Three numbers form an arithmetic sequence whose
common difference is 3. If the first number is
increased by 1, the second increased by 6, and
the third increased by 19, the resulting three
numbers form a geometric sequence. Determine
the original three numbers.

Answers

Answer 1

Let x be the first number in the sequence. Then the first three numbers are

{x, x + 3, x + 6}

The next sentence says that the sequence

{x + 1, x + 9, x + 25}

is geometric, which means there is some fixed number r for which

x + 9 = r (x + 1)

x + 25 = r (x + 9)

Solve for r :

r = (x + 9)/(x + 1) = (x + 25)/(x + 9)

Solve for x :

(x + 9)² = (x + 25) (x + 1)

x ² + 18x + 81 = x ² + 26x + 25

8x = 56

x = 7

Then the three numbers are

{7, 10, 13}

What is the median to 17,19, 20, 21, 22, 25, 29, 30, 32, 35

Answers

Answer:

23.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the middle value when the numbers are put in order from smallest to largest

17,19, 20, 21, 22, 25, 29, 30, 32, 35

There are 10 numbers

17,19, 20, 21, 22,      25, 29, 30, 32, 35

The middle is between 22 and 25

An automobile manufacturer has given its car a 46.7 miles/gallon (MPG) rating. An independent testing firm has been contracted to test the actual MPG for this car since it is believed that the car has an incorrect manufacturer's MPG rating. After testing 150 cars, they found a mean MPG of 46.5. Assume the population standard deviation is known to be 1.1. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used. State the null and alternative hypotheses.

Answers

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis H0: The null hypothesis states that there is no relationship between the two things that are being considered.

The alternative hypothesis is contradictory to H0 and it explains that there is a relationship between the two selected variables.

Based on the question, the null hypothesis H0 is that the rating of car is equal to 46.7 miles per gallon. μ = 46.7 MPG

The alternative hypothesis Ha is that the rating of the car is not equal to 46.7 Miles per gallon. μ ≠ 46.7 MPG

A sample tested the claim that heights of men and heights of women have difference​ variances, with s=7.42388 cm for women and 7.14974 cm for men. The sample sizes are n1=144 and n2=156. When using the F test with these​ data, is it correct to reason that there is no need to check for normality because n1>30 and n2>​30?

Answers

No. The F test has a requirement that samples be from the normally distributed populations, regardless of how large the samples are.

The F-test simply shows whether the variances that are in the numerator and the denominator are equal. The F-test can be applied on a large sampled population.

One main assumption of the F test is that the populations where the two samples are drawn are normally distributed.

Regarding the question, it's important to note that when using the F test with these​ data, it's not correct to reason that there is no need to check for "normality".

It should be noted that the F test has a requirement that samples are from the normally distributed populations, regardless of how large such samples are.

If the sequence 2, 4, 6, 10, 16, ... were to follow the same pattern as the Fibonacci sequence, what are the next three terms?

Answers

Answer:

26, 42, 68

Step-by-step explanation:

In the Fibonacci sequence, each number is equal to the sum of the two previous numbers. Denoting the sequence as a, we can say that

a₁=2

a₂=4

a₃=6

a₄=10

a₅=16

What we can see here is that each number a₃ or above is equal to the sum of its two previous numbers. For example, a₃ = a₁+a₂ = 2 +4 = 6

Therefore,

a₆ = a₄+a₅ = 10+16 = 26

a₇ = a₅+a₆ = 16 + 26 = 42

a₈ = a₆+a₇ = 26 + 42 = 68

(b) In a formula, z varies inversely as P. If Z is 200 when P is 4, find z when P is 10.

Answers

Answer:

(a) 18

(b) 80

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) let y=kx

so, 24=16k

or, k=24/16 or, k=3/2

now, putting x=12

y=kx

or, y=(3/2)×12

or, y=3×12/2

or, y=36/2

or, y=18

(b) let P=k/z

so, 4=k/200

or, k=800

when P = 10

P=k/z

or, 10=800/z

or, z=800/10

or, z=80

A ball is thrown straight up into the air from an initial height of 5 feet at time t = 0. The height, in feet, of the ball above the ground is given by h(t), where t is measured in seconds for 0 ≤ t ≤ 15. Based on the values of t and h(t) given in the table, for which value of t would the speed of the ball most likely be the greatest?

t (seconds) 0 3 6 9 12 15
h(t) (feet) 5 12 15 11 6 0

Select one:
a. 2 seconds
b. 5 seconds
c. 9 seconds
d. 15 seconds

Answers

Answer:

5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of an object is the rate of distance over time. The value of time (t) at the greatest speed of the ball is at 2 seconds

First, we calculate the speed using:

[tex]Speed = \frac{h(t)}{t}[/tex] --- i.e. distance/time

At t = 0, h(t) = 5

So;

[tex]Speed = \frac{5}{0} = unde fine d[/tex]

At t = 3, h(t) = 12

[tex]Speed = \frac{12}{3} = 4[/tex]

At t = 6, h(t) = 15

[tex]Speed = \frac{15}{6} = 2.5[/tex]

At t = 9, h(t) = 11

[tex]Speed = \frac{11}{9} = 1.2[/tex]

At t = 12, h(t) = 6

[tex]Speed = \frac{6}{12} = 0.5[/tex]

At t = 15, h(t) = 0

[tex]Speed = \frac{0}{15} = 0[/tex]

By comparing the above values, we notice that as time and height increases, the value of speed reduces.

This means that the greatest value of speed will be at the least value of time (t).

From the given options, the least value of time is at:

[tex]t = 2[/tex]

Hence, the value of time (t) at the greatest speed of the ball is at 2 seconds
