The geometric sequence ; is defined by the formula: [tex]a_1 =10[/tex] ; [tex]a_i =a_{i-1} * \frac{9}{10}[/tex] Find the sum of the first 75 terms in the sequence .
Answer:
[tex]S_{75} = 99.963001151[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]a_1 =10[/tex]
[tex]a_i =a_{i-1} * \frac{9}{10}[/tex]
Required
Find the sum of 75 terms
Given that the sequence is geometric;
First, the common ratio has to be calculated;
The common ratio is defined as follows;
[tex]r = \frac{a_{i}}{a_{i-1}}[/tex]
Let [tex]i = 2[/tex]
[tex]r = \frac{a_{2}}{a_{2-1}}[/tex]
[tex]r = \frac{a_{2}}{a_{1}}[/tex]
So,
[tex]a_i =a_{i-1} * \frac{9}{10}[/tex] becomes
[tex]a_2 =a_{2-1} * \frac{9}{10}[/tex]
[tex]a_2 =a_{1} * \frac{9}{10}[/tex]
Divide through by [tex]a_1[/tex]
[tex]\frac{a_2}{a_1} =\frac{a_{1} * \frac{9}{10}}{a_1}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{a_2}{a_1} = \frac{9}{10}[/tex]
Recall that [tex]r = \frac{a_{2}}{a_{1}}[/tex]
So, [tex]r = \frac{9}{10}[/tex]
Given that r < 1;
The sum of n terms is calculated as thus;
[tex]S_n = \frac{a(1-r^n)}{1-r}[/tex]
To calculate the sum of the first 75 terms, we have the following parameters
[tex]n = 75\\a = a_1 = 10\\r = \frac{9}{10} = 0.9[/tex]
[tex]S_n = \frac{a(1-r^n)}{1-r}[/tex] becomes
[tex]S_{75} = \frac{10(1-0.9^{75})}{1-0.9}[/tex]
[tex]S_{75} = \frac{10(1-0.9^{75})}{0.1}[/tex]
[tex]S_{75} = 100(1-0.9^{75})[/tex]
[tex]S_{75} = 100(1-0.00036998848)[/tex]
[tex]S_{75} = 100(0.99963001151)[/tex]
[tex]S_{75} = 99.963001151[/tex]

Suppose Blue Cab Company charges $2.85 a ride up to 0.1 miles and $0.30 for each additional tenth of a mile. If the mean distance a passenger wants to go is 5.3 miles with a standard deviation of 1.4 miles, what is the standard deviation of the fare passengers pay
Answer:
$4.20
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculation for the standard deviation of the fare passengers pay of Blue Cab Company:
T = Total amount of the cab fare
Formula for Standard deviation of T will be:
T = σa+bX= bσX.
To convert the rate to dollars per mile from dollars per tenth of a mile, it will be:
b= 3
Hence,
Standard deviation of T is :
3.00(1.4) = $4.20.

In general, the probability that a blood donor has Type A blood is 0.40.Consider 8 randomly chosen blood donors, what is the probability that more than half of them have Type A blood?
The probability that more than half of the 8 randomly chosen blood donors have Type A blood is approximately 0.2533 or 25.33%.
To calculate the probability that more than half of the 8 randomly chosen blood donors have Type A blood, we can use the binomial probability formula:
[tex]\mathrm{P(X > n/2) = \sum [ P(X = k) ]}[/tex]
where the sum is taken from k = (n/2 + 1) to k = n
In this case, n represents the number of trials (8 blood donors) and p is the probability that a single blood donor has Type A blood (0.40).
P(X = k) is the probability of getting exactly k donors with Type A blood, and it is given by the binomial probability formula:
[tex]\mathrm {P(X = k) = (n, k) \times p^k \times (1 - p)^{(n - k)}}[/tex]
where (n choose k) represents the number of combinations of n items taken k at a time, and it is given by:
[tex]\mathrm {(n, k) = \frac{n!}{(k! \times (n - k)!)}}[/tex]
Now, let's calculate the probability that more than half (i.e., 5 or more) of the donors have Type A blood:
[tex]\mathrm{P(X > 4) = P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8)}[/tex]
[tex]\mathrm {P(X = k) = (8, k) \times 0.40^k \times (1 - 0.40)^{(8 - k)}}[/tex]
[tex]\mathrm{P(X = 5)} = (8, 5) \times 0.40^5 \times (1 - 0.40)^{(8 - 5)}\\\\= 56 \times 0.01024 \times 0.343\\\\= 0.1961984[/tex]
[tex]\mathrm{P(X = 6)} = (8, 6) \times 0.40^6 \times (1 - 0.40)^{(8 - 6)}\\\\= 28 \times 0.004096 \times 0.36\\\\= 0.0516608[/tex]
[tex]\mathrm {P(X = 7)} = (8, 7) \times 0.40^7 \times (1 - 0.40)^{(8 - 7)}\\\\= 8 \times 0.0016384 \times 0.4\\\\= 0.0052224[/tex]
[tex]\mathrm {P(X = 8)} = (8, 8) \times 0.40^8 \times (1 - 0.40)^{(8 - 8)}\\\\= 1 \times 0.00065536 \times 0.4\\\\= 0.000262144[/tex]
Now, add all these probabilities together to get the final result:
[tex]\mathrm {P(X > 4)} = 0.1961984 + 0.0516608 + 0.0052224 + 0.000262144\\\\= 0.253343344[/tex]
Therefore, the probability that more than half of the 8 randomly chosen blood donors have Type A blood is approximately 0.2533 or 25.33%.

