Answer: 16384

Step-by-step explanation:

The 15th term of the geometric sequence 4,-8, 16, -32, 64... is 131072. The term is obtained by using the formula for the nth term of a geometric sequence.

The sequence given is a geometric sequence. This means every term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by a constant. In this case, the constant is -2 (since -8 = 4*-2, 16 = -8*-2, -32 = 16*-2, etc).

The formula for the nth term of a geometric sequence is a*r^(n-1), where a is the first term, r is the ratio (constant), and n is the position of the term in the sequence. In this case, the first term a is 4 and the ratio r is -2. Substituting these values and n=15 into the formula, we get the 15th term as 4*(-2)^(15-1) = 131072.

Therefore, the 15th term of the sequence 4,-8, 16, -32, 64... is 131072. This can be found by applying the formula for the nth term of a geometric sequence and substituting the given values.

Answer:

The probability that [tex] \\ P(x<85)[/tex] is, approximately, 0.3594 or about 35.94% (or simply 36%).

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we have to know that the random variable, in this case, is normally distributed. A normal distribution is completely determined by its two parameters,  namely, the population mean and the population standard deviation. For the case in question, we have a mean of [tex] \\ \mu = 89[/tex], and a standard deviation of [tex] \\ \sigma = 11[/tex].

To find the probability in question, we can use the standard normal distribution, a special case of a normal distribution with mean equals 0 and a standard deviation that equals 1.

All we have to do is "transform" the value of the raw score (x in this case) into its equivalent z-score. In other words, we first standardize the value x, and then we can find the corresponding probability.

With this value, we can consult the cumulative standard normal table, available in most Statistics textbooks or on the Internet. We can also make use of technology and find this probability using statistical packages, spreadsheets, and even calculators.

The corresponding z-score for a raw score is given by the formula:

[tex] \\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex] [1]

And it tells us the distance of the raw score from the mean in standard deviations units. A positive value of the z-score indicates that the raw value is above the mean. Conversely, a negative value tells us that the raw score is below the mean.

With all this information, we are prepared to answer the question.

The corresponding z-score

According to formula [1], the z-score, or standardized value, is as follows:

[tex] \\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

From the question, we already know that

x = 85

[tex] \\ \mu = 89[/tex]

[tex] \\ \sigma = 11[/tex]

Thus

[tex] \\ z = \frac{85 - 89}{11}[/tex]

[tex] \\ z = \frac{-4}{11}[/tex]

[tex] \\ z = -0.3636 \approx -0.36[/tex]

Consult the probability using the cumulative standard normal table

With this value for z = -0.36, we can consult the cumulative standard normal table. The entry for use it is this z-score with two decimals. This z-score tells us that the raw value of 85 is 0.36 standard deviations below from the population mean.

For z = -0.36, we can see, in the table, an initial entry of -0.3 at the first column of it. We then need to find, in the first line (or row) of the table, the corresponding 0.06 decimal value remaining. With this two values, we can determine that the cumulative probability is, approximately:

[tex] \\ P(x<85) = P(z<-0.36) = 0.3594[/tex]

Then, [tex] \\ P(x<85) = 0.3594[/tex] or, in words, the probability that [tex] \\ P(x<85)[/tex] is, approximately, 0.3594 or about 35.94% (or simply 36%).

Remember that this probability is approximated since we have to round the value of z to two decimal places (z = -0.36), and not (z = -0.3636), because of the restrictions to two decimals places for z of the standard normal table. A more precise result is [tex] \\ P(x<85) = 0.3581[/tex] using technology, shown in the graph below.

Notice that, in the case that the cumulative standard normal table does not present negative values for z, we can use the next property of the normal distributions, mainly because of the symmetry of this family of distributions.

[tex] \\ P(z<-a) = 1 - P(z<a) = P(z>a)[/tex]

For the case presented here, we have

[tex] \\ P(z<-0.36) = 1 - P(z<0.36) = P(z>0.36)[/tex]

[tex] \\ P(z<-0.36) = 1 - 0.6406 = P(z>0.36)[/tex]

[tex] \\ P(z<-0.36) = 0.3594 = P(z>0.36)[/tex]

Which is the same probability obtained in the previous step.

