Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
r is the common ratio.
Third term minus first term is 48.
a₃ - a₁ = 48
a₃ = a₁r²
a₁r² - a₁ = 48
a₁(r²-1) = 48
r²-1 = 48/a₁
Fourth term minus second term is 144.
a₄ - a₂ = 144
a₂ = a₁r
a₄ = a₁r³
a₁r³ - a₁r = 144
a₁r(r²-1) = 144
r²-1 = 144/(a₁r)
48/a₁ = 144/(a₁r)
r = 3
:::::
r²-1 = 48/a₁
a₁ = 6
:::::
a₆ = a₁r⁵ = 1458
(i) The common ratio for the given condition is 3.
ii) The first term of the sequence is 6.
iii) The 6th term of the sequence is 1458.
What is a sequence?It is defined as the systematic way of representing the data that follows a certain rule of arithmetic.
Divergent sequences are those in which the terms never stabilize; instead, they constantly increase or decrease as n approaches infinity,
It is given that a is a geometric progression such that the 3rd term minus a first term is 48. The 4th term minus the 2nd term 144.
Each number following the first in a geometric sequence is multiplied by a particular number, known as the common ratio.
As the third term minus the first term is 48.
a₃ - a₁ = 48
a₃ = a₁r²
a₁r² - a₁ = 48
a₁(r²-1) = 48
r²-1 = 48/a₁
The fourth term minus the second term is 144.
a₄ - a₂ = 144
a₂ = a₁r
a₄ = a₁r³
a₁r³ - a₁r = 144
a₁r(r²-1) = 144
r²-1 = 144/(a₁r)
48/a₁ = 144/(a₁r)
r = 3
r²-1 = 48/a₁
a₁ = 6
a₆ = a₁r⁵ = 1458
Thus the common ratio for the given condition is 3, the first term of the sequence is 6 and the 6th term of the sequence is 1458.

The product of a negative integer and a positive integer is?
PLEASE ANSWER A, B, C
Answer:
a. negative
b. negative
c. positive
Step-by-step explanation:
a. When a negative and positive integer are being multiplied the product will always be negative. For example, -3*2=-6.
b. Before answering this question it is helpful to realize that it is the exact same as part a. This is because the commutative property states that order does not matter in multiplication. So the answer is also negative, 2*-3=-6.
c. If two negative integers are multiplied then the product will be positive. Whenever two integers of the same sign are multiplied the product is positive. The opposite is true when they have different signs; the product will always be negative. An example of two negative integers would be -3*-2=6.

What is the value of 3?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
3 ⇒ 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Apparently "a = b" in this case is used to mean f(a) = b. It appears as though the function is ...
f(x) = x(x+1)
Then f(3) = 3(3+1) = 3·4 = 12

Additional comment
IMO this is a poor use of the equal sign, which should be reserved for situations where the left side expression has the same value as the right side expression.
The price of a car was decreased from $13,000 to $11,830. The price is decreased by what percentage?
Answer:
It is decreased by 9%
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find out how much money is decreased. To do this, subtract 13,000-11,830=1170. Finally, figure out how much percent 1170 is of the original price of $13,000.
The answer is 7%.

So that's why the answer is choice C
The requirement that x is nonzero isn't technically necessary. The original expression simplifies to choice C even when x = 0 is the case. Also, we don't have issues such as division by zero errors that could arise. It's a bit curious why your teacher put in that condition.
Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
7x²×sqrt(2x⁴)×6×sqrt(2x¹²)
we see right away that as constant multiplication factor we have 7×6 = 42.
and then we get from each sqrt expression a sqrt(2), which leads to sqrt²(2) = 2 and therefore 42×2=84.
the only answer option with 84 is C.
now, to be completely sure, and to get some practice, let's look at the other parts :
sqrt(2x⁴) = sqrt(2)×sqrt(x⁴) = sqrt(2)×x²
sqrt(2x¹²) = sqrt(2)×sqrt(x¹²) = sqrt(2)×x⁶
=>
7x²×sqrt(2)×x²×6×sqrt(2)×x⁶ =7×6×2×x²×x²×x⁶ = 84x¹⁰
perfect. C is confirmed.