T(x)=70(.80)*+20 where x is the time in minutes and the T is the temperature in degree celsius . What is the initial temperature of the coffee?
Answer:
The initial temperature of the coffee was 90°C.
Step-by-step explanation:
The function representing the temperature of the coffee after x minutes is:
[tex]T(x)=70\cdot(0.80)^{x}+20[/tex]
T is the temperature in degree Celsius.
The initial temperature of the coffee will be at x = 0.
Compute the value of T (x) at x = 0 as follows:
[tex]T(x)=70\cdot(0.80)^{x}+20[/tex]
[tex]T(0)=70\cdot (0.80)^{0}+20[/tex]
[tex]=70\times 1+20\\=70+20\\=90[/tex]
Thus, the initial temperature of the coffee was 90°C.
2.In a large university 13.5% of the students take economics, 24.7% of the students take statistics and 11.7% take economics and statistics. The probability that a randomly selected student didn’t take economics but did take statistics is close toالقارئ الشامل (2/2 نقط
Answer:
The probability that a randomly selected student didn’t take economics but did take statistics is 13%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the event that a student offers Economics be E.
The event that a student does NOT offer Economics is E'.
Let the event that a student offers Statistics be S.
The event that a student does NOT offer Statistics be S'.
P(E) = 13.5% = 0.135
P(S) = 24.7% = 0.247
P(E n S) = 11.7% = 0.117
Find the probability that a randomly selected student didn’t take economics but did take statistics
This probability = P(E' n S)
Since E and E' are mutually exclusive events,
P(S) = P(E' n S) + P(E n S)
P(E' n S) = P(S) - P(E n S)
P(E' n S) = 0.247 - 0.117 = 0.13 = 13%

In a random sample of high school seniors, the proportion who use text messaging was 0.88. In a random sample of high school freshmen, this proportion was 0.68. Researchers found the difference in proportions to be statistically significant and obtained one of the following numbers for the p-value. Which is it?
a. 1.5
b. 0.02
c. 0.78
d. 0.30
Answer:
b. 0.02
Step-by-step explanation:
The smaller the p-value, the stronger the evidence that you should reject the null hypothesis. In this case, this will mean rejecting that the proportions are not significantly different.
Usually, a p-value is considered to be statistically significant when p ≤ 0.05.
From the answer options provided, alternative b. 0.02 is the only one that represents the difference in proportions to be statistically significant (there is only a 2% chance that the proportions are not significantly different).
Therefore, the answer is b. 0.02