The graph below shows the shaded area for the probability of  [tex] \\ P(x<85)[/tex] finally obtained.  

Final answer:

To find P(x<85), calculate the z-score and use the standard normal distribution to find the cumulative probability. Susan's z-score for her final exam is 2, meaning her performance was significantly above the average. The central limit theorem helps to analyze the mean of large sample sizes, while binomial distributions apply to scenarios such as analyzing a basketball player's field goal completion rate.

Explanation:

Finding Probability in a Normal Distribution

To find the probability P(x<85) when the number of points scored by each team in the NHL at the end of the season is normally distributed with a mean (μ) of 89 and a standard deviation (σ) of 11, we use the standard normal distribution. First, we calculate the z-score for x=85, which is the value for which we want to find the cumulative probability. The z-score is calculated using the formula z = (x - μ) / σ. Substituting the given values, we get z = (85 - 89) / 11 = -0.3636. Then we look up this z-score in the standard normal distribution table or use a calculator or software to find the cumulative probability associated with this z-score.

To express the number 13.7 in terms of the mean and standard deviation of the given data, you would use the formula for the z-score again.

If Susan's biology class has a mean final exam score of 85 and a standard deviation of 5, and Susan scored a 95 on her final exam, her z-score would be z = (95 - 85) / 5 = 2. This means Susan's score is 2 standard deviations above the mean, indicating she performed significantly better than the average student.

When dealing with sample sizes larger than one, the central limit theorem tells us that the sampling distribution of the sample mean will tend to be normal regardless of the shape of the population distribution, especially as the sample size increases (typically n > 30 is considered large enough). This is reflected in the examples involving the estimation of mean final exam scores and calculating probabilities with a sample size of 55.

The probability distribution question for the basketball player's shots would involve the binomial distribution, where the probability of success is given by the player's field goal completion rate. The mean and standard deviation for this binomial distribution can be calculated using the formulas for a binomial distribution.

Final answer:

To rearrange the equation so x is the independent variable, add 4y to both sides and then divide by -5 to solve for x.

Explanation:

To rearrange the equation so x is the independent variable, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation. Let's start by adding 4y to both sides of the equation:

-5x - 4y + 4y = -8 + 4y

-5x = 4y - 8

Next, divide both sides of the equation by -5 to solve for x:

x = (4y - 8) / -5

So, the rearranged equation with x as the independent variable is:

x = (-4y + 8) / 5

Therefore, as per the explaination above,  the answer to the required question is x = (-4y + 8) / 5

The number being referred to in the question is 9. It is less than 10, not a multiple of 2, and is a composite number, as it has factors other than 1 and itself.

The question is asking for a number which is less than 10 and is not a multiple of 2, but is a composite number. In mathematics, a composite number is a positive integer that has at least one positive integer divisor other than one or itself. If we look at the numbers less than 10 which are not multiples of 2, we are left with the numbers 1, 3, 5, 7, and 9. Out of these, the only composite number is 9, because it could be divided evenly by 3 and 1 apart from itself. Therefore, the number you are referring to is 9.

The height of the cone (h) is approximately 12.8 centimeters to the nearest tenth of a centimeter.

To find the height of the cone (h) to the nearest tenth of a centimeter, we can follow these steps:

Calculate the radius (r) of the base:

The formula for the circumference of a circle is C = 2πr.

We are given the base circumference C = 44 cm.

Solving for r, we get: r = C / (2π) ≈ 7.07 cm (round to two decimal places).

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the height (h):

The Pythagorean theorem states that a² + b² = c², where a and b are the legs of a right triangle and c is the hypotenuse.

In this case, the slant height (16.2 cm) is the hypotenuse, and the radius (7.07 cm) and the height (h) are the legs.

Therefore, we can write the equation: 16.2² = 7.07² + h².

Solve for the height (h):

Rearranging the equation to isolate h, we get: h² = 16.2² - 7.07² ≈ 163.97 cm².