Answer:
[tex]\text{Part A.}\\(-\frac{1}{8},0),\\(\frac{3}{2},0)\\\\\text{Part B.}\\(\frac{11}{16},\frac{169}{16})\\\\\text{Part C.}[/tex]
Draw a parabola concave down with vertex at [tex](\frac{11}{16},\frac{169}{16})[/tex]. Since the leading coefficient of the equation is -16, the parabola should appear thinner than its parent function [tex]y=x^2[/tex]. Ensure that the parabola passes through the points [tex](\(-\frac{1}{8},0)[/tex] and [tex](\frac{3}{2},0)[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A:
The x-intercepts of a function occur at [tex]y=0[/tex]. Therefore, let [tex]y=0[/tex] and solve for all values of [tex]x[/tex]:
[tex]0=-16x^2+22x+3[/tex]
The quadratic formula states that the real and nonreal solutions to a quadratic in standard form [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex] is equal to [tex]x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex].
In [tex]-16x^2+22x+3[/tex], assign:
[tex]a\implies -16[/tex] [tex]b\implies 22[/tex] [tex]c\implies 3[/tex]Therefore, the solutions to this quadratic are:
[tex]x=\frac{-22\pm\sqrt{22^2-4(-16)(3)}}{2(-16)},\\x=\frac{-22\pm 26}{-32},\\\begin{cases}x=\frac{-22+26}{-32}=\frac{4}{-32}=\boxed{-\frac{1}{8}},\\x=\frac{-22-26}{-32}=\frac{-48}{-32}=\boxed{\frac{3}{2}}\end{cases}[/tex]
The x-intercepts are then [tex]\boxed{(-\frac{1}{8},0)}[/tex] and [tex]\boxed{(\frac{3}{2},0)}[/tex].
Part B:
The a-term is negative and therefore the parabola is concave down. Thus, the vertex will be the maximum of the graph. The x-coordinate of the vertex of a quadratic in standard form [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex] is equal to [tex]x=\frac{-b}{2a}[/tex]. Using the same variables we assigned earlier, we get:
[tex]x=\frac{-22}{2(-16)}=\frac{-22}{-32}=\frac{11}{16}[/tex]
Substitute this into the equation of the parabola to get the y-value:
[tex]f(11/16)=-16(11/16)^2+22(11/16)+3,\\f(11/16)=\frac{169}{16}[/tex]
Therefore, the vertex of the parabola is located at [tex]\boxed{(\frac{11}{16},\frac{169}{16})}[/tex]

X^2 + bx + 49 is a perfect squad trinomial what is one possible value of b? & I need help with the others also due soon!
20. (2) 14
A perfect square trinomial will factor into two expressions that are the same, for example: x^2 + 6x + 9 = (x + 3)(x + 3). Since this problem has a C value of 49, it will factor into (x + 7)(x + 7). 7 doubled is 14, therefore one possible value of B is 7.
21. (4) 2, -12
x^2 + 10x + 25 = 24 + 25
(x + 5)^2 = 49
x + 5 = +/- 7
x = 2, -12
22. (3) 3 + sqrt(17)
x^2 - 6x = 8
Complete the Square
x^2 - 6x + 9 = 8 + 9
(x - 3)^2 = 17
x - 3 = +/- sqrt(17)
x = 3 + sqrt(17), 3 - sqrt(17)
23. (1) 1, -5
x^2 + 4x - 5 = 0
x^2 + 4x = 5
x^2 + 4x + 4 = 5 + 4
(x + 2)^2 = 9
x + 2 = +/- 3
x = 1, -5

The figures to the right are similar. Compare the first figure to the second. Give the ratio of the perimeters and the ratio of the areas
(integer or a simplified fraction)
Thank you!
9514 1404 393
Answer:
perimeter: 3 : 4area: 9 : 16Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter ratio smaller : larger is the same as the side length ratio.
18 : 24 = 3 : 4 . . . smaller : larger perimeter ratio
The area ratio is the square of this.
3^2 : 4^2 = 9 : 16 . . . smaller : larger area ratio
The length of the base of a triangle is twice it’s height. If the area of the triangle is 441 square kilometers, find the height
Answer:
21 kilometers
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the height be [tex]x[/tex]. Then, the length of the base is [tex]2x[/tex]. The formula for the area is of the triangle is given by base*height/2. Therefore, the area of the triangle is equal to [tex]\frac{x \cdot 2x}{2} = x^2[/tex], which is in turn equal to 441. Since [tex]x[/tex] must be positive, then [tex]21^2=441[/tex], meaning that the height is [tex]21[/tex] kilometers.

