offered by the newspaper coupon = 10%
The original marked price of the item = GHC 100
Strategy:
Apply the damaged items and coupon markdown percentages to the original marked price of GHC100 sum the results to find the total markdown
Solution:
Markdown due to damage:
Given that the item is damaged, to have the lowest price, we apply the largest markdown of 40%;
40% is removed from the price to which the item marked down due to damage, as follows;
The markdown due to damage = 40/100 × GHC 100 = GHC 40
Markdown due to Coupon Holder:
The markdown the coupon holder is to get = 10% off the retail price
Given that the damage is not mentioned in the newspaper, we have;
∴ The markdown the coupon holder is to get = 10/100 × GHC 100 = GHC 10
Total markdown:
The total markdown is therefore equal to GHC 40 + GHC 10 = GHC 50
The Lowest Price of A Damaged Items marked GHC100:
The lowest price of the item = Original price - Maximum markdown
The lowest price of the item = GHC 100 - GHC 50 = GHC 50

[tex]P(Red = 2) = \frac{5}{588}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Total = 49[/tex]
[tex]Red = 5[/tex]
Solving (a): Are the events dependent?
Yes, they are.
When the first red candy is selected and eaten, the total number of candies reduced to 48 and the number of red candies also reduced to 4.
So, the probability of selecting a 2nd candy is dependent on the first candy selected.
Solving (b): P(Red = 2)
This is calculated as:
[tex]P(Red = 2) = P(Red) * P(Red | Red)[/tex]
The first selection has the following probability:
[tex]P(Red) = \frac{Red}{Total}[/tex]
[tex]P(Red) = \frac{5}{49}[/tex]
The second selection has the following probability:
[tex]P(Red|Red) = \frac{Red - 1}{Total - 1}[/tex]
[tex]P(Red|Red) = \frac{5 - 1}{49 - 1}[/tex]
[tex]P(Red|Red) = \frac{4}{48}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]P(Red = 2) = P(Red) * P(Red | Red)[/tex]
[tex]P(Red = 2) = \frac{5}{49} * \frac{4}{48}[/tex]
Reduce fraction
[tex]P(Red = 2) = \frac{5}{49} * \frac{1}{12}[/tex]
Multiply
[tex]P(Red = 2) = \frac{5}{588}[/tex]

Determine the minimum weight of the heaviest 5% of all items produced. d. If 27,875 items of the entire production weigh at least 5.01 ounces, how many items have been produced?
Answer:
The right solution is:
(a) 0.8849
(b) 12.28%
(c) 4.9935
(d) 28004
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Mean,
= 4.5
Standard deviation,
= 0.3
(a)
P(x > 4.14)
As we know,
⇒ [tex]z = \frac{4.14-4.5}{0.3}[/tex]
[tex]=-1.20[/tex]
then,
⇒ [tex]P(z>-1.20) = P(z<1.20)[/tex]
[tex]=0.8849[/tex]
(b)
P(4.8 < x < 5.04)
= [tex]P(\frac{4.8-4.5}{0.3} < \frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{5.04-4.5}{0.3} )[/tex]
= [tex]P(1<z<1.80)[/tex]
= [tex]P(z<1.80)-P(z<1)[/tex]
= [tex]0.9641 -0.8413[/tex]
= [tex]0.1228[/tex]
or,
= [tex]12.28[/tex] (%)
(c)
P(x > x) = 0.05
z value will be,
= 1.645
⇒ [tex]1.645 = \frac{x - 4.5}{0.3}[/tex]
[tex]x = 4.9935[/tex]
(d)
P(x < 5.01)
⇒ [tex]z = \frac{x- \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{5.01-4.5}{0.3}[/tex]
[tex]=1.7[/tex]
P(z < 1.70) = 0.9554
⇒ [tex]n = \frac{27875}{0.9954}[/tex]
[tex]=28004[/tex]

A toy rocket is shot vertically into the air from a launching pad 9 feet above the ground with an initial velocity of 88 feet per second. The height h, in feet, of the rocket above the ground at t seconds after launch is given by the function
h(t) - 16^2 + 88ft +9. How long will it take the rocket to reach its maximum height? What is the maximum height?
The rocket reaches its maximum height at ____ second(s) after launch.
(Simplify your answer.)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The position function for this is:
[tex]s(t)=-16t^2+88t+9[/tex]. We can use this equation to find the position (or height) of the rocket at ANY TIME during its flight. I could find out the height of the rocket at 3 seconds by plugging in a 3 for t and solving for s(t); I could find the height of the rocket at 12 seconds by plugging in a 12 for t and solving for s(t), etc.
The first derivative of position is velocity:
v(t) = -32t + 88.
If we are looking for the time the rocket reaches it max height, we need to remember from physics class that this happens when the velocity of the object is at 0. We set the velocity equation equal to 0 then and solve for t:
0 = -32t + 88 and
-88 = -32t so
t = 2.75 seconds. This means that 2.75 seconds after the rocket is launched, it reaches its max height. In order to find what that max height is we plug 2.75 into the position equation for t and solve:
[tex]s(2.75)=-16(2.75)^2+88(2.75)+9[/tex] to get that
s(2.75) = 130
The max height is 130 feet and it reaches this point at 2.75 seconds into its motion.

a) Everyone on the team talks until the entire team agrees on one decision. O b) Everyone on the team discusses options and then votes. O c) The team passes the decision-making responsibility to an outside person. O di The team leader makes a decision without input from the other members.
Answer:
a) Everyone on the team talks until the entire team agrees on one decision.
Step-by-step explanation:
Option B consists of voting and not everyone would like the outcome. Option C is making an outsider the decision maker, which can't be helpful since he / she won't have as strong opinions as the team itself. Option D is just plain wrong as it defeats the purpose of team work and deciding as one team. So, I believe option A makes the most sense