Taking the square root of both sides, we get: h ≈ 12.8 cm.

Round the height to the nearest tenth of a centimeter:

Rounding 12.8 cm to the nearest tenth gives us: h ≈ 12.8 cm (to the nearest tenth).

Therefore, the height of the cone (h) is approximately 12.8 centimeters to the nearest tenth of a centimeter.

Final answer:

The height of the cone is calculated using the base radius, found from the given base circumference, and applying the Pythagorean theorem with the slant height as the hypotenuse. The height comes out to be approximately 14.6 cm.

Explanation:

To calculate the height of the cone (h) given its slant height and base circumference, we first need to find the base radius (r) using the formula for the circumference of a circle: C = 2πr. Given that the base circumference is 44 cm, solving for r we get:

r = C / (2π)
 = 44 cm / (2 * 3.1416)
 ≈ 7 cm

Next, we use the Pythagorean theorem in the right-angled triangle formed by the radius, slant height, and the height of the cone. The slant height is the hypotenuse of the triangle, 16.2 cm in this case, and the opposite side to the angle at the cone's base is the height we need to find.

Using the formula h = √(slant height)^2 - (radius)^2, we substitute the values into the equation:

h = √(16.2 cm)^2 - (7 cm)^2
 = √262.44 cm^2 - 49 cm^2
 = √213.44 cm^2
 ≈ 14.6 cm

Therefore, the height of the cone, rounded to the nearest tenth, is 14.6 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept of the graph is at (0, 8)

Plugging in x = 0 we get  y = -4/3 * 0 + 8 = 8.

So we can mark 2 points on the graph paper.

One is at (0, 8).

If we let x = 3 then y = -4/3 * 3 + 8

y = -4 + 8

y = 4.

So our second point is at (3, 4)

We draw a line through these 2 points to get our graph.

Answer:

2s = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

In the choir, there are 16 altos and s sopranos.

Let the number of altos be a.

=> a = 16

There are twice as many sopranos as altos.This means that:

a = 2s

Since the number of altos, a, is 16, the equation that represents this situation is:

2s = 16

An equation representing the number of sopranos in a choir, given the number of altos is s = 2 x 16, which simplifies to s = 32.

The question asks us to write an equation to represent the number of sopranos in a choir based on the number of altos. Given that there are 16 altos and the number of sopranos is twice as many, we can represent the number of sopranos as s. The relationship between the altos and sopranos can be expressed mathematically as s = 2 × 16. Therefore, the equation that represents this situation is s = 32, where s stands for the number of sopranos in the choir.

We can use the geometric mean theorem:

The altitude on the hypotenuse is the geometric mean of the two segments it creates.

In your triangle, the altitude is the radius CM and the segments are AC and BC.

[tex]CM = \sqrt{AC \times BC} = \sqrt{ 9 \times 4} = \sqrt{36} = \mathbf{6}\\\text{The radius of the circle M is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{6}}$}[/tex]

The length of the radius of the circle is 6 units

The given parameters are:

AC = 9

BC = 4

To calculate the radius (r), we make use of the following equation:

[tex]r = \sqrt{AC * BC}[/tex]

Substitute known values

[tex]r = \sqrt{9 * 4}[/tex]

Evaluate the product

[tex]r = \sqrt{36}[/tex]

Evaluate the square root

[tex]r = 6[/tex]

Hence, the length of the radius of the circle is 6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The median number of texts is 90, with approximately 25 students sending fewer than 78 texts (Q1) and 25 sending more than 102 texts (Q3) per day.

For a sample of 100 students, the median number of text messages sent per day is 90, the first quartile (Q1) is 78, and the third quartile (Q3) is 102. This implies that approximately 25 students in the sample send fewer than 78 text messages per day (since Q1 marks the 25th percentile) and approximately another 25 students send more than 102 text messages per day (since Q3 marks the 75th percentile). Hence, the interquartile range (IQR), which measures the middle 50% of the data, is the difference between the third and first quartiles, which is 102 - 78 = 24 messages.
