Khan Academy Problem PLEASE HELP

Answers

Answer:

a1 = 24

an = an-1 × 1/2, n >1

Step-by-step explanation:

a geometric sequence is a sequence where we multiply every previous term by a certain factor to create the next term.

so, we multiply 24 by something to get 12.

and then 12 by the same something to get 6.

and then 6 by the and something to get 3.

do you see the pattern ? hmmm ?

right, we always divide by 2 (or multiply by 1/2).

the starting value a1 = 24

so,

an = an-1 × 1/2, n>1

or

[tex]an = a1 \times {(1 \div 2)}^{n - 1} [/tex]

n>1

A researcher conducts a hypothesis test and concludes that his hypothesis is correct. Explain why this conclusion is never an appropriate decision in hypothesis testing.

Answers

Answer:

we use the terms, the hypothesis is incorrect or we lack sufficient evidence to declare the hypothesis incorrect. in hypothesis testing

Step-by-step explanation:

The conclusion made by the researcher after conducting a hypothesis test ( i.e. hypothesis is correct ) is not the right decision because in hypothesis testing we either reject the Null hypothesis or we fail to reject the Null hypothesis.  

These conclusions can be made when;

P-value < ∝  ( reject null hypothesis ) and P-value > ∝ ( fail to reject null hypothesis )

and We do not use the term  the hypothesis is correct But we use these terms, the hypothesis is incorrect or we lack sufficient evidence to declare the hypothesis incorrect.

To count the exact number of students protesting, the chief organizer lined the students up in columns of different length.

if ABCD is a parallelogram,find m>D and angle C=(9×-1) and angle A=(13×-25)

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  ∠C = ∠A = 53°

  ∠D = 127°

Step-by-step explanation:

Opposite angles of a parallelogram are congruent, so ...

  ∠A = ∠C

  13x -25 = 9x -1

  4x = 24

  x = 6

  ∠C = ∠A = 9(6) -1

  ∠C = ∠A = 53°

Adjacent angles of a parallelogram are supplementary.

  ∠D = 180 -∠C

  ∠D = 180 -(9(6) -1) = 180 -53

  ∠D = 127°

Answers

Answer:

Maximum = 19

Minimum = 4

Median = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum number of phone sold per day is the value to the right of the horizontal axis as the values are arranged in ascending order ; Hence, the maximum number of phones sold per day is 19

Also, the minimum number of phones sold per day is the value to the left of the plot, Hence, minimum number of phones sold per day is 14.

The Median value : 4, 9, 14, 19

The median = 1/2(n+1)th term

1/2(5)th term = 2.5 th term

Median (9 + 14) /2 = 13 /2 = 11.5 = 12 phones

Estimate the square root between two consecutive whole numbers of sqrt [55]

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  7.4 . . . . between 7 and 8

Step-by-step explanation:

55 is between the perfect squares 49 = 7² and 64 = 8². Using linear interpolation, the square root is approximately 7 +(55-49)/(64-49) = 7 6/15 = 7.4

√55 ≈ 7.4 . . . . approximate root by linear interpolation

_____

Additional comment

A way to improve the estimate of the root is to use the "Babylonian method" of iterating the root. Divide the original number (55) by the estimate of the root, and average that result with the estimate:

  next best guess = (55/7.4 +7.4)/2 = 7 77/185 ≈ 7.4162_162(repeating)

This matches the actual root when rounded to 4 decimal places. The number of accurate decimal places approximately doubles with each iteration.

__

Another way to improve the estimate is to modify the fractional portion. (The above method converges on a root more quickly.) For this, the iteration of the fractional part of the root is ...

  next fractional part = 6/(14 +(fractional part))

where 6/14 is the linear estimate fractional value with 1 subtracted from its denominator.

For one iteration, the new estimate of the fractional part is 6/(14 +6/15) = 5/12, so the root estimate is about 7.4167 compared to the above 7.4162.

A psychology professor assigns letter grades on a test according to the following scheme. A: Top 14% of scores B: Scores below the top 14% and above the bottom 65% C: Scores below the top 35% and above the bottom 16% D: Scores below the top 84% and above the bottom 9% F: Bottom 9% of scores Scores on the test are normally distributed with a mean of 68.4 and a standard deviation of 9.7. Find the numerical limits for a B grade. Round your answers to the nearest whole number, if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

The numerical limits for a B grade are 72 and 79, that is, a score between 72 and 79 results in a B grade.

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.

Scores on the test are normally distributed with a mean of 68.4 and a standard deviation of 9.7.

This means that [tex]\mu = 68.4, \sigma = 9.7[/tex]

Find the numerical limits for a B grade.

Below the 100 - 14 = 86th percentile and above the 65th percentile.

65th percentile:

X when Z has a p-value of 0.65, so X when Z = 0.385.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]0.385 = \frac{X - 68.4}{9.7}[/tex]

[tex]X - 68.4 = 0.385*9.7[/tex]

[tex]X = 72[/tex]

86th percentile:

X when Z has a p-value of 0.86, so X when Z = 1.08.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]1.08 = \frac{X - 68.4}{9.7}[/tex]

[tex]X - 68.4 = 1.08*9.7[/tex]

[tex]X = 79[/tex]

The numerical limits for a B grade are 72 and 79, that is, a score between 72 and 79 results in a B grade.