Suppose ARB Bank is reviewing its service charges and interest payment policies on current accounts. Suppose further that ARB has found that the average daily balance on personal current accounts is GH¢350.00, with a standard deviation of GH¢160.00. In addition, the average daily balances have been found to follow a normal distribution;
What percentage of customers carries a balance of GH¢100 or lower?
What percentage of customers carries a balance of GH¢500 or lower?
What percentage of current account customers carries average daily balances exactly equal to GH¢500?
What percentage of customers maintains account balance between GH¢100 and GH¢500?
Answer:
5.94% of customers carries a balance of GH¢100 or lower.
82.64% of customers carries a balance of GH¢500 or lower.
0% of current account customers carries average daily balances exactly equal to GH¢500.
76.7% of customers maintains account balance between GH¢100 and GH¢500
Step-by-step explanation:
When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
In this question, we have that:
[tex]\mu = 350, \sigma = 160[/tex]
What percentage of customers carries a balance of GH¢100 or lower?
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 100. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{100 - 350}{160}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.56[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.56[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0594
5.94% of customers carries a balance of GH¢100 or lower.
What percentage of customers carries a balance of GH¢500 or lower?
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 500.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{500 - 350}{160}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.94[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.94[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.8264
82.64% of customers carries a balance of GH¢500 or lower.
What percentage of current account customers carries average daily balances exactly equal to GH¢500?
In the normal distribution, the probability of finding a value exactly equal to X is 0. So
0% of current account customers carries average daily balances exactly equal to GH¢500.
What percentage of customers maintains account balance between GH¢100 and GH¢500?
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 500 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 100.
From b), when X = 500, Z = 0.94 has a pvalue of 0.8264
From a), when X = 100, Z = -1.56 has a pvalue of 0.0594
0.8264 - 0.0594 = 0.767
76.7% of customers maintains account balance between GH¢100 and GH¢500
For a super soaker water gun, a pump handle is moved back and forth to build up pressure in the water reservoir. The water is released by pulling a trigger and shooting the water a significant distance. Assuming that you can create an absolute pressure of 8 atm in the reservoir:
a) What is the velocity at which the water leaves the gun?
b) If the water exits the gun through a hole with a radius of 1-mm, what is the volume rate of flow in m3/s?
c) If the water gun is fired horizontally and held 1.2 meters above the ground, where does the water hit the ground? Pressure 8 cm water
Answer:
a) The velocity at which the water leaves the gun = 37.66 m/s
b) The volume rate of flow = (1.183 × 10⁻⁴) m³/s
c) The water hits the ground 18.64 m from the point where the water gun was shot.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Using Bernoulli's equation, an equation that is based on the conservation of energy.
P₁ + ½ρv₁² + ρgh₁ = P₂ + ½ρv₂² + ρgh₂
The two levels we are considering is just inside the water reservoir and just outside it.
ρgh is an extension of potential energy and since the two levels are at the same height,
ρgh₁ = ρgh₂
Bernoulli's equation becomes
P₁ + ½ρv₁² = P₂ + ½ρv₂²
P₁ = Pressure inside the water reservoir = 8 atm = 8 × 101325 = 810,600 Pa
ρ = density of water = 1000 kg/m³
v₁ = velocity iof f water in the reservoir = 0 m/s
P₂ = Pressure outside the water reservoir = atmospheric pressure = 1 atm = 1 × 101325 = 101,325 Pa
v₂ = velocity outside the reservoir = ?
810,600 + 0 = 101,325 + 0.5×1000×v₂²
500v₂² = 810,600 - 101,325 = 709,275
v₂² = (709,275/500) = 1,418.55
v₂ = √(1418.55) = 37.66 m/s
b) Volumetric flowrate is given as
Q = Av
A = Cross sectional Area of the channel of flow = πr² = π×(0.001)² = 0.0000031416 m²
v = velocity = 37.66 m/s
Q = 0.0000031416 × 37.66 = 0.0001183123 m³/s = (1.183 × 10⁻⁴) m³/s
c) If the height of gun above the ground is 1.2 m. Where does the water hit the ground?
The range of trajectory motion is given as
R = vT
v = horizontal component of the velocity = 37.66 m/s
T = time of flight = ?
But time of flight is given as
T = √(2H/g) (Since the initial vertical component of the velocity = 0 m/s
H = 1.2 m
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²
T = √(2×1.2/9.8) = 0.495 s
Range = vT = 37.66 × 0.495 = 18.64 m
Hope this Helps!!!
Outline the procedure for finding probabilities of any given compound events.
Answer:
Explained below.
Step-by-step explanation:
A compound event is an event in which has possible outcomes more than one.
To determine the probability of compound events on has to compute the sum of the probabilities of all the individual events and, if required, remove any coinciding probabilities.
Examples of compound events are:
The events of roll a five using a 6-sided die .The number of favorable outcome is rolling a 5, is 1.
The total number of outcomes of rolling a die is 6.
Then the probability of rolling a 5 is 1/6.
The events of pulling a heart out of a standard deck of cardsThe number of favorable outcome of pulling a heart is 13.
The total number of outcomes is 52.
The probability of pulling a heart from a standard deck is 13/52 or 1/4.
Thus, the procedure is to compute the sum of the probabilities of all the individual events and, if required, remove any coinciding probabilities.