dC= ___________
ΔC= __________
Answer:
dC=3.5
DC is between 3.475 and 3.525
Step-by-step explanation:
So let dx=1 since the change there is a change in 1 unit.
Find dC/dx by differentiating the expression named C.
dC/dx=0.05x+3
So dC=(0.05x+3) dx
Plug in x=10 and dx=1:
dC=(0.05×10+3)(1)
dC=(0.5+3)
dC=3.5
Let D be the change in cost-the triangle thing.
Since dx=1 we only want the change in unit to be within 1 in difference.
So this means we want it to be from x=9 to x=1] ot from x=10 to x=11.
Let's do from x=9 to x=10 first:
DC=C(10)-C(9)
DC=[0.025×10^2+3×10+4]-[0.025×9^2+3×9+4]
DC=[2.5+30+4]-[0.025×81+27+4]
DC=[36.5]-[2.025+31]
DC=[36.5]-[33.025]
DC=3.475
Now let's do from x=10 to x=11
DC=[0.025×11^2+3×11+4]-[0.025×10^2+3×10+4]
DC=[0.025×121+33+4]-[36.5]
DC=[3.025+37]-[36.5]
DC=[40.025]-[36.5]
DC=3.525
So DC, the change in cost where the change in unit is 1, is between 3.475 and 3.525.
Annual income: The mean annual income for people in a certain city (in thousands of dollars) is 41, with a standard deviation of 28. A pollster draws a sample of 92
people to interview.
Answer:
By the Central Limit Theorem, the distribution of the sample means is approximately normal with mean 41 and standard deviation 2.92, in thousands of dollars.
Step-by-step explanation:
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.
Mean of 41, standard deviation of 28:
This means that [tex]\mu = 41, \sigma = 28[/tex]
Sample of 92:
This means that [tex]n = 92, s = \frac{28}{\sqrt{92}} = 2.92[/tex]
Distribution of the sample means:
By the Central Limit Theorem, the distribution of the sample means is approximately normal with mean 41 and standard deviation 2.92, in thousands of dollars.
If an orange seller bought 5 dozen oranges at the rate of tk.60 per four and sold them at the rate of tk50 per four,how much did he lose
Answer:
tk 30
Step-by-step explanation:
5 dozen = 5 * 12 = 60 oranges
12/4 = 3
total cost = 60 * 3 = tk.180
total sell = 50 * 3 = tk 150
total lose = 180 - 150 = tk 30

here's the answer to your question
A sign on the gas pumps of a chain of gasoline stations encourages customers to have their oil checked with the claim that one out of four cars needs to have oil added. If this is true, what is the probability of the following events?
a. One out of the next four cars needs oil.
b. Two out of the next eight cars needs oil.
c.Three out of the next 12 cars need oil.
Answer:
a) 0.4219 = 42.19% probability that one out of the next four cars needs oil.
b) 0.3115 = 31.15% probability that two out of the next eight cars needs oil.
c) 0.2581 = 25.81% probability that three out of the next 12 cars need oil.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each car, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they need oil, or they do not need it. The probability of a car needing oil is independent of any other car, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
One out of four cars needs to have oil added.
This means that [tex]p = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]
a. One out of the next four cars needs oil.
This is P(X = 1) when n = 4. So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{4,1}.(0.25)^{1}.(0.75)^{3} = 0.4219[/tex]
0.4219 = 42.19% probability that one out of the next four cars needs oil.
b. Two out of the next eight cars needs oil.
This is P(X = 2) when n = 8. So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{8,2}.(0.25)^{2}.(0.75)^{6} = 0.3115[/tex]
0.3115 = 31.15% probability that two out of the next eight cars needs oil.
c.Three out of the next 12 cars need oil.
This is P(X = 3) when n = 12. So
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{12,3}.(0.25)^{3}.(0.75)^{9} = 0.2581[/tex]
0.2581 = 25.81% probability that three out of the next 12 cars need oil.