Decode the addition or subtraction problem (Change asterisks to digits, to make the operation correct.) 6*5* − *8*4=2856
Answer:
6750 - 3894 = 2856
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to make use of the arithmetic facts you know.
The least-significant asterisk must be 0, because the sum of 4 and 6 is 10.
The 10s asterisk must be 9,so that the sum 5 + 9 + 1 has a least-significant digit of 5.
The 100s asterisk must be 7, because that is the least-significant digit of the sum 8 + 8 + 1 = 17.
The 1000s asterisk must be 3, so that 2 + 3 + 1 = 6.
(The "1" in each of these sums is the carry from the sum of the digits with the next lower place value.)
So, the subtraction problem is ...
6750 - 3894 = 2856
_____
Comment on the solution method
For the most part, we worked this as an addition problem. The sum of the last two numbers must be equal to the first: 6570 = 3894 +2856. For some of us, addition facts are easier to work with than subtraction facts. The carry/borrow can be less confusing that way.

What is Pythagoras Theorem?If ABC is a triangle with AC as the hypotenuse and angle B with 90 degrees then we have:
[tex]|AC|^2 = |AB|^2 + |BC|^2[/tex]
where |AB| = length of line segment AB. (AB and BC are rest of the two sides of that triangle ABC, AC being the hypotenuse).
Consider the figure attached below.
The triangle ABC is a right angled triangle as one of its angle is of 90 degrees.
Thus, we can use Pythagoras theorem here to find the length of the diagonal line AC.
Since it is given that:
|AB| = 5 units = |BC|, thus, we get:
[tex]|AC|^2 = |AB|^2 + |BC|^2\\\\|AC| = \sqrt{5^2 + 5^2} = \sqrt{2 \times 5^2} = \sqrt{5^2} \times \sqrt{2} = 5\sqrt{2} \: \rm units[/tex]
We didn't took negative of root as length cannot be negative.
Thus, the length of the diagonal of the figure considered is given by: Option E: 5√2

Step-by-step explanation:
Step one
This problem bothers on the mensuration of solid shapes, a sphere.
We know that the volume of a sphere is expresses as
V= (4/3) πr³
Given that the volume of the sphere is

For this case we have this equation given:
[tex] y = 5x[/tex]
And we need to ee what happen if we increase the value of x by a factor of 2. So then for this case we can set up the equation like this:
[tex] y_f = 5(2x) = 10x[/tex]
And if we find the ratio between the two equations we got:
[tex] \frac{y_f}{y} =\frac{10x}{5x} =2[/tex]
So then if we increase the value of x by a factor of 2 then the value of y increase also by a factor of 2
The iron cube of side 42 com has a hole of diameter 14cm
drilled out. Calculate the volume of iron in the cube
and the total Surface area
of the Cube
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Total surface of the cube = 6a²
= 6 * 42 * 42
= 10584 cm²
Hole that is drilled out, will make a cylinder shape in the middle of the cube
Volume of iron in the cube = Volume of cube - volume of cylinder
Volume of cube = a³
= 42 * 42 * 42
= 74088 cm³
Cylinder:
r = 14/2 = 7 cm
h = sideof the cube = 42 cm
Volume = πr²h
[tex]=\frac{22}{7}*7*7*42\\\\=22*7*7*6[/tex]
= 6468 cm³
Volume of iron in the cube = Volume of cube - volume of cylinder
= 74088 - 6468
= 67620 cm³
a kangaroo and a wallaby are in a race. They have to get to a flagbole that is 100 meters away and back. For every 2 hops the kangaroo does, the wallaby does three but the kangaroo's jumps are 3 meters while the wallaby's are 2. Who gets there and back first (hint: it isnt a draw)
Answer:
im going to say a wallaby because they are smaller and lighter and if you think of the weight then less power is needed for a wallaby
idk lol XD
Step-by-step explanation:
El precio de un ordenador portátil ha aumentado un 25% y posteriormente fue rebajado un cierto porcentaje.Calcule que porcentaje de descuento habría que aplicar para que quede al precio original de antes del aumento. Porfa responder!!!
Answer:
Se requiere un 20 por ciento de descuento.
Step-by-step explanation:
(This exercise has been presented in Spanish and for that reason explanation will be held in the same language)
Sea [tex]p_{o}[/tex] el precio original del computador portatil, el nuevo precio es:
[tex]p_{1} =\left(\frac{100\,\% + 25\,\%}{100\,\%} \right)\cdot p_{o}[/tex]
[tex]p_{1} = 1.25\cdot p_{o}[/tex]
Si [tex]p_{2} = p_{o}[/tex], entonces el porcentaje requerido para recuperar el precio original es:
[tex]r = \left(1-\frac{p_{2}}{p_{1}} \right)\times 100\,\%[/tex]
[tex]r = \left(1-\frac{p_{o}}{1.25\cdot p_{o}} \right)\times 100\,\%[/tex]
[tex]r = \left(1-\frac{1}{1.25} \right)\times 100\,\%[/tex]
[tex]r = 20\,\%[/tex]
Se requiere un 20 por ciento de descuento.
